Christina Wilson was getting her 4-year-old son up from a nap and bringing him in to listen to a compact disc his grandparents had given him for Christmas when her husband stopped her — he thought he heard something inappropriate. Then Wilson listened to the "Kids Favorites" CD out of her son Caiden's earshot and heard the profanity. "It was a shock," she said. Wilson said that on Tuesday she contacted the Wal-Mart store in South Bend where her in-laws had bought the CD to let them know about the lyrics. Wal-Mart Stores Inc. spokeswoman Melissa Hill said the company had already started pulling the CDs from its shelves nationwide on Monday after a supplier notified it about a problem with the CD. "When we learned of a CD that could appeal to children included songs with profanity, we took immediate action to begin removing the product from our store shelves," Hill said. "We are working with our supplier to investigate this matter fu...

Alright, stop. Collaborate and listen. Favre is back with a brand new invention. Something grabs a hold of him tightly, flows like a harpoon, concussed, yet still sprightly. Here's a video of Brett Favre (notes) dancing to "Ice Ice Baby" at Minnesota Vikings practice this week, much to the delight of his stretching teammates:  All things considered, 2010 has been a pretty miserable year for Favre. He started on top, winning a playoff game and taking the Minnesota Vikings to the NFC Championship, but once there he threw a crippling interception. Eventually he re-retired, was coerced into returning to the Vikings in the summer, got caught up in a sordid scandal, played some of the worst football of his career, had this record streak of consecutive starts snapped and then was fined $50,000 for the aforementioned scandal. If anyone could use some dance-induced catharsis headed into 2011, it's Favre.  And to ensure your 2011 isn't like Favre's 2010,...

In a post-holiday week that has seen several announcements of celebrity couplings, singer John Mellencamp and his wife Elaine have decided to do the opposite and separate. "John and Elaine Mellencamp are proud of their 20 years together and are very happy with their accomplishments both as parents and as a family. They will continue to raise their two children in Indiana but have decided to call it a day as a couple," their spokesman said in a statement on Thursday. No further details were available. Mellencamp gained fame in the late 1970s and early 1980s under the stage name John Cougar. His early rock hits include "Hurts So Good" and "Jack and Diane" and as his notoriety grew, he dropped the name Cougar and began performing as John Mellencamp. While he has never regained the superstar status he enjoyed during the '80s, Mellencamp has kept a solid fan base and continued to put out albums and tour around the world. His wife, whose ...

CLYDE, Ohio – Every time his kids cough, Dave Hisey's mind starts to race. Is it cancer? Is it coming back? His oldest daughter, diagnosed with leukemia nearly five years ago when she was 13, is in remission. His 12-year-old son has another year of chemotherapy for a different type of leukemia. And his 9-year-old daughter is scared she'll be next. Hisey is not alone in fearing the worst. Just about every mom and dad in this rural northern Ohio town gets nervous whenever their children get a sinus infection or a stomachache lingers.
