Elite -ist: Tumbling Down

Our -ist brethren are busy busy busy! Here's some of what you missed since we last checked in.

Parisist presents: things you can do with cork. We think. But then again, we don't speak French. We just look at the pictures.

Gothamist: "It's his fault for thinking he could be as good as me. He didn't didn't [sic] do any back handsprings after that." We decline further comment -- you'll just have to click through.

Austinist: Texan Anna Nicole Smith finally gets her day in court. The Supreme Court. Look for updates on "This Week in Celebrity... Stupid."

DCist: The DC council is trying to ban prostitution. They don't think the interns are getting enough attention anymore.

Bostonist gets cheesy.

SFist: tells the tale of a performance artist who screwed over the homeless of San Francisco.

Chicagoist: People do stupid stuff in Chicago, too!

Shanghaiist: Mission Impossible III will make its world premier in Shanghaii, China. That means we'll be able to buy bootleg copies sooner than usual!

Houstonist: Houston is getting its own Body Worlds exhibition. Copycats.

Londonist: Sharon Baker has made a lifesize replica of herself. In gingerbread. Which was due to be eaten by an exhibition audience. Gives new life to the words "eat me," eh?

LAist: Just in case you've ever wondered how old Elizabeth Taylor really is.
