Gibson said she has no remorse for the June 19 assault but pleaded no contest Friday to assault charges. She could have received as much as eight months in jail, but the judge sentenced her to three.
"No, I'd do it again if not better," she told Seattle affiliate KOMO-TV. "I don't care if it hurts me, I don't regret it. It got him away from my kids and all the other kids in the neighborhood."According to police documents, Level-3 sex offender William A. Baldwin had moved into his uncle's home in Tacoma in early June. Following his move, county deputies distributed flyers around the neighborhood to alert residents of his presence.
Mother Who Beat Sex Offender: 'I'd Do It Again'
Kansas May End Death Penalty to Save Money
By JAN CRAWFORD GREENBURG
Feb. 28, 2009
It was a gruesome crime: A 19-year-old college student, abducted, then raped and tortured, before her killer strangled her and dumped her body in a field. It took a Kansas jury earlier this month only four hours to decide Jodi Sanderholm's attacker, Justin Thurber, deserved the ultimate penalty of death.
For Sanderholm's family, the death sentence was deserved."This is a great deterrent to anyone who thinks about doing a crime like this," her father, Brian, said after the sentencing.But in the future, killers like Thurber could get a reprieve because of the nation's economic crisis. Kansas lawmakers now are weighing whether it's just too expensive to put people to death.
The average death penalty case costs the state of Kansas $1.26 million, compared to $740,000 for life in prison.The Kansas judiciary committee this week spent two days debating whether the state should abolish the death penalty to save money--and instead send people like Thurber to prison for life.

Are They Really Dead: All My Children's Greenlee, Guiding Light's Coop
By Lynda Hirsch
Feb 28, 2009
Last week on "All My Children," Greenlee (Rebecca Budig) died. Or did she? It was the famous "she's dead, but we have no body" soap opera ploy. I like Greenlee. I think Budig is a great actress. However, I want the character dead. I am tired of mourning characters that pop back like the Energizer Bunny. AMC, often my favorite soap (OK, I admit it), has you mourn and then pulls the mourning rug out from under you by bringing the character back from the dead.
Dixie dies not once but twice and returned; although, we think her last death, caused by poisoned pancakes, may really have her dead. Tad died; he's back and we're glad because the character and actor, Michael E. Knight, are favorites of mine and the fans. Paul Rauch, presently executive producing "Young and Restless," once said, "When an actor leaves or a character is painted into a corner, I like to put that character into the bank. That means the character can return. No body, no death. So when I want to bring the character back I go to the soap opera bank and withdraw the frozen assets." Yes, it's a good idea sometimes but not every time. The only way you can be certain a character is dead is if it's a minor character. When it's a major one there's always that possibility that they really haven't breathed their last breath.

By Lynda Hirsch
Feb 28, 2009
Q: I just started watching "One Life to Live." I love the character who just became a Buddhist. Please tell me all about him. -- Jennifer, Staten Island, N.Y. Answer: David Vickers (Tuc Watkins) came to town in 1994. In his off-again, on-again stints with OLTL he has shown a flair for comedy and drama. The actor recently told me he never asks what the writers have in store for his character. "I know it's always going to be good. My character has never had a boring moment." Cast mates say the same is true of Watkins. He is known as a jokester on the set, but is always serious when it comes to getting his work done.
Before he turned to Buddhism, Vickers was quite a criminal character. According to Soap Central, he helped Todd let everyone think Blair's son was dead; kidnapped Kelly Cramer; forged Irene Manning's diary; pretended to be Victor Lord's long lost son; held Dorian Lord hostage in an attempt to get the Bahdra diamond; and blackmailed Clint Buchanan for $10 million in exchange for donating his kidney to Jessica.
When David came to town, Dorian was in jail for killing her husband, Victor, 20 years before. David gave Dorian a forged diary by Victor's mistress, Irene Manning, which claimed she killed Victor. She also said she had had a second child with Victor, a son, and Dorian convinced David to pretend to be the long lost heir in order to validate the diary. David presented the diary and Dorian was freed, but then David met his supposed "sister," Tina Lord Roberts, and they fell in love. Tina even named her dog "doggie David Vickers."

