There are many religious, moral or personal reasons why a person would choose to abstain from sex for a certain period. Whether that period lasts for a night, a year, until marriage, a lifetime or somewhere in between depends upon the person. 

Think like a Man actress Meagan good is only the latest in a string of celebrities who have claimed they were celibate at one time or another.

Are these celebrities on to something? Have they discovered that even in a nation (and industry) notoriously obsessed with sex, that the best Kama Sutra position may be “legs closed”? Did they realize that the most intimate relationship of all can be had without this most intimate act? is celibate the new sex?

I’m not certain, but one thing is for sure: There are definitely some surprises on this list!

President Obama's two-day tour of Los Angeles was a star-studded affair with celebrities, including Cher and Reese Witherspoon, attending fundraising events.

Obama's trip began with a LGBT Leadership Council gala at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel, emceed by comedian Ellen DeGeneres. "Glee" heartthrob Darren Criss provided entertainment after singer Pink withdrew because of illness. The 600-person gathering was a who's who of gay Hollywood and included many of the creative minds whose portrayals of gays on screens large and small has nudged society toward accepting gay rights. Max Mutchnick, creator of "will and Grace," was a co-host. Dustin Lance Black, Oscar-winning screenwriter of "Milk," was in the audience, as were Cher and her son, Chaz Bono. The president opened with a comment about DeGeneres and his wife, who recently beat the comedian in a push-up contest on her talk show. He said DeGeneres had complained “that Michelle didn’t go all the way down.”

The audience interpreted it as off-color and began to chuckle, then erupted in bawdy laughter. Obama kept a straight face.

"That's what I heard," he said. "I just want to set the record straight. Michelle outdoes me in push-ups, as well. you shouldn't feel bad."

After a 30-minute speech outlining his administration's gay-friendly accomplishments, the president left for a dinner fundraiser at the Beverly Hills home of "Glee" creator Ryan Murphy and his fiance, David Miller.

Airtime, the social video chat startup created by Napster founders Sean Parker and Shawn Fanning, unveiled itself today after a long period of poorly-kept secrets and barely-muted hype.

Think of it as a less-icky Chatroulette with a $33 million wind at its back. and today, we finally got to see it in action.

Parker calls Airtime the “best and fastest way to video chat with your friends on any platform.” It’s web-based, so you don’t have to download a separate applications; frictionless, since you can get started immediately without much setup; and perhaps most importantly, it relies on Facebook’s social graph, so it’s connected to identities people are already using online.

At Milk Studios in New York City’s Chelsea neighborhood this morning, Airtime gathered press and notable NYC personalities to officially unveil Airtime.

Late night star Jimmy Fallon first hit the stage to introduce Parker and Fanning, calling them the “Jean-Claude Van Damme and Dolph Lundgren of the Internet.” (If you don’t get that reference, watch some 80′s action movies, kids.) Parker told the tale of how they first met online in a chat room and bonded over their interest in hacking and computers.

“We understood the potential,” Fanning said when Fallon asked if they realized how important Napster was at the beginning. but he went on to say that the pair were mostly just having fun by developing the music sharing service.

What the heck is Airtime?

“We’re actually building a network service,” Parker said as he began a presentation explaining Airtime. “This is different from a consumer hardware product or a consumer software product… We’re actually opening up to the world and beginning the process of constructing that network.”

Parker went on to say that despite the massive rise in social media popularity, he can’t help but feel we’ve taken a step back. many online services have us spending more time processing information than interacting with information, he said.

With rise of both broadband and webcams, Parker says now is the perfect time to pursue true social video chat.

He railed against social games from companies like Zynga that aren’t exactly real-time, but are instead all about taking turns. “There’s all kinds of things people could be doing if there was a platform for synchronous interactions,” Parker said. This seems to be the crux of what Airtime is all about.

Security is a big part of Airtime’s core principles (Parker listed it four times on his slide for emphasis). the service avoids the problems of Chatroulette (inappropriate behavior, indecent exposure) since it’s tied to your Facebook identity. if you’re a bad actor, Airtime can easily kick you off the service. the company also has people monitoring the service for bad behavior.

As for utility, Parker stresses that Airtime is all about making new friends.

“Facebook isn’t helping you make new connections, Facebook doesn’t build new relationships,” he said. “Facebook is just trying to be the most accurate model of your real life social graph.”

