Vice President Joe Biden apologized to President Obama for endorsing same-sex marriage on “Meet the Press” on Sunday, putting pressure on his boss to formally weighed in on the issue days later. “The President has been the leader on this issue from day one and the Vice President never intended to distract from that,” Kendra Barkoff, Biden’s press secretary said in statement, NBC News reported. Biden spoke to the President in the Oval Office before Obama announced his support for same-sex marriage in an interview with ABC News. In that interview, he said he wasn’t angry with Biden, but he thought the vice president had gotten “a little bit over his skis” by publicly taking on the issue ahead of Obama. “Would I have preferred to have done this in my own way, in my own terms, without I think, there being a lot of notice to everybody? Sure,” he said. “But all’s well that ends well.”NBC Miami

Rihanna finally did something that makes sense — she unfollowed Chris Brown on Twitter. According to Gossip Cop, the 24-year-old singer hit the unfollow button on her ex-boyfriend after he seemingly dissed her in his remix of Kanye West’s “Way Too Cold” (formerly “Theraflu”). On Wednesday Brown posted a remix of the song, in which he raps, “Don’t f–k with my old bitches/like a bad fur/every industry n—a done had her/trick or treat like a pumpkin/ just to smash her.” Not long after the remix hit the web, Rihanna stopped following the 23-year-old R&B singer on Twitter. Brown seems to get the message that Rihanna was seriously offended by his words, and in true Chris Brown fashion went on the defensive on Twitter: Assumptions! I didn’t say any names so if u took offense to it then its something you feel guilty about. The singer then unfollowed Rihanna from his Twitter. While it may sound like an insignificant exchange, there’s a long history that makes it so much more. After Brown’s brutal 2009 assault on Rihanna, which left her bruised and bloodied, many were outraged when the singer decided to follow him on Twitter again in 2011. At the time, one fan tweeted:  Verified RihannaNavy @iStan4Rihanna_   @rihanna I never thought you would go back to him! You better not, its your life but you do have ppl that look up to you. e.g young girls Rihanna responded, telling fans it wasn’t a big deal: “Its f–kin twitter, not the alter! Calm down,” she tweeted back. Similarly, many were outraged again after Rihanna sang on Brown’s “Turn Up The Music” and he sang on her “Birthday Cake” remix. But it’s evident Rihanna doesn’t care what anyone thinks. HuffPost

Esto se lo cuentas a un cojo y le crece el pelo. El tema de las modificaciones corporales está llegando a unos límites que podríamos denominar. Después de los tatuajes y los piercings una de las modas en este sentido ha sido la de introducir objetos metálicos en el cuerpo de manera que abulten bajo la piel e incluso lleguen a sobresalir. Dave Urban le ha dado una utilidad a estos adornos epidérmicos. Los suyos son magnéticos, están ubicados en la muñeca y le permiten llevar en iPod Nano a modo de reloj de pulsera sin necesidad de correa. Te mostramos un vídeo a continuación. Este es uno más de esos casos en los que resulta inevitable pronunciar la habitual fórmula de precaución y/o advertencia: chicos, no hagáis esto en casa. Cuatro pequeños imanes en la muñeca de Dave Urban le van a ahorrar una lana en correas y pulseras varias para poder llevar su reproductor de MP3 a pelo. Puestos a modificarse el cuerpo, al menos que la cosa tenga su utilidad práctica, además de la puramente estética.El problema llegará cuando el año que viene (o este, o dentro de dos…) en Apple decidan rediseñar el iPod Nano y la ubicación de los imanes ya no coincida con el tamaño del dispositivo. Momento Nelson a la vista. Puede ser el único applefan que no albergue la secreta ilusión por la aparición de un nuevo modelo.

No hay dudas de que Bruce Willis está disfrutando haberse convertido en padre nuevamente a sus 57 años. Emma Heming-Willis, esposa del actor, publicó en su perfil de Facebook una foto de Bruce sosteniendo en sus brazos a su adorable hija Mabel que apenas tiene un mes de haber nacido. Sí, hermosa… Pero otro rudo del cine también nos ablandó el corazón enseñándonos a su pequeño bebé. “Un hermoso día en Budapest con los dos amores de mi vida. Papa y Mabel riéndose juntos” escribió Heming para acompañar la enternecedora imagen.

