U.S. astronauts are already blasting off to the International Space Station on Russian rockets. But now the Federal Communications Commission is weighing a plan to use Moscow-based satellites to route America's 911 emergency phone calls. Congressional Republicans, already skittish about trusting the Vladimir Putin regime as it airs its expansionist desires through Europe, fear the Russian leader would gain access to real-time information about emergency responders in every corner of the United States. That data, piped through Russia's GLONASS precision navigation and timing satellite system, already allows police, fire and rescue crews to pinpoint cellphone callers' locations. National security alarms are going off, and they're as loud as fire bells.

But after having her first son, Jacob, in December 2009, she couldn't seem to shake the baby weight.

"I was embarrassed to even go to the gym," says Stern, 33. "I was so incredibly out of shape, and the people I was working out beside were so incredibly fit.

Maria Shriver cheated on  Arnold Schwarzenegger with his own campaign strategist - flaunting the relationship in front of staffers five years before her husband's affair with the family maid was exposed, a shocking new report claims. Shriver debuted boyfriend Matthew Dowd last month at her cousin Bobby Kennedy Jr.'s wedding - introducing him to the family at the Kennedy Compound in Hyannis Port, Massachusetts. According to initial reports, the two have been seeing each other for less than a year. However, the New York Post now claims that Shriver and Dowd started their relationship in 2006 when Dowd was a chief strategist for Schwarzenegger's gubernatorial reelection campaign. Schwarzenegger found out, but she continued the relationship anyway, according to the newspaper.

"I grew up singing as soon as I could talk. I grew up in the kitchen as soon as I could stand." Brown told CNN while sitting in his tour bus strumming his guitar before a recent show at Chicago's Wrigley Field. It was his love of music and food that got Brown thinking about a better experience for some fans at his shows.

Beijing (CNN) -- Chinese President Hu Jintao, set to begin handing over power to his successor, warned Thursday that a failure to deal with corruption could bring down China's ruling Communist Party and the state it controls. Hu was speaking at the party's 18th National Congress in Beijing, a key meeting of top officials that will usher in a new set of leaders of the world's most populous nation. After a decade in power, Hu is expected to hand over the party's top job to Vice President Xi Jinping. "If we fail to handle this issue well, it could prove fatal to the party, and even cause the collapse of the party and the fall of the state," Hu said of corruption during his speech at the start of the congress in the Great Hall of the People in the heart of the Chinese capital.

New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft is backtracking on his story that Russian President Vladimir Putin stole his Super Bowl Ring. A spokesman for the billionaire businessman on Sunday said Kraft's claim that Putin pocketed his $25,000 Super Bowl XXXIX ring was a 'humorous, anecdotal story that Robert retells for laughs.' A careful reading of the statement, though, reveals that Kraft isn't saying the story is untrue - only that it isn't meant to be taken seriously. Kraft said Thursday that after Putin made off with his ring, he was pressured by the Bush White House into calling it a gift was a gift and letting Putin keep it.

The inter-ethnic violence in the state of Rakhine has killed at least 17 people in just over a week, according to official media. President Thein Sein's office issued an order imposing a state of emergency in Rakhine on Sunday, saying "riots and disturbances" had spread, according to the New Light of Myanmar, a government-run newspaper. The United Nations is temporarily relocating its staff from the area on a voluntary basis for safety reasons, said Ashok Nigam, the organization's resident and humanitarian coordinator in Yangon, Myanmar's largest city.

(Rolling Stone) -- "This guy looks like he was created by Wes Anderson," says Black Keys frontman Dan Auerbach as Pulp's Jarvis Cocker gambols across the stage. It's a couple of hours before the duo's show on the first night of this year's Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, and Auerbach and drummer Patrick Carney are hanging on a couch in a backstage trailer, checking out Pulp's opening set on a flat-screen TV. "Holy smokes," Auerbach continues, as Cocker gesticulates at the huge crowd just a few yards from where the Keys sit. "Man, he's going for it." Carney stares at the screen. "Maybe we should take some theater lessons."

(CNN) -- It is widely agreed that Wednesday night's presidential debate is crucial for Mitt Romney: This is almost assuredly his last chance to turn around the election. What is less obvious is that the stakes are sky-high for Barack Obama, too: This debate could have a powerful impact upon his ability to govern in a second term. Romney is dangerously close to blowing a campaign that many election models said he should easily win. Yes, three national polls published Monday -- including CNN -- showed the two candidates within three points of each other. But for Romney, the problem is that as the polls go up and down each week, there is one constant: As Real Clear Politics demonstrates in its averaging process, Obama stays ahead and has been for nearly a year. The news for the GOP from battleground states is even worse, especially in the Midwest.

Modern England comes as a shock to most Westminster persons. The former Tory MP Matthew Parris was so appalled when he visited Clacton that the resulting article was used in Ukip propaganda in the by-election there. Mr Parris appeared to be looking down a very long nose indeed at that town’s people and their lives. It didn’t seem to cross his mind that he – as a politician, broadcaster and influential journalist – might have helped to make it like that. At first glance, Rochester is not much like Clacton. It is an ancient cathedral city you might have glimpsed and wondered about as you took the Eurostar to Paris, or the M2 to Dover, and saw its Norman keep and ancient spire in the middle distance.

President Barack Obama's intelligence briefings have provided him with specific information since before he won re-election in 2012 about the growing threat of the terror group now known alternatively as ISIS and ISIL, an administration insider told MailOnline on Monday. 'Unless someone very senior has been shredding the president's daily briefings and telling him that the dog ate them, highly accurate predictions about ISIL have been showing up in the Oval Office since before the 2012 election,' said a national security staffer in the Obama administration who is familiar with the content of intelligence briefings. The staffer declined to share anything specific about the content of those briefings, citing his need to maintain a security clearance.

At first, Felisha Archuleta thought her young son's affinity for wearing dresses, primping his hair and playing with Barbies and Bratz dolls indicated he was going through a stage. But Bobby Montoya's interest in "girl stuff" has not been short-lived: He's grown his hair out and has dressed as a girl when he can for much of his 7 years. Bobby's been "outspoken" about his gender identity, said Archuleta. The Denver, Colorado, family's recent attempt to sign up Bobby with Girl Scouts, however, left him in tears, his mother said.

Separately, Carney said the Department of Health and Human Services will begin conducting daily briefings on Thursday about progress toward fixing problems with the Healthcare.gov website.

If the federal government shuts down starting Tuesday because of a bitter partisan battle over the new health care law, more people say congressional Republicans rather than President Barack Obama would be responsible, according to a new national survey. A CNN/ORC International poll released Monday morning, hours before funding for the government is scheduled to run out, also indicates that most Americans think Republicans in Congress are acting like spoiled children in this fiscal fight, with the public divided on whether the president is acting like a spoiled child or a responsible adult. And six in 10 questioned in the survey say they want Congress to approve a budget agreement to avoid a government shutdown, and if it happens, most people say a shutdown would be a bad thing for the country.
