THE BIG A&E STORY THIS WEEK IS:
President Barack Obama had two public addresses broadcast this week regarding the debt ceiling debate one was Sunday night on an emergency deal to avoid to avert the nation’s first-ever financial default. The arrangement would cut more than $2 trillion from federal spending over a decade as the president said at the White House, relaying the news to the nation and to financial markets around the world. He thanked the leaders of both parties.
(House Speaker John Boehner reportedly telephoned Obama at mid-evening to say the agreement had been struck, officials said).and the other was on the day the bill passed the Senate on the deadline of the supposed breakdown of government, Tuesday August 2. President Obama’s appearance in the Rose Garden on Tuesday seemed like the end of a storm. He announced that the Senate had passed the deal he brokered with congressional leaders, thanked the American people for “keeping up the pressure” on Congress, and said that the important work to be done after the August recess was to create jobs.
To all those caught up in the frenzy of the debt-ceiling fight in Washington these past few weeks, it seemed like a moment of relief. But it was only the eye of the storm, the “first step,” as Obama called it.
“I've said it before. I will say it again. We can't balance the budget on the backs of the very people who have borne the biggest brunt of this recession,” Obama said at the podium, repeating his words of a week or two ago, before he conceded to a deal that did not immediately raise revenues. “Since you can’t close the deficit with just spending cuts, we’ll need a balanced approach where everything’s on the table.”
“Everyone has to chip in. It’s only fair. That’s the principle I’ll be fighting for during the next phase of this process,” Obama said, citing priorities he had to abandon in the final phase of the debt-ceiling battle: reforming the tax code to increase revenues from the wealthy and eliminating taxpayer subsidies to oil and gas companies and other tax loopholes that allow the rich to pay lower taxes than middle-class workers.
His message: This fight is not over -- this is just halftime.
Obama’s remarks came within the hour after the deal passed the Senate on a 74-26 vote. Shortly after, he signed the bill into law behind closed doors.
We just find it interesting that a deal had been struck on the deadline. But with all deals there is a give and take measure. For starters, Medicare and military spending (jobs, particularly) will be cut in a matter of years in order to save a couple of trillion from its already debt spending. Which means those who depend on both are going to suffer the consequences. But, Obama’s hands were tied and had to do something before the Dow Jones totally plummeted into a fa real Depression circa 1930s. But we just find it interesting with the whole Satan sandwich talk with the deal between fellow partymen that it was eaten loooooong before Obama got into office!

TIED FOR BIG STORY is the President's 50th birthday party that took place at the White House Thursday.nite with a celebrity-filled bash, as entertainer Chris Rock reported on his Twitter feed: "Just left the Presidents birthday party at the White House. Herbie Hancock played, Stevie Wonder sang and yes they did the electric slide. A great night."
Daughter Malia, 13 just arrived home from summer camp in time for the Rose Garden party as she was joined by her sister, Sasha, 10, First Lady Michelle, grandmother Marian Robinson and their godmother, Eleanor "Mama Kaye, Wilson," who flew to Washington from Chicago on Air Force One with Obama when he returned from his Thursday fund-raiser back home.
Obama's party--paid for by the First Couple--was closed press and not on his official schedule. Eddie Gehman Kohan, who presides over Obama Foodorama, the website of record about entertaining in the Obama White House, put together a detailed report about the five-hour barbeque, based on interviews of people who were there.
From Kohan's article: "Stevie Wonder gave a "surprise" performance during the celebration; his hit "You and I" was the President and First Lady Obama's wedding song. Revelers included Jay Z; Tom Hanks; Chris Rock; hoops legends Charles Barkley and Grant Hill; Whoopi Goldberg; Dallas Cowboys Hall of Famer Emmitt Smith; and actor Hill Harper. He's one of the President's closest chums from Harvard law school, and star of CSI: NY. Jazz great
"The night was balmy, and when dinner was done, a DJ spun dance tunes--"like at a Bar Mitzvah," said one guest. The twenty tables for ten in the Rose Garden were pushed aside so guests could dance, led by the President and Mrs. Obama.
