HOLLYWOOD DIRT OVERFLOW (03-08-11)
SHEEN-ANIGANS
Charlie Sheen Has Been Fired By Warner Brothers . . . But He Still Thinks He's Winning:
It finally happened yesterday: Warner Brothers FIRED CHARLIE SHEEN . . . meaning that unless they have a change of heart, his time on "Two and a Half Men" is THROUGH. --Warner Brothers issued a statement saying, quote, "After careful consideration, Warner Brothers Television has terminated Charlie Sheen's services on 'Two and a Half Men' effective immediately." --They did NOT say anything about cancellation. Which means that we now have to spend an undetermined amount of time speculating over who might replace Charlie IF the show goes on. --In Charlie's world, he's still WINNING, of course. And he claims he's HAPPY he was fired. --He issued a statement saying, quote, "This is very good news. They continue to be in breach, like so many whales. --"It is a big day of gladness at the Sober Valley Lodge because now I can take all of the bazillions, never have to look at [what's his face] again and I never have to put on those silly shirts for as long as this warlock exists in the terrestrial dimension." (--Charlie didn't actually say "what's his FACE". He used a different word instead of "face". It's a euphemism for the male reproductive organ, and it rhymes with ROCK.) --Just in case Charlie had any questions about his termination, Warner Brothers sent his lawyer an 11-page letter spelling out why they canned him. (--You can see the whole thing here.) --Here are some of the highlights . . . --Warner Brothers gets right to the point, saying, quote, "At the outset, let us state the obvious: Your client has been engaged in dangerously self-destructive behavior and appears to be very ill." --The letter states that efforts were made to help Charlie by giving him time off, reaching out to his family . . . and even offering a private plane to take him to rehab after his most recent hospitalization, which he refused. --But the letter adds, quote, "Regrettably, Mr. Sheen failed to continue with his rehabilitation program. --"The result has been a series of well-chronicled and increasingly erratic outbursts that have culminated with Mr. Sheen's public tirades of the last few weeks." --Those tirades were marked by, quote, "inflammatory comments" that were "poisoning key working relationships." Obviously, they're mostly referring to Charlie's relationship with CHUCK LORRE. --Despite Charlie's claim that he always showed up on the set ready to work, Warner Brothers says he had, quote, "difficulty remembering his lines and hitting his marks." --They also noted that his lifestyle was causing a CHANGE IN HIS APPEARANCE. In other words, he's getting noticeably thinner. Like, crack-addict thinner. --And yes, there's a section in his contract on INCAPACITY. And it includes, quote, "Any material change in Performer's appearance or other attributes." --And they lumped all his recent behavior . . . including his public outbursts, hotel trashings and coke binges . . . under a heading of, quote, "felony offenses involving moral turpitude." --Charlie's lawyer says this is all a smokescreen to cover up the fact that he's being fired because he insulted Chuck Lorre . . . quote, "We feel this is nothing more than Lorre flexing his muscles, and we intend to respond accordingly." --He adds that Warner Brothers is being HYPOCRITICAL . . . because they didn't react this strongly when Charlie assaulted his wife, BROOKE MUELLER, over Christmas of 2009. --He said, quote, "Last year, they told Sheen he could plead guilty to a felony and still do the show. Now they are just upset because they say he disparaged Chuck Lorre. --"We intend to file suit against Warner Brothers Television, Chuck Lorre and everyone involved."
More of Charlie Sheen's Response to His Firing:
CHARLIE SHEEN had more to say about his firing as the day wore on yesterday. He told "Access Hollywood" that he was informed via TEXT. --He said, quote, "These guys are such yellow cockroaches that they didn't even have the decency to call me. I put 5-bill in their cheap suit pockets and another half-a-bil' in what's-his-cheese's pockets and this is the (effing) respect I get? --"It's just deplorable and they should be ashamed of themselves!" He added that what Warner Brothers did was, quote, "the work of silly infants." --Charlie was also spotted at the top of the Live Nation building in Beverly Hills, wielding a huge machete. (--You can see video of that here.) --As you may know, Live Nation is a major concert promoter. There's word going around that Charlie is thinking about doing a LIVE TOUR . . . kind of like what CONAN O'BRIEN did when he left NBC. (--Although obviously without anywhere near the talent.)--Meanwhile, Dallas Mavericks owner MARK CUBAN admits he might be putting Charlie on his HDNet channel. --He says, quote, "It could be a talk show or a reality show. We're trying to decide. Right now, we're taping a lot of different things that he's doing and we'll try to figure it out. It's still not 100% certain."
A New Poll Shows That Charlie Sheen is NOT Winning With the American Public:
A new poll shows that CHARLIE SHEEN is NOT winning with the American public. --In fact, only 16% of those polled have a favorable opinion of Charlie . . . while 71% have an UNFAVORABLE opinion of him. And 42% of them say their opinion is VERY unfavorable. --Meanwhile, 63% of those polled claim they're not even paying attention to the headlines or any of Charlie's crazy talk. 35% admit they're keeping up with it. --As for those who are paying attention, only 18% side with Charlie in his battle with the producers of "Two and a Half Men". And 57% side with the producers. 20% say they support NEITHER. (--I guess that leaves 5% as undecided.) (--At least Charlie is doing better than LINDSAY LOHAN. She got an unfavorable rating from 81% . . . while only 8% said they had a favorable impression of her.) -Despite the public's supposed indifference, Charlie has racked up 2 million Twitter followers and counting, less than one week after launching his account. --He Tweeted, quote, "Another record shattered. We gobbled the soft target that was 2.0 mil, like a bag of a troll-house zombie chow."
Those Warlocks In Salem Performed a "Magical Intervention" for Charlie Sheen:
Those warlocks in Salem performed their "magical intervention" for CHARLIE SHEEN . . . and they invited a Boston TV station to film it. --Head warlock Christian Day had said he wanted to use magic to make Charlie Sheen stop dissing REAL warlocks by using the term to describe himself. Don't worry . . . he said NO HARM would come to Charlie. --After the ceremony, he said, quote, "Charlie Sheen is no warlock . . . for a warlock is a wise person who understands the ways of the spirit world . . . so no truly wise person would betray their own soul the way he has done." (--Check out this insanity here.)
No Court for Charlie Sheen and Brooke Mueller . . . Yet:
CHARLIE SHEEN and BROOKE MUELLER have put off a custody hearing for the time being . . . because their lawyers are still trying to work out a deal that'll keep them from having to settle things in court. --Sources say there's been progress, but they haven't reached an agreement yet.

