There's plenty of speculation over whether actress Ashley Judd will enter the race for U.S. Senate in Kentucky against Republican minority leader Mitch McConnell.

"I don't think you do what she's doing now unless you're pretty damn sure you're going to run," Rep. John Yarmuth (D-Ky.) told USA Today.

If she does decide to run, Judd will join an elite group of celebrities that made the transition into politics. 

We looked back at the biggest stars that have turned their star power into political capital.

Mayor Clint Eastwood (R)

Claim To Fame: Eastwood is best known for his roles in westerns and action films. Some of his best include The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly, Dirty Harry, and Gran Torino.

Political Career: After a local planning board blocked his attempts to remodel an office building next to the restaurant he owned in Carmel, Calif., he ran for mayor. His celebrity status gave him a landslide victory and he served a single two-year term, from 1986 to 1988. One of his first acts was to fire most of the planning board.

He also gave the most memorable speech of the 2012 Republican National Convention.

Rep. Sonny Bono (R-Calif.)

Claim To Fame: He's probably best known for his musical career as the male half of the 1960s musical duo Sonny & Cher. They expanded their celebrity into a television variety show during the 1970s, and Bono later went on to act in a number of small roles.

Political Career: Like Eastwood, Bono's career began out of frustration with the local Palm Springs, Calif. bureaucracy. He ran for mayor and won, serving for four years. After an unsuccessful bid for Senate in California in 1992, Bono won a House seat in 1994, and served until his death in 1998. 

Mayor Jerry Springer (D)

Claim To Fame: He's best known as the host of the tabloid talk show The Jerry Springer Show — a television series which often had guests shouting profanities, throwing chairs, and fist-fighting.

Best Quote: "It's just a show. It's not the end of Western Civilization. It's chewing gum."

Political Career: Before being the host of his talk show, Springer made a name for himself in local Cincinnati politics, winning seats on the city council, and ultimately served as mayor. His political career took a dive in 1974 however, after it was learned that he hired a prostitute.

Historically, Pepsi has a fantastic advertising reputation.

In recent decades, it's been focused on youth and pop culture. (Nicki Minaj is a current brand ambassador.) The brand has, of course, had its missteps, but generally speaking Pepsi has released admirable work.

We took a look through Retronaut and found a selection of ads the brand created in the 1950s.  

Back then, as today, the drink wanted to be sexy and modern. In its ads, the drink and its consumers were portrayed as super-classy, upscale types at the center of the social scene.

Pepsi wanted consumers to see it as the classy brand in the cola war.

Stylish professionals drank it.

Basically, Pepsi was aspirational ...

High unemployment, poor access to basic necessities such as food, shelter, and medicine, and rising obesity rates continue to plague many of America's Southern states, according to the latest Gallup-Healthways Well-Being Index. 

The Index looks at six categories: basic access, life evaluation, emotional health, work environment, healthy behaviors, and physical health (we've highlighted a few in the following slides).

In general, state-level scores remained consistent with the past five years of data. Western and Midwestern states ranked highest on the wellbeing index, with Hawaii topping the list, and Southern states ranked near the bottom.

Politicians of both parties have largely flocked to social media sites in reaching out to constituents and gain more support, but until recently, few have ventured into the world of Instagram.

The popular mobile photo-sharing platform with 90-million active monthly users is starting to gain ground as politicians realize its potential.

Both Republicans and Democrats in local and national politics have started to embrace the social networking site, and they are posting some spectacular photos from within the halls of power.

The official account of the Senate GOP sent out this photo of the Capitol halls on Feb. 22, 2013, which was painted by Constantino Brumidi in the mid-1800s.

Two months ago, an Australian designer named Fred Nerby redesigned Facebook as a side project for himself and posted it to Behance.

His design went nuclear. Nerby says at minimum it's received 20 million views worldwide. 

With such notice comes some perks.

Just twenty-four hours after his design went live, he says firms from around the world started reaching out to him. "I honest lost count after a couple of days," Nerby tells us over email. "Things changed drastically for me and I got invited to spend time overseas talking to a large number of companies and creatives within the digital space, both agencies and more product/platform based companies in the California region (Facebook being one of them) and also Australia, which has been fantastic!"

He wouldn't reveal much about his conversations with Facebook, other than he's not going to be working there. Instead, he says he took a job with a different firm, though he won't reveal where.

