Did Katharine McPhee look like she was having more fun on the final American Idol results show than ever before in the competition? Backstage on Wednesday night, she was still getting flower shipments (to add to the thousand roses that are still sitting in her dressing room). She took a few minutes to sit back, kick up her feet, and talk about why her destiny was not to win American Idol.
ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: You didn't look too shocked when Ryan announced Taylor won. Did you have a feeling that's how the show would end?
KATHARINE McPHEE: Did I know? I guess I had a feeling that he could probably take it home.
Especially because Taylor has been high up in the voting thing for the last couple of weeks. He'd never been in the bottom three. I think he's the only one who's never been in the bottom three. He did it. I wasn't in a panic. It wasn't like, ''I was staying up for four hours last night voting,'' like, ''Oh, I have to win American Idol!'' At the point I made top two, I felt like there were so many doors opening for me.
Plus you got the car.
Yeah, I got the car and the record deal.
And you don't have the label of ''American Idol winner'' permanently attached to your name. Losing to Taylor might end up being the best thing that ever happened to you.
Yeah, thank you. I'm starting to think that now too. Some years the runner-up hasn't done that well. But Clay has obviously shown that being the runner-up is just as great as being the American Idol.
Except, I have issues with his hair but that's another story entirely. Your song choices were somewhat controversial. How did you choose them?
''Black Horse and Cherry Tree,'' I chose that because I think I knew everyone was going to want me to sing that. Everyone was like, ''Oh, good, we wanted you to sing that.'' It's just a song that I think I could've put on an album or something like that. And also it's a fun song for me to let go. And then ''Somewhere Over the Rainbow'' was a hard decision for me. I had everybody who thinks they're everybody telling me what they think I should do. ''Don't sing it.'' ''Oh, it's too soon to sing that song.'' Blah blah blah. And then it ended up being the one thing Simon thought might save me, so I don't have any regrets. I'm glad I did it. I didn't win American Idol for a reason. I think I came in second place for a reason. It's not second-best; it's just as good.
It's what you do with it now that will shape your career. But when Simon predicted on Tuesday night that Taylor would win, weren't you bummed?
No, I didn't get mad at all. I wasn't really hurt. It was just one of those things when it's like, Okay, someone's gotta win. And then you think, Well, maybe I can still win. I don't think I was in this... I don't think I was really desperate to win American Idol. I was just grateful to be in the top two, to be honest.
Your single, ''My Destiny,'' was pretty widely panned by the judges and fans. Did you like it?
I liked it when I heard it, but it's a lot different when you hear it produced. I think people will like it when they hear it produced, with the echo behind it, just a lot of things they put with the song that you don't get to hear live. And also, my voice was not doing good. I sang it as best I could.
In the theater you sounded great, but I watched the show back on TV and you could hear your voice was strained.
Yeah, I was losing my voice by the dress rehearsal. I had to have a shot of cortisone from my doctor. He came in and definitely saved my day.
Losing your voice and then your ear piece not working Tuesday night before ''Somewhere Over the Rainbow'' so much drama! And then tonight you seemed like you were so relaxed and so ready to finally have fun.
I slept pretty well last night. I wasn't in this ''Oh my gosh, I have to win American Idol'' mode. Tonight I had so much fun.
Did you ask producers to hook you up with a Meat Loaf duet?
They just came to me. It wasn't like it was my choice. They just said, Okay, you'll be singing with so-and-so.
I haven't heard the guy in a while.
I didn't even know who he was. But now I do. He was like really big in the '70s, right?
Well, and more recently than that. You must know ''Paradise by the Dashboard Light,'' right?
I don't.
Okay, let's go to a musical era you'll remember. When you and Taylor sang ''(I've Had) The Time of My Life,'' did you sort of want to pay homage to the Dirty Dancing theme song and do ''the lift''?
Yes! We wanted to! We thought there was going to be a commercial break before the finale for the results. I was supposed to be wearing a different dress, and we wanted to do a spin and a dip at the end, but not with that dress.
So what's next for you? Free time? Spa days?
No, we're going to New York and then we have the tour. It's going to be busy, busy, busy from now on.