Video of Lindsay Lohan's Alleged Necklace Theft Is on the Internet:
And now we have video. --As expected, "Entertainment Tonight" has released surveillance footage of LINDSAY LOHAN'S alleged necklace theft. (--They posted this clip on their site last night.

(--And here's a clip of former O.J. SIMPSON prosecutor MARCIA CLARK "breaking down" the video.) --The jewelry store sold the surveillance video to the Associated Press for $35,000. The AP licensed it to "Entertainment Tonight". --Despite talk that the store SABOTAGED the case against Lindsay by selling the tape, the store doesn't believe it'll have any effect. --A spokesperson for the store explains, quote, "We were upset with the various mischaracterizations we were seeing and hearing about the video and its contents, and we felt the video should be allowed to speak for itself. --"[It] should have no impact on the outcome of the criminal proceeding. The video would be released during the actual trial anyway . . . release of the video at this time does not violate any law."

Diehard PHIL COLLINS fans: Step away from the edge. Phil isn't going anywhere. His rep says, quote, "Phil is not, [and] has no intention of, retiring." --Phil fans worldwide were feeling something ominous in the air the other night when some quotes he made to "FHM" magazine began making the rounds. He said, quote, "It's a good time to stop . . . --"I don't really belong to that world and I don't think anyone's going to miss me. I'm much happier just to write myself out of the script entirely."

(--Pompano Beach is a good choice. It's just a few miles north of your grandparents' retirement home in Fort Lauderdale. So in other words, The Monkees are kicking things off with a HOME GAME.) --The Monkees put some previous animosities behind them to do this tour. The last time they hit the road, which was 10 years ago, things didn't end well. --PETER TORK raised a stink about all the drinking DAVY JONES and MICKY DOLENZ were doing.

He wasn't involved with the 2001 tour either . . . and has only toured with The Monkees once over the past 20 years. He joined them for a U.K. tour in 1997.

