Sarah Palin's strict views have turned her into a grandma for the second time; al-Qaida takes a page out of Disney's book to recruit children; meanwhile, Facebook fights Google+ by adding news to its online community. These discoveries and more after the jump.
As if schlocky TV and American politics weren't harrowingly similar enough already, this week brings the word that onetime tea party Senate hopeful Christine O'Donnell of Delaware got the invite to join the prancing cohort of celebs on the next "Dancing With the Stars."
