| Beyoncé has been pictured in New Orleans, for the first time since her lip-synching controversy. The singer shared the image of herself at Mother´s restaurant on her Instagram page, as reports emerged that she decided to mime at President Obama´s inauguration because she was saving her voice for her upcoming Super Bowl performance in the city. According to Marine Corps Band director Colonel Michael Colburn, Beyoncé was in the process of preparing for her Super Bowl performance when it came to rehearsing for the inauguration.

Someone representing the military band said they also scynched the music. Later it was told that the person who reported this was not authorized to make that statement. Not that it wasn´t true, just that they were not authorized.
Michelle said earlier she is a roll model for her girls. Sorry but I couldn´t disagree more to have her as a roll model.

Seems to me that the organizers of these kinds of things could save a lot of money. Just get a body-double or, cardboard cut-out of the ´singer/performer´ and play a recording of the song.
As a matter of fact, Zippy could even be replace in the same way - everything he says comes from the teleprompter anyhow and I think you could capture that imperious sneer on camera, then blow it up to life size.

There have been many (conflicting) reports on what happened. The most plausible was that she was recorded individually and the Marine Band played live. What makes me think this is the true story? We noticed that she was off-key and out of synch with the band during the first part of the National Anthem. Later on the whole thing came together better and she was more on key.
Surely someone who was there would know if the band was actually playing.
She should save her lip-synching for something other than our National Anthem. Cheesy to the max.

Too bad they can´t cancel her Super Bowl contract. Maybe Zippy didn´t pay her enough to sing live for the event.
Maybe they will turn their backs when she sings at the Super Bowl in protest.

[Editor´s note: This article contains highly disturbing, graphic images. Please proceed with caution.] Who is Dr. Kermit Gosnell? Dr. Kermit Gosnell, age 72, ran an abortion clinic for over 20 years in Philadelphia, now dubbed as the ‘House of Horrors.’ Gosnell allegedly performed illegal, late-term abortions (past the 24-week limit permitted by law), cutting the spinal cords of countless aborted babies. Gosnell also employed unqualified staff, including teenagers and two other “doctors” who were merely medical school graduates without a license. Gosnell allegedly made millions of dollars over his 30-year career and lucrative cash-only abortion practice, as well as

The First Family’s 2012 tax returns are out today and they show that the Obamas paid an effective federal tax rate of 18.4 percent, almost half of the top tax rate last year. Neil Cavuto reacted on Your World this afternoon as the news broke, pointing out that President Obama slammed Mitt Romney for paying an effective tax rate of 14 percent on his income during the presidential campaign. “Remember what a big deal ‘fatcat Mitt’ supposedly dodging the tax man was then, and ask yourself why the president paying not much more isn’t remotely a big deal now,”

Republican leaders unanimously approved a resolution Friday urging the U.S. Supreme Court to uphold Proposition 8, the measure under court review that forbids same-sex marriage in California. The Republican National Committee “affirms its support for marriage as the union of one man and one woman, and as the optimum environment in which to raise healthy children for the future of America and … implores the U.S. Supreme Court to uphold the sanctity of marriage in its rulings on California’s Proposition 8 and the Federal Defense of Marriage Act,” according to a resolution approved at the group´s meeting in Hollywood.

But eight former employees of a run-down West Philadelphia abortion clinic now face prison time for the work they did for Dr. Kermit Gosnell. Three have pleaded guilty to third-degree murder. And Gosnell, 72, is on trial in the deaths of a patient and seven babies allegedly born alive. In testimony at the capital murder trial this past month, an unlicensed doctor and untrained aides described long, chaotic days at the clinic.

President Obama and first lady Michelle Obama reported income of $608,611 in 2012 and paid $112,214 in total taxes, the White House announced Friday. Tax documents released by the White House show the first family donated $150,034 to 33 different charities, representing nearly a quarter of their gross income. In addition to his federal salary, Obama made $258,772 from book royalties. The president´s effective federal income tax rate was 18.4 percent. That represents a decline in both income and effective tax rate for the first family from 2011, when the president saw an income of $789,674 and paid

LOS ANGELES — Jonathan Winters, the cherub-faced comedian whose breakneck improvisations and misfit characters inspired the likes of Robin Williams and Jim Carrey, has died. He was 87. The Ohio native died Thursday evening at his Montecito, Calif., home of natural causes, said Joe Petro III, a longtime family friend. Petro said Winters died of natural causes and was surrounded by family and friends. Winters was a pioneer of improvisational standup comedy, with an exceptional gift for mimicry, a grab bag of eccentric personalities and a bottomless reservoir of creative energy.

WYMT-TV reports the move came after the schools received a complaint from the Freedom From Religion Foundation. The group´s letter says the displays have been up for years. Kentucky Board of Education officials released a statement saying that the display of religious materials in public schools violates the U.S. Constitution.

WASHINGTON- Retail sales contracted in March for the second time in three months, a sign the American economy may have stumbled at the end of the first quarter. Retail sales fell 0.4 percent during the month, the Commerce Department said on Friday. That was below analysts´ expectations that sales would be flat. Readings for retail sales have been volatile so far this year, making it difficult to know whether the weakness in March was due to a tax hike that went into effect at the start of the year or to temporary factors related to the weather.

But Hvistendahl soon learned the downside to uncovering what many believe to be a shocking trend in human rights offenses: people will want to do something about it.

Only one of my six children has left New York for economic reasons but the strain of living in this expensive nanny state is weighing heavy on my other five and their families. As a native New Yorker, I´ve seen its middle class population decline over the years due to its neglect of blue collar families which is ironic since this is a Democrat city. With the recent arrests of several local politicians for corruption perhaps New Yorkers will pay more attention to those they put in office. Given their past indifference in local elections this is highly unlikely.

I’ve been writing about media coverage of abortion for many years. And so have many others. If you haven’t read David Shaw’s “Abortion Bias Seeps Into The News,” published in the Los Angeles Times back in 1990, you should. That report also explains why we cover the topic here at GetReligion.But the thing is that I’m getting kind of sick of pointing out egregious bias only to see things not just remain bad but get worse. Just think, in the last year, we saw the media drop any pretense of objectivity and bully the Susan G. Komen Foundation
