Expert Asphyxia likely killed actor Carradine
The private pathologist who examined David Carradine's body says Thai authorities have determined the actor died of asphyxia and so far, he agrees.
Dr. Michael Baden (BAH'-dun) of New York says his examination of the "Kung Fu" star's body and the details he's receive from Bangkok are consistent with an asphyxiation death. He conducted a second autopsy on Carradine's body at the family's request.
Carradine was found dead in a hotel in the Thai capitol on June 4.
Baden also says he can't yet say whether Carradine died accidentally or was killed. He says he's waiting for...
LA high school featured in Bruno leaves district
A high school that was the location for a racy photo shoot by Sacha Baron Cohen\'s character \"Bruno\" has broken away from the nation\'s second-largest school district.
Birmingham High School in Los Angeles had already been planning to become a separate charter school before Wednesday\'s decision.
The move came one day after officials with the Los Angeles Unified School District disciplined two administrators over violating the district\'s policy on using the school\'s name in the film.
The charter proposal ends the district\'s authority over school employees, so the...

Analysis Why do politicians cheat?
What is it with philandering politicians?
Why do men in power _ the ones on pedestals _ think they are above us and can get away with cheating on their spouses, particularly when media scrutiny is so intense and peccadilloes are arguably more politically damaging?
There\'s a long list of those who thought they could jet off to Argentina, or cruise on the Monkey Business, or check into a hotel under an assumed name or use an escort service and never get caught, never have to come clean.
The names quickly come to mind _ South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford, Sen. John Ensign,...

French investigators release report on Flight 447 By Otavio de Souza (AP)
French investigators on Thursday will present their initial findings into what caused Air France Flight 447 to drop out of the sky in the middle of the Atlantic a month ago, prompting one of history's most challenging plane crash investigations.
The Airbus A330-200 plane flying from Rio de Janeiro to Paris went down with 228 people on board in a remote area of the Atlantic, 930 miles (1,500 kilometers) off Brazil's mainland and far from radar coverage.
A burst of automated messages emitted by the plane before it fell gave rescuers only a vague location to begin their search, which has failed to locate the plane's black boxes. The chances of finding the flight recorders are falling as the signals they emit fade. Without them, the full causes of the tragic accident may never be known.
The French air accident investigation agency, the BEA, will present its preliminary report to journalists at its headquarters in Le Bourget, outside Paris. Read More...
