Jason Sudeikis Comments On January Jones’s ...


Jason Sudeikis has shown up in entertainment headlines lately,bothbecause of his recently announced gig as MTV Movie Awards host and because his former girlfriend, January Jones, recently announced her pregnancy.

January Jones and Jason Sudeikis have been stepping out together for weeks and attended the Emmys together, but she claims he still hasn't gotten her clothes off.

"He's never seen me naked, nor will he after those comments," January told People at the Emmys.

She was referring to comments Jason made last week on 'Lopez Tonight' (scroll down to watch).

Jason confirmed they were dating, and when asked whether he had seen her "naked and everything," Jason first said, "I don't want to get into it." Then: "I'm kidding. I do want to get into it! I do, and I have!"

January and Jason were snapped together at a pre-Emmys party on Saturday. Here they are at the Emmys on Sunday, where they sat next to each other in the front row.

Sudeikis, who came to the White House Correspondents’ Dinner tonight to support friend, “SNL” colleague and dinner emcee Seth Meyers, took a couple of moments to speak about both subjects.

When I asked if he had any comment on the recent news about Jones, who split with Sudeikis back in January, he said, “I’d rather — yes but no.”

Tiger Woods: Why He Doesn't Play, Or Care What ...

Tiger Woods suffered an injury three weeks ago at Augusta on the 17th hole in the third round. According to sources it's a level one, mild sprain on the same left knee that has nagged him throughout his illustrious career.

Surprisingly Tiger's usual theatrics of showing that he's in pain weren't on display as he was fist-pumping birdie putts on the first nine at Augusta the following day.

This is the same guy that beat Rocco Mediate on one leg (essentially) in a 19 hole playoff on a torn ACL and stress fractures to win his 14th major at Torrey Pines in 2008.

That's all a distant memory now as the infamous "level one mild sprain" will keep him out of action at Quail Hollow at the Wells Fargo Championship next weekend.

Or is it the unprecedented 79 Tiger posted there last season in the second round to miss the cut that has him not returning to Charlotte this year?

 I hope Tiger gets backs to his winning ways as well. I hope the swing change does work. Golf is better for everyone when Tiger is competing and winning.

A swing change in golf may be the most difficult things to do in all of sports. I agree that the new swing may be better and help him stay healthy. I was just pointing out that the change and subsequent work he's doing with Sean Foley is another contributing factor as to why he isn't playing as frequently.

But you're correct, all the Isleworth thxgiving nonsense and infidelity is in the past, people just want to see great golf, which usually includes Tiger playing at a high level.

Kate Middleton's Wedding Dress: Design Reminiscent of Grace Kelly's

East Falls' Grace Kelly was married to Prince Ranier III of Monaco fifty-five years ago.

Today, the fashion columns are buzzing with images from Kelly's nuptials to the Prince.  You see, Kelly's elegant dress must have been pinned up on Kate Middleton's dress designer's inspiration board.

At last, the moment the world has been waiting for: Kate Middleton revealed her wedding dress, a long-sleeved lace and ivory satin design by Sarah Burton, the creative director for the late Alexander McQueen.

Looking both modern and traditional, Middleton recalled another commoner who became royalty, actress Grace Kelly, who married Rainier III, the Prince of Monaco, and became The Princess of Monaco.

Designer Mark Badgley, who watched the wedding from his Long Island home with partner James Mischka called the dress a "classic Grace Kelly gown that appeals to modern brides."

Their decolletee was gently highlighted with a v-shaped neckline and full-length lace sleeves.

Kelly's confection was designed by famed Hollywood cosume designer Helen Rose.  Kate's creation was designed by Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen.

Princess Kate donned a Cartier tiara - her something "borrowed" - from the Queen, naturally.

What do you think?  Whatever your thoughts may be, these dresses are elegant, demure and totally beautiful. Timeless.

Famous clients include Sarah Jessica Parker, Cate Blanchett, Kate Moss and Michelle Obama, who wore the so-called "Poppy" dress for a state dinner.

Small and medium-size businesses in the U.S. lost more than $11 million over the past year in online scams in which stolen banking credentials were used in fraudulent wire transfers to companies in China, the FBI said.

There were 20 such incidents between March 2010 and April 2011, affecting companies and public institutions in the U.S. that tend to have accounts at local community banks and credit unions, some of which use third-party service providers for online banking services, according to the agency.

Sarah Palin sued by Alaska activist over traffic


Sarah Palin is being sued for more than $100,000 by an longtime Alaska political activist who said the hockey mom tried to railroad him while she was governor.

Theodore "Chip" Thoma of Juneau alleges Palin launched a campaign "to punish, embarrass, discredit and silence" him after he raised serious concerns about traffic in the neighborhood surrounding the governor's mansion.

An activist is suing Sarah Palin for at least $100,000, saying she undertook a campaign to "punish, embarrass, discredit and silence" him while she was Alaska's governor.

The lawsuit was filed in state court by Chip Thoma and first reported by TMZ.com.

Palin's attorney hadn't seen the lawsuit and didn't immediately comment.

It dates to 2009, after Palin returned to Juneau from her failed vice presidential bid.

Thoma's attorney, James McGowan, says Thoma complained about tour bus traffic on the narrow, windy streets around the governor's mansion. McGowan says Palin twisted Thoma's actions to make it seem like he had engaged in "some unsavory and lunatic" campaign against the Palins.

The complaint is based in part on a leaked draft manuscript of an aide of Palin's at that time.

Sarah Palin took pleasure at Katie Couric's departure from the "CBS Evening News." Couric, of course, conducted the infamous 2008 interviews with Palin which caused.
