The Baltimore Book Festival kicks off today with three full days of readings, music and more. Here are my top picks.

Gathering at Mount Vernon Square continues through weekend

The 18th annual festival features a new comic book pavilion and exhibitions on the art of book-making

The Food for Thought stage at this weekend's Baltimore Book Festival will present a full slate of talks and demonstrations by Baltimore-based chefs and visiting cookbook authors

"I'm 27. I'm retired. But I still want to compete." That's Olympic champion Michael Phelps talking in "The Haney Project," a Golf Channel series that stars Tiger Woods' one-time coach taking on a new celebrity student each season. Phelps' words pretty much summarize the premise of this year's edition, which starts Monday night.

The joint appearance by President Obama and Hillary Clinton on ¿60 Minutes¿ wasn¿t about the Democratic nomination in 2016, as some analysts have insisted this weekend.

Bruno cracks me up by pointing at the dance floor during Bristol's routine and simply saying, "Mess." Sometimes one word is all you need.

Baltimore's famous Henn quadruplets, photographed weeks before they left St. Agnes Hospital in October 1947, were already veterans of the international media spotlight.

The Baltimore-made production generating big pre-air buzz

As we wheel into a big week TV and politics with the first GOP debate to include Texas Gov. Rick Perry on Wednesday and President Obama's long overdue jobs plan on Thursday, a couple of small observations demand to be made.

The addition of HLN host Nancy Grace to the lineup of ABC's 2011 "Dancing with the Stars" is such an exquisite example of how calculating and exploitative prime-time network TV can be. This year's cast also includes Chaz Bono, David Arquette and Rob Kardashian.

Leonard Pitts says Russell Armstrong's suicide exposes the sickness of turning people's problems into mass entertainment

I thought Kate Gosselin was history -- a cancelled has-been relegated to the junk heap of reality TV "stars" -- used, abused, exploited and trashed out by the TV industry.

With rumors circulating that legendary quarterback Brett Favre is joining "Dancing with the Stars," the sports blogosphere is close to imploding on itself (and I'm now contributing to it, too). If the rumors are true, Favre will follow in the dance steps of retired greats such as Emmitt Smith, Kurt Warner and Jerry Rice when the 12th season of the ABC hit show debuts March 21.
