Tennessee brings back the electric chair-

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — As the rest of the nation debates the feasibility and humanity of lethal injections against a backdrop of scarce drugs and botched executions, Tennessee has come up with an alternative: the electric chair.

Republican Gov. Bill Haslam signed a bill into law Thursday allowing the state to electrocute death row inmates in the event prisons are unable to obtain the drugs, which have become more and more scarce following a European-led boycott of drug sales for executions.
Tennessee lawmakers overwhelmingly passed the electric chair legislation in April, with the Senate voting 23-3 and the House 68-13 in favor of the bill.

Tennessee is the first state to enact a law to reintroduce the electric chair without giving prisoners an option, said Richard Dieter, executive director of the Death Penalty Information Center, a Washington-based nonprofit organization that opposes executions and tracks the issue.

"There are states that allow inmates to choose, but it is a very different matter for a state to impose a method like electrocution," he said. "No other state has gone so far."

Dieter said he expects legal challenges to arise if the state decides to go through with an electrocution, both on the grounds of whether the state could prove that lethal injection drugs were not obtainable and on the grounds of constitutional protections against cruel and unusual punishment.

Republican state Sen. Ken Yager, a main sponsor of the electric chair measure, said in a recent interview that he introduced the bill because of "a real concern that we could find ourselves in a position that if the chemicals were unavailable to us that we would not be able to carry out the sentence."
The decision comes as lethal injection is receiving more scrutiny as an execution method, especially after last month's botched execution in Oklahoma.

In that case, convicted killer Clayton Lockett, 38, began writhing, clenching his teeth and straining to lift his head off the pillow after he had supposedly been rendered unconscious by the first of three drugs in the state's new lethal injection combination. The execution was halted, and Lockett died of an apparent heart attack 10 minutes later, authorities said. They later blamed a collapsed vein, not the drugs themselves.
But concerns about lethal injection also have risen at a time when Tennessee and many states — including Oklahoma, Missouri and Texas — obtain execution drugs in secret from unidentified compounding pharmacies. Death penalty opponents say the secrecy raises the risk of something going wrong. Read more

Fox news anchor arrested-MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — A Fox News weekend anchor who was arrested after he allegedly became combative with police at the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport may have taken a drug that didn't mix well with alcohol, a police report released Thursday suggests.

Gregg Jarrett, 59, was arrested Wednesday after police were called to the Northern Lights Grill in the airport's main terminal on a report of a customer who was "acting very intoxicated," the report said.

Officers arrived to find Jarrett sitting at the bar — swaying back and forth and using the bar for support — and unwilling or unable to answer questions.

The bar employee told police Jarrett seemed very intoxicated after just one drink. Jarrett allegedly told another customer he'd taken medication before his flight, but he denied that when questioned by police. He told police he'd been drinking vodka since 9 a.m., the report said.

Jarrett was taken to a holding cell for possible detoxification and evaluation, and while there he became agitated, grabbed an officer's arm, and began struggling with police. It took more than one officer to handcuff him, the report said.

Officers found gabapentin pills in his pocket. A search of Jarrett's bag showed he was just released from an alcohol and chemical dependency treatment facility, the report said.

Gabapentin is approved for treating seizure disorders and pain that occurs after shingles, though it is prescribed for a number of other reasons. Side effects can include drowsiness, dizziness and loss of coordination. Jarrett was charged with one count of obstructing the legal process/interfering with a peace officer. He posted $300 bond and was released from the Hennepin County Jail early Thursday. He is scheduled to appear in court June 6.

Court records don't list a defense attorney, and Jarrett did not return an email seeking comment. A person who answered the phone at Fox asked that The Associated Press call back for him at another time.Read more

Klinsmann jolts squad by excluding Donovan from World Cup roster-United States men's national team manager Jurgen Klinsmann always promised a surprise or two with his World Cup roster. He approaches his duties with his own unique perspective. He assembles his squads with an expansive mindset. He shuns convention. He thinks well outside the box.

Few people expected him to spring this sort of country-shaking, mind-blowing shock, though. Klinsmann revealed his 23-man roster for the World Cup on Thursday afternoon and left Landon Donovan off of it.

