MILWAUKEE (AP) -- PepsiCo Inc. is facing criticism for an iPhone application that promises to help men "score" with two dozen stereotypes of women by giving users pickup lines and a scoreboard to keep track of their conquests.
An apology by the company - which is using the app "Amp up before you score" to market its Amp energy drink - is igniting more online criticism. But the company is sticking by the app.
[...]
The application lets users select from stereotypes of women, like the "foreign exchange student" or "nerd" or "cougar." Then it offers possible pickup lines like, "Wasn't I in Space Academy with you?" for the nerd.
It also offers other hints, like links to world news for the foreign exchange student. For the "rebound girl" - who has just broken up with her boyfriend - it offers maps of local ice cream shops.
The app then lets users add women - along with name, date of the conquest and comments - to the user's "brag list," which can be shared online on sites like Facebook and Twitter.
[...]
The brouhaha generated new downloads on Wednesday and hundreds of new comments from users of the program, negative, positive and neutral.
"This is a great app for men, horrible app for women," wrote one user, who gave it a top rating of five stars. "Only download this app if you have been around the block a few times with different types of women."

Heart-stopping CCTV footage of a six-month-old baby's miraculous escape when his pram was struck by a suburban train in Melbourne's east has been released.
The baby's pram rolled off a platform at Ashburton railway station about 4pm (AEDT) yesterday and into the path of an oncoming train that pushed it some 30 metres along the track.
Emergency services personnel who rushed to the station found the six-month-old being cared for by his distraught mother, said Ambulance Victoria paramedic Jon Wright.
"Fortunately the train was slowing as it pulled into the station," Mr Wright said in a statement.
"The baby received a bump to his head and was distressed when we arrived.
"Luckily he was strapped into his pram at the time, which probably saved his life."
The boy was taken to the Royal Children's Hospital in a stable condition.
Connex spokesman John Rees praised the male train driver's quick response.
"The train driver would have been extremely shocked by this incident," he told ABC Radio.
"He's used his training well and he has applied the brakes as hard as possible.
Especially if he was somehow able to not only derail the train, but get it back on to the rails wihout mass casualties
Especially if he was somehow able to not only derail the train, but get it back on to the rails wihout mass casualties
Now that would make him an international hero and a man of legend.

Boasting muscles a superhero would be proud of, Matthias Schlitte has good reason to be considered the toast of the German arm wrestling circuit.
But a closer look reveals that only ONE of his arms is bestowed with bulging biceps.
The 22-year-old’s whopping right forearm measures nearly 18in – and is in stark contrast to his puny left arm.
Despite its odd appearance, Matthias’s Popeye-esque limb has strong-armed him into first place in a host of competitions, including the Iron Curtain Armwars in Blackburn and the German Championships in Haltern, this year.
Matthias, who has been involved in the sport since he was 16, said: ‘Many people’s first association with arm wrestling is a beer-soaked bar-table and drunken sailors – which is completely wrong.’
Of how he began his career, he explains: ‘In 2004, a little bar in Haldensleben was looking for the strongest arm wrestler in the region – my first tournament and the beginning of my career.
‘Without any knowledge or practise I competed in the amateur-class up to 90kg – being only 16 years old with a weight of 65kg.
‘At first, older and more experienced fighters smiled at me for being so light-weighted, but after winning the contest the opinions changed immediately.’
I was surprised that he was a lefty.