NAZZY’S RANDOM STUFF
Subway Passed McDonald's and is Now the World's Biggest Chain:
The day JARED FOGLE was featured in the Indiana University student newspaper for losing weight just by eating Subway sandwiches . . . who would've guessed that he'd CHANGE THE WORLD? --After Subway signed Jared as a spokesman, business started growing. And growing. And growing. --And now, Subway has officially replaced McDonald's as the world's largest restaurant chain. --At the end of 2010, Subway had 33,749 restaurants worldwide. McDonald's had 32,737. Subway has 24,000 restaurants in the U.S., McDonald's has less than 15,000. --So McDonald's has about a thousand fewer stores, but they're in more countries, 117 to 95. --And McDonald's makes SIGNIFICANTLY more money than Subway. Last year Subway had $15.2 BILLION in revenue, McDonald's had $24 BILLION. (Wall Street Journal)
To the Surprise of No One, Hawaii is Named the Happiest of the 50 States:
Gallup just released the results of a year-long poll where they figured out the HAPPINESS levels of people in all 50 states. And the state that ranked the happiest is . . . exactly the state you'd expect to rank the happiest. --Hawaii finished first on the list. --Each state was ranked on six different factors: How people there evaluate their lives . . . emotional health . . . job satisfaction . . . physical health . . . healthy behavior . . . and basic access to health care, exercise, and activities. --Hawaii ranked first out of 50 in three of those six different categories: Life evaluation, emotional health, and physical health. --The western part of the country fared very well . . . the top 10 on the list are Hawaii, Wyoming, North Dakota, Alaska, Colorado, Minnesota, South Dakota, Utah, Connecticut, and a tie between Nebraska and Massachusetts. --The south dominated the bottom 10 list. West Virginia was the least happy state, followed by Kentucky, Mississippi, Arkansas, Alabama, Ohio, Delaware, Nevada, Louisiana, and Michigan.

A 69-Year-Old Chinese-American Jew In Hawaii Is Surprised To Learn He's Been Named the Happiest Person In America:
69-year-old Alvin Wong of Honolulu, Hawaii got a call a few days ago. It was from the "New York Times". They wanted to tell Alvin some good news . . . based on a gigantic, nationwide study, he's statistically the HAPPIEST person in America. --His response was, quote, "This is a practical joke, right?" --But it wasn't. Gallup just finished a year-long study on the well-being of Americans, and in the process they found the characteristics that make up the happiest person in America. And Alvin Wong might just be the only person with ALL of them. --Based on how different groups rated their well-being, the happiest person in the U.S. is male . . . tall . . . Asian-American . . . an observant Jew . . . living in Hawaii . . . married with kids . . . over 65 . . . a business owner . . . and making over $120,000. --Alvin is all of those. He's 5-foot-10, 69 years old, Chinese-American, married with children, living in Honolulu, owns a health care management business, makes over $120,000 a year . . . and yes, he's Jewish and keeps kosher. --There aren't very many Chinese Jews . . . and come to think of it, there aren't many Asian-Americans OR Jews who break the 5-foot-10 mark . . . so Alvin really is one-of-a-kind. --The "Times" got Alvin's name from a synagogue in Hawaii. After he finally believed they weren't effing with him, he told them he IS happy, quote, "my life philosophy is 'if you can't laugh at yourself, life is going to be pretty terrible for you." (New York Times) (--Here's a photo of Alvin with his wife, Trudy.)
A New Poll Shows That Americans Basically Love Every Single Government Service:
Maybe the government COULD get a little smaller and COULD abuse us with fewer taxes . . . if only we didn't love every single thing it does so damn much. --According to a new Harris poll, basically, Americans love every government program, don't know what we'd ever do without them, and wouldn't really cut any of them. --Every government program is supported by over HALF of all Americans, except for one program: Only 38% say they strongly support foreign aid. --Crime prevention and Medicare get 88% support . . . Social Security gets 85% . . . the National Parks get 82% . . . unemployment and environmental programs get 76% . . . Medicaid gets 74% . . . even immigration and naturalization get 56%. --And this wasn't just a poll of Democrats either. The poll was split evenly between different political parties. Of the Republicans surveyed, more than half strongly supported everything except immigration, food stamps, and foreign aid. --60% of Republicans even said they strongly support Medicaid, which is the government-paid health insurance for people with low income. --The people at Harris say these findings are pretty consistent with past polls, and are the eternal catch-22 for lawmakers: People want less government spending and lower taxes . . . but can't bring themselves to name anything that deserves to be cut. (PR Newswire)
We're Not Getting Enough Sleep . . . And It's Because of Our Late-Night Texting and Gaming:
We don't mean to pile on by talking about how TIRED you are at this hour of the day . . . but yeah, you're tired. I'm tired. We're all tired. --According to the National Sleep Foundation's annual survey, 43% of Americans say they rarely or NEVER get a good night's sleep. And 63% of Americans say their sleep needs aren't being met. --The majority of the blame is going to . . . TECHNOLOGY. 95% of people say they use some kind of electronic device within an hour of bed. That includes TV, computers, video games, and cell phones. --Charles Czeisler of Harvard Medical School says those types of technology don't just distract you and keep you awake longer . . . they can even mess up your body's natural sleep rhythms. --Quote, "Artificial light exposure between dusk and the time we go to bed suppresses release of the sleep-promoting hormone melatonin, making it more difficult to fall asleep." (Sleep Foundation)
A Woman In Romania Becomes the World's Youngest Grandmother . . . At Age 23:
Okay, this one comes from the not-always-reliable British tabloid "The Sun", so take it for what it's worth. --According to "The Sun", a woman in Romania just became the world's YOUNGEST GRANDMOTHER. And the woman is . . . 23 years old. --They say that when 23-year-old Rifca Stanescu of Investi, Romania was TWELVE she gave birth to her first child, a girl named Maria. --And now, at age 11, Maria has given birth to a son. --That also made Rifca's mother a great-grandmother at age 40. It seems that she was downright elderly when she gave birth to Rifca at 17. --In small Romanian villages, there aren't really any age limits on marriages . . . people regularly get married when they're in their early teens, or even younger. --The previous world's youngest grandmother was a 26-year-old woman in Yorkshire, England. (London Sun)