Hi all,
I'm looking for something that is medium height or tall for shade. I've had a hard time finding such a thing. I'd like something that is also fairly full. Any ideas? |
Follow-Up Postings:
Um... I meant plants, not trees. Wasn't paying attention! |
Red buckeye? It's a small tree that does great in shade and has 10" flower spikes. |
That's a good idea. Thanks! |
Firespike is something else that comes to mind. Mine returned even after last winter's hard freezes. Its pretty foliage is nice even when not blooming. |
Here is a link that might be useful: About Firespike plants on Google...
I have Fireman's cap/Coral bean tree in the shade where it blooms in the spring and has nice foliage the rest of the year. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Coral bean tree ...
I love those suggestions! I think I am going to look into Coral bean immediately. I'm trying to stay away from things that need extra water, but I am not always successful in that. Hence, the new hydrangeas in my yard. :-> Thanks, everyone! I really appreciate it. |

Which cell salt would you take for a fungal infection under the fingernail, I got it while staying in a humid area for 2 months the GP said this happened a lot.I was hoping someone could recommend one of the salts as I have tried lots of things and nothing helps. |

Use Tea Tree Oil. Paint the nail with it every time you wash your hands. It will take a while as the new nail has to grow all the way out. It will probably be 2-3 months. The problem that most people have with fungal nail infections is that they stop treatment too soon. The old diseased nail MUST be completly grown out. Have you seen a doctor? Tea Tree Oil will probably work, but he/she could give you medications that would do a better job. |

Greg Merson has won the 2012 WSOP Main Event to claim poker's biggest prize of just over $8.5 million.
The world of poker has a new Main Event champion now that Maryland native Greg Merson has emerged the winner.
The Main Event began back in July with nearly 7,000 entries that were pared down to just nine players after two weeks of play.
Those final nine returned to Las Vegas in late October to see which one would become the next superstar of the poker world.
The first day of action would see them play down to three players, with that trio returning the next day to wrap things up. Jesse Sylvia was the chip leader and odds-on favorite to win but Merson was the pick of many pros to win it all.
Merson had already had a great summer of poker, winning a preliminary WSOP event for a payday of over $1 million and had momentum on his side.
Earlier in the Main Event he lost a huge hand to leave him with just a few chips, but mounted a huge comeback to make the final table.
The first day of final table play featured no huge shocks, with three players left -- Merson, Sylvia, and 21 year-old Jacob Balsiger -- after about eight hours of play, giving the final three plenty of time to rest up for the big day.
And it was a good thing they rested up, as three-handed play turned into an epic battle that would last until the wee hours of the morning.
The trio would swap the chip lead multiple times and play for over 11 hours before Merson won, setting a record for the longest mani Event final table ever and the most number of hands played.
Merson would finally take control, knocking out Balsiger first and then relatively quickly finishing off Sylvia.
While Balsiger and Sylvia both got lucky several times to avoid being knocked out, Merson's win was well-deserved as he stayed in control and shrugged off all the bad luck.
Merson's win was worth a whopping $8,531,853, while Sylvia won $5,295,149 for finishing second and Balsiger collected $3,797,558 for his third-place finish.

CHICAGO, December 21, 2012 ― It was just one sorrow-filled week ago that a crazed gunman broke into an elementary school and killed 26 people, including 20 children. The tragedy that continues to unfold in
But the exploitation of this tragedy has made the pointless slaughter of these innocent people even worse.
Earlier this week, the Newtown Bee implored journalists to "stay away from the victims."
In a letter to the New England Newspaper and Press Association, Bee Associate Editor John Voket complained about "reporters and media crews invading the yards and space of grieving survivors, school staff and responders."
Residents complained that media were attending funerals and posted "no media" signs around; they shouldn't have to.
Scam artists have set up bogus contribution funds for the victims. Media personalities jockey for position, demanding change – whatever that means – to boost their ratings. This week, there were more headlines for gun control than tributes to
Last Friday, politicians and members of the media immediately began pointing fingers at the NRA, which finally broke its silence at a press conference this morning with a call to arm teachers and schools across the country.
On Monday, Rahm Emanuel wasted no time calling for a national assault weapons ban – just two days after the massacre. Emanuel has said it before and meant it: "You never want a serious crisis to go to waste."
But Emanuel is also a man without ideas. Powerlessly, he presides over a city with a murder rate that has shocked the nation: close to 500 murders in 2012 alone. Has the city's ban on carrying concealed weapons stopped gang members from shooting rival gang bangers and innocent children caught in their crosshairs every weekend?
Following the national trend,
The gun ban did nothing.
The problem is that criminals just aren't that concerned about the law. Only law-abiding citizens are.
CNN's Piers Morgan made headlines this week when he scolded Americans for their guns. The former TV host of "
But the
Leave it to a cable TV host, especially a former talent judge, to intentionally mislead his audience.
As Americans, we have a different cultural and historical experience than the
Americans accept violence because violent messages in culture and entertainment have become acceptable.
So why are we so surprised when the weakest among us snap? That the mentally ill are as desensitized to the violence our so casually culture accepts and creates?
If politicians and the media want to talk about the real causes of violence and premature death in this country, I am ready for that discussion.
But I want to know a few things first.
I want to know how government will guarantee that the mentally ill do not harm themselves or others. I want to know how President Obama will eliminate video games and the TV shows and movies that promote an acceptable culture of violence.
There are other causes of tragic premature death as well:
President Obama could stop all this too: He could prohibit surgeons and physicians with a high medical error rate from practicing; he could impose speed controls on car makers; he could install breathalyzers in every automobile; and he could outlaw obesity and the food makers who contribute to it with their products.
If government can control the people, they reason, they might be able to control death. If government can eliminate freedom, they tell us death may be preventable.
The centralized planners want us to think they can control death through legislation. The reality is: They can't. Human nature cannot be predicted or controlled. Killer Adam Lanza tried to purchase a rifle from a gun store just days before the shooting but was refused. He still found a way to kill.
How do you prevent – I mean, truly prevent – people from using guns to kill people? Government would have to round up every gun in every
And only government could protect us then. But who would protect people from the government?
This is the kind of Huxley-esque Brave New World pipe dream that some still have. People who live in the real world understand this is not attainable or even desirable.
Politicians and media have demonized advocates of the Second Amendment in wake of this horrific tragedy. But finding balanced solutions to preventing violence and death is a complex issue and should be dealt with by reasonable people, not those trying to score political points.

