Her rightful place

The Tiger Mom’s daughter has been accepted to two Ivy League schools.

Controversial author Amy Chua confirmed through her publisher that daughter Sophia has been accepted to Harvard and Yale, her top two school choices, well ahead of The Not Good Enough College and How Dare You Even Consider This University.

A face in the crowd: Glenn Beck fans weep for the future of their favorite afternoon TV talk show. With Beck’s ratings in steep decline, Fox News Channel will drop the show later this year.

The show won’t be leaving the airwaves right away, which is a win-win for everyone. Beck gets plenty of time at the chalkboard to pull together, once and for all, that whole ACORN-New Black Panther Party-George Soros-Woodrow Wilson-Islamic Caliphate thing. Meanwhile, writers at “The Daily Show” have lots of lead time to locate a new surefire go-to source of material.

With gas nearing $4 a gallon, the Prius should remain popular — especially if Toyota takes The Buzz’ advice and equips the car with a novelty horn that programmed to broadcast mocking laughs at Lincoln Navigators and GMC Yukons.