Last week, 25-year-old Leann Corley of Stone Mountain, Georgia was on a bus, traveling across the Canadian border into Buffalo, New York. She looked to be at least eight months pregnant. --Border patrol agents asked her some basic questions about her health and pregnancy, and what she was doing in Canada. And she couldn't really answer any of them. --The agents say it, quote, "just became apparent that something wasn't right" . . . so they searched her. --And the search quickly explained why she couldn't answer questions about her pregnancy. --Leann wasn't pregnant. She was wearing a FAKE BELLY. And inside she was smuggling 34,000 tabs of ecstasy. That's 21 POUNDS. --She's looking at federal drug smuggling charges. (Buffalo News)

He told the police that he's on disability, his wife just switched jobs, and he needed money to feed his three kids. None of the money or jewelry he's stolen has been recovered. --Beyond the burglary charges, he could also face reckless endangerment charges for bringing his daughter along. (NBC 7 - Boston)
A Wealthy Dentist Goes To His Son's Baseball Game . . . And While He's There, He Steals a College Kid's Credit Card and Uses It To Buy Pizza:
54-year-old Dr. Richard Ludwig of Okemos, Michigan must be addicted to stealing. He must be. Because kleptomania is really the ONLY explanation for him doing something this reckless, stupid, and self-destructive. --Over the weekend, Richard was in Winter Haven, Florida watching his son play in a baseball tournament. --On Saturday night, Richard was in the parking lot of a Publix grocery store and saw a credit card on the ground. --Now, Richard doesn't need to commit credit card fraud. He's a successful dentist, and according to what he told police later, he's worth around $4 MILLION. He also had $250 in cash on him at the time. --But for some reason he decided to use the card to buy two large pizzas . . . with extra olives . . . at an Italian restaurant next to the Publix. Total cost: $40.64. --By the time he'd ordered the pizzas, the owner of the card had realized it was missing and called the credit card company.

The police busted Richard while he was waiting for his order. He didn't offer up any reason for why he did what he did. --He was arrested and charged with credit card theft, forgery, impersonating, and attempting to use the ID of another person without consent.

NAZZY’S SILLY OF THE DAY
#1.) There's Amazing New Footage of 9/11 From an NYPD Helicopter:
Not long after the second tower was hit on September 11th, an NYPD helicopter flew over both towers and got footage of the smoke pouring out. Then after the first tower fell, they got footage from above the toxic dust filling the streets of Lower Manhattan. --The 17-minute video was obtained by the National Institute of Standards and Technology, to help with their ongoing investigation. But now the entire thing is on YouTube because someone leaked it. (--WARNING: This video includes the S-word and the word "crap".) (--Search for "WTC Attack From Helicopter."

In 2007, the clothing company Volcom said they'd pay $10,000 to the first surfer who could do a kickflip and get it on camera. Now, any decent skateboarder can do a kickflip, but apparently doing one on a surfboard is next to impossible. --But a surfer in California named ZOLTAN TORKOS has finally completed the challenge, and he posted the video of it on YouTube. He makes it look incredibly easy, but remember that it took almost four years for someone to pull it off. (--Search for "Zoltan Torkos First Kickflip." He does it at :10.)

