On-Set Pictures of Emily Osment's 'All the Way Up' Music Video
Emily Osment has uploaded a bunch of pictures from the shooting location of her "All the Way Up" music video. Wearing black jeans matched with a grey top and black vest, she is seen rocking with band Push Play.
The video is directed by Roman White, the same man who worked on Push Play's "Midnight Romeo" video where Emily makes a cameo appearance. The video is confirmed to be debuted on Yahoo! on August 24.
"The video was so fun, Push Play (the band) plays my band ... We're buddies," Emily explained about the concept of the video in a recent interview. "It was really fun we shot it in a mock apartment where you could see what's going on in every room ... I'm playing music upstairs and you can see how it's effecting all the rooms below."
"All the Way Up" will be listed in Emily Osment's forthcoming debut album. While the track was unveiled on Radio Disney earlier this month, the not-yet-titled effort will not arrive in stores until March 2010.

Cold callers confuse heatpump issue
Relevant offers
Do heatpumps need regular servicing? Or are those cold-callers trying to pull the wool over your eyes? Chief reporter Joe Dawson investigates.
A heatpump servicing business has been cold-calling central Auckland householders and offering what some say is unnecessary work.
But Air Force One says it provides a legitimate service to keep heatpumps working efficiently and it's the cowboy installers people should be worried about, as they offer little in the way of follow-up care.
Mt Roskill resident Christine Gallagher contacted the Central Leader after she was called out of the blue by a representative of Air Force One, who offered her $310 worth of servicing for her three heatpumps.
The offer included the cleaning of filters and filter coils, checking of gas pressure, degreasing of the outdoor unit and disinfecting of the indoor unit.
She was told the unit could become faulty if it was not regularly serviced.
Mrs Gallagher thought this was odd. She believed heatpumps required minimal maintenance and could generally be looked after by the owner. She wants to make sure other heatpump users check with the installer or manufacturer of their heatpump before agreeing to any work.
She contacted the company that installed her three Panasonic heatpumps to check if the service was required and was told it was not.
Paul Varcoe of Varcoe Refrigeration says he has received many such calls from customers, especially over the last year, and says the work being offered is not necessary.
"There's nothing to really service on them," he says.
"People ring up all a-flutter but as long as you have clean filters that is all you need to do."
He says elderly people can be confused when contacted out of the blue.
"They think it is us calling them.
"If you don't clean your filters and it breaks down it can be a problem. Some older people can't do their filters and we go and do it for them."
Air Force One owner operator Shawn Blanchfield says heatpumps are like cars and need "a bit of love" to keep working efficiently.
Commercial buildings require air conditioning units to be serviced several times a year in order to meet warrant of fitness requirements, he says.
"If you do nothing with it it's not going to last. The fact is when the coils get dirty they lose efficiency."
He also says many are poorly installed by tradespeople operating in an aggressive market.
Common mistakes he sees are outdoor units placed on uneven surfaces or too low to the ground, resulting in moisture pooling or not draining properly and causing rust to build up.
Daikin technical support adviser Edward Duplessis says it is recommended that Daikin systems be serviced by a qualified person every 12 months.