Octomom Nadya Suleman Scores Angelina Jolie Designer for Free Clothes
By Angela Carson
Feb 28, 2009
When Nadya Suleman first burst on to the scene, many noticed that Octomom had a striking resemblance to one Angelina Jolie, baby mama to Brad Pitt and nemesis to Brad's ex Jennifer Aniston. Some accused Octomom Nadya Suleman of using plastic surgery to enhance her look, so she would resemble while others claimed she was totally following Jolie's lead by collecting babies in record numbers.
Jolie was said to be a bit put off by the comparison (and who can blame her?) and as Octomom had her decisions unveiled with interviews on the NBC Today show and other media outlets show a pattern of strange choices, public opinion quickly turned against the unemployed mother of fourteen.

The Twilight cast is posing for teen Vogue. Pics and video from the Teen Vogue photo shoot featuring three of the 'four Cullen men' are online and the magazine reports that headline star Robert Pattinson along with Kristen and the rest of the Twilight stars talk about the making of the film, plus give away some movie details. Blog for Your Life is still certain of something between two of the stars but it is not the usual set up.
The item muses, "I totally agree with my partner in crime, Kendra. There is a huge vibe between Nikki and Kristin. I have a really sensitive sappho-meter, and it can pick up the slightest of lesbian vibes. Can we also talk about Robert? Patsy looks a lot like John Lennon. Like creepy similar."

Rihanna Out of Punta Mita, Mexico and Into Chris Brown's Arms: Back Together?
By Jessica Warren
Feb 28, 2009
Rihanna is out of Punta Mita, Mexico and into the arms of Chris Brown, TMZ.Com is reporting. Where are they? According to people they are shacking up at Sean Combs house. What? An earlier report from Life & Style Weekly gave a hint this could happen. The magazine notes that understandably, Rihanna is getting a lot of pressure to cut Chris Brown out of her life, and even those in Chris’ camp are suggesting the two distance themselves from each other right now.
"Everyone around them, especially their families, just wants them to stay as far apart as possible until this whole thing gets figured out,” says a Chris family insider. “It’s just all so complicated right now.”

Lisa Rinna Playboy Photos Get Personal Approval From Hubby Harry Hamlin
By Marilyn Beck and Stacy Jenel Smith
Feb 26, 2009
Lisa Rinna, host for the TV Guide Channel, has made news as of late for posing for Playboy at the age of 45 in their May issue, and her hubby Harry Hamlin tells us he stands by his woman in her decision. "I've seen the photographs, and they're beautiful," Harry wants us to know. He reminds, "This is not the first time she has posed for Playboy. The first time she posed when she was seven months pregnant with our first daughter. Lisa was so proud of her body when she was pregnant and the womanhood of that. She really wanted to go there and share that with people," Hamlin recalls.
"They came back to her 10 years later, saying, 'You're 45, and you've had two kids, but your body is still in amazing shape. What do you think about doing it again?' and she agreed. For me, it's six of one, half a dozen of the other. For her, it's very meaningful, so I'm there to support her in anything she wants to do. She does work hard to look the way she looks, so that makes me a lucky guy."

By Mary Browning

Britney Spears and her father, Jamie Spears can rest easy tonight after a Los Angeles court hearing today decided to extend the temporary restraining order against former manager Sam Lutfi until March 18. Today’s hearing revealed disturbing details from Britney’s hairstylist and bodyguard. As reported by OK! magazine, the hairdresser, Roberta Romero, who has been styling Brit’s hair for over a year began receiving text messages from Sam Lutfi in early December.
According to Romero’s testimony Lutfi had sent several texts asking her to give Britney a message that he was "trying to help her," but she refused, telling him that she believed him to be a bad influence on Brit.

