Here are a few things in news, sports, entertainment and popular culture that we've been talking about lately.

* Kevin Jonas, the eldest Jonas Brother, is engaged. And, like a mood ring from the '70s, his purity ring turns black.

* A KTNV-TV, Channel 13 reporter shoves a loutish passer-by during a live stand-up. We know we're supposed to be all harumphy about this, but we're loving it way too much.

* Former tennis babe Anna Kournikova reportedly tussles with a woman who tossed a drink on her at Lavo. See previous item.

* Lance Burton renews his contract with the Monte Carlo for six more years. Thus preserving a tiny bastion of class along an ever-devolving Strip.

* Criss Angel says he'll walk over improvised explosive devices during his "Mindfreak" season opener. Wishing for a magic trick to fail goes against everything Mark Wilson ever taught us, but ...

* Matt Lauer gives a tour of Michael Jackson's Neverland Ranch on "Today." And throws his back out trying to tap dance around what that "secret room" in the back of MJ's closet might have been used for.
