Sam Kass – Mr. Kass is the newest chef in the White House kitchen. Last night’s episode of ‘The Biggest Loser’ visited Kass at the White House Kitchen Garden, and now everyone wants to know what’s up with this culinary Adonis. The New York Times profiled him yesterday, claiming he’s never run a restaurant or a kitchen, but that he’s an integral participant in Executive discussions on improving the health of America’s youth. He also makes a killer Swiss chard frittata.

Sesame Street Anniversary – See those Big Bird feet in the “Google Doodle” today? Big Bird and ‘Sesame Street’ turn 40 today. That’s old. Especially when you consider a show that’s still running strong today. Next Tuesday, Nov. 10 a new season premieres. It will feature celeb hosts Michelle Obama, Cameron Diaz, Adam Sandler, Kobe Bryant, Ricky Gervais, and others.

Sarah De Herdt – Sarah De Herdt’s ex must be very mad at her. A couple days ago a torrent of raunchy pics were posted of the Belgian sprinter and bodybuilder. We’re talking naked squats in the weight room. Trainers biting her very firm hindquarters. Computer lab nudie web surfing. And worse. Kinda sucks for the girl. Let this be a lesson to us all.

“Patrick Swayze passed away peacefully today with family at his side after facing the challenges of his illness for the last 20 months,” his publicist, Annett Wolf, said in a statement Monday evening. Swayze died in Los Angeles, Wolf said, but she declined to give further details.

Fans of the actor were saddened to learn in March 2008 that Swayze was suffering from a particularly deadly form of cancer. He kept working despite the diagnosis, putting together a memoir with his wife and shooting “The Beast,” an A&E drama series for which he had already made the pilot.

Swayze said he opted not to use painkilling drugs while making “The Beast” because they would have taken the edge off his performance. The show drew a respectable 1.3 million viewers when the 13 episodes ran in 2009, but A&E said it had reluctantly decided not to renew it for a second season.

Swayze’s career waned in the late ’90s; for a long time, his most notable screen appearance was in the 2001 cult favorite Donnie Darko. In March 2008, he announced he had pancreatic cancer. Nonetheless, by July of that year, he was in sufficiently good health to begin working 12-hour days (while still undergoing chemotherapy) on a TV series, starring as a world-weary undercover FBI agent in the A&E crime drama The Beast, which premiered in January to 2.4 million viewers.

Madonna has come to Romania joined by her lover, Jesus, and her children. As long as she will be staying in Romania, the diva will travel with a special armoured bus, with an interior that looks just like one of a limousine. This kind of bus is used especially for the transportation of VIPs.

Premium Madonna tickets are in high demand now her summer tour is here and this is hardly surprising: Madonna is one of the most successful female pop artists in the history of pop music! Using potentially shocking political, sexual and religious themes in her songs, after more than two decades this legendary superstar of Catholic Italian descent is still incredibly popular throughout the world.

On May 28, 2009 Schnatter was announced as Honorary Chair of the Ride to Conquer Cancer benefiting Louisville’s Norton Cancer Institute. Schnatter will be riding in the two day cycling event that goes from Louisville to Lexington and back.

Papa John’s International Inc. founder John Schnatter, with help from an auto-enthusiast Web site operator, has tracked down the car he sold to help fund the launch of his pizza empire.

Schnatter sold the 1971 Z28 Camaro in 1983 and this spring launched a contest seeking to find the car. He initially offered a $25,000 reward for locating the car but raised the bounty to $250,000 when leads began to dry up.

The lyrics for Smile-Charlie Chaplin:

Smile
tho’
your heart is aching,
Smile
Even though it’s breaking,
When there are clouds in the sky- You’ll get by,
If you
Smile through your fear and sorrow,
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You’ll see the sun come shining through- For you.
Light up your face with gladness,
Hide ev’ry trace of sadness,
Altho’ a tear may be ever so near,
That’s the time you must keep on trying,
Smile- What’s the use of crying,
You’ll find that life is still worthwhile,
If you just smile.

I was quite shocked about the news of David Carradine’s death. At first it looked like suicide but later on when more information came out, it seems that Carradine died accidentally. But some people think that he was murdered.

David Carradine was a very talented actor. He had a long career in television, on stage and in the movies. He made an impression on many by the types of roles that he took. There was always a little mystery surrounding him as a person. He came across as a person who kept much of his life private; he was a shy person, according to some of his own statements. David came from a talented family of actors, so, it is no surprise that he was skilled at what he did.

Whether it was suicide or if David Carradine was murdered, there is still pain and grief for his family, friends, co-stars, and fans. It is a sad end for a talented man who appeared to try to live his life with dignity. We wish to extend sympathy to all who knew him; or, to those who felt like they did because of the roles he performed and, the impact on their lives from watching him over the years. Rest in peace David Carradine.

The internet is buzzing this morning with searches related to the death of David Carradine.

Ireland said 28-year-old Sakeena Shageer, also known as “Suki,” struck him while he was seated at the bar. Shageer, a registered exotic dance in Palm Beach County, is self-described as 5′1″ tall and 118 pounds.

Shageer, 28, - also known by her stage name “Suki” - is a registered exotic dancer in Palm Beach County, records show. In her 2004 application for a permit, she described herself as 5-foot-1 and 118 pounds.

Lytal believes Shageer spun around and struck Ireland in the face with her shoe. Even if it was an accident, he said, Ireland, a local businessman, was seriously injured in the incident at the suburban West Palm Beach nightclub.

Ireland suffered broken bones around his eye and in his nose and now has permanent double vision, Lytal said. Ireland has had one surgery and needs another.

Lytal said he was forced to sue after Cheetah’s insurance carrier refused to pay damages.