Nature's healing intelligence is all around us. In the beehive there is a special magic where an intricate network can teach us about living with nature. The video "A day with Jono" follows one of our amazing beekeepers from dawn to dusk allowing us to see into the world of a beekeeper.
Manuka honey is one nature's special gifts. Sourced from some of New Zealand's most pure and remote locations it is renowned for its unique flavour and special activity and in the last decade the medical industry has started to take the possible health benefits of Manuka Honey more seriously. It is valued by many for its contribution to a healthy diet and recognised worldwide for its unique properties not found in ordinary honey. In early summer the bees forage in the delicate Manuka (Leptospermum scoparium) flowers. It's a busy start to the honey season.

Free Content AND Backlinks For Your WordPress Blogs!
I came across a cool WordPress plugin from Bill Platt over at The Phantom Writers, one of the premier content distribution services used by article marketers.
What this tool does is enable you to take content from TPW and at the same time they will build backlinks to the posts from The Phantom Writers
I wrote in much more detail about this tool here: Backlink Magnet.
I see this a a neat complement to tools such as Article Marketing Automation from Marc and Dan at PLRPro not a replacement for it, after all, we can all use more decent content and backlinks, right?

I bought a custom nubuck suede loveseat that had been used in a designer house a few years ago. I have pets and kids and against my better judgment I followed my heart and took it home.
For a couple years I successfully kept it covered - never actually seeing the beautiful leather. THen I got less and less careful and finally the cover was gone altogether. As one would expect the kids and dogs took a toll. I am about to ahve it recovered to use in our new home but DH loves the suede and doesn't believe it cannot be restored. THis is my last ditch attempt to see if there is any product that can clean nubuck and restore the nap. Any ideas? |

Colleen lace sweatshirt is serious fun
What: Colleen lace sweatshirt
Where: BCBG Max Azria (various locations)
Price Tag: $154
Why: Opposites always attract in fashion, and this party-in-the-front-fitness-in-the-back sweatshirt by BCBG Max Azria is no exception. The raglan sleeves, cropped length, and heather grey jersey have the gym written all over them, but the black lace front with nude underlay is definitely flirty. I love that lace can add pretty to any garment and transform your look. Rock it with red skinny jeans, a fuzzy tuque, and suede ankle boots to the pub or with silk shorts, black nylons, and pumps to an event. The front is sheer so layer with a tank or a bright bra. I guess sweaty can be sexy after all!

