No shocker that no one went home on Dancing with the Stars tonight since Misty May-Treanor was forced to leave due to an injury. What was a shocker is that they actually announced who would have been cut had Misty stayed on the show. Personally I thought that was messed up and cruel. At least when Sara Evans dropped out they kept it a secret who would’ve been eliminated and that is what they should have done tonight.
When it comes to Misty May-Treanor her surgery was successful today and she is home resting. Hopefully she will get better soon!
Now here is something I forgot to post a while ago and will get you through those DWTSless days…go to the Ballroom Dance Channel and learn to do the dances that they do on DWTS. This site was created by Dancing with the Stars Tony Dovolani and he shows you some his best dance moves!!! I know I have been a lot of fun doing it!
Final note…Go Clorky!!! Keep voting for Cloris Leachman and Corky Ballas, they are the best thing to happen to DWTS since Jerry Springer!!!

While the fires on Wall Street continue to smolder and ghouls still prowl the darkened streets of downtown, searching for delicious human meat, a show called Wall Street Warriors still soldiers on. Yeah, it's on something called Mojo which is like Hi-Def television or something. Anyway, it follows real-life young idealistic finance types as they wheel and/or deal. And it's sort of sad given today's ruination. Above is an ominous clip from the most recent episode, the season finale. The two young men you hear are idealistic stockbrokers, the "punch in the gut" they refer to has to do with SanDisk stock dropping a bit. But, grimly, they remain hopeful. Little did they (or any of us?) know what awaited them just a few short months later. It's like that old Faces song. You know the one:

The economy's in trouble. Have you heard? Banks would be much happier if you hadn't, but alas, that dude who was repossessing your car probably said something about it. So now our financial institutions are faced with their toughest challenge: deciding what kind of ads to run. They can't do anything about the actual economy—your money is toast. But maybe they can make you feel better about it! Does JPMorgan Chase see a smile on your face? Yes, JPMorgan Chase does!
There are a few different strategies. Some, like failed failure WaMu, use humor, along the lines of "We've dragged our dessicated carcass to a safe place now. LOL!"
Others are going for the old "reassure you despite all evidence to the contrary" tactic:
In advertising, many financial institutions are racing to reassure consumers with soothing messages — that focus on important “S” words: strength, safety, stability, security.
“There is a safe and smart place to put your money,” ads for Commerce Bank tell newspaper readers.
Simultaneously, some institutions are continuing to communicate as if the recent upheavals had not happened. Ads for Discover Financial Services, for instance, try to coax consumers to sign up for yet another credit card, offering enticements like free balance transfers.
Ha, well I guess that's appropriate. The truth is advertising is just a buffet of bad options right now for banks. They can laugh it off and look stupid. They can try to reassure you and look like liars. Or they can try the "straight talk" approach and scare you even worse than you already are.
Or they can do what the FDIC did and hire scary blond Suze Orman. Which is the worst option of all. [NYT]

David Beckham and Posh Spice found the secret to perfect skin and according to Daily Mail it is bird poo.
Victoria Beckham, 34, has been regularly indulging in £100 Geisha Facials, using a paste made from nightingale droppings, to combat acne she has suffered since her teens.
A pal told Closer magazine: 'When Victoria was in Japan recently she was admiring the local women’s clear skin and discovered it was down to these facials.
'She was intrigued and when she got back to the US she found that some New York beauty salons now offer the treatment.
'She tried it and loved how great her skin looked. She also uses a cream derived from nightingale poo at home.'
Ewww. Gross. Ewww. I am shuddering at the thought of putting bird sh!t on my face for any reason. Ewww. Gross. Ewww.

