Parting Shot: Palace pooped by throne theft

A toilet fit for King Midas was stolen recently from Blenheim Palace, the birthplace of British statesman Winston Churchill and the ancestral home of the Duke of Marlborough. The 18-carat gold toilet, entitled America and valued at nearly $8 million, had been part of an exhibition by artist Maurizio Cattelan and was plumbed in and available to be used by visitors. Two men have since been arrested, but the whereabouts of the golden throne remains unknown.