The lesson here: If you do good work, and it gets noticed, you can end up with a sweet new gig. It is a little bit of a needle in a haystack, but it's possible.

Can any of the major star-driven plays set to open on Broadway over the next few months match the off-stage drama that consumed the theater world last week? It would be hard for any play to top the rumors and Twitter meltdowns that accompanied Shia LaBeouf's eleventh-hour exit from "Orphans" with less than a month to go before its Broadway debut.  

But fret not theater fans, stars so big they need only use their first names ("Bette" and 'Tom" and "Alec") are still on tap to blaze across the greater Broadway area. After all, it's nearly spring -- that time of year when a horde of Hollywood stars make the cross-country pilgrimage to New York to prove their theatrical mettle -- and maybe pick up a Tony Award to boot.

Last season, theater producers benefited enormously from this talent infusion. Thanks to star-studded revivals, such as "Death of a Salesman" with Philip Seymour Hoffman and Andrew Garfield, which arrived with higher ticket prices, Broadway hit a record $1.14 billion in sales in 2011-12, according to the Broadway League.

Also read: Jane Lynch to Make Broadway Debut in 'Annie'

The lineup of plays and musicals hitting Broadway and Off-Broadway theaters is again a  star-studded one, filled with stage newbies and theater veterans. Tom Hanks and Jane Lynch will be making their Great White Way debuts this season (Lynch, jumping in as a replacement in "Annie"), while old hands like Alec Baldwin will again tread the boards.

A number of hot talents are making their presence felt behind the scenes. "Kinky Boots," a new musical from pop icon Cyndi Lauper, and "Matilda," a musical adaptation of the Roald Dahl children's book from Australian comedian Tim Minchin, are two shows are arriving with big expectations.

For producers, the appeal of going with a star is obvious. Having someone like Hanks above the title can mean big money. Premium tickets for "Lucky Guy" are currently on sale for $350.

But the hazards can be great too, even for film and TV actors who were enthusiastically received in prior stage engagements. Take Scarlett Johansson: She won a Tony three years ago for “A View From the Bridge” but found that taking on the sultry role of Maggie in “Cat on a Hot Tin Roof” left critics cold.

Here's a look at some of the stars soon heading for New York stages.

Tom Hanks will star in "Lucky Guy."

Where/When: Broadhurst Theatre. Previews begin March 1, opens April 24

Theatrical Experience: Pretty limited. This A-lister made his theater debut as a servant in a production of “The Taming of the Shrew” at the Great Lakes Shakespeare Festival, according to the New York Times. “Lucky Guy” marks his first time on Broadway.

Why We're Psyched: It’s Tom “Forrest Gump” Hanks in a play by the late, great Nora Ephron. Their previous collaborations include beloved romantic comedies like “You’ve Got Mail” and “Sleepless in Seattle,” so when they get together they have a history of sparkle. This play centers on a tabloid columnist in 1980s New York, a bygone era before Disney and Guy Fieri took over Times Square. Hanks and Ephron should make for spirited tour guides through all that urban rot.

Bette Midler will return to the stage in "I'll Eat You Last."

Where/When: Booth Theatre. Previews begin April 5, opens April 24

Theatrical Experience: The Divine Miss M got her start on Broadway singing “Sunrise, Sunset” as a replacement in the 1967 cast of “Fiddler on the Roof” and went on to win a Special Tony for her revue “Clams on the Half Shell.” But it’s been 30 years since she last appeared on Broadway.

Why We're Psyched: This one-woman show about chain-smoking super-agent Sue Mengers gives Midler a brassy part she can sink her teeth into. Mengers shattered every kind of glass-ceiling to become one of the most powerful women in Hollywood. Midler’s life story isn’t so different. Here’s betting she makes audiences remember what they’ve been missing for three decades.

Fiona Shaw from HBO's "True Blood" will be in "The Testament of Mary."

Where/When: Walter Kerr Theatre. Previews begin March 26, opens April 22.

Theatrical Experience: Shaw is known for her small screen work on "True Blood" and as Harry Potter's muggle aunt in the film franchise, but she's a legend among theater lovers, with a trophy case full of Olivier Awards to prove it.

