The daughter and only child of former president Bill Clinton and his husband wife, Hilary, Chelsea Clinton tied the knot with her longtime beau, Marc Mezvinsky. Honestly, can you imagine one groomsman at the altar not saying, “Don’t do it, Marc!”?

Anyway, apparently Chelsea looked really pretty (at her standard anyway) her half-uncle Roger Clinton told Entertainment Tonight, “She was more beautiful than ever,” as the 30-year-old bride walked down the aisle in a Vera Wang gown with her daddy. Roger added, “It was a great night.”

It was a grand event that took place at the lavish, Astor family palace in Rhinebeck, N.Y. One guest said, “Marc gave an eloquent speech about his love for Chelsea,” adding, “At the end of his speech, he ignored the rest of the room and looked very intense. He looked right into Chelsea’s eyes. Oh, it was something. The whole room was quiet. You could feel the energy in the room. He impressed a lot of people.”

Another guest added, “Bill’s chin began quivering and he tried to fake a smile as a tear came down his cheek. He whispered something into Chelsea’s ear, and she wiped the tear off his face. It was so touching. There wasn’t a dry eye in the house.” Give me a break. There isn’t a genuine bone in his body, and it was probably the first and only honest moment in his life and that’s why he cried.

In another wedding highlight, the father of the bride gave a toast to his daughter, the newlywed. A guest said, “Bill’s toast was vintage Bill Clinton. He spoke elegantly about what it was like to welcome Marc into the family.” Another guest added, “It hit all the right marks. It was perfect.” Are you surprised? Clinton is a charismatic SOB, how do you think he became president and almost got away with an affair in the Oval Office? Anyway, as long as Chelsea doesn’t apply any of her parents’ advice to her own marriage she should be okay.

The father of Sarah Palin’s grandson, Levi Johnston, is hard at work making amends with baby mama, Bristol, as well as the entire Palin family. In an exclusive interview with PEOPLE, Levi says, “Last year, after Bristol and I broke up, I was unhappy and a little angry. Unfortunately, against my better judgment, I publicly said things about the Palins that were not completely true,” he continued, “I have already privately apologized to Todd and Sarah. Since my statements were public, I owe it to the Palins to publicly apologize.”

What? Is he running for governor? Levi could not have sounded more like a politician in that statement. In the past, the former Alaskan governor, Sarah Palin, and Levi were in a war of words, but now Johnston has admitted he has grown up and wants to make things right with his son’s grandparents.

Bristol Palin added, “Part of co-parenting is creating healthy and honest relationships between the parents. Tripp one day needs to know the truth and needs to know that even if a mistake is made the honorable thing to do is to own up to it.”

In Johnston’s public apology to the family, he says, “So to the Palin family in general and to Sarah Palin in particular, please accept my regrets and forgive my youthful indiscretion. I hope one day to restore your trust.”

Officially, there is an ongoing manhunt for 22-year-old Dutchman, Joran van der Sloot, who is sought for the murder of a 21-year-old girl in Peru. Van der Sloot was previously arrested twice for the disappearance of Natalee Holloway, who was in Aruba for a class trip. Today, authorities confirmed van der Sloot is now the prime suspect for Sunday’s murder of a Peruvian woman, Stephany Flores, who was found dead in a Lima hotel.

The following day, the suspect crossed the border by automobile into Chile. Joran was in Peru for a poker tournament, and he appears in a hotel surveillance tape with the victim. The video shows the two together at a Lima casino early Sunday and were later seen entering the hotel by an employee.

The father of the victim, Ricardo Flores, said his daughter was dropping off her girlfriends at 2:35 a.m. then returned to the casino to meet van der Sloot. According to police chief Gen. Cesar Guardia, van der Sloot and the victim were seen entering a hotel room at approximately 5 a.m. About four hours later, the Dutchman left the hotel room alone. Guardia confirms, “We have an interview with a worker at the hotel who says she saw this foreigner with the victim enter his room.”

The victim, Stephany Flores, was found face down on the floor of the hotel room with abrasions on her face and body indicating trauma, and she was fully clothed. Signs of asphyxiation are pending with autopsy results for the actual cause of death. Sunday’s murder of Flores exactly marks the five year anniversary of Natalee Holloway’s disappearance for which van der Sloot remains the leading suspect.

