Nelson Mandela’s great-granddaughter killed in car crash

Former president to miss World Cup opener after death of Zenani, 13, as police charge driver with drink-driving A heartbroken Nelson Mandela has pulled out of today's football World Cup opening ceremony in South Africa after the death of his great-granddaughter in a car crash. Zenani Mandela, 13, was killed on the way home from last night's pre-tournament concert in Soweto, where tens of thousands of people sang and danced with pop stars including Shakira and the Black Eyed Peas. It meant that a day the frail Mandela had long anticipated – his “rainbow nation” performing a new miracle under the world's gaze – became instead one of private grief and mourning. http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2010/jun/11/nelson-mandela-great-granddaughter-k… added by: zichi

Police: Joran van der Sloot Says He Knows Location Of Holloway’s Body

Joran van der Sloot told police investigators that he knows the location of the body of missing U.S. teen Natalee Holloway, the chief of Peru's criminal police said. “He let slip that he knew the place where this person was buried,” Gen. Cesar Guardia told The Associated Press. Guardia said, however, that the 22-year-old Dutchman told investigators “he would only testify (on the matter) before Aruba authorities.” Guardia said that he didn't know how seriously to take Van der Sloot's statement given his history of dubious statements about the 2005 disappearance in Aruba of the Alabama teen. Van der Sloot remains the lone suspect in the case, which came up in front of Peruvian police as the Dutchman confessed to killing Stephany Flores, a 21-year-old woman from Lima, Guardia told the AP. added by: TimALoftis

That’s Gay: Video Games Are Gay

The video game world hasn't always been gay-inclusive. In Nintendo games like “Contra,” “Mike Tyson's Punch-Out,” “Ring King” and “Streets of Rage 3,” you'd have to rely on gay innuendo. But in this week's That's Gay, Bryan Safi finds that gaming has gotten much gayer. “The Sims,” “Fable,” “Dragon Age,” “Bully,” and “Grand Theft Auto: The Ballad of Gay Tony” are all games that let you go gay for play. That's Gay is a recurring segment on the weekly television show infoMania. In each episode of That's Gay, Bryan Safi explores gay issues and stereotypes as they are portrayed by the clueless media. For more Bryan visit http://current.com/groups/thats-gay/ and Current TV. infoMania is a half-hour satirical news show that airs on Current TV. The show puts a comedic spin on the 24-hour chaos and information overload brought about by the constant bombardment of the media. Hosted by Conor Knighton and co-starring Brett Erlich, Erin Gibson, Ben Hoffman, Bryan Safi and Sergio Cilli, the show airs on Thursdays at 10 pm Eastern and Pacific Times and can be found online at http://current.com/infomania/ or on Current TV.
