House of Wax: We suspect that a female impersonator is passing as Courtney Love, because holy shit, what happened to her face? (She's in the second column, second row  in the smaller pictures on the right.)

Newsflash: Carbs are still way bad for you, but this week, they might also give you Alzheimer's. Next week, expect carbs to cause the sun to burn out and cast the entire planet into darkness. It could happen.

Don't Let The Door Hit You In Your Big Fat Ass: New Zealand doesn't want overweight people in the country, mucking up the scenery. Unless it's Peter Jackson.

Veggie McNuggets: If the government had McDonalds' advertising budget for its plan of five fruits and veggies a day, would we all be a few sizes smaller?

Moment of Silence: The woman who taught Martha Stewart how to tie those pretty and perfect bows has passed on. Martha Kostrya was 93.

Twenty Years B.E. (Before Elmo): Old School Sesame Street wouldn't get on the air today, given that Cookie Monster exhibits an unhealthy relationship with food and Oscar is suffering from acute depression or perhaps a personality disorder (we will not speak of the love that dare not speak its name between Bert and Ernie). No wonder Gen Xers never make the news, we're still too traumatized by the idea of monsters and people living as one (and WTF were the Tweedlebugs?).

Imaginary Monkeys Attacking Her Face, Perhaps? Amy Winehouse's manager has had enough of her shit and has quit on her. Bonus: she lit up in the lavatory of an airplane, pissing off everyone on the plane (but didn't get in trouble for it) and following the link is worth it just for the great picture of her losing her shit.

Dunder-Mifflin Closed Until Further Notice: Why is it that all of the best shows (House, Ugly Betty, Grey's Anatomy, How I Met Your Mother) are endangered species, but dreg like Men In Trees and fricking Cavemen can go on for a few more months?

French Women Do, In Fact, Get Fat: Public Radio's obesity series last week is fascinating and still available on their Web site. Their piece on size acceptance in France is fantastic and features gorgeous Galliano model Velvet D'Amour.
