			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Aniston insists her loss &#8220;wasn&#8217;t to the extent of some of the others named,&#8221; but added, &#8220;I knew something like this would eventually happen because there&#8217;s no way you can get away with that.From a scandal involving her former hairdresser, to a slip of the tongue on Regis, to a war of words with Bill O&#8217;Reilly .</p>
<p>Jennifer Aniston, known for her gorgeous flowing locks, seems to have had some very bad hair days, at least in the past.Jennifer Aniston is having a tough week.Besides Aniston, Perez scammed Liv Tyler, Melanie Griffith, and Anne Hathaway.It&#8217;s terrible.Cher was also named in the indictment, but her representative says Cher was not a victim.That&#8217;s because a Hollywood hairdresser, Maria Gabriella Perez is accused of ripping off the credit card information from her ultra-wealthy clients &#8212; including Aniston &#8212; and fraudulently charging approximately $280,000 on their cards in a one-year period.Aniston probably wishes she had just stayed in bed.</p>
<p>It seems that on a visit to &#8220;Regis and Kelly&#8221; she made a slip, using a rather insulting word.The actress, doing television promotions for her new movie &#8220;The Switch,&#8221; now suddenly has another problem.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s not very much fun when you break up in a public relationship.Definitely most guys don&#8217;t have the same intentions that he does.So, maybe next time keep a secret.Despite her age, Lovato has already featured in the Disney Channel hit Sonny With a Chance, as well as the films Camp Rock, and Camp Rock 2 &#8211; she&#8217;s also released two albums, the second of which debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200, selling over 100,000 copies in its first week.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Snider is now the host of the nationally syndicated radio show House of Hair, and in July 2010, he and his family began appearing in the reality show Growing Up Twisted&#8217;, which aired on the Arts and Entertainment Network.Despite proposing the idea as a joke, the town dully took Snider up on his offer, leaving the rocker startled, he was quoted on a CNN.DEE SNIDER, the legendary former frontman of TWISTED SISTER is to have a small town in Ohio named after him.</p>
<p>Having a town change its name to mine-even though it is changing only a few letters-is one of the coolest things that&#8217;s ever happened to me&#8221;, adding, &#8220;It&#8217;s even better that we can support the March of Dimes work to give all babies a healthy start in life.Albeit for one day only, the town of Cridersville will become Sniderville on the August 21st 2010 with the musician set to host the local fundraiser Bikers for Babies.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s always nice to win a tournament and gradually feel your level improve and also to have a matches like [Mattek-Sands] and in Cincinnati &#8212; to be behind and fight back and win.I really felt that I had opportunities once I was in a rally with her, and she was either going to make a mistake or I could really try to make her move.Kim Clijsters breezed into the quarterfinals of the Rogers Cup with a 6-2, 6-1 win over Kaia Kanepi on Thursday.I was playing an opponent who could not miss a shot, while today Kanepi was missing a lot, especially since her strengths are usually her serve and her backhand,&#8221; Clijsters said.</p>
<p>Clijsters, who won the Cincinnati final last week in three sets over Maria Sharapova, had to outlast American Bethanie Mattek-Sands the night before.</p>
<p>I took a break and it worked.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Conservative commentator Ann Coulter has been told she is no longer welcome to offer the keynote speech at WorldNetDaily&#8217;s &#8220;Taking America Back National Conference&#8221; because she is speaking at an event sponsored by a gay Republican group.WorldNetDaily, a far right news website, posted on a story on its website stating that Coulter had been disinvited &#8220;because of her plan to address an event titled &#8216;HOMOCON&#8217; sponsored by the homosexual Republican group GOProud that promotes same-sex marriage and military service for open homosexuals.</p>
<p>In the flier for HOMOCON, she is described as &#8220;the right wing Judy Garland.</p>
<p>Coulter is then quoted saying that she often gives speeches to groups that she does not necessarily agree with.The drift of the conservative movement to a brand of materialistic libertarianism is one of the main reasons we planned this conference from the beginning.Ultimately, as a matter of principle, it would not make sense for us to have Ann speak to a conference about &#8216;taking America back&#8217; when she clearly does not recognize that the ideals to be espoused there simply do not include the radical and very &#8216;unconservative&#8217; agenda represented by GOProud,&#8221; WorldNetDaily&#8217;s editor and chief executive officer Joseph Farah said in the story.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Wednesday.The fungus, called Ophiocordyceps unilateralis, makes ants leave their colonies and head for a leaf that provides the ideal conditions for the parasite to reproduce.This leaf shows clear signs of one well-documented form of zombie-parasite, a fungus which infects ants and then manipulates their behavior,&#8221; Dr.David Hughes of Exeter&#8217;s School of Biosciences said.</p>
<p>Scientists at the University of Exeter say a fossilized leaf has revealed the oldest known evidence of the phenomenon, and gives clues to where and when such parasites evolved, a university release said Wednesday.According to the research, parasites that turned their hosts into &#8220;zombies&#8221; and controlled them via a macabre trick.Zombie ants may have crawled the Earth 50 million years ago, U.</p>
