Minnesota's top Tea Party hostess Michele Bachmann skipped Sunday brunch to go on television and discuss how she feels about the Republican party's plan to take away Medicare from America's Olds. Surprisingly, she's not totally down with it, and is using punctuation to let everybody know.

NASA's postponed Endeavour's final blast-off to the cosmos once again, citing the same broken auxiliary power unit that delayed the launch the first time. Shucks!

Following the apparent death of Libyan dictator Mommar Qaddafi's son Saif al-Arab in an NATO airstrike on Saturday, Western embassies and diplomatic missions were reportedly attacked in Tripoli by pro-Qaddafi forces.

The White House Correspondents' Dinner is a loathsome affair, a sweaty, boozy monument to venality and the contemptible power-worship of Washington journalists. But it's got LOLs! Oh, the LOLs. And—like last year—Obama provided plenty. Here are some highlights.

A NATO airstrike killed Saif al-Arab Qaddafi, the son of Libyan leader Moammar Qaddafi (pictured), according to a government spokesman. Three of Qaddafi's grandsons were also killed, while Qaddafi himself narrowly escaped. Saif al-Arab was Qaddafi's youngest son.

If you're one of the kids who's spending the weekend trying to decide whether to go to Harvard next year or become a prison guard in one of California's luxurious prisons, you might check out the Wall Street Journal.

Generally speaking, the only job at which one is allowed to act in a pornographic movie while on the clock is "porn star." Alas, this lesson was lost on two fine officers with the Los Angeles Department of Transportation, whose brief, on-duty foray into the world of sex movies has aroused the attention of their superiors.

Planning on attending the spring art auctions this week? You might want to bring a spare suitcase-full-of-cash or two: At least a dozen pieces are priced in the $20 million range, including works by Picasso, Monet (pronounced Mo-neyyy), and Maurice de Vlaminck (he was a Fauve). But how can a poor struggling artist like yourself get that kind of dough?

This is a video of Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney telling an audience in New Hampshire on Wednesday that Republicans are "going to hang" Barack Obama—and then immediately catching himself. So you see: Romney only wants to hang Obama metaphorically. Which is, sad to say, a good thing, insofar as it's uhm, nice (?) to see a prominent Republican use racially problematic language by mistake, and not in a deliberate, cynical pandering strategy. And he actually seemed pretty embarrassed! Mitt Romney 2012: Not a Completely Cynical Scumbag. [via TPM]

France is dropping "concrete filled training bombs" all over Libyan dictator Mo Qaddafi's murder tanks, which is cool because concrete bombs don't produce big explosions that kill innocent people. This seems like an important characteristic.

Glitter star Mariah Carey gave birth to twins—a girl and a boy—on Saturday, her fourth wedding anniversary with her husband, the guy from All That. Neither child has yet been named. Like most expecting parents, the couple drove to the hospital in their Rolls-Royce Phantom; according to Carey's publicist Cindi Berger, Cannon "was so nervous he went to the wrong department at the hospital." Carey is apparently "done" with having children. [AP]

As part of her ongoing efforts to protect Arizona citizens from being beheaded or anchor babied to death, human cactus Jan Brewer has signed a bill authorizing the construction of a border fence.

Toshiso Kosako, a government adviser and expert on radiation safety, resigned from his post on Friday night over the Japanese government's decision to allow schoolchildren near the damaged Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plant to face radiation doses "far higher than international limits set for the public." Don't worry too much about the Fukushima kids, though—a government spokesman says this is all a big misunderstanding, and that they "believe" they "have firmly complied with the law." Kosako's resignation has added more fuel to the general sentiment that the Japanese government has mishandled the crisis—one survey found three-quarters of respondents unsatisfied with the leadership of Prime Minister Naoto Kan (pictured)—but that's probably just a misunderstanding, too.

Fish peddler Yong Hao Wu has been charged with importing thousands of live snakehead fish—a crime in New York state, in case you've slacked off on studying your fish laws (don't feel ashamed; we've all been there).

An empty house in Marblehead, Mass. seems to have called 911 on its own after months of enduring a leaky pipe that covered the walls with toxic mold. And you thought that dog that called the police was smart.

We have to slog through one more weekend of April showers before enjoying the May flowers, so you might as well go see a movie! Coming to theaters this week are thirteen assassins, two car-driving badasses, and a bunch of squiggly prom-goers.

The studio behind Megan Fox's straight-to-DVD movie stinkbomb, Passion Play, released a new cache of images and teasers today. Even lead actor Mickey Rourke admits that the movie about a freak show "bird lady" is "not very good." So why did this movie get made?

If you're ordering in tonight and you live in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, watch out: Some vigilante bicycle delivery guy has set up a blog posting the names and addresses of people who give him crappy tips.

Eye disease! Springtime anorexia! Food pathogens! Coca-Cola chemicals! Chinese smoking! Tall blood clots! Botox lawsuits! Teen drinking! And legal stem cell research, yeah! It's your Friday Health Watch, where we watch your health—while smoking!

After 15 long months, Glenn Beck has finally unloaded his home in New Canaan, Conn., for $3.6 million—a 14% loss from the $4.25 million he paid for it in 2005 and 27% than it was listed for last year. Stick with gold, Glenn.