Target has pulled a Halloween costume that some in the Latino community found offensive.
The costume showed a space alien carrying a green card and included a prison-like jumpsuit with "Illegal Alien" stamped across the front.
When word of the costume got out, several Latino groups publicly complained that the costume was insensitive.
Executive director of the Coalition for Human Immigrant Rights, Angelica Salas, called the costume "distasteful, mean-spirited, and ignorant..." Lizette Olmos, national communications director for the League of United Latin American Citizens, referred to the costume as "really disturbing"
Target says that the costume was never intended to be on the website and blames the mistake on human error during data entry.
UPDATE: Anti-immigration groups are now using the costume as a rallying cry, and the head of ALIPAC will be conducting interviews next week wearing the costume. More details here (http://blogs.citypages.com/blotter/2009/10/alipac_prez_to.php)*.
Really, that shouldn't be racially insensitive. Illegal aliens can come from anywhere and don't have to be latino at all. The fact that they'd be upset about it does more to further the stereotype than the costume itself.
The operator of a La-Z-Boy chair converted into a motorized vehicle -- complete with a stereo and cup holders -- has admitted that he crashed the piece of furniture after leaving a bar in Proctor, Minn., extremely drunk.
Dennis LeRoy Anderson, 61, of Proctor, pleaded guilty Monday to hopping on the chair on the night of Aug. 31, 2008, after visiting the Keyboard Lounge, then crashing into a more traditional vehicle in the parking lot. Anderson's blood-alcohol content was 0.29 percent, more than three times the legal limit for driving in Minnesota.
Deputy Police Chief Troy Foucault said today that the chair is "quite decked out." Along with the stereo and cup holders, it is powered by a converted gasoline-powered lawnmower, a steering wheel, headlights and a power antenna.
Foucault estimated that the La-Z-Boy can top out at 15 to 20 miles per hour. A National Hot Rod Association sticker adorns the headrest.
The chair was impounded and will be sold at the next police auction.
"We have quite a few people calling about buying it," said Foucault, who half-seriously acknowledged that he's tempted to bid on it, except that "I have kids who would take it out and drive it on the street."
Anderson admitted to police that he had been drinking at home, was leaving the bar and had drunk eight or nine beers that day before getting on the La-Z-Boy and crashing it into a Dodge Intrepid parked outside, Foucault said. Anderson was treated at the scene for minor injuries and given a field sobriety test, even though he pleaded several times with the officer to "give him a break," according to the police report.
"He failed everything," Foucault said, leading to Anderson's arrest and seizure of the chair. The officer on the scene checked Anderson's driver's license and determined that it had been revoked because of a previous drunken-driving conviction, according to police.
Anderson, who does auto body repair work out of his home, was sentenced Monday to 180 days in the St. Louis County jail or at the Northeast Regional Corrections Center and was fined $2,000. The jail time and half of the fine was stayed for two years of supervised probation with conditions that include a chemical dependency assessment, random testing and 30 days of electronic monitoring.
bong water can count as an illegal drug.
That decision from Minnesota Supreme Court on Thursday raises the threat of longer sentences for drug smokers in that state who fail to dump the water out of bong — a type of water pipe often used to smoke drugs
The court said a person can be prosecuted for a first-degree drug crime for 25 grams or more of bong water that tests positive for a controlled substance.
Lower courts had held that bong water is drug paraphernalia. Possession of that is a misdemeanor crime.
The case involved a woman whose bong had about 2 1/2 tablespoons of liquid that tested positive for methamphetamine. A narcotics officer had testified that drug users sometimes keep bong water to drink or inject later.

A 'MONSTER' great white shark measuring up to 6 metres long is prowling a popular beach after biting another great white almost in half.
Swimmers were warned to stay out of the water off Stradbroke Island after the shark mauled another smaller great white which had been hooked on a baited drum line.
The 3m great white was almost bitten in half.
The fictional shark at the centre of the Steven Spielberg blockbuster Jaws was estimated to be more than 1.5 metres longer.
'It certainly opened up my eyes. I mean the shark that was caught is a substantial shark in itself,' says Jeff Krause of Queensland Fisheries.
The great white, the most dangerous creature in the sea, was still alive when hauled onto a boat near Deadman's Beach off north Stradbroke island.
News of the shocking attack on the smaller shark has sent jitters along the Queensland coast from Stradbroke Island, near Brisbane, to the Sunshine Coast further north down to the tourist mecca of Surfers Paradise, south of Brisbane.
OMG! JAWS LIVES!!!

"During this period demons are assigned against those who participate in the rituals and festivities. These demons are automatically drawn to the fetishes that open doors for them to come into the lives of human beings. For example, most of the candy sold during this season has been dedicated and prayed over by witches."
"Curses are sent through the tricks and treats of the innocent whether they get it by going door to door or by purchasing it from the local grocery store. The demons cannot tell the difference."

There was little to disguise what these two had been up to moments before police pulled them over.
Would-be burglars Matthew McNelly and Joey Miller's masterplan had one tiny flaw --their 'disguises' comprised of masks drawn on their faces with permanent marker pen.
American police stopped their car after a witness reported two men 'with painted faces' were trying to break into a flat in Carroll, Iowa.

