retreat.

something
most Project Runway designers don't -- a second chance.
As part of a new twist
introduced this season -- dubbed
"Runway Redemption" -- viewers got
to vote which of thee
former competitors would return.
Pankoke, a 24-year-old
from Chicago who originally was
on season 11, beat
out
season eight's Valerie Mayen and season six's
Lawrence Coleman for the honor,
as revealed in last
week's season 12 premiere.
During her original
season -- the show's first "teams"
edition -- Pankoke was sent home
during a
unconventional challenge that called for the
designers to create a
prom dress out of duct tape.
In a surprising double elimination, both Pankoke
and
her teammate Tu Suthiwat Nakchat were sent home.

From reports, a judge
in St. Louis County has denied a request
from Larry Conners that a "no-compete" clause be immediately
suspended so the former KMOV (Channel 4) anchorman could seek television work.
Merle Silverstein, Conner's attorney,
said St. Louis
County Circuit Judge Kristine Kerr denied the
temporary restraining order against the clause, and
ordered Conners and the
station to appear in court on
Sept. 3.
Last month, Conners
wrote on Facebook that he had
a potential television job in St. Louis, but said
he could
not pursue it because of the clause in his contract with
KMOV.Conners,
66, was fired May 21 after spending
37 years in St. Louis television — the
last 27 as an
anchor at KMOV.
The dismissal came
after a series of events that
began when Conners implied in a May 13 Facebook
post that he may have been targeted by the IRS
after interviewing
President Barack Obama in 2012. The IRS claims Conners and
his wife, Janet L.
Conners, owe more than
$85,000 from 2008, 2009 and 2010.
Conners also has a
pending allegation of age discrimination before the Equal Employment
Opportunity Commission.

Which STL based comedian is claiming another STL based comedian is
piggybacking on their comedy bookings for their shows?
HINT 1. Both are male
HINT 2. Both have weekly comedy nites in St Louis.
HINT 3. The comic claiming this shares teh same last name as a popular blues singer. The other
shares the same last name of a popular sports figure in St Louis.
WHO ARE THEY?
This week we feature STL based singer Aloha who changed up her glam look recently when she
performed at Cafe Soul at The Pageant. She sported long dookey braids, a black sports cap, army
fatigue jacket, a Janet tee, and spandex. If we had to give the look a name we, would say,
B-girl chic.
