Ready to Meet the Cast of NBC's Heroes TV show?

In the tradition of Film Festival Wednesdays here at the Madlab Post, I will now introduce you to a fun event worth checking out if you live in or near the Los Angeles area. I do not have any films playing at the JULES VERNE ADVENTURE FILM FESTIVAL but I would be in attendance if I had some frequent flyer miles. It already started on the 5th of this month, but will be going on up until December 16, 2007. Screenings will be taking place at the Shrine Auditorium and the Los Angeles Theatre. Thats not all....you can meet the cast of the NBC hit show Heroes at the JULES VERNE ADVENTURE FILM FESTIVAL.

Numerous cast members from Heroes are listed to be in attendance at the closing day event for this film festival. If you like adventurous films or science fiction or even if you are just bored and want to get away from the Holiday rush, this is a fun place to be. I just found out about the JULES VERNE ADVENTURE FILM FESTIVAL so I will be checking it out more to see if I can submit one of my short movies or videos to this event in the upcoming seasons. If you are familiar with this festival or have attended the event in previous years, I am curious to know what your experience was like. Leave your Comments below!

Holiday deals save you money on more than entertainment

There is a lot of shopping going on this season, despite high gas prices and other inflated expenses that cover the cost of living. Black Friday is no longer the only player in town when it comes to holiday shopping deals. Now, Cyber Monday has been created to save everyone money while shopping online, in the form of discounts and free items. There has been a lot of talk on the news and internet about websites that specialize in nothing but great deals on almost any type of holiday gift that you can buy. One of the sites that offer holiday deals is couponchief.com where lots of money-saving coupons are available. I checked this site out and found coupons for the most popular stores.

This site is easy to use and has a neat layout, which is a plus when it comes to shopping. My mother has been searching for a computer for a while so I could easily make use of those great Best Buy Deals that are offered through Coupon Chief. I also searched the site to find coupons and deals for my younger cousin Jasmine. The Apple Store deals would make it easier to get her an iPod for the holidays.
