Oden had been out of the headlines for some time, after his latest injury. He is currently out for the year, for the second time in his three seasons of play. But the leaked photos put him back in the spotlight - and likely reminded people of who he even was.
It says something that it took nude leaked pictures for fans to talk about Greg Oden again. Just three years ago, everyone was talking about him for much better reasons, as he was pegged as the next great NBA center ever since high school. His one year of college, in which he led Ohio State to the national title game, only ensured Oden's legend.
Greg Oden leaked photos continue to make their way through the Web. The Greg Oden leaked photos helped make Oden a nude icon, as his naked form and genitals were displayed to the world. The Trail Blazers' center was just the latest young star to take naked pictures of himself, thinking
Greg Oden Leaked Photos More Noteworthy Than Oden's NBA Career
they wouldn't leak. But since they have, it has caused some online infamy and made him a highly sought after search topic. However, the Greg Oden leaked photos may be the most lasting fame he's gotten in about three years.
But the minute he got to the NBA, everything collapsed for Oden. He missed his entire rookie year, made small contributions in his second year, and is now sidelined again for his third. Nowadays, the Greg Oden leaked photos may be the thing he is best remembered for from the last three years.
These pictures were first taken a year and a half ago, during his first official season of play. If they had leaked back then, it might have been easier to overcome them, since he was actually playing at the time. But since he is injured, Oden can't make headlines on the court to overshadow this embarrassment.
By next season, when he is fully healed, the leaked photos should be long gone. Yet if he wants to be remembered for something more than that, he is running out of time. The Trail Blazers have been a winning team without him, but they need his help to get to the next level. In addition, Portland remembers how they took Oden over Kevin Durant, who is having an All-Star season at Oklahoma City.

Darius Rucker Just Getting Started in Country Music
Darius says he'll know when that time has come, but he also acknowledges that he has a lot of work to do before getting there.
"[I'll have fulfilled that dream] when I get a lifetime achievement award from the CMA's or the ACM's," says the singer.
"I want to have that kind of career. I want to make records that people want to listen to. In 10 or 15 years from now, when I don't want to do this anymore, I want that to be important to the world of country music."
In the meantime, Darius has started laying the groundwork for his sophomore country album which he's anxious for his fans to hear.
Just because Darius Rucker is closing in on his fourth consecutive No. 1 country single with 'History in the Making' from the platinum-selling 'Learn to Live' album, don't think he's fully realized his dream of being an accomplished country singer just yet.
"I didn't fulfill that dream. We've started it," he tells The Boot. "We've started what I want to do."
n the meantime, Darius has started laying the groundwork for his sophomore country album which he's anxious for his fans to hear.
"I'm very excited with the songs [on this album]," Darius says. "I think this last record ended up being about where I am today. This next record may be a lot more about what it took to get there. We're writing some songs, and I'm going to cut a Radney Foster track for this record. I'm just really excited again."
As for the release date of his yet-to-be-titled album, Darius says it will all happen when it happens.
"We're going to play it by ear," he notes. "When I leave the studio, and when I put it on in my car and can listen to it over and over, then I'm happy."
iPad Coming to Best Buy? Apple's New Product to Hit Shelves in Late February
The iPad is a “tablet computer”, which is basically a small screen--bigger than the iPhone and smaller than a laptop--that has basic computer features. (Of course, “basic” in these days means internet, music, movies, and any other capability that you can think of.) These little gadgets come in six different models that range in price from $499 to $829, and are the “missing link” between smart phones and traditional computers, according to Apple CEO Steve Jobs.
After Apple’s highly-anticipated announcement of its iPad launch, Apple fans and gadget freaks await the next and most important announcement: when and where they can get their hands on one. The word on the street is that the iPad will be ready for retail in late February or early March, available at Best Buy (and obviously Apple stores). Although these are only rumors for now, they are “strong rumors,” according to one source, and consumers can’t wait until these things hit the shelves.
Apple is expecting to sell the iPad in huge numbers this year, and customers worry that Apple may not even be able to meet demand for the first few months.
Apple said that customers have already started to come into the stores, asking about iPad accessories, and stores were already getting phone calls before the official launch was even completed. For those who really can’t wait, there is one company who will be giving out free iPads to some lucky sweepstakes winners. You can try your luck at this website:

But a word of warning--the site will try to rope you into taking all sorts of surveys and signing up for stuff you don't need--of course, as they say, if something is too good to be true then it probably is! Just be sure to read the fine print. Good luck.

Lalah Hathaway Is Up For Grammy
The talent and love for Jazz and Rhythm & Blues was already present in the house that Lalah Hathaway was born in to courtesy of her dad Donny Hathaway – the famous versatile vocalist who performed with the Soul and Rhythm & Blues genre – and her mommy Eulaulah Hathaway; the talented and trained classical vocalist. So with a strong musical and vocals foundation set for her by her parents, it would be only a matter of time before Lalah Hathaway would shine and radiate her gifted voice and musical abilities in front of the world.
Born on the 16th of December in the year 1968, Lalah Hathaway hails from the city of Chicago in the state of Illinois. The very same state that current United States of America’s President, Barack Obama, represented in the United States Senate prior to becoming the leader of the American people.
And perhaps that time has now arrived as Lalah Hathaway finds herself living the dream of seeing her name make it to the list of nominees for the best vocalist in the Rhythm & Blues category at the upcoming Grammy Awards to be held on the 31st of January. If the Grammy nomination translates in to an actual award for Lalah Hathaway, it will prove to be a huge uplift in her already successful and well poised music career.
One thing that struck me about Lalah Hathaway was her looks. Even at forty one years old, she looks a whole lot younger than that age. I gotta find her secret to looking young!

Clinton Kelly goes behind the scenes of 'Miss America'
It's the 250th episode of the show and Kelly says he's got one more year on his contract. But he's not ready to go anywhere. "I'll keep doing the show as long as they want me. I like it. Stacy and I have pretty much a belly laugh every day."On hiatus now, Kelly has been running around all week working another show: Miss America: Behind the Curtain, airing tonight on TLC at 10, right after What Not To Wear. Earlier this week, he pretended he was a contestant.
Clinton Kelly says that one of the worst dressed women ever to set foot on TLC's What Not To Wear appears on tonight's episode (9 p.m. ET).
"I generally lump the women on What Not To Wear into three different categories," says Kelly, who has starred on the show for five years with Stacey London. "They're either frumps, sluts or freaks. Crizti (Walsh, a disc jockey from Norfolk, Va.,) had a little bit of each one."
"It was fun to have Rush Limbaugh firing questions at me. And Vivica Fox! She's more intimidating than Rush," he says. "She's beautiful and intense - that's a scary combination." He says they gave him an 8 out of 10 score.
Other celeb judges at Saturday night's Miss America 2010 show include: Olympian and DWTS champ Shawn Johnson, comedian Paul Rodriguez and American Idol favorite Brooke White. Mario Lopez will host and Clinton will be a correspondent for the show, which airs live from Las Vegas at 8 ET on TLC.
