Jack White Headed For First #1 Album

'I've got another 12 songs that I haven't finished yet,' White says of his extra tracks for another LP.

It's hard to believe, but restless rocker Jack White has never scored a #1 album. Not with the White Stripes, or with any of his other side bands (the Dead Weather, the Raconteurs).

But according to Billboard estimates, that drought may end next week when the #1 six-string hustler is predicted to take the top spot with his solo debut, Blunderbuss.

The disc is expected to move between 100,000-120,000 copies in an otherwise slow week. Though White has landed seven top 10 albums with his various other groups, his highest chart debut or peak with them was the White Stripes' 2007 masterpiece, Icky Thump, which came in and peaked at #2.

It should come as no surprise that the man who has made a career at juggling 50 things at once, and who is also working on his first soundtrack album for Johnny Depp's "Lone Ranger"
 movie, has plenty more music in the can. In addition to the 12 tracks he recorded for Blunderbuss, White told England's Radio 1 DJ Zane Lowe that he's already got a stockpile of songs for a possible follow-up.

"We had enough for an album at one point, but I just kept going ... I've got another 12 songs that I haven't finished yet ... There's songs that White Stripes never really played live, or Raconteurs never really got that into, or songs that I brought to the table in a band - songs like '[I Cut Like a] Buffalo' - and now I can elaborate on them".

White is getting ready to hit the road with his unique band set-up, which consists of one all-male and one all-female crew
, who are not informed about whether they will play each night until just before the show. "The easy thing to do would be to go and find four or five guys to play in just like the record and stand behind me," he said. "I just didn't want to bore myself to death and bore people with that jazz and it just to just be some nostalgia thing."

Happy 70th Birthday, Barbra Streisand!


Barbra Streisand turned 70 this week. Seventy!

The star marked the milestone with a party to remember in Malibu, Calif., on Tuesday, celebrating with close friends and enjoying a performance by Johnny Mathis.

The legendary singer-actress was joined at Taverna Tony by 80 guests, including John Travolta, Warren Beatty, Pierce Brosnan and Keely Smith, Steven Spielberg and Kate Capshaw, her stepson Josh Brolin and Diane Lane, Kenny G and Donna Karan.

"It was an intimate magical event with only very close friends, people I've known and loved more than 20 years," Streisand personally told People.

"The highlight of the night was my son's film that he made for me. People kept asking, 'Who's that singing?' And when I said it was Jason, everyone was blown away by the soulfulness of his voice. Quincy Jones wanted to sign him on the spot."

"All my friends made it an evening full of surprises for me, flying in the remarkable Israeli mentalist Lior Suchard and gifting me with the performance of my favorite singer, Johnny Mathis, and many, many more highlights."

Happy birthday to one of the greats! In her career, Barbra has won two Academy Awards, eight Grammy Awards, five Emmy Awards and a Tony Award, one of a select few entertainers who have ever won all four. Not a bad resume.

Apple CFO Peter Oppenheimer: ?The New iPad Is On Fire?

peteroppenheimerIf you were one of the naysayers who thought that there wouldn't be a very strong consumer appetite for the newest twist on the already very popular iPad, it may be time to think again. Apple's top executives said today that just a few weeks after the new iPad's formal launch, the response to the company's latest iteration on the tablet has been incredibly strong -- and it's making an impact from a financial perspective. "We're just learning about the elasticity of demand and the $399 price point is doing well, but I have to tell you the new iPad is on fire and we're selling them as fast as we can make them," CFO Peter Oppenheimer said during the company's first quarter earnings call with investors, a sentiment that Tim Cook echoed verbatim later on in the call. This latest release, which saw three million devices sold in its first weekend alone, was Apple's fastest iPad rollout ever, he said.

Families around the world: Life in Guatemala

Can you imagine packing up your family and moving abroad? The thought may very well give you a slight panic attack or it may induce a little spark of curiosity. Either way, Families Around the World gives you a peek at American families living abroad -- from far off exotic places such as Abu Dhabi in the Middle East to the bustling metropolis of Rome and everywhere in between. Stay tuned for a look at what life is like raising a family away from home.

Meet the Barwell family

Picture this: You're given the chance to take a six-month sabbatical for work and have decided to use it as a chance to move abroad with your family. Where would you choose to go?

The Barwells, a family of six from Seattle, used this rare, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to move to Guatemala, a Central American country nestled between Belize, Mexico and Honduras. Of all places, why Guatemala? Denise Daniels Barwell tells us they knew they wanted to spend the six months in a Spanish-speaking area -- despite not being able to speak the language themselves -- as well as be in a developing country where they could teach their children, Josh, Samara, Danica and Zachary, to respect the amazing opportunities and wealth they have, in comparison to the rest of the world.

And after six months of being completely immersed in Guatemalan culture, schools and daily life, that's not all the Barwell family learned through this incredible experience.

Families around the world: Life in Paris >>

First impressions of Guatemala

"In our first few days, we were [in awe of] the security guards wandering around with very large guns, the wild dogs roving around the city (and with nobody picking up after them), the very colorful houses and markets, the immensely friendly people we encountered everywhere and a hugely different diet," Denise tell us.

The Barwell family happened to arrive in Antigua on New Year's Eve, which means they spent their night being greeted by a three-hour long fireworks display that lasted until 2:30 a.m!