It seems the “Dancing With The Stars” curse is in full swing this year. The last few seasons contestants experienced quite a few calamities on and off the dance floor and this year so far seems to be about injuries.
It started with Jeffrey Ross getting poked in the eye before week 1, and now Just days after an injury bounced Misty May-Treanor out of the competition, dancer Derek Hough blacked out after taking a nasty tumble and hitting his head. A DWTS spokeperson said:
“At Saturday’s rehearsal, Derek was walking backwards and tripped over something on the floor. He was knocked out for a brief moment and was taken to the hospital as a precaution to make sure he was OK,” a rep for the dancer said in a statement released Access. “After test results showed that he was fine, Derek was released and was sent home to rest. He will be ready to go for tonight’s show.”
Derek’s partner Brooke Burke recounted his injury on her blog.
“Saturday, on the CBS stage, we were practicing as usual when Derek accidentally tripped over a box, while walking backwards,” she continued. “As he tried to break his fall, by jumping up, his foot caught a stage light which sent him further into the air. He landed on his back on the wooden dance floor and smashed the back of his head. He was disoriented, blacked out for a few seconds, and was flattened out in pain. He couldn’t move, I sat beside him as he laid there and we waited for help to arrive.”
Brooke said Derek’s injury was quite a fright after last season, when he pulled a muscle in his neck keeping him off the dance floor for a week.
“Our producers called 911 and the paramedics arrived to carefully examine him. He suffered a neck injury last season which had him down for a week, so the reoccurrence was definitely scary. They rushed him off, stretcher and all, in the ambulance for further testing in the ER.”
According to Brooke, Derek received good news at the hospital:
“After a cat scan and many other tests, he received a clean bill of health and we were back at it today as scheduled. With a huge headache, and a little dizziness, the show goes on.”
Burke also confirmed that her current partner Derek Hough and his ex partner Shannon Elizabeth “are still together.
“They’re living together,” Burke said. “She comes to rehearsals and they’re going strong.”
Brooke also talked about Misty May-Treanor saying that the Olympic volleyball star gold medal winner’s future is unknown.
“We’re all pulling for her, we don’t know what’s going to happen yet. I think they’re going to do a package about it on the show. She’s waiting to get some doctor’s results. She may be having surgery this week. It’s sad. It could have happened to any one of us,” Brooke told Billy. “For Misty it’s especially difficult because of her career and it can end just like that on the show. We’re pushing our bodies to the limit. Injuries are bound to happen. And we’re really rooting for her.
Asked if anyone would be eliminated this week in light of May-Treanor’s absence, Burke said, “We don’t know. They still have to have the same amount of shows.
Showing a wicked sense of humor she continued:
“I heard [Edyta Sliwinska] and [Maksim Chmerkovskiy] may dance together since both of their partners are gone, but I don’t know what’s going to happen.”
This seasons show doesn’t seem to be building to a great finish so far. The celebrities as a group are a pretty mediocre group so far dance wise, compared to recent seasons but hopefully Lance, Brooke, Maurice and a few of the others can pick up the pace.

Well yes, sure, of course we can. But how? It's easiest to just blame greedy bankers or something, because Wall Street assholes act the same way in good times and in bad, and we lionize them in good and castigate them in bad (also we deregulate them in good and bail them out in bad, but whatevs). But now we have our media-blaming excuse: Howard Kurtz, media "critic" for the Washington Post, has weighed in on the financial crisis and is appointing blame in equal measure to everyone! That is the fair way to do things, you know. So hey let's join him in blaming the MSM.
The fact of the matter is regular work-a-day journalists, even the high-falutin well-off name ones, don't get finance. Because no one really gets finance besides financiers, and journos are all soft-sciences arts majors. Math is hard! Even now they don't "get" it (though everyone's on the tail end of their "conversant at cocktail parties" crash course, and it shows). Honestly, we spent a couple years studying for BFA, of course we have no fucking clue what happened here.
And as both media producers and media consumers, we're reasonably more conversant on many national public interest issues than Joe Sixpack Americans. And yes, in 2004 when the SEC decided to allow investment banks to self-regulate themselves we heard about it on Kos or something and were outraged and all that. But:
Yet major newspapers did not report on the voluntary program's adoption in 2004, which the Times now trumpets as a turning point. (The Journal ran an eight-paragraph piece on Page C4.)
And honestly there were so many other things to be outraged about in 2004!
The fact that serious business and finance journalism is written in opaque for-experts-by-experts style certainly helped the crisis along. The fact that the first real attempt at populist entertaining business journalism was the fact-free Bud Lite-sponsored happy hour that is Fox Business is obviously indicative of the larger problem here, which is that no one understood that the nation's economy was built on a house of cards except for the people who didn't care, the people who constructed the house of cards, and Ron Paul.
So we understand the crisis through an unhelpful lens of politics—we can explain the political machinations behind the bailout bill, yes, but is it good or bad policy? Paul Krugman says it's bad-but-necessary, or something. What a cop-out!
The People are actually to blame, yes; the stupid people who didn't pay attention to the terms of their loans and lived outside their means and gambled everything away while gorging themselves on bacon-wrapped shrimp at Red Lobster. Except who were the ones pushing the "ownership society," giving huge incentives for homeownership to people who shouldn't own homes, never providing anything but misleading information, convincing themselves that housing prices would never ever ever fall? Both political parties, two presidents, and all the respectable press. There was a dereliction of duty by everyone in the nation responsible for serving the public trust, which certainly used to mean journalists too.
It took Time until March of this year to explain credit default swaps, but at least they did explain it in March. And now we're probably in for another corrective period, in which like after the Lewinsky free-for-all and the credulous lead-up to the Iraq war, the press will spend a self-flagellating year promising to do better in the future. When honestly all they need to do is edit the business section so we can understand it and move that shit to the front page every now and then.

"Stop sending e-mail you later regret," the 
God knows why Robert Pickel, head of the association of derivatives traders, would want to go on 60 Minutes yesterday to explain credit default swaps. These complex financial instruments—at the center of the credit crisis—are now about as impossible to defend on television as child pornography. Watch this clip from the CBS news show for Pickle's eyebrow-raise when words fail him. It's an enjoyable moment of television but it's time for a defense of Wall Street against their critics in Congress and the media.