Donovan isn'€™t some fringe player operating around the margins or some spent force clinging onto hope in the winter of his career. He is the leading scorer in the history of the United States men's national team. He is on the very short list of the best players to ever wear the red, white and blue. He is still one of the best players in Major League Soccer. And now he is surplus to Klinsmann'€™s requirements.

"It has been an honor and privilege to have represented the US National Team in three World Cups," Donovan said on his official Facebook page late Thursday evening. "I was looking forward to playing in Brazil, as you can imagine, I am very disappointed with today's decision."By just about every measure, it is a staggering and seemingly imprudent decision. Donovan -- alongside Michael Bradley, Clint Dempsey and Tim Howard -- represents one of the few players proven under the glare of a World Cup.

He delivers time and time again in the biggest game, a fact reinforced by his heroics against Algeria to send the Americans through four years ago. Even at this stage of his career and even if only used as a substitute, he rests comfortably among the best players at Klinsmann'€™s disposal.

It is a bold and risky decision to leave one of the few players of established class out for this arduous World Cup journey. There are no replacements for Donovan in the pool, no players capable of replicating his particular set of skills. Klinsmann -- the same man who brought Donovan to Bayern Munich and who welcomed him back into the fold after his oft-discussed sabbatical last year -- understands his utility. He simply doesn'€™t value him enough anymore to include him on his 23-man list.

The grounds for that sort of judgment encompass far more than his performances during the first week of a World Cup training camp. It is a wider verdict about his perceived place in the pecking order and his usefulness to a side where he might not feature as a certain starter.

Klinsmann offered a glimpse into his thought process surrounding Donovan when he discussed his roster during a conference call last week. He noted his frank exchanges after Donovan returned to the team last year and spoke about how he evaluated his merits every time he linked up with the team. Read more

'Pretty Little Liars' star Troian Bellisario addresses GQ Photoshop controversy-

"Pretty Little Liars" stars Troian Bellisario, Shay Mitchell, Ashley Benson and Lucy Hale pose in their bikinis for a super-sultry spread in the June 2014 issue of GQ magazine, but the pictures aren't without a bit of controversy -- some are complaining that the photos of the already young and beautiful ladies are overly Photoshopped.

And now Bellisario, 28, has taken to Instagram to not only acknowledge the heavy Photoshop, but to show off her real body sans the heavy touch-ups.

Video: Shay Mitchell -- It's hard to keep 'PLL' secrets

"So by now you have seen many a shot from #GQ and many people have said that we were Photoshopped ... OF COURSE WE WERE!" she writes. "That's a very specific type of photo shoot. And looking very blown out and perfected was obviously what they were looking for. Great. Cool. As long as we acknowledge how it was achieved so we know it's not real." Read more

Arizona Wildfire Grows Along Highway Between Sedona, Flagstaff-Hundreds of firefighters were working to protect communities from a wildfire chewing up a scenic Arizona canyon early Friday that had turned entire trees to ash. The human-caused fire north of Slide Rock State Park grew to about 7,500 acres since Tuesday, as about 900 firefighters and personnel were finally able to get about 5 percent of the blaze's southern end contained, officials said.

The fire is concentrated in and around Oak Creek Canyon, a scenic recreation zone along a highway between Sedona and Flagstaff. Flagstaff Fire Capt. Bill Morse said Friday that the number of burned acres will continue to grow, but so will the containment numbers. “It is important to understand this is all within our catcher’s mitt,” Morse said, adding, “We’re going to be here for a while.” The fire grew tenfold from Wednesday and from 7-1/2 square miles earlier Thursday.

There have been no reports so far of injuries or structures burned. Fire incident commander Tony Sciacca said Thursday night that crews have made good progress and some containment was expected soon but he added, "We are not out of the woods yet." The fire still was 3 to 3-1/2 miles away from the residential areas of Forest Highlands and Katina Village, where 3,200 residents remained under pre-evacuation warnings.

Officials were mindful of the fire's dangers, as they looked at giant flames shooting up the walls of the canyon and saw how hot the fire was burning in the tinder-dry drought conditions. "The fuels are just so dry, entire trees are turning to ash," said Dick Fleishman, a spokesman for fire managers. A primary focus of firefighting efforts will be to pinch off the fire where it has reached the top of the canyon's northeast corner to keep it from burning northward toward residential areas, he said.