Why We're Psyched: This adaptation of Irish author Colm Toibin's novella marks the reunion of Shaw and director Deborah Warner, who previously caused critics' pulses to gallop over their acclaimed productions of "Medea" and "The Waste Land." Their latest collaboration seems bound to stir controversy, centering, as it does, on Jesus' mother Mary, who in Toibin's telling is grappling with the death of her son and somewhat put off by his worshipful disciples. It could be Broadway's answer to "The Last Temptation of Christ," making it a must-see for any self-respecting theater devotee.

Wall Street is a super competitive place. So it should come as no surprise that some hot-shot athletes end up working there. 

We've included a round up of some of the best athletes on the Street.  Our list includes Olympic swimmers and rowers as well as former professional football players and a race car driver.  

These athletes work in positions from sales trader and broker to managing director and hedge fund manager.   

Some of the athletes are still working on The Street, while others have retired.  We even found some who haven't stopped competing since taking up finance and one who left to pursue a career as a professional athlete.  

If you feel like someone should be included on this list, feel free to send us as email at jlaroche@businessinsider.com. 

Klete Keller

Wall Street Career: He was hired by Cantor Fitzgerald recently, according to FINRA records. We're told he's trading debt for the firm, a source told Business Insider.

Athletic Career: Keller, 30, who has won five Olympic medals (two golds, two bronze and one silver), is best known for holding off Ian Thorpe (a.k.a "the Thorpedo") in the anchor leg of the 4x200 relay at the 2000 Olympics.

Clément Lefert

Wall Street Career: He's currently interning at a commodities hedge fund Andurand Capital Management in London, according to Bloomberg News.

Athletic Career: He swam at the University of Southern California.  His main event for swimming in college was the butterfly. Lefert's 4×100 meters freestyle relay team won a gold medal at the London Olympics last summer beating out the U.S. team, which included decorated Olympian Michael Phelps. 

Greg Zolman

Wall Street Career: Last year, Daniel Loeb hired him to work for Third Point.  Zolman focuses focus on Technology, Media & Telecom for the hedge fund. Previously, he was a vice president at Serendiv Capital, a long/short equity hedge fund. Before that, he worked in investment banking at Morgan Stanley focusing on media and telecom.  

Athletic Career: Zolman played three seasons in the NFL playing for the Indianapolis Colts, Green Bay Packers, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, St. Louis Rams and Buffalo Bills. He also spent a season with NFL-Europe playing for Rhein Fire, according to his LinkedIn profile.

There are a few websites that mean well, but their domain names read funny.

Take Therapist.com, for example. It can easily be misread as The Rapist.

Here are some of the funniest, most inappropriate-sounding domain names from around the web.

Last year, Pen Island sold you only the best pens. It seems the site owner realized the domain was frequently read as PenisLand. Now it's fittingly a porn site.

You should use whorepresents.com to find a celebrity's agent, not to buy gifts.

If you don't like your body, it's not worth visiting dollarsexchange.com. It used to be a site for people looking to trade American money. Now the site no longer exists.

Ouya, the Android-powered gaming console, will start shipping to customers on March 28.

Despite the tremendous interest in the device (it raised $8.5 million on Kickstarter), the device still has quite a road ahead of it.

Will it be facing off with the Xbox? Will Android fragmentation become a problem?

And will people outside the tech world even care about it?

How will Ouya address piracy?

We previously interviewed developer Loren Brichter about this. He said that "from the outset with its Kickstarter fundraising process, Ouya touted its console as being easy to root, which lets it operate outside the normal boundaries of the Android operating system, potentially making it way too easy to run pirated software."

How will Ouya appeal to people outside the tech sphere?

As a tech project initially launched on Kickstarter, Ouya feels very niche-y. It's a techie's dream, running the open source Android operating system. But will the normals be able to understand and appreciate this to the point that they want to own one?

Has the company done as good a job publicizing its product as it can?

Brandon Pollett, President of F5 Games, told us that "the biggest question, of course, is are consumers going to care. They've hit the right price, they're doing all the right things, but if consumers don't get it, it could all be for nothing in the long run. They are still going to need to do some serious marketing around the launch to let people know what it is and why it's going to be valuable."

The T-Mobile girl is one of the most recognizable brand spokespeople out there right now. She gives Progressive's Flo a run for her money.

Famous for her pink dress and then bad girl biker makeover, few people know what the real T-Mobile girl is like.

Her name is Carly Foulkes, and the graphic novel-reading, skateboard-loving, video-game playing, 24-year-old isn't your typical model/actress/whatever.