Five Ways the Federal Budget Cuts Could Affect Your Health:
According to the Senior Public Health Correspondent for AOL News, the budget cuts being proposed by Republicans in the House AND the Obama administration both put America's health at risk. --Here's a list of five federally funded organizations that are likely to get cut, and what it might mean for your health.
#1.) The Consumer Product Safety Commission. This week, they're launching a long-awaited public database of products. For the first time you'll be able to easily find any safety hazards associated with things you buy and things you already own. --The database is supposedly huge, but the proposed budget cuts would slash their funding, and they wouldn't be able to keep the database current. --The budget cuts would also end a policy that requires manufacturers to have every product tested for safety by an outside company.
#2.) Poison Control Centers. The bill that recently passed the House would cut 93% of the funding, and close 57 centers around the country. Meanwhile, accidental poisoning is one of the top causes of unintentional death in the U.S.
#3.) The Environmental Protection Agency. The House bill aims to eliminate one third of the E.P.A.'s funding, and it would prevent the public from reviewing offshore drilling permits. --According to the head of a non-profit called the Environmental Working Group, the cuts would also jeopardize the quality of our air and water. And he predicted a spike in asthma cases around the country.
#4.) The Occupational Safety and Health Administration. They're the people in charge of making sure construction companies and factories don't do things that put their employee's lives at risk. --And the proposed 18% cuts in the House bill would result in about 8,000 fewer hazard inspections around the country each year.
#5.) The U.S.D.A. and the Food and Drug Administration. 500 million more pounds of beef and poultry are expected to be processed this year. --But in both Obama's budget AND the House budget, the U.S.D.A. isn't getting the money to hire more inspectors. --So that means the same number of workers will have to work longer hours to inspect more food. And it'll increase the chances of bad meat and poultry showing up in the grocery store. (AOLNews.com)
Charlie Sheen Has Been Fired By Warner Brothers . . . But He Still Thinks He's Winning:
It finally happened yesterday: Warner Brothers FIRED CHARLIE SHEEN . . . meaning that unless they have a change of heart, his time on "Two and a Half Men" is THROUGH. --Warner Brothers issued a statement saying, quote, "After careful consideration, Warner Brothers Television has terminated Charlie Sheen's services on 'Two and a Half Men' effective immediately." --They did NOT say anything about cancellation. Which means that we now have to spend an undetermined amount of time speculating over who might replace Charlie IF the show goes on. --In Charlie's world, he's still WINNING, of course. And he claims he's HAPPY he was fired. --He issued a statement saying, quote, "This is very good news. They continue to be in breach, like so many whales. --"It is a big day of gladness at the Sober Valley Lodge because now I can take all of the bazillions, never have to look at [what's his face] again and I never have to put on those silly shirts for as long as this warlock exists in the terrestrial dimension." (--Charlie didn't actually say "what's his FACE". He used a different word instead of "face". It's a euphemism for the male reproductive organ, and it rhymes with ROCK.) --Just in case Charlie had any questions about his termination, Warner Brothers sent his lawyer an 11-page letter spelling out why they canned him. (--You can see the whole thing here.) --Here are some of the highlights . . . --Warner Brothers gets right to the point, saying, quote, "At the outset, let us state the obvious: Your client has been engaged in dangerously self-destructive behavior and appears to be very ill." --The letter states that efforts were made to help Charlie by giving him time off, reaching out to his family . . . and even offering a private plane to take him to rehab after his most recent hospitalization, which he refused. --But the letter adds, quote, "Regrettably, Mr. Sheen failed to continue with his rehabilitation program. --"The result has been a series of well-chronicled and increasingly erratic outbursts that have culminated with Mr. Sheen's public tirades of the last few weeks." --Those tirades were marked by, quote, "inflammatory comments" that were "poisoning key working relationships." Obviously, they're mostly referring to Charlie's relationship with CHUCK LORRE. --Despite Charlie's claim that he always showed up on the set ready to work, Warner