Here are today’s top stories in no particular order:
- India has lifted its ban on gay sex. But only to those 18 and older and living in New Delhi.
- South Carolina has found that there was no misuse of state funds in Mark Sanford’s love affair scandal. Just misuse of better judgment.
- The Jackson saga goes on, with a raging custody battle, fights over funds, and rumors of drug abuse, but perhaps most importantly, his memorial service will be held at the Staples Center in LA on Tuesday.
- Vice President Joe Biden has arrived in Iraq to visit U.S. troops, two days after all American combat troops were removed.
- A 13-year-old girl committed suicide in fall 2006 after her "rival’s" mother started harassing her on MySpace. A federal judge overturned the misdemeanor ruling against the "cyberbully" today. Because bullies need more opportunities to ruin middle schoolers’ lives. Literally.
