(AP Online Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) Chesney after ACM win: Fan votes shouldn’t decideLAS VEGAS (AP) _ Kenny Chesney won entertainer of the year for a fourth straight time Sunday, then promptly took issue with the way the Academy of Country music awarded the honor: through fan votes. For the first time in the show’s 43 years, the top prize _ traditionally decided by ACM members _ was determined through online voting. With the win, Chesney ties Garth Brooks and trails only Alabama, which won five in a row.
ABC’s `Desperate Housewives’ wraps fourth seasonNEW YORK (AP) _ In the closing moments of its season finale Sunday, "Desperate Housewives" flashed ahead five years. And while there were no hints to the White House’s occupant or the state of the economy in 2013, viewers got a few clues about Wisteria Lane’s future.
Review: Good to see Indy, but `Skull’ is a messYou see the hat before the hero _ that famous fedora, the one that stays put through every tricky situation, or at least at arm’s length for a hasty getaway. And of course he still has the whip, the paralyzing fear of snakes and the catchy John Williams theme song that will surely gnaw at your brain for hours afterward. Yes, "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" dives headfirst into the iconography of the franchise, which will bring a smile to your face and warm you with nostalgia. It’s admittedly a pleasure to see Harrison Ford back in the role.
K-Fed attorney: Intense interest has its benefitsLOS ANGELES (AP) _ Kevin Federline’s attorney can’t complain about the intense interest in his client’s child-custody battle with Britney Spears. He doesn’t grumble about the television trucks and news reporters swarming the courthouse every time there’s a hearing, or the paparazzi who hound the pop princess every moment there isn’t. And he’s certainly not opposed to the TV reports, tabloids and Web sites that have documented every shred of the case that has consumed him for the past 18 months.

Is that a millenium?
The idiot billionaire. And you are?
As an avid Adult Swim watcher, I’ve seen some of the Spaceballs-like merchandising in effect. It’s sad.
If that mindless hack Spielberg is “angered by review” now, just wait until this turkey opens.
It’s Lucas’s fault. Did you know the script he’s been pushing for years is called “Indiana Jones and the Saucer Men from Mars”? I WISH that was a joke. He’s a fucking idiot.
A lot of people are saying “Oh man, Harrison Ford is so old, it’s gonna be so bad”, and I disagree.I think that the movie is going to suck because it’s a blatant attempt to cash in on a loved character, and as such, they will not give two shits about the story or the like.
I’ll still go see it. From the review it seems like it has gone old school james bond….you know where bond never worries cause hes so cool.
Agreed. If Clint can still pull it off why not Ford?
No biggie. Drink five cups of coffee before you see it.
2 stars???
