Hey, what did you do for your 31st birthday? Did you drink as if you were turning 21 and then wake up face-down on a strange mattress with little more than a vague, depressed notion of where you were? Or, did you make like Matt Richter-Sand, a personal trainer and founder of NX Fitness, who plans to celebrate the big 3-1 by climbing the Santa Monica stairs 100 times?

For those of you who were missing your soap operas at around mid-day today, fret not -- "All My Children" and "One Life to Live" will soon be launching online episodes.

Once upon a time, Chris Brown and Rihanna were together. Then they were apart, and then, well, they were together again. To hear Brown tell it last week, that means that RiRi's vagina actually outright belongs to him.

Engaging in an ongoing national battle for the worst venue name ever, the Home Depot Center in Carson will become the StubHub Center, effective July 1.

PETA has never been a big fan of Kim Kardashian, with an activist for the animal rights organization once flour-bombing the reality star on the red carpet. But now, they've taken their hatred for Kim one step further -- in an interview with Radar Online, PETA spokesperson Wendy Wegner basically called Kim a bad mom for wearing a fur stole.

In tonight's Extra, Extra, a soldier leaves a special gift, the Santa Monica Fire Department gives to the East Coast, and a shady skateboarder steals from Girl Scouts.

Last week, porn star James Deen headed over to his alma mater, Pasadena City College, to be a guest lecturer in a class called "Navigating Pornography".