Angelina Jolie & Sean Penn Get a Pass, Hilary Swank, Not So Much
By Marilyn Beck and Stacy Jenel Smith
Feb 26, 2009
When Hilary Swank failed to thank then-husband Chad Lowe in her Oscar acceptance speech, the omission caused a media uproar. But when Sean Penn thanks his "circle of longtime support" including best friend Sato Masuzawa (his assistant), but fails to thank wife Robin Wright Penn -- or, for that matter, mention Harvey Milk – in his "Milk" Best Actor acceptance speech, the omission goes all but unnoticed.
When Angelina Jolie told the BBC last fall that she was going to slowly wind down her movie career in order to spend time with her children, she was quoted all over the world in Angelina to Retire stories. But now that she's making the spy thriller "Salt," and still has a To Do list that includes going to Russia to play Catherine the Great in Randall Wallace's "The Mercenary: Love and Honor" -- not to mention still being expected to star in "Atlas Shrugged," scripted by Wallace -- few notice she doesn't seem to be winding it down. Maybe it's so slow it's imperceptible.
UNEXPECTED: Ryan Murphy has made quite a name for himself by pushing the envelope on his show "Nip/Tuck" -- which is why it's surprising that he would sweeten things up a bit with the upcoming musical comedy "Glee."
"Totally. You're like, 'What? Ryan's doing a show about a high school glee club?'" acknowledges Jessalyn Gilsig, star of the forthcoming Fox show. "I knew he'd done 'Popular,' so it's not his first teen comedy, but this particular show is really sweet and very heartfelt," adds Jessalyn, who also played Gina Russo on "Nip/Tuck."
"One of the things about 'Nip/Tuck,' I know it has very shocking subject matter, but it's really preoccupied in dealing with the sense of trying to belong, and that's such a high school thing," she notes.
However, as she points out, a talented writer is a talented writer. "I feel like people will watch this and say, 'Oh, this is what he does.' He's just very good that way. It's sort of like a novelist who writes something set in Ireland, and then does something set in Italy, but you'd swear that person was Irish or Italian based on the book." While the show has not been given an exact premiere date, it is expected to snag the post-"American Idol" timeslot in the spring.
"We're just starting the first episode after the pilot right now. We're really excited," she says. "It's a very strange time obviously. To say I'm grateful to have this job is probably an understatement. Everyone's just glad to be working, and Ryan has such a clear vision that we're excited to go deeper into it."

American Idol Group 2 (Results) Three Contestants Make Top 12
By Susan Hatch
Feb 27, 2009
American idol again seems to be struggling with change as this show was a tough one, but the group 2 results are in and if you were waiting for a big surprise you won't see it this week. The top three contestants were fairly easy, certainly the fist two were absolute locks. The Thursday night results show is another piece of the puzzle to whittle down the new format of the Top 36, down to 12 and then it's the wild card fun.
Tonight's show had only one moment where we weren't exactly certain who was staying and who would need some wild card help. The first two are anti-cliactic as the Adam Lambert is in and certainly can work a stage and you can add Allison Iraheta right into the top twelve as well.

Robert Pattinson and Paris Hilton's Asian Coincidence
By Jessica Warren
Feb 27, 2009
Robert Pattinson has made his way from Los Angeles all the way over to Japan. Guess who else just happen to make the trip? it appears that someone has a very blonde socialite fan and we have quite the Asian coincidence as Paris Hilton just happen to be in Tokyo, Japan at the same time as Pattinson. It is a small world after all. Rob is in japan to promote his film, Paris is there with what is being called her boyfriend. Did she really follow Rob?
Back to the set, or at least what will be soon when New Moon kicks off. An earlier report notes that, "With filming just weeks away, the cast (with many roles still undecided) haven’t seen their lines, Debra Beste writes in a column that has all kinds of background and a behind the scenes look at the upcoming second film in the series.

Gwyneth Paltrow Shares Love With Madonna and GOOP
By Kate S. Campbell
Feb 27, 2009
Gwyneth Paltrow has fired back at critics of her Goop. According to an OK! magazine report, Gwyneth Paltrow hosted a New York charity event for Bent on Learning on Wednesday and offered up statements regarding her new website and also dishes on why she and Madonna are such good pals. Paltrow's website, GOOP.com carries the tagline..."Nourish The Inner Aspect” and she decided to launch the site "because I felt like I had a lot of really useful information that I was privileged enough to get, because I have this amazing, super, fortunate life."
She’s received a lot of grief for her holier than thou attitude but the middle aged starlet defends herself stating, "I think the people who are criticizing it or criticizing the idea of it, don't really get it, because if they did, they would like it..." The current newletter centers around Paris and all if has to offer. If you’re planning a trip to Paris, the site may actually be beneficial. It reads somewhat like a tour guide, albeit, poorly written and quite honestly boring, offering suggestions for restaurants, hotels and different sights so see.

TV: American Idol Results, Hosea Rosenberg Top Chef Winner
By Leslie Warren
Feb 27, 2009
TV buzz for the week has been mostly American Idol, but Hosea Rosenberg was crowned the "Top Chef Winner." Fox's big reality TV show is off to the races and already in Hollywood for season eight and the group 2 results are in. Three brand new possible American idol winners are through to the top 12. Allison Iraheta is only sixteen and she is in the top twelve. I love her, she seems solid and remember, David Archuleta.
Kris Allen stunned nearly everyone when his baby face made it through. How far can he go? Adam Lambert is solid if not spectacular, with the confidence for at least a top five spot. Can he keep it together for the entire season and make his run?
