Kate’s Hearing Wedding Bells – But Is Alex?
Kate Hudson is notorious for being clingy when she’s with a boyfriend so it’s no surprise that she’s all over Madonna’s ex ‘pal’ Alex Rodriguez like a rash.
‘She’s always travelling with the team now,’ says a pal of the actress, ‘and she’s practically living at his place in New York. She’s always at his apartment, even when he’s off on the road. She’s made herself quite comfortable in his life. She’s met his oldest daughter and her son likes Alex. She has become very serious about him.’
After just five months Kate is already hearing wedding bells in her future. A-Rod, not so much. Our spy says: ‘It’s unlikely that it’s heading towards marriage for him. He’s taking it slow and seeing where it goes.’ In the meantime, at least he has Kate to come home to.


Reeves To Take DNA Test To Finally Clear His Name
Keanu Reeves has finally agreed to take a DNA test to prove once and for all that he is not the father of a Canadian woman’s kids. Earlier this year, Reeves was sued for paternity by 45-year-old Karen Sala, who insists the actor fathered at least one of her four adult children.
During initial hearings, Sala claimed Reeves had admitted being the dad and even visited the kids on a regular basis. He, however, has always insisted he’s never even met Sala.
The DNA test is to take place within the next four weeks, but Reeves has also demanded that Sala’s husband give samples too and that the tests are performed at an LA laboratory of his choice.

Miley Nabs Her Man
The girlfriend of Miley Cyrus’ latest co-star is blaming the teen singer for splitting up their five-year romance.
Cyrus has been filming The Last Song with 18-year-old Aussie Liam Hensworth and was rumoured to have become close to her colleague after she was spotted cosying up with him at a Nashwille airport last month.
Although Cyrus herself denies any romance, that’s not how Hemsworth’s long-term squeeze Laura Griffin sees it. She says that as soon as Hemsworth returned home, she was dumped and she reckons Miley was the cause.
‘There’s no other reason we would have broken up,’ she wailed. ‘Liam and I have been inseparable since school. But she’s Miley Cyrus. How can I complete?’

Fans Go Mad For Jessica As Filming Begins
The sequel to the Sex And The City movie has only just begun filming in New York, but the set has descended into mayhem, with Sarah Jessica Parker warning her bodyguards to tone down their antics.
At one point, teenage girls were practically trampling each other trying to get to Sarah Jessica as she was walking back to her trailer, but her security team were shoving everyone out of the way,’ says an eyewitness. ‘When Sarah Jessica saw what was going on, she warned them not to hurt her fans. She looked extremely upset and concerned.’
Parker isn’t the only focus of attention. Co-star Cynthia Nixon had to have her trailer rerouted when it was besieged by overeager fans. “They were just too much,’ says a source. ‘Security looked legitimately concerned for her safety.’ Things got so bad that shooting was abandoned.


Dirty Dancing Star Patrick Swayze Dies At 57
Patrick Swayze personified a particular kind of masculine grace both on and off screen, from his roles in films like Dirty Dancing and Ghost to the way he carried himself in his long fight with pancreatic cancer. Swayze died from the illness On September 14 in Los Angeles, his publicist said. He was 57.
“Patrick Swayze passed away peacefully with family at his side after facing the challenges of his illness for the last 20 months,” said Annett Wolf in a statement. She declined to give details.
Fans of the actor were saddened to learn in March 2008 that Swayze was suffering from a deadly form of cancer. He continued working despite the diagnosis, putting together a memoir with his wife and shooting The Beast, a drama series for which he had already made the pilot.
Swayze said he chose not to use painkillers while making The Beast because they would have taken the edge off his performa-nce. The show drew a respect-able 1.3 million viewers when the 13 episodes ran this year.

WEEK ON A PAGE

Romance In The Sun
Sun, sea and romance are on the menu for Prince William and his girlfriend Kate Middleton after they jetted to the Caribbean isle of Mustique for an intimate vacation. The trip came just days after the attractive brunette returned from a family holiday on the island.
During her ten days back in the UK, Kate and the Prince were guests at the wedding of their friend Nicholas van Cutsem and his pretty bride Alice Hadden-Paton.
Their base during this break is thought to be a five-bedroom cliff-top villa costing £2,000 a night. The property, apparently one of the most opulent in Mustique, boasts an infinity pool, a private beach and a team of eight staff members to cater to their every whim.
By day, the lovebirds have been jet-skiing and taking strolls along the shore, while evenings are spent at their favourite nightspot on the island, Basil's.