Brothers says he had, quote, "difficulty remembering his lines and hitting his marks." --They also noted that his lifestyle was causing a CHANGE IN HIS APPEARANCE. In other words, he's getting noticeably thinner. Like, crack-addict thinner. --And yes, there's a section in his contract on INCAPACITY. And it includes, quote, "Any material change in Performer's appearance or other attributes." --And they lumped all his recent behavior . . . including his public outbursts, hotel trashings and coke binges . . . under a heading of, quote, "felony offenses involving moral turpitude." --Charlie's lawyer says this is all a smokescreen to cover up the fact that he's being fired because he insulted Chuck Lorre . . . quote, "We feel this is nothing more than Lorre flexing his muscles, and we intend to respond accordingly." --He adds that Warner Brothers is being HYPOCRITICAL . . . because they didn't react this strongly when Charlie assaulted his wife, BROOKE MUELLER, over Christmas of 2009. --He said, quote, "Last year, they told Sheen he could plead guilty to a felony and still do the show. Now they are just upset because they say he disparaged Chuck Lorre. --"We intend to file suit against Warner Brothers Television, Chuck Lorre and everyone involved."
More of Charlie Sheen's Response to His Firing:
CHARLIE SHEEN had more to say about his firing as the day wore on yesterday. He told "Access Hollywood" that he was informed via TEXT. --He said, quote, "These guys are such yellow cockroaches that they didn't even have the decency to call me. I put 5-bill in their cheap suit pockets and another half-a-bil' in what's-his-cheese's pockets and this is the (effing) respect I get? --"It's just deplorable and they should be ashamed of themselves!" He added that what Warner Brothers did was, quote, "the work of silly infants." --Charlie was also spotted at the top of the Live Nation building in Beverly Hills, wielding a huge machete. (--You can see video of that here.) --As you may know, Live Nation is a major concert promoter. There's word going around that Charlie is thinking about doing a LIVE TOUR . . . kind of like what CONAN O'BRIEN did when he left NBC. (--Although obviously without anywhere near the talent.)--Meanwhile, Dallas Mavericks owner MARK CUBAN admits he might be putting Charlie on his HDNet channel. --He says, quote, "It could be a talk show or a reality show. We're trying to decide. Right now, we're taping a lot of different things that he's doing and we'll try to figure it out. It's still not 100% certain."
A New Poll Shows That Charlie Sheen is NOT Winning With the American Public:
A new poll shows that CHARLIE SHEEN is NOT winning with the American public. --In fact, only 16% of those polled have a favorable opinion of Charlie . . . while 71% have an UNFAVORABLE opinion of him. And 42% of them say their opinion is VERY unfavorable. --Meanwhile, 63% of those polled claim they're not even paying attention to the headlines or any of Charlie's crazy talk. 35% admit they're keeping up with it. --As for those who are paying attention, only 18% side with Charlie in his battle with the producers of "Two and a Half Men". And 57% side with the producers. 20% say they support NEITHER. (--I guess that leaves 5% as undecided.) (--At least Charlie is doing better than LINDSAY LOHAN. She got an unfavorable rating from 81% . . . while only 8% said they had a favorable impression of her.) -Despite the public's supposed indifference, Charlie has racked up 2 million Twitter followers and counting, less than one week after launching his account. --He Tweeted, quote, "Another record shattered. We gobbled the soft target that was 2.0 mil, like a bag of a troll-house zombie chow."
Those Warlocks In Salem Performed a "Magical Intervention" for Charlie Sheen:
Those warlocks in Salem performed their "magical intervention" for CHARLIE SHEEN . . . and they invited a Boston TV station to film it. --Head warlock Christian Day had said he wanted to use magic to make Charlie Sheen stop dissing REAL warlocks by using the term to describe himself. Don't worry . . . he said NO HARM would come to Charlie. --After the ceremony, he said, quote, "Charlie Sheen is no warlock . . . for a warlock is a wise person who understands the ways of the spirit world . . . so no truly wise person would betray their own soul the way he has done." (--Check out this insanity here.)
No Court for Charlie Sheen and Brooke Mueller . . . Yet:
CHARLIE SHEEN and BROOKE MUELLER have put off a custody hearing for the time being . . . because their lawyers are still trying to work out a deal that'll keep them from having to settle things in court. --Sources say there's been progress, but they haven't reached an agreement yet.

