Entertainment Overnight -- Ain't My First Rodeo

Ain't the first time I've seen yer dog and pony show

Three notes on Angelina Jolie

1) She seems anorexic; 2) She seems to be "flipping out", what with the seemingly clear anorexia and that whole "I gotta' make sure I stick my leg out of this dress everywhere I'm seen" thing and 3) I think she and Brad will split (OH, NO. I'M AGHAST). I mean, sure, it's a Hollywood couple and that's as frequent and cheap as you get but I think somehow people thought these two were different and above all that. I doubt it. Seriously. Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow but soon and for the rest of their lives.

A person from Time Magazine's "100 List" you should particularly know about

From Time Magazine's cover story, "100 Most Influential People in the World", there is one person who, it seems to me, we particularly need to know about, so we can learn from her story and change more things for females in the world:

Reem Al Numery

Al Numery was forced to marry her 30-year-old cousin when she was only 12, and her own father threatened to murder her when she fought back and ran away. Yemeni officials refused her petition for a divorce, and she was unable to attend a ceremony in her honor in the U.S. because she was forbidden to leave her home country. "While my hair was styled for the ceremony, I thought of ways to set fire to my wedding dress," she said. "When I protested, my dad gagged me and tied me up. After the wedding, I tried to kill myself twice." She was finally granted a divorce from the Yemeni legal system and is an advocate for ending child marriage. In her tribute in Time, feminist leader Gloria Steinem describes Reem "one of the brave girl children who are risking everything to protest being sold into marriage by fathers and becoming the endangered and uneducated chattel of husbands."
