CHILD STAR

The Home Alone star has all but vanished, except for a monthly party that he DJs in Manhattan. The Daily Beast’s Ramin Setoodeh went and found a roomful of adults in Jurassic Park costumes.

SANDUSKY

Jerry Sandusky’s defense revealed a new play on Tuesday, asking investigators questions that took aim at what details law enforcement may or may not have shared in their interviews with the former coach’s accusers. Sandusky attorney Joe Amendola went after two investigators for the state police, asking about whether or not they had told accusers about others who had made allegations of abuse against the former Nittany Lions legend.  “In some of our interviews … we did tell them,” Cpl. Joseph Leiter, a retired investigator, testified on Tuesday. “Each of these accusers was very, very seriously injured, and very concerned, and we had told them … that they wouldn’t be alone, that there were others.”

CRITICAL

Disgraced former Egyptian president Hosni Mubarak is clinically dead after arriving at a Cairo hospital Tuesday, state news reported. The 84-year-old Mubarak was sent to the military hospital in the Egyptian capital Tuesday after having a heart attack and a stroke, according to state media. Mubarak was given a life sentence in June for complicity in the killing of protesters during last year's Arab Spring uprisings. Reuters reported that sources, including one in the hospital, told the news agency that Mubarak's doctors had declared him clinically dead.The Washington Post reported that Mubarak's lawyer said the former leader was not dead.

ECONOMICS

JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon was back for round two on Tuesday, defending his company's $2 billion trading loss before Congress. The House Committee on Financial Services has been tough on Dimon this week. “Is gambling investing?” Rep. Gary Ackerman asked Dimon. "We don’t gamble. We do make mistakes,” Dimon replied. Dimon also said he was "dead wrong" when he dismissed reports about trading losses as a "tempest in a teapot." The executive was less humble when it came to his opinion of global economic regulation. "To a hammer, everything is a nail," Dimon said. "You guys can do what you want." 


New Americans

President Obama's been accused of making swift moves on immigration simply to win over the massive and influential Latino vote. But, according to a new Pew Research Center survey, Hispanics aren't even the biggest immigrant group in the U.S. anymore! It's Asians. Yep, approximately 430,000 Asian immigrants made their way to the United States in 2010, making up 36 percent of the new immigrant population compared to Hispanics' 31 percent. Asian-Americans are generally Democratic leaning, and 54 percent of Asian-American voters surveyed said they approve of President Obama's performance—that's 10 percent more approval than he's getting from the general population these days.
