Sad news for Mr. Soul Train himself. For some reason, I didn't think he was alive. Who knew? Thanks to Robert and our good friends at OMG for this one:

LOS ANGELES - The Los Angeles city attorney has charged Don Cornelius, former host of "Soul Train," in connection with two domestic incidents involving his wife last month.
Cornelius was charged with spousal battery, assault with a deadly weapon and dissuading a witness from making a police report, all misdemeanors, city attorney spokesman Frank Mateljan said Friday.
The married 72-year-old producer was taken to jail last month after police were called to his Hollywood Hills home following a report of domestic dispute.
Cornelius was released on $50,000 bail. He could face up to one year in prison for each of the five misdemeanor charges.