When your demo fails, call the celebrities

To demonstrate how Airtime works, Parker called actress Olivia Munn using the service. the call connected quickly, but it may have helped that she was just sitting backstage. Airtime’s interface is fairly simple: your video video is on the left side, the person you’re calling is in the center, and your list of friends is on the right. when the call first connected, Airtime displayed a few related interests (which slowly faded away) and then Parker seamlessly shared a few web videos with her.

Munn came on stage and tried to surprise the audience by calling rapper Snoop Dogg. her first few tries failed (I think because she was trying to call a Facebook user pretending to be Snoop Dogg), but eventually Snoop himself called. Munn showed off her Snoop impressions, the crowd politely laughed, and we moved on.

Munn then called comedian and actor Joel McHale, who ended up coming onstage instead of chatting over Airtime. Unfortunately, his appearance set off a string of technical errors that halted the demo for several minutes.

“Sean Parker is literally a genius and I love it that he has to pull wires out of the back of the computer to make it work,” McHale quipped as several event staff members tried to get the demo going again. once things started working, he called actress Julia Louis-Dreyfus, who then came on stage to ring up fellow actor and comedian Ed Helms. (We get it Sean Parker, you have many very important friends.)

Helms called singer Alicia Keys over Airtime, and they were able to successfully chat for several minutes. (Unlike most of the other celebrities, she wasn’t hiding behind the stage.) Helms then tried to call Parker’s Airtime offices, but unfortunately nobody picked up. Eventually, a disheveled Jim Carrey wearing a gas mask successfully called Helms.

“So where do I click to download music… to destroy the music industry,” Carrey quipped while chatting with Parker.

Throughout all of the demos, there were occasional connection and network issues. It’s hard to blame Airtime for all of the trouble, since relying on venue Wi-Fi for demos is often a disaster.

Wrapping Up

Parker capped off the demo with an obligatory video featuring a catchy indie song, which shows the potential for Airtime much better than the on-stage demos.

In the end, it was probably a good thing Parker had a bunch of comedic geniuses to help distract from the buggy demos.

“I can’t actually thank you guys enough,” Parker said to his celebrity crew, the Huffington Post reported, “because you took a completely fucked-up situation where everything was going to shit and actually salvaged it.”

Despite the trouble with the service today, it’s clear to me that Airtime has a lot of potential. perhaps it’s because there’s a big idea driving Airtime: Technology is here to help us, not to flood us with information. Airtime is the logical evolution of social media technology — it’s something that actually brings us closer together, even with complete strangers thousands of miles away.

While we kinda struggled to find truly heinous celeb attire last week, we had absolutely no trouble whatsoever this time around. In fact, we discovered more than the usual amount. Seven atrocious ensembs! (Well, that’s mainly because the Olsen twins were in the same pic.) So between Whitney Port‘s, uhh, unique pants and Gwen Stefani‘s WTF outfit, here are the worst dressed…

Natasha BedingfieldWhile we appreciate the pops of color, this two-piece seems slightly inappropriate for a benefit.Wacky fashion two weeks in a row? not a good thing, Nat.

Whitney PortWhoa, somebody took the printed pants trend a bit too far.Florals and animal graphics get our approval. not entire landscapes.

Mary-Kate and Ashley OlsenUsually when celebs come back from being off the grid, they’re at least stylish…That’s obviously not the case here.

Gwen StefaniMaybe she was just trying to go all incognito while shopping for groceries?If that’s the case, Gwen def had us fooled. we almost mistook her for a bag lady!

Nicole RichieFringe. Leather. Cowboy pants. We’ll say it again, fringe. Leather. Cowboy pants.is anyone else seeing the problem here?

SnookiA cheetah-print bag, a leopard-print hair wrap, and lacy jeans.that is all.

Whose outfit had you screaming “OMG” — and not in a good way? do you actually like any of them?

LONDON, May 21, 2012 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ –Public urged to give blood ahead of major events this summer to boost blood stocks for 2012

Eight celebrities, each representing one of the major blood groups, are supporting NHS Blood and Transplant’s campaign to increase blood stocks this summer.

http://www.multivu.com/mnr/53825-teamgiveblood-garylineker-jaynetorvill-olympics

Gary Lineker, Sarah Beeny, Jayne Torvill, Graham Bell, Greg James, Rachel Riley, Twin B and Saira Khan will help to boost blood stocks by 30%, above usual levels, ahead of the Olympic Games and encourage donors to support their country by contributing to blood supplies.

the Team Give Blood ‘captains’, will encourage people of a specific blood type to donate before major national events, including the Jubilee and Olympics as well as the football European Championships. the celebrities will be using their own social media profiles to encourage the public to be a part of ‘Team Give Blood’ by donating, as well as appearing in promotional materials and mailers.

Jon Latham, spokesperson for NHS Blood and Transplant (NHSBT), said: “This year we need donors more than ever before because major public events can disrupt regular donations and we have extra visitors to the UK to prepare ahead for. we know our regular donors feel a strong sense of team spirit and positivity about their contribution to the health of the nation, so this campaign will help capture the national spirit of 2012 and ensure we are well prepared for the summer’s festivities.”

the celebrities will be championing the following blood groups:

Gary Lineker, ex footballer and presenter – captain of Team O-, the universal blood type, which can be given to people of any blood type and is therefore often used in emergency situations. Just 7% of the population have O- blood.

Greg James, radio presenter – as captain of Team O+, Greg will be appealing to 37% of the population with this blood type. this is the most common blood type in the UK.

Saira Khan, presenter and entrepreneur – captain of Team A-. One of the rarer blood types, just 7% of people has A- blood and it is more common in the Asian and African-Caribbean population.

Rachel Riley, TV presenter – captain of Team A+. 35% of the population in England and North Wales are A+, making it one of the most common blood types and also one of the most used.

Twin B, DJ and radio presenter – the radio DJ is captain of Team B- not only because it’s his favourite letter, but because just 2% of the population have this blood type. As with A-, it is more common in the Asian and African-Caribbean population.

Sarah Beeny, presenter and entrepreneur – captain of Team B+, Sarah will be appealing to people with this blood type who are eligible to come forward and make a date to donate. Although just 8% of the population are B+, globally this figure is 20%, meaning higher levels will be needed in preparation for the increased visitors expected this summer.

Jayne Torvill, Olympic gold medallist – captain of TeamAB-, which is the rarest blood type in the UK, with just 1% of the population having this blood type.

Graham Bell, former Olympian and TV presenter – captain of TeamAB+. Just 3% of the population have this blood type, though globally this figure is 5%.

Past experience[1] shows that even regular donors miss appointments during national events and celebrations as people become distracted and routines are disrupted. this, combined with the high numbers of international visitors expected this year with a different native blood mix to our own, may also put high demand on specific blood groups.

Blood is used to help treat health conditions including cancer and long term illnesses, trauma incidents and maternity care. Hospitals across England and North Wales need 7,000 units of blood every day and each unit saves or improves the lives of three patients.

If you are eligible to donate or are thinking of donating for the first time please go to blood.co.uk or ring us on 0300 123 23 23 and make an appointment now.

Notes to editors:

NHS Blood and Transplant (NHSBT) is a joint England and Wales Special Health Authority. Its remit includes the provision of a reliable, efficient supply of blood and associated services to the NHS in England and North Wales. It is also the organ donor organisation for the UK and is responsible for matching and allocating donated organs

NHSBT collects approximately two million units of blood each year from 1.4 million blood donors

the NHS needs 7,000 voluntary donations of blood daily across England and North Wales

Around 4% of the eligible population are active blood donors

a unit of blood is measured as 470mls (or just under a pint)

Female whole blood donors can give blood every 16 weeks, while male blood donors must wait 12 weeks between donations.

There are four main blood groups – O, a, B and AB. Group O is the most common and therefore the most in demand. over 95% of the blood collected is processed into its main components – red cells, platelets and plasma. a regular supply of blood is vital as red cells last only 35 days and platelets only seven days.

Negative blood types are rarer among our indigenous population, which places more need on people of these blood types to donate.

Compared with global blood types, however, the UK has a lower than average percentage of types B+ (8% UK vs. 20% global) and AB+ (3% UK vs. 5% global) creating a potential greater need for these blood types

[1] Blood stocks fell by 20% for example during the 2006 World Cup due to disrupted supply
