The lights were set to go out on the Los Angeles County Museum of Art's weekend film program. But then some deep-pocketed angels came down to give it a helping hand! Let us rejoice!

Those Fox News folk were on a roll tonight. First there was Glenn Beck's "poor me" soliloquy. And then Bill O'Reilly went on to break the ceasefire between his network and NBC. And totally called out NBC honcho Jeff Zucker.

Yeah, yeah, we all know cocaine's a hell of a drug. But did you know that coke-related deaths in Britain are up more than 50%. Heroin-related deaths are up about 25%. That's fucking scary. Don't do it! [The Sun]

A Korean satellite, valued at $11m, appears to have fallen to earth after its launch.

People are stupid. Pure and simple. Take, for example, rumors circulating that Michael Jackson, like Tupac and Elvis, still walks among us. Why would people believe such an outlandish thing? Again: they're stupid. And then there's this...

If there's one good thing about town halls, it's that we get a glimpse of our fellow Americans' true colors. But is that really what happened when Rep. Lynn Jenkins insisted Republicans can find a "great white hope"?

Scary-yet-lovable actress Evan Rachel Wood makes her first on-screen appearance in next week's True Blood. So, what can we expect? Omnivorous sexuality.

The president's historic election didn't help break his name into the top 1000 baby names.

It never fails: you leave a little food on your plate and some liberal whines about all the starving children in Africa. Well, thanks to a new, cheap invitro program, there may soon be more hungry mouths to not feed...

Poor, sad Glenn Beck. The right-wing Fox News man (redundant?) lost scores of advertisers over his inflammatory rhetoric, was forced into hiding and now seems to be laying the ground work for a swift, shameful exit...

Top Chef Masters is over, and Top Chef Minors has arrived. This is good, because baiting minor-league chefs in a live blog is much more fun than master-baiting. Let the minor-baiting begin!

Alex Blagg can't let go of unwatched movies; Molly McAleer wants to smack some kids; and Susan Orlean transmitted some liberal schadenfreude, via retweet. The Twitterati were feeling guilty about their feelings.

They even made a video to explain everything, above. The couple claims to have inaugurated "The World's First Start-up Wedding Registry" to fund their super-secret Web company Aboomba. Friends and family can "feed an outsourced engineer for a day" to make the couple rich, or maybe pay the utilities for a month, to make the couple rich or even buy some banner ads, which will also help make the couple rich. Delightful!

Dominick Dunne, chronicler of crime, celebrity, and the intersection of the two, has died at 83. Dunne had been suffering from bladder cancer.

Once upon a time Denis Beausejour was a wealthy ad exec at the world's largest advertiser, P&G. But guess what: he was also a major sex addict. Luckily now he has found Jesus and shared his sexy redemption story.

Anna Wintour's Make-People-Like-Me-Before-My-Contract-Is-Up Tour 2009 needed a charitable arm. She came up with Fashion's Night Out, a plan to save the industry, the economy, and her job all at once. But it's not a charity, it's a power play.

• Corton's Paul Liebrandt may be widely respected chef. But to describe him as an unpleasant interview subject would be a huge understatement. [BlackBook]

Hassan Nemazee, the banker and Democratic mega-fundraiser who was charged yesterday with forging financial documents to get Citibank to give him a $74 million loan, got to leave prison today. And just like Marc Dreier and Bernie Madoff before him, he'll be under house arrest from now on, confined to a $20 million, 14th floor co-op at 770 Park Avenue. The terms of Nemazee's release are pretty strict: The $25 million bail package requires him to pledge his Park Avenue apartment and house in Katonah as collateral; he'll be monitored round the click via electronic bracelet; and the judge also banned him from using computers, the Internet, or getting a new cell phone. (What's he going to do all day? God only knows.) Prosecutors argued for the tough terms because they said Nemazee is a flight risk, and by the looks of it, the judge was inclined to agree. But that's where you come in! The apartment next door to Nemazee's is up for sale. Maybe you want to move in and keep an eye on him? We can't say so for sure, but prosecutors might be willing to cut you a break the next time jury duty rolls around if you step up and perform the valuable service. A couple of pics and a floor plan of Apt. 14B are below.
