Drew Peterson, the Bolingbrook, Illinois police sergeant who has been suspected of killing his third and fourth wives, Kathleen Savio and Stacy Peterson, has been arrested in the case surrounding his third wife's death. Kathleen Savio was found dead in a dry bathtub just before all of the marital assets were finalized in their divorce. At first the thought was an accidental drowning. Seems a little odd she drowned in a dry tub? This was the theory and Peterson was let off until his fourth wife came up missing. I'm sure his being a police sergeant in the police department in Bolingbrook didn't have pull on letting him of the hook so easy, do you?
With the investigation into Stacy Peterson's disappearance on October 28th, 2007 renewed interest in Savio's death. Authorities then exhumed the body and her death was ruled"homicide staged to look like an accident."

I'm scared of mayonnaise. There, I've said it. The smell, the texture, the color... it makes me cringe. Once when I was pregnant with my second child, my husband and I were headed to the park. On the way there, we stopped at Burger King. I ordered the chicken sandwich plain as I normally do and was excited about my little snack. Once we had the bag in the car and pulled away from the drive-thru window, I opened the wrapper and... no, no, no... I freaked out! The sandwich was swimming in mayo. Literally, I started bawling (it could have been pregnancy hormones) and started trembling. I just knew that someone was out to get me by slathering mayonnaise on my chicken sandwich. A speck of the mayo then touched my skin and my body became stiff as a board. The sandwich then fell on the floorboard and was inedible.
There are times in your life you learn never to pull away from the drive-thru without looking in the bag first.
What food phobias do you have?
What's the wackiest thing to happenJonn and Kate Plus 8: Confirmed Affair, Will this be the end?
By Leigh Ann Fisher | Love + Sex – Wed, May 6, 2009 3:20 PM EDT
We've wondered. We've questioned. We now know, Jon has been having an affair with Deanna Hummel, a 23 year old third grade teacher in Reading, Pennyslvania.
According to Us Weekly, the reality tv star has been hooking up with Hummel since around mid- January. Hummel's brother Jason tells Us Weekly he wants to set the record straight about his naive sister."She's a nice girl, not a homewrecker," Jason tells Us Weekly. "He is a bad liar. This isn't healthy for her. But she is refusing to help herself, so here I am trying to help her myself. I hope this clears the air."
Will this be the end of Jon and Kate Plus 8? Can you just imagine what Kate Gosellin is going through at this time? Will you be glad to see the show end if this is the case?

My husband works from home with me. We share the same office and at this moment I am typing listening to him try and fix a problem that is occuring with a sales issue that has reared it's ugly head.
I was in sales once. I was a kitchen designer. I drew up plans on the computer for kitchen and bath remodels. I assigned electrical blueprints to the floorplans. Redesigned for the client "taste" of the moment... redesigned again when Sally Sue down the street had the pot filler installed above her stove and of course that must be in their kitchen also... redesigned again when "We just have to have two dishwashers." (oh, did I mention they order take out every night?)
Then came the installation process. Did everything come in right? Do the cabinets fit? No... something was measured wrong... back orders... manufacturers problems...strike at the plant... on and on... Needless to say, when the company had to downsize because builders couldn't get construction loans in thisUser post: Would You Stay After an Affair for the Kids?

As seen in the upcoming episode to air this Thursday on The Oprah Winfrey Show, Elizabeth Edwards sheds light into what it's like to be the betrayed. Promoting her book Resilience, Elizabeth Edwards talks about overcoming the woes of a partner who has stepped out in a marriage and tasted the forbidden fruit that lies on the other side.
She tells Oprah that in terms of loving John "it's complicated." Though the two remain living together in their 28,000 sq. ft. home in Chapel Hill, North Carolina it remains unclear if the two will remain that way. Elizabeth says she is taking it "month by month."
Reille Hunter was the videographer who was hired by Edwards campaign to produce a series of webisodes for the campaign. After meeting up with John one night in a hotel bar and telling him "You are so hot." the two embarked on with an affair. A child was born around the time this affair was taking place. It is still unclear in the media if John did father the baby who was born to Reille HunterWhat some people allow themselves to appear in public in is beyond me! Enjoy!
Yes, you know you should but are you? In my town alone last year, the city collected 12,166,490 lbs. of recyclables from city operations and residents. For a town with about 11,800 people, that is a lot. Just imagine what your town or city does and could recycle if you just took the initiative.That is a whole lot waste that can be remade into other materials.
So how about you? Are you recycling?
Why or why not?

Anna Nicole did it. John and Kate Plus 8 have done it. Denise Richardson, The Osbournes, The Hogans and The Lohans have all had their time on screen. Octo-mom wants to do it.
How about yourself? Would you put your most intimate moments on screen for others to watch, laugh at and critique?
I have actually had people tell me my family should be on a reality show.. um... NO! You think I want someone with cameras in my house watching me wake up in the morning, get the kids off to school and watch the attitude of a preteen and her sisters. I think I'll keep some of my life private. Isn't that your private life?
How about you? Why or why not?User post: Jon and Kate Plus 8: Abuse Hidden On Camera?

I have watched a couple of episodes of Jon and Kate Plus 8 and my verdict: Kate Gosselin seems like a demanding mother/woman that treats her husband as if he is an idiot that better do what she wants him to do and better not have anything to say about it. Seems like a great marriage, right?
Seeing the news that Jon was out until 2 in the morning with an unidentified woman doesn't make me like him anymore but shows that when the home life is a mess, someone will stray or act out in manner that requires action. I am not promoting the activity he is taking part in, but almost feel sorry for him. While Kate Gosselin is off promoting her book Eight Little Faces, Jon is out having the time of his life it seems.
Being the mother of the three, time away from the children is necessary for the mother and father, especially time together, alone. This helps you reconnect and brings you back to the foundations of your relationship that began before the children.

The Chicago Sun Times has released a statement claiming Rihanna and Chris Brown are back together and living with each other. With public opinion and a roar from celebrities such as Oprah Winfrey about domestic abuse, sources are saying that Rihanna would like to keep the news of their cohabitation out of the limelight for now.
Sources have stated: "Unfortunately, Rihanna still wants him and has told all of us to 'get over yourselves. … I'm with him, so deal with it.' "
This is a sad day for women all over who have suffered at the hand of their attacker and choose to go back to the situation that put them a hospital and in the middle of a police investigation.
Why is it so easy for women to return to their attacker? Is independence so difficult that putting yourself back in a situation where violence may again stem from a heated argument or a desire to control the other is easier than walking away? Are you disappointed in Rihanna's decision to return to her attacker? Do you feel
