We've made it to the finale already; it seems like the season has gone quickly, but then again, if I have to hear Lisa say "I know what I have to do to win, but it goes against everything I believe in ... " I may stab myself in the ear with an ice pick. Unsurprisingly, she is my last choice to win. My order of preference is Malcolm, Denise, Mike, and then Lisa. And really, Malcolm and Denise are interchangeable. First off, we recap the entire season of 'Survivor Philippines,' but since I've already done that, I'm not going to do it again.

Back from Tribal Council, it's now clear to Abi that Mike, Lisa, Malcolm, and Denise are in an alliance, most likely because Jonathan flat out said so at the last Tribal Council. She's also a really bad liar, because she can't stop talking about the Idol that she doesn't actually have in a really goofy voice. And now Lisa is realizing that she probably won't win against either Malcolm or Denise in the final three, and is regretting allying herself with them, since it goes against her values to betray once she's given her word.

After complaints from several people, Cafe Hon removed a picture early Thursday morning of one of its staff members in blackface for Halloween. The Hampden restaurant had posted the photo on its Facebook page. It showed an employee, in blackface, apparently dressed for Halloween as Whitney Houston, singing with a smudge of white powder around the nose. "We humbly apologize for our misjudgement in posting a Halloween picture, we have removed the picture," Cafe Hon said on Facebook early Thursday.

Previously on Survivor: Matsing sucked, and it rained a whole lot. Coming back from Tribal Council, Denise and Malcolm are worried, tired and cold. They don't know if they will be split up, or if they will mix up all the tribes. On the upside, they (finally) find the Immunity Idol. It seems to raise their spirits a bit. At the Challenge, Mike seems surprised that Russell was voted out. Really? I'm surprised he lasted as long as he did.   And as Malcolm and Denise feared, Matsing is no more, and they are being split up. Malcolm is going to Tangdang, and Denise is going to Kalabaw.

Though neither is known for joking around, beleagured restaraunteur Denise Whiting and former Lt. Gov. Michael Steele will be among those competing for the title of Baltimore's Funniest Celebrity. The Cafe Hon owner and the former face of the Republican party will vie for the title against musician Deanna Bogart, one-time city council candidate De'von Brown,  meteorologist Steve Fertig, news anchor Jeff Barnd and Baltimore Sun sports columnist Peter Schmuck.  If most of those folks don't strike you as particularly funny, that's exactly the point, says Richard Siegel, the founder of the event, which will happen for the second time in Baltimore on June 27. The contest has been running for 18 years in D.C. "I think people that are serious are funny because people don't expect it -- which is funny," says Siegel, a long-time stand-up comedy performer.

After almost a year of simmering controversy, Cafe Hon owner Denise Whiting said Monday that she will relinquish her "Hon" trademark. "I'll take it off the register," she said. "It was never mine to have in the first place. " Her trademark announcement, which she made on a morning radio program with reality TV chef Gordon Ramsay, was wrapped in an apology. "I am sorry for the animosity and the hatred and everything that trademarking a word has done," Whiting said. "Trademarking the word has not only almost killed me but has just about killed the business.

The Alzheimer's Association presented Denise Kirksey, director of Life Enrichment for Morningside House of Laurel, with the Inspiring Caregiver of the Year award. She was nominated for the award by a resident's daughter for her "ongoing support, tremendous heart and caregiving of the residents. "

The brouhaha surrounding the trademarking of the word "hon" seemed to become more serious Monday as Denise Whiting was granted a restraining order against a man who organized recent protests against her. Judge Joan Bossman Gordan issued the so-called peace order on Monday on Whiting's behalf, barring Steven Akers, a 25-year-old student from Severn, from any of Whiting's Hampden businesses and from contacting her or harassing her. Gordan extended...
