         <title>Redskins Star Sean Taylor Shot in Miami</title>
         <description><![CDATA[<p>Washington Redskins star Sean Taylor was <a href="http://www.miamiherald.com/news/breaking_news/story/320910.html" target="new">shot by intruders</a> in his home early today in Palmetto Bay, Florida.  He is in critical condition at Jackson Memorial Hospital in Miami after being shot in the groin.  </p>

<blockquote>[Taylor's lawyer Richard Sharpstein] said Taylor, 24, emerged from surgery about 12:30 p.m. but had lost a lot of blood and remained unconscious, his brain at risk of injury from the blood loss. He was in intensive care and doctors have allowed his family to see him. Sharpstein said a doctor informed the family around 6 p.m. Monday that Taylor had squeezed a nurse's hand, giving the family hope that he was responding to treatment.</blockquote>

<p>The intruders fled the scene and did not steal anything.  Taylor's girlfriend and child were also in the bedroom at the time of the shooting.  The baby slept through the whole thing.</p>

<p>Someone broke into Taylor's home last week when nobody was home, rifled through several things, and left a kitchen knife on a bed in the house.</p>

         <title>George Clooney Feels Lucky After Motorcycle Crash</title>
         <description><![CDATA[<p>Just three days after being involved in a serious motorcycle accident, <a href="http://celebrities.healthdiaries.com/george_clooney/">George Clooney</a> and girlfriend Sarah Larson appeared at the premiere of Clooney's new movie, <em>Michael Clayton</em>.  </p>

<p>Larson, who broke her big toe in the crash, showed up on the red carpet on crutches and George, who fractured a rib, was no doubt in a lot of pain.</p>

<p>Clooney, who is currently shooting <em>Burn After Reading</em> with Brad Pitt, told EXTRA that he broke his contract with the film's producers by riding a motorcycle: “I’m not supposed to be on a motorcycle. I think I’m in trouble now."</p>

<p>He also talked to People magazine about the accident, saying: "I feel pretty lucky we got out of it.  It's scary.  We never really saw it coming."</p>

<p>For the fourth time this year, she was rushed to the hospital.  This time she fell at a Fashion Week party at Milk Studios in New York and fractured her wrist in two places.   </p>

<p>Apparently there is going to be an investigation into the matter because Lohan claims Milk Studios did not do enough to prevent such an accident.   </p>

<blockquote>At the time she lost her balance, Lohan was clad in ostensibly sensible shoes--flat-heeled Chanel boots, as opposed to stilettos, [Linday's rep Leslie Sloane] Zelnick said.</blockquote>
