Hill Harper: I'm Really Sad That Floyd Isn't Fighting Pacquiao

29 April 2012 6:04 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »

In our weekly "Love Of The Game" series, HuffPost Black Voices talks sports with a person of note. This week New York Times best-selling author and 'CSI: NY' star Hill Harper shares his thoughts on Floyd Mayweather’s upcoming fight against Miguel Cotto.

"I’m watching my man Floyd Mayweather coming up to fight on May 5th and I’m really sad that he’s not fighting Manny Pacquiao. That’s a fight that should’ve been made, but instead he’s fighting somebody else. And also, he’s fighting a fight before he’s about to go serve some time, and I wonder how’s that wearing on his mind. He’s been a mentally strong fighter, and I think that has led to his success. So you have to be very mentally strong to know that you’re fighting a fight and then soon there afterwards »

Look: Baldwin, Other Celebrities Head To Capitol Hill To Press Arts Funding Cause

17 April 2012 12:26 PM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »

Washington -- Celebrities including Alec Baldwin visited Capitol Hill Tuesday to shine their spotlight on federal funding for the arts.

Baldwin and others including actors Hill Harper, Melina Kanakaredes, Tiffani Thiessen and singers Ben Folds and Clay Walker are part of the artistic delegation for Americans for the Arts. The nonprofit organization works to advance arts and arts education across the country.

Baldwin told a news conference that the arts stimulate children's education.

With about $147 million in federal funding for the National Endowment for the Arts this year, the group hopes to increase funding to $155 million next year.

Folds, who met with Rep. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., to press for funding, credited art programs at public schools for his success today. The musician said the arts provide children with a "well-balanced curriculum." »

Alec Baldwin Drops '30 Rock' News At Press Club

16 April 2012 2:56 PM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »

Washington -- Alec Baldwin reminded Washington journalists on Monday that he's one of the sharpest politically minded actors in Hollywood during an hourlong speech at the National Press Club. His visit was part of a lobbying blitz for Americans for the Arts, a nonprofit group that advocates for increased federal funding of the arts. But Baldwin ensured widespread coverage by also dropping some key entertainment news.

In between stories from his college years at George Washington University and his Capitol Hill internship in the late 1970s, Baldwin confirmed that he will remain on "30 Rock" through the seventh season starting next fall, although he said that season would be the NBC show's last.

Speculation swirled last week that Baldwin planned to quit "30 Rock" early when he tweeted, "I think I'm leaving NBC just in time,” after finding a crew from the network's "Today" show camped outside his Manhattan apartment. Baldwin plays »

Episode Recap: CSI: NY - 8.11: "Who's There"

9 April 2012 6:35 PM, PDT | PopStar | See recent PopStar news »

A couple make small talk at dinner, interspersed with flashes of what is about to befall them. Their home is invaded and the husband is killed presumably during the attack. It was apparent their marriage is over. Flack (Eddie Cahill) says the wife called for help which must have been a feat itself considering she was bound, gagged and in the bedroom. There were two intruders and both wore ski masks, what we'd call balaclavas. The daughter Megan, (Heather Sossaman) was at the movie theatre. Mac (Gary Sinise) questions all the houses in the neighbourhood to find out "why the attackers chose this one?" Lindsay (Anna Belknap) processes the Cs as we get more flashes of the events from the night. She finds a ski mask under the husband, Ron's (Vincent Ventresca) Db and the empty box that was delivered. Jo (Sela Ward) finds a hair from a slashed painting. »

2 April 2012 5:30 PM, PDT | PopStar | See recent PopStar news »

A cage fight ensues, where Petrov (Tito Ortiz) is beaten by Ryan. He accuses Ryan of cheating and they make it seem like he holds a grudge against him and will be up to no good. A burned Db is found. Flack (Eddie Cahill) asks Mac (Gary Sinise) if he's skipped breakfast. A melted driver's licence was found which Ided him as Ryan (Alex Nesic). Mac believes the Db was burned here and accelerant was used. The body was allowed to burn. Mac: "Somebody wanted to destroy the evidence." Sid (Robert Joy) is out of autopsy again and gasoline was used. Hawkes (Hill Harper) wonders why it kept burning, not being pedantic but he was an Me before and they didn't need for him to ask that question, though it was for our benefit. Sid believes it was the candle wick effect. His clothing kept on burning like an inside out candle wick. »