'He was talking the face off of us': Cheryl Cole jokingly blames motormouth will.i.am's lack of concentration for car crash drama
Cheryl Cole arrived in London for a day of interviews with her arm in sling following her recent car accident.
The Promise Me singer wasted no time hitting the promotional trail for new single Under The Sun, and of course took the opportunity to shed some light on the accident which left her bloodied and bruised in alongside manager and friend will.i.am.
Clearly over the shock of the fender bender, the 29-year-old joked The Black Eyed Peas star wasn't concentrating on his driving as he was too busy chatting away to her.
Scroll down for video
Trooper: Cheryl Cole gets back to work in a sling just 48 hours after being involve din a bloody car crash alongside will.i.am
Injured: She flew straight back to London and spent this morning (Friday) attending different radio interviews across London
Bouncing back: Cheryl also revealed that the accident occurred when will.i.am was busy talking to her about his latest song
When asked by Capital Breakfast co-presenter Lisa Snowdon if will.i.am was a bad driver, Cheryl replied: 'That bad a talker, I would say. He was talking the face off us... He was talking about Nasa and Mars and his song.'
The American songwriter drove into a parked car while they were out for a takeaway at McDonald's
Cheryl was seen in London today (Friday) smiling broadly she turned up for interviews at Capital FM, and Radio 1.
She told Capital's Dave Berry that she actually only has to wear the sling for three days.
All smiles: She revealed to Capital Radio that she's been told by her doctor to wear the sling for three days
Meeting the fans: Cheryl strikes a silly pose for a picture with one of her fans, and spends time signing autographs
'You know what, I think it's actually hurting more to have it in the sling than it does when it's not in there. I was just told to wear it for three days. I'm following doctor's orders.'
Later at Radio chatting to Fearne
Cotton she said she was 'absolutely fine' but a feeling 'exhausted'
after returning to London from Los Angeles where the accident happened.
She also told Fearne she was looking forward to the Girls Aloud reunion to mark a decade in the music business.
The singer said all five members of
the group would 'just make it work' adding: 'Sometimes when I see old
pictures and stuff it feels like 10 years but in general it feels like
She said they had already met up to
discuss the plans and described the meeting as 'really exciting and
quite emotional as well.'
'Everyone is getting on well and getting on in age too,' said Cheryl.
New accessory: Cole was greeted by hordes of fans as she showed up to the Radio 1 studios earlier today
Relaxed: Despite the trauma of the crash, Cheryl has been taking to Twitter to ensure her fans she has fully back on the mend
Cheryl received treatment for the accident which happened in Los Angeles alongside manager will.i.am, who was pictured leaving hospital in a neck brace.
The pop star's PA posted one snap on her Twitter page this morning alongside the cheeky caption: 'One arm bandit but trust me her mouth still works! ?#nothingthematterwithher?.'
She is next due to film an appearance on Jonathan Ross's ITV chat show, to be aired next Saturday.
The crash occurred after Cole –
who has dropped her married name for professional purposes and will be
known as 'Cheryl' – and Black Eyed Peas star Will.i.am left a recording
It was Will.i.am, 37, a judge on BBC talent show The Voice, who was behind the wheel of the Cadillac when it drove into a parked car at around 3.30am.
Slinging eck: Cheryl Cole's PA posted a snap of star complete with her new accessory, a black sling on her arm Twitter page on Friday
Back to business: Cheryl at Capital FM with Lisa Snowdon and Dave Berry today
Pick me up: Cheryl gets a caffeine fix as she prepares to be interviewed
Cheryl was left bloodied and bruised following the early morning car crash. The singer, 29, and her manager and close friend Will.i.am managed to escape the accident with only minor injuries.
The pair were pictured with blood streaming down their noses and mouths as they sat dazed in a £100,000 Cadillac in the early hours of Wednesday in Los Angeles.
Both left hospital wearing neck braces, but friends of Miss Cole insisted it was only a 'precautionary measure' – and within hours, the singer was boarding a flight to the UK with her arm in a sling.
Cheryl, who has a series of appearances planned to plug her new single Under The Sun, was said to be 'shaken' following the incident, but a source insisted: 'It looked worse than it was.
'Of course, Cheryl was really shaken up. The hospitals will give you a neck brace as a precaution, but she's gearing up for a full day of promotion, she's fine.'
The passenger side airbag apparently
failed to open and Miss Cole was thrown headfirst into the dashboard,
leaving her bleeding, bruised and wiping away tears.
Witnesses said that Will.i.am's airbag inflated and hit him in the face, which caused a nose bleed.
Police were called to the scene and the stars were taken to nearby Cedars-Sinai hospital, emerging wearing neck braces.
But both Miss Cole and Will.i.am were quick to reassure fans. Will.i.am wrote on Twitter: 'Car accidents are not dope. I'm glad I'm OK.' Responding to a friend, he added: '[Cheryl] and I are fine. Just a little #wiplash (sic).'
Late-night burger: Cheryl Cole and Will.i.am - pictured here in a recent shoot - were stopping off for a McDonalds at 3.30am when the crash occurred
Miss Cole wrote: 'Don't worry me and @iamwill are fine, promise.x'
The pair have been close friends since Miss Cole appeared on Will.i.am's solo single Heartbreaker in 2008 – her first endeavour away from her group Girls Aloud.
All OK: The two were injured in a car accident after a long day/night in the studio together; seen in a Twitter picture from earlier this year
He went on to guide her as she began a solo career and has steered her through three albums. But in an interview and photo shoot with ES magazine, out Friday, the pair addressed rumours that they had been romantically involved.
Miss Cole, who is divorced from footballer Ashley Cole and in a new relationship with dancer Tre Holloway, said: 'Of course that's the natural thing people go to.
'Heaven forbid you should have any kind of relationship with someone from the opposite sex. I was still married then too. I had always thought Will was quirky and out there and just ridiculously talented, and he is all those things.
'He's amazing and we just clicked straight away.'
For his part, Will.i.am said he was drawn to Miss Cole's personality, describing her as: 'Charming, approachable, adorable, sweet, broken, fragile, strong.'
The rapper denied rumours that he is gay and insisted he is 'not lonely'.
Meanwhile, Miss Cole, who will begin her first UK solo tour on October 3, revealed that she has decided to pen an autobiography to clear up inaccuracies written about her.
She said: 'The amount I've had to read and endure and cry about and deal with has become very frustrating . . . I was always happy to keep my mouth shut, but it's like when a bully slaps someone and finally I've had enough.'

Raritan Launches Remote Management Solution
Raritan has launched a solution to remotely access and manage IT equipment in branch offices and other remote sites called the Raritan Dominion XRO.
The turnkey solution features a browser-based interface and leverages the company s KVM-over-IP, Serial-over-IP and remote power control technologies, supporting up to three servers and eight serially managed devices.
Its CommandCenter SecureGateway delivers a unified, enterprise-wide view and access via a single IP-address to all the IT equipment managed by Dominion XRO units. IT managers can use a single Web or SSH based log-on for a real-time, graphical view of the IT equipment in branch offices and data centers.
The Dominion XRO also boasts of out of band access to remote servers and devices - even in the event of network failure or router operating system crash. It includes an integrated modem for emergency access when the IP network is down.
"Ideal for enterprises with hundreds to thousands of branch offices, Dominion XRO addresses real-world environments where servers with multiple operating systems and an array of telecom equipment coexist in branch locations; where there is little to no IT support on premises; and where there are bandwidth constraints, such as dial-up or unreliable connections," said Sanjay Motwani, Country Manager, Raritan India.
The Dominion XRO can manage servers, switches, routers, Point-of-Sale systems, PBXs, headless servers, network devices, serial equipment and environmental control devices.
The plug-and-play solution needs no external software or servers to operate and is currently available.

Season 4 Promo of 'Chuck' Reveals Linda Hamilton
Fans of "Chuck" who attended the July Comic Con in San Diego had been treated with a glimpse of Linda Hamilton at the end of the featured footage. NBC has now released a promo for the fourth season which depicts the actress in her character, mom Bartowski.
Hamilton is selected after a search which used Scott Bakula as a model to how they want the mother to look like. Mary Elizabeth Bartowski was mentioned in Bakula's Stephen Bartowski's dying wish for Chuck and Ellie to finally find out who she really is. Creator Chris Fedak confirmed that the first half of the season "is really about the search for mum".
The mission is not an easy ride for Chuck because an obstacle by the name of Harry Dean Stanton jumps in. "Harry will play Harry Dean, the man who comes between Chuck and his search for Mom. Who is he exactly? Well, we'll say this: Only Harry Dean Stanton could play this part," Fedak said previously.
"Chuck" returns September 20 on NBC.
On another news, Bonita Friedericy is promoted to be a regular on the series. "She's an incredibly important part of the show," Fedak told EW about the actress who portrays General Beckman. "She's like the Charlie to Charlie's Angels." Revealing more, Fedak confirmed that the general who always appears on TV screen will finally show up in person. "We'll see her legs in the first episode. She gets to walk around," he said.

Enermax CS-528 & CS-718 Series Aluminum Cases Review
In the not too distant past, the idea of having an aluminum case meant a huge investment of money. Add to the mix a modified case and you included a huge investment of time. The thought of having an affordable aluminum enclosure is excellent, but the thought of having an affordable pre-modded case is amazing.
Both of the models tested bring to the table the ability to have a sharp looking case that will make many of the folks at your next LAN party drool. A solid aluminum structure and a superb exterior coating make for an outstanding case. The added windows and lighting effects just make it that much better. While it doesn't have all the features of the big boys, it also doesn't have the hefty price tag.
Since we're talking prices, let me say that the CS-528 can be had for US$65 online with an included Enermax 300w PSU. This is an absurdly low price for a decent power supply and an aluminum case with windows and lighting. And while the pricing isn't yet available for the CS-718 Series, similar case designs from Enermax are going at about $15 higher, so it should be in this neighborhood.
Now don't take me wrong here, I'm not going to sit here and say that these cases are the best available. I generally use a Lian-Li that has been modified in my everyday system and it is both cooler and a bit more sturdy than the two reviewed today, but there is no doubt at all that you are definitely getting your money's worth from either of these two contenders tested today.
Bottom line...If you are on a budget but still want to have an aluminum enclosure with a lot to say for itself, then check out the Enermax CS-528 and CS-718 Series enclosures. They offer good quality, great looks and an excellent price for those who can't afford the big names in case designs. You will get more quality than many other manufacturers on the market at a price that won't make you cringe.
- Pros
Very affordable
Several color choices
Good use of lighting effects
Removable motherboard tray
Textured acrylic finish on exterior
- Cons
CS-528 loses two drive bays for LED light
CS-718 has no front air vents in bezel
Thinner aluminum than other cases

Tibetan Monks Protect Endangered Snow Leopard
Buddhist monks who reside in monasteries have helped protect snow leopards by keeping poachers at bay.
A recent study published in the journal Conservation Biology, which analyzed the endangered snow leopard population in China's Quinhai Province from 2009 to 2011, found that Buddhist monks who reside in monasteries in the Sanjiangyuan region are playing a vital roll in protecting the feline species from poachers. According to the research, more than 90 percent of all the monasteries were either located in or within three miles of the snow leopards' habitats, and through perpetuating cultural traditions, societal education, and routine patrols, the snow leopards were safer near the monasteries than on reservations. "Buddhism has as a basic tenet—the love, respect, and compassion for all living beings," said study co-author George Schaller. "This report illuminates how science and the spiritual values of Tibetan Buddhism can combine their visions and wisdom to help protect China's natural heritage."

Teen's memorial sounds red alert over drugs
HUNTINGTON BEACH – Although black is traditionally the color of choice for a memorial service, red dominated the church where more than 1,400 people gathered Wednesday to say farewell to Tyler Macleod.
Red is a color that gets noticed. It's a power color. Red is also the color of drug awareness.
Red is for Tyler.
Tyler, 18 and a senior at Huntington Beach High School, died Sept. 24 of what his parents say was a heroin overdose.
He is one of several teens who have succumbed to the drug in recent months, prompting a community outcry for action from school, city and police officials.
"This is the most senseless thing I've ever seen in my life, and it could have been prevented," said Bruce Templeton Sr., pastor of First Christian Church in Huntington Beach, where the service was held. "Tyler's death shows this is not a game. ... This is deadly stuff."
Part of the memorial was sweet and solemn.
Photos of Tyler set to music showed a smiling boy swimming, playing T-ball and hugging his baby sister, Sophia. They showed him playing lacrosse and football and jumping out of a plane on his first skydive about two weeks ago.
But this memorial also had a message.
"Never again will we allow parents to bury their children," said Kelly Cason, a friend of the Macleod family. "Every one of us has a responsibility to our youth."
As Cason delivered her message calling for community action to stop what appears to be a teen drug epidemic, people shouted from the audience, "Never again!"
Tyler came from a loving and supportive family, but he struggled with attention deficit disorder and depression, which friends and family said may have prompted his experimentation with drugs in an attempt to self-medicate.
First, it was marijuana and cigarettes, then Ecstasy and prescription pills, and, finally, heroin.
When Dave and Nancy Macleod discovered their son's addictions, they tried detoxification homes, rehabilitation homes, live-in counselors, mentors, taking away social privileges, drug testing several times a week and Narcotics Anonymous meetings to help him.
Tyler got better and had been clean for nearly two months over the summer. Several weeks into school, he started using drugs again and ran away from home, likely to feed his addiction, his family said.
Tyler died in a Fountain Valley hotel room.
The night before he died, he called his parents to tell them he wanted help and wanted to get clean again.
Hundreds of students attended Wednesday's memorial. Some knew Tyler; others were affected by his story.
"I hope that it actually gets the message across more seriously, especially to Tyler's friends who are using," Huntington Beach High School senior Reina Escobar said.
Parents and activists promise to press city and school officials for help.
"As parents here, we're just in shock," Cason said. "If this can happen to the Macleods, it can happen to (anybody)."
Tina Thornton, a longtime friend and neighbor of the Macleods, said she sees Tyler's death as a call to clean up the community.
"I didn't realize that heroin was so prevalent," she said.
Templeton also joined the effort and called on students and parents to get involved so Tyler's death "would not be in vain."
Huntington Beach High School announced Tuesday it has set up a 24-hour hotline for students struggling with drug use or addiction. City Council members pledged Monday that they would work with parents.
To close the service, hundreds used Sharpie pens to sign Tyler's white casket. Some wrote messages of peace or a final farewell.
Others wrote messages of hope:
"Grandson ... this is the beginning to make our country free from drugs."

Pac..in the 20s last we heard...
Obviously, he's doing something right if he fights much less lol.
Floyd is notoriously smart outside the ring and most of his trouble has seemed to be exaggerated. Isn't Pac the one who keeps being sued for financial reasons? And you might think Ms Jackson will be more expensive, but we all know Jinkee gunna leave Pac's ass and take half lol. Arum will bleed Pac dry before it's all said and done. He's doing it now..
Endorsement deals are hilarious of you to bring up. Pac has to sell another brand, Floyd only sells his own brand, which is himself...and that seems to be working perfectly fine for him. Any elite athlete can get endorsements. Dont forget there was an issue about Pac being endorsed for peanuts (very little money) before. This was due to his "team" begging for endorsements like telemarketers. Hence change in personnel (Hennessy ftw. THATS a nice, gentleman's endorsement, even if it kind of goes against his image.)
I genuinely dont want to see Pac screwed over. He deserves any money he gets..but he's going about everything the wrong way imo by involving Arum in too much, including his foundation now. He needs to distance himself like Floyd did and make his own brand instead of representing others. Pac is much more than that.

Having accounts on BoxingScene, where they constantly argue under the account names of Yesir and Check_Hooks in the Mayweather/Pacquiao Master Thread.
And Bob Arum will still be saying the fight will happen next year.

most people who sell drugs didnt learn how from a biggie smalls song
to answer the OP:
i can see floyd taking a year off to do whatever (probably spend an inordinate amount of money,) and then heading into business
if you are motivated, surrounded by the right people, and go about it with intellegence, you can be successful in business
hopkins is looking to be the most successful businessman in phili
floyd shoud head into business. if he's serious about promoting he's in for a TON of hard work. he's a motivated guy. i see no reason that he cant become a successful promotor if he's willing to learn and surround himself witht he right people and make the right connection.
and pacquiao could very well be the president of the phillipines
his star has gone down a good deal here, but i have no idea about the Philippines.

Consumers will have to wait for at least a year before power prices drop, despite wholesale prices falling to the lowest level in years, a practice one energy analyst called price gouging.
Domestic Energy Users Network lobbyist Molly Melhuish said consumers patiently accepted higher power prices in recent years as power firms expanded their generation capacity, but now overcapacity and full hydro lakes had pushed prices sharply lower.
According to Electricity Authority figures, the wholesale electricity price was recently trading at $73 per megawatt hour, well short of the $131/MWh seen at the same time last year. However, the benefit of this power glut is not being seen on power bills.
Melhuish noted Mighty River Power had raised retail prices by 2 per cent over the last six months even as power purchase costs dropped by 22 per cent over the same period. She called the practice a "price gouging of captive consumers".
Those increases have come on top of the Commerce Commission's electricity cost resets, where 13 of the country's 16 power distributors were ordered to lift their prices.
Under those changes, Mighty River Power's retail arm, Mercury Energy, recently announced it will increase prices in Christchurch by 7.7 per cent from the spring.
That follows similar hikes from the firm in Wellington (up 3.3 per cent) and Dunedin (up 1.1 per cent), while costs in Auckland fell (down 1.4 per cent).
Prices are also set to come under further pressure as lines company TransPower continues to pass on costs of upgrading its ageing national infrastructure to retailers, and eventually customers.
The government-owned lines monopoly is expected to lift its prices 10 per cent this year, with the pass-through costs having already risen by 15 per cent last year.
The industry says the picture is not as simple as it looks.
Electricity Authority chief executive Carl Hansen warned against linking retail prices and wholesale prices, saying retailers generally buy electricity on futures contracts, often as far out as 12 months to 36 months.
Thus, current prices are largely a reflection of retailers' pricing bets when the futures contract was bought, and low wholesale market prices will factor into lower prices down the road.
For example, electricity futures have fallen by about 25 per cent in value from July 2012 to late January.
"Over the next 12 to 18 months we'll see how competitive the market gets," Hansen said.
A Mighty River Power spokesperson said the contracts also isolate consumers from sharp spikes in the wholesale market "which goes up as well as down".
Ari Sargent, head of Meridian subsidiary Powershop, said consumers also needed to bear in mind that power prices only made up about 38 per cent of a typical electricity bill, and any reduction in input costs was likely to be muted by lines charges and higher retail operating costs.
"One of the consequences of [the EA's What's My Number campaign] is higher sales and marketing and customers retention costs," Sargent said.
He is also cautious on the electricity price path, with the outlook potentially skewed by high hydro lake levels which could be "a washout over time".
The other factor he'll be watching is demand, with increased commercial usage as the economy picks up steam likely to push electricity prices higher. That demand isn't expected to kick in any time soon, according to Auckland electricity distributor Vector.
In its interim results announcement last week, chief executive Simon McKenzie said manufacturing activity (excluding housing construction) in the city looked set to remain in the doldrums for the foreseeable future.
