Kutcher: I’m not trying to fill Sheen’s shoes

Ashton Kutcher is a modern-day Renaissance Man, with his movie, television and social media ventures, but this Monday, all eyes will be on him as he makes his debut on the hit sitcom “Two and a Half Men.” “Early Show” co-anchor Chris Wragge caught up with Kutcher to talk about the season premiere — and the pressure. Pictures: Fall TV on CBS So what does it feel like to be the new man on “Two and a Half Men”? “I feel like the luckiest guy in the world,” Kutcher said. And what was it that was so appealing to you about getting back into television? “I just offhandedly mentioned to a friend (that), if they offer me that job, I’d take it,” Kutcher said. “It’s always sort of nice to jump on something that’s already moving and successful and people already have an appetite for. It just seemed like the best job in the world” Perhaps too good, Wragge remarked, 해적맞고 for its previous occupant, Charlie Sheen. His eight-season run as hard-living Charlie Harper came to an end after a series of now-infamous feuds and rants. But Kutcher is quick to say he’s not trying to fill Sheen’s shoes. “Here’s the thing,” Kutcher said. “Charlie was incredible on the show and I can’t, there’s no way I’m going to replace Charlie Sheen. I’m not playing his character. But it’s...

SH: I am putting the finishing touches to my next psychological thriller, “Kind of Cruel,” and working on an outline for a TV series. In my head, I am also working on ideas for a self-help/popular psychology book for embarrassed British people, called ‘How to protect your physical and psychological boundaries without looking like an idiot in public’. JG: What surprised you the most during the writing process? SH: Two things really surprised me while I was writing “The Cradle in the Grave.” After all the research I did into the real-life cases of Clark, Cannings and Patel, I ended up none the wiser as to their respective guilt or innocence. I wasn’t even able to make a guess, in any of the three cases. There was plenty of evidence to support whatever story a person might want to tell. That was a little scary. Also, I found that I had sympathy for everyone involved. Doctors who send innocent women to prison for the murders of their babies don’t do it because they’re evil. They do it mistakenly, because they genuinely want to protect and defend children. And women who smother their babies don’t do it because they’re wicked, but rather because they’re desperate and ill. If society was more compassionate and less harshly judgmental, more people could admit to the mistakes they’d made and there would be fewer unsolved mysteries. JG: What would you be doing if you weren’t a writer? SH: I would either be a country singer in the style of Emmylou Harris or Nanci Griffith, or else I would be a psychotherapist – a bossy one, who would get cross if patients didn’t promise to leave their unsuitable partners and tell their controlling parents to get stuffed immediately.

It is so contagious, in fact, that if one person has it, up to 90 percent of people near them who are not immune will also become infected

Authorities in the eastern Caribbean island of St. Lucia have quarantined a cruise ship after discovering a confirmed case of measles aboard. Dr. Merlene Fredericks-James, the island’s chief medical officer, said Thursday that the ship is still in port and that no one has been allowed to leave it. “Whilst in our ports, we will continue to monitor and will not allow disembarkation, given the contagious nature of the disease,” she said in a statement provided to CBS News, adding that the ship was free to leave St. Lucia if it chooses. Fredericks-James identified the infected person as a female crew member who is in stable condition. She said the ship’s doctor has requested 100 doses of the measles vaccine and that St. Lucia is providing them at no cost. The St. Lucia Health Ministry confirmed Thursday that the ship involved is the Freewinds. The 440-foot vessel reportedly belongs to the Church of Scientology. According to the church’s website, the ship, which is normally docked in the Dutch Caribbean island of Curacao, “is the home of the Flag Ship Service Organization (FSSO), a religious retreat ministering the most advanced level of spiritual counseling in the Scientology religion.” An unidentified person who answered the phone at the church’s media center said no one was immediately available for comment. St. Lucia authorities did not provide any additional details about the person...