"...Also on hand to mark the Presidential milestone were former governors Bill Richardson and Tim Kaine, and Mr. Obama's staunchest allies in the debt battle--Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi. Senior White House staff also celebrated: Chief of Staff Bill Daley, Cecelia Munoz, John Brennan, and Valerie Jarrett. Mrs. Obama's former Chief of Staff, Susan Sher, flew in from Chicago, as did two of the President's closest pals: Dr. Eric Whitaker, University of Chicago Hospital Vice-President, and The Parking Spot President and CEO Marty Nesbitt. Campaign fundraiser Andy Spahn was spotted, too."
Wow too bad the media wasn’t invited and we sure cam phones were not allowed. This could have easily had been a special that could have been televised for sure! Wonder how the President danced there. LOL Guess they didn’t want to show the First Couple really let their hair down for the cameras while the Debt Relief bill just passed.
Speaking of the b-day fundraiser, The President came to former home of
Donors paid between $50 and $35,800, the legal maximum, to attend.
That price had some Republicans bristling, given the nation's struggling economy and the just-averted debt crisis.
Despite the heat in the packed ballroom, the president showed a healthy sense of humor saying that he’ll wake up with an email from AARP telling him to “call President Obama and tell him to protect Medicare."
In the drawn-out debt negotiations, Republicans had called for major cuts to Medicare funding. The audience greeted the zinger with loud applause.
In unrelated Obama newz, Former Illinois Governor/reality show star Rod Blagojevich - who faces up to 300 years in prison - will be sentenced on Oct. 6 for trying to sell President Barack Obama’s Senate seat and other crimes, it was announced on Monday.Blagojevich, 54, was convicted on 18 counts, which include the 17 counts from the most recent trial and an earlier trial that led to a hung jury on most of the charges and one conviction. He faces as many as 300 years behind bars, but is expected to receive a sentence of about 10 years, according to legal experts cited by the Associated Press.
The former governor is currently free on $450,000 bail after having put up his home and another of his properties as collateral. Blagojevich is seeking a new trial and claims that he was “bamboozled” by the judge in the case that concluded in June.
“The Court explicitly told defense counsel that the only path to acquittal was through Blagojevich’s testimony,” reads a filing obtained by the Chicago Tribune. “When Blagojevich finally took the stand, he was bamboozled by the Court’s rulings and assertions throughout the trial.”
Blagojevich claims that he was unfairly treated by the prosecution because they did not play a sufficient number of recorded conversations that feature Blagojevich, which he says help prove his innocence. Blagojevich also claims in the filing that judicial bias favored the prosecution in the most recent trial.

From reports, there were some criticisms of her receiving the award because her work is mainly in TV rather than movies, but her supporters feel she is deserving being a nominee for the actual Oscar for Best Supporting Actress in 1985 for her debut in Steven Spielberg’s Oscar nominated epic “The Color Purple, ” spearheading the success of the Oscar winning film, “Precious,” and being an Academy member. They say her award will not be the same as what Oscar nominee James Earl Jones will receive for his body of work in film that will telecast on the actual award show next February.

In unrelated Oprah newz she got sued over call letters OWN of her new network. Though Winfrey is encouraging to "Own Your Life," as goes the new brand message at her cable network, OWN, Simone Kelly-Brown, founder of Own Your Power Communications Inc., insists that she came up with the OYP concept and, while waiting for her trademark to come through, Winfrey's Harpo Studios started using the acronym for its own gain. Kelly-Brown is seeking damages in light of what her lawsuit calls Winfrey's "brazenly unlawful disregard for the existence and use of [OTP's] trademark."
The October 2010 issue of O magazine boasted the slogan across the cover and there is a section on Oprah.com devoted to the concept.
"Under such circumstances," states the suit, filed this week in New Jersey and obtained by EW.com, "with [Winfrey and Harpo] being much larger, spending more money, having a wider reach, and an overlapping audience with the much smaller Company, particularly with one of the most influential women in the world at the helm...[OTP has] been irreparably harmed."
Hmm, we don’t think brown has a case especially if she was waiting for her trademark to be finalized. If it was finalized before Oprah’s brand name then it may be a case of who copied whom first. And why did she wait so long to file Another flag. We think she just wanted some publicity in order for people to go to her OWN thing.
