<p>Actor Corey Feldman appeared on <em>Larry King Live</em> Wednesday night to talk about Corey Haim, his best friend who died earlier that day.  He expressed his frustration during the interview about how the media is speculating that his death was caused by an overdose of drugs.</p>
<p>The 38-year-old said that people should stop jumping the gun, saying that Haim died from an overdose and making up other theories as to how it happened.  He added that they won&#8217;t know the cause of death until after the coroner&#8217;s report comes out, along with the toxicology results and specific evidence proving the cause.</p>
<p>Haim passed away at about 2:15am (PT) on Wednesday after suffering flu-like symptoms for 2 days.  He was taking over-the-counter and prescription medications for it, as well as other prescriptions as part of his sobriety program.  There weren&#8217;t any illicit drugs found in his apartment by police, which can only mean that the an overdose was caused by the combination of medications he was taking and was unintentional.</p>
<p>Also during the interview, Feldman told King that he was shocked about Haim&#8217;s death, as they had only talked 3 or 4 days ago.  He was actually getting advice from his friend about something he was upset about, which he says Haim was being very positive about.  Feldman also mentioned that the two were in talks for filming a sequel to <em>License to Drive</em>, which would have been a trilogy starring the two.</p>
<p>Feldman also appeared on <em>The Early Show</em> Thursday morning.  There he said again that he doesn&#8217;t believe Haim died from an intentional overdose.</p>

<p>On Wednesday, Corey Haim was pronounced dead at Providence St. Joseph Medical Center at about 2:15am PT.  He was only 38 years old.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s believed that the former 1980s teen actor died from a drug overdose, as he was taking prescription and over-the-counter drugs, according to police.  He had been having flu-like symptoms for two days before his death, which is why he was taking the medications.</p>
<p>However, the coroner in LA is doing an autopsy to determine the official cause of death.  It will take at least a month before the toxicology results come back.</p>
<p>Late Tuesday night, Haim was at his apartment, which he shared with his mom, when he fell to his knees after becoming dizzy.  His mother heard the commotion and helped him get back in bed, but then he was unresponsive.  According to police, she called paramedics at about 1am.</p>
<p>Haim was widely known for having trouble with drug addiction earlier in his life, but his agent, Mark Heaslip says that he had been clean.  Authorities also didn&#8217;t find any illicit drugs at his apartment - only 4 prescription medications.  Heaslip thinks that there was a reaction between the prescriptions for the flu-like symptoms, the over-the-counter drugs, as well as the medications he was taking as part of his sobriety program.  He added that his death is a total shock, and the former actor&#8217;s mother is very shaken.</p>
<p>The most popular movie Haim was in was the 1987 movie <em>The Lost Boys</em>, where he played a teen whose brother turned into a vampire.  He appeared in the film next to Corey Feldman, whom he did 8 other films with and a television series.</p>

<p>Last week the rumor was that Cheryl Cole was going to meet husband Ashley for a counselling session to give the footballer a chance to talk about their situation and tell his side of the story - not to mention try to get back in the singer&#8217;s good graces.  However, the rumor now is that Ashley wants their divorce to be taken care of and over by the summer.</p>
<p>Just a couple weeks ago Cheryl was the one rumored to want a quickie divorce.  A source said that she had been giving that signal to her friends.  Now it looks as though the feeling is mutual.</p>
<p>According to a source, the Chelsea player wants the divorce complete so soon, because he wants to be able to concentrate more on the World Cup.  There&#8217;s isn&#8217;t much hope left that he and Cheryl will work it out this time, the insider said, and he&#8217;s told his buddies that he can feel their marriage is over.</p>
<p>The couple hasn&#8217;t seen each other in nearly a month, since allegations of Ashley&#8217;s unfaithfulness were published by a newspaper - he had been sending naked pictures and explicit text messages to a model.  After those photos were leaked to media, 3 other women told tabloids that they had previously slept with him while he was either dating or married to Cheryl.</p>
<p>The insider still says that there is a glimmer of hope that Cheryl and Ashley will try to fight for their love.  They think that it&#8217;s still possible for them to change their mind when they meet to discuss the divorce, because it will be the first time they have talked about it face-to-face.  The source says that they are suppose to meet sometime this week, but that&#8217;s not set in stone.</p>