According to the Dutch government, Interpol has issued an international arrest warrant for van der Sloot in the Peru killing. The spokeswoman for the Aruba prosecutor’s office, Ann Angela, said, “What’s happening now is incredible. At this moment we don’t have anything to do with it, but we are following the case with great interest and if Peruvian authorities would need us, we are here.”

UPDATE!! Joran van der Sloot was arrested by police while taking a cab ride and taken into custody in downtown Santiago, Chile. The suspect has since been transferred to the Peruvian government.

UPDATE!! Monday, under questioning from Peruvian authorities, the Dutchman confessed to killing the 21-year-old, Stephany Flores, last Sunday on May 30. According to Peruvian media releases, van der Sloot became enraged after discovering Flores had used his laptop to search information of his past without his permission.

The sick bastard admitted to grabbing Flores by the neck and hitting her because she had viewed photos and videos about the Aruba case on his computer while he went to get coffee. Joran’s confession came on his thrid full day in Pervian custody, and the day before he was set to participate in reconstructing the events at the hotel leading to Flores’ slaying. Flores was beaten to death and had a broken neck.

In a statement from Natalee Holloway’s father, “He confessed to this one… I would like for him to tell everyone what happened. Hopefully this is his last victim.”

Say it isn’t so! Who would’ve thought after the Clinton/Gore era, Bill and Hilary Clinton would reconcile infidelity yet Al and Tipper Gore would split after 40 years of marriage. The Gores confirmed their split via and email to Politico.

The future ex-couple made a joint statement, “We are announcing today that after a great deal of thought and discussion, we have decided to separate.” After a 40 year union, wouldn’t you just go your separate ways and not even bother putting your energy into a divorce? Seriously, think of how long it would take to reach an agreement with 40 years of crap together. They’ll be dead before a settlement is made.

And where do you go after being with someone for 40 years? It is possible either Mr. or Mrs. has kindled another flame. Why else would you separate at their age after that long of a marriage? Any thoughts?

Seriously? What is wrong with our judicial system? It’s been eight years since Elizabeth Smart was kidnapped from her Salt Lake City bedroom at knifepoint, and the woman who pleaded guilty is finally being sentenced. Smart was only 14 when she was abducted, and held captive for nine months. She was found nine months later, walking down a street in the Salt Lake City suburb of Sandy, with another couple.

Wanda Eileen Barzee, 64, was sentenced on Friday to 15 years in federal prison. Yes…only 15 years! She pled guilty to federal charges of kidnapping and unlawful transportation of a minor, and she only gets 15 years! She took away the freedom of this young girl for 9 months…”I’m greatly humbled as I realize how much Elizabeth Smart has been victimized and the role I played in it,” she said. “I’m so sorry, Elizabeth, for all the pain and suffering I have caused you and your family. It is my hope that you will be able to find it in your heart to forgive me one day.”

Barzee’s husband Brian David Mitchell, is awaiting trial for the rape and kidnapping of Smart. As part of Barzee’s plea agreement, she agreed to testify in pending state and federal cases against her husband. Smart testified last October that Mitchell raped her almost daily during the nine months she was held captive. Smart was also forced into a polygamous marriage with the one-time traveling street preacher.

Smart’s mother delivered strong words to Barzee who stood just a few feet away from her in the court room, “Wanda Barzee, what you did to our family and to our girl Elizabeth was wrong. It was wrong and it was evil,” Lois Smart said in the courtroom. “Mothers don’t do that to mothers…Mothers don’t do that to children.”

Mitchell’s federal trial is set to start November 1.

Hundreds of Nashville’s top stars, musicians and tour support company owners are facing millions of dollars in lost equipment because of the historic floods. Brad Paisley is amongst those affected by the flood, and now his H2O Tour is drenched. Paisley is among roughly a thousand other musicians who house their gear at Soundcheck Nashville, a storgage rental facility by the flooded Cumberland River. The owner, Ben Jumper, stated the 160,000 square foot facility is all flooded and the losses are an estimated tens of millions.