The caller added that the pair were wearing dark, hooded tops and had driven off in a big white car.
Police soon spotted a 1994 Buick Roadmaster matching the description and stopped it at gunpoint.
Inside they found the two men, both of whom had what appeared to be masks, beards or moustaches scrawled on to their faces.
McNelly, 23, and Miller, 20, were both charged with attempted second-degree burglary and released on bail.
McNelly was also charged with drunk driving.
The pair are due in court next month. Hopefully the disguises will have washed off by then.
Perm fails at GPS.
Clark County, Wisconsin - 911 dispatchers often get calls from people observing an impaired driver on the road. What makes the call Mary Strey made unique, is that she called 911 on herself.
"Somebody's really drunk driving down Granton Road," she told the 911 dispatcher.
The dispatcher asked if the Strey was behind the drunk driver, to which she replied "No, I am them."
The dispatcher asked, "Okay, so you're calling to report you're driving drunk?"
"Yes," Strey said.
The dispatcher told Strey to pull her vehicle over, and she complied. She waited for a deputy to arrive with her hazard lights flashing. According to the police report, Strey failed field sobriety tests, and a preliminary breath test showed she had a blood alcohol content of .19, more than twice the legal limit to drive.
She was given a citation for operating a vehicle with a prohibited alcohol content of .10 or more. She's due in court in December, facing charges of first offense operating under the influence.
I hope they also fine her for not using a hands free device when making the call while she was driving.
This woman is a hero. That drunk-driver could have caused a serious accident if she hadn't reported her.

Forget 'scared straight' -- if you want to keep troubled youth on the right track, you've got to hit 'em where it hurts.
Right in the Wii.
According to The Winnipeg Sun, that's the thinking of judge Marvin Garfinkle, who opted to grant a troublesome 12-year-old boy bail on condition that he surrenders his beloved Nintendo Wii to the court.
"He is pledging as a security, akin to a cash deposit, his Nintendo Wii," Garfinkle told the paper. "And if he doesn't comply, he loses it."
By "comply," the judge means "keeping the peace, appearing for court dates, living with his grandmother and participating in a bail management program." Failure to uphold any of those duties will result in forfeiture of the console.
The odd punishment represents the last ditch effort to curb the boy's bad behavior, which includes smashing windows at his elementary school, punching a classmate in the face, disobeying a court order to stay away from school, hitting another boy with a pool cue and attacking a teacher after a game of dodgeball.
Despite the rough resume, the boy's lawyer thinks he's simply misunderstood.
"I know it doesn't look good," Serena Puranen told The Sun. "I've never seen him enraged, I've never seen him upset. He's a 12-year-old who is generally quite scared."
make him listen to nothing but the Beatles(not helter skelter) and he should calm down.
A bride and groom were shocked to discover that their wedding cake was actually fake.
The Daily Mail reports that Aimee and Tony West were cutting into their three-tier sponge cake when they realized they were cutting into polystyrene, a foam material. See a photo of the couple with the cake .
"It was a terrible shock -- in front of our family and friends," Aimee said. "It was a lovely occasion and the ceremony was going to be the icing on the cake -- only there was no cake."
The cake maker, Creative Cakes, said the incident occurred as a result of a mix-up. Karen Williams who runs Creative Cakes told the Guardian that Aimee didn't confirm her order a week before the wedding like she was supposed to.
"By the time Aimee contacted me, it was too late to make a proper cake," Williams said. "I explained I would be delivering an artificial cake -- they are quite common at weddings these days. I offered them a refund so there was no reason to take me to small claims court."
But the Wests did take Creative Cakes to court and were awarded 310 British pounds ($514) in compensation.
Having a fake cake at weddings isn't uncommon. One company called CakeRental.com makes display cakes of foam with one section that's edible, so couples can still cut into it and "feed each other." Guests at the wedding are then served sheet cake that's cut in the kitchen.
A Connecticut woman quit her teaching job that paid $94,996 just after she was caught in a police sting stealing $20 from another teacher’s purse, according to authorities.
Susan Dinnean, 55, of Redding, Conn., told police she planned to return the money.
Middlebrook Middle School, in Wilton, got a math lesson in basic subtraction after teacher reported two $50 bills were stolen from her wallet in mid-October, reports the Stamford Advocate.
Less than a week later, on Oct. 21, the same teacher called police to report that another $70 was gone from her purse.
So police set up an undercover camera in the room. When police came to review the tape, they discovered a woman crouching down then sticking something in her pocket -- and $20 was gone from the purse being watched.
Police and the school principal confronted Dinnean, and she allegedly admitted taking money from other teachers and even from the principal’s purse.
Her 22-year career as a teacher ended Monday. She was arrested Tuesday on three counts of larceny and posted a $2,500 bond.

