Mario Batali talks about being a Celebrity Chef and in the process shows us what a good television personality he really is. Batali gives celebrity view on celebrity "It's like this," Mario Batali said, sitting in his Eighth Street restaurant and talking about being famous. "I'm happy to sign autographs and do all of that, but there are times when I'm just trying to eat breakfast with my kids and the person I ask to wait for an autograph calls me an asshole. I'm not going to go off, though, like some celebrities, and punch a paparazzo or anything." But that's the beauty of New York, he said. "Even if 8 million people hate you, there's still 9 million people left, and a lot of them will still come to your restaurant." The Food Network alumnus - famous for his show "Molto Mario" - talked to GSP sophomores from professor Elayne Tobin's course, "Celebrity: A Cultural and Historical Exploration of Modern Fame." Th

What's My Logo?: Mario Batali Dishes On His Signature Shorts And Orange Crocs: "I Am A Fashion Disaster" Chef Mario Batali started a culinary empire in 1998 with his Greenwich Village restaurant Babbo. He is the chef/owner of six celebrated restaurants in New York City, author of numerous cookbooks, and host of the upcoming PBS gastro-tour Spain...On The Road Again, co-hosted with Gwyneth Paltrow. Most recently Batali launched Carnevino in Las Vegas, but no matter where he hangs his hat, he always wears his signature orange shoes and shorts (even in the dead of winter). Batali, who was recently refused entry to a fellow chef's hip downtown birthday party due to his casual duds, dished on his quirky style: You are almost as famous for your orange shoes and perennial shorts as for your acclaimed cuisine and restaurants. How did your look start? 10 years ago my wife gave me the shoes and the kids wear orange all of the time because it's such a happy color. The first

The Hollow Earth: The Greatest Geographical Discovery in History Made by Admiral Richard E. Byrd in the Mysterious Land Beyond the Poles - The True Origin of the Flying Saucers   Widely read and reprinted many times, Raymond Bernard’s book is considered by many to be the definitive treatise on the "Hollow Earth" theory. The book purports that the Earth has a hollow and habitable interior, with a small sun in place of a molten core, and is inhabited by a race of “Superhumans” who are the descendants of the exiled residents of the long lost continents of Atlantis and Lemuria. Bernard claimed that the true North and South poles had not yet been discovered, and that in their place are concave openings to the inner Earth. Bernard quotes several diary entries and radio announcements by polar explorer Admiral Richard E. Byrd as being definitive proof for his theory that travel to the Earth’s interior was possible. Bernard claims that Byrd’s 1947 and 1956 expeditions took him “bey

  In case you are wondering why there is so much " Fake News " coming out of the Mainstream Media over the last few years: The (2012) National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) legalized the use of propaganda on the US public. On January 2, 2013 Barack Obama signed and enacted into “law” HR 4310 , also known as Smith-Mundt Modernization Act of 2012, which was part of the 2013 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) . A large majority of concerned Americans were focused on the  indefinite detention of US Citizens without trial clause contained in the NDAA , and missed HR 4310 which received little to no attention.

The amendment — proposed by Mac Thornberry (R-Texas) and Adam Smith (D-Wash.) and passe

The Time Bill Clinton Threatened Peter Jennings "You Don't Want To Go There Peter!"

  An extremely pissed and paranoid-sounding Bill Clinton threatened ABC News anchorman Peter Jennings in this interview from November 2004 Bill Clinton sat down with ABC News anchor Peter Jennings in November 2004, almost four years after leaving the office. When Peter Jennings asked him about his low ranking by a group of Presidential historians for his “moral leadership,” Bill Clinton seethed in his response. Clinton could barely contain himself when Jennings told him he cared about the low rating more than he was willing to admit. He seemed to be threatening Jennings as he responded “You don’t want to go here, Peter. You don’t want to go here. Not after what you people did. And the way you – your network – what you did with Kenneth Starr. The way your people repeated every little sleazy thing he leaked. No one has any idea of what that’s like.” One thing to ponder for conspiracy theorists. Peter Jennings announced that he was suffering from lung cancer on April 5th, 2005 . This inte