29 March 2012 10:08 AM, PDT | PopStar | See recent PopStar news »

Jo (Sela ward) is thrown against a mirror and hovers between consciousness, as a man walks around the room, which we know can only be Curtis (Jason Wiles) and throws bullets around. 48 hours earlier Jo spots a man outside the courtroom, who is revealed as Frank (Michael Weston). Serena (Jenn Proske) is distraught over Curtis walking free. Jo is adamant they will get him. The Senator (Jeffrey Nordling) asks how she can say that. Jo isn't involved in the case and "the case still fell apart." That's a damning indictment against Lindsay (Anna Belknap) and her skills if ever there was one, ha. 3 years ago Washington DC, a flashback to Jo meeting the Senator and Serena. He doesn't want any press involvement that's why he called in the FBI. Serena was drinking and blames herself. Present day Jo gets out the evidence and Mac (Gary Sinise) reaffirms she can't be on this case, »

20 March 2012 1:05 PM, PDT | PopStar | See recent PopStar news »

A man comes too on the floor of an apartment and the TV plays in the background, a scene about self defence and not being believed. He leaves on his bike. A jury and judge arrive to view a Cs and the judge is shot by a shooter on a bike. Mac (Gary Sinise) picks up his rolling cigar. Flack (Eddie Cahill) comments the criminal court judge was shot under the noses of the cops and the jury was sequestered. Judge Vinnie Corsica (Brad Blaisdell) was presiding over the Markov trial, a Russian mobster. Danny (Carmine Giovinazzo) talks about him being the "Sammy Bull of Russian organized crime and Markov has "a dozen bodies on him." Mac: "Looks like it just went to a baker's dozen." Groan that was definitely one of Stella's lines. Hawkes (Hill Harper) and Lindsay (Anna Belknap) process the Cs. Hawkes finds a smashed bullet. Three »

Episode Recap: CSI: NY - 8.07: "Crushed"

12 March 2012 6:43 AM, PDT | PopStar | See recent PopStar news »

A teen party goes viral and out of control when a balcony collapses, leaving one dead, Libby (Valentina de Angelis). Flack (Eddie Cahill) calls it "most parents' worst nightmare: someone spills their drink on a new carpet." Continuing, "Welcome to the end of the world as we know it." Wow Flack actually got the end line before the opening credits. Sid (Robert Joy) actually gets out of the autopsy lab to personally attend the Db at the scene. She was asphyxiated. Jo (Sela ward) estimates there were than fifty on the balcony, plus the marble table. Danny (Carmine Giovinazzo) collects prints from the table. Back at the lab, Hawkes (Hill Harper) and Lindsay (Anna Belknap) calculate the stress analysis (could have just put her on the contraption.) Hawkes calculates without the use of a calculator, but Lindsay insists on using a calculator anyway, as if he'd be wrong. The balcony »

Episode Recap: CSI: NY - 8.06: "Get Me Out of Here!"

6 March 2012 11:05 AM, PST | PopStar | See recent PopStar news »

College kids run around a cemetery on Hallowe'en and a girl falls into an open grave and lands on a Db. Jo (Sela Ward) comments, "It's not often you find a Db where it actually belongs." Mac (Gary Sinise) claims he was dead before he got here. Flack (Eddie Cahill) is canvassing the area for a murder weapon and Jo asks, "expecting the dead to speak." The Db was hit before the fall. Nice moment between Jo and Flack that's what gives this show so much more in terms of character development and why it deserves to continue. That and great storylines. Oh okay I've had my rant at the beginning, never mind! The Db has four phones on him, which Flack calls overkill Mac: "...so does dying in somebody else's grave." Fisher (David Burke) is responsible for the cemetery and claims he isn't trained to handle this kind of death, »

