CHEAT SHEET
MUST READS FROM ALL OVER
SHUTDOWN
1. The Tea Party's Budget Freakout
Grassroots activists in the organization are losing patience with GOP
leaders over the budget battle - and The Daily Beast's Patricia Murphy
reports that not even Speaker John Boehner is immune to their wrath.

BUDGET CRISIS
2. Democrats Agree to $38B in Cuts
Democrats agreed to $38 billion in cuts Friday, but that still may not
be enough for Republicans, who are now demanding to cut Planned
Parenthood off from federal cash. Democrats insisted that abortion
funding was the only hangup to an agreement, while Republicans say there
has been no consensus on how much general spending to cut. "Almost all
of the policy riders have been dealt with, but there is no agreement on
spending," House Speaker John Boehner said. Boehner had a closed-door
meeting with the GOP Conference Friday afternoon, and President Obama
was reportedly unhappy with the message he got from the speaker
afterward. Government funding expires at midnight Friday, jeopardizing
the employment of 800,000 workers.

The Yes List - A 'Sex and the City' Star Strips Down
http://e.thedailybeast.com/a/tBNnzlSB7SwhTB8aKx0NsjV9otB/htmlprev?t=BNnzlSB7SwhTB8aKx0NsjV9otB&RAF_TRACK=&email=dwyld.kwu.wyldside@blogger.com

The Daily Beast - The Yes List - April 8, 2011
*************************************************************************
Each week, The Daily Beast sifts through the cultural landscape to
choose three top picks. This week, a startling indie turn from Kim
Cattrall, a roundtable discussion about David Foster Wallace's 'The Pale
King,' and a beloved period drama sneaks back onto television.
So Long, Samantha Jones
Kim Cattrall's a long way from Fifth Avenue in her new film 'Meet Monica
Velour.' The 'Sex and the City' icon is in the middle of a surprising
career move, trading in her Manolos to play a broken-down porn star. But
this isn't the first time Cattrall's avoided being pigeonholed. As
feminist icon Samantha Jones, she narrowly escaped the humiliating
purgatory of roles for middle-aged women, yet it's been seven years
since she and her small-screen counterparts left HBO. Her next step?
Casting off every remnant of glamour to portray a meth-snorting,
biker-snogging, aging '70s porn actress in writer-director Keith
Bearden's indie debut, released this weekend in New York and Los
Angeles. It's a semi-sweet coming-of-age story for her character Monica
and her oddball teenage fan (Dustin Ingram) who finds her at her trailer
park. It also shows the world a side of Cattrall we've never seen before
- makeup-less and carrying an extra 20 pounds. "I've been marginalized
in some ways, too," she confessed to The Daily Beast's Gina Piccalo. Her
latest role is a small but powerful one, and does plenty to erase any
memories of her cosmo-swilling, man-eating alter-ego.
Pick #2: The David Foster Wallace Generation

Pick #3: 'Upstairs Downstairs' Returns