 Structural problems close Texas high school's $60 million stadium,The $60 million high school football stadium in the Dallas suburb of Allen is officially closed for the 2014 season after engineers found major structural problems.

Eagle Stadium made national headlines when it opened just two years ago, raising eyebrows with its big price tag. In March, the school district announced it had discovered "extensive cracking" in the concourse and would close for repairs.

After further investigation, Alllen ISD says it won't be a quick and easy fix. "Our commitment to Allen students and taxpayers remains firm that the stadium be repaired properly at the expense of those responsible for the failure: the architect and the builder," superintendent Lance Hindt said.

The two-time defending 5A Division I Texas State Football Champions won't get to enjoy its 18,000-seat palace this upcoming season as the Eagles will be forced to shuffle their schedule and play their home games in Plano. "While we are extremely disappointed that the stadium will remain closed this fall, we recognize that our priority must be to provide a safe venue for our students and the public," Allen ISD Board of Trustees President Louise Master said. The stadium was financed as part of a $119 million bond issue in 2009 and opened for the 2012 football season.

The Shield' Actor Michael Jace Arrested Over Wife's Murder, Police arrested actor Michael Jace early Tuesday morning on suspicion of murder in connection with the shooting death of his wife in their Los Angeles home.

Officers responded to the 5400 block of Brynhurst Avenue in Hyde Park around 8:30 p.m. Monday after neighbors reported the sound of gunshots. They were met by Michael Jace, and discovered April Jace, 40, dead inside the house, according to Detective Sal LaBarbera. He said investigators were not looking for any additional suspects, and believe the incident was isolated to the Jace home. LAPD confirmed Jace, best known for playing an LAPD officer in the TV series "The Shield," was booked on suspicion of murder around 3:30 a.m. Tuesday.

LaBarbera said Jace and his wife have been married for nine years.

The couple's two children, both boys under the age of 10, were in the home at the time of the shooting. The LAPD has not confirmed whether the children witnessed the shooting.

Halle Berry's miracle baby, Halle Berry never expected to get pregnant again and think her daughter Nahla's constant prayers for a sibling were answered. Halle Berry thinks she got pregnant because of her daughter's prayers.

The 47-year-old actress - who has daughter Nahla, six, with former boyfriend Gabriel Aubry and seven-month-old son Maceo with husband Olivier Martinez - thinks it is a miracle she had a second child because she was ''premenopausal'' shortly before she learned she was expecting another baby.

She said: 'I mean, I didn't think it was possible to have another baby and I thought for sure I had a need never to get married again. So, I've learned never to say never.

''Nahla prayed and prayed for him for like a year and a half for a baby and a bunk bed and she got both of those things.

''Only her prayers could have done this I didn't think it was possible at my age, honestly. They call it a geriatric pregnancy.''

''I was, you know, on my way. This is probably way TMI, but I was kinda premenopausal, so to have this happen was huge.''

The 'X-Men: Days of Future Past' star says her daughter dotes on her little brother, and loves nothing better than changing his outfits.

She told talk show host Ellen DeGeneres: ''He's like one of her dollies that came to life.

''You know and all she wants to do is change his clothes. Like she'll purposely like throw something on his shirt and say, 'Oh mommy, he's got to change his shirt. He has a mess on him!' She just likes to change his clothes, change his diapers...''

By John Heilprin, Associated Press, Russian oligarch faces $4.5 billion Swiss divorce, Russian 'fertilizer king' ordered to pay $4.5 billion to ex-wife in Swiss divorce settlement, A Swiss court has ordered a Russian billionaire to pay more than $4.5 billion to his ex-wife in what could become the biggest divorce settlement in history.

In papers delivered Monday to both parties, the Geneva Tribunal of First Instance said Dmitry Rybolovlev, an owner of the French soccer club AS Monaco, must pay 4,020,555,987.80 Swiss francs ($4,509,375,184.80) to ex-wife Elena Rybolovleva of Geneva. Both are aged 47.

The judgment also granted his ex-wife property worth 130.5 million francs ($146 million) in property in Gstaad, Switzerland, where the couple owned two swanky chalets. It awarded his ex-wife two other pieces of real estate in the ultra-wealthy area of Geneva known as Cologny, where the couple once lived together, but listed no value for either address. And it confirmed her custody of their 13-year-old daughter, Anna. The couple also has an adult daughter, Ekaterina.