New York and LA are the first places people move to when trying to become professional actors. After making many sacrifices, people leave disappointed, or stay with the hopes of one day making the "big break". For most people, however, the road to Hollywood is too long, and their dreams are often abandoned. This doesn't always have to be the case, however, as the world gets smaller due to the advancements in networking and communication...
Another well-known fact in the industry is that the people you see in movies and on TV are all very well connected. A lot of this is true, as we all hear of stories about stars knowing the right people and catching that "lucky" break. Even if your brother's friend's sister's hairdresser's uncle lives in NY and his neighbor works in the company that caters for "Guiding Light", you still probably won't be getting any auditions soon.
Lastly, one of the biggest setbacks that struggling actors (even models, musicians, and TV personalities) face is location. This is perceived as being just as true in this sense as it is in real estate. If you don't live in either Los Angeles or New York City, your chances are diminished considerably, simply because 85% of all film and TV casting is performed in LA, 10% in NYC, and 5% elsewhere.
InterFACE is a completely new concept to the world of acting. If you have the face, the look, the talent, and the drive, none of the other complications will deter you...
With the incredibly easy to use help of InterFACE, you can get as close to your dreams as you've imagined, without the sacrifices that keep many people from achieving. You can create your own profile, with headshots and your resume professionally done, and agencies,, directors and producers all have access to it—from their own offices in LA, NY, and the other 5% elsewhere.
You can still hold on to your "day job" and get the exposure necessary to land the profession of your dreams. InterFACE makes your face closer than you would even get if you moved to the cities, as the decision makers are using the database much more frequently than they are seeing unsigned actors. It is still possible to pursue other ventures in your life, such as school, college, and making a living while you wait to take the stage.
For those without even the possibility of getting connected from their hometowns, or even those in NY/LA without any leads into the business, InterFACE works for you too. The second you create your profile, you are immediately networked with hundreds of Industry Professionals looking for new talent. Your name will be seen by the ones you already know, and the possibilities are truly endless.
By simply visiting http://www.interfacetalent.com , you will see how simple it now is to make your dreams come true, without moving, wasting thousands of dollars, or sacrificing important parts of your life.
There are a lot of ways for an aspiring model to get exposure. What is difficult for some however, is getting seen from where they are. Not everyone has the ability to visit agencies and meet people, and this does not mean that the opportunities are not still available...
The newest resource to the modeling industry is right in front of you. InterFACE™, the revolutionary talent marketing company, has brought even more advancements to this trendsetting and exciting industry. InterFACE Pages™ is an easy to use database for aspiring models and the industry professionals who want to represent them. With the options of showcasing a talent profile, including high resolution headshots, as well as composite cards and demo reels, agents and casting directors can search and scout for talent personally and safely.
The safety of its clientele is of utmost priority at InterFACE, and the InterFACE Pages™ are extremely secure, and a talent's profile is only viewable by qualified professionals. Combined with InterFACE's insight and knowledge of the business, every model or talent with a profile on InterFACE Pages™ is given the best possible opportunities and skills—even before he or she meets with any agencies.
In addition to this unique and creative approach to talent discovery, InterFACE™ is renowned within the business for its dedication and professionalism in an industry that relies on such things. With many positive relationships and successes coming from the talent marketing company, it is easy to see why so many other professionals in the fashion and modeling worlds are browsing the InterFACE Pages™ with complete confidence and excitement. Visit them now at http://www.InterFACEpages.com.
The faces that have become familiar to millions of us: models, actors, and TV personalities had to break into the business somehow. Even the people behind the voices, instruments, and sounds topping the charts got their start by being seen by someone who could make it happen. The entertainment industry is the hardest to get into, with the odds against you, even those with immense talent...
There are many different avenues one can go down to become successful in the entertainment industry. It is a constant quest for some, sacrificing money, relationships, and pride for one goal. Every person who has been able to make themselves known, at any cost, will tell you the same secret: exposure.
With technology being as advanced as it is today, it is now easier than ever for aspiring talent to get the recognition they deserve. InterFACE™ is a new company with as much will and dedication as you to get the exposure you want. For aspiring models, actors, singers and dancers, this is the best way to maximize your opportunities in the industry.
With InterFACE, the innovative approach is simple and effective: create a talent profile that will be seen exclusively by agencies, casting directors, managers, and music producers from all over the world. The profile you provide them has high resolution pictures, pristine sound quality demos, and/or videos that show off your gifts. Networking is a huge part of the industry, and InterFACE has revolutionized the way talent and agents communicate.
There was a time when you had to know someone in order to get even an audition or a "go-see". Now, with impressive tools such as InterFACE, the desired and necessary exposure is attainable, and it definitely sees results. Without the right tools and connections, going right to a talent agency can be nearly impossible. With InterFACE™, you can begin to get the exposure necessary to be requested directly by those agencies.
You could still find the lucky break that has become somewhat of a myth to the industry. Many people spend years of their lives vying for the rights to say that they are professional entertainers, and the number of those who "make it" is few and far between. For many, the chance to get your talent recognized, is worth trying anything, and with this new advancement in the entertainment business, you can see quick results, feedback, and more importantly: experience.
Aside from phenomena such as "American Idol" and other realty shows making .0001% of contestants into stars, the music business is about finding someone to believe in you. There are plenty of people out there who will tell aspiring singers, musicians, and songwriters anything they want to hear, with promises of becoming "The Next Big Thing..."
What you really need however, is that one break. All the kind words and good intentions will not get anyone a record deal. It sounds much easier to get, and for a long time, it has been. Record execs and agents are bombarded with a flood of demos every day, and don't have time to listen to everything that comes their ways. Maybe you yourself have submitted tapes, CD's, and other discs to companies, agents, or even radio stations with the hope that someone will listen. This is how the business has been for a long time.
But the music industry is changing.
Now, the entire world of entertainment has been revolutionized. With the help of modern technology, the unknowns—those often spending years trying to make it (before abandoning it, more often than not) now have a real chance. InterFACE™ is a pioneering way that models, actors, TV personalities, and musicians are discovered.
This interactive tool give all users—agents, managers, directors, writers, stylists, etc, and you—the talent, the ability to explore profiles, listen to demos, and get yourself heard. By being part of this dynamic advancement in the entertainment industry, you will reap the benefits of having your talent available to hundreds of Industry Professionals—securing a network for yourself, without sacrifice. When applied as a medium for connecting those who sign the contracts with those who write them, this is a win-win situation. As long as you have the determination and the talent, you will be heard.
In what is sure to sweep the industry by storm, InterFACE is being used by countless decision makers in all fields. Generating buzz not only for InterFACE™ itself, but the talents it is showcasing as well. With the help of this useful program, the right person will hear your voice, listen to your songs, and feel your music. With so many risks out there against aspiring musicians, it's comforting to know that you will not be doing this the "old fashioned way" that has crushed so many dreams.
This could be the start of your "Big Break".
In a word, yes. Some of the biggest names in the entertainment industry got their start by being noticed via a demo, a promo reel, or a headshot. What sets some apart, however, is how they're done, where they're sent, and by whom...
Record executives are constantly being thrown tapes, discs, and anything else listenable, and naturally, they don't have the time to listen to everything completely. When an executive or agent starts to listen, if the quality is poor, the talent will sound poor. While there may be a substantial amount of talent there, he or she will never hear it if they're bothered by low sound, background noise, or any other thing stopping their ears from hearing what you can really do. If you meet the music producer, agent, or manager in person and aren't looking like you have "It," chances are you will be dismissed immediately.
