A new phenomenon called Planking (where people balance their bodies on unusual places and surfaces, film it and upload to the internet) has claimed the life of an Australian man in Brisbane. The man was trying to balance his body on the edge of an apartment building when he fell to his death. I know I should show some remorse but this guy was just plain stupid and probably got what he deserved. Idiot

Fox has pulled the plug on the show after a 23 year run.  Reasons for Fox pulling the show stem around them not making money on the show in months, but it has however helped to find/capture about 1,151 fugitives. I'm just glad I never made it to this show.

Former California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger has acknowledged that he fathered a child with a member of his household staff, a revelation that apparently prompted wife Maria Shriver to leave the couple's home before they announced their separation last week.

Schwarzenegger and Shriver jointly announced May 9 that they were splitting up after 25 years of marriage. Yet, Shriver moved out of the family's Brentwood mansion earlier in the year after Schwarzenegger acknowledged the child is his, The Los Angeles Times reported Tuesday.
"After leaving the governor's office I told my wife about this event, which occurred over a decade ago," Schwarzenegger told the Times in a statement that also was sent to The Associated Press early Tuesday. "I understand and deserve the feelings of anger and disappointment among my friends and family. There are no excuses and I take full responsibility for the hurt I have caused. I have apologized to Maria, my children and my family. I am truly sorry.
"I ask that the media respect my wife and children through this extremely difficult time," the statement concluded. "While I deserve your attention and criticism, my family does not."
Schwarzenegger's representatives did not comment further. A spokesman for the former first lady told the Times she had no comment.