Her lawyer Marc Bonnant called it "the most expensive divorce in history," an unheard-of amount for Switzerland and for Russian oligarchs.

But Rybolovlev's lawyer said that the judgment's cash order was likely to be whittled down in coming appeals.

"There will definitely be a new appellate review and therefore this judgment is not final given the existence of two levels of appeal in Switzerland," said Tetiana Bersheda.

A separate statement by Bonnant and two other lawyers in the case, Corinne Corminboeuf Harari and Caroline Schumacher, called the record judgment "a complete victory" for her and said that under Swiss law she was entitled to half the fortune he made during their marriage. Most of that fortune was transferred to Cyprus-based trusts in 2005.

The three lawyers said Monday's ruling demonstrated that "no one — not even a Russian tycoon who put his fabulous fortune into legal structures such as trusts and offshore companies — is above the law."

But Rybolovlev's lawyer suggested the opposite, praising the judgment for "confirming both the validity of the trusts created by Mr. Rybolovlev and the validity of the asset transfer to them that occurred long before his wife initiated divorce proceedings."

His ex-wife had demanded $6 billion from the man known as the "fertilizer king," whose fortune from potash mining once made him the world's 79th richest person. He is now ranked 147th on the Forbes list of billionaires, with an estimated fortune of $8.8 billion.

The couple met as university students in Perm, Russia, and married there in 1987. Divorce proceedings began in 2008, when Forbes estimated his worth at $12.8 billion.

Robert Copeland Resigns, uccumbing to the many demands to step down after he uttered a racial slur in reference to President Barack Obama.

Copeland stepped down from his office with a simple email that read "I resign" to Wolfeboro Commission Chairman Joseph Balboni Jr.,  according to the Concord Monitor. According to the local paper, Balboni approached the 82-year-old Copeland Sunday night and asked to him to step down from his post.

"He was very nice, very polite. I said, 'Bob, you’ve gotta step down, everybody says you have to resign,'" Balboni said. He kept saying, 'I’ll think about it,’ and I said, 'Bob, we gotta be serious now.'"

The controversy stemmed from Copeland referring to Obama as a "f***ing [N-Word]" while speaking to friends at a New Hampshire restaurant in March. The racial slur was overheard by another patron, Jane O'Toole, who recently moved to the community four months earlier. O'Toole subsequently informed other town officials of what she heard.

Copeland acknowledged in an email to fellow police commissioners that he had used the slur, writing, "I believe I did use the 'N-word' in reference to the current occupant of the Whitehouse (sic). For this I do not apologize — he meets and exceeds my criteria for such."

The controversy catapulted the sleepy lakeside community of Wolfeboro, which is said to have just 6,300 residents, into the national spotlight. Even former GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney, who has a home in Wolfeboro, weighed in and demanded that the police commissioner resign from his post.

"The vile epithet used and confirmed by the commissioner has no place in our community: He should apologize and resign," Romney said in a statement this week.

By Joe Mcdonald, Associated Press ,China warns US cyber charges could damage ties, China warns US cyber spying charges could damage military ties, says US source of hacking,

 China on Tuesday warned the United States was jeopardizing military ties by charging five Chinese officers with cyberspying and tried to turn the tables on Washington by calling it "the biggest attacker of China's cyberspace."

China announced it was suspending cooperation with the United States in a joint cybersecurity task force over Monday's charges that officers stole trade secrets from major American companies. The Foreign Ministry demanded Washington withdraw the indictment.

The testy exchange marked an escalation in tensions over U.S. complaints that China's military uses its cyber warfare skills to steal foreign trade secrets to help the country's vast state-owned industrial sector. A U.S. security firm, Mandiant, said last year it traced attacks on American and other companies to a military unit in Shanghai.

The charges are the biggest challenge to relations since a meeting last summer between President Barack Obama and his Chinese counterpart, Xi Jinping, in Sunnylands, California.

Ties already were under strain due to conflicts over what Washington says are provocative Chinese moves to assert claims over disputed areas of the East and South China Seas. Beijing complains the Obama administration's effort to shift foreign policy emphasis toward Asia and expand its military presence in the region is emboldening Japan and other neighbors and fueling tension.

Beijing has denied conducting commercial spying and said it is a victim of computer hacking, but has given little indication it investigates foreign complaints.

