Arnold Schwarzenegger - Global Scenes

Arnold Schwarzenegger in stable condition after heart surgery

Former California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger is in stable condition Friday after undergoing emergency open-heart surgery during a procedure to replace a valve in his heart, according to his spokesman.
Schwarzenegger, 70, went to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center on Thursday for a planned procedure to replace a pulmonic valve that was originally installed in 1997 due to a congenital heart defect, Schwarzenegger's 
spokesman Daniel Ketchell said in a statement.
Schwarzenegger opted for a less-invasive catheter valve replacement but during that procedure an open-heart surgery team stepped in to replace the valve due to complications.

His pulmonic valve was successfully replaced after open-heart surgery and he is currently recovering from the surgery and is in stable condition, Ketchell said in a statement.

But for the purposes of this article, let’s call him an ancient philosopher. That’s not because we think he is or isn’t the messiah. It’s just that we’re not too keen to start a religious debate in the Topics column. Who knows where that might end. It might never end. Anyhow, our reason for writing about Jesus on Good Friday is that he

Adele - Global Scenes

Adele Hello, it’s me. I was wondering if after all these years you’d like to get married? Whoa . . . What are you on about? Sorry, I couldn’t resist. But you won’t believe this. Adele’s been ordained. Adele as in Adele? Yep, Adele as in Adele. She can now marry people. Crikey. Career change, or just not enough to do? Don’t these celebrities have albums to promote or reality television gigs to be getting on with? Well, she has only married one couple as far as I know. The whole ordination thing was for Alan Carr, the comedian, and his groom, Paul Drayton. She was planning their wedding ceremony (in her garden in Los Angeles, darling) and was going to sing too, so decided to do everything. Everything?                                                                           Read more...
