Tens of thousands of New Jersey residents are without power. Many have lost homes and everything else that they have. Some don’t have enough to eat and others are struggling to stay warm.

Biden told an audience consisting primarily of black Americans that if selected to read a teleprompter for the bankster elite, Romney and a Republican Congress would put them back in chains. “I think if it came from somebody serious, maybe we’d get all excited about it,” Giuliani said on CNBC’s [...] Comedian Jimmy Fallon is in talks to host the Oscars in February, with “Saturday Night Live” veteran Lorne Michaels producing, three people with knowledge of the discussions said. ABC has raised objections to having the late-night star from rival NBC play emcee on its Oscar broadcast, these people said, but the network has no authority to veto the choice of host.

Al Franken), a hit recording artist (former Rep. Sonny Bono) and an astronaut (former Sen. John Glenn) to Congress, a former Miss America Pageant winner wants to try her hand at lawmaking.

It marks another high-profile Hollywood death connected to drug use, coming less than three years after Michael [...] By Anita Kumar, Published: February 21 RICHMOND — Gov. Robert F. McDonnell is backing off his unconditional support for a billrequiring women to have an ultrasound before an abortion, focusing new attention on one of the most controversial pieces of legislation in Virginia’s General Assembly this year.

French activist groups said the “Jew or Not Jew?” app violated bans on compiling information on people’s religion and revealing that religion without their consent, according to United Press International. The app, which became available last month, can [...] By Jim Spencer For a moment Wednesday, Al Franken looked like he was back on the set of Saturday Night Live and not on the floor of the U.S. Senate.

But Mayor Bloomberg never did tell us when we could resume conspicuous consumption after the crash of 2008.

A case in point was the [...] Alexandra Oliver as Sarah Pine Hollywood tends to “depict conservatives and traditionalists and people of faith as halfwits,” says founder of Colony Bay, which will debut its first project, a drama set in Colonial America, at a premiere on Sunday.