Willis no es solo bueno persiguiendo a maleantes, desactivando bombas o escapando de situaciones imposibles. Del talento que Bruce tiene como padre no nos queda la menos duda. El actor fue de gran ayuda para su ex esposa, Demi Moore, cuando entró a rehabilitación, y veló por sus hijas. E Online

George Clooney played the suave host, Chef Wolfgang Puck whipped up something for dinner, and President Barack Obama and about 150 of his Hollywood set donors enjoyed a few laughs at Clooney’s good humored expense. Obama reminded the crowd that his famed Hope poster from the 2008 was derived from a photograph of Obama sitting next to Clooney when Obama was a U.S. senator.  Clooney had been in Washington advocating on behalf of Darfur.’This is the first time that George Clooney has been photo-shopped out of a picture,’ Obama said.   ‘Never happened before, never happen again.’ In this crowd, Obama didn’t even need to mention gay marriage to get a vigorous applause. ‘Obviously,’ the president said obliquely, ‘yesterday we made some news.’ The event, held under a stretched transparent tent outside Clooney’s sprawling tudor-styled canyon home that he bought about 20 years ago from Fleetwood Mac singer Stevie Nicks, raised nearly $15million, a record for a single fundraiser. The guests paid $40,000 to attend, accounting for about $6 million of the evening’s financial haul for Obama’s campaign and the Democratic Party. 

Federal authorities said Wednesday that they plan to sue Arizona sheriff Joe Arpaio and his office over allegations of civil rights violations, including the racial profiling of Latinos. The U.S. Justice Department has been seeking an agreement requiring Arpaio’s office to train officers in how to make constitutional traffic stops, collect data on people arrested in traffic stops and reach out to Latinos to assure them that the department is there to also protect them. Arpaio has denied the racial profiling allegations and has claimed that allowing a court monitor would mean that every policy decision would have to be cleared through an observer and would nullify his authority. DOJ officials told a lawyer for Arpaio on April 3 that the lawman’s refusal of a court-appointed monitor was a deal-breaker that would end settlement negotiations and result in a federal lawsuit. The “notice of intent to file civil action” came Wednesday from Assistant U.S. Attorney General Thomas Perez in a letter to an Arpaio lawyer. Perez, who heads the DOJ’s civil rights division, noted that it’s been more than 100 days since the sheriff’s office received the DOJ’s findings report and federal authorities haven’t met with the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office counsel since Feb. 6 to discuss the terms of a consent agreement. At a news conference Wednesday afternoon, Arpaio defended himself in the face of the pending lawsuit. “If they sue, we’ll go to court. And then we’ll find out the real story,” he said. “There’s lots of miscommunication emanating from Washington. They broke off communications. “They’re telling me how to run my organization. I’d like to get this resolved, but I’m not going to give up my authority to the federal government. It’s as simple as that,” Arpaio added. HuffPost

Fed up with their neighbour’s antics, people who have been driven round the bend by a boy racer’s inconsiderate driving have taken matters into their own hands. They hoisted 24-year-old Zbigniew Filo’s car into a willow tree in Lubczyna, Poland, shaming into promising to change the way he drives. Locals are keeping tight-lipped over who put the Ford Escort into the tree, but have admitted that one of the villager’s mobile cranes was borrowed to carry out the mission under the cover of darkness. Police spokesman Marta Pierko said: ‘We received a call from a man saying his car was stuck in a tree, and that his neighbours had put it there. ‘After inspecting the site we instructed him to remove it from the tree,’ she added. One local added: ‘Whoever, or whatever it was, it’s probably a good thing as he was a dangerous driver and could have killed someone. ‘Perhaps he’ll think twice about his hair-raising driving and about getting a licence or who knows where his next car might end up?’ Now shamefaced Filo has promised to change his driving style. ‘I get the message, but I think it was a bit harsh,’ he said.

Furious parents today demanded school bosses take action against a teacher who posted a picture showing him being spanked by a female student on Facebook. Arts teacher Bill Doyle, from San Diego, put the picture on the social networking site where it was found by a parent of one of his students. The anonymous parent had decided to research Mr Doyle after ‘hearing students talk about him doing inappropriate things’, 10News.comreports. Parents of children at San Diego School of Creative and Performing Arts have voiced concern over the picture which shows Mr Doyle bent over with a smiling, young brunette spanking him. Local parent activist Sally Smith, said: ‘Photos of teachers interacting in this way are totally inappropriate. ‘For years, I’ve been raising this issue with San Diego Unified, but I’ve gotten nowhere. These issues continue to come up and many parents are very upset that there isn’t more accountability for this type of teacher misconduct.’ She added that communication between teachers and students should be restricted to the school networks and that contact on social networks should be prohibited.