Since she took over for Catherine Zeta-Jones as the T-Mobile spokesperson in 2010, Americans have gotten to know her as the feminine side of the technology world. But did you know that she doesn't even have a Facebook account?

We took a look past her cell phone plan.

Foulkes is from our neighbor to the North.

According the description on her Twitter handle, "I am Canadian. Embrace it. Love it. ...Please:)"

The province? Again, according to her Twitter, "Your moms house."

Foulkes was born to British parents who raised her in Toronto. She spent her summers in the UK.

She's only 24.

Foulkes first donned the T-Mobile dress when she was only 22 years old.

Born on August 4, 1988, Foulkes is proudly a Leo. According to an interview with My Daily, she was distressed when false rumors spread last year that the astrological calendar had shifted.

If we are going to take the whole astrology thing seriously, being a Leo means Foulkes can be a little melodramatic and vain, but she is also ambitious, encouraging, and loyal.

Ok, but seriously, what's she like?

Carly Foulkes loves to skateboard.

She also loves playing video games.

Many CEOs carefully cultivate a quiet and considered public image, limiting contact to quarterly earnings calls or the occasional carefully-considered interview. 

Then there are the others. The ones who make headlines with outbursts on politics, about their competitors, or even against an entire country's work ethic.

At best, these incidents are distracting. At worst, they hurt a companies reputation and lose them customers. We identified the biggest loose cannons at major companies who can't seem to stay out of the news. 

News Corporation CEO Rupert Murdoch

The News Corporation founder and CEO frequently sounds off on his conservative political views through his twitter account. 

On Google: "Piracy leader is Google who streams movies free, sells advts around them. No wonder pouring millions into lobbying."

On President Obama: "Yesterday Obama went off script, showed real self ie government omnipotent, individuals secondary. Must be big damage."

Titan International CEO Maurice Taylor

Taylor recently got into a public spat with the French government after failing to come to an agreement to save a factory. He sent a letter to the country's Minister of Transforming Productivity, heavily criticizing the French work ethic and unions.

From the letter:"I have visited the factory a couple of times. The French workforce gets paid high wages but works only three hours. They get one hour for breaks and lunch, talk for three, and work for three. I told this to the French union workers to their faces. They told me that’s the French way!"

Ryanair CEO Michael O'Leary

O'Leary runs a popular Irish budget airline. He's prone to making bombastic, sometimes expletive-laden statements and the occasional personal attack, which have landed him in legal trouble more than once. 

The Telegraph collected a few of his best quotes:

"Anyone who thinks Ryanair flights are some sort of bastion of sanctity where you can contemplate your navel is wrong. We already bombard you with as many in-flight announcements and trolleys as we can. Anyone who looks like [they're] sleeping, we wake them up to sell them things."

"I think the most influential person in Europe in the last 20 to 30 years has been Margaret Thatcher, who has left a lasting legacy that has driven us towards lower taxes and greater efficiency. Without her we'd all be living in some French bloody unemployed republic."

Andy Ellison is an MRI technician at Boston University School of Medicine. In addition to scanning brains, he also creates stunning MRI scans of fruits and vegetables. 

The images show the cross-section of items like an onion (shown right), bell pepper, or sunflower. 

Ellison initially scanned an orange as a way to test his machine's settings before doing any real work. Amazed by the resulting images, he began looking for more produce and plants to scan. 

We previously posted still images of Ellison's work, but he's also made some really cool animated GIFs by stitching those images together.

Billions of dollars really do grow on trees –– at least for the handful of Forbes' 2013 Billionaires who didn't have to work for their ten-figure bank accounts.

Of more than 1,400 billionaires listed, Forbes listed "inherited" as the source of income for only a handful.

Though we are sure there are other billionaires whose wealth came by way of inheritance (Sam Walton's billionaire heirs, for one), we are highlighting the ones Forbes specifically calls out.

We've taken a closer look at how they found their way to riches.

1. Lily Safra

Forbes ranking: #1175
Net Worth: $1.2 billion
Age: 75
Country: Monaco

Lily Safra, 75, owes her wealth to her late husband, billionaire banker Edmond Safra, who died in a 1999 apartment fire, according to Forbes.

The well-heeled widow is the third wealthiest person in her native Monaco.  

Charitable giving: Safra made headlines in 2012 when she auctioned off a 70-piece collection of jewelry to benefit nearly three dozen charities. The lot sold for an astounding $38 million.

