			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Late night talker Jimmy Kimmel visited with David Letterman last night on the Late Show with David Letterman and admitted to verbally punching Jay Leno during the recent late night talkshow verbal onslaught on Leno.</p>
<p>Letterman heaped praise on Kimmel, &#8220;I can&#8217;t tell you how much I enjoyed your participation in the Jay Leno scandal,&#8221; said Letterman, referring to current ongoing latenight soap opera we&#8217;ve all been watching. Leno now has replaced Conan O&#8217;Brien as host of The Tonight Show.</p>
<p>Letterman kept encouraging Kimmel to keep up the attacks even though Kimmel and Leno are friends. &#8220;He went on The Oprah Show and said I sucker-punched him,&#8221; Kimmel said. &#8220;He&#8217;s always running to tattle to Oprah whenever something happens, and I didn&#8217;t feel like I did sucker-punch him. But then I looked it up in the dictionary and it turns out I did.&#8221; Neither Kimmel or Letterman offered any apologies during the interview.</p>
<p>Kimmel received much attention for appearing on Leno&#8217;s old show to answer 10 questions, but turned his answers into an assault on Leno. Kimmel also did show long imitation of Leno in January, putting on a grey wig and a prosthetic chin that made him resemble a crazed looking Leno. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Conan O’Brien, who is well regarded as one of the world’s most successful talk show hosts and comedians, appears to be working on a new deal with the Fox television network to start a new late night talk show. O’Brien previously hosted “The Tonight Show,” which is one of the highest rated and highest budgeted talk shows on television.</p>
<p>While know official statements have been made in regards to a partnership between O’Brien and Fox, reports have stated that the comedian recently submitted an outline of a new show idea. It is widely believed that Fox has been interested in O’Brien ever since he left the NBC network following a dispute earlier this year. O’Brien has previously worked with the Fox network as he was a lead writer on “The Simpsons” for a long period of time.</p>
<p>To start a new show on Fox, O’Brien most likely will be required to accept a low budget. The $50 million production budget that came with “The Tonight Show” on NBC is likely to be well out of reach for the Fox network.</p>
<p>O’Brien is presently preparing for a live comedy tour which will span 30 different cities. There are rumors that the tour will be taped and possibly turned into a movie. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Most women go on a diet to lose weight, but not Donna Simpson. The 42 year old mother, only weighs 602 pounds. Yes, just 602 pounds, her goal is 1000 pounds. Why would somebody want to become morbidly obese? Money and fame.</p>
<p>The New Jersey woman has made headlines already with her declaration to become the world’s heaviest woman and her fifteen minutes of fame appears to be getting an extension. She has reportedly been offered a reality TV show deal and a book deal. Her manager reports he has been fielding phone calls from Oprah and Dr. Phil.</p>
<p>She supports herself with money she makes from a personal website that shows her eating. Men pay to watch Simpson gorge on food while wearing skimpy clothing, including a bikini. These men have fat fetishes and get a thrill out of seeing extremely overweight women.</p>
<p>Simpson has increased her caloric intake to 12,000 calories a day in order to reach her ideal weight. She already holds the record for heaviest mother when she gave birth via caesarean section when she was 530 pounds. She has her sights set on a heaviest woman record but the current record holder died when she weighed 1,600 pounds.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>According to Leon Panetta, who is the director of the CIA, Al-Qaeda is on the run and are being driven further underground.  Panetta stated that recent military strikes in Pakistan have seriously lowered morale throughout the terrorist camps.  He also referenced an intercepted message in which a member of the terrorist group plead for Osama Bin Laden to rescue a group. </p>
<p>Through the use of real time intelligence received from Pakistan’s security officials, the US military has been able to send out missile strikes that are able to disrupt Al-Qaeda operations.  Panetta further stated that in recent months, the missile strikes conducted have led to the death of nearly half of the terrorist group’s top officials as well as hundreds of other lower ranked soldiers. </p>
<p>According to reports, the US killed another top Al-Qaeda official on Wednesday.  Through the use of another missile strike, the military was able to take the life of Hussein al Yemeni in Miram Shah.  Yemeni was widely believed to have played a large role in the bombing of a CIA post in the southern side of Afghanistan in December 2009.   </p>
<p>Panetta further stated that by targeting Yemeni in Miram Shah, the military sent a message that says terrorists will not be able to hide in populated cities. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A man suffering from sinus cancer and an inoperable brain tumor is doing what he can to support himself. Joseph Casias uses medical marijuana to manage the pain and other symptoms associated with his illness. The 29 year old was recently fired from his long term job as a Wal-Mart associate because of his medical marijuana use.</p>
<p>The young man says he never went to work under the influence nor did he smoke the marijuana while on duty. After five years of employment, he was unexpectedly fired after a drug test revealed the marijuana in his system. The manager of the Wal-Mart store apologized to Casias but said the rules could not be bent, even in a legal use situation.</p>