Daily life in Central America... with four kids

Many moms who we've talked to for the Families Around the World series have reflected that daily life abroad is oddly similar to what their life was like at home, but there is no doubt life in Guatemala was taken at a slower pace for the Barwell family.

All four children attended school every day -- the older kids would leave at 6:30 a.m. via a 12-seat passenger van, sans seatbelts,? typically packed with 20 children -- and Zach left for preschool a couple of hours later. While the kids were at school, Denise and Craig would spend their mornings exploring Antigua or relaxing with some reading and a cup of coffee before meeting back together as a family around 1 p.m.

A typical afternoon for the Barwell family while living in Guatemala started with tutoring -- both for language and for homework for the children, which was done completely in Spanish -- followed by trips to the market, adventures checking out new or favorite parts of the city or playing with friends inside the gated, walled courtyard of their house.

Denise remarks, "Without ballet, soccer, swimming and chess club, we had much more time together as a family. Because most of the Guatemalan kids we knew weren't involved in the many hectic activities of our kids' American peers, we never felt like we were missing out on something."

Families around the world: Life in Rome >>

Reflections on life abroad

Before they left Guatemala, each family member wrote a list on their family blog of what they would miss most and what they'll miss least about living in Guatemala. From the "will miss it" list is the friendliness of strangers, soccer and not having to wear seatbelts in the car. And from the "won't miss it one bit" list, the poop on the streets makes the list of every single family member, along with mosquitos and riding the very full bus to school every morning.

"Did we really step off the plane and onto this treadmill already?"

Also on their family blog, Denise writes about their re-entry to their life in Seattle upon returning from Guatemala. She is amazed at how quickly they leaped right back into their old routines -- running from birthday parties to swim lessons to shopping trips without batting an eye. "Did we really step off the plane and onto this treadmill already?" She reflects, "Have we learned nothing from our six-month sabbatical?"

However, she also tells us the time they spent together in Guatemala was irreplaceable, commenting that having to rely on each other more than they typically do at home and spending so much time together was healthy for every family member.

2 Chainz Tells Fans To 'Expect A Lot Of Surprises' On Debut

MC tells MTV News Based on a T.R.U. Story, which features Kanye West, will have 'substance.'
By Rob Markman

There are certain benefits that come with being one of the hottest up-and-coming talents in the rap game; just ask 2 Chainz.

"I'm working with people like Kanye, of course. I'm in a good creative space right now," Deuce told MTV News about his mindset while putting the finishing touches on his debut solo album Based on a T.R.U. Story."I'm able to get my hands on a lot of things that I need. I have access to a lot of artists right now. I have great production."

We caught up with the MC formerly known as Tity Boi on the set of MTV2's upcoming game show "Hip Hop Squares" and spoke about what fans can expect from his highly anticipated Def Jam release. "You can expect a lot of surprises. I like to bring the element of surprise back in hip-hop; bring the enjoyment and anticipation," he said. Fans will have to wait until August 14 to get their hands on the LP, but the Atlanta rap virtuoso plans to release a single entitled "No Lie" on May 1. "I don't wanna leak a record right now, I'm doing so many features and 'Riot' is doing so well I don't want to cause any kind of confusion."

To say he's doing well is a bit of an understatement. 2 Chainz is currently featured on Young Jeezy's "SupaFreak," Nicki Minaj's "Beez in the Trap" and Kanye West's latest G.O.O.D. Music single "Mercy." His current solo single, "Riot," is quickly becoming a staple for hip-hop mixshow radio DJs.

For the most part, 2 Chainz is classified as a trap rapper whose material mainly revolves around the drug game and street life. With Based on a T.R.U. Story, he plans to change all of that. "From me you can expect concepts; you can expect things that you can think about, substance," he explained. "Although I have a trap background and I'm heavy with the street credibility, I also have the mind frame to expand a few ideas and some current events, ya dig?"

What kind of surprises are you hoping to hear on 2 Chainz's debut? Leave your comment below!

Dog Patch Labs Says It?s Kicking It From Dublin. Can Incubators Solve Europe?s issues?

Dogpatch_Dublin_sept302011Dogpatch Labs, the incubator backed by Polaris Ventures, is perhaps most famous for helping out startups like Instagram, TurntableFM, Mixel, FancyHands and Formspring in their early days, out of offices in the Bay Area, NYC or Cambridge. It's definitely had a higher profile in the U.S. than in Europe where it launched a Dublin-based offshoot 6 months ago. However, that move appears to be paying dividends, with DPL saying it has seen six investments of $1M or more already. These include funding rounds for Profitero, the pricing intelligence for retailers, which announced a $1M investment by Irish VC Delta Partners.

Another reason to buy gold: nanoparticles help to kill brain tumors

Another reason to buy gold: nanoparticles help to kill brain tumors

Stanford scientists have used lab-made gold nanoparticles to highlight malignant tissue in the brain, making it easier for surgeons to cut out tumors while leaving healthy bits in tact. Measuring just five millionths of an inch in diameter, these tiny glistening orbs are injected into the patient and then left to bleed out through leaky blood vessels in parts of the brain that have been damaged by the disease. They then get stuck in the bad tissue itself, marking it out for the scalpel when viewed with the right type of imaging. It's not totally new -- we've actually seen gold nanotech deployed against the Big C in stem cells before, but better to be useful than avant-garde.