Life Without 28 Feet Of Fingernails
A Salt Lake City woman who held the Guinness record for longest fingernails says a car crash that broke them has been a blessing because she never could have cut them herself. The 68-year-old woman Lee Redmond hadn't cut her nails since 1979. They measured a total of 28 feet, 4 inches, with the longest one on her right thumb at 2 feet, 11 inches.
But she lost them during an accident that threw her from the car. "The first thing I spotted was a fingernail, and I thought,' Oh.' Then I started to cry and said, ‘There's one of my fingernails,' " Lee Redmond reveals. "A sweet lady picked them up and I told her they were a Guinness world record, so she went around and gathered fragments of fingernails. It was just something I had to accept because I couldn't change anything," says Redmond, in her first comments about life without the long nails.

Mourinho ‘Should Speak Less’
When Inter Milan coach Jose Mourinho, who has referred to himself as a “Special One”, substituted Ghanaian international Sulley Muntari after just 30 minutes of their game against Bari, he could never have imagined what storm the substitution would unleash.
However, it was probably not so much the substitution, but what Mourinho said afterwards, that set the wheels in motion.
The Portuguese coach reportedly said: “Muntari had some problems related to Ramadan, perhaps with this heat it’s not good for him to be doing this fasting”.
Understandably
An Italian Muslim leader Mohammad Noor Dachan, said that Mourinho would do better if he spoke less. “A practicing (Muslim) player is not weakened because we know from the Institute of Sports Medicine that mental and psychological stability can give a sportsman an extra edge on the field.”
Debate
Mourinho’s words opened an ongoing debate, which becomes relevant once a year, when Muslims worldwide celebrate Ramadan. Some like German-based Demba Ba, have found a personal compromise that sees him drink between sunrise and sunset only on match days. Like Ba, there are many players who find strength for their sporting prowess in religion.

Ditch Suit And Save Power
The Bangladeshi Prime Minister has ordered public servants to ditch suits and ties for short-sleeved shirts to cut air-conditioning use in the power-staved nation.
Shaikh Hasina first raised the idea at a cabinet meeting last month and asked her colleagues to set an example for other government employees.
“She told us to avoid suits and ties on hot days and to wear plain, simple shirts,” said communications minister Syed Abdul Husain.
“The Prime Minister pointed out that air conditioning is a luxury and if we wear lighter clothing we will need to use less AC. I’ve already noticed top public servants are no longer wearing suits and ties.”
The official dress code for civil servants, written in 1982, was last week altered to accommodate Hasina’s instructions.
Last month her government unveiled a $6 billion power plant building programme to end a chronic energy shortage in the country.

Faux Pas
A bank in the southeast US state of Florida refused to cash a cheque for an armless man because he could not provide a thumbprint.
“They looked at my prosthetic hands and the teller said, ‘Well, obviously you can’t give us a thumbprint’,” Steve Valdez said.
But he said the Bank of America Corp branch in downtown Tampa, Florida, still insisted on a thumbprint identification for him to cash a cheque drawn on his wife’s account at the bank, even though he showed them two photo IDs.
In the incident, a bank supervisor told Valdez he could only cash the cheque without a thumbprint if he brought his wife in with him or he opened an account with them. “I told them I neither wanted account with them and couldn’t bring my wife in be-cause she was nowhere close by,” Valdez said. Bank of America said in a statement: “While the thumbprint is a requirement for those who don’t have accounts, the bank should have made accommodations.”

Perfect Storm
The fabled beauty of the Kremlin’s golden onion domes dusted with winter snow may be a thing of the past under a scheme by the Moscow mayor, to banish snow from the capital.
“Why don’t we keep this snow outside the Moscow city limits?” Mayor Yuri Luzhkov, who has a well-established track record of micro-managing Moscow’s weather, was quoted as saying. “For the countryside, this means more moisture and bigger harvests. And for us – less snow,” Luzhkov said, recalling that Moscow already relies on special cloud - seeding techniques to guarantee clear skies on key holidays.
Under Luzhkov’s proposal, the skies would be cleared whenever snow-laden clouds-a regular and natural feature of the Moscow winter cityscape - approached the sprawling Russian metropolis.
The mayor said preventing snowfall would offer advantages to city residents, including significant cost savings since operations to clear snow from streets cost three times more than stopping snowfall altogether.
Cloud-sweeping operations over Moscow however often produce heavy precipitation in outlying areas. Experts said the plan was fraught with unpredictable consequences.
