When traveling in the corporate jet, the CEO of Abercrombie & Fitch makes it clear that he has stringent requirements for his luxury travel. Those needs span 47 pages in a remarkable “Aircraft Standards” manual that covers everything from the underwear male cabin staffers must wear (boxer briefs) to the seating plan for the dogs of A&F chief Michael Jeffries, 68, and his boyfriend Matthew Smith, 49.

Kathy Griffin is not exactly what you'd call a natural woman. By the comedian's own admission, she's had cosmetic surgery. And her on-camera appearances, whether working the red carpet or done up for the recent Creative Arts Emmys, are full-on glamorous. So it was quite a contrast to see the 51-year-old going on a hike makeup free with her red hair pulled back in a messy topknot. The celebrity looked relaxed as she held hands with her boyfriend, 33-year-old Randy Bick. Griffin wore a Jimmy Kimmel T-shirt, shorts, and sneakers, and smiled as she walked with her fit-looking beau in...

“We shape our buildings; thereafter they shape us.” —Winston Churchill Art is powerful. Through art nations have been swayed toward greatness … and toward Obama. Via the arts souls have been lifted and wars have been waged. There’s no mistaking the mighty leverage art wields on people and lands. For instance, on a personal level, my buddy Hambone Tweedle lives in a house that his wife has decorated with Hello Kitty swag, ubiquitous doilies and posters of fat baby angels who look like they’re stoned out of their gourd on Robitussin. His flat looks like Jan Crouch, Ross Matthews and...

I'm always at work when the first showing of Glenn Beck airs. Lately I've been staying up and watching the 1am repeat. Today he talked about how financial terrorists could have caused the collapse of 08. He's also talking about middle eastern countries falling. He showed a map and asked the question.. if all the countries fall around Iraq.. how will our troops even get out of that country??? He then urged everyone to stock up on food.. and said while America waits for Charlie Sheens next tweet.. Americas enemies are planning our downfall..

Posted: 21-02-2006 , 15:42 GMT The Iranian delegation which arrived in Moscow to discuss Iran's nuclear program has reportedly left without having achieving many concrete results. However, the two sides did agree on the principles of a "common formula" for the Russian plan to allow Iran to enrich uranium on its soil. The proposal, set forth by Moscow, would ensure greater oversight of Iran's controversial nuclear program in an effort to ease international tension surrounding it. "The negotiations were positive and constructive -- we talked about the principles of a common formula and reached an agreement on those principles," head...

Hormonal changes may actually alter the chemical balance in the brain and trigger some of the mood swings associated with a woman's monthly menstrual cycle, according to a new study. The study suggests that cells in a brain region called the hippocampus generate different types of receptors for the brain chemical GABA during various phases of the menstrual cycle. These changes may affect a woman's susceptibility to anxiety, depression, and seizures. Both estrogen and progesterone have effects on nerve cell activation, but the mechanism behind changes in seizure activity and increased anxiety are unknown, write the researchers. They say their...

                        What Did Jesus Do? Two things surprise me about the Democratic Left's public response to their bitter election disappointment — and the shattering of their illusions. The first is how little they know about Christians and Christian faith; the second is the ugly stereotypes that govern their descriptions of Christians.At the same time, two things please me. First, they are repeating the same mistakes they made before the election, virtually guaranteeing themselves still more shattered illusions; second, they are verifying that voters were not mistaken about the Left's distorted moral vision, a vision they...
