True Blood : Give blood

Thanks Southern Accent blog ...

(No, this isn't about Edward Cullen, Sookie Stackhouse or the Vampire Diaries.)

I'm giving blood today at work and just thought I'd take a quick chance to remind others out there to do it too. It's pretty painless and they give you lots of great snacks and goodies afterwards.

According to the American Red Cross website:

• Currently only 3 out of every 100 people in America donate blood.


• 5 million people who receive blood transfusions every year, your donation can make the difference between life and death.


• Every two seconds, someone in the United States needs blood


• You will weigh less — one pint less when you leave than when you came in. (YES!!!)


• Nobody can ask you to do any heavy lifting as long as you have the bandage on. (Yippee - no laundry tonight!)


• You will be someone's hero — you may give a newborn, a child, a mother or a father, a brother, or a sister another chance at life. In fact, you may help save up to three lives with just one donation.

So, think about the benefits and don't be scared to give blood. And, contrary to some of the vampire stories out there, there is no substitute for human blood.

Forget Twilight's Robert Pattinson: The original Dracula's back

From Vancouver Sun

"My revenge has just begun! I spread it over centuries and time is on my side."

— Dracula, from Bram Stoker's Dracula

While today's vampires seem more intent on wining us than dining on us, something truly wicked this way comes. Again.

That seemingly toothless pretty-boy Edward Cullen better start baring his fangs, and True Blood's Bill Compton may want to go elsewhere to do his brooding and down his synthesized blood: Drac is back — and with him, a reminder that true vampires are far more monster than man.

Just when the pop cultural craving for all-things-vamp seems like it couldn't get any more bloodthirsty, Dracula is returning in a sequel to Bram Stoker's classic. Dracula: The Un-dead, co-written by Canadian Bram Stoker descendant Dacre Stoker, will be released Oct. 13.

From TV's The Vampire Diaries to Stephenie Meyer's Twilight saga, vampires themselves have changed dramatically from Stoker's late 19th-century classic novel. So, what sets Dracula apart from more sympathetic, humanized vamps such as Twilight's Edward or Anne Rice's vampire Lestat?

The answer is plain, simple — and bone-chilling, says Canadian Dracula expert Elizabeth Miller: the Dracula of Stoker's vision was pure "evil."

"He is someone to be feared, he is powerful. He is the (ultimate) bad guy," says Miller, an English professor emeritus from Newfoundland and Labrador's Memorial University who taught courses on Gothic English literature and is now the Canadian head of the Transylvanian Society of Dracula. "He was physically repulsive . . . If you look at these vampires today, you just want to ogle over them — they are just to die for. But . . . Stoker describes (Dracula) as being repulsive. He has bad breath, long pointed finger nails, pointed ears . . . Even though he has seductive power, it is not seductive power in the way we think of it today . . . It was more that he could read people's minds and had full control over them."

Stephen Moyer from 'True Blood' on CH 4 Uk

Sexy vampire drama True Blood has built up quite a following since it debuted Stateside a little over a year ago. Since then, two successful seasons have screened in the US, and season one is about to drop on Channel 4 - after a stint on FX - for UK terrestrial viewers. Recently, we caught up with resident vampire Bill Compton, aka actor Stephen Moyer, to find out what to expect from Alan Ball's latest creation, which also stars Moyer's real-life fiancé Anna Paquin in the role of psychic waitress Sookie Stackhouse. Hit 'play' below to watch Stephen talk vampires, sex and pork pies.

Vampire Hunting Kits: Travel-Sized Boxes of Pain & Vengeance

There's something so quaint and tidy about a kit for eradicating evil. Some of these vampire hunting kits are "authentic." Some were assembled by artists aiming to capture the antique beauty of the things. Others are straight up hoaxes.

1. The Old Fashioned Vampire Killing Kit with Garlic Syringe -- This one sold on Ebay. Supposedly dates to circa 1880 Romania. Contains knife, syringe (for garlic solution), metal teeth pliers (for removing fangs), miscellaneous crosses, and bottles of holy soil. Is it just me, or does that mallet look kind of small?

Stephen Moyer wants "vampire babies" with Anna Paquin.

The 'True Blood' actor - who stars in the US vampire drama alongside his co-star fiancee - can't wait to start a family.

He said: "What's in store in the future for Anna and I? Well, we're going to have little vampire babies."

Stephen fell for the 27-year-old actress when they were filming the 'True Blood' pilot in America.

He explained to thisislondon.co.uk: "From the moment I met Anna we got on really well. There was an immediate sense of play, we starting working well together. She's a superb actress. After the pilot I went back to London, she went to New York but we missed each other.

"It seems really organic and natural, it feels like the most normal thing in the world."

Stephen, who is originally from the UK, visits London as often as he can, and still gets a thrill when he glimpses the city from a plane.

He laughed: "I love it. When the airplane comes in and we go beneath the clouds and I see the grey and the wet on the streets my heart leaps - I'm usually the only one who's happy."

Michael Hogan reviews the first episode of the new vampire drama True Blood

The comforting sight of US cable channel HBO’s black and white logo – the one that precedes premium shows such as The Sopranos, Sex and the City and The Wire – signalled the terrestrial arrival of its latest eagerly awaited import, True Blood (Channel 4). This vampire drama’s already won a small but fanatical British following, having been tucked away on cable channel FX since summer, while smashing ratings records in the US. Last night the rest of us found out what the fuss is about.

As usual with HBO, the hype turned out to be justified. The first episode of True Blood was fangy, funny, stylishly shot and whip-smartly written by Alan Ball, the writer of American Beauty and creator of funeral parlour saga Six Feet Under, which was as fixated by death as True Blood and was also an HBO production. There was even a knowing scene where a mother told off her kids for watching horror on HBO.
