Elvis Presley impersonators are to be invited to the music icon's Graceland mansion in Memphis, Tennessee for the first official tribute artist contest.

The competition - to run over several days next August - coincides with the 30th anniversary of Presley's death.

O'Reilly recently on The Factor:

Shamefully, the Fox Broadcasting Unit is set to carry the program, which is simply indefensible, and a low point in American culture. For the record, Fox Broadcasting has nothing to do with the Fox News Channel."

Radar contacted spokespeople for both Fox News Channel and Fox Television Stations via e-mail for comment. Conveniently they were the same person: Brian Lewis, who said, "Roger [Ailes who chairs both Fox News Channel and Fox Television Stations -mith] has absolutely nothing to do with the programs Fox Broadcasting Corporation broadcasts"—on the television stations for which Ailes is ultimately responsible.

HarperCollins, the publishing house that is paying Simpson a reported $3.5 million for the book in which he fully fleshes out his all-too-real murder scenario, is also owned by Murdoch's News Corp. While O'Reilly excoriated Simpson's publisher and brainstormed legal options against it with guest litigator Sunny Hostin—she said she would seek to freeze HarperCollins's assets if she were representing Goldman's family—he never mentioned it by name, or pointed out that it's also owned by the people who cut his paychecks.

Surely, Judith Regan, who will be conducting the interview with O.J. and whose imprint at HarperCollins is publishing the Simpson book, has nothing to do with Fox News Channel, though. Just ask Fox News bloviator Sean Hannity, whose books Regan publishes. Or Roger Ailes himself, who once gave Regan a show—Judith Regan Tonight—on the Fox News Channel.

"It just didn't taste avocadoey," said Brenda Lifsey, who used Kraft Dips Guacamole in a three-layer dip last year. "I looked at the ingredients and found there was almost no avocado in it."

She is seeking unspecified damages and a Superior Court order barring Kraft from calling its dip guacamole.

COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) -- A fed-up mother had her 12-year-old son arrested for allegedly rummaging through his great-grandmother's things and playing with his Christmas present early.

The mother called police Sunday after learning her son had disobeyed orders and repeatedly taken a Game Boy from its hiding place at his great-grandmother's house next door and played it. He was arrested on petty larceny charges, taken to the police station in handcuffs and held until his mother picked him up after church.

The Soviet dictator Josef Stalin ordered the creation of Planet of the Apes-style warriors by crossing humans with apes, according to recently uncovered secret documents.

In July, Chinese president Hu Jintao called for greater measures to tackle the wealth gap.

The divide has accelerated as market forces exert a greater control over the economy, which grew at 11.3% in the second quarter of 2006.

Members of a Belgian lottery syndicate who thought they had won 27m euros were dealt a huge blow when they found their winning numbers had not been entered.
For weeks the group of 30 players had been using the same combination for the EuroMillions jackpot.

They were overjoyed when it matched the winning numbers in Friday's draw.

But the group of friends were crushed when it turned out the person charged with buying the ticket had allowed the machine to choose random numbers.

At least 54 U.S. attorneys appointed by the President and confirmed by the Senate left office before completion of a four-year term between 1981 and 2006 (not counting those whose tenure was interrupted by a change in presidential administration). Of those 54, 17 left to become Article III federal judges, one left to become a federal magistrate judge, six left to serve in other positions in the executive branch, four sought elective office, two left to serve in state government, one died, and 15 left to enter or return to private practice. Of the remaining eight U.S. attorneys who left before completing a four-year term without a change in presidential administration, two were apparently dismissed by the President, and three apparently resigned after news reports indicated they had engaged in questionable personal actions.

Doctors in New York have removed a woman’s gallbladder with instruments passed through her XXXXXX, a technique they hope will cause less pain and scarring than the usual operation, and allow a quicker recovery. The technique can eliminate the need to cut through abdominal muscles, a major source of pain after surgery.

The operation was experimental, part of a study that is being done to find out whether people will fare better if abdominal surgery is performed through natural openings in the body rather than cuts in the belly. The surgery still requires cutting, through the wall of the XXXXXX, stomach or colon, but doctors say it should hurt less because those tissues are far less sensitive than the abdominal muscles.