"The Chinese government and Chinese military as well as relevant personnel have never engaged and never participated in so-called cyber theft of trade secrets," said a foreign ministry spokesman, Hong Lei, at a news briefing. "What the United States should do now is withdraw its indictment."

The Ministry of Defense warned that the U.S. accusations would chill gradually warming relations between the two militaries.

"The United States, by this action, betrays its commitment to building healthy, stable, reliable military-to-military relations and causes serious damage to mutual trust," it said.

Despite the pointed language, damage to U.S.-Chinese relations is likely to be limited, with little change in trade or military links, because Beijing realizes the indictment of the five officers is symbolic, said Shen Dingli, a director of the Center for American Studies at Shanghai's Fudan University. He has close ties to China's foreign policy establishment.

Beijing is unlikely to engage in tit-for-tat retaliation such as issuing its own indictments of American soldiers and probably will go ahead with plans to take part in U.S.-hosted naval exercises next month, Shen said. He said cybersecurity cooperation is likely to be suspended indefinitely, but that should have little impact because the joint group achieved little in its three meetings.

"Political, security and commercial espionage will always happen," Shen said. "The U.S. will keep spying on Chinese companies and leaders, so why can't China do the same?"

The Cabinet's Internet information agency said Chinese networks and websites have been the target of thousands of hacking attacks from computers in the United States.

"The U.S. is the biggest attacker of China's cyber space," Xinhua said, citing a statement by the agency. "The U.S. attacks, infiltrates and taps Chinese networks belonging to governments, institutions, enterprises, universities and major communication backbone networks."

Monday's indictment said the People's Liberation Army officers targeted U.S. makers of nuclear and solar technology, stealing confidential business information, sensitive trade secrets and internal communications. The targets were Alcoa World Alumina, Westinghouse Electric Co., Allegheny Technologies, U.S. Steel Corp., the United Steelworkers Union and SolarWorld.

The Justice Department said the charges should be a national "wake-up call" about cyber intrusions. American authorities have previously announced details of cyberattacks from China but Monday's indictment was the first accusation to name individuals. The Justice Department issued wanted posters with the officer's photos on them.

The new indictment attempts to distinguish spying for national security purposes — which the U.S. admits doing — from economic espionage intended to gain commercial advantage for private companies or industries. Read more

Angelina Jolie Kids Planning Wedding : Angelina Jolie: 'Our kids are planning the wedding'---It seems like Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have been planning their wedding forever, but it may be closer than we realize.

Jolie will grace the cover of People this week, and has started to talk about wedding planning and marrying her best friend. The actress explained that her and Pitt's children — Maddox, 12, Pax, 10, Zahara, 9, Shiloh, 7, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 5 — will be having more input than anyone else on the wedding planning. "We are discussing it with the children and how they imagine it might be," she told People.

"Which is verging on hysterical, how kids envision a wedding." In the interview, Jolie called her children "the wedding planners," and said that means "it's going to be Disney or paintball‚ one or the other!" Although there have been plenty of rumors the couple would be married in the past, they have yet to announce a wedding date or location. Back in 2011, she told Vanity Fair that there was "no secret wedding" being planned.

She also squashed another rumor, saying there would be no more children in their immediate future. "I'm not pregnant. I'm not adopting at the moment," Jolie said at the time. Although both Jolie and Pitt continue to have wildly successful careers, she admits the couple is most concerned with their family before anything else. Read more...

Gosselin Twins The View, They speak! After last week's incredibly awkward and silent Today show appearance, Kate Gosselin's twin daughters Mady and Cara gave Barbara Walters and her View cohosts an actual sit-down interview on Monday, Jan. 20 -- except when their father Jon Gosselin was mentioned.

"What kind of stuff do you do around the house to help your mom?" Sherri Shepherd asked the 13-year-old twins, both seated beside their famous mother, on the set's trademark blue couch. "I don't really do chores… so Cara?" joked Mady as she turned to her sister.

"Okay, well, I unload the dishes," explained Cara, who was dressed in a pink sweater, black tights and brown boots for her appearance. "Mady loads the dishwasher, she does do some work," she said of her sister, who wore a black sweater and tights. Mom Kate, clad in a bright pink sweater, simply nodded her head in response.

