| In Downton Abbey she has won over a new legion of fans as the pushy matriarch Martha Levinson, but another side of Shirley MacLaine has emerged in a new book. Her daughter Sachi Parker says that during a bizarre episode in the 1970s, Shirley was all for her losing her virginity. In a shocking memoir released this weekend in America, Lucky Me: My Life With–And Without–My Mom, Sachi says that the 78-year-old actress took little interest in her life until she was 17. Then, she and her boyfriend, Brad, were invited to the star’s California beachfront flat

I can´t remember who wrote this one review of Andrew Breitbart´s Hollywood, Interrupted, but the writer referred to the denizen´s of Hollywood´s royalty as coked up sociopaths. It struck me as one of the best descriptions of Hollywood movie stars. I just laugh when they lecture the rest of us about the way we should think or live. Shirley Maclaine should have been committed.

I remember decades ago when Shirley said she left her daughter to be raised by her dad since she (Shirley) knew he´d be the better parent. Shirley is a wonderful actress, I love her movies, but as a person she lacked even the most basic instinct a woman has.
As for weird parents and their child losing their virginity, my ex-husband´s niece got married at 16 and her parents went with her and her husband on their honeymoon. They actually took a picture of her the morning after, sitting on the bed. That´s just unbelievably icky.

Washington — After a full year of fruitless job hunting, Natasha Baebler just gave up. She´d already abandoned hope of getting work in her field, counseling the disabled. But she couldn´t land anything else, either — not even a job interview at a telephone call center. Until she feels confident enough to send out resumes again, she´ll get by on food stamps and disability checks from Social Security and live with her parents in St. Louis.

Stockholm — Ikea says it has withdrawn 17,000 portions of moose lasagna from its home furnishings stores in Europe after traces of pork were found in a batch tested in Belgium. Ikea spokeswoman Tina Kardum said the product had only been on sale for a month when it was pulled off the shelves on March 22. The company didn´t announce the withdrawal publicly until Swedish newspaper Svenska Dagbladet wrote about it Saturday. Kardum said the company found out Friday that a follow-up test in Belgium confirmed the lasagna contained 1.6 percent pork. "We have more information now. That´s why we choose

Raritan Borough — A lesbian police officer said the town’s mayor and other officials discriminated against her after she became pregnant, according to a report on MyCentralJersey.com. Kathleen Sausa, 42, told borough officials in early 2011 that she was pregnant with twins, according to the lawsuit she filed Monday in Superior Court. Sausa accuses officials of targeting her after she announced her pregnancy. She claims they refused to grant her family leave or other accomodations during her pregnancy – and also singled her out for a physical “fit for duty” examination, resulting in a suspension, according to the report on the lawsuit.

Some clients know how to take advantage of the system to double dip in multiple entitlement programs. On paper, Raven Yates is a young, single mother of two who´s out of a job. But when we did a little digging, the reality proved much different. Documents we obtained show in August of 2012, Yates applied and was approved for Section 8 housing for herself and her two kids.

Washington — Alabama hospitals are losing out on more than $10 million a year because of a change in Medicare funding policy that mostly benefits one state at the expense of others. Known as the “Bay State boondoggle” by its critics on Capitol Hill, the provision in the 2010 health care law has pumped an extra $367 million annually into the 82 hospitals in Massachusetts — and reduced payments to hospitals nearly everywhere else.

President Obama´s biggest gaffe yesterday when speaking of California Attorney General Kamala Harris was not in flirtatiously complimenting her as "the best-looking attorney general," but in introducing an observation from the system of beauty into a forum that was about the system of power.What´s that, you say? Irin Carmon does a great job in Salon in laying out the bounds of propriety for when it´s appropriate to talk about a woman´s looks as a general matter.

The budget President Barack Obama will submit on April 10 will contain a proposal that would prohibit individuals from accumulating more than $3 million in Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs) and tax-preferred retirement accounts. According to a White House statement, the Obama administration believes the current rules allow some wealthy individuals "to accumulate many millions of dollars in these accounts, substantially more than is needed to fund reasonable levels of retirement saving." "The budget would limit an individual’s total balance across tax-preferred accounts to an amount sufficient to finance an annuity of not more than $205,000 per
