Enterprising icon: 'Star Trek' star William Shatner brings 'Wrath of Khan' tour to Oklahoma
William Shatner has occasionally taken the opportunity over the years to sit in the back of a movie theater and watch audiences watching him. "It's fascinating, actually, to see all these upturned faces lit by the light from the screen, so there's like a silver glow over everybody's face and mostly they're having rapt attention to one degree or another," he said. "You see people totally focused on what you are doing up there. It's the strangest feeling. I don't like to do it too much 'cause it gives me a strange feeling." These days, Shatner, 88, prefers to "stay out of the way" backstage until the movie ends and then appear on stage in front of audiences.

'We’d love to see people use their tickets': Sooners, like most of college hoops, struggle to draw fans
NORMAN — Lloyd Noble Center was a stunning sight Wednesday night. The seats behind the baskets were virtually all empty for the OU-Iowa State basketball game.

But the attendance was alarming: a school-estimated 4,240, with 8,235 tickets sold. It might have been the smallest crowd for a conference game in 40 years. Kenny Mossman didn’t sleep well Wednesday night, having just come from the game. “Disappointed is probably the word that

Stranger Things season 4 teaser confirms a seemingly-dead character's return
He's not dead, Jim! Netflix on Friday dropped a surprise teaser for the fourth season of Stranger Things, which ends with a massive reveal: Jim Hopper is still alive. Stranger Things' third season wrapped up with the emotional apparent death of David Harbour's character, although a popular fan theory suggested he secretly survived. The finale's final scene cryptically referred to an "American" who the Russians were holding prisoner, and although we never see this unidentified person, fans believed it to be Hopper. A teaser released Friday seems to confirm that, showing Hopper at what looks to be a Russian prison camp. Even though Hopper's survival was a popular fan theory, many assumed Netflix would attempt to keep his return a secret up until the release of the new season, similar to how HBO's marketing for Game of Thrones' sixth season kept up the charade that Kit Harington wouldn't be back as Jon Snow. But Netflix has opted for the opposite approach, getting the return of Hopper right out of the way in the…

Trump has already tweeted about Barr's interview complaining about his tweets
President Trump has a message for Attorney General William Barr: I will never log off.

By Seymur Mammadov The official visit of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan to Pakistan will be another milestone in further strengthening bilateral relations between the two countries in all areas. The two countries have always maintained and continue to maintain fraternal relations and in difficult times stand shoulder to shoulder with each other both in the fight against terrorism and at the international level, especially with regard to Ankara’s principled, unchanging position on the Kashmir issue.

Syrian Army approaches important town to cutoff last militant supply line from Aleppo to Idlib
BEIRUT, LEBANON (12:45 P.M.) – The situation in northwestern Syria is getting worse by the day for the militant forces, as they now find themselves on the verge of losing their last supply line between Idlib and Aleppo. READ ALSO: Russian Military Announces Aleppo-Damascus Highway is Fully Under Syrian Army Control According to a Syrian military source in the provincial capital of Aleppo, the Syrian Arab Army is approaching the strategic town of Al-Atareb, which is located along the main road between Aleppo and Reyhanli (Turkish city).

Should the Syrian Army capture Al-Atareb and push Sarmada, the entire militant-held pocket in northwestern Syria will be split in two, with Aleppo and Idlib only being accessible from Turkish territories.

"We were sort of fascinated with like, 'What if we tried to make a song — like an actual good song — by using AI and basically creative directing AI?'” explains Ned Lampert, executive creative director at Space150. “And so we chose Travis Scott just because he is just such a unique artist and he has a unique sound and everything sort of has

In 2008, a fire at the Universal Studios Florida lot raged through and devastated a warehouse where Universal Music Group had been keeping decades' worth of master recordings.

And now Universal has been forced to admit to some of the damage done in that fire. According to Rolling Stone, Universal has filed documents admitting that master recordings from 19 artists were destroyed or damaged in the fire.
