We all know Utah's home to some extremely conservative and buttoned up religious zealots. Remember the girl at BYU who received a note from a male student chastising her for dressing immorally? Well, now comes a story about a parent who was called to his daughter's junior high school in Tooele, Utah for his daughter's "inappropriate clothing."
E. L. James' trilogy "Fifty Shades of Grey" continues to create buzz almost a full year after its release.

Packers wide-out and Super Bowl Champion Donald Driver has another trophy to add to his resume as he and Peta "Heavens to" Murgatroyd won the final battle on 'Dancing With the Stars' last night.

There are entire websites dedicated to parenting fails and while most appear to be harmless, some make you question just how long the victimized kid will live in such a dangerous environment. Take this video of a couple parents who put their kid in a washing machine at the laundromat as a way to teach him a lesson. Seems like a funny prank at first, but then the auto lock system kicks in and everyone starts to freak out. (Note: this video may be too intense for some viewers.)
Most high school seniors struggle with choosing a quote for their picture in the yearbook. After all, it's like a tattoo in its permanence and painfulness to remove. Some kids opt for the philosophical, others inspirational, while the most regretful select something so dated, it causes violent flashbacks when read. Then, there are the comical quotes.
When media maven Larry King announced he'd be retiring in 2010, many thought he'd ride off into the sunset and live out his "golden years" out of the spotlight.

'The Simpsons' decided to put all their chips on the "mother monster," Lady Gaga.
