Mark Wahlberg "Creeped Out" By Brokeback Mountain Role

Apparently Mark Wahlberg was happy filmmaker Ang Lee passed him over for one of the roles in Academy Award winning film Brokeback Mountain because the idea of playing a gay cowboy "creeped him out."

At some point during the development of the film, he and Joaquin Phoenix were considered for the roles of Jack and Ennis, but Wahlberg felt uncomfortable about gay sex acts in a tent.

Wahlberg says, "I met with Ang Lee on that movie, I read 15 pages of the script and got a little creeped out. It was very graphic, descriptive - the spitting on the hand, getting ready to do the thing. I told Ang Lee, ‘I like you, you’re a talented guy, if you want to talk about it more…’ Thankfully, he didn’t.”

Jeff Goldblum has a stalker

Actor Jeff Goldblum has filed a restraining order against a 44-year-old woman, claiming that she has shown up to his house "unannounced and uninvited 20 times within the past month and over 50 times in the last three months."
Goldblum claims a woman named Linda Ransom has "sent harassing and threatening letters, stalked me at various locations, physically attacked my employee and accosted me."

According to the documents, Ransom met Goldblum at an acting school in Los Angeles where Goldblum teaches. She then began showing up at various locations where he performed with his jazz band, The Mildred Snitzer Orchestra.

In a statement included in the court documents, Ransom claims she was just trying to get Goldblum to "support my efforts to complete my research and screenplay as accurate as possible."

size DOES MATTER

Size Matters ... If You're A Rodent

Dr. Steve Ramm, an evolutionary biologist at the University of Liverpool, UK, compared the relative size of the penis bone in several mammal groups: "The data for rodents seem pretty clear cut. Species where sexual competition between males is most intense also tend to have the longest penises. But, interestingly, a similar pattern was not detected in either primates or bats." Understanding the reasons for these differences will require a better understanding of the precise mechanisms through which male rodents benefit from longer penises, something which comparative data alone cannot address.

Ben Affleck gets Anal

For Ben Affleck, one colonic was one too many. The actor has been on a health kick every since his wife, Jennifer Garner, gave birth to their daughter Violet just over a year ago. After giving up smoking Ben decided a good ol’ fashioned colon cleansing was in order. He tells Zoo Magazine:


“I lost my virginity all over again that day, in so many ways. I don’t think I will be having it done again.” (Source)

What is a Colonic?
Alternate Names: colonic hydrotherapy, colonic irrigation, colon irrigation

A colonic is the infusion of water into the rectum by a colon therapist to cleanse and flush out the colon.


What is a Typical Colonic Like?
After completing a health history form and consulting with the colon hydrotherapist, the client is asked to change into a gown and lie face up on a treatment table.

The colon therapist inserts a disposable speculum into the anus. The speculum is connected to a long disposable plastic hose connected to the colon hydrotherapy unit.

Warm, filtered water is slowly released into the colon. The water causes the muscles of the colon to contract, called peristalsis.

colonic Cleansing

Peristalsis "pushes" feces out through the hose to be disposed in a closed waste system.

The client and the therapist do not smell the feces. The therapist usually looks at the feces through the clear hose, and may comment on the color.

The client may feel some discomfort in the abdomen.

The therapist may apply light massage to the client's abdominal area to facilitate the process.

After the session, the therapist leaves the room, and the client may sit on a toilet to pass any residual water and stools.

A typical session lasts 45 minutes to one hour.

Sunshine Boy....Kenny Chesney

Kenneth Arnold Chesney (born March 26, 1968) is an American country music singer. He became known for his songs "No Shoes, No Shirt, No Problems" and "When the Sun Goes Down".




When Chesney married actress Renee Zellweger, it surprised many of their fans. Now, a year and a half after it ended, Chesney has decided to come clean. The country hit maker sat for an interview with “60 Minutes” correspondent Anderson Cooper.

Chesney and Zellweger met in January of 2005 and married in May......and then divorced in September of that same year. On the annulment papers they cited "fraud.” Chesney said that is what they thought would be least harmful.

Instead, that sent the tabloids into a tizzy about Chesney's sexuality. Sunday night, Chesney also addressed rumors that he is gay.

He said, “Maybe I should have come out and said, ‘No, I’m not,’ but I didn’t want to draw anymore attention to it, you know… because I knew that I wasn’t… its not true, period.”

Djimon Hounsou Strips to underwear for Calvin Klein

In the Janet Jackson's Love Will Never Do Video, a young and muscular Djimon Hounsou paraded and giggled in white underwear, for the world.

Since then, the African-born, award-winning actor, has displayed his muscular physique and acting ability in Amistad, Gladiator, and most recently, Blood Diamond.

WWD is reporting that Djimon Hounsou will return to his underwear roots for Calvin Klein's Fall 2007 Underwear advertising campaign

Djimon Hounsou will be featured in a global print and outdoor campaign supporting the launch of the brand’s latest product line, Calvin Klein Steel.

