Bale, Barenaked Ladies and Blake

Every silver lining has a cloud?

While the team behind "The Dark Knight" is still basking in the $158.4 million afterglow, there's disturbing news this morning that Christian Bale has been arrested in London on suspicion of assaulting his mother and sister. They were all in town for the record-breaking superhero movie's premiere there.

Let this not be true.

The incident coincides with a now unfortunately timed Burger King/"Dark Knight" tie-in in Europe that rewards consumers for giving in to their "dark side." That's not a poor attempt at humor this morning on our part.

Turns out that an arrest for coke possession isn't compatible with Disney's Music Block Party, so Grammy-nominated Canadian pop band Barenaked Ladies has opted out of this summer's family-friendly tour (before the inevitable call from the Mouse House). Lead singer Steven Page (pictured) has pleaded not guilty.

Blake -- still incarcerated! Grammy-winning neo-soul singer Amy Winehouse will have at least four more months of on-stage laments, courtesy of a judge who won't let her husband out of the slammer just yet.

The rest of the day will be police blotter free. We promise.