The Brad Paisley H2O staging and props are all under water, as well as most of his guitars, amps and tour equipment are destroyed. At the moment, Paisley and his crew are scrambling to find replacements as well as rehearsal space as the tour starts in two weeks at Virginia Beach, VA. In a phone interview with the Associated Press, the country crooner joked, “I sent a Tweet the other day that basically told people that when they come to the show just know that what you’re seeing has been fully tested under water,” Paisley continued, ” This is the H2O Tour. This isn’t posers acting like we know about it. We’ve done it, buddy.”

In addition to Paisley, Keith Urban lost his gear, and it has been reported Vince Gill has lost an entire collection of guitars, including irreplaceable vintage pieces. LeAnn Rimes has lost a trailer full of her road gear, which is probably under about 3 to 8 feet of water. Rimes’ guitarist, Ryan Wariner is trying to remain optimistic, but they’re not finding a lot of reason for hope. “Everything that I use but two guitars is in there - pedals, amps, speakers, mics, front house consoles, everything was in there,” says Wariner.

It has been quite an upset for Music City. Soundcheck Nashville was among other important music landmarks, including the Grand Ole Opry House and the Country Music Hall of Fame also have flood damage.

MooTV owner, Scott Scovill, supplies massive video screens and other high-tech gear for concert tours, and he has taken the humanistic approach saying, “Compared to losing someone you care about or your home, all of this can be replaced.” Dozens of people have been killed and thousands of homes have been damaged in the floods.

Kenny Chesney is among the thousands whose homes have been damaged or even destroyed in the wake of the floods. The Nashville floodwaters have literally consumed the country star’s home. Chesney’s publicist explained his house will likely be condemned because the water has risen to the second floor. The gym in his home containing all of his sports memorabilia, including his own high school items in addition to professional sports and pictures with friendly athletes. Chesney was out of state working on another project when the flooding occurred. The cleanup process has begun and people are beginning to assess the damage done.

After a long appeal process, the British born, Linda Carty, will be executed after justices denied review of her 2001 murder abduction case. The appeal to the Supreme Court for a stay of execution was the last long shot for Carty after being sentenced to the death penalty for killing her neighbor.

Carty’s appeal was based on claims Texas officials had delayed informing British authorities of her prosecution, therefore devastating her defense in court. Carty’s attorneys were depending on the Vienna Convention and a U.S./British treaty which requires notification of arrests of nationals “without delay.” A British consul general in Houston, Paul Lynch, explained, “It made a material difference in this case. It is quite clear to us that Linda Carty did not get the assistance she should have and the trial she should have.”

Carty’s defense team affirmed the result of her trial would’ve been different if the defendant had been accorded the protections provided by the British government. Rule number one… don’t mess with Texas! The 51-year-old defendant was sentenced to the death penalty in 2002 for murdering a 25-year-old, Joana Rodriguez.

In the fall of 2009, the U.S. 5th Circuit Court of Appeals agreed there were problems with Carty’s trial, however, the lower court upheld the denial of a stay of execution. Prosecutors charged Linda Carty for the participation of kidnapping and killing Joana Rodriguez in an attempt to steal the victim’s baby. Rodriguez died and the baby was physically unharmed. Texas Assistant Attorney General Katherine D. Hayes admitted the evidence of Carty’s guilt was “overwhelming.”

Carty is the first British woman to be executed in 55 years. Sorry, but this is ridiculous, and that’s what she gets for poor decision-making. What a waste of American dollars, and she’s not even American. Her victim’s child is 8 or 9 year-old now and doesn’t have a mother.

As a habitual coffee drinker, I not only drink coffee because of the delicious comforting taste, but also because of the energizing zing it provides during a morning commute. Personally, the worst side effect of coffee dependency is the routine headache by noon the next day if I skipped a morning coffee. Yes, you could call it coffee withdrawal, because you could also call me a coffee addict.

In fact, I am not alone and about 54% of adults in the United States are also habitual coffee drinkers/coffee addicts consuming approximately 146 billion cups of coffee annually. That is about three times more than tea drinkers. However, through the years of research, coffee was deemed bad for you. Because of its habit forming traits, coffee was analogous with smoking, associated with insomnia, and renamed the “devil’s brew.”

