after a 200-pound alligator grabbed the pet and
attempted to drag it under water.

Robbins said.

walking around.

charges against them dropped.

A Texas woman has sued ABC's popular reality show
"Extreme Makeover" for more than $1 million claiming
among other things that an abrupt cancellation of her
appearance on the program led to her sister's death.

The suit starts with the blunt description: "Deleese
Williams is considered ugly" says one doctor who
promised her "a Hollywood smile like Cindy Crawford."

The producers sent a crew to Texas in January 2004 to
interview Williams and her family.

The "Extreme Makeover" crew manipulated Williams'
sister, Kellie, into making cruel statements about
Williams' looks.

The night before Williams was to begin her makeover,
the show's producers told her it would take too long
for work on her jaw to heal. They canceled her
appearance and sent Williams home where Kellie,
distraught over what she had said about her sister,
eventually killed herself.

Groping charges against Christian Slater will be

six months, under a plea agreement reached with

The controversial death of Rolling Stones' founder
member Bryan Jones is the subject of a film that
claims that he was murdered.

"I am convinced. I don't think it was alcohol or
drugs," the director of the film "Stoned," the fruit
of an 11-year cinematographic investigation into
Jones' apparent drowning in his pool in 1969.

According to official investigations into his demise,
Jones died from drowning brought on by consumption of
drink and drugs but Woolley believes differently after
having "contracted private detectives to meet people
who were there that night."

He leans toward myriad claims that Jones was killed by
Frank Thorogood, a builders' supervisor who was
working on the musician's home at the time of his
death and who reportedly confessed to the crime on his
deathbed 25 years later.

The director never spoke with the remaining Stones'
members in making the film. He explains that he "took
care that there wasn't any contact. This a film about
Bryan Jones, not about the Rolling Stones."

Wolfgang Petersen's upcoming film, "Poseidon," is a
remake of the 1972 film of "The Poseidon Adventure."
Other than the major plot point of a boat in peril,
the new movie will be a completely different movie
with different characters.
