We cannot even begin to imagine what this poor woman must be going through right now.

This is a decision that no mother should ever have to make.

A week after Kyle Glover, Usher's stepson with Tameka Foster, was declared brain dead after a tragic jet ski accident in Georgia, we've now learned that the singer's ex-wife will be forced to take the 11-year-old off of life-support as soon as early August, as his insurance coverage will expire.

We don't know…there's only so many times you can hear this story before you start to believe it!

Rumors have been running rampant since Tom Cruise first started jumping on couches and declaring his love for Katie Holmes back in 2005 that the pair were set up through an audition process orchestrated by the Church of Scientology to help the actor pick his new bride. Now that they are divorcing, the stories are only gaining MORE traction!

Ch-ch-check out this report from The Today Show examining just that (above)!

Scary shiz, right?

And if true, all the more reason for Katie to get herself and little Suri as far away from this man and that organization as fast as possible!

We'll be very curious to see if his career can recover from all of this madness!

What do U think?? Did Tom Cruise let Xenu pick his bride?

He makes some valid points here.

Check out the video (above) of Jon Stewart speaking out against CNN for the way in which they covered Whitney Houston's death - by breaking the news to random people on the street in search of reactions.

We definitely agree that the network could have used more tact with their approach.

What do U think? Do U agree with Jon's comments???

Stay positive, Anderson!

Despite landing some big name guests and covering some major stories, Anderson Cooper's new daytime talk show did NOT have a stellar debut.

Anderson averaged 1.1/3 in households, and he struggled with fighting against coverage of the U.S. Open men's tennis championship in markets such as New York and Boston.

Aww! Such a bummer to hear, but marathon swimmer Diana Nyad has abandoned her 60 plus hour swim from Cuba to Florida after roughly 30 continuous hours in the water.

She reportedly began vomiting on top of suffering through asthma and a very sore shoulder.

Despite not being able to complete the challenge, she's STILL proved what she set out to prove. Age don't mean a thang!

The 61-year-old swimmer still spent more continuous hours swimming than most have spent in their lives TOTAL!

While "sad" she could not complete her dream, she confirmed canceling the rest of the trip "was absolutely the right call".

For more coverage from the team of reporters who covered her entire journey, check out the video above!

We were excited to report that insured women would no longer have to dish out a copay for their birth control beginning in January 2013 under new insurance guidelines set forth by the Obama administration.

However, the health care law includes an exception for religious organizations that morally oppose contraception, which has frustrated members of both Catholic and pro-choice communities.

They feel that the exception could exclude thousands of women employed by religious institutions from the preventative benefits the new law offers.

For example, Catholics for Choice president Jon O’Brien in a statement:

“The multi-billion dollar Catholic health care industry has a lot of influence with this administration, influence that it has now used to allow religious institutions to ride roughshod over the needs of their workers. Not only that, it ignores the consciences of those who decide that to use a modern method of family planning is what is best for them and their families."

A spokesperson for Planned Parenthood said, overall, they were pleased by the new insurance guidelines, but "disappointed" that some women would be left out of the birth control coverage.

The spokesperson maintained their pledge to help women in need of affordable birth control, saying:

"Planned Parenthood will continue to work hard to ensure that all women, regardless of their employer or insurer, have access to the health care they need, including affordable birth control."

The new law is certainly better than nothing, but hopefully ALL women will have access to affordable and effective birth care one day!
