>> Maybe Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg and pill-popping Paula Abdul have more in common than we know. The 76-year-old Supreme Court Justice was hospitalized last night after combining prescription sleep aid and over-the-counter cold medication. (The Washington Post)
>> Washington Post reports on a growing number of 20 and 30-somethings who are avoiding social networks like Facebook in spite of all of their friends being members of the sites. They soon will have no friends. (The Washington Post)
>> But maybe those naysayers are right: A Tennessee woman was arrested for Facebook "poking" another woman, allegedly violating a court-ordered block of communication. (CNN via Gawker)
>> I guess these rabbits weren't so lucky: Stockholm has burned thousands of wild rabbits as heating fuel. (Reuters)
>> And finally, in turning one country's problem with alcoholism into expensive cocktails: a 63-year-old Russian homeless man collected nearly 2,000 bottles a day over the past year and is now a wealthy stock market trader. (Reuters)
