BOSTON (AP) -- Two bombs exploded in the crowded streets near the finish line of the Boston Marathon on Monday, killing three people and injuring more than 130 in a bloody scene of shattered glass and severed limbs that raised alarms that terrorists might have struck again in the U.S.
A White House official speaking on condition of anonymity because the investigation was still unfolding said the attack was being treated as an act of terrorism.
President Barack Obama vowed that those responsible will "feel the full weight of justice."
A senior U.S. intelligence official said two other bombs were found near the end of the 26.2-mile course in what appeared to be a well-coordinated attack.

Mindy
McCready, a country singer better known recently for her ongoing personal
troubles than for her string of late-'90s hits, died Sunday of an apparent
self-inflicted gunshot wound at her Arkansas home, the Cleburne County sheriff
said.
Sheriff Marty Moss said his office received a call to the McCready home
around 3:30 p.m. local time in Heber Springs, Ark., west of Memphis and north of
Little Rock. "Ms. McCready is deceased from what appears to be a
self-inflicted gunshot wound,'' Moss told USA TODAY. more...!
Mark Balelo, an auction house owner who appeared on the A&E reality series "Storage Wars," was found dead on Monday at his workplace, authorities told the Ventura County Star, two days after he was arrested on suspicion of possessing a controlled substance.
The Ventura County Medical Office would not give a cause of death, the paper said. An autopsy is scheduled to be conducted Tuesday.
Police said Balelo was arrested Saturday in connection with possession of methamphetamine, according to the Star. He was scheduled to appear in court on Feb. 19.

Lady Gaga, unable to walk after an injury she suffered at a show, is pretty "heartsick" about the whole thing.
Mother Monster unleashed a stream of apologetic tweets Tuesday afternoon telling of her synovitis, an inflammation of the joints, that resulted from an injury she's been hiding from her staff and has caused a cancellation of two shows in Chicago, one in Detroit and one in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada.
The singer was left immobile after a concert in Montreal on Monday.
It is unclear what the actual injury is. more...!

(Reuters) - A heavily armed gunman opened fire on school children and staff at a
Connecticut elementary school on Friday, killing 26 people including 18 children
in the latest in a series of shooting rampages that have tormented the United
States this year, U.S. media reported.
The gunman was dead inside Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown,
Connecticut, state police Lieutenant Paul Vance told a news conference. Vance
declined to report casualty figures but CBS News said 18 children and nine
adults were dead, including the shooter. more...!
Korean pop star PSY -- who rose to fame through his YouTube record-breaking video "Gangnam Style" -- apologized Friday for anti-American lyrics he rapped back in 2004.
That performance resurfaced on CNN's iReport and then circulated widely online. It included lyrics calling for the death of American troops serving in Iraq, not long after news of the brutal slaying of a South Korean hostage by Iraqi insurgents -- an incident which sparked anti-American sentiment in South Korea.

Bay-based disc jockey, the DJ’s ex-wife and a New York media group over a sex

discussed during a news conference Monday afternoon near the federal courthouse

1999 film "The Green Mile," died Monday morning at age 54, according
to a representative for his family.

efforts when he had the heart attack. more...!

The 24-year-old Jersey Shore star (real name Nicole Polizzi) is hoping to turn the pregnancy into moneymaking marketing deals, according to the New York Post.
Earlier this month, Snooki shot down Star magazine claims that she was expecting. "Does that mean they're calling me fat?" she asked while talking with Opie and Anthony on Feb. 1. "That means that I have a belly then."

NEW
YORK (Reuters) - Governor Chris Christie of New Jersey vetoed on Monday a
$420,000 film tax credit dubbed the "Snooki Subsidy" for the reality
show "The Jersey Shore," citing the state's budget crunch.
Christie, a longtime critic of the raucous MTV show that offers a less than
flattering portrayal of life in the Garden State, said in a statement the money
would be better spent on "projects that actually benefit the state."
In a letter to the Economic Development Authority, which awarded the hit show
$420,000 in film tax credits, Christie said it was not just a matter of money.
It was personal, too. more...!
LOS
ANGELES (AP) – First, prosecutors showed a photo of Michael Jackson's pale and
lifeless body lying on a gurney. Then, they played a recording of his voice,
just weeks before his death.
Slow and slurred, his words echoed Tuesday through a Los Angeles courtroom at the start of the trial of the doctor accused of killing him. As a worldwide audience watched on TV and Jackson's family looked on from inside the courtroom, a drugged Jackson

Fifteen years ago today, prolific rapper Tupac Shakur died at
age 25 due to complications after a drive-by shooting in Las Vegas.
His slaying, like that of peer Christopher Wallace (a.k.a. Notorious B.I.G.),
remains unsolved. Over the last 15 years, theories about who gunned down the two
have been debated by everyone from law enforcement and scholars to journalists
and fans.
The circumstances of Shakur's death, notwithstanding, there isn't much to pen
about his life, his many troubles with the law or his indelible sonic
contributions to rap that has't already been written. A robust posthumous
catalog has cemented Shakur's musical legacy and continued to inspire new
generations of rappers who hold his "thug life" brand of wayward
teaching close to their chests as they hope to glean an ounce of Shakur's swag. more...!
