The big debate: Domestic partnership equality
More human rights and counseling services are needed, not laws defining relationships. If they would put their efforts into making education, human rights and the economy a priority, the US might be able to regain it's once proud stature as a leader of the world. 8. Comment by Rick M.

Lohan Loses Her Leggings — Maybe For Some Scrubs
Finally! A leggingless Lohan. LL returned to the red carpet last week in a hot LBD but this is the first time in a while we have seen her casually dressed without those hideous leggings or tights she has been living in. It's too bad that the one time she ventures away from the security of having her legs covered that she doesn't have any friends to tell her that her ass is hanging out. So sad and yet so typical. Lindsay spent the weekend shopping, lunching and meeting with friends. Her fun routine is about to be interrupted with a trip to the morgue and watching what goes down in an ER as part of her requirements set in her DUI plea agreement. Maybe she was out looking for the appropriate outfit for the occasion. Lots more of Lindsay out and about in LA showing off her legs among other things so read more.
HOT live music at Super Thursday!
He did it well, too, pumping out a tight set that turned the massive crowd here into a sea of bouncing heads. Hip-hop/R&B group Next took the stage after Pokafase. They pretty much walked off the red carpet and onto the stage. Joey Fatone just walked by me. Anyway, Next sounded impeccable. Their smooth groove was perfect for slow dancing in this brisk weather. They ended their set with their single "Wifey," and left the stage to DJ Roonie G, who spun a scribble fest filled with fierce beats and samples from everyone from Kanye West to Prince. The crowd is going nuts behind me. Somebody's screaming for Jennifer Love-Hewitt. Not sure if she's actually here. We'll be getting Diddy with it shortly. We hope. .
Fallen Bainbridge champ still hanging around gym
Marie Welsh spun through the air, her body completing a flip with 2 1/2 twists before her feet landed solidly on the floor mat. Most of the Bainbridge High junior's body stopped twisting when her feet hit the mat. Her left knee was the exception. There was no audible pop, no exclamations of pain. Only a "mushy" feeling around her swollen knee signaled the torn anterior cruciate ligament and meniscus that brought Welsh's precocious gymnastics career to an equally precocious halt last May. The fear of reinjuring the knee never subsided. When she turned out for Bainbridge's first practice of the season in November, she would not even let herself jump from the low beam onto the floor. "I decided I wasn't going to do gymnastics because I just didn't want to reinjure it and go through that again," Welsh said.