A prisoner listens to Riley (Robbie Amell) play basketball on a smuggled radio. That opening scene looked like he was going to get out something other than a radio. Riley meets his brother Hank (Justin Bruening) at the prison and he wants to see his girlfriend. Cue his Db girlfriend. Flack (Eddie Cahill) ascertains she's been stabbed several times. Hank moved in three weeks ago. His name is written on the door in blood. Mac (Gary Sinise) "Looks like Angela left us a message." Hank is still on drugs, as Riley says a prayer at the dinner table and Flack arrests Hank. The Cs is processed and Flack questions Hank by showing him photos of the Cs, in particular the one with his name. He loves her. There was no forced entry.

Danny (Carmine Giovinazzo) wakes up in the street with blood on his head and still hazy. He reaches for the gun in his leg holster but it's missing. Cooper (Jeananne Goossen) has his gun. The other rookies tell him what happened. Cooper had to fire after Danny was hit with a bottle and the Db had a gun. Mac (Gary Sinise) tells Danny about Cooper being by him and Danny didn't ID himself as a police officer as this would have made matters worse. The rest of his story is based on what he's been told by the others. Hawkes (Hill Harper) and Adam (Aj Buckley) arrive at the scene to collect evidence and Lindsay tells Ia Adler (Dean Norris) she's taking Danny to the ER and he doesn't have to make a statement yet. Sid (Robert Joy) removed glass from the Db's hand, which matches Danny's headwound. The Vic, »

The scene opens with a woman who is dressing to impress and she meets up with another one. They steal a Ferrari and drive away. Danny (Carmine Giovinazzo) briefs his rookie officers on the car theft ring. Sixteen Ferraris have been stolen over the past four months. The first time we get to see him doing a briefing as sergeant. Danny rides with his rookie partner Lauren Cooper (Jeananne Goossen) and they drive to five parking garages. At the fifth one they come across a parked Ferrari with the engine still on. There's a dead woman in the boot/trunk. One of the car thieves. Mac (Gary Sinise) arrives and comments on the murder, "That photo puts her behind the wheel, now we got to figure out who put her in the trunk."

Two men watch a woman perform on stage, she is the girlfriend of one of them. The man is later found shot. Lindsay (Anna Belknap) is on the scene after Danny (Carmine Giovinazzo) has already arrived. Lots of lines follow about being busy and now she's looking for her husband, a police sergeant; scenes which always seem forced and oh so not romantic.

In a scene from September 11 2001, Mac (Gary Sinise) cuts himself shaving and Claire (Jaime Ray Newman) calls 911 for help, as a joke (she doesn't really call - they're just fooling around like a married couple). Mac's taking John to the opera: that's John from the robbery squad. She then sees two tickets to the opera behind her. Claire: "What would you do without me?" What he's always done before they met and after he lost her, muddle through somehow, with his mind on the job and getting no sleep whatsoever. The radio reports on September 11 2011, the tenth anniversary of the attacks. "We will never forget." At the lab, Adam (Aj Buckley) calls Jo (Sela Ward) 'boss.' She corrects him, she's "interim boss" until Sinclair finds a replacement for Mac. In the meantime, she puts Mac's nameplate back on his desk. Adam reminds us he's been gone four months. Danny »

Mac (Gary Sinise) comes into his usual coffeeshop for breakfast and comments on the woman's new boyfriend. He orders what we think is the usual, oatmeal, raisins and maple syrup. A woman talks to Mac, he's an oatmeal person. The waitress, Amy (Emily Harrison) accidentally drops a plate of bacon on the floor and a man holds a gun behind a newspaper. Another man pulls a gun and is shot, so is Amy. Mac helps her. Mac: "Save it for your new boyfriend, Amy, you're gonna tell him about how you survived all this. "Flack: (Eddie Cahill) "I'm never gonna get a better eye witness account than this." Mac recalls there were three shots fired, first ricocheted off the metal chair, which Danny (Carmine Giovinazzo) finds went through the pastry tray and into the wall. The second hit Amy and the third hit the man. There are prints on the phone. »
