Tonight Conan O'Brien takes over the reins of the Tonight Show and he'll probably score huge ratings because it's his first show and everyone will be curious to see what the new show looks like. But who are you going to watch at 11:35 after all the hoopla dies down?

All day the speculation around the murder of George Tiller was whether or not it was ideologically motivated. Tonight a suspect is in custody and it's been confirmed that he's a religious extremist who is well-known for plotting domestic terrorism and advocated the killing of doctors who performed abortions.

Sunday's NY Times Magazine featured a cover piece on Bill Clinton titled "The Mellowing of Bill Clinton," but the thing that stood out most was how Clinton is now buddies with one his main defamers from the 90s, while still holding grudges against just about every Democrat who supported Obama.

It's always funny when the New York Post and the New York Daily News replicate each other in some way because they hate each other with the intensity of a million white-hot suns, so you just know somebody got bitched out at both papers after what happened on Sunday.

It's generally a pretty safe assumption that something ridiculous will happen each year at The MTV Movie Awards, and tonight's version of the show did not disappoint. Sacha Baron Cohen just descended bare-assed from the ceiling as "Bruno" and landed in Eminem's lap in the "69" position. Hilarity ensued.

Bill O'Reilly has been harassing George Tiller, the Kansas abortion doctor murdered at the church where he served as a deacon earlier today, for some time now, both with incendiary rhetoric and by dispatching producers Jesse Watters and Porter Barry to ambush him, his lawyer, and the Governor of Kansas.

Former co-host of The View, Lisa Ling, is hitting the press this week for the first time since her sister, Laura (pictured, right) and fellow Current TV journalist Euna Lee were detained by the North Korean government. Their trial's on June 4th, and things aren't looking good.

Poor Susan Boyle. Drudge is reporting via The Sun that the Britain's Got Talent runner-up is being admitted to The Priory clinic. Hopefully this isn't true, because that'd just be sad. Reports had her being consoled by psychiatrists before the finale started. This woman's been through the wringer.

Obama's statement on George Tiller's death: "I am shocked and outraged by the murder of Dr. George Tiller as he attended church services this morning. However profound our differences as Americans over difficult issues such as abortion, they cannot be resolved by heinous acts of violence." [Wichita Eagle]

If there's a reason your town reeks of oversweat Birkenstocks, patchouli, and politically unaddressed body odors, it's because seminal jam band Phish begins their reunion tour tonight. The biggest perk, naturally, will be the influx of high-grade marijuana in your town. But the 5-0 ain't havin' it.

Schwah? These're what appear to be some cheeky advertising student's project - for a theoretical History Channel For Kids - that got published in their Dutch advertising school's journal. Bizarre, disturbing. 9/11 one might not be as "funny" as the other two (JFK's assassination and Normandy Invasion) after the jump.

The last living survivor from the Titanic died today at 97. Millvina Dean was eight weeks-old when the boat went down. Her mother and brother made it off, her father died trying to rescue more passengers off the boat. Her obit's truly a great read. [LA Times]
