Sirius XM details GoogleTV app ahead of the I/O party

The fine folks at Sirius XM just couldn't wait for Google I/O to kick off. Yesterday the satellite radio giant tipped off Reuters (not that it was the only one "spilling the beans," mind you), and today it's offering up even more information on its upcoming Google TV offering. The app, still slated for a broad 2012 release, will be available as a free download for US subscribers via the Google Play store. The list of features includes Start Now, which lets users listen to programming from up to five hours prior, pausing / fast forwarding / rewinding and Tune Start, which brings up the beginning of an already played song. Also on-board is the Show Finder, a program guide that lets subscribers set show alerts. The company will be demoing the product later this evening at I/O. In the meantime, check out the press release after the break.

Boehner says deal near on highways, student loan

WASHINGTON (AP) ? House Speaker John Boehner says bipartisan agreements are near to prevent interest rates on student loans from rising and to revamp the nation's transportation programs.

The Ohio Republican spoke to reporters Wednesday, a day after the Senate's Democratic and Republican leaders said they'd reached a compromise that would prevent 3.4 interest rates on subsidized Stafford loans from doubling beginning with new loans starting this Sunday.

Separately, government authority to spend money on highways, bridges and transit systems expires Saturday, as does its ability to levy gasoline and diesel taxes. Congressional leaders have working for months to find a compromise on the transportation measure, but have been stymied by disputes over environmental reviews of highway projects and other issues.

Congress is hoping to leave town for its July 4 recess by week's end.

SongFic[June] "What is real - just a dream"

I can't be
Losing sleep over this
No I can't
And now I cannot stop pacing

Her feet were begging her to sit down, but the anxiety that fueled her would not relent. Jaqlyn was crashing again, and this time no comfort would come from the voices in her head.

Give me a few hours
I'll have this all sorted out
If my mind would just stop racing

There was so much momentum to her thoughts, one turned to the next which turned to the next. It was endless and cycling, she slid down against the wall in her ship. There was silence all around her and the echoes of her former selves faded into the pausing of her heartbeats. Now her hands were trembling, denying her the ability to simply slip into rest.

Cause I cannot stand still
I can't be this unsturdy
This cannot be happening

How many times had she flirted with the edge of sanity? How close had she come to the verge of what she now let herself fall into?

This is over my head
But underneath my feet

Breathe, Jaq. In an out. It was simple yet oh so challenging...For with each breath out she felt how empty her body was, and with each breath in, she re-committed herself to living.

Cause by tomorrow morning I'll have this thing beat
And everything will be back to the way that it was
I wish that it was just that easy

One does not simply sub come to their subconscious' desires, they are undermined by them. Every day that she had lied to herself and said that she was fine, that everything would be okay, was just one more reason for her psyche to collapse. In a city with so many people, it was a marvel that she managed to feel so alone. The pit she was clawing at the sides of was one she had dug herself. Living under the crippling fear of rejection, she drew herself away from instances in which she might be rejected. One by one her friends turned away from her, not because they wanted to, but because Jaq gave them no reason to stay.

Cause I'm waiting for tonight
Then waiting for tomorrow
And I'm somewhere in between
What is real
Just a dream

Jaqlyn lifted her trembling hands to clutch at her temples, fingers going back into the onyx strands that capped her head. She was so frightened by her current state and yet she couldn't flee from it. Staying here, wallowing in this misery, that is what she assigned herself to endure. She wasn't worth rescuing, after all.
Would you catch me if I fall out of what I fell in

Don't be surprised if I collapse down at your feet again
I don't want to run away from this
I know that I just don't need this

Would no one come for her? Who was left? Acquaintances? Could she not be her own champion? Surely not. Not when she couldn't string two logical statements together.

Cause I cannot stand still
I can't be this unsturdy
This cannot be happening

A swallow was pushed hard down her throat as she took in a pill. Like candy, she took in another tablet and another, crowding her tight throat with the drugs. This would help, yes...Numb it all away.

Cause I'm waiting for tonight
Then waiting for tomorrow
And I'm somewhere in between
What is real
Just a dream

There would be no end to it. Tomorrow wouldn't come until she could exist in today. The trembling took over her whole form as she slowly curled on the metal floor of her empty ship. No one would find her here and the fallacies of her mental state would play out as a dream for her.