<p>Wal-Mart spokesperson Greg Rossiter calls the situation “unfortunate” but states, they will not rehire the former associate of the year. Although medical marijuana is legal in fourteen states, there are no laws to protect users from job termination in drug-free companies.</p>
<p>Wal-Mart is just one of many companies that forbid drug use of any kind. Marijuana is still an illegal drug according to federal law. This makes a company liable if any injury occurs on the property at the hands of a medical marijuana user. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Emma Watson, who is well known for playing Hermione Granger in the “Harry Potter” movie series, has apparently developed a little bit of stage fright when it comes to performing in front of a live audience.  Watson, who is 19 years old, recently decided to attend Brown University in the United States and join a theatrical group that puts on free performances for students. </p>
<p>According to an entertainment blog, during a recent performance, Watson was noticeable nervous.  This came as a surprise to many of the attendants as she successfully and confidently portrayed characters on film since she was just 10 years old.</p>
<p>While Watson did show her nerves a little bit during the beginning of the show, the young actress fought through them courageously and put on an excellent performance.  The free performance ended with a standing ovation as everyone in the audience was mesmerized by Watson’s portrayal of Olga Sergeyevna Prozorova in Anton Chekhov’s “Three Sisters.”</p>
<p>While Watson appears to be succeeding well on the live stage, she will continue her movie career for at least the next couple years.  The final chapter of the “Harry Potter” series is presently filming and is expected to be released in the summer of 2011. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In a strange attempt to convince infertile women to try in-vitro fertilization, a seminar gave away a free session of in-vitro fertilization – donated eggs included. This has sparked an ethical controversy worldwide. People are aghast that human eggs were used as a door prize.</p>
<p>Sponsors of the event, the Genetics and IVF Institute of America, stated that this seminar and promotion was a way to encourage infertile women to participate in the in-vitro process. They continued to say that the use of the egg in the prize was singled out to create sensationalism. In fact, they were giving away a free in-vitro session, a $23,000 value, and the egg is just part of the treatment.</p>
<p>Protesters claim the company is dealing in body parts and that they have unethically used the very essence of life to promote their company and practice. The IVF Institute claims that the promotion was part of an educational tool used to encourage couples that there is help for their infertility problems.</p>
<p>There is currently no word if the Institute will continue this promotion when the host future seminars. Opponents as well as supporters will be carefully watching how this event unfolds to see if new regulations will come in place for fertility clinics. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Uganda’s Royal Tombs burned in a mysterious fire last evening. Home to four of the most revered kings of the country, onlookers cried in disbelief of the tragedy their heritage just suffered.</p>
<p>The people of this area are very dedicated to their ancestors and this fire represents a disgrace and act of war. The despised leader of the Ugandan government is thought to be behind the destruction of this heritage site. While the people, unarmed and afraid, are whispering these accusations, their thoughts may be true. The morning after the fire, as villagers cleaned the debris and wept, a military brigade swept in and “secured” the area.</p>
<p>Uganda’s leader, Mr. Museveni, arrived to tour the damage. Protesters tried to block his entrance to their scared tomb, but military personnel began firing shots. Three people were killed during the visit. Villagers find his unannounced visit a sure sign that he, or his lackeys, had something to do with the fire.</p>
<p>Knowing that the site can never be replaced, the villagers try respectfully to clean up the burial grounds of their beloved kings. Thousands of people have come to the tragic scene to look and to weep. No one is sure how they will recover from the loss of something so personal and important to their culture. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There used to be a program that ran for 208 episodes called the General Electric Theater. It was hosted by the late President Reagan. It ran from 1954-1962. The tapes once thought to be lost were found in the GE archives and delivered to Nancy Reagan. They were first restored to broadcast quality before being turned over to the former First Lady. The tapes will reside at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in Simi Valley California.</p>
<p>During the 1950&#8217;s Ronald Reagan, then an actor, traveled to all the GE plants as a goodwill ambassador. General Electric CEO Jeff Inmelt made the presentation. $10 million was also presented to the library by Mr. Inmelt, representing General Electric.</p>
<p>Ronald Reagan was born on February 6, 1911 and the presentation was for the coming centennial celebration of the former President&#8217;s birth. There will be a new museum at the library celebrating Ronald Reagan&#8217;s career in television, radio and in film. Some of the money will go for future scholarships.</p>
<p>Many people were not aware of Ronald Reagan&#8217;s long career in movies and on television as a host. His career was very eventful prior to becoming president. This was a nice gesture on the part of General Electric. </p>