With the help of InterFACE™, everyone has a real chance at being seen and/or heard. You may have a truly stellar voice, but if they are not seeing the "total package," InterFACE can help bring it out for you. Marketing your talent in addition to helping you get a pristine demo/mp3 is a top priority at InterFACE. With the knowledge that only over a decade of experience in the business can produce, the teams of experts on hand are able to recognize exactly what the talent can do to make them noticed.
Most often you only get one chance, and by choosing InterFACE™ as your vehicle to that exposure, you're close than ever.
One of the most popular goals is to be a professional entertainer. It may seem like a ridiculous and unrealistic goal to some, but it can be a real future...
When one decides to pursue the entertainment industry as a singer, dancer, actor, or model, they are aware of the difficult road ahead of them. It is important to have people already "in the know" on your side helping you, but many people don't. There is a lot of wasted talent that goes forever unnoticed, either because he or she doesn't have the ambition, drive, or resources to make them known.
InterFACE™ is a company that is devoted to giving that talent a chance at the spotlight. With so many people throwing themselves out into the industry without the appropriate knowledge and preparations, it is no surprise that they don't "have what it takes." Because most people don't—it's something that is attained.
The professionals at InterFACE™ are here for all aspiring entertainers, helping them get the contacts and experience in front of the camera. Whether it is in a modeling shoot, a promotional reel, or a demo, industry professionals can hear and see talent brought to them by one of the most respected names in the business. InterFACE will get you in situated with the right people to help bring out the "It Factor," and help you see that everyone "has what it takes."
You do not necessarily have to participate in your schools drama department to get into theatre. If you feel excited about your schools program then by all means try out for a play there, the more experience you have, the better you get. Then when the "real" opportunities come along you will be prepared. But you can get that experience in school or out. Just by participating in your school's play however, will not get you the "break" you're looking for. InterFACE™ has worked and continues to work with children in the entertainment business, knowing the ins and outs of balancing school with modeling and acting opportunities...
Just know that it is very important for an actor to get experience somewhere. Actors never stop learning whether they are in school or not. Don't expect it to fall into your lap. Ambition and dedication pay off, and having people supporting you is important. InterFACE™ is dedicated to marketing aspiring actors, models, and other artists to the entertainment industry, with safety and professionalism.
Visit InterFACE™ online at http://www.interfacetalent.com to learn more about this innovative and knowledgeable staff of people eager to help you and your child break into the world of entertainment.
What is a common dream for some, becoming an actor is more realistic than you might think. There are plenty of people who have aspirations of being in the next "blockbuster" or starring in a sitcom or even Broadway Play, but have no idea how to begin. There are easy ways however, to ensure that your face is seen by those that matter, and that your talents are never wasted...
InterFACE™ is an inclusive company devoted to bringing new talent into the books and memories of agencies, managers, directors, and producers. From the most preliminary steps onward, InterFACE is there to see you networking with the right people. Once you start your journey into acting with InterFACE™ with your acting potential realized, followed by your necessary headshots taken, Hollywood or Broadway are right in the horizon.
Taken from its website, http://www.interfacetalent.com/creative.htm, the intricate and innovative system created by InterFACE™ "has also revolutionized the way actors are promoted to the industry by creating promo reels, which are videotaped monologues showcasing the new actor's range of ability." This can be uploaded to the revolutionary tool, InterFACE Pages™, which is an increasingly popular and user-friendly tool where talent is marketed specifically to industry insiders, giving optimal exposure.
While there are other ways of being "discovered", and longer ways of getting the same amount of contact that InterFACE™ provides, this is the best and easiest route. The aspirations of an actor or actress may seem far-fetched, but they certainly are attainable.
Hard work, dedication, and of course, talent, are all important attributes required of those who wish to act professionally. What must be acquired, however, is the open door. The only way for that door to swing open, is with the proper connection...
Many people have wanted to know how they can get into acting.. They know that beyond commercial print, it can be really tough to get into modeling. So they choose to step into the broader acting field. InterFACE™ is there to help you make the transition from a model to an actor, or just pursue the entertainment industry from the beginning.
Many actors and actresses get into acting by getting involved in theatre, dramas, plays and stage productions. Many actors and actresses also get into acting through networking and making connections. Having great headshots are often the first ways talent scouts and agents will notice you, and often the talent is seen next.
Having InterFACE™ on your team is a great way to make those connections necessary for starting your career as an actor. Since you already posses the talent and the drive, let InterFACE lead you to your connections.
One you feel as if you've "made it," you realize that there are about 200 other people vying for the same single opportunity you are. And you are looking at 200 full portfolios, while your hands are empty...
The life of a professional model is tough, and a lot of women/men who think they have what it takes fail. Some relocate from their hometowns only to return mere weeks later, while some lucky ones are able to "get by". There are many ways to avoid the difficulties that plague future models, if you know the right things, and people.
InterFACE™ is where you go to be prepared for the nerve-wracking and potentially career-crashing first "go-see" or interview—although many people don't even get that opportunity without very necessary materials.
If well-established models up against hundreds other for one chance, imagine what the odds are for someone with no experience whatsoever. It's almost impossible. Almost.
While not everyone in the world has what it takes to become a professional model, those with the talent and ambition, have a chance if they're prepared. InterFACE™ is the first place to seek assistance, with specialists evaluating your assets to the industry, creating realistic goals (both short and long-term), and getting you directly into the hands of skilled stylists, make-up artists, and trained photographers to get you the most necessary of your process: marketing tools.
You can then garner the exposure required of all models. This way, you will have something to show agents and those in the business when you enter a room full of models with just as much drive as you… and fill up your own portfolio book, finally "making it."
Praised as a "Great idea" and "Genius!" by some of the world's most famous modeling agencies, InterFACE™ has taken the industry by storm...
With the world of modeling being as cutthroat as it is, finding trustworthy people is hard, let alone ones that actually deliver results that hopefuls and agents alike want. InterFACE™ is an innovative idea in the world of fashion, closing the gap between talent and agents, in addition to preparing models for their "discovery" and setting their careers on track.
As Pamela Phillips Oland, Co-Owner of Topa Productions, attested:
With InterFACE's™ team of skilled stylists, from make-up and hair to photography and lighting specialists, aspiring models now have a chance they never would get. "I don't know how I have been working without it. Very promising" raves Stanley Kaplan, owner of Stanley Kaplan Talent Agency. The industry will never be the same.
"Great idea. The sooner you expand the better! "says PGK Men head Phillip Kearney, who is repeated by many others inside the business, such as 2morrow Model President, Hakan Baukan.
Since it's conception, InterFACE™ has changed the way talent is discovered, and it only gets better and more creative. Bringing new faces to runway scouts, agents, and stylists, the future of modeling is InterFACE.
The entire entertainment industry relies on its talent. No matter what the skill, whether it be beauty or creativity, talent is necessary. The industry is constantly changing, and the networks surrounding it are expanding. With a revolving door being the only entrance (and often the immediate exit) to the business, industry professionals are regularly looking for new faces, voices, and personalities to be the next "Big Thing". There will always be the "lucky breaks" that get into the business by chance, but most talent must aggressively pursue industry professionals-agents, managers, casting directors, and music producers-. But what is the most effective way to get noticed?...
In a business based on who you know and groundbreaking ideas, InterFACE™ has it covered.
Known world-wide as a premier place for models, actors, and musicians, InterFACE™ is a new and important way to link industry professionals and prospective talent.

