Corey Feldman Laments The Death Of Corey Haim
The news of Corey Haim’s death has spread like wildfire across the internet, but the person who might have been most affected by the loss could well be Haim's best friend, often co-star and “brother,” Corey Feldman. Feldman issued this statement about Haim: “I was awakened at 8:30 this morning by my brother and sister knocking on my bedroom door. They informed me of the loss of my brother Corey Haim. My eyes weren't even open all the way when the tears started streaming down my face. I am so sorry for Corey, his mother Judy, his family, my family, all of our fans, and of course my son who I will have to find a way to explain this to when he gets home from school. This is a tragic loss of a wonderful, beautiful, tormented soul, who will always be my brother, family, and best friend. We must all take this as a lesson in how we treat the people we share this world with while they are still here to make a difference. Please respect our families as we struggle and grieve through this difficult time. I hope the art Corey has left behind will be remembered as the passion of that for which he truly lived.” ...

Bank Of America To Remove Overdraft Fees
Good news! Bank of America customers will soon be able to spend more money than they have in their accounts without paying unpredictable overdraft fees. Bank of America’s policy may be a fundamental step in getting other banks on board in the near future. So what happens if you want to buy a gorgeous engagement ring on your debit card, but you don’t have enough money in the bank to cover it? Simple, the transaction won’t go through. If you try to withdraw more funds than you actually have from an ATM, you’ll have to agree to pay a $35 overdraft fee before you can get the money. Beginning July 1, rules set by the Federal Reserve will ban banks from charging overdraft fees without first getting permission from the customer. “The majority of our customers who overdraw their account do so with everyday debit purchases,” says Susan Faulkner, senior vice president of consumer banking for Charlotte, N.C.-based Bank of America. “They're doing this unknowingly, because they aren't aware that they are about to overdraft.” The bank's new policy will start on June 19 for new accounts, and in early August for existing accounts. It will replace the bank's current terms, which charges a fee if the deficit is greater than $10. ...

A Complete Rundown Of The 2010 Oscars
Let’s start off like this: Kathryn Bigelow won big at last night’s Oscar Awards, taking home Best Director and Best Picture for her war drama The Hurt Locker. That’s right, Bigelow beat out her ex-husband and director of Avatar, James Cameron, for those prestigious honors. The Hurt Locker took home six prizes at the 2010 Academy Awards. Kathryn also earned the distinction of being the first woman ever to win the directing Oscar. After the ceremony, Bigelow expressed that she was eager for other women to follow her lead in winning: “I hope I'm the first of many, and of course, I'd love to just think of myself as a filmmaker. And I long for the day when that modifier can be a moot point,” she expressed “But I'm very grateful if I can inspire some young, intrepid, tenacious male or female filmmaker and have them feel that the impossible is possible, and never give up on your dream.” Was there drama between the Bigelow and Cameron? Well, they were seated in very close proximity during the show. Cameron joined the standing ovation Bigelow received for winning best director and was seen clapping eagerly and saying “Yes, yes.” Backstage, Bigelow had some kind words to say about Cameron: “Jim is very inspiring. I think he inspires filmmakers around the world, and for that, I think I can speak for all of them. We're quite grateful.” ...

Gang Holds Diamond Family Hostage
This past Friday wasn’t so great for Karp Impex, an India-based diamond manufacturer with offices in Antwerp. The office was the sight of one of the biggest robberies in Belgium. The family of Pankaj Maldar – a partner as Karp Impex – was held at gun point at their home by a gang of thieves demanding diamonds from the company’s office.

Reports suggest that the robbers made away with diamonds valued up to $10 million. The family was held hostage for 18 hours. Vasant Mehta, chairman of India’s Gem & Jewelry Export Promotion Center said: “Antwerp used to be a safe place to do business but this should serve as a wakeup call for the city,” He argued that the robbery wasn’t aimed specifically at the Indian company, claiming that “it could have been anyone.” ...
