An estimated 87,000 people attended a rally organized by talk-radio host and Fox News commentator Glenn Beck Saturday in Washington, according to a crowd estimate commissioned by CBS News. The company AirPhotosLive.com based the attendance on aerial pictures it took over the rally, which stretched from in front of the Lincoln Memorial along the Reflecting Pool to the Washington Monument. Beck and former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin spoke at the rally. Beck, who predicted that at least 100,000 people would show up, opened his comments with a joke: “I have just gotten word from the media that there is over 1,000 people here today.” AirPhotosLive.com gave its estimate a margin of error of 9,000, meaning between 78,000 and 96,000 people attended the rally. The photos used to make the estimate were taken at noon Saturday, which is when the company estimated was the rally's high point. Rally organizers had a permit for crowd of 300,000. Crowd estimates used to be provided by the National Park Service, but the agency stopped counting crowds in 1997 after being accused of underestimating the size of the Million Man March in 1995. added by: TimALoftis

Until now. “I needed some alone time,” says Montag of reports that she moved out of the Pacific Palisades, Calif., home she shared with Spencer, to People magazine. “I just needed space – even from my husband. I had to get away from the lies my family and supposed friends are saying about me,” adds Heidi Montag. “It’s time to concentrate on myself.” SO ALONE … except for the celebrity news photographer . The reality star says she plans on spending the summer clearing her head and getting in some much need girl time with pal and new roommate Jen Bunney. Their summer of self-love will be captured by reality TV cameras, natch. As for her future with Spencer Pratt , it’s a work in progress: “I’ve always loved Spencer,” says his plastic princess, “but right now we’re working on things.” Something else she’s working on? Trying to set the record for cheesiest, most hilariously staged photo shoot in history. This one is up there with the best. Here’s Heidi Montag pouting and missing Spencer. Here’s Heidi pet her dogs – they won’t leave her! Here’s Heidi and Jen Bunney having a riveting chat. Reflecting on life by the reflecting pool … so deep. Or shallow, in more ways than one?
