FAQ
Why are actors blacklisted?

How does the brain regulate the functions of the body?
The brain relays messages to other parts of the body to ensure their functionality. Everything that happens within your body is controlled by the brain. It tells both your stomach and lungs what to do; it also controls your legs and arms.
Your brain is made up billions of nerve cell networks connected in groups known as neurons. Neurons communicate with each other by sending electrical signals called action potentials on axons. Every neuron has a cell wall around its nucleus. Inside the membrane are channels that allow ions such as sodium and potassium to enter and leave the cell. The neuron is lit by an electric charge created by the movement of ions.
When a neuron is activated, neurotransmitters release chemicals into the space between it and the next neuron. Neurotransmitters attach to the receptors of the second neuron and open ions channels for ions to pass in and out. The second neuron also fires.
Neurotransmitter production occurs when a neuron in the presynaptic receives an impulsive signal from another. The impulse travels along an synapse between the neurons. The transmitter binds with the receptors of the postsynaptic nerve, activating the firing of the postsynaptic neurons.
The nervous system relies on neurotransmitters for communication. They are also responsible for coordinating activity between various parts of the brain.
Is there an Hollywood blacklist?
There is a Hollywood blacklist.
However, the list isn’t public. According to our knowledge, the names of these people aren't known. But, here's why it matters.
The secretive nature of the information is due to the fact that actors and directors on blacklist won't be in a position to find work. This would result in studios losing money as the actors and directors would have to go out on their own. They would also cut back on their spending on movies. Which would mean fewer opportunities for the blacklisted filmmakers. They would then go bankrupt.
This could mean more victims.
A contract may be required to agree to not speak against employers if someone attempts to make an Oscar winning movie. For any producer or director that wants to be nominated, the same applies.
Producers often pressure directors to cut scenes from their films. Or directors threaten to walk out of projects that don’t match their vision.
This is the reason there is a Hollywood blacklist. If you speak negatively about your employer, you will likely be fired. This is bad news for anyone.
It is not uncommon for people to be falsely accused. They have had to fight for their freedom.
This must be stopped before it happens again. Everybody should be able to freely express themselves.

What is the most intriguing fact about the human anatomy?
Two eyes, two ears and two nostrils are part of our bodies. We also have four limbs: a mouth, nose, penis, and four limbs. We have over 50 parts of our bodies. However, one thing is missing. A heart.
A heart is the pump that circulates blood throughout a body. The blood moves through the arteries and veins to transport oxygen and nutrients into the cells, and remove carbon dioxide.
Each minute, the heart pumps 5 liters of blood. This is equivalent to a person drinking 2-3 cups coffee daily.
Blood flows throughout the heart 24 hours per day, 365 Days a Year. While you are sleeping, your heart beats about 100 times per second.
The color of someone's skin can tell if they are healthy or not. The capillaries are tiny blood vessels that can be seen on the skin's surface. These small vessels carry blood away from the large blood vessels in the skin back to the heart. The skin turns blue or violet when blood flow becomes blocked.
People suffering from sickle cell disease have no red blood cells. Their blood becomes extremely sticky and hardened, which can lead to very serious illnesses.
You can use a bandage to stop bleeding if your cut is severe. The wound must remain open for blood to flow properly. Doctors will insert a needle under the skin to access the vein near the injury. This allows blood flow to the area that has been injured.
A doctor can also insert tubes (catheters), into an artery in the vicinity of where blood clots form. This keeps the patient occupied until the clot is broken down naturally.

Hollywood scandals that shocked the globe
Nothing is more shocking that seeing someone be famous for their wrong reasons. There's nothing more shocking than watching someone fall from grace.
The best part is seeing how an industry reacts to its mistakes. Many celebrities have used alcohol and drugs in excess. Some even died young because of it.
The worst thing is when these stars are made public about their problems and shunned. This is where we ended up last week.
Heath Ledger died after a long, successful career. He succumbed after taking too many prescription medications. After a brief struggle with death, he died.
His family and close friends had difficulty accepting his death. The media took to him publically.
Heath was once regarded as one of the best actors today. His performances in Brokeback Mountain earned Heath two Academy Award nominations.
Heath, in addition to acting, also wrote and directed films such as A Knight's Tale (Monster's Ball) and Iron Man (3).
Hollywood loved Heath but he grew too large for his boots. He started to use drugs and drink heavily. He was eventually able to get clean and went to rehab.
Now that he was sober, it was time to make amends. He produced a documentary called Room 237 that documented the making process of The Shining. It was supposed to be released this year, but now it won't hit theaters until next year.
Heath tried many times to get back into Hollywood. Nothing worked. In fact, he was actually twice arrested for drug-related charges.
We are not suggesting that Heath should be allowed back into the show business. However, it would have been nice if he could have gotten some help before things spiraled out of control.
We hope Heath's story will serve as a warning to others who may think they can still have everything.