In related Oprah newz, OWN has announced that it will be repackaging 25 years' worth of material from The Oprah Winfrey Show, which ended its run in May, for a "new" daily series called Own Your Life, the title in question from the lawsuit
Winfrey will host “Own Your Life” at 8 weeknights, starting Oct. 10, on OWN, the Oprah Winfrey Network. Winfrey will borrow segments from her daytime show to put across her life lessons, and class will continue at Oprah.com.

Hmm, wonder if the two superstar rapper’s ego had anything to do with all these changes.
Meanwhile the first official single from the CD, “Otis” featuring Otis Redding zoomed up the Billboard Hot 100 this week in its second week from No. 47 to No. 12. It also moved u from No. 13 to No, 8 on the Rap Tracks chart and from No, 15 to No. 13 on the R&B/Hip Hop charts.
In more Hova and Ye newz, they just hosted another listening party for "Watch the Throne" this week. Unlike the previous one which was low key and attended by a handful of selected music journalists and two lucky fans, this latest bash is a star-studded affair.
Busta Rhymes, Jada Pinkett Smith and Q-Tip were among the attendees. The former Destiny's Child members, Beyonce Knowles and Kelly Rowland, who reunited last week for Kelly's album party once again met each other for the occasion. Jigga's sister-in-law Solange Knowles came to show her support as well.
The private party took place at the Hayden Planetarium at the American Museum of Natural History in New York City. The gathering seemed to serve as a launching party as well since it was held only a week before the album comes out in the U.S. on August 8.
+++++++++++++++++++++
And in more related Hov and ye newz, Mediatakeout reported last week that Kanye got slapped around by Jay Z during the recording of their CD. Jay-Z has shot down reports of a rift with Kanye West, blaming disgruntled rivals for spreading false rumors about the rap duo because they are “really hot right now”.
It also was alleged they had fallen out days before the release of their joint album Watch The Throne, amid claims Ye wanted to spend too much money on set costs for their upcoming tour. But Jay-Z has dismissed the reports, insisting they would never let something so small interfere with their working relationship.
In an impromptu radio interview with
“Kanye’s my brother, if there’s ever a problem with us… Yes, we get on each other’s nerves but that’s part of pushing each other… So of course there are times when we’re in the studio, we’re yelling, but that’s about it… I would never disrespect (West). I have too much respect to put my hands on him.
“We have a healthy respect for one another… It’s always about the art, it’s never about him and me; it’s always about the art.”
And last week, the pair performed at the same concert - but they DID NOT go on stage together.
According to our pals at the NY POST, Jigga and Yeezy's disagreement stems from their upcoming concert - where Jay wants to keep costs down, and Yeezy wants an EXPENSIVE over-the-top production.
Well, we don’t know how far this supposed altercation went but one thing is certain, we are sure they had some type of disagreement. Both are huge superstars with huge egos and Jay Z even said they got on each others nerves and we are sure on one occasion Ye got on Jay Z’s nerves a heal of times. Ye is a livewire so it makes sense
And last in the Jay Z and West newz, music video director Spike Jonze will direct the video for the duo’s single, “Otis” Jonze has directed for the likes of Bjork, The Beastie Boys, Sonic Youth, R.E.M., Arcade Fire and, too many to name. The director previously collaborated with West on the video for "Flashing Lights" back in 2008, and on a short film adaptation of West's song "See You in My Nightmares" in 2009, titled "We Were Once a Fairytale."
Sources close to Chicago native talk show host and comedian Sheri Shepherd told TMZ she's been approached by one of her favorite shows "Dancing With The Stars " he for this upcoming season -- and they've been "aggressively courting her."
But Shepherd is getting married later this month -- during hiatus from "The View" -- and were told once she goes back to work ... there just won't be time for "DWTS."
But Shepherd did NOT turn down Dancing with the Stars, her rep confirms to RumorFix.
But that doesn’t necessarily mean she is going to appear on the show.
But one thing was certain, Shepherd practiced a dance routine for the show but for upcoming wedding to Lamar Sally. She recruited Shane Sparks and Donyelle Jones from "So You Think You Can Dance" to choreograph steps for a group dance at her wedding party, and "The View" sent a camera crew to capture the process.
