This week "Surivor: Gabon" was a clip show, and the only new thing we learned about Sugar was that prior to the show, she had a septum nose ring. Thrilling. So let's move on to "Top Chef," and Jamie Lauren, a chef at Absinthe in San Francisco. Quickfire Challenge! With guest judge Grant Achatz. The challenge was to put "their own spin" on a recipe assigned to them from the Top Chef cook book. La......

Previously on "Survivor: Gabon," Sugar shocked them all. Post-Tribal Council, and the newly merged "Nobag" tribe ("Nobag"? Really??) was shaky. Corinne realized she was doomed. She and Randy bonded over their hate of everyone alive. Bob told Sugar he didn't find the Hidden Immunity Idol, but showed her the fake one he made, which was really quite impressive. He didn't seem to think for a moment that Sugar actually had the real one. Reward Challenge!......

Previously on "America's Next Top Model," Marjorie delighted the Dutch locals with her charming lack of direction and poise. This week Marjorie tried to convince herself that she'd try to calm the hell down and not let her nerves get to her, although she was also under the impression that her nerves made her interesting. Challenge! Paulina tries to teach them how to sell things without words, like pretending that herring smells terrific, or toilet......

Previously on "America's Next Top Model" Marjorie's humpback look trumped Sheena's hooch. Ah, yes. The go-see episode! Since the models are in Amsterdam, they would, of course, have to go on their go-sees via boat, and they weren't speedboats. Marjorie was nervous, and lost, and most of the people she asked for help with directions totally ignored her, which, can you blame them? A hunchbacked bundle of nerves asks you in a foreign language to......

Previously on "Your Locals": Pure drivel. This week on "America's Next Top Model" this girls flew to AmsterDAAAAAAM, which is in Europe, which means Marjorie and Elina's patented brand of European moodiness would fit right in, right? Once in Amsterdam, the models had to find their new house on their own, in teams of two, "Amazing Race"-style. Marjorie's being European did her no favors as she didn't seem to realize America dollars don't do much......

Previously on "America's Next Top Model": Clip show. Feh. Omigod, the show begins with Elina talking about how she doesn't show emotion because she's from Europe, and unless you're from Europe, you just wouldn't understand. So this show has taught us that Europeans are a bunch of socially awkward misfits who are afraid to cry. Who knew? Of course, Marjorie totally understands, and when confronted by Samantha with the fact that, like, didn't they move......

"America's Next Top Model" was clip show last week, and we didn't really learn anything about Marjorie that we didn't already know, like how she's awkward. And French. And is in love with Analeigh. So let's move on to... "Survivor: Gabon." Previously, Sugar was sent to Exile Island and chilled in her Sugar walls. Once she returned post-Tribal Council, she was pleased to see Ace was in her new Fang--Carl LaFong--tribe. Chrystal, meanwhile, was sure......

Previously on "America's Next Top Model" Marjorie posed as the Headless Horseman. So it should come as no surprise that she was all doom and gloom at the beginning of this week's episode, lamenting the fact that she has no "positive mantra," unlike her chipper housemates, including Analeigh. Marjorie acknowledged that she is a bundle of nerves, and it isn't helping in the competition. Challenge! Paulina taught the girls that during catalog shoots, it is......

Oh no. Here it comes again: Ben & Jerry's Free Cone Day. For those of you who eat, tomorrow B&J is celebrating their 30th birthday by handing out free cones of ice cream. (We hear their new flavor Cake Batter is downright spectacular, by the way.) Here are a few stores where you can grab some sweet, icy lovin' for nothing: Ben & Jerry's Argonaut 475 Jefferson Street San Francisco, CA 94109 415-263-7233 Ben......