The AP licensed it to "Entertainment Tonight". --Despite talk that the store SABOTAGED the case against Lindsay by selling the tape, the store doesn't believe it'll have any effect. --A spokesperson for the store explains, quote, "We were upset with the various mischaracterizations we were seeing and hearing about the video and its contents, and we felt the video should be allowed to speak for itself. --"[It] should have no impact on the outcome of the criminal proceeding. The video would be released during the actual trial anyway . . . release of the video at this time does not violate any law."

• For the first time in any baseball game you will be able to play co-op online with up to four of your friends.
• There is also a Challenge of the Week online feature, which will support leaderboards and prizes awarded in three tiers.
Other upgrades this year include 3D functionality, stadium specific broadcast camera angles for all 30 MLB teams (which means you play the game exactly the way your TV broadcasts it) and PlayStation Move support for Home Run Derby Mode. (Trailer)

Diehard PHIL COLLINS fans: Step away from the edge. Phil isn't going anywhere.

NAZZY’S RANDOM STUFF
Subway Passed McDonald's and is Now the World's Biggest Chain:
The day JARED FOGLE was featured in the Indiana University student newspaper for losing weight just by eating Subway sandwiches . . . who would've guessed that he'd CHANGE THE WORLD? --After Subway signed Jared as a spokesman, business started growing. And growing. And growing. --And now, Subway has officially replaced McDonald's as the world's largest restaurant chain. --At the end of 2010, Subway had 33,749 restaurants worldwide. McDonald's had 32,737. Subway has 24,000 restaurants in the U.S., McDonald's has less than 15,000. --So McDonald's has about a thousand fewer stores, but they're in more countries, 117 to 95. --And McDonald's makes SIGNIFICANTLY more money than Subway. Last year Subway had $15.2 BILLION in revenue, McDonald's had $24 BILLION. (Wall Street Journal)
To the Surprise of No One, Hawaii is Named the Happiest of the 50 States:
Gallup just released the results of a year-long poll where they figured out the HAPPINESS levels of people in all 50 states. And the state that ranked the happiest is . . . exactly the state you'd expect to rank the happiest. --Hawaii finished first on the list. --Each state was ranked on six different factors: How people there evaluate their lives . . . emotional health . . . job satisfaction . . . physical health . . . healthy behavior . . . and basic access to health care, exercise, and activities. --Hawaii ranked first out of 50 in three of those six different categories: Life evaluation, emotional health, and physical health. --The western part of the country fared very well . . . the top 10 on the list are Hawaii, Wyoming, North Dakota, Alaska, Colorado, Minnesota, South Dakota, Utah, Connecticut, and a tie between Nebraska and Massachusetts. --The south dominated the bottom 10 list. West Virginia was the least happy state, followed by Kentucky, Mississippi, Arkansas, Alabama, Ohio, Delaware, Nevada, Louisiana, and Michigan.

A 69-Year-Old Chinese-American Jew In Hawaii Is Surprised To Learn He's Been Named the Happiest Person In America:
69-year-old Alvin Wong of Honolulu, Hawaii got a call a few days ago. It was from the "New York Times". They wanted to tell Alvin some good news . . . based on a gigantic, nationwide study, he's statistically the HAPPIEST person in America. --His response was, quote, "This is a practical joke, right?" --But it wasn't. Gallup just finished a year-long study on the well-being of Americans, and in the process they found the characteristics that make up the happiest person in America. And Alvin Wong might just be the only person with ALL of them. --Based on how different groups rated their well-being, the happiest person in the U.S. is male . . . tall . . . Asian-American . . . an observant Jew . . . living in Hawaii . . . married with kids . . . over 65 . . . a business owner . . . and making over $120,000. --Alvin is all of those. He's 5-foot-10, 69 years old, Chinese-American, married with children, living in Honolulu, owns a health care management business, makes over $120,000 a year . . . and yes, he's Jewish and keeps kosher. --There aren't very many Chinese Jews . . . and come to think of it, there aren't many Asian-Americans OR Jews who break the 5-foot-10 mark . . . so Alvin really is one-of-a-kind. --The "Times" got Alvin's name from a synagogue in Hawaii. After he finally believed they weren't effing with him, he told them he IS happy, quote, "my life philosophy is 'if you can't laugh at yourself, life is going to be pretty terrible for you." (New York Times) (--Here's a photo of Alvin with his wife, Trudy.)
A New Poll Shows That Americans Basically Love Every Single Government Service:
Maybe the government COULD get a little smaller and COULD abuse us with fewer taxes . . . if only we didn't love every single thing it does so damn much. --According to a new Harris poll, basically, Americans love every government program, don't know what we'd ever do without them, and wouldn't really cut any of them. --Every government program is supported by over HALF of all Americans, except for one program: Only 38% say they strongly support foreign aid. --Crime prevention and Medicare get 88% support . . . Social Security gets 85% . . . the National Parks get 82% . . . unemployment and environmental programs get 76% . . . Medicaid gets 74% . . . even immigration and naturalization get 56%. --And this wasn't just a poll of Democrats either. The poll was split evenly between different political parties. Of the Republicans surveyed, more than half strongly supported everything except immigration, food stamps, and foreign aid. --60% of Republicans even said they strongly support Medicaid, which is the government-paid health insurance for people with low income. --The people at Harris say these findings are pretty consistent with past polls, and are the eternal catch-22 for lawmakers: People want less government spending and lower taxes . . . but can't bring themselves to name anything that deserves to be cut.