<p>A 33-year-old British, 2-time convicted sex offender posed as a male teenager on Facebook in order to lure a 17-year-old college girl from her home.  He then raped and killed Ashleigh Hall on October 25, 2009.</p>
<p>Peter Chapman uploaded a picture of a bare-chested, good looking teenager on the social network site.  The friends of Hall say that she didn&#8217;t get attention from guys, although she was interested in them, so it&#8217;s very likely that she became an easy target after being flattered by the attention from the man.</p>
<p>After the two connected on Facebook, their chats moved to MSN messaging and another website, Tagged.com.  Hall also gave Chapman her mobile phone number, and they were communicating through text messages.</p>
<p>Prosecutor Graham Reeds says that it was apparent that Chapman was obsessed with sex and trying to meet with Hall from the beginning.  He didn&#8217;t make it to their first meeting at a park after thinking that she wouldn&#8217;t get in the car with him when she saw that he wasn&#8217;t the same person in the Facebook photo, so he devised a plan to tell her that his dad would pick her up from her house.</p>
<p>Hall agreed to the plan, and Chapman picked her up.  Afterward he took her to a dark, secluded lay-by, where he made her have oral sex with him.  Then he bound her forearms and gagged her with tape before raping her.  After the act he wrapped more tape around her head to suffocate and kill her before dumping her body close to a cafe.</p>
<p>Chapman was stopped by police after returning to the scene.  He had been evading police for over a year, because he had failed to notify them about a change of address, a violation of his Sex Offenders&#8217; Register order.  After being taken in, he admitted that an accident occurred and wrote a 9 page account of his story - which was a bunch of lies, according to authorities.</p>
<p>After finding key evidence in Chapman&#8217;s car that he killed Hall (including her phone), he was forced to confess to everything.  He has now been sentenced to a minimum of 35 years to life.</p>

<p>The Human Barbie, who&#8217;s real name is Sarah Burge, has admitted that she helped Hannah, her 15-year-old daughter, become the youngest woman to use Botox in the UK.  The 49-year-old mother appears to believe that holding back the years is the key to everything.</p>
<p>The Real-Life-Barbie, which is how she promotes herself, has had more than 50 plastic surgeries amounting to £50,000.  Now that her daughter has achieved the record of the youngest to use Botox, Sarah is very happy.  It&#8217;s said that Hannah wanted to do this so that she didn&#8217;t look haggard by time she turned 25.</p>
<p>However, Hannah has been using Botox injections for a little while now, and has now had 3 injections at the age of 16.  Her mother administered 2 of the injections herself, as she is now an expert in the field, as well as a trained aesthetic practitioner.  Allowing her daughter to get Botox injections isn&#8217;t the only shocking revelation the nation has had about her though.</p>
<p>Apparently the Human Barbie of a mom advertises her own service for organizing sex parties, which she has confirmed.  She has a raunchy website and calls herself Madame Pink.  She has parties for both singles and couples - anyone that wants an erotic atmosphere.  The parties are described on the website as high profile and glamorous, and she charges £500 an hour to be whatever her customers want her to be.  There&#8217;s even a satisfaction guarantee.</p>
<p>Sarah also includes some naughty confessions on her site, saying that her sexual appetite started when she was still in school and describing that she became a lesbian, filthy and a girl who was wanted by all men to play with through the boredom of classes.  What a great role model for a teenager!!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As public and private sector workers throughout the country endure pay freezes and pay cuts the news that as of April 1<sup>st</sup> MPs will receive a 1.5 percent salary increase is likely to cause some degree of anger. MP&#8217;s wages will automatically increase by nearly £1,000 to £65,737.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The Senior Salaries Revue Body which is in charge of minister&#8217;s salaries automatically calculates the level of pay increases by comparing the increases of fifteen other public sector groups.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Officials at Downing Street have recognised that following revelations about minister&#8217;s expenses and the present state of the economy it might not be such good PR to accept the pay rise. A spokesperson for the Prime Minister has announced that government ministers will not accept the salary increase and that Gordon Brown was well aware of the need to cut back on the price of politics in order to buoy the public&#8217;s confidence.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>John Bercow, the Common&#8217;s Speaker was made aware of the 1.5 percent increase in minister&#8217;s pay at the end of February when Bill Cockburn, chairman of the Senior Salaries Revue Body informed him that the pay rise was due to come into effect at the beginning of April.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The Tories have also announced that if they take power at the next election then a one-year pay freeze will apply to all public servants whose salaries are more that £18,000 per annum.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>At the end of last year Chancellor Alistair Darling announced that there would be a pay freeze imposed upon senior managers in the NHS, GPs and top civil servants.</p>

<p>It&#8217;s been reported that Cheryl Cole has agreed to go to counselling with Ashley, her cheating Chelsea football player of a husband, starting as soon as next week.  This news comes only a week after the Girls Aloud singer&#8217;s spokesman confirmed speculation that she would be seeking a divorce.</p>
<p>No one was down on Cheryl for wanting a divorce, because she has such good reasons&#8230;4 of them actually.  She had only just forgiven Ashley and gotten over the first woman he slept with, and then 4 more came along saying that he had cheated on her with them.  One of the women he only sent explicit texts and nude photos to, while he had sex with 2 of the others while he and Cheryl have been married.  The fourth woman had sex with him in 2004, the same night Ashley and Cheryl publicly announced their relationship.</p>
<p>So we all thought that a divorce was swiftly on the way, but then reports started claiming that Cheryl has agreed to give Ashley the opportunity to talk about his issues through therapy.  Apparently he&#8217;s been begging for her not leave him, but what&#8217;s worse is that she&#8217;s starting to partially blame herself for their ruined marriage of 3-and-a-half years.  Of course, she didn&#8217;t start to think about that until after Ashley started saying it.</p>
<p>Well, if he&#8217;s right about anything it&#8217;s the fact that he wasn&#8217;t the only one who helped to collapse the marriage&#8230;those 4 women were a big part of that.  Ashley is only trying to get his way, and Cheryl should just end the madness before it gets any worse.  And we&#8217;ve seen worse before.  His name is Tiger Woods.</p>