Twilight star Robert Pattinson says he worries about being infected with HIV when adoring fans approach him with open wounds and ask him to suck their blood.
Pattinson, who plays vampire Edward Cullen in the series, has revealed he genuinely fears for his life when fans mob him in the street.
The 23-year-old actor laid out his concerns to promote a new biography ahead of the next Twilight film, New Moon, which premieres this week.
"People ask me to bite them and want to touch my hair," Pattinson told the News Of The World.
"I just don't want someone to have a needle and give me HIV and I don't want to get shot or stabbed."
Pattinson recalled one time where a group of girls approached him bleeding from scratches they had just opened up on their necks.
"They were like, 'We did this for you' … I didn't know what to say — 'Thank you, guys?'"
Pattinson said he feels vulnerable at big film events such as premieres, where he could be the target of an overly obsessive fan or even a terror attack.
He admits struggling to come to terms with fame since the release of the first movie, which grossed more than $350m worldwide.
He has difficulty coping with so many people trying to "ambush" him in public and at home.
He said he has come to accept the attention, but would be prepared to give away acting away for his first passion — music — if the fans ever became too much.
I think he just doesn't like film premieres. I met him at the Harry Potter 4 premiere and he didn't look like he was having a good time there either. I certainly don't recall anyone offering to bite him though, wonder if he considered that possibility when he agreed to the role.

A shopping centre in China's Hebei province has built a car park with wider spaces that it says is designed especially to suit women drivers.
The women-only car park in Shijiazhuang city is also painted in pink and light purple to appeal to female tastes.
Official Wang Zheng told AFP news agency the car park was meant to cater to women's "strong sense of colour and different sense of distance".The parking bays are one metre (3ft) wider than normal spaces, he said.
The Wanxiang-Tiancheng shopping centre had also "installed signs and security monitoring equipment that corresponded more to women's needs", he said.
The Global Times website says female parking attendants have been trained to help guide women drivers into their parking spaces. The bays also have extra lighting.
They need to do that in the US too. They say that men are in more accidents than women, but I call bullshit. My old car was hit on 5 separate occasions, every time it was a woman, and in a parking lot or driveway.
92-Year-Old Cited For Reckless Driving
PORT ORANGE, Fla. --
Diners at the Biscuit's "N" Gravy and More restaurant in Port Orangereceived a surprise Wednesday when a car plowed into the side of thebuilding.
A 92-year-old man was at the wheel when his vehicle crashed into the busy restaurant on Nova Road.
The driver wasn't hurt, but the cook said a customer had just left the damaged seating area.
Investigators think Charles Pierce stepped on the gas instead of hitting the brake while trying to park, but instead of panicking and amid all that debris, he calmly got out of the sedan and placed his order.
The driver asked if anyone was hurt. There was very minor injury,but once Pierce was sure all was well, he dug in to his breakfast.
"Come out of his car, no problem. He sat down at the table, has his breakfast, and God bless America, beautiful,"
City building officials said there are no structural problems, so the restaurant can continue to operate.
The damage is estimated at about $25,000.
The elderly driver was cited, after breakfast, for careless driving.

the post wherein this thread gets creepy
A sheep gave birth to a dead lamb with a human-like face. The calf was born in a village not far from the city of Izmir, Turkey.
Erhan Elibol, a vet, performed Cesarean section on the animal to take the calf out, but was horrified to see that the features of the calf’s snout bore a striking resemblance to a human face.
“I’ve seen mutations with cows and sheep before. I’ve seen a one-eyed calf, a two-headed calf, a five-legged calf. But when I saw this youngster I could not believe my eyes. His mother could not deliver him so I had to help the animal,” the 29-year-old veterinary said.
The lamb’s head had human features on – the eyes, the nose and the mouth – only the ears were those of a sheep.
Veterinaries said that the rare mutation most likely occurred as a result of improper mutation since the fodder for the lamb’s mother was abundant with vitamin A, CNNTurk.com reports.
A goat from Zimbabwe gave birth to a similar youngster in September 2009. The mutant baby born with a human-like head stayed alive for several hours until the frightened village residents killed him.
The governor of the province where the ugly goat was born said that the little goat was the fruit of unnatural relationship between the female goat and a man.
"This incident is very shocking. It is my first time to see such an evil thing. It is really embarrassing," he reportedly said. "The head belongs to a man while the body is that of a goat. This is evident that an adult human being was responsible. Evil powers caused this person to lose self control. We often hear cases of human beings who commit bestiality but this is the first time for such an act to produce a product with human features," he added.
The mutant creature was hairless. Local residents said that even dogs were afraid to approach the bizarre animal.
The locals burnt the body of the little goat, and biologists had no chance to study the rare mutation.
Now to throw this thread off of creepy and into the WTF ZONE!!!
I'm not even sure if this next one is possible, but I'm not making it up. It's in the NEWZ.

A new professional basketball league boasting rosters made up exclusively of white Americans has its eyes set on Augusta, but the team isn't receiving a warm welcome.
The All-American Basketball Alliance announced in a news release Sunday evening that it intends to start its inaugural season in June and hopes Augusta will be one of 12 cities with a team.
"Only players that are natural born United States citizens with both parents of Caucasian race are eligible to play in the league," the statement said.
Augusta Mayor Deke Copