Brooklyn Decker, Glamour girl

Brooklyn Decker has landed another magazine cover.

The 5-foot-9, 23-year-old swimsuit model is striking (as usual) in a yellow bikini on the cover of the June issue of Glamour, which also features models Crystal Renn and Alessandra Ambrosio.

The magazine's cover spread features its "Kind of Swimsuit Issue, which spotlights the three beauties but also includes swimsuit ideas for women of various shapes and sizes -- including "athletic," "big-bottomed," "short-torsoed," "pear-shaped" ladies, and more.

In Decker's two-page spread, the blonde wears a black and white striped bikini and a revealing black and blue one-piece. She's asked whether it was hard to find her place in modeling because she doesn't have a rail-thin build. Her reply: "I got successful once I accepted I'm athletic, I have boobs. I set my own standard."

Mrs. Andy Roddick -- who appeared earlier this year on the cover of Sports Illustrated's swimsuit issue -- also reveals that she lives in Brooklyn and was named after a horse called Brook.

Decker is currently working on a movie with Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston titled "Just Go For It," which is being shot in Hawaii.

The show goes out on TV on 6th June – Let’s hope this single lives up to all the hype...

The Events Industry is Professionalising

Over the past decade festivals and events have been one of the fastest growing areas of the world leisure industry.
During that decade, Australia has hosted many of the major events on the global calendar; from an Olympics and a Commonwealth Games, to World Youth Day and the APEC summit.
We are all tired of the ‘interruptions’ of traditional media like television. Events provide us with those experiences we desire, on our terms and in our time. Events are something created collectively with a human voice: by people and for people. That’s why they have become so popular in recent times.
With the continued rise in popularity of events, there is growing demand for the right kind of people to make them happen. World class events require the very best talent: trained, experienced and passionate about becoming the masters of this unique medium.
As a consequence, the Events Industry is professionalising like never before. Event employers are increasingly seeking staff with formal qualifications and experience as they face the challenges of developing and organising increasingly sophisticated events.
To meet this demand for people with practical skills training, Event Management Training Australia runs a Diploma in Event Management with Public Relations in Sydney. Starting on July 21st 2010, the diploma runs over 10 weeks and has been designed to provide participants with the practical skills essential for those working or planning to work in this sector.
If you’re interested in learning more about this growing profession, and the Diploma of Event Management, contact Event Management Training Australia on 03 9650 1066 or visit our website: http://www.eventtrainingaus.com.au/event_management_sydney_index.php

Boy George

Oh dear ... Boy George has slammed the quality of last night's TV biopic ‘Worried About The Boy’
He took to Twitter at the time of the show was broadcast posting that it was “badly written”... “It's on in the background, the make-up is the best thing about it,” he said, ... “Verdict, beautifully shot & styled but badly written, it lacks heart and soul!”
However, critics were generally positive about the show, with The Daily Telegraph saying: “a stunning, sensitive and surprisingly moving production”
Some internet bloggers also praised Mathew Horne's “outstanding” portrayal of drummer Jon Moss.
I have it recorded and will watch it at some point this week (around the Faithless, Alicia Keys & Rihanna concerts and French class) Oh and work of course!