2. Elaine Marshall & Family

Forbes ranking: #145
Net Worth: $8 billion
Age: 70
Country: U.S.

Now that sequestration has hit, people are wondering whether we're going to see another 1937.

That's the year that brought America a 12-month-long "recession-within-a-depression."

The Dow also fell 47 percent.

But there remains disagreement about what caused this event.

Keynesians like Paul Krugman argue it was indeed the result of Roosevelt's decision to curb New Deal spending.

Monetarists, meanwhile, believe fears of inflation choked off business spending.

And still a third prominent economist, Dartmouth's Douglas Irwin, has recently written it was the result of gold sterilization — that is, federal gold reserves out of the monetary supply.

Before we determine who's right, we wanted to go back and see what contemporary accounts were saying.

By April of 1937, many had grown fearful about excessive New Deal Spending. This editorial compared it to Santa's bag of gifts. But it's also worth noting it says it was inevitable.

By August, there were signs the economy was faltering.

But the government was convinced it was time to leave business to its own devices — lest the U.S. risk bankruptcy, as writer David Lawrence put it.

Oberlin College cancelled its Monday classes after an individual was seen wearing a robe and hood resembling Ku Klux Klan regalia near the Afrikan Heritage House.

The incident took place early Monday morning, and it remains unclear if the person wearing the outfit was a student at the college. The report is currently being investigated by the college's Office of Safety and Security as well as the Oberlin Police Department, the college said in a statement today.

This is only the latest in a series of racist, homophobic, and anti-Semitic incidents at the college, according to the Oberlin Review. The student-run paper has a detailed list of the other hate-related occurrences on campus since February 9, including swastika drawings, vandalism of Black History Month posters, and hate speech graffiti found in student common areas.

Additionally, Gawker's Max Read reported there is a Nazi-themed Twitter account named "Adolf Krislov" with the handle @realMarvKrislov, a direct attack on Oberlin's President Marvin Krislov.

In lieu of classes, all students, faculty, and staff are being encouraged to participate in discussions and rallies being held on campus today, including a teach-in led by the Africana Studies Department and a community convocation at the college's chapel.

Oberlin is a liberal arts school that was found in 1833, and began accepting non-white students in 1835. The student make-up is 72 percent white, 6 percent black/African American, and 6 percent Hispanic/Latino, according to Forbes.

Read the college's full press release:

See more pictures from the Oberlin campus rallies today below:

The rally included traditional Afrikana singing and music

 A student told us that around 700 people were rallying "in strength and solidarity." 

The rally covered an estimated 5 city blocks.  

Now students are marching across campus together

Just because an app is meant for one thing doesn't mean it can't be perfectly capable to handle another.

Here are eight interesting ways to get stuff done using an app that's designed for something completely different.

Find your books more easily with Evernote.

Lifehacker explains how to make it a snap to find books on your shelves.

By taking a picture of the bookshelves with the spines facing out, Evernote's OCR capability can read the author and title text. Search for book you want and Evernote will show you where it is on your shelf.

Improve your posture with Lift.

If you want to develop a good habit, Lift is perfectly suited to help you get there.

On our personal iPhone, a reminder from the app goes off at 10 AM every morning that reminds us to keep our backs straight. It's working wonders so far.

Home Inventory

An app called Home Inventory is used to keep track of your home possessions, but a farmer has found that it's perfectly suited for tracking cattle:

"For my needs I have the herd and cow#, purchase date & price, sold date & price or date died.  That way at the end of the year I can run a report (list) of cows that died or were sold for tax purposes not to mention which cow is in which herd so that we can keep track of each cow."

The newest addition to MariSol, a luxury residential community in Malibu, is this gorgeous 7,100-square-foot Spanish Estate newly listed for $15.9 million.

It was designed by Barry Berkus, a California architect known for his high ceilings, mass-market designs, and brand-name appeal. Berkus passed away in December of last year, leaving behind a legacy that included designing for big clients like William Levitt, the inventor of Levittowns and pioneer of the modern suburb. 

This single-story mansion comes fully-furnished with twin master suites, a 50-foot infinity edge pool, five fireplaces, and enough parking for 10 cars. There's also plenty of security with video cameras and stone perimeter walls, not to mention lush, landscaped vegetation to keep the property extra private.

The Spanish Estate sits on a 102-foot bluff in front of County Line Beach, Malibu.
