Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said, "Today we saw the difference between a sail of peace activists, with whom we don't agree but honor their right to express a different opinion, and a hate sail organized by terrorism-supporting violent extremists," referring to the Gaza-Flotilla incident. Greta Berlin, a spokeswoman for the Free Gaza Movement, told the Times, "Israel needs to understand that we are not going to stop until they stop the blockade."

Hopefully. While you're at the beach today, 798,000 gallons of crude are being ejected from the Earth, polluting the oceans, and killing the pelicans. The good news is that the caps placed on the well last week are still successfully collecting some of that oil. The bad news is just about everything else: • Yay: about 250,000 gallons of oil have been funneled by now. That's still less than a third of the oil gushing into the ocean daily, but it's a start. [CNN] • Engineers are working to close the vents on the installed capping device, but basically they've failed so many times by now that they're scared: "They fear water will rush in and form the kind of icy hydrates that doomed a previous attempt to cap the leak." And if that possibility doesn't occur, they're also concerned "that the pressure inside the cap would become so great that the oil would blast through the imperfect seal." [NYT] • Obama's famously smooth rhetoric is getting sterner: "I don't want them nickel-and-diming people down here," he said in a briefing about the crisis, promising to "look over BP's shoulders" to make sure the company pays up. "I don't want somebody else bearing the costs of those risks that they took," Obama said. "I want to make sure that they're paying for it." [AP] • Despite Obama's comments, "thousands of people put out of work in the Gulf because of the oil spill" say the checks from BP aren't coming. Now the state of Louisiana has demanded that BP make its claims database public so we can all see exactly what's taking so long. [CNN Money] • The families of the eleven workers tragically killed when the rig initially exploded have been extended an invitation to visit the White House. [AP] • In this weekend's Times magazine, Matt Bai wonders if "too many many dangers at once ... seem to be gushing beyond [Obama's] reach." He adds: "On a deeper level, though, we may be reacting to our own lack of control as workers, providers and parents." [NYT] • Pelicans — quickly becoming the faces of this disaster — are in "dire trouble" as a result of it. Birds arriving at the International Bird Rescue Research Center were "so thoroughly coated that they could not stand up," and it's feared that, in the wild, many will die. And just last year they were taken off the endangered species list. [NYT] • An optimistic angle: CNN notes that in 1991, when Iraqi troops "set fire to desert oil wells and opened the valves on rigs and pipelines," the oil spill into the Persian Gulf was "at least five times the most recent estimate of that spilled in the Gulf of Mexico" and "against all the odds, the Persian Gulf appears to have shown amazing resilience."

Source: Entertainment - Google News | 5 Jun 2010 | 11:20 am Physicians Are Also Offended by Sex and the City 2 Don't ask these women for health advice. The Sex and the City sequel has already been critiqued for its insensitivity toward Islam, but now breast-cancer survivors and doctors are speaking out about Samantha Jones's unhealthy drug intake. Fans of the HBO series remember Kim Cattrall's character's moving battle with breast cancer in the sixth season, but the Sex and the City 2 filmmakers seem to have forgotten all about that, since half of Samantha's plot in the latest film revolves around her heavy consumption of medicine — specifically hormones — to defy her natural age, even though doctors caution against such measures in breast-cancer survivors.
Elizabeth Cohen, CNN's senior medical correspondent, also notes, "Doctors generally don't recommend hormone therapy for breast cancer survivors, since some studies show it increases the chances of having a recurrence." But hopefully nobody was turning to Sex and the City 2 for medical advice in the first place. 'Sex and the City' hazardous to women's health?'

Source: E! Online (US) - Top Stories | 5 Jun 2010 | 11:05 am Even in ‘Ribald Comedy,’ Elisabeth Moss Basically Seems Like Peggy Olson Isn't she lovely? Sometimes you get so into a television show that it can be difficult to accept its stars in other roles. You might not understand that, say, Ed Westwick isn't a possibly deceased playboy and hotelier, or that Jason Alexander isn't George Costanza but rather a KFC spokesman. On Mad Men, Elisabeth Moss's Peggy Olson is all quiet dignity and chilling workaholism, and it sounds like the actress's role in this weekend's Get Him to the Greek, a "ribald comedy" starring Russell Brand as a British rocker, isn't a far cry from Peggy Olson. A.O. Scott describes Moss's character in the film, Daphne, as "a busy medical resident who does not have much time for her man," much like diligent, independent Peggy. The director, Nicholas Stoller, even treats women a bit like Sterling-Cooper does:
Still, Scott notes that the film "confines Ms. Moss, so soulful and complicated in 'Mad Man,' [OMG, sic!] to the duties of being the foil of a foil." Also, Moss's onscreen flame is Jonah Hill, who, let's face it, is no Pete Campbell.

Source: Daily Intel | 5 Jun 2010 | 9:27 am New Search for Body of Drew Peterson’s Fourth Wife Reportedly Under Way Just the other day, Intel Chris noted the depressing resurgence of suspected murderers Joran van der Sloot and John Mark Karr — and now Drew Peterson, another suspected murderer who has long held a public fascination, seems to be back in our lives as well. Currently in jail and and awaiting trial for the murder of his third wife, Kathleen Savio, Peterson allegedly told an inmate yesterday how he killed his fourth wife, Stacy Peterson (not to be confused with Laci Peterson, the woman tragically murdered by her husband Scott Peterson in 2002), with the help of an accomplice. According to TMZ, the inmate then led authorities to Peterson's alleged accomplice who told the sheriff's department exactly where Peterson's body is buried, at a private hunting ground just outside Peoria, Illinois, and the state police will begin digging today. The suspected murderer has often been noted for his loud mouth and media mongering. [TMZ, CBS News] Read more posts by Mike Vilensky Filed Under: drew peterson, suspected murderers
Source: Daily Intel | 5 Jun 2010 | 8:28 am Justin Bieber Played a Secret Show in Queens Last Night [Updated] Disclaimer: Bieber not actually drinking. If you thought teenage singing sensation Justin Bieber was the type of pop star who only cares about performing in sold-out stadiums alongside Taylor Swift, then you were very wrong: Judging by his small, top-secret show in Queens last night, he's also after indie cred. Yes, Bieber surprised only a few hundred screaming fans last night by holding an impromptu, outdoor show in the hip outer borough. The 16-year-old later tweeted, "had a blast at the secret show in Queens ... need to rest my voice and get some sleep." He added, "gnite girlz ;) sweet dreams ... " with a link to his own song, "One Less Lonely Girl" — that little cad! And now a few hundred fans can one day say that they saw Bieber back when he was playing small shows in Queens, adding, "I really only liked his early work."