<p>The Royal Air Force (RAF) dispatched planes on Tuesday to investigate an American Airlines flight, where a female passenger was trying to gain access to the flight deck.  Just shortly before 11am, the aircraft landed at Heathrow Airport, and police boarded the flight to arrest the woman.</p>
<p>Reports indicate that the woman became agitated on the flight and looked like she was going into a panic attack - it&#8217;s been said that she has recently lost a family member.  She was allegedly trying to break into the cockpit multiple times, so the pilot requested a priority approach to the runway as a precaution, as the incident alarmed him.</p>
<p>Soon after, the Royal Air Force dispatched Typhoon planes from RAF Coningsby to fly alongside the American Airlines plane as a routine action.  A Ministry of Defence spokeswoman says that the jets didn&#8217;t escort the plane to the airport like previously reported, but had broken away while flying over Oxfordshire.</p>
<p>The Boeing 767-300 was carrying 161 passengers and 12 crew members.  The cabin crew is reported to have eventually calmed the woman before touching down at the airport.  Then police officers boarded the flight and arrested her on suspicion of violating the Aviation Act on grounds of endangering the plane.  She was taken to the police station in Heathrow, where they kept her in custody.</p>
<p>A spokesman for the airline, said that the pilot didn&#8217;t call for the RAF to officially take action, and they don&#8217;t know if he even knew the Typhoons were there.  However, the spokesman confirmed the incident happened.</p>

<p>Sony warned millions of PlayStation 3 owners not to use their consoles on Monday while they tried to fix a huge bug in the software that started affecting consoles worldwide on Sunday afternoon.  The group said that the newest slim version of the system didn&#8217;t appear to be having a problem.  It seems that the problem was fixed sometime on Monday, but Sony didn&#8217;t officially confirm that they fixed whatever it was.</p>
<p>On the older versions of the PS3, the systems were frozen and crashed.  The date on the consoles was reset to January 2000 and it couldn&#8217;t be changed.  Players were immediately logged out of the online PlayStation Network when they turned on their systems.  Gamers weren&#8217;t able to play offline games either.</p>
<p>These were all problems that the company believed was due to a bug in the system clock that could cause many possible errors.  While they were fixing the issue, Sony advised gamers on their blog not to play the system until the problem was solved, which they hoped would be in only 24 hours.  They noted that the bug could cause online trophies obtained to not be recorded, and this data couldn&#8217;t be restored.</p>
<p>This was the biggest problem reported for the PS3 so far and could be a setback.  The system has sold more than 30 million units worldwide, but due to the high price tag, it has struggled in sales compared to the Nintendo Wii and XBOX 360.  It wasn&#8217;t until August of last year that sales boosted slightly after they released the new slim version and cut the price to $299.  One good thing that Sony has going for them, though, is the fact that the PlayStation 3 has been more reliable than the XBOX 360.</p>

<p>Stoke City defender Ryan Shawcross has unfortunately been headlined in the news over the weekend after a challenge on Aaron Ramsey caused the Arsenal midfielder&#8217;s leg to break on Saturday.  After the incident, Shawcross left the field crying and Ramsey was taken to the hospital, where he underwent surgery.</p>
<p>Shawcross has been widely criticized, as it was felt by many that the tackle was malicious.  However, it was ruled that the injury wasn&#8217;t intentional, and Shawcross was making an attempt to play the ball.  Despite the criticism, the defender&#8217;s teammates have been giving him support, saying that Shawcross wasn&#8217;t intentionally trying to hurt Ramsey, yet the injury is unfortunate.</p>
<p>Shawcross is also being fully backed by England manager Fabio Capello, who has also added the defender to his lineup in the match on Wednesday against Egypt at Wembley.  Reports claimed that the footballer was hesitant to joint the team on Sunday, as he was very distraught over the incident from the day before.  However, after Potters manager Tony Pulis gave him a pep talk, the defender was seen at England&#8217;s Hertfordshire base that night.  The senior defenders for the team - Ledley King, Jonathan Woodgate and Rio Ferdinand - have been absent because of injuries.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, Arsenal posted a statement on their website confirming that Ramsey&#8217;s surgery successfully reduced the fractures to his fibula and tibia.  However, they said that the midfielder will be out for the rest of the season, while some reports say he could be out for a whole year.  The website statement also wished him a speedy recovery and return.</p>
