Yesterday a demolition crew blew up a 275-foot tower at the old Mad River Power Plant in Springfield, Ohio to great fanfare. But there was one problem — it fell the wrong way and took out the area's electricity.

The post-Richard Johnson era Page Six today has an item about Chinatown's Santos Party House being shut down over the "criminal sale or possession of controlled substances" inside the club. Too bad they ran a picture of the wrong guys!

Yesterday a great white shark killed 19-year-old boogie-boarder Lucas Ransom in California after ripping his leg off at the pelvis. An expert said the shark probably thought Ransom was a sea lion, in a tragic case of "mistaken identity." [LAT]

New York Times business columnist Joe Nocera's column last weekend excoriated H.P. and SAP, and presented Oracle in a positive light. One problem: Nocera's fiancee is the PR person for Oracle's lead attorney in its lawsuit against SAP. Woops.

People really are very upset about the new logo of famous clothing store GAP! Whereas the former white-on-blue logo was iconic, the new black-letters-next-to-a-little-blue-box design has Gap fans and branding experts alike befuddled and discombobulated.

College newspapers are not totally worthless. They are where young journalists go to learn. About scandal! Angry readers! Outraged parents! Repentant editors! Scared-shitless administrators! And all over some kids who are just making it up as they go! It's great.

Last Saturday, a White House Staffer canceled a White House tour for recently deceased Medal of Honor winner Vernon Baker's family when his 10-year-old grandson showed up wearing "shorts and a T-shirt bearing a picture" of Baker. They're sorry. [AP]

Look at what prestigious Time magazine put on its website yesterday: this dumb poll that doesn't even make sense. Japery—or mistakery? Oh, mercy. You can't make this stuff up, folks. Click to enlarge—if you dare!

The most awkward thing that can happen on a live reality TV finale happened today: Sarah Murdoch, daughter-in-law of Rupert and host of Australia's Next Top Model, crowned the wrong winner. Two minutes of cheering later, she realized her error.

By accident! Don't get all freaked out. It was an accident! The Easton, PA high school put the Hitler quote "And in the last analysis, success is what matters" in its 2010 yearbook, not noticing that it was a Hitlerism.

Freedom, the most groundbreaking book about white people since Jonathan Franzen's last book, isn't released until August 31. But Amazon.com reportedly put the whole thing online yesterday by accident. Anybody grab a copy? It's only newsworthy three more days. [Updated]

Marc Esparza, the young former dowtown day trader hit with a $172 million tax bill, tells the NYDN that (as suspected) the bill's a mistake, based on his lack of tax filings. Esparza is "hipster chillen'," they report. Okay.

The Way We Live Now: being proven wrong. It doesn't do much for our self-esteem, but then again, self-esteem and a buck fifty will get you a cup of coffee these days. And a buck fifty's nowhere to be found.

The IRS says that Marcos Esparza Bofill, a young former Alphabet City resident (reported as a "hipster," for being a young Alphabet City resident), owes $172 million in back taxes. How'd that happen?

Oh, CNN, you amuse us: three days after a hilarious typo appeared on screen (see it here), Wolf Blitzer entered The Situation Room today with "New Developments" suggesting that—shocker!—President Obama is not, in fact, a Muslim. Screengrab inside.

BBC weatherman Tomasz Schafernaker got peeved yesterday when co-anchor Simon McCoy implied that his forecast wouldn't be accurate. So, he flipped McCoy the bird, without realizing he was on camera. The worst middle finger coverup ever then ensued. Video inside.

Ah, typos, you've got to love them—especially when they're funny. Like this one, from this afternoon's CNN Newsroom, which we received a tip about and—luckily—were able to grab a screencap of from one of our Slingboxes. Pic inside.
