Jeremy Renner provided fans with an update on his recovery after a snowplow accident on New Year's Day. The actor is making strides in a new video posted to social media on Sunday. On his Instagram stories, he posted a video of himself taking steps on an anti-gravity treadmill as part of his physical therapy. In the clip, the "Hawkeye" star can be seen explaining the equipment to another man, which enables him to feel less weight so that he can feel supported as he walks. "Now is the time for my body to rest and recover from my will," the text over the video read. Renner continues to recover at home and make steady improvements. Three months ago, the actor suffered “blunt chest trauma and orthopedic injuries” after being run over by a snowcat, a large piece of machinery used to clear snow from roads and trails.

Vanessa Carlton and the Art of Love

Published Wed, 19 Feb 2025 00:24:31 GMT

Vanessa Carlton and the Art of Love: Singer, songwriter and pianist Vanessa Carlton’s Future Pain Tour arrives in Hollywood at the Roxy, hot non the heels of new album Love is an Art. “Love Is An Art explores the eternal seesaw that is human connection: the push, the pull, the balance, the bottoming out,” reads a statement. “It’s that constantly evolving nature of love, expectations and compassion that Carlton analyzes from all angles on Love Is An Art, from romantic, to parental, to the friends that hold us up and the leaders that repeatedly let us down.”“Carlton has constantly challenged both herself and the expectations that surround her throughout her lengthy, accomplished career: she attended both the School of American Ballet and Columbia University, and was discovered as a singer-songwriter/pianist when a cassette tape demo was given to legendary music impresario Ahmet Ertegun,” reads that release. “With her debut single “A Thousand Miles” ...

For Women: How to Talk Dirty to Him

Published Wed, 19 Feb 2025 00:24:31 GMT

Sexy talk may not be openly discussed, but it’s something that’s commonly done by romantic couples and sexual partners — before, during, and even after sexy time! If you have a man that you want to turn on, you can talk dirty to him and let him know you’re in the mood for some fun — or you can just do it to tease him.Here’s how.3 Things to Know When You Talk Dirty to HimFind out what turns him on.If you know that a man is already into you (or your body), chances are, it won’t be that difficult to turn him on by talking dirty to him. However, not every man is into that. Try to see first if he likes that. You can ask him if he’s into it or you can just go straight for the sexy talk.Some men like to be teased — they get aroused when you’re coy about it. If the man you want to talk dirty to is like that, you can start by, say, texting him something like, “I’m already in bed but I can’t sleep because I want you here beside me.” Others, however, prefer that you get straight to the point. ...

John Wick: Chapter 4 is Another Wicked Whirlwind

Published Wed, 19 Feb 2025 00:24:31 GMT

Several years ago, a hitman was thrust back into a life of crime after a privileged thug killed his puppy and made off with his car. A deceptively simple story, but thanks to the indelible charm of Keanu Reeves, the talents of visionary director Chad Stahelski, dozens of beautifully choreographed fight scenes, and imaginative world-building, John Wick has become one hell of a franchise.While the first film was a pure revenge flick, Chapter 2 and Chapter 3 – Parabellum, dealt with the repercussions of Mr. Wick’s re-emergence and retaliation for breaking the rules of this heavily-regulated underworld. In Chapter 4, John has recovered from injuries he suffered from the betrayal of Winston (Ian McShane) while plotting vengeance against The Table, a mysterious syndicate that lives and dies by the codes they construct.A wanted man with a multi-million bounty on his head, John is in a bit of a precarious situation. The Table is fed up with his shenanigans and places all their f...

Meet Dark Surrealist Foroozan Shirghani

Published Wed, 19 Feb 2025 00:24:31 GMT

Foroozan Shirghani’s dark, poetic and eerily surrealist paintings, drawings, ceramics, moody video, and expressive textiles take root in a worldview colored by injustice, displacement, loss, and isolation. Rather than resist life’s slings and arrows, she follows the currents of the troubled sea — devising schematic compositions that are neither abstract nor figurative, depicting beings as embodied psyches in scenarios of fragmentation and, as the title of her new exhibition suggests, alienation. In her work, objects have a symbolic and shapeshifting nature expressing dysfunctional social structures and consequently contorted human behaviors. Despite the darkness of her iconography, Shirghani’s cool, stone palette, smooth shadows, and the presence, however distant, of a light source — a window, an egress, oculus, distant lantern, cold sun — demonstrates the persistence of life, and with it, hope. Her new exhibition opens this week at Advocartsy in West Hollywood.Foroozan Shirghani, I...

California Getaway: Wildflowers, condors and gorgeous Cuyama Valley

Published Wed, 19 Feb 2025 00:24:31 GMT

Don’t feel bad if you’ve never heard of California’s “Hidden Valley of Enchantment.”Part of the magic of the Cuyama Valley and the tiny cluster of towns that dot this inland valley an hour east of Santa Maria is the unpopulated, quiet magnitude of the natural landscape. A visit to this area, especially during a spring wildflower season that’s expected to be a super bloom this year,  offers an opportunity to tap into some of Cuyama’s elusive enchantment.Locals — and, likely, publicists — may have given this valley its catchy name. But they’re not wrong about its appeal. Despite its sleepy remoteness and vast, empty stretches, this hidden valley is a beguiling spot. No crowds, no rush hour bustle — just serenity and delightful surprises.Start your sojourn at the Cuyama Buckhorn, a historic property built in 1952 that has been brought back to life by Ferial Sadeghian and Jeff Vance, partners in the Los Angeles design and architectur...

That Washington is the sole survivor two weeks into the postseason speaks volumes about a less-than-happy ending for the Pac-12.The conference went 0-for-3 in the Sweet 16 and, for the first time since 2015, was shut out of the Elite Eight.The only Pac-12 team still playing is Washington, which tied for eighth in the regular season with Oregon.
