Jeopardy!’s ongoing winner Stephen Webb went against policy director Jessica Ashooh and Long Nguyen, a retired engineer, during the March 14 episode of the trivia show. But could he increase his total winnings of $139,281 in his sixth game tonight? The three went into Double Jeopardy, with Stephen leading with $9,600, Long following up with $5,800, and Jessica alongside $3,400. Jessica immediately gets a Daily Double when the round begins in the category Literary London: “This 1881 Mark Twain novel takes place in London’s poorer areas as well as in some of its ritzier locales.” She, unfortunately, got it wrong and lost all of her earnings, betting it all. Loing gets the second Daily Double during Double Jeopardy in the category Scrambled U.S. History: “1820s announcement: No credo on merit,” then betting it all when he proclaims he’s from Vegas. Unfortunately, his answer was wrong; it was, in fact, the Monroe Doctrine.

When last we saw Hetty (played by two-time Teen Choice Action Actress winner Linda Hunt), her Vietnamese captor Dang (Long Nguyen) had decided that she was a far more valuable, intel-rich commodity to be auctioned off than the long-missing Harris Keane. In the exclusive clip above, we see where Hetty has since been stowed away for safe keeping — yet no cramped confines can crush her spirit,...

If your hair is on the shorter side and you're dedicated to growing it out, or if your hair won't seem budge past that mid-point length no matter how hard you try to grow it out, it's likely frayed and just plain dehydrated. Getting your hair in shape this season is all about replenishing moisture and keeping ends healthy. For luscious locks like January Jones' and Anne Hathaways's, celeb hairstylist Long Nguyen shares his tips for how stars keep their...

Seven Psychopaths is the highly-anticipated sophomore effort from Irish playwright-turned-screenwriter-director Martin McDonagh. This bloody yarn about a writer who gets involved in the kidnapping of a crime lord.s beloved Shih Tzu, is mostly terrific entertainment packed with great dialogue, one-liners, music, and plot twists, but it lacks the heart of McDonagh.s debut film In Bruges and it.s less successful in its second half. Seven Psychopaths tells of Marty (Colin Farrel), an alcoholic Irish screenwriter struggling for inspiration for his latest script titled entitled Seven Psychopaths (he can.t really get beyond the title and page one: Ext. Los Angeles Streetcorner. Day.). Psycho #1 is inspired by the Jack of Diamonds Killer, a red-masked gunman offing gangsters in La who we meet in a bloody prologue featuring Michael Pitt and Michael Stuhlbarg as a pair of short-lived hit men.

Starring: Porter Lynn, John Ruby, Melinda Bennett and Long Nguyen
With a deft piece of editing, the opening montage of “Touch” delivers a promise that, despite a no-name cast and filmmaker, we’re in for something special about a very specific community.
A light comedy painted with brushstrokes of both drama and humor, the film’s core is constituted by Tam (Porter Lynn), a quiet nail technician who is a magician at bedazzling her client’s fingertips, and Brendan (John Ruby), a male mechanic embarrassed by his grease-stained hands who is seeking help with a condition that has become a point of consternation for his wife. From moment one of Brendan’s meeting Tam, it’s clear that Tam’s touch and attention, two things clearly missing from his relationship, enchant the first-timer.
