Paula Deen’s Diabetes Announcement
Fans and experts are reacting to Paula Deen's revelation that she was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes in 2008.
For starters, fellow celebrity chef Anthony Bourdain took a shot at her on Twitter for disclosing her news only after she had a drug endorsement deal lined up, writing: "Thinking of getting into the leg-breaking business, so I can profitably sell crutches later."

Last night on HLN's Showbiz Tonight, Dancing With the Stars pro Louis Van Amstel said, "I have a good idea, activity is the best thing. If Paula Deen goes on Dancing with the Stars, I would love to have her as my partner and she is going to become an inspiration! How about it?!"
More: In defense of Deen
And, the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine in a recent report named her Paula Deen's Southern Cooking Bible as one of the five unhealthiest cookbooks of 2011. She is the only chef who has made it onto the list twice over the last three years, for high-fat recipes that raise the risk for obesity, heart disease and diabetes. And now the group has sent her a letter urging her to try a vegan diet for 21 days.

Italian cruise ship : Captain 'in difficult position'
The ship, carrying 4,200 passengers and crew, had its hull ripped through when it hit rocks late on Friday.
The missing are thought to include four crew members, as well as passengers from the US, Germany, France and Italy.
The ship's captain, Francesco Schettino, has been detained on suspicion of manslaughter and a judge is due to decide on Tuesday whether the 52-year-old should continue to be held.
On Monday, the Costa Concordia's owners, Costa Cruises, said Capt Schettino hit the rocks because he deliberately steered the ship towards to Giglio Island.

Prosecutors also claim that he was responsible for the disaster.
"The captain is in a very difficult position because we are sure enough that he abandoned the ship when many passengers were still waiting to be evacuated," said prosecutor Francesco Verusio.
A transcript purportedly of conversations between the captain and the coastguard has emerged in the Italian media - apparently drawn from one of the ship's black box recorders - which appears to corroborate the claims that the captain left the ship before all the passengers escaped.
Capt Schettino has denied wrongdoing and says the rocks were not on his charts. He has insisted that he and his crew were the last people to leave the vessel.
His lawyer, Bruno Leporatti, said his client was "overcome and wants to express his greatest condolences to the victims", adding that the captain had carried out a dangerous manoeuvre that had actually saved lives.