What is real
Just a dream

Keeping Up With the Kardashians Recap: Scott Disick and Bruce Jenner are Just Friends!

On Sunday night's installment of Keeping Up with the Kardashians, the gang went on an extra special, totally relaxing, not at all staged family vacation.

Which of the girls almost pulled a no-show and why? Would Kris tell Bruce about Todd Waterman? What caused a big rift between Bruce and Scott?

Find out in THG's +/- Keeping Up recap!

"This just doesn't feel right, like I'm sneaking around. And maybe the healthiest thing for me to do is just not see Todd." - Kris Jenner. Ya think? Plus 20.

"Ever since Kourtney got pregnant she's extra-indecisive, extra-hormonal and it's really frustrating." - Kim. Imagine how Scott feels, girlfriend. Minus 10.

At the speedway, Bruce introduces Scott as his "friend." Ouch! Plus 70.

Scott Disick is steamed and storms off, but sympathy is limited here. He may not be the worst guy in the world, but if you don't propose after that long ...

Khloe surprises the fam in the Dominican Republic early. Plus 5?

Bruce decides Kim should date Eric, the local golf pro. Does he meet her list of criteria? He's no Kanye West. Still, a nice Plus 5 to Bruce for trying.

Kim Kardashian tells the fam Kourt and Scott didn't make it. Rough. Minus 5.

Kris gets a bit boozy and decides to go jet skiing. Minus 10.

"My mom is really nuts. I don't think you're supposed to operate vehicles or heavy machinery once you're heavily intoxicated, and this b!tch just decides to get on a jet ski with her prized possession on the back, Kim." - Khloe. Plus 90.

The girls paint themselves in some tribal fashion to perform a faux sacrifice. Plus 10 for having fun. Minus 10 because we wish we could get sacrificed.

Minus 10 more for Bruce's earrings.

Kourtney and family do show up, eventually, but Scott notes, "I'm not that excited to see Bruce because I've heard that he's been going around talking bad about me. It's pretty immature." Takes one to know one, but Plus 5.

Scott tells Rob Kardashian that he has "no real connection" with Bruce, has "no interest in a relationship" with him and doesn't like that Bruce thinks he's Mason's grandfather. Talk about hitting a nerve! Let it go, B. Minus 10.

Kourt lets the Todd Waterman thing slip at dinner. Minus 30.

Bruce learns that she and Todd have been communicating and walks out of dinner. The rest of the family takes his side, immediately. Plus 40.

"I can't believe that everybody just once again, deserts me at dinner. You're gonna all make up your own little scenario in your head and you won't listen to one little thing I have to say, which is the truth." - Kris.

Come on lady. How do you expect them to take it? Minus 130.

EPISODE TOTAL: +10. SEASON TOTAL: -390.

PARIS (AP) ? NBA star Tony Parker may miss the London Olympics after almost losing his eye in a fight involving singer Chris Brown and members of hip-hop star Drake's entourage.

Parker's cornea was scratched in the fight, and the San Antonio Spurs guard revealed he had to have an operation to remove a shard that had "penetrated 99 percent" of his left eye.

"I almost lost my eye," Parker said in an interview posted on his website Sunday.

He did not join the rest of France's team Wednesday and will see a specialist in New York when he is cleared to take long-haul flights after July 5.

"I'm seeing a specialist in New York with the hope of being given the all clear to play in the Olympic Games," Parker said. "Spurs are very worried.

"Anything can happen, including me being out of the Olympics. The decision doesn't belong to me anymore. It's in the hands of the doctor and San Antonio."

Parker said he has been having hallucinations and been unable to leave his hotel room for eight days because of the risk of infection. He also has to apply five different products into his eye every two hours.

"Fear sets in," Parker said of being told he would have to undergo surgery. "An eye is so fragile. ... I couldn't believe it. But that's life. I was in the wrong place at the wrong time.

"I didn't have luck, but I came out well from my misfortune. It could have been worse. The rest of my career is not in question. I just have to wait for the injury to heal itself."

Despite being unable to play, Parker will spend the rest of his time in France with the French squad in Pau.

France's first game at the Olympics is against the United States on July 29.

Chris Brown, his girlfriend and his bodyguard were among eight injured during the fight inside the W.i.P club in SoHo on June 15. Police say members of Drake's entourage stopped Brown as he was leaving. The fight escalated and bottles were thrown.

Parker is suing the New York City club for $20 million.
