Around the Blogosphere, 26 July-1 August 2010

So, what's been hot on the blogs this week.. well, lets see..  lets start with Mel Gibson. Apparently, someone released at least 5 tapes where the former action hero makes death threats towards his ex-wife, where he admits to have punched her, and mr Gibson doesn't stop there.. he also spews anti-semetic, homophobic and racial remarks on those tapes. Will he be able to get back into the movie industry ever again? Don't know. Time will tell.

Moving on, as I posted a few days ago, BP has photoshopped several of their photos on their official website. BP have confessed to this although blames an overzealous photograph for the doctoring. John Aravosis from americablog.com was the blogger who blew the whistle about the edited photographs, and Washington Post picked up on his story.

Lindsay Lohan started to serve her jail time Friday the 23rd, and according to the latest gossip, the inmates are giving her a hard time.. so hard that the COs had to pur her in an isolation cell. Well, then don't drink and drive, Lohan.

Last but not least, Facebook is soon to celebrate its 500 million user. However, I think the celebration has been slightly subdued by the upcoming movie 'Social Network', which apparently the Facebooks founder isn't too keen about.