With the entire entertainment industry investing in the InterFACE™, you may have already heard of it. Many people already in "the biz" have used InterFACE to pursue the entertainment industry, and it has become a reliable, trustworthy, and innovative part of the business...
With years of industry experience, the team that makes InterFACE™ a staple in the world of entertainment is dedicated to its goal. There are few places in the industry with as much dedication and commitment as you have to becoming a success with your talent. Using the knowledge and skills acquired from experience, InterFACE™ will take your talent and market it, beginning with developing your marketing tools whether it be a composite card, demo, promo reel, or all three.
From the high quality marketing tools InterFACE develops for you, we will promote you to the industry professionals who can jumpstart your career.

Since InterFACE™ creates a marketing package for you, agents, managers, casting directors, and music producers have a more presentable way to view you and your talent than ever before. For those looking to start their pursuit of the industry right, the knowledge that you worked with InterFACE™ may not be the first thing industry professionals will see of you, but it is one of the most important.
Starting out in the entertainment industry, there are a few things you should know about. Experience is not the only thing that will further and develop your talents—in fact, it's not even the first. Before you start the pursuit of any modeling, acting, or singing endeavor, visit InterFACE™. Even closer, visit the InterFACE Pages™...
InterFACE Pages™ is designed with every talent and person in mind. With the ability and capabilities for industry professionals, including agents, casting directors and music producers to see a potential client's profile, the scouting and discovery of talent has moved into a new millennium.
Since the entertainment business thrives on its next new thing, face, and idea, InterFACE™ has been at the forefront of it all since its conception.

