President Obama makes history today by becoming the first sitting president to appear on a daytime talk show.

Obama will be the only guest on "The View." Barbara Walters is interrupting her recuperation from heart surgery to return to the show for one day so she can join Whoopi Goldberg and the others in asking questions.

We'll see what issues Republican Elisabeth Hasselbeck brings up. She's always good for a controversial comment!


The Kentucky State Fair is almost here and I was wondering what your favorite food was? And whatever your answer is, is it on a stick?

When it comes to midway snacking --they say stick it!

There seems no end to the variety of food on a stick folks can find at the Wisconsin State Fair.

Fancy a chili cheese dog on a stick? How about some deep-fried apple pie on a stick? There's cream cheese with bacon. And deep-fried ravioli. Last year's favorite is returning: chocolate-covered bacon.

Fair organizers say there are almost 70 food-on-a-stick options this year.

I wonder if we can expect these new additions? We'll see. The Kentucky State Fair runs from August 19-29.

Sarah Bickerstaff has a dream -- a dog park dream.

The Omaha, Nebraska, woman is one of 10 finalists in Beneful's WagWorld Dream Dog Park contest. She sent a video of her dog, Sadie, to the dog food company.

Sadie and Bickerstaff have already won a year's supply of food. If Bickerstaff is the grand prize winner, she could get a-half million bucks to overhaul the Omaha Dog Park.

Bickerstaff's ideas include a walking path, more shade trees and some water so Sadie and her doggie pals can splash around a bit.

The winning dog video will be decided by online voting, through August 11. The winner will be announced in September.

A Louisville high school student will be traveling to Utah next month to represent the United States in a worldwide computer competition. This is HUGE!

Eastern High School's Jason Bays, who will be a sophomore, received the highest score in the country earlier this year on the Microsoft Office Specialist Excel 2003 Exam.

A news release from the Jefferson County Public Schools says Bays will go on to Utah for the August 8-10 competition, in which he will be tested on his ability to create, analyze, and format data in Excel.

Best of Luck!


He used to be the favorite American sports star.

But it's funny how a single-car accident and loads of mistresses can change that kind of thing around for a guy.

Tiger Woods has dropped into a tie on a list of the favorite American sports stars.

If there's any consolation for Woods - it's that the person he's tied with is Kobe Bryant - someone who had a similar fall from public grace when he was accused of rape in 2003.

Bryant moves up from fourth last year to grab a share of the top spot with Woods on the list, put together by Harris Interactive.

Another indication of how fickle such lists can be - LeBron James dropped from third to sixth on the list - while retired NBA star Michael Jordan fell from second to seventh.

Among female athletes, sisters Serena and Venus Williams are numbers one and two - followed by race car driver Danica Patrick and retired soccer star Mia Hamm.

Squirrels that water ski. People falling off tables. Babies doing all kinds of stuff. Even Lady Gaga. Justin Bieber has something on all of them.

The teen singer has the mark for the most watched video ever on YouTube.

More than 246 million have watched Bieber's video on the site.

The most-watched clip on YouTube that isn't a music video is the "Charlie bit my finger" video - seen by more than 210 million.

Crystal Bowersox has a big new smile.

She's posted a photo of herself on her Twitter page with no missing teeth and no gaps between her teeth. She got the work done just before the American Idol tour began.

Bowersox says her teeth are something she's "been self-conscious about" her whole life. She says she's "never had a perfect smile."

The fans have had their say. Teams trying to woo him to join them, have had their say. Celebrities have had their say. And even the president has. Now, it's time for LeBron James to have his say.

And by time the day is over, we will know where he will next play in the NBA. The most prized NBA free-agent ever is to announce this evening where he will play next season.

Several teams are in the running, including the Chicago Bulls, New York Knicks, New Jersey Nets, Los Angeles Clippers and the team James played with last season, the Cleveland Cavaliers.

The announcement will be made tonight in a special one-hour broadcast on ESPN.

And don't worry about having to sit through an hour of chitchat to find out the decision. Network officials say James will reveal his choice about 10 minutes into the broadcast.

Jeff''s sources say it's Miami! We'll see if he's right tomorrow.


Facebook has a new friend -- divorce lawyers.

When it comes time to find damaging evidence, the lawyers say social networking sites are often among the best places to look.

The American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers says 81 percent of its members have been involved with cases using social networking evidence.

Facebook is by far the biggest source -- with users often posting pictures of themselves and the other man or woman. There also sexually suggestive pictures, or snapshots involving the use drugs or booze.

Attorney Linda Lea Viken has this advice for her clients. She says never post anything on your Facebook page you wouldn't want a judge to see.
