Discovery Communications Inc. has issued a statement on an earlier incident involving  James Jay Lee taking employees hostage before releasing them and being killed by police. Lee was upset with the network’s programming, saying that while it claimed to promote environment issues, shows displayed exactly the opposite.

“First and foremost, Discovery Communications wants to express how relieved and grateful we are that all employees and the children from the Discovery Kids Place daycare center are safe. Employees in Silver Spring demonstrated courage, compassion and cooperation throughout the situation, which aided law enforcement efforts — for which we are thankful and proud.”

Michael Bay, producer of Transformers, is reported to have offered $50,000 for information leading to the arrest of a young woman who was videotaped throwing live puppies into a river.

The video has been spreading like a virus since it was discovered, as well as contempt for the woman.

A statement was placed on Bay’s official website, but was since taken down. However, screen shots of the statement are still available.

“Michael Bay has informed me that he is offering a $50,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and successful prosecution of the woman in the red sweatshirt and the person who shot this act of cruelty,” the statement, written by Bay’s webmaster, reads.

According to The First Post, the suspected woman, who’s name was reported as Katja Puschnik, loaded a video containing an apology.

Roger Ebert is proving no disability will stop his passion for critique and advice. Although complications from oral cancer robbed him of the ability to speak, he’s turned this hardship into a motivator. After writing a cookbook on rice cookers, The Pot and How To Use It, Ebert continues to guide people’s decisions in the kitchen through a recent New York Times column where he answers questions readers have left for him about cooking and life in general.

One reader was looking to replace boxed Zatarain’s beans and rice with a slow cooked, homemade version, but was unsure of what goes best in The Pot.

“I love a rice cooker meal of Zatarain’s rice with vermicelli, black beans and frozen vegetables (and turmeric)! I have unsuccessfully tried to duplicate the texture of the rice mix with rice and broken vermicelli. I am wondering if you have experimented with this. I am considering using orzo.Thanks Roger!”

Ebert’s recommended a mix of legumes, grains and seeds called Soo Foo.

To keep up with the Kardashians, you’re going to have to stop wearing fur.

Sisters Kim, Kourtney, Khloe and mom Kris Jenner have partnered with Ginny Hilfiger to create K-Dash by Kardashian, a line of clothing featuring belts, handbags, faux fur trimmed vests and more.

K-Dash by Kardashian is set to debut on QVC as part of Fashion’s Night Out, live from New York’s Rockefeller Center on Friday, September 10th 9PM EST.

K-Dash isn’t expensive, with prices ranging from $20-$240. Cheaper, ethical fashions are always a plus, and with the Truth in Fur Labeling Act making its way through Congress, we hope to one day be able to purchase anything faux off the rack with confidence no animal has died for it.

Michael Bolton may be filling on up whole wheat pasta and wheatballs in preparation for each performance on Dancing with the Stars.

The singer who released the album “One World One Love” earlier this year is one of the competitors on the reality TV dancing show.

“Had a really good breakfast this morning. And a vegan beet muffin. Lots of interesting food here in Nashville lol.”

–David Archuleta, Tweeting the latest good grub from Nashville, TN. Sure would love to know where he got the beet pastries, but whether you live in Nashville or not, you can try beet muffins in your own kitchen with this simple recipe. For that extra Idol wow factor, jazz things up a bit with apples and cranberries in the mix.

You know you’re good veggie burger when you land on the Denny’s menu.
