Radio personality Rush Limbaugh was rushed to the hospital yesterday after complaining of chest pains.
The 58 year old is vacationing in Honolulu Hawaii, and while playing golf at the Waialae Country Club on Wednesday afternoon complained of chest pains.
Reports say he was admitted to the hospital in serious condition while tests were completed to determine if he had suffered a heart attack.
Local television stations were reporting Wednesday that paramedics took him to The Queens Medical.
No word yet if Rush will return to his radio show later next week after finishing his vacation.
His website Rushlimbaugh.com was displaying the following alert:

I know there are awards and mentions, but I really think think that LOST being picked as the #1 Scripted show by the site Television Without Pity is a big honor for the show.

TVGuide.com: With the final season of Lost approaching, what are you feeling? Carlton Cuse: I think we're doing something new in this final season narratively, so we have that combination of fear and giddiness. The fear is, oh, what if people don't like it, what if the audience doesn't like what we're doing? The giddiness is, like, we always feel like we have to be bold with our show and if it works, and if people like it as much as we do, we feel like the final season will be a success. When there's a draw though, we stand by our decisions. We're not playing it safe in the final season. Damon Lindelof: I think at this point, the nervousness is more based on how we're so deep into this season, that by the time the audience sees it, we're committed to our path. It's been like that ever since we started premiering in January and February. It's like it's too late to turn back now. We're feeling very confident about executing what our plan was, and that's all you can ever do.
TVGuide.com: What do you say to fans with such high expectations for your last season? Cuse: I think it's like anything in life. I think that you have to have realistic expectations. We're going to do our best version of the show, but there's still going to be some mystery and magic and intentionally ambiguous things that emerge at the end of the show. We're going to answer questions, but at the same time, we're going to tell the story the way we want to tell it. We feel like, all we can do is make the version of the show that makes Damon and I happy. If we do that, hopefully enough people will like it. Lindelof: Ditto.
Hey All, I was one of the lucky few who got a chance to go to the special reveal of Poster 16 for the LOST Underground Art Project in Hollywood, CA at Gallery 1988.
Thanks to several of you who convinced me to go including my podcast partner Karen who called me throughout the day and a special thanks to SNLFanForever for letting me join her and her friend Jessica in line to get in.
It was a really cool event with tons of LOST fans, the Writer/Producers Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse, and several other members of the producing team and staff.
The art was amazing and I was able to get several autographs on my Season 6 Poster.
NOTE: Poster 16 that was revealed tonight apparently has two clues for Season 6 and Damon Lindelof confirmed one of them when he signed the poster. You can find the post about the clues in the spoilers section here:
Here is a LIVE stream for tonight's reveal of the 16th poster and LOST Art from the ongoing ARG (The Lost Underground Art Project). Damon and Carlton will both be there.
Thanks to Sl-Lost for the heads up on this snippet from Carlton about the Season 6 Finale and the fact that it will be 3hrs, split over 2 weeks.
Will 18 hours be enough for the last season? (By the way, Season 6 will consist of a two-hour season premiere, 13 episodes and three-hour series finale that will air over two weeks -- but as Cuse joked, "I’m sure the network will sell it as a six-part finale if they can.") Cuse: "For us, [18 hours] is just about right. I mean, we aren’t sitting here feeling like, 'Oh my God, we need a ton more hours to tell the rest of our story.' It feels like it’s going to work out just fine. It will have been the right length."
A few weeks ago we ran a poll with our good friends at http://www.wakeuptimetodie.co.uk/ to see which batch of T-Shirts people would like to see made. Well the votes are in and they will make 4 of the following possible 5, depending which designs come out best.
Drive Shaft, Blast Door, Black Rock, and one of Mittelos or Jacob's Cabin.
Here is an early teaser of the Drive Shaft T-Shirt.
When all of them are finished I'll post all the designs and relevant links here on the homepage.
Also, as a way of thanks, http://www.wakeuptimetodie.co.uk/, have provided DarkUFO readers with a discount for any existing t-shirts that they make. All you have to do is enter 'DARK15' at the checkout stage and you'll get 15% off any order from now until midnight on Christmas Eve.
Update: 00:00 Sorry for the confusion. This was actually some concept art that was commissioned by ABC. It's unclear if this will be used as an official promotional photo.
Thanks to mr cyan for this new "leaked" poster for Season 6. I'm not 100% sure it's real but it seems pretty likely that it is after my conversation with mr cyan unless he's a good bull shitter lol.
