With so much travel news raining down on us, we don't always have time to give every story its own forecast. Here's more of the day's news, in brief.

· Gridiron Stars Missing After Boating Trip: The tragic news continues in 2009 with the reports that two NFL players are missing after their boat failed to return from a fishing trip. The Coast Guard is still looking for Oakland Raiders linebacker Marquis Cooper and NFL free agent Corey Smith along with one other passenger. A fourth passenger was found clinging to the boat this morning. [NY Times]

· Dr. Seuss' Birthday: It's Dr. Seuss' birthday today and around America today libraries are hosting Dr. Seuss reading events to honor what would have been his 105th birthday. Remember we want to hear about the "places you'll go."[Wikipedia]

· Bad Day for Southwest?: Southwest was ordered by the FAA to pay $7.5 million on safety fines and now some IT experts are saying the Conficker worm is expected to hit the Southwest website. [Dark Reading]

New York: Not Broadway Travel: K-Fed Won't Go "Blonde"

egw — 2008-07-22T11:00:21-05:00

Hey, remember Kevin Federline? Seems like a year ago he had full custody of the sanity from the Spears-Federline marriage. But now the former Mr. Britney just got canned from his latest job as a bit actor on Broadway in "Legally Blonde."

What does one have to do to get fired from a show based on a Reese Witherspoon movie, for which MTV just cast the lead via reality show? Well... no one really knows, but we assume he wanted to introduce his own raps into the proceedings. In any case, "Blonde" is missing some of its actors and Federline, who recently assumed full custody of sons Jayden James and Sean Preston, will have more time to spend being a dad.

Other interesting stunt-casting news from this month: Aubrey O'Day of Danity Kane goes to "Hairspray"; Whoopi Goldberg steps into the shoes of a goddess in "Xanadu" and Jeremy Piven will take the lead in the revival of David Mamet's "Speed-the-Plow" alongside "Mad Men" striver Elisabeth Moss. Oh, and the winner of the MTV show was a preacher's daughter from South Carolina named Bailey Hanks who had never seen a Broadway show before.

Wilmington: Is N.C. the New Toronto? K-Fed Thinks So!

egw — 2007-08-27T08:55:01-05:00

Who let Kevin Federline out of L.A.? The famous Cheeto-pusher turned "responsible" divorced dad has crossed the country to film a multi-episode arc on the CW series "One Tree Hill," which takes place (and is filmed) in North Carolina. Federline is stretching his acting muscles to play Jason, a rock singer (not rapper!) who mixes with the all-grown-up cast.

This isn't the city of Wilmington's first major film invasion; besides hosting the teen drama of another generation, "Dawson's Creek," it has also played host to the casts of "Blue Velvet," "A Walk to Remember" and "Super Mario Bros."

Boston: Attend an Anti-Valentine's Day Party with Kevin Federline

djk — 2007-02-01T15:02:32-05:00

If you have a reason to celebrate Valentine's day, you probably already have plans of some sort. If you only have a reason to mourn, however, you could still be contemplating: bar with friends? movie at home? shooting range? Well, here's one option for you singles in the Boston area. Kevin Federline will be hosting an Anti-Valentine's Day party on February 9 at Gypsy Bar. Friday night partygoers can bring photos of their exes to shred or simply enjoy a drink with "the biggest EX of the year."

For a bit of pampering to fill the void of romance in your life, you could opt for a stay at the Four Seasons Boston, which is close by on Boylston Street. It won't come cheap though: weekend rates are sold out, and standard rates are $625.

The club is promoting the party with a line on the website that reads "Are you among the most jaded? Come party with America’s Most Hated, Kevin Federline (yes – for real)." Oh, we don't doubt it's for real. What else does he have to do?

Las Vegas: Britney Spears 2.0 Lands in Vegas at The Palms

sedona — 2006-11-20T10:30:01-05:00

Britney Spears is enjoying her newfound freedom and headed to Vegas this weekend, minus the kids, to prove it. Seems she spent the majority of her days away at The Palms, where she was spotted chatting up George Maloof while wearing her ridiculous "disguise" - a hot pink wig and gigantic sunglasses.

Brit also popped into the Palms' private recording studio with producer Lukasz Gottwald to mix tracks on her new album, and raked in a hearty $10,000 at the high-limit blackjack table. (See, ditching K-Fed was good luck!) Later she hit up a club with Mario Lopez, who was playing earlier at her table. Not bad for a day's work. We're just sooooo glad to see her hitting the road without K-Fed that right now we're willing to overlook the Mario Lopez bit and the cheesy extensions we caught her rocking that sadly were not part of the disguise.

Osyka: Britney Spears Jets To Nyla's Burger Basket

sedona — 2006-11-15T09:10:13-05:00

While Kevin Federline celebrated his divorce by pseudo-promoting his new album in DC last weekend, Brit went her own way and jumped on a plane yesterday to spend time with the kids in her homeland: Kentwood, LA.

While in town, Brit popped over to Mississippi and stopped at her favorite gourmet eatery, Nyla's Burger Basket. Nyla, a 55-year-old family friend of Brit's, serves up fast food, lots of greasy burgers and fries, and milkshakes. In other words, wonderful food for growing toddlers. Nyla claimed that Brit looks "beautiful" with her "cute little short hair cut."

The fam left town yesterday evening, perhaps to head to Miami where Britney was originally scheduled to be headed towards earlier this week.

Washington: K-Fed Touches Down in DC

sedona — 2006-11-13T09:17:07-05:00

Think soon-to-be legally single Kevin Federline would let a mere divorce ruin his weekend travel plans? Nah. The father of, um, four, flew to Washington, DC, on Friday to pimp out his new CD, Playing With Fire, at Platinum, a massive, four-level nightclub.

K-Fed apparently made a scene with his "excessive" entourage and "drank a little, chain-smoked a lot, laughed with various members of his posse and, inexplicably, blinked a flashlight at people around the club." That's our Kevin. No need for an impromptu live perfomance to actually prove you might have rapped what's on the album. Earlier in the day, he reportedly hit up a Wal-Mart in Hagerstown, MD, to stock up on necessities for the evening ahead.

TMZ reports that K-Fed also stayed at a "cheap" hotel in town, perhaps to prep for his pending life of child-support payments ahead?
