I remember some entertainment site talking about a suicide on House this season so when I saw the preview for this week's episode it kind of gave it away. Just didn't know it would be Kutner.

Looks like more House-Kirk's Mom relationship dynamics for next week.

it could be a couple of thing

i mean before last season there were only 3 members of the team, although foremans character has been one of the more dull ones this season, but they may just want to go back to 3 members.

Also he could be doing another movie it could have been many reasons. He wasn't bad for the show so it he had to have left on his terms.

Well, seeing as my original post was removed, here we go again:

Wow - Just plain wow. Originally the plan was to <<Censored>> while doin' the hour on the exercise bike, however I got up a wee-bit late, so had to watch Dexter instead (which aint a bad thing), <<Censored>>. Finished the ol' hour on the bike, <<Censored>>, got changed, and ready for work.

Finishes work just after dinnertime (I work part-time, albeit in strange shifts - sometimes 'tis everyday for a few hours, sometimes 'tis a few days, all day) and after getting some bits and pieces I gets home and jumps on the 'net to find that House threads are near the top of pretty much every site I visits.

Anyways, later on this afternoon I did the second hour session on the bike, <<Censored>> - holy wow, I wasn't expecting that. I knew something had happened, because of all the House talk, but I thought it might be something to do with Houses' blurred vision at the end of the last episode - definitely wasn't expecting it to be what it did.

Really, Really good episode, no two ways about it.

Actor Kal Penn joining the Obama administration

Posted: 04:15 PM ET

From CNN Associate Producer Martina Stewart

Actor Kal Penn, shown in this file photo greeting Obama just days before his inauguration, will be joining the White House Office of Public Liaison.

Actor Kal Penn, shown in this file photo greeting Obama just days before his inauguration, will be joining the White House Office of Public Liaison.

WASHINGTON (CNN) - Actor and longtime Obama supporter Kal Penn is joining the Obama administration, the White House confirmed to CNN Tuesday.

The actor will be part of the White House Office of Public Liaison, which is run by Obama senior adviser Valerie Jarrett. Penn will be primarily involved in dealing with Asian American and Pacific Islander communities and the arts community.

Penn's new gig was first reported by EW.com, which shares parent company Time Warner with CNN.

Penn told EW.com that the new position comes after some soul-searching.

There was "'something aching in me to do something completely different and take a break from the acting thing for a while'" Penn said he told the executive producers of the TV series "House" when he explained his decision to get involved with politics full-time.

The actor also said his interest in politics has deep roots. "I've been thinking about [moving into politics] for a while. I love what I do as an actor. I couldn't love it more. . . . .probably from the time I was a kid, I really enjoyed that balance between the arts and public service."

"It's probably because of the value system my grandparents instilled in me. They marched with Gandhi in the Indian independence movement, and that was always in the back of my head. So the past couple of years I thought about it a little more."

But Penn also is leaving the door open to returning to acting at some later point. "Who's to say where any path leads? I still have a passion for it. But for the time being, I won't be acting," Penn told EW.com

Penn endorsed Obama's White House bid in late 2007, and was a frequent campaign surrogate on the trail last year.

    • Threads scales past half a billion users, brings deeper community and feed controls

      By Fiza Ali · Posted

      Threads scales past half a billion users, brings deeper community and feed controls by Fiza Ali Meta has announced Threads crossing a major milestone of 500 million monthly active users. And, at the heart of this growth sits something simple: communities. From books to basketball, parenting to music, Threads says its rise has been powered by people clustering around shared interests and, in turn, giving the platform its identity. In response, the platform is expanding its Communities feature beyond beta and introducing a set of new tools designed to make participation easier and more engaging. A redesigned Communities Hub will now appear in the main navigation menu, allowing users to jump between groups without leaving their feed. Each community will also receive a distinct Community Icon, giving them clearer visual identity and making them easier to recognise across the platform. Then there’s Community Progress, which is a kind of live gauge showing how close a topic is to becoming a full-fledged community, alongside guidance on how users can contribute to its development. In addition, Meta is also expanding its Community Champions programme, recognising more users who actively contribute to community engagement. And then things go more local; Local Communities is already available in 100 countries, including North America, South America, Asia, and Europe but are now rolling out with native-language tags starting in Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan. The platform is also expanding Live Chats to more communities in the coming weeks, adding features such as co-hosting and the ability to quote moments directly into users’ feeds. Beyond communities, Meta is tightening the loop between users and their feeds. Earlier this year came "Dear Algo," a feature that lets people tell Threads what they want more or less of. Now it’s being paired with a new tool, "Your Algo." It allows people to adjust how frequently certain topics appear, with options lasting one, three, or seven days. Meta says these preferences remain private and can be managed alongside “Dear Algo” in a unified settings hub. The rollout begins in the US, Canada, UK, Australia, and New Zealand. Finally, the company says these changes are part of an ongoing effort to refine Threads based on user feedback and that further updates will continue as the platform evolves.