If you are interested in becoming the next member of the entertainment world, this is the only place to look. Success is waiting for you, right in front of your eyes—if you let yourself be known to the agencies currently browsing the InterFACE Pages™, it could happen sooner than you thought.
Failure and talent is not uncommon in the entertainment industry, unfortunately. There are millions of people with copious amounts of talent that will never be acknowledged, seen, or heard by the public, simply because they never had the chance...
Often stemming from this, we hear the familiar notion of "it's who you know" that enables even the semi-talented successful careers in entertainment. With much media attention being brought to the rising careers of the well-associated, it isn't surprising to learn that even the most famous names and faces in the world were once unknowns, with no famous relatives or close-ties. So how did they get their feet in the door?
In all avenues of the business, there are those willing to give an aspiring actor/musician/model a chance, and for every one, there are 1,000 aspirants. Many established in their fields will tell you that making this connection was the exact "big break" needed. It may seem impossible for those not in NY or LA to find any sort of link with anyone in entertainment, but there are ways. InterFACE™ is one.
Catering to everyone from aspiring models with no experience to musicians who have been playing professionally for years without that "break," InterFACE™ is a network bringing talent and industry professionals directly connected. By first getting in contact with InterFACE, your first connection is already established. After you take the necessary steps provided by InterFACE™ to launch your career, your face or talent will be accessible by those "in the know" safely, creating your very first connections with the entertainment industry.

Many people who even attempt to make it in the entertainment industry do not have the materials and knowledge that you gain when working with InterFACE.

Marketing yourself is one of the most overlooked steps to breaking into the modeling industry. While many people trying to get into acting and singing/dancing are already aware of this important part of "the biz," often models are not...
In today's crazy world of entertainment, everybody needs to find his or her niche. Regardless of talent or beauty, the important professionals of the industry want to know that you will be an asset. From this, your marketability is born.
When men and women decide to pursue careers in modeling, many simply send amateur photos or poorly done headshots to agencies in New York, hoping to be discovered. Rarely does this work. What InterFACE™ does however, will work.
When you first begin working with InterFACE™, professionals already in the business will attest your talent, and start you on the way of becoming a model. By evaluating your goals and expectations, you can begin the process of building a real marketing package, which will be recognized by talent agents, scouts, and industry insiders who go by a "first impression" system—rarely do they give "second chances".
InterFACE™ is not an agency itself, but is a very necessary part of becoming noticed by one. By developing your marketing tools industry professionals can see the marketability that InterFACE™ always believed you had.