"When I told everybody that I wanted to do a dance, everybody was in shock," said Sherri. "I really didn't think we were going to be able to do it, but you know what I love about our groomsmen and our bridesmaids? They said, 'You know what, Sherri? For you, we'll do it.'"
Shane reportedly didn't seem as impressed with the group of 40-plus adults, which included Yvette Nicole Brown ("Community") and Kym Whitley ("My Wife and Kids"), so he aired his grievances, saying, "In the beginning it was hard. I just realized that some people have bad hips, bad backs, prosthetic legs ... some don't know their head from their feet."
The dance segment was aired on "The View" July 28 and 29.

The St Louis Rams signed several players this week since the post NFL lockout contract was signed. Two players in particular were running back Cadillac Williams (PICTURED--who platye dhis last six seasons with
AND
La Russa appeared to briefly engage in some banter after Tuesday’s 8-7, 11-inning win, then called the fans “idiots” in comments after a game in which both teams saw star players beaned, and the Cardinals’ Yadier Molina was ejected for arguing balls and strikes.
“It’s going way too far when they start cursing your family and the funniest one, the guy’s yelling, ‘I hope you get shingles again,’ ” La Russa said Wednesday. “That’s just stupid.”
La Russa said that Brewers officials removed several fans near
La Russa was attempting to argue they didn't intentionally hit Braun and the reporter wouldn't drop it. And we went off.
The incident at hand occurred when the game turned tense in the seventh round.
Albert Pujols was hit in the seventh inning on the left hand near the wrist he broke earlier this season. X-rays after the game were negative. Brewers star Ryan Braun was then plunked by Jason Motte in the bottom of the inning.
“You don’t want to get into a bean ball war,” Braun said. “That’s never fun.”
La Russa had not heard from Major League Baseball about potential discipline for Yadier Molina, who appeared to make contact with plate umpire Rob Drake after arguing a called third strike in the 10th inning.
Drake had to wipe his face after it appeared he was hit by spittle while Molina was yelling. Molina maintained he did not spit on Drake, saying he was sweaty and any contact he made with Drake was incidental.
We cant blame LaRussa for going off on the reporter who continued hammering the issue of the Cards pitcher trying to hit Braun on purpose after Pujols was hit by a Brewer. The question was more if the Pujols hit was on purpose or accidental and the Braun hit likewise. Either way, Larussa had to defend his teammates regardless because if he didn’t his teammates would have looked at him as if he didn’t defend them. And we all know LaRussa can be a time bomb during press conferences so we think that reporter who made Larissa flip out knew exactly what he was doing.
AND
Prior to the Brewers game, with cameras flashing across Busch Stadium, Albert Pujols collected his 2,000th Major League hit in Friday's 9-2 win over the Cubs with an RBI double in the eighth inning. He scorched Carlos Marmol's offering down the left-field line, and the Cardinals faithful erupted in unison. By the time he got to second base, the crowd was on its feet and a video tribute flashed across the scoreboard. Pujols tipped his hat to the 42,042 on hand and admitted he was moments away from shedding a tear.
Speaking of Busch Stadium, parts of the sidewalk around Busch Stadium were blocked off last Monday after a 100-pound piece of metal trim fell from the stadium, prompting an inspection of the rest of the building's trim. Inspectors checked later that week to see whether other pieces of the covering, used on all sides of the stadium, need to be better secured, The 2-foot-by-4-foot black metal plate fell from the west side of the stadium, off South Eighth Street near Spruce Street, and was discovered shortly after noon by a landscaper. As a result, construction crews began removing more than 100 decorative black steel plates from Busch Stadium. Inspectors believe rusted anchor bolts holding the 2-foot-by-4-foot panel eroded, causing it to fall about 80 feet to the sidewalk. He said water had seeped between the panel and the concrete face it was covering. He said the recent heat wave may have caused the rusted bolts to expand, forcing the panel loose.
After removing the 102 plates over the next few days, workers may paint the spaces covered by the trim instead of installing new panels, officials said. The work was finished before the Cardinals next home game, which was this past Tuesday against the Milwaukee Brewers.
Good thing there wasn’t a home game when those panels fell because it could have been some serious injury to some people and lawsuits pending for sure.
