Audience Members Amaze at Oprah Season Premiere Party

The Black Eyed Peas helped Oprah kick off her 24th Season Party last week in Chicago. Oprah closed down Chicago streets to film her Season Premiere which both thrilled and annoyed many of the Chicago natives. The show was a star studded event with performances by the Black Eyed Peas, James Taylor and Jennifer Hudson among others. If caught the show or have seen the video floating around the web then you know that it was the Black Eyed Peas and the Flash Mob (a pre-arranged meeting where the group all practiced the dance ahead of time) audience members that stole the show.

Sonic Boom Rattles Southern California

Seal Beach and Southern California were rattled today around 5:50 thanks to a sonic boom from the Space Shuttle landing at Edwards Air Force Base.    One local resident said, “I thought a car ran into my house.  The whole house shook and there was a very loud boom.  I ran outside to see what it was and then my neighbor told me that the Space Shuttle was landing today.  I had no idea we would hear it all the way down here.”

The Space Shuttle landed in California after a 14 day mission to deliver supplies.  The Shuttle was forced to land at Edwards after weather on the East coasts was determined to be too unstable to land.
