They came, they protested, they got the boot. Despite a late-night police raid kicking 99-percenters out of Liberty Square, re-occupying occupiers are holding tight to this message: "You can't evict an idea whose time has come."

A select few were treated to the first screening of Twilight's very own fairytale wedding last night at the Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1 movie premiere. Robert Pattinson, Taylor Lautner, Kristen Stewart, and yes, even Bruno Mars took to the red black carpet in Hollywood. Whether or not you were at the screening, you probs already read, heard, and re-read who ends up with who. But we want to know, if it was up to you, who'd be the one walking down the aisle: Edward or Jacob?

Jay-Z and Kanye may be giving props to Occupy Wall Street -- but it’s breakout artist Penguin Prison who’s made the official dance anthem for the 99%.

It’s never fun when you funk up your feed with a major mistweet -- but when a celeb gets “foot-in-phone” syndrome, their social media screw-ups get blasted by millions of rabid re-tweeters faster than you can type “#WTF.” We’re talkin’ ‘bout you Ashton Kutcher and your Penn State and Village Voice Twitter snafus.

Yes, we know Ashton Kutcher made an uh-oh, tweeting his ill-informed two cents about the current sexual abuse scandal rocking Penn State, but this is not a Think Before You Tweet/Speak warning (though please, please think before you tweet or speak).

Watch Rick Perry's campaign-halting brain fart in the video below, and you may be tempted to believe he's just not sharp enough to wear the POTUS title. One might wonder, "Who forgets an agency of the federal government they would cut?" Perry remembered that he would cut Commerce and Education but he couldn't recall the last agency he wants to "do away with." While everyone is talkin' bout Perry's speech mishap we want to know: Um, did you hear what he actually just said??? Again and again while grasping for words, Rick Perry affirmed that at least he knew one thing: Federal funding for education has to go.

Today we’re celebrating 10 months of Act. Aside from the cupcakes and streamers and dancing on desks, we decided to celebrate by relaunching our nifty "Total Actions Taken" counter over there on the right. Rather than tracking visitors, followers, likes or whathaveyous, we’re ridiculously obsessive about action. The action counter is a proud, real time reminder of how many actions, big, small and in-between, the Act community takes every day.

Everyone knows that firefighters are exceptionally talented at rescuing kittens from trees. Here is some very happy news: They are also skilled heroes in the puppy-saving department. Just ask Lucky, a 4-day old Chihuahua mix from Denver, CO.