Everyone, no matter how far they are from the couture houses of New York, Paris, and Milan, is a part of the fashion industry. It plays a part in all our lives, whether we care about it or not. It is a business of the world's elite, and it can be intimidating to those trying to infiltrate it...
There are many different careers inside the world of fashion. From models to costume designers and stylists, each person is important to the industry as a whole. Modeling is often seen as the most glamorous, and the most coveted. With photo shoots in exotic locales, the recognition of millions, and of course, the luxurious clothing and perks, there are few professions like a model's.
Since most of the high fashion agencies in the United States are located in New York, Miami, or LA, many living in other states or countries with the potential to become world-famous models never even attempt. Plenty of beautiful people think too much time and money will be wasted in the effort to even visit these cities, with no promises or guarantees of anything. And there once was a time when their pessimism would have been right.
But time has changed. The world is getting smaller in the virtual sense, and the advancements in technology now make it easier than ever to simultaneously interact with people from all over the planet. This has touched businesses in all different parts of life, and fashion production is no exception. For someone looking to get into modeling, the internet can be a useful tool in establishing networks, contacts, and real opportunities.
InterFACE™ is a new and pioneering approach to a future models "discovery". Now, from wherever you are, you can let your face be seen by the execs, agents, casting directors, and managers that are important to the business. A model's opportunities rely heavily on her initial pictures, and the necessary "break" into print and runway is based on getting yourself out there, regardless of how.
By working with InterFACE, you can let hundreds of the important Industry Professionals see who you are, and get that "jump start" that everyone dreams about. You can update your photos and information, regardless of where you are in the world, as remote and distant from NY as you can imagine. With high end modeling agencies working directly with InterFACE to find new talent, you can increase your exposure with them considerably.
InterFACE isn't just about getting you exposure—it works both ways. Industry professionals are getting their businesses the faces, bodies, and personalities of people they normally never would have gotten the chance to see. In return, they are guaranteed to get their own names out there, able to gain more clients and increase revenue.
Today, music is one of the biggest entertainment industries in the world. Unlike many other careers in the entertainment fields, musicians face obstacles unknown to models and actors...
First of all, customers' demands and tastes are higher and more diversified than ever. Second, the number of people and companies working in this field are increasing at such a dizzy speed that it creates a very large pool of tough competition, and of course, to survive, they have to be unique and distinguished. With this all in mind, it is increasingly difficult for an aspiring singer or musician to just "jump" or "land" into this immense pool. It is getting easier to drown.
What those trying to make it in the entertainment industry don't know most often is the most basic: how to begin. Performing and sending home-made demos have all worked for those we know in the past, but the odds are higher than realized.
First of all, ones marketability is more important to industry professionals than you may think, with talent of course being the focus of your ability for success, they (both industry pros and the public) want the "whole package." With the help of InterFACE™, this process can be advantageous and exposure to managers and music producers can be truly attainable.
Demos and professional photos are incredibly important marketing tools. Having these done properly is the most important thing you can do if you're serious about becoming a professional musician. Aside from the "lucky breaks" that we seldom hear about, anyone in the "biz" will tell you that this introduction to the industry is integral to being heard by the industry professionals capable of making contracts and getting you signed.
It is vital that those trying to get into the biggest entertainment industry in the world don't simply take one "big" try and give up. There are millions of opportunities out there waiting to be taken advantage of, and if you have the will and talent, InterFACE™ can help you start to make the "dive" into music a real possibility.
The entertainment industry is one of the biggest in the world. With billions of dollars being spent on everything from concert tickets to apparel and merchandise emblazoned with a band or actor's name, there are a myriad of ways to market talent to audiences...
With the unyielding presence of MySpace and YouTube, it was only a matter of time before executives and industry insiders took advantage of the sudden surge technology could provide them. While not only does any sort of exposure or publicity help already established careers, but it can help start up new talent.
If you are an aspiring singer, dancer, actor, or model, you want yourself to be known. You want to be seen by the public, and in order to get that far, you at first need to be seen by those already inside the industry. With this breadth of new technology and the instant accessibility of the internet, companies like well-established InterFACE™ have taken notice.
The constantly increased usage of MySpace, YouTube, and similar sites have increased user content, making the pool of hopefuls using them as ways to get their "break" that much more difficult. What InterFACE™ has done, however, is groundbreaking in the industry. By creating InterFACEpages.com, a safe and user-friendly database of talent profiles containing online composite cards, promo reels, demos, and mp3s, the important exposure is granted, with professionalism and the marketability that industry insiders notice.
InterFACE™ is a true way to set aspiring entertainers apart from those who make amateur photos, videos, and demos, wondering why they never get a real chance. When a talent agent or manager sees a quality reel of an actor showing off his or her craft, or a high resolution photo of a stunning model, the odds are much more in their favor. Since exposure is so important, InterFACE™ is reliable because it is trusted by those who you want to see your talent and remember you. Unlike YouTube and other similar sites, InterFACE will exclusively show your marketing package to legitimate agencies and managers, casting directors, and music producers, so you can be assured of safety and a most favorable audience—that is, before the public one.

- 1 tablespoon(s) extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 celery root (celeriac; about 2 pounds) , peeled and chopped (see Tip)
- 1 pound(s) russet potatoes, peeled and chopped
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 1 stalk(s) celery, chopped

- 1/4 teaspoon(s) ground white pepper
- 1/2 cup(s) lovage (see Note) or celery leaves, plus a few extra for garnish
- 1/2 cup(s) evaporated nonfat milk
- Heat oil in a large saucepan or Dutch oven over medium-low heat. Add celery root, potatoes, onion, celery and leek. Reduce heat to low, cover and cook until the vegetables are softened, stirring occasionally, 45 to 50 minutes.
- Add water, salt and white pepper to the pan. Bring to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in lovage (or celery leaves). Puree in batches in a food processor or blender until smooth. (Use caution when pureeing hot liquids.)
- Return the soup to the pan, stir in evaporated milk and heat through. Garnish each bowl with a lovage (or celery) leaf.
Tips & Techniques
Tip: To peel a celery root, cut off one end to create a flat surface to keep it steady. Cut off the skin with your knife, following the contour of the root. Or use a vegetable peeler and peel around the root at least three times to ensure all the fibrous skin has been removed.
Note: Lovage is related to celery and has a similar taste and appearance. Its leaves are used as a seasoning.