"What do you guys like to do?" inquired Whoopi Goldberg. "Tell me -- don't look at her -- pretend she's not here," the comedian continued as she motioned toward Kate, 38.

"If I'm going to be 100 percent honest, I don't like Justin Bieber," Mady said in response. "But I… One Direction," she said, adding that she's a fan of Niall Horan. Unlike her 1D-adoring sister, Cara said that she prefers Demi Lovato's music.

The conversation then took a serious turn to the topic of Kate and Jon Gosselin's bitter and public divorce back in 2009: "When I was in my twenties, my parents went through a divorce," confessed Jenny McCarthy. "It was really hard at age 20, how did you guys handle watching your parents go through a divorce but also watching it happen in front of everyone?" she asked the girls, who gazed at each other and bursted out into giggles.

"Honestly, it wasn't hard for us," responded Mady. "I think it was harder for you, definitely" she said as she turned to her mom. "It didn't really affect me and we still saw both parents… we were little, we were like 8 or 9." Mady continued, "We knew what was going on, but we didn't see the stuff…"

Her mother then interjected, "I kept them sheltered and yeah, it's necessary and it drew the nine of us closer." Kate explained, "There's really nothing off limits we don't talk about. Clearly there's hard times and strange discussions, and probably not preferable things, but we're very open and the girls hang out in my room with me every night."

Walters then prodded, "To have six younger brothers and sisters, that's not easy. Tell us about that." The girls shrugged their shoulders and smiled while Kate turned to Mady and said, "You've waited your whole life for this question."

Mady quipped, "You ruined my dramatic silence!" while the audience erupted in claps and cheers. "They're annoying," she admitted of her younger siblings -- sextuplets Alexis, Hannah, Aaden, Collin, Leah, and Joel, 9, while Cara chimed, "they are annoying" in agreement. Mady also revealed that the family still keeps in touch with TLC crew members from her family's hit show, Jon & Kate Plus 8, which ended in 2011, and they still want to remain on television.

Although most of the discussion remained lively and animated, the two became tongue-tied once again when their father Jon, 36, was mentioned Monday. "Do you see your father, too?" asked Walters.

"Um," responded Mady as she gave her mother an uncomfortable smile as she shrugged her shoulders.

"Answer," prodded Kate. Both daughters gave their mother the same uncomfortable blank stares from the Today show last week during a sit-down with Savannah Guthrie. Kate just shrugged her shoulders and made a face in response.

While their dad has yet to address their latest live TV interview, Kate happily tweeted after The View appearance: "Thx 2 all the awesome ladies of The View for your warm welcome! So much fun!"

Robin Thicke Mystery Woman, The singer, who has been married to Paula Patton since 2005, apparently had a good time partying at Paris’ Club 79.

Robin Thicke apparently blurred the lines between married and single while enjoying a night of partying in Paris with Kanye West.

Thicke, who has a 3-year-old son with his wife Paula Patton, was seen cozying up to a mystery woman on the dance floor at Paris’ Club 79.

The "Blurred Lines" singer, 36, who has been married to actress Paula Patton since 2005, was photographed getting really close to a pretty young girl on the dance floor at a night club.
In some pictures Thicke, just appears to be enjoying some hot and heavy dancing. But in others, the singer looks like he’s leaning all the way in for a lip-lock with his female companion.

Thicke and Patton have been married since 2005. The ‘Mission Impossible’ actress previously said she wasn’t bothered by her husband’s racy VMAs performance with Miley Cyrus in August.

In September a woman named Lana Scolaro claimed Thicke cheated on his wife with her at a New York nightclub.
"His hands were everywhere. He was grabbing me. He was like, 'I want to get you into bed!'" she said.
Scolaro said things did not go any further because the two were repeatedly interrupted.
Last August, when the soulful singer landed in hot water over his controversial MTV Video Music Awards' performance with Miley Cyrus, Patton stood by her man saying she wasn't fazed by their racy performance.
Thicke also has claimed that he wrote "Blurred Lines" about his wife, saying that Patton, 38, is actually the "good girl" that he sings about.
The "Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol" actress has a 3-year-old son, Julian Fuego, with Thicke.

Beyonce Jay Z Grammys, After some speculation last week, Beyonce has been confirmed to be taking the GRAMMY Awards stage on Sunday night (Jan. 26), alongside hubby Jay Z.

