Has it been posted that Angelina has found a baby in the Czech Republic to adopt and that Brad flew out to meet the child?

Maris, you don't have to be sorry. It sure gets the wheels of wonder turning though, doesn't it?

Bon Jovi guitarist Richie Sambora entered an undisclosed treatment facility on Wednesday, a rep for the band tells PEOPLE exclusively. "Richie Sambora has entered an undisclosed treatment facility in Los Angeles," the rep said in a statement. "He asks that you respect he and his family's privacy at this time." The specific nature of Sambora's problem was not disclosed. I did read somewhere that they had a few problems with him when they were filming their MTV Unplugged special.

I'm glad he's getting the help he needs. More people should leave to "step up" before it becomes an issue.

Back and forth: Hearing could send Paris back to jail. Hours after Paris Hilton was sent home under house arrest Thursday, the judge who put her in jail for violating her reckless-driving probation ordered her into court to determine whether she should be put back behind bars.

Wargod, this news, to my everlasting shame, set my heart to soaring like a hawk. I generally avoid all things schadenfreud because I don't enjoy kicking people while they are down or otherwise revelling in their misery . . . but . . . Ba hah hah hah hah hah hah. Just when they thought they'd bought off the sheriff . . .

I have done some research and will post more tomorrow...but what it boils down to is that you or I would not have received forty five days for this...but much less if any jail time

Mamie I am SURE Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes will visit her in jail, provide the (homemade) cupcakes and lecture her on how the thetans within her caused this and Xenu is her cure.

just adding a bit of "trivia" to the paris potluck: for those who have seen photos of Steve Whitmore, spokesman for L.A. County Sheriff Lee Baca,(the man who gave the press conference this morning), or watched it on tv: he is the son of actor James Whitmore. http://tinyurl.com/35qd5u

Scooter, that's what I was thinking too. When I heard the 45 days, and even cut down to 23, me and Darren looked at each other in shock. We've known several people, sadly, who have done the same thing as Paris and been sentenced jail time...30 days max, and just like the friend I posted about this morning, in one day and out the next. That friend didn't even get a suspended license...she did her two days and has to do alcohol classes. Someone else we know after his first dui got probation and suspended license, was pulled over a couple months later drunk again. No jail time at all for him, he got more time on his probation and something like 50 hours community service. Frankly I think it's disgusting that the legal system here is so lenient on dui's. I was happy Paris got 45 days, not because I can't stand her or want her in jail, but because it was a stiffer sentence than I've heard about (unless it was the 5th or 6th time!) even if I am willing to admit it did seem like a much harsher sentence than normal...lol, doesn't that sentence make sense. I just mean that 45 days, 1/2 time off for good behavior and telling her she'd do all those 23 days, without being able to do any type of house arrest or paying for a better jail is not something most normal people would get the first few times they get busted, they'd get less. The over crowding with a misdemenor charge pretty much garuntees a weekend away from home and that's about it! ETA: I'd rather see everybody sentenced more harshly for dui's or treat her the same as everyone else would be treated.

I think part of Paris' problem is that she did a three strike thing: 1. Pulled over DUI 2. Pulled over with suspended license; signed doc acknowledging can't drive 3. Pulled over AGAIN with suspended license I think, by the third time, it was just a wee bit much. So she didn't violate her probation once, but twice. And I'm pretty sure DUI's aren't misdemeanors any more are they? California has gotten pretty strict, but the sentencing is up to the judge's discretion up to a point. ETA: OK, so it's not yet a felony by default yet, in California. Other enhancements such as property or personal injury will change the mis to a fel.

BTW, I just did a bit of poking around, and Paris' sentence is by no means excessive. For a first offense, the following may be instituted: 1. Probation: yes 2. Jail: 48 hrs to 6 months 3. Fine: Multiple including $390-1,000 for offense, $663-1,700 for penalty assessment, and $100-1,000 for restitution. 4. License: restricted (90 days) or suspended (6 months). Looks to me like she got a middle of the road sentencing. About house arrest, I found this: quote:Until recently, a sentencing court could, with the defendant's consent, order home detention. Currently, however, the court is limited to restricting or denying participation in the program; approval of participation in the program in lieu of jail rests with the sheriff or other county correctional administrator. In practice, however, and by statutory mandate, a sentencing judge's recommendation is usually given considerable deference. (e) The court may recommend or refer a person to the correctional administrator for consideration for placement in the home detention program. The recommendation or referral of the court shall be given great weight in the determination of acceptance or denial.

Washington Fired From Grey's Anatomy Washington Fired from "Grey's Anatomy" Posted Jun 7th 2007 10:55PM by TMZ Staff Filed under: TV, Celebrity Feuds TMZ has confirmed that Isaiah Washington has been fired from the ABC hit "Grey's Anatomy." Washington's rep, Howard Bragman, confirmed this evening to TMZ that "Grey's" creator Shonda Rhimes called Isaiah today and told him he would not be invited back to the show next season. TV Guide's Michael Ausiello, who first broke the story, reports that the decision was due only in part to Washington's on-set troubles, and was a result of a "pattern of problematic behavior." As for how he feels about his termination, Washington issued the following statement: "I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore." Paging a mediator, STAT!

another thing to think about with the Paris sentencing is that she is high profile, every move she makes is thrown in our faces, so I think she should be held accountable. How does it look to her peers if they just keep letting her drive? Then they could all get away with it. House arrest with a stiff fine would be fine by me but if she broke that probation into the slammer she should go.