Well, now times are a changing. New research demonstrates coffee is in fact good for you, as coffee consumers could be lower at risk of type 2 diabetes, Parkinson’s disease, as well as liver and colon cancer. For men, a 2009 study showed coffee drinking are lower at risk for lethal prostate cancer. Moderate coffee addicts consuming 3 to 5 cups a day are proven to have lower risk of dementia and Alzheimer’s disease later in life in comparison to less or more frequent coffee drinkers.

Women who regularly drink coffee were found to be less likely to die from various causes in relation to their counterparts. Also, the consumption of decaffeinated coffee drew similar results, therefore researchers do not believe caffeine is at work in the recent developments for coffee consumption. A University of Scranton professor of chemistry, Joe A. Vinson, Ph. D., found, “Most people drink it [coffee] for the caffeine. But it’s the Number 1 source of antioxidants in the U.S. diet.” Antioxidants are nutritious compounds found in berries, beans, and vegetables, but those foods are consumed much less than coffee. So have a cup o’ Joe, and have a good day (or life).

The South Hadley High School student, Phoebe Prince’s, story of being bullied to death is different to all the others. Why? Because for the first time, law officials are placing the blame and responsibility of a teen suicide on the victim’s bullies. Phoebe Prince was a beautiful teenager, who recently emigrated to Massachusetts with her family from County Clare, Ireland.

Almost from the moment Prince walked on her high school’s campus, she was ostracized for dating a popular boy, and was ultimately pushed beyond her brink of tolerance and hanged herself on an especially brutal day, January 14. Phoebe Prince was verbally attacked and hit with a bottle when she walked home from school, according to reports.
Although this is not the first teen suicide as a result of bullying, Phoebe’s malicious attackers are now facing the consequences. Yesterday, nine teenagers, 16 to 18 years old, were indicted and will face the charges of Prince’s “unrelenting” bullying. A clique of seven narcissistic girls have been charged with stalking, criminal harassment and violating Prince’s civil rights. In addition to the girls, two boys have been charged with statutory rape.

The District Attorney, Elizabeth Scheibel, revealed the teens’ charges yesterday, explaining the events leading to Phoebe Prince’s death as “the culmination of a nearly three-month campaign of verbally assaultive behavior and threats of physical harm.” Scheibel continued, “The invesigation revealed relentless activity directed toward Phoebe, designed to humiliate her and to make it impossible for her to remain at school. The bullying, for her, became intolerable.”

The unfortunate events at South Hadley High School and the loss of a beautiful teenage girl has initiated a historical milestone for the anti-cyberbullying activists. Michael Lieberman, counsel to the Anti-Defamation League in Washington stated, “There has been an explosion of cyberbullying and students can blithely and anonymously destroy the lives of innocent scapegoats. Principals, teachers, have been stymied. Something has to be done about it.”

Phoebe Prince’s tragic end to her life marks the first of all the consequences to come for bullies, to make them accountable and take the responsibility for the death of their victims. After charges have been filed, the faculty and staff at South Hadley High School are sitting in a hot seat facing difficult questions. Barbara Coloroso stated she discussed the situation with parents and administrators prior to Prince’s suicide. Coloroso asks, “Did they follow their own rules and did they keep Phoebe safe? Obviously not. And, did they deal effectively with the bullies? Obviously not.”

The school officials have yet to comment on the charges or answer any questions at this time. District Attorney Scheibel refused to further discuss the conditions of the rape charges, and Phoebe Prince’s family has moved since the tragedy took place and have yet to be located for comment.

What is reality television coming to?

Former Alaska governor Sarah Palin, has signed on with the Discovery Channel to host a reality show about the Last Frontier. Palin is an American politician, author, speaker, and political commentator, and now she can add reality television star to her list.

According to The Washington Post, the series in which Sarah Palin will be hosting has been picked up for a reported whopping one million dollars plus per episode. If that’s the truth, then this will be the most expensive made reality documentary to date.

The travel series, which will be produced by Mark Burnett, will feature Alaska’s ex-governor giving tours and participating in different activities such as fishing, to gold mining. The former Vice President will focus on the traditions, people, and the natural wonders of her home state. According to Variety, “Sarah Palin’s Alaska will center on interesting characters, traditions and attractions in the 49th state — with the ex-VP candidate as a guide.”

So what do you think, you excited to see what this new reality series is all about? Let’s just hope it doesn’t turn into another self-proclaimed reality series similar to Jon and Kate Plus 8.