<p>This is, as far as we know, the oldest evidence of parasites manipulating the behavior of their hosts and it shows this parasitic association with ants is relatively ancient and not a recent development.The evidence we found mirrors very closely the type of leaf scars that we find today, showing that the parasite has been working in the same way for a very long time,&#8221; Hughes said.</p>

<p>Earlier this month, Staub told Life &#038; Style magazine, “I don’t know if there are talks right now about a third season of the show, but I’m more excited about talks of my spin-off than anything else.Danielle was told that she would not be returning for a third season,” the source tells the magazine.Despite the fact that she won’t be back to stir up more drama on The Real Housewives of New Jersey, Danielle Staub is hoping that her time on TV is not over.It “came as a complete shock, and she thought she was definitely going to return to the successful Bravo series,” the insider adds.Keep reading for more details on Danielle Staub’s departure and her plans for a spin-off show… Danielle Staub has been at the center of much of the controversy on Bravo’s hit reality TV show, The Real Housewives of New Jersey, so it’s not surprising her exit from the show is stirring up more drama.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Jeggings.It was really just a matter of time.Jeggings!It was a matter of time for all of us, really — because today, Good Morning America got on the bandwagon with a segment on jeggings, modeled by Juju Chang (I had been hoping for George Stephanopoulos).All right that’s quite enough from me.They feel like silk to touch, and sweatpants to wear.Well, she didn’t mention the ass part but ladies, that trick will never get old.The awesomeness of how they look with boots and heels and flats and sneaks and even flip-flops!She was right.Then on March 6th, via Foursquare, I was informed that one of my friends had bought jeggings (at Straweberry — yes it’s come to that).Then Styleite launched and I learned about jeggings the old-fashioned way: by very fashionable people posting pretty pictures that made me want things.Their expert (jeggspert?Could they possibly seem legit as one when so clearly falling into the family of the other?Jeggings!But why would you?I’ve been a little obsessed since I first heard about them back in the spring, because they seemed so crazy.Jeggings.Who cares, sign up, check in and then cause a scene at the register.</p>
<p>I have jeggings to wear, and worlds to conquer.And yet, the craziest of ideas are often the best, and jeggings may go down as one of the brilliant masterstrokes of humanity.I learned it in Grease 1 and Grease The jeggings they feature are from The Gap, and speaking of Foursquare, they had a deal with The Gap this weekend for 25% off with your Foursquare checkin.From then on, the jeggings seed was planted.Jeggings!They’re jeans!Remember in Anchorman when Will Ferrell sort of sing-songs, “I love Scotch.It worked for this lady.The fit!I love the way they look.I am much happier with my Genetic Denim Shane jeggings in Slink.The stretch!Well, that’s how I feel about jeggings.They extended that special, I believe for the week though I could be wrong.Lucky editor-at-large Elise Loehnen, pointed out that jeggings were everywhere now, and as low as $6 at Wal-Mart; that reminded me that I came very close to buying Hane’s jeggings in Canada at a combination post-office gift-shop, until my sister put her foot down.I love saying the word, again and again.</p>
<p>They look awesome and multi-faceted — as Juju Chang points out, you can bend down to show off your ass or to pick up your baby.Jeggings!I love the way they feel.The next jeggs-drop I got was from Gawker around the time of the Olympics, when I was distracted by mittens.Scotchy-Scotchy-Scotch”?I’m a bit late to the jeggings party, which Wikipedia says actually began in early 20 Oddly, a search for “jeggings” in my email inbox shows that my first exposure to the phenomenon came from — wait for it — Mike Allen of Politico, who helpfully explained the concept on December 20, 20 (Seriously, is there ANY beat that guy hasn’t got covered?The lift!And all wrapped up in the irresistible poetry of that delicious, fantastical word.The point is, jeggings are everywhere — resistance is futile.They’re leggings!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In 1973, he wed his latest wife, Tova Traesnaes, who heads a cosmetics company.They were saying, &#8216;All right, so he won the award for playing a good guy.This is what it&#8217;s all about &#8211; living,&#8221; he says in the film.</p>
<p>But what else can he do?It is with that same joyous spirit that we salute his impressive body of work and his steadfast generosity.That&#8217;s what it&#8217;s all about.If you can&#8217;t afford it, then I say get into an old automobile and go out and see America and have fun.The actor, who served in the Navy during World War II, won an Oscar for the 1995 romantic drama film Marty.The night that I won the Academy Award, I happened to to go to the gentlemen&#8217;s room and I heard a couple of fellows talking,&#8221; Borgnine said in a 1997 documentary that chronicled a road trip he had embarked on, called Ernest Borgnine on the Bus.The Connecticut native has starred in almost 200 television shows and movies, such as From Here to Eternity in 1953 and Escape from New York in 19 He also voices the superhero Mermaid Man in the animated children&#8217;s series SpongeBob SquarePants.</p>
