Lindsay Lohan's Burglary Caught on Tape!


New evidence has surfaced in the Lindsay Lohan burglary case. Police have released the survelience tape, and detectives believe the trio entered through an unlocked door and took personal items belonging to the actress.

Cop Investigated for Feeding Gorilla Pop-Tarts?



A St. Paul police officer is under investigation after entering Como Zoo, after hours, to feed gorillas a snack.

Surveillance video captured the incident last January, around 2 a.m., when two zoo security guards snuck four to eight people into the zoo. Among the unauthorized visitors, was an off-duty St. Paul Cop.

The Como Zoo isn't sure if the gorillas actually ate the Pop-Tarts or not. Regardless, the gorillas appear to be doing just fine.

The three gorillas are named Schroeder, Gordy and Togo. The Zoo says zoo-goers are not allowed to feed the animals. For God sake just let the gorilla have something OTHER than the overdone banana's. I save give em' some POP-TARTS!

Jo Bro for President? Nick Jonas Says Look for Him in 2040


The bad news for Barack Obama is that a good-looking, self-funded, scandal-free entertainer announced Monday that he wants to run for the White House. The good news is that the aspiring candidate is too busy right now to apply to college, let alone get a campaign together.

But once he has the time (and once he's old enough to vote), 16-year-old Nick Jonas said a political career is in his sights. "I've always had this dream of being the president some day," Jonas told a sold-out crowd at Washington's National Press Club. "In 2040 to be exact. We sell bumper stickers on tour that say 'Jonas 2040,' so go pick one of those up and start the campaign."

I don't know about you but with the way some things are going currently I'd be prone to giving the kid a chance at the seat now.

Microsoft Edits Black Man Out of Photo


Software giant Microsoft Corp. is apologizing for altering a photo on its Web site to change the race of one of the people shown in the picture.

A photo on the Seattle-based company's U.S. Web site shows two men, one Asian and one black, and a white woman seated at a conference room table. But on the Web site of Microsoft's Polish business unit, the black man's head has been replaced with that of a white man. The color of his hand remains unchanged.

The photo editing sparked criticism online. Some bloggers said Poland's ethnic homogeneity may have played a role in changing the photo.

"We are looking into the details of this situation," Microsoft spokesperson Lou Gellos said in a statement Tuesday. "We apologize and are in the process of pulling down the image."

Now I can see Apple taking aim at this in their next campaign and I would applaud them for doing so. I'm SO offended by what Microsoft did here.
