11.11.10 Thursday!


Today is beyond important.  It's Veterans Day.  A day to say thank you to those that have served, and remember those that made the ultimate sacrifice.  




The Veterans Day National Ceremony is held each year on November 11th at Arlington National Cemetery .

If you're a veteran, what is the nicest compliment you can receive?

On the other hand, what would you rather not hear?

5 Unexpectedly Unhealthy Kids' Foods

5. Packaged Lunches
Kids like having the option to build their own lunches; parents like the simplicity these lunches provide on busy mornings. However, these packaged meals are full of processed food items usually high in fat and sodium.

4. Apple Sauce
Most applesauce today is sweetened with added sugars and may even be tinted with artificial colorings. 

3. Whole Milk
Toddlers need the extra fat in whole milk from 12 months to two years for development; but, after that, the additional fat isn’t necessary and can add extra calories to kids’ diets.

2. Baked Potato Chips and Pretzels
There’s nothing good or bad with baked chips and pretzels – and that’s exactly the problem

1 The PB & J
Commercial peanut butters are full of artery-clogging hydrogenated oils and added sugars. And spreading on grape jelly adds an extra helping of simple sugars

"Design Star" judge Vern Yip and his partner are expecting baby #2, according to People.com.  Yip and his partner are using a surrogate and already know the sex of the baby -- but won't share it with the rest of us.  

The woman that slept with a very married John Edwards, and then later had his baby, denies she flew off to Los Angeles to "hook up" with Matt LeBlanc and John Cusack.  Rielle Hunter's spokesperson says the National Enquirer story is untrue and "Rielle has not been to Los Angeles in two years."  Of course, the National Enquirer was the publication that broke the story of a Hunter/Edwards affair.... just sayin'.  

Also setting the record straight is Demi Lovato's spokesperson who says Demi is "not in treatment for drug or alcohol addiction" but for "emotional and physical issues she has battle throughout her life."  

Mel Gibson and Oksana Grigorieva met in court yesterday to argue child support issues, and Mel was ordered to pay $60-grand in back pay.  Mel held out on the $20-grand in monthly payments because he wanted to deduct the $6-thousand a month he's forking over for the house Grigorieva and her mother are currently sharing.  The judge said nope -- you gotta pay for both.  

Spotted -- Billy Ray Cyrus showed his face for the first time at the CMA Awards since filing for divorce from his wife Tish on Oct. 26th.  Rumor is she was having an affair with Brett Michaels.  Brett denies the charge.    

Those that grew up watching the Sally Jessy Raphael talk show and always wanted to know why she wore those hideous red glasses -- she explained the reason to Oprah yesterday... "It's all they had for $19.95."  Oprah chatted with her former rivals Phil Donahue, Ricki Lake, Geraldo Rivera and Montel Williams on her show yesterday.

-Seth Rogan on his newly trim physique

Joke of the Day

An older couple was lying in bed one night. The husband was falling a sleep, but the wife felt romantic and wanted to talk.

She said, "You used to hold my hand when we were courting."

Wearily he reached across, held her hand for a second, and tried to get back to sleep. A few moments later she said, "Then you used to kiss me."

Mildly irritated, he reached across, gave her a peck on the cheek and settled down to sleep.

Thirty seconds later she said. "Then you use to bite my neck.

"Angrily, he threw back the bed clothes and got out of bed.

"Where are you going?" she asked.

"To get my teeth!"
