Oh my god, it says here that yoga is the new golf! You have to do it with your bosses to move up the corporate ladder, and that's coming from a lady who "advises the 'top 0.5 percent' of companies worldwide!" Yoga's out of control—more! Nothing will ever be the same!

Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker's plan to eliminate 50 years of collective bargaining rights for public employees is supposed to come to a vote today, and Senate Republicans there have the numbers to pass it. So what are Democrats supposed to do? Flee the capital to stop the vote from happening! And far, far away from the capital, hopefully, because police are hunting them down.

Gawker had a chance to speak with Stephen Frears—the renowned British director of such films as My Beautiful Launderette, Dangerous Liaisons, High Fidelity, and The Queen—and get his views on this year's crop of Oscar nominees, George Clooney's politics, and why smart actresses are so sexy.

Top Chef is often full of monsters, but they're usually egotistical chefs, screaming cohosts, and otherwise unruly contestants. Last night the monsters were the lovable ones from Sesame Street. We have never been so tickled by Elmo.

Borders filed its long-expected bankruptcy yesterday. Hundreds of its stores will be closing in the next few weeks. Besides Borders employees, two other groups are worried: book publishers, and mall owners.

Keith Brown, the father of the popular classical piano quintet The 5 Browns, has been charged in a Utah court with "one first-degree felony count of sodomy on a child and two second-degree felony counts of sexual abuse of a child," according to the AP. While the actual court records don't name the victims, a spokesman for the 5 Browns has confirmed that the case involves Brown's three daughters Desirae, Deondra, and Melody. The alleged abused occurred on several occasions over a period ranging from 1990 to 1998.

Why are Republicans having such a hard time finding a decent presidential candidate to crush all the others? It shouldn't be that hard. You only need one, and it's a country of 309 million people. The sitting president is vulnerable, too. That's an incentive to pluck some generic governor who doesn't say insane things all the time! And yet we still have this weak GOP field, where so many candidates have major flaws and aren't really loved by anyone, especially their mothers.

Last night we bore witness to the yearly tradition of miserable, fearsome Group Night, a tableau of horror and agony reminiscent of Picasso's Guernica. No one is ever prepared, everyone is unhappy, the judges put large Coke cups (or in last night's case, Vitamin Water cups) under their faces to collect all the blood, and we at home spasm into strange positions on the couch, issuing strange barks and guttural hoots, pupils the dinner plate size of the computer cleaner girl from Intervention. It's quite a night! It's actually kind of fun.

This starlet used to be buddy buddy with this big name politico, but now he won't take her calls. This actress almost had an arranged marriage and this marriage might split up because the husband is gay. Now that's a marriage with an arrangement.

Paris Hilton's birthday gift cost more than your house. Charlie Sheen lectures Lindsay Lohan on "impulse control." Jessica Alba is pregnant again. Thursday gossip likes the cars that go boom.

The sexual assault on CBS' Lara Logan in Egypt did, indeed, shock the nation. That doesn't mean that the White House should make it a top agenda item.

Alleged crack dealer Jaquan "Jay Cash" Layne — while sitting in prison on armed-robbery charges — back in 2009 made phone calls from a Riker's Island pay phone to his lackluster sales crew in Harlem, prosecutors said yesterday according to the Post. So, how does one go about motivating a group of less-than-motivated crack dealers? Here's a several step guide, according to recorded conversations from Layne:

The World Health Organization just released a report about global alcohol consumption. Conclusion: Our planet is wasted!

Computers are officially better than humans at Jeopardy. IBM's supercomputer Watson beat out Jeopardy champs Ken Jennings and Brad Rutter for a second night in a row—without even being connected to the Internet! A few embarrassing missteps (answering "Dorothy Parker" instead of "The Elements of Style" on a Daily Double) couldn't keep Watson from annihilating his human competition. (See above for Watson's winning Final Jeopardy answer.)

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg is going to meet Barack Obama in San Francisco next week, along with other "business leaders in technology and business." Would love to be a fly on the wall in that room. Obama has a sort of complicated relationship with Facebook! On the one hand, college students clicking "like" got him elected in 2008. And Zuckerberg is running a successful business, which Obama likes, even if Facebook probably creates a net-loss in GDP due to hours wasted on Farmville.

Just like Hansel and Gretel were trapped in that gingerbread house, we are still trapped in the sweet, sweet world of New York Fashion Week. Here are some of the best pictures of the day, like this model backstage at 3.1 Philip Lim. We can't tell if she's delighted or yawning. [Image via AP]

Today we saw video of thousands of state workers in Wisconsin protesting their fabulous new governor's fabulous idea to ban collective bargaining for state employees. What's the big deal? One commenter explains.

I do not know the rationale behind this mysterious Japanese TV show where dozens of kittens are set loose in a room full of casserole dishes in which they must curl up and sleep. I do not know if the rationale matters.

Michael Kelly was killed in a Humvee accident in Iraq. Bob Woodruff was blown up by an I.E.D. Damn near every reporter covering the Egyptian revolution was assaulted one way or another, including Lara Logan, in the most awful possible way. Hundreds of reporters around the world are attacked every year on the job. Is that a necessity?

Former South Carolina Senate candidate Alvin Greene lost another election last night. He came in with 9%—or 37 total votes—in a state House primary. Maybe now it's time to visit a psychiatrist?