As you'll see there are a couple of additions from the original.
Thanks to Erin at ABC for just letting me know that ABC plans to have their "Sunset On The Beach" Season 6 Premiere on 30th Jan 2010.
So you Spoilerphobes better stay off the net after the 30th as the whole episode will have been seen already and spoilers will be flying around the net.
NOTE: ABC have not confirmed if they will show both hours yet. As soon as I get news I'll update.
Update: 11th Dec A massive thanks once again to Sawyer840 who will be posting some more for us soon.
Thanks to cypher for compiling all of this for us. If anyone finds anymore please let us know so that those of us without Blu-Ray devices can still see the video.
Update: 01:15 Here are the larger versions with at least 1 of each character. Update: 00:40 Here are the first of the larger versions. We'll be adding the others soon. Thanks to Lyly for the heads up. Update: 00:30 Here is the press blurb that went with the photos
A 2008 recipient of the prestigious Peabody Award, and awarded the 2005 Emmy and 2006 Golden Globe for Best Drama Series, "Lost" returns for its final season of action-packed mystery and adventure -- that will continue to bring out the very best and the very worst in the people who are lost.
Oceanic Air flight 815 tore apart in mid-air and crashed on a Pacific island, leaving 48 passengers alive and stranded on a remote island in the South Pacific. The survivors include a diverse group of people from different walks of life -- a doctor, an escaped fugitive, a con man, an Iraqi interrogator, a married Korean couple and a man formerly confined to a wheelchair who is now inexplicably healed. As the castaways attempt to get home, flashbacks (and forwards) illuminate their troubled lives before and after the crash, as the island that they find themselves stranded on begins to slowly reveal its mysterious nature. Faith, reason, destiny and free will all clash as the island offers opportunities for both corruption and redemption... but as to its true purpose? That's the greatest mystery of all.
The survivors discovered that the island holds many secrets, including a mysterious smoke monster, polar bears, housing and hatches with electricity and hot & cold running water, a group of island residents known as "The Others," and a mysterious man named Jacob. They've found signs of those who came to the island before them, including a 19th century sailing ship called The Black Rock, a downed Beechcraft plane from a failed drug run, the remains of an ancient, four-toed statue, as well as bunkers belonging to the Dharma Initiative -- a group of scientific researchers who inhabited the island in the recent past. The survivors also encountered a freighter stationed off the island that some thought would lead to their rescue, but ultimately almost caused their extinction. And Jack, Kate, Hurley, Sayid, Sun and Claire's son, Aaron -- known as the Oceanic 6 - actually escaped the island and made their way back into the world. But their stay turned out to be short-lived since the island wasn't through with them, yet.
With only 18 original hours left until the final episode airs in 2010, the island's violent shifts through time were ended by Locke when he traveled off-island in an attempt to persuade the Oceanic 6 to return. Back on the island, the survivors' stay in late '70s Dharmaville was over when their covers were blown and they were accused of aiding "The Others," and Sayid was gravely wounded during their flight. In addition, Ben killed Jacob at Locke's request. But since Locke's body was found to still be inside the coffin, exactly who - or what - is John Locke? And if Juliet was successful in detonating the hydrogen bomb, was she able to reset time, allowing Oceanic Air 815 to land safely in Los Angeles, or was the island destroyed along with all of its inhabitants?
The band of friends, family, enemies and strangers must continue to work together against all odds if they want to stay alive. But as they have discovered during their journey, nothing is what it seems, and danger and mystery loom behind every corner, with even those they thought could be trusted turning against them. Even heroes - and leaders -- have secrets.
"Lost" stars Naveen Andrews as Sayid, Nestor Carbonell as Richard Alpert, Emilie de Ravin as Claire, Michael Emerson as Ben, Jeff Fahey as Frank Lapidus, Matthew Fox as Jack, Jorge Garcia as Hurley, Josh Holloway as Sawyer, Daniel Dae Kim as Jin, Yunjin Kim as Sun, Ken Leung as Miles, Evangeline Lilly as Kate, Terry O'Quinn as Locke and Zuleikha Robinson as Ilana.
"Lost" was created by Jeffrey Lieber and J.J. Abrams & Damon Lindelof. Abrams, Lindelof, Bryan Burk, Jean Higgins, Elizabeth Sarnoff, Edward Kitsis, Adam Horowitz, Jack Bender and Carlton Cuse serve as executive producers. "Lost," which is filmed entirely on location in Hawaii and premiered on September 22, 2004, is from ABC Studios.
