Then this is the holiday destination for you! The island of St. Maartin in the Caribbean is home to the Princess Juliana International Airport. Famous for its short landing strip (only 2,130 metres/7,000 ft), these shocking pictures reveal just how low the planes hover over the beach. There is barely enough room for heavy jets, so the planes approach the island flying extremely low, right over the amazed public!
More pics after the jump

A lot of people are freaking out about this Alec Baldwin
phone call to his daughter Ireland due to the severity of the language but we only have one side of the story here. We have no idea how many times Baldwin has tried to call his daughter. We have no idea how much or if Basinger is meddling with his visitation and custody (probably)? And we really don't know what is going on behind the scenes of their custody battle.
Now ask yourself, why and how this tape was made available to the public? Alec Baldwin certainly didn't release this. Imagine if every conversation you had with your kids or parents was taped and then held against you? I think the majority of us would be screwed.
At least he cares about his daughter's behavior and conduct. How many celebrity parents look the other way while their kids dabble in drugs, wreck cars, bang half of Hollywood and hit the bars underage? So many that it has become normal for the children of Hollywood to be in some sort of trouble.
I in no way condone calling a child a "rude, thoughtless little pig" (although kids sometimes are) but we see way worse parenting behavior on
Nanny 911 and in the trailer parks of Alabama.*

Attention Los Angeles,
Principal Rooney actor Jeffrey Jones, has been spotted in your neighborhood. The former actor best known for his role in "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" has certainly packed on the pounds so you just might miss him.
Why is he of interest? Well, Jones pleaded no contest in 2003 to paying a 14-year-old boy to pose in explicit photos and was arrested in 2004 after he failed to notify authorities that he had moved with accordance to guidelines set by Megan's Law (we like to keep track of our sex-offenders).
What's that you say? You didn't know he was a sex-offender? Think about it the next time you watch that final scene of "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" where Rooney is on the school bus and the girl offers him some candy.

A New York judge has ruled that rapper 50 Cent must pay his ex-girlfriend and baby-momma Shaniqua Tompkins $180,000 a year (thats $15K a month for you math geniuses out there) in child support for their 10-year-old son Marquise Diamond Jackson.
50 is a scumbag for not paying to support his kid all this time but $15k a month? That is a lot of pocket change for a 10-year-old; how much of this is going to end up in the cash registers of a hair and nail salon and spread along 5th Avenue?

Rachel Ray looks like shes eating more than $40 a day at her appearance for the 25th Anniversary of Practical Magic Ball to benefit City Harvest, New York City's food rescue organization.
I'm surprised she can shovel that much food through one side of her mouth.
Leave your "City Harvest needs to rescue NYC from her" jokes in the comments.