We don't mean to pile on by talking about how TIRED you are at this hour of the day . . . but yeah, you're tired. I'm tired. We're all tired. --According to the National Sleep Foundation's annual survey, 43% of Americans say they rarely or NEVER get a good night's sleep. And 63% of Americans say their sleep needs aren't being met. --The majority of the blame is going to . . . TECHNOLOGY. 95% of people say they use some kind of electronic device within an hour of bed. That includes TV, computers, video games, and cell phones. --Charles Czeisler of Harvard Medical School says those types of technology don't just distract you and keep you awake longer . . . they can even mess up your body's natural sleep rhythms. --Quote, "Artificial light exposure between dusk and the time we go to bed suppresses release of the sleep-promoting hormone melatonin, making it more difficult to fall asleep."

A Woman In Romania Becomes the World's Youngest Grandmother . . . At Age 23:
Okay, this one comes from the not-always-reliable British tabloid "The Sun", so take it for what it's worth. --According to "The Sun", a woman in Romania just became the world's YOUNGEST GRANDMOTHER. And the woman is . . . 23 years old. --They say that when 23-year-old Rifca Stanescu of Investi, Romania was TWELVE she gave birth to her first child, a girl named Maria. --And now, at age 11, Maria has given birth to a son. --That also made Rifca's mother a great-grandmother at age 40. It seems that she was downright elderly when she gave birth to Rifca at 17. --In small Romanian villages, there aren't really any age limits on marriages . . . people regularly get married when they're in their early teens, or even younger. --The previous world's youngest grandmother was a 26-year-old woman in Yorkshire, England.

54-year-old Dr. Richard Ludwig of Okemos, Michigan must be addicted to stealing. He must be. Because kleptomania is really the ONLY explanation for him doing something this reckless, stupid, and self-destructive. --Over the weekend, Richard was in Winter Haven, Florida watching his son play in a baseball tournament. --On Saturday night, Richard was in the parking lot of a Publix grocery store and saw a credit card on the ground. --Now, Richard doesn't need to commit credit card fraud. He's a successful dentist, and according to what he told police later, he's worth around $4 MILLION.

Five Ways the Federal Budget Cuts Could Affect Your Health:
According to the Senior Public Health Correspondent for AOL News, the budget cuts being proposed by Republicans in the House AND the Obama administration both put America's health at risk. --Here's a list of five federally funded organizations that are likely to get cut, and what it might mean for your health.
#1.) The Consumer Product Safety Commission. This week, they're launching a long-awaited public database of products. For the first time you'll be able to easily find any safety hazards associated with things you buy and things you already own. --The database is supposedly huge, but the proposed budget cuts would slash their funding, and they wouldn't be able to keep the database current. --The budget cuts would also end a policy that requires manufacturers to have every product tested for safety by an outside company.
#2.) Poison Control Centers. The bill that recently passed the House would cut 93% of the funding, and close 57 centers around the country. Meanwhile, accidental poisoning is one of the top causes of unintentional death in the U.S.
#3.) The Environmental Protection Agency. The House bill aims to eliminate one third of the E.P.A.'s funding, and it would prevent the public from reviewing offshore drilling permits. --According to the head of a non-profit called the Environmental Working Group, the cuts would also jeopardize the quality of our air and water. And he predicted a spike in asthma cases around the country.
#4.) The Occupational Safety and Health Administration. They're the people in charge of making sure construction companies and factories don't do things that put their employee's lives at risk. --And the proposed 18% cuts in the House bill would result in about 8,000 fewer hazard inspections around the country each year.
#5.) The U.S.D.A. and the Food and Drug Administration. 500 million more pounds of beef and poultry are expected to be processed this year. --But in both Obama's budget AND the House budget, the U.S.D.A. isn't getting the money to hire more inspectors. --So that means the same number of workers will have to work longer hours to inspect more food. And it'll increase the chances of bad meat and poultry showing up in the grocery store. (AOLNews.com)