The Fall 2007 campaign, which will be shot in late March or early April, will appear internationally in more than 20 countries, with print and outdoor media timed to coincide with September 2007 magazine issues.



Tighty-whiteys

Were you watching the Oscar preshow Sunday when E! Entertainment red carpet host Ryan Seacrest asked best supporting actor nominee Djimon Hounsou what undies he was wearing? Hounsou will be featured in the launch of a new underwear line, Calvin Klein Steel.

After confirming that Hounsou was, indeed, wearing Calvin Klein under his tux, Seacrest proceeded to yank down his waistband and show the top of his own skivvies.




Men's undies accounted for $3.6 billion in sales during the fiscal year ended in October, up from $3.3 billion the year before, according to the NPD Group, a market research firm.



Unmentionables

What's he wearing under there?

Briefs, also known as tighty-whiteys, are the venerable standby that boys and men have worn for decades. They're most often white, made of cotton and tight-fitting above the thigh.
Boxers are loose-fitting shorts that come in a variety of fabrics and colors. The fly usually consists of overlapping fabric and sometimes has buttons.
Trunks are boxers cut very short.
Boxer briefs combine the close fit of briefs with the longer shorts of boxers. They're usually cotton.
Bikinis are close-fitting briefs with a low waist and no fly. Colors and fabrics vary wildly.
Thongs cover the essentials and not one square inch more. No color, print or fabric is off limits.

Military Monday

What you should know before
joining the military

Military Discipline and Living Conditions

Do you enjoy being bossed around? Do you want someone constantly telling you what to do and how to do it? If your answer is “no,” you may have a hard time adapting to military life. Federal law states that the military places “numerous restrictions on personal behavior that would not be acceptable in civilian society.” Military members are subject to military law 24 hours a day — even if they are off duty and off base—from beginning to end of their term (10 U.S.C. Sec. 654).

Disobedience in the military can result in court-martial, prison, or even the lifetime problem of a bad discharge. Furthermore, the enlistment agreement says that your status, pay, benefits and responsibilities in the military can change without warning and regardless of any promises in your agreement! Not surprisingly, a lot of people express unhappiness after joining the military. For example, in 1999 more enlistees in their first term were dissatisfied (41%) with the military way of life than were satisfied (35%). And only 29% of them said they were likely to stay on active duty in the military (1999 Survey of Active Duty Personnel, Dept. Of Defense).



Racism

In 1991, the head of the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights received hundreds of complaints of racism in the military. He issued a report saying discrimination haunts African-Americans, Latinos and women in the military. In 2000, 37.5% of the enlisted personnel were people of color, but only 16.2% of the officers were. Latinos in the Marine Corps, for example, made up 13.5% of the enlisted ranks, but only 5.8% of the officers. When the Los Angeles Times investigated the Ft. Leavenworth military prison in 1994, it found that 50% of all the inmates, and 83% of those under a military death sentence, were people of color.



Homophobia

Discrimination against gays, lesbians and bisexuals
is not only intense within the military, it is official
policy.

Witch hunts to kick lesbian and gay personnel out of the military continue. Since the so-called “Don’t ask, don’t tell” policy was introduced, the pace of forced discharges has actually increased. Violence and threats against those suspected of being gay are routine.



The Easy Money for College Myth

Recruiters might promise you tens of thousands of free dollars for college, but it’s not free—you must work for it. And it’s not automatic. Unless you qualify for special jobs or sign up for an extra-long term, you’ll never see the higher amounts of money. To qualify for any college aid at all, you have to pay a $1200 non-refundable deposit to the military. If you receive a less-than-honorable discharge (as about one in four people do), leave the military in less than 3 years, (as one in three do), or later decide not to go to college, the military will keep your deposit and give you nothing.

57% of the veterans who sign up for the GI Bill have never seen a penny in college assistance, and the average net payout to veterans has been only $2151. 29% of veterans have been determined not eligible for benefits at the time of their discharge, either for being discharged early or with a less than honorable discharge. These veterans have thus lost both their $1200 payroll deduction and any hope of benefits at all.

Even for veterans who qualify for the MGIB, there is still one more surprising twist. When a veteran files for Federal Student Aid to determine how much they can pay for college, money from the GI Bill is counted as an asset, and subtracted from whatever aid package they would have received if they weren't getting money from the GI Bill. Therefore, the expected out-of-pocket financial contribution from a veteran will be exactly the same as if they never entered the military. The total financial aid package will be no greater than for a non-veteran of equal financial status.

The military takes in a lot of money that will not be paid back. In other words, it’s really the military that profits, not veterans. Colleges can help you find aid if you need it, and it pays to investigate these options before agreeing to give away years of your life to the military. Once you complete school, you can start earning the higher wages of a college graduate right away.
