Paula Goodspeed, drug overdose?

Paula Goodspeed was an American Idol hopeful and was shot down by the judges during her Proud Mary audition, and now she has been found dead in a car near Paula Adbul's home from an apparent overdose. Has television and the news media gone to far. Is this just a tragic end to a disturbed young womans life or should the there be an accountability for these kinds of tragedies? I believe that it was high time that we had a higher standard of television, movies and other medias. They are influencing our young and I believe that if something isn't done about it, ADHD and High Functioning Autism are not going to be the only rising problems that we see in our children in the future.
Should we be establishing rules and regulations in regards to things that effect young people on a direct and an indirect but numbing level?

Drop me a line and let me know what you think.

Eragon Series (Book 2) Eldest - Movie question

They are many questions regarding the inconsistency of the first movie and everyone is wondering if there is going to be a second movie made.
I hope that there is a second movie, as my children have read the books and I have not, I do not feel that I am missing out on any of the plot line and I did enjoy the first movie.
I am hoping to see John Malkovich as the dread King Galbatorix. I think he is the best actor for the role.
Eragon (Widescreen Special Edition)

He is a great character actor and brings life to the screen.