<p>The SAG awards are set to take place on January 30, 20 Borgnine has been married five times, including to singer Ethel Merman, and has three daughters from two marriages.Ernest Borgnine, a 93-year-old actor who has been featured in classic movies as well as in SpongeBob SquarePants and is still acting, is set to be honored with the Screen Actors Guild Life Achievement Award at the 2011 SAG Awards.You&#8217;ll last longer, believe me.Borgnine is set to appear in at least four new movies, including Red, an action film starring Helen Mirren, Morgan Freeman, Bruce Willis and John Malkovich that is set for release on October &#8220;Whether portraying brutish villains, sympathetic everymen, complex leaders or hapless heroes, Ernest Borgnine has brought a boundless energy which, at 93, is still a hallmark of his remarkably busy life and career,&#8221; SAG president Ken Howard said in a statement. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Portman has previously admitted to Showbiz Spy that she was “terrified” about locking lips with Max Payne star, Kunis.Portman — who previously shot a nude scene for short film Hotel Chevalier — also admitted she’s worried the lesbian sex sequence is overshadowing the plot of the film and worries it will make her be taken less seriously as an actress .The project is a huge opportunity for me to show a new me.I can’t always play the nice mothers.Nudity is something absolutely natural and I’m not prudish — but in a film it can be distracting,” she said.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Kridel does admit it doesn’t look good for Giudice to be spending that kind of money after such publicly financial hardship.According to People.</p>
<p>However, he explains, “She needed to re-buy furniture because she didn’t have any furniture in the house,” adding, “It’s a big house and she wanted furniture consistent with her style on the show.Jim Kridel, said, “That was the money she earned as an advance for her book Skinny Italian,” adding, “Since she earned it after the filing, she was absolutely free to spend it.While publications have been reporting details of news that the Real Housewives of New Jersey star has spent $60,000 in a shopping spree after filing for bankruptcy last October, her attorney is coming to her defense.If she put it in the bank, they’d say, ‘Why don’t you pay your creditors,’ and the trustee might freeze the assets while he investigates whether she can spend it or not,” he says.Her attorney defends Giudice in the legal aspect of the situation as well, saying, “Legally you are entitled to spend money you earn after a bankruptcy.He also credits the reality star for doing so.There is nothing wrong with doing that, except that it doesn’t look good for her to be doing it.Teresa Giudice can’t catch a break when it comes to her financial situation.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Anti-Irish sentiment made 19th-century America a hostile place for the workers, who lived amid wilderness in a shanty near the railroad tracks.This was much more than a cholera epidemic,&#8221; William Watson said.The Watsons and their research team have recovered seven sets of remains since digging up the first shin bone in March 2009, following years of fruitlessly scouring the area for the men&#8217;s final resting place.One victim has been tentatively identified, pending DNA tests.</p>
<p>The land is now preserved open space behind suburban homes in Malvern, about 20 miles west of Philadelphia.Two skulls unearthed at a probable mass grave near Philadelphia this month showed signs of violence, including a possible bullet hole.Watson, chairman of the history department at nearby Immaculata University, and his twin brother Frank have been working for nearly a decade to unravel the 178-year-old mystery.</p>
<p>Another pair of skulls found earlier at the woodsy site also displayed traumas, seeming to confirm the suspicions of two historians leading the archaeological dig.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Jason LaCanfora on Twitter is reporting that there is ”a good chance” we could hear a decision from running back Brian Westbrook as early as today, and the leading team could be his hometown Redskins, which could have a significant impact on the fantasy landscape.We are already all too familiar with the relationship that quarterback Donovan McNabb has with Westbrook.</p>
<p>We already know that there are severe issues in the backfield in Washington that begin with high-mileage Clinton Portis and his sub-par camp thus far, and oft-troubled Larry Johnson, who hasn’t done much to impress.In McNabb&#8217;s career, he has thrown more touchdown passes to Westbrook than to any other player on the Eagles.</p>
<p>We already know that there are some questions regarding the skill level of the Redskins receiving corp outside of tight end Chris Cooley, so adding a double-threat like Westbrook would really sure up some things for the Redskins, and make them much more dangerous.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For unknown reasons, Mr Gibson steered his car to the right and struck the rock hillside,&#8221; the CHP said, adding that after making a statement to police officers at the scene, he &#8220;received a ride home from a friend.The road accident follows a troubled few weeks for the Australia-educated actor, who is under investigation for domestic violence after his former partner Oksana Grigorieva released recordings of abusive telephone calls he allegedly made.Actor-director Mel Gibson lost control at the wheel and crashed his Maserati into a rocky hillside in Malibu, but walked away unharmed, the California Highway Patrol said Monday.His arrest at the time exploded into a major scandal when he made anti-Semitic remarks to the highway patrol.</p>
<p>The accident late Sunday west of Los Angeles involved no other vehicle and the Oscar-winning actor was neither drunk nor under the influence of drugs at the wheel (DUI), the police said in a statement.He was sentenced to three years probation and fined 1,300 dollars, after undergoing alcohol rehabilitation.Gibson&#8217;s driving habits made the headlines in 2006 when he was arrested at the wheel with 5 times the legal blood-alcohol limit.His vehicle was towed from the scene, DUI is not suspected in the accident,&#8221; it added. </p>
