"What's Cookin' Today" with Erik and Jack
 Live Monday-Friday (7-8 AM PT) CRN1
 Ellen Rakieten and Anne Coyle   "UNDATEABLE"
Did your date show up wearing socks with sandals? Are tighty-whities a deal-breaker for you? Do fanny packs make you want to run for the door? Now, for the very first time, we’re revealing the secret list of things that so many perfectly eligible guys manage to wear, say, or do to make themselves completely undateable. With an essential rating system that ranges from minor red-flag offenses all the way to the irreversible kiss of death, this hilarious handbook exposes the many common mistakes that can turn an otherwise acceptable man from a “maybe” into a “no way.” From pleated shorts and soul patches to ordering girly drinks and owning more than one cat, the evidence is painfully funny to behold. No more double denim, corporate swag, or exclaiming “Booya!” No more jogging in place at stoplights, and definitely no more “going dutch” on the first date. This book is for every woman who’s ever wondered where to draw the line, and every guy who’s ever asked, “What did I do wrong?”  Ellen Rakieten is currently President of Ellen Rakieten Entertainment. For over twenty- three years, she was a key force in creating, developing, writing, and producing The Oprah Winfrey Show, helping to make it one of the most successful television shows in history. She has also launched and promoted hundreds of bestselling products, books, movies, and careers. Her razorsharp instincts on “what sells” make her one of the most highly acclaimed and sought- after executive producers in the entertainment industry. Ellen recently partnered with Jerry Seinfeld to create The Marriage Ref for NBC.

Ed Moy - Director U.S. Mint

Edmund C. Moy was sworn in as the 38th Director of the United States Mint on September 5, 2006. As Director of the United States Mint, Mr. Moy leads the world’s largest manufacturer of coins, medals, and numismatic (coin) products. Like the 50 State Quarters program that came before, beginning in April 2010, the United States Mint will issue 56 quarter-dollar coins featuring designs depicting national parks and other national sites as part of the United States Mint America the Beautiful Quarters Program.  Initiated as part of the America's Beautiful National Parks Quarter Dollar Coin Act of 2008, five coins will be issued sequentially each year, in the order in which the featured site was first established as a national park or site. The five quarters to be released in 2010 will honor Hot Springs National Park in Arkansas, Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming, Yosemite National Park in California, Grand Canyon National Park in Arizona and Mt. Hood National Forest in
Oregon.

A renowned thinker, teacher, and rabbi, he is the author of Yearnings: Embracing the Sacred Messiness of Life  Today we talk about Passover/Easter.








JAMES TUPPER ("Dr. Chris Sands" on NBC's "Mercy")
From creator/executive producer Liz Heldens (NBC’s "Friday Night Lights"), executive producers Gretchen Berg & Aaron Harberts ("Pushing Daisies") and Gail Berman and Lloyd Braun comes "Mercy," a new medical drama about the lives of the people who work at Mercy Hospital seen through the eyes of those who know it best – its nurses. Nurse Veronica Callahan (Taylor Schilling "Dark Matter") has just returned to Mercy Hospital from a tour in Iraq and knows more about medicine than all of the residents combined. Together with fellow nurses Sonia Jimenez (Jaime Lee Kirchner, "Rescue Me"), who turns the heads of everyone in the hospital and Chloe Payne (Michelle Trachtenberg, "Gossip Girl"), a naïve newcomer who learns to deal with the difficulties of working in a challenging and sometimes unsettling profession, they navigate the daily traumas and social landmines of life and love both inside the hospital and out in the real world. With his ruggedly handsome, all-American good looks, James Tupper is topping the lists of Hollywood’s hottest men in record time. From the soft spoken heartbreaker’s starring roles in “Men In Trees” and “Samantha Who?” to being declared one of TV Guide’s Sexiest Stars and US Weekly’s Sexiest TV Men.
