An arrest warrant for Lindsay Lohan was issued by the Beverly Hills Superior Court on Friday, related to her 2007 DUI and hit-and-run case, according to People.com. While the exact nature of the charge is unknown, arrest warrants can be issued for any number of infractions, including minor administrative problems like failing to update an address. Lohan's lawyer, Shawn Chapman Holley, called the warrant "a misunderstanding," and said that she has been complying with the terms of her probation. On Saturday, Beverly Hills Police Lt. Mark Rosen said that the police are not ''actively looking'' for her, though if they came in contact with her, "she's subject to arrest." She is expected to attend a hearing on her case scheduled for Monday morning. The star, whose film Labor Pains opens in May, is currently serving three years' probation for the May and July, 2007 incidents, in which she was alleged to have been in possession of cocaine.

Professional wrestler Andrew "Test" Martin has passed away.
The former World Wrestling Entertainment champion, 33, was found dead at his apartment in Tampa, Florida, on Friday night.
No cause of death is known - yet.
Police say a neighbor reported that she could see into Martin's apartment through a window and that he had appeared motionless for several hours.
Police say the wrestler was dead when they arrived, but there was no indication of foul play.
A cause of death won't be determined until after an autopsy.
Bummer. http://perezhilton.com/2009-03-14-another-wrestler-found-dead

Tila Tequila was crowned the official queen of myspace. I crown her my official braless babe of March 2009. Any chick who will strut/bounce braless down a public street in a thin, white, v-neck t-shirt whilst paparazzi are clicking away is awesome. Her boos are awesome. Her smile is awesome. I would marry her, but she is from Vietnam and I think my country made war on hers once.

But at the bar, he's too late. Katie has left for the airport.
Somewhere in the Carpathian mountain range some Russian goons rappel into a castle. They find the tomb they're looking for.
Flynn returns to the Library, where Charlene is on the phone, trying to explain that Flynn wasn't authorized to make that high a bid. She starts in on him, but he doesn't want to hear it. And he's ruined his tux. It's a rental.
She takes him to the large collections annex, which goes on forever. The library is as big as they need it to be. It's holding Noah's Arc and Judson is testing the Fountain of Youth. They have another job for him, translating a manuscript, and Excaliber wants to do their weekly sword training.
Flynn goes a little cuckoo, complaining that he has no life and his best friend in a sword. Since he's been working there, he hasn't been in a relationship with a woman that lasted more than six months. Judson tells him to just think of himself as a celibate monk. That doesn't help. They think maybe he should take a vacation.
University of Bucharest, a professor lectures about Vlad the Impaler. Cheery stuff. After the lecture he's approached by a man named Sergei Kubichek, who recently resigned as security minister for the Russian government. They tell the professor they found a body -- Dracula's body. Professor Lazlo says it's a hoax, he's searched for it his entire life. He looks at one of the scrolls they brought and recognizes the Judas Chalice.
Charlene shows up at Flynn's house. Her combination speed dating-wine tasting was two streets down. She seems to have enjoyed at least half of it. He's playing on-line poker in his pajamas. She tries to get him to leave town and suggests locations, like New Orleans. But he's worried New Orleans will dump him, that he'll get his hopes up and be disappointed. She tells him to follow his dream and see where it leads him. She stumbles out (she's biking).

There’s a new kid on the micro-blogging block and that’s Plurk. As a fairly long-time Twitter fan I was intrigued to see so much commotion about it going on in the Twittersphere so I had to check it out for myself.
I put together a short video showing how Plurk and Twitter compare and in the video I also mention a tool called FeedTweeter that allows you to take your Plurks and automatically Tweet them so if you want to test out Plurk while you continue to use Twitter this is a way to do that without too much extra effort.
Click here to watch the Plurk v Twitter video at YouTube
Plurk has hit the market in a fully-featured way. It has quite a sexy ajax interface and comes with some significant features that make it stand out from the crowd.

How will Twitter, the hugely popular micro-blogging service (among the tech-savvy crowd anyway), make money? That’s the polite version of the question posed today by Allen Stern over at his CenterNetworks blog. Stern writes: “As Twitter usage has grown, have they f’ed themselves out of a real, sustainable business model?”
Twitter doesn’t charge for use of the service, though there can be some costs associated with sending SMS messages (with both Twitter and users footing the bill depending on whose sending and which country they’re based). Additionally, Twitter doesn’t (yet) serve ads — and to make matters worse, many of its regular users access Twitter through third-party clients, such as Twitterific, which utilize Twitter’s own free APIs.
Stern continues:
Most of the heavy Twitter users use the service via the API and “offsite”. I actually use the Web site and refresh the page every few minutes while I am at home. How can they monetize the API usage? If a Twitter user already paid $15 for a piece of [third-party] software, would they then be willing to pay Twitter for their account? It’s like paying for mIRC and then having to pay for the use of IRC itself.
In a fun post on his own blog, Dave Winer responds by saying that there are far harder problems than this particular web 2.0 conundrum (my words not his).
When I was in college, professors used to ask questions that are much harder than the question Allen Stern asks in this piece.
The NY Times crossword puzzle is harder.
Geez, installing a new hard disk in a MacBook is harder, and as I’ve found out that’s pretty easy.
According to Winer, Twitter has a number of potential business models, all of which rely on the service acquiring a large enough user base in the first place.
The first and third suggestion seem the most viable. Setting up a Twitter products and services store would be similar to Skype’s shop that sells USB phones and other products that utilize Skype’s API. And partnering with mobile carriers seems a “no brainer” and might provide a way to reduce SMS costs. Although, as Winer also points out, making Twitter more stable should be a first priority.