The appearance was confirmed in a commercial that aired on CBS on Sunday (Jan. 19), listing the married couple among the performers of the upcoming ceremony. Taylor Swift, Lorde, Macklemore & Ryan Lewis, Daft Punk, Paul McCartney, Katy Perry and Kendrick Lamar are among the many other performers taking the stage at the Staples Center in Los Angeles next weekend.

The GRAMMY Awards has yet to announce the latest lineup additions, and whether or not Bey and Jay will collaborate onstage. Although Jay Z pops up on his wife's latest hit single, "Drunk In Love," the rapper is also entering the upcoming GRAMMY Awards with nine nominations, including Best Rap Album for last year's "Magna Carta... Holy Grail."

On Friday, the Los Angeles Times reported that Beyonce and Madonna would be making surprise appearances at the 56th GRAMMY Awards on Sunday night. Madonna has yet to be formally added to the bill.

Beyonce's upcoming GRAMMY moment will mark the singer's first televised performance since the launch of her self-titled fifth album last month. Current sales for "Beyonce" stand at 1.5 million, according to Nielsen SoundScan.

Bowman Injury, San Francisco 49ers linebacker NaVorro Bowman has the sympathy of everyone who saw his horrific injury in a loss to Seattle in Sunday's NFC championship game.

He will also have compassion from those who will eventually hear about it, and it will go down as one of the most unfortunately notable injuries in NFL history.

The Seattle Seahawks faced third-and-10 in the fourth quarter when quarterback Russell Wilson threw a short pass to Jermaine Kearse. Bowman stripped Kearse, but the receiver was pushed into Bowman's left leg by safety Eric Reid. Unfortunately, for Bowman, his leg continued to bend the wrong way, and it became apparent the linebacker had sustained a horrendous injury.

To make matters worse, Bowman clearly recovered the fumble, but officials ruled otherwise. Seattle did recover, mostly because Bowman was lying on the ground in pain and the ball was wrestled out of his hands, but it should have been San Francisco’s possession.

Fortunately for the officials, who would have been ripped for that call, on the next play Wilson gave running back Marshawn Lynch a bad handoff, which resulted in a fumble and a 49ers recovery on fourth-and-1.

After his injury, Bowman was carted off to the locker room. Hopefully for the 49ers' spectacular linebacker, his injury was not as bad as it looked.

“I commend Target for offering credit monitoring to all of its customers, and strongly encourage any affected Virginia customers to take advantage of the monitoring, regardless of whether suspicious activity has appeared on their accounts,” Herring said in a press release issued Friday.  “Consumers should also be vigilant and change their PIN numbers and passwords if they have not already done so.  My office is going to work to help ensure Virginians are protected in this matter.”

Target has 57 retail stores in Virginia, including one in Christiansburg. The retailer says hackers accessed credit and debit card data; customer names, phone numbers, mail and email addresses, and PIN numbers of about 70 million of its customers.

Schwarzenegger Super Bowl, Arnold Schwarzenegger may be an action movie icon, but as the hilarious teasers for his upcoming Bud Light Super Bowl ad show, he can yuck it up with the best of them.

“Surprise,” the actor says in one of the two teaser clips released over the weekend, and he’s right because it’s unlikely that anyone expected him take on the guise of a passionate ping-pong player when word of his involvement in the beer company’s ad came out.

In the two videos, Schwarzenegger wears a track jacket, short shorts and a golden wig reminiscent of his hair in 1982’s “Conan the Barbarian.” Not exactly the get-up you’d expect to see the star of “Terminator” and “Total Recall” wearing.
Schwarzenegger’s comical appearance and his equally bizarre warm-up routine may at first seem absurd, they are also the perfect complement to the beer’s new tagline, ”The Perfect Beer for Whatever Happens.”

While Bud Light may not mesh with Schwarzenegger’s lifelong championing of health and fitness, the star — who up until now has abstained from much commercial work in the US — is receiving a sizable paycheck for the gig. Page Six reported on Friday that the actor is being paid $3 million for the ad.

In addition to the Schwarzenegger clips, the company also released videos featuring comedian Reggie Watts, actor Don Cheadle and a llama. While those are the only personalities confirmed for the ads so far, the company has promised five celebrity cameos for the ad.
