Jon and Kate Divorce Papers

Jon and Kate Divorce Docs -- Not for Your Eyes Every single aspect of Jon and Kate Gosselin's lives is on display for anyone with the two C's -- curiosity and cable -- but don't expect to feast your beady eyes on their divorce docs ... they're sealed. The docs, which were filed in Montgomery County, PA, are under lock and key -- safely hidden away from the media hype that has fueled the show's massive ratings.

We're told all the court clerks were personally called by the head of the department, and told under no circumstances are the papers to be released -- and if they were, it means BIG trouble. If you notice our screen grab from the court's website, the docs weren't scanned in for public viewing (circled). What we do know: Kate filed the papers and the filing cost her $282.50.

After months of rumors and speculation, Jon and Kate Gosselin, stars of the popular TLC reality television series “Jon and Kate Plus 8”, officially announced on Monday’s episode of the show that they are separating. According to CNN, Jon and Kate filed their divorce papers in Pennsylvania on Monday, ending their 10-year marriage. The announcement Jon and Kate made on Monday confirms rampant tabloid speculation that the couple’s marriage was in trouble. “I’m not very fond of the idea, personally, but I know it’s necessary because my goal is peace for the kids,” said Kate Gosselin during Monday’s episode of “Jon and Kate Plus 8”.

Al B. Sure

Al B. Sure! Honey I’m Home CD is the fourth studio album by the Grammy-nominated R&B singer-songwriter. See official tracklisting, video photos here. The highly anticipated new album was released on June 23, 2009 by Hidden Beach Recordings; it is his first new release since Sexy Versus in 1992. After a long hiatus, he has returned to the music world after a previous reign as a pioneer in late 1980s New Jack Swing. He is known for his signature hit, Nite and Day (from his 1988 platinum selling debut album In Effect Mode) which topped the Billboard R&B Singles Chart and was a Top. 10 Billboard 100 hit.

When an artist delivers an album after more than a decade on hiatus, fans listen closely for the music they fell in love with and cynics ten closely for a deafening flop. In the case of Al B. Sure, fans win out. Sure! is still the crooner he was when "Nite and Day" reached the Top 10 of the Billboard R&B and Pop charts in 1988, but on the slow-burning "I Love It! (Papi Aye, Aye, Aye)," drum machines and electric guitars have been replaced by pianos and violins. That' not to say, however, that Sure! has abandoned the R&B sound that made him and his New Jack Swing peers popular.

"Honey I'm Home" bears all the signs of 90s R&B nostalgia. The track "Dedicate My All" not only incorporates the sound of snapping fingers, but it boldly begins with a voiceover: "Can I talk to you? I think you need to hear what I've got to say. So please, listen."It's almost impossible for listeners to forget what era Sure! is coming from, and for the most part, it seems the singer doesn't mind reminiscing. He covers both Michael Jackson's "Lady in My Life" and Sting's "Fragile."Besides those two songs, Sure! takes writing and co-producing credits for every track on the album. The mid-tempo "Top of Your Lungs," featuring an exasperated Sure! singing to an argumentative lover, is one of the best in the batch of romantic, mellow grooves.

Clear airport security

The Clear airport security program has abruptly closed. No warning, and no information beyond a sparse statement on the Clear web site. An email to members also went out about an hour ago with the same short statement on the site.
Clear, or Fly Clear as it was sometimes known, allowed people to bypass regular security at some airports for an annual fee. I’ve been a regular user since it started.

In fact, I was probably one of the program’s most successful affiliates. I’d written about it from an early point, and so many people used my code to get an extra month (and giving me one in the process) that my card was good through 2064. Poof. Now all that credit is apparently gone. And so is any time left on cards for people who bought the 2, 3, 5 or 10 year options that Clear recently promoted. From my post about that (Fly Clear Airport Security Pass Prices Go Up, But New Ways To Save Offered), I’d warned last November:

The main issue to me about a 3 year or longer period is that Clear itself isn’t guaranteed to exist that long. So far, they seem to be expanding and doing well. They probably will be around for 3-5 years. But in 10 years, who knows how airport security is going to change — and $1,190 is a lot to gamble on that. It’s amazing — rather appalling really — that nothing remains up on the site for those who were members of the program. How much time did you have left on your card? Will you get any refund (given the credit problems, I doubt it).
