News bloopers happen each and every day but not usually of this kind of magnitude and certainly not by the esteemed BBC network. However, right in plain view a broadcaster for BBC had a “hands-on” and embarrassing TV moment where he got slapped after accidentally groping a woman who got in the live shot. In the middle of doing an interview Ben Brown was speaking with assistant political editor Norman Smith when a woman appeared in the live broadcast. It was a moment like any other on the news when someone wants to get a little airtime. But what happened

The International Olympic Committee recently announced its plan to offer a free, on-demand video service full of sports highlights once this year’s Summer Games conclude. The Olympics’ official governing body, however, will not be the only entity to offer video coverage of the quadrennial athletic competition. YouTube will serve up a full slate of coverage from Rio de Janeiro, including highlight packages from 60 countries and updates from 15 different content creators.
The list of broadcasters who have partnered with YouTube for the video site’s Olympics coverage include the UK’s BBC, Latin America’s America Movil, and Japan’s Nhk. Beyond the individual channels operated by these media companies, viewers will be able to access local highlights through Google search, where entering terms like “rio2016” will display relevant videos among the results.

Netflix has ordered a half-hour comedy series based on Harvey Comics' "Richie Rich", starring actor Jake Brennan ("Dark Skies") who also appeared in the "Fzzt" episode of Marvel's "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.":
"...to be produced by Awesomeness TV, the new Netflix half-hour comedy series, based on the 1980's Hanna-Barbera cartoon series, will debut in 2015, with 'Richie' having made a trillion dollars from inventing and selling a cool new green technology.
"After he moves into a decked out mansion and instantly starts living the most awesome life ever, the show will cover his adventures with his friends..."
Created in 1953, Richie didn't have his own title until 1960. Once he did, however, he quickly became Harvey's most popular character, eventually starring in over fifty separate titles.
Writers for the "Richie Rich" comic books included Sid Jacobson, Lennie Herman, Stan Kay and Ralph Newman. Richie Rich's most famous illustrator is Warren Kremer.

Andrew Hinderaker/The Wall Street Journal Ben Brown performs the ‘rhythm & bliss’ massage on Kim Wylie at bliss 49
At first listen, the strong drumming and beats of Heart’s “Barracuda” and Led Zepplin’s “When the Levee Breaks” don’t lend themselves to soothing relaxation. But bliss spa massage therapist Ben Brown is set to change that notion. Those songs, among roughly a dozen others, make up his “rhythm & bliss” rock playlist, the starting point for his 75-minute music based massage.

Those of us who live in major cities may have been fortunate enough, at one point or another, to happen upon a movie in the process of being filmed. The near-universal reaction is understandable: most people will whip out a camera and try to take a picture or shoot a short video. If you're lucky, you may get footage of an action scene or a major star. You might think that it is perfectly legal to film an event taking place in a public place in broad daylight. But after an innocuous video of the Transformers 3 shoot was abruptly pulled from Youtube, it is clear that according to Paramount Pictures' legal department, you are violating copyright. Ben Brown was a fan of Transformers 3, so when he saw the film being shot outside of an office building he was visiting, he knew what it was immediately. He used...

Two children have been forced to seek medical assistance after trying to copy Britain’s Got Talent hopeful Stevie Starr ‘The Regurgitator’.
Stevie stunned the Britain’s Got Talent judges on an earlier audition show, when he swallowed numbered coins and a billiard ball and then regurgitated them on demand and in order. He later claimed that he had learned the trick while trying to protect his pocket money in a children’s home.
Three-year-old Abi Busby’s was rushed to hospital last week after tring to emulate the act by swallowing a two pence coin.
Her dad told The Sun: “As the doctor was checking Abi he asked her why she had swallowed the coin. She told him ‘the magic man on TV with the yellow coat told me to do it’.

Transformers 3 director, Michael Bay has posted a message on the forums at his site, shootfortheedit.com stating that ‘The Twins’, Mudflap and Skids will not be back for the new installment of the Autobots vs. Decepticon franchise.
We’d like to believe him, but then along comes a report from Tflamb with pictures from LeftLaneNews that are apparently two Chevy Sparks with racing stripes that are in the twins colors, sporting Autobot center caps on the wheels and video shot from a window above the production where the eyewitness states,
“Michael Bay directs an effects sequence involving a tiny car being thrown down an alley way by the Autobot twins. Minutes before this happened, the twins zoomed through the alley and screeched to a halt… If only they could really transform!”
Ben Brown who took the video, verified that the cars in the photos below are the ones that he saw during the shoot.

"Transformers 3" has apparently kicked off principal photography. Two workers at NeighboorGoods, Ben Brown and mickipedia, who witnessed the shooting in Sherman Oaks, California on Monday, May 10 have posted videos they recorded from their office.
The two clips actually show the filming of the same scene in which a silver car is thrown down an alley before it bumps onto the garbages. Brown also wrote on his blog that he saw "Autobot 'twins' zooming around" the location and "apparently, one or both of them will transform and beat the crap out of this tiny little car."
None of the main cast such as Megan Fox and Shia Labeouf were seen during the shooting, but actress Kym Whitley claimed she joined the production that day. "Working on Transformers 3 today, a little nervous...always when starting a new project. I have said the Lords prayer 12 times," she tweeted. Her character is...
