Mari the Shiba Inu has a serious problem: Her best friend keeps trying to hit on her, but she just doesn't feel that way about him.

I'm going with my gut here because I've seen a lot of fucked-up practices on TLC, but this clip of the cooking and eating of a potentially deadly Vietnamese centipede from last night's My Crazy Obsession is absolutely the most disgusting thing I've seen on the channel yet. It's worse than the woman who drank almost all of the urine that came of of her body. It's worse than the family that used (and reused) washcloths instead of toilet paper. It's worse than sketti.

In an effort to be "fair, nuanced, and precise," the L.A. Times will "no longer refer to individuals as 'illegal immigrants' or 'undocumented immigrants,'" in favor of "describ[ing] a person's circumstances"

While Amanda Bynes continues to insist she isn't insane or addicted to drugs — "I'm allergic to alcohol" she recently told In Touch — her TwitPics tell another story.

Police arrested a woman Tuesday after she allegedly slipped two "tainted" bottles of orange juice into the drink fridge at a San Jose Starbucks. Authorities charged her with attempted murder, saying the bottles contained a "lethal dose" of rubbing alcohol. How much is that, exactly? Glad you asked.

Hotel executive and Obama donor Penny Pritzker will nominated for Commerce secretary today. Pritzker, the Tribune notes, "has had rocky relations with labor unions," which is one way of putting it. Another way: "Penny Pritzker has a long and storied history as an anti-labor and anti-worker kind of boss."

Chris “Mac Daddy” Kelly, one half of the popular early 1990s rap duo Kris Kross, has died. He was found unresponsive in his home Wednesday afternoon and was taken to Atlanta Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead. He was 34.

A daring and drunken attempt to find a set of missing keys nearly turned tragic on Tuesday. A woman in Miami was waiting on a locksmith after she'd accidentally dropped her keys into a sewer drain when our hero, Richard Brandenburg, 49, walked by and said he could help. Brandenburg told the woman he used to work in the sewers and therefore knew how they worked and where the lost keys might have gone.

Eleven years ago, Brenda Heist dropped her two children off at school in Lititz, Pa. and then disappeared. The dinner she'd been preparing was left defrosting, and her car was found in a nearby county. None of her possessions were missing.

Since then, her ex husband has remarried, and her two children, now 19 and 23, went to college.

Two young, maybe-brothers learned at least two valuable lessons Sunday night. Ranked in order of importance, those lessons are: 1) don't be a creep and spy on women (or anyone) in the bathroom and 2) don't crawl across ceiling tiles, especially if you're spying on women in the bathroom. Alas, the confusingly named suspects, Eduard Petrovich Kovynev, 26, and Eduard Alexander Kovynev, 27, had to learn those lessons the hard way and, as a result, were arrested.

Miley Cyrus did a hard R-rated photoshoot for the new issue of V Magazine that offers up lots of boobs, buttcheeks, and one giant pair of pink underpants. Despite this feast of flesh, it still manages to be less sexual than the weird Pretty Baby Vanity Fair spread she shot five years ago at age 15.

Users of China's home-brewed Twitter-alike Weibo have been having some fun this week with photos of the phenomenally phallic Beijing headquarters-to-be of the state-run People's Daily newspaper.
