A lawsuit that halted a new highway in Iceland was filed on behalf of elves.

The latest entertainment app to launch for the Xbox 360 comes from The CW (the relationship has now come full circle), bringing shows like Arrow, Supernatural and The Vampire Diaries to the console. Special to this offering is that it will stream full episodes the day after they air on network TV, and will not require users to verify a cable or satellite subscription. Xbox Live Gold is required, so it’s not an entirely free pass to stream away. Still, for fans of the shows it’s another way to watch and this Friday’s Vampire Diaries episode will feature some exclusive second screen content available via SmartGlass. Not into The CW’s teen-centric offerings? Beyond the just-launched Pizza Hut app, XBL Silver sports fans can enjoy a free weekend (25th – 28th) of access to ESPN, MLB.tv, UFC (the 7 pre-fight stories), NHL GameCenter and NBA Game Time. There’s also the Hockey Night in Canada app, and an update for Hulu Plus that lets parents search for kids shows based on age group.
