Eleven people have been charged with the theft of passenger property at Los Angeles International Airport, prosecutors said on Friday, including a baggage screener accused of stealing a $100,000 watch from Paris Hilton's bag.

The suspects, who also included two U.S. Transportation Security Administration screeners charged with taking a $7,000 watch belonging to R&B singer Keyshia Cole, were arrested as part of a crackdown on crime at the airport.

Prosecutors say George Penaranda, a 27-year-old TSA screener, was spotted by a co-worker taking a Paris Hilton Limited Edition watch from the hotel heiress's bag, slipping it into his glove and then his pocket in May of 2006.

Penaranda replaced the watch, which was valued at $100,000, after he realized that he had been observed, City Attorney's spokesman Frank Mateljan said. He was charged with grand theft and faces a maximum sentence of one year in jail and a $1,000 fine if he is convicted.

Screeners Qualonda Matthews, 32, and Millicent Pounds, 49, were charged with one count of grand theft, one count of misappropriation of property and one count of conspiracy.

Prosecutors say that after Cole left her $7,000 watch behind at a security checkpoint, Matthews and Pounds took it from the airport's lost property section and ultimately sold it in Las Vegas.

The eight other people charged included five TSA screeners, two employees of an airport subcontractor and a transient.

The crackdown is the result of a task force involving nearly a dozen law enforcement agencies, including the city attorney's office, Los Angeles Police Department, U.S. Department of Homeland Security and the TSA.

The Los Angeles City Attorney has just filed criminal charges against a T.S.A. employee at Los Angeles International Airport, alleging that he took a high-priced watch out of Paris Hilton's luggage.

It happened last year with a baggage screener at British Airways. The employee allegedly took a watch worth several thousand dollars out of one of Paris' carry-on bags.

In addition to that employee, the City Attorney is filing charges against seven other T.S.A. employees, alleging they did similar things to other passengers.

No indication on whether Paris will testify.

The fact that Paris and Nicole are friends again and will have to survive without their luxuries at a family run camp in the middle of nowhere takes us back full circle to the original concept that makes this show so much fun.

At a night club a paparazzi caught the two girls hugging, one of them who is always caught up in some scandal, Paris Hilton, and the other one of the biggest stars of the porn industry, Jenna Jameson. It was only an introduction, according to egostatic.com.

Even though many have compared the two, first of all because of physical appearance, they had just met.

According to the guests at the club, the two were created for each other.

Maybe it was only a marketing trick, because a lot of people want to put them together, and maybe the newly made friendship will last.

Paris Hilton may have officially broken things off with Stavros Niarchos last year, but the couple have been on-again, off-again for months now. Not anymore. Paris has reportedly kicked Stavros to the curb for good after hitting it off with a new man last weekend.

An insider told Life & Style Weekly, "Paris dumped Stavros. She's been getting tired of him for a while. She feels he's just too insecure and immature…Stavros was devastated. He's really bummed out. He was crazy about Paris. Paris says she really cares about him as a friend, but she doesn't want to be in a relationship right now. She loves him, but she's not in love with him."

Maybe Paris doesn't want a relationship with Stavros anymore, but it looks like she's ready for romance with a new guy, "Desperate Housewives's" Josh Henderson. Henderson first vaulted to stardom on the reality show "Popstars" and was in the spotlight again as Ashlee Simpson's jerky boyfriend on her MTV reality show. Henderson and Hilton met on Friday night at Les Deux where, "They were kissing on the couch like two giddy teenagers. It was really cute," a witness told L&S.

It's no wonder that Paris and Josh spent the next night together as L&S's source said, "The chemistry between them was intense." The new couple went to Area on Saturday and "couldn't take their eyes off of each other", according to a snitch for Star magazine. Stavros was clearly far from Paris's mind as she looked on adoringly at Josh. Says the witness, "Paris looked completely smitten with Josh. She just kept smiling and laughing at everything he said, like she was under his spell."

The heiress and her boytoy got into a friend's Hummer after leaving Area. Star's source said, "Paris and Josh sat in the backseat of the car by themselves for about 15 minutes. It was just the two of them talking and flirting. I guess they wanted to have some alone time before heading to Paris' house where she had a St. Patrick's Day party."

When the party kicked off later that night, Stavros was "nowhere in sight," a pal told Star. The Greek shipping heir would likely have gotten jealous if he had shown up for the soiree. Another source on the scene said, "Paris was with Josh most of the night. She appeared to be having a lot of fun. The two were in the kitchen the entire night eating pizza and talking."

"Michael is very creative. You can see where Lindsay got her drive and her talent. He has a few reality shows he wants to pitch - including one in which he and Lindsay are put on a desert island with Paris Hilton, Jessica Simpson and their dads. We'll be going along when he does that. We'll be with him when he tries to 'save' some of his old Hollywood pals," producer Brett Hudson was quoted by Hollywoodrag, as saying.

Michael's other ideas include offering Sunset Boulevard prostitutes money toalk through their problems.

"He has other ideas, like going out on Sunset Boulevard andiving a prostitute a hundred dollar bill - not for sex, but for her time soe can talk to her and try to save her. He wants to make things right withhe world. And especially with his family," Brett added.
