Award-winning star of stage and screen and noted civil rights activist Ruby Dee died at her home in New Rochelle, New York on Wednesday. She was 91. She died of natural causes, according to her representative Michael Livingston, as reported by CNN and other news outlets. Born in Cleveland in October 27, 1922 and raised in Harlem, Dee appeared in several Broadway plays in the '40s before her big screen breakthrough in 1950's "The Jackie Robinson Story," and she continued to appear in films, on TV and on stage in a career which lasted nearly 70 years. Often appearing alongside her husband Ossie Davis, Dee drew acclaim in films such as 1957's "Edge of the City" and 1961's "A Raisin in the Sun" (both opposite Sidney Poitier) and played a small but pivotal role in Spike Lee's quintessential 1989 film "Do the Right Thing." She also co-starred in ABC's 1994 adaptation of Stephen King's "The Stand.

Los Angeles -- It happened again. You just got burned in the esoteric band/book/film knowledge department by your average neighborhood hipster and the conversation has got you down in the dumps.
Here's something that'll make you feel better: "Hipster Confessions," new micro-comedy shorts by duo Michael and Raul of B4D TV.
The 30-second spots, written and directed by Los Angeles resident Michael Livingston, feature hipsters in an unusual light. They're completely genuine, uncharacteristically open and in full confession mode about their most shameful attempts to play it cool.
The series is based on "completely real" confessions, wrote Livingston in an email interview to The Huffington Post. Livingston and his comedy partner, Raul Villarreal, both live in Franklin Village -- a neighborhood that Livingston describes as "a hipster Mecca."
The duo plans to publish new videos every Tuesday, and today's video is about the hazards that come with dating fashionable hipster men.
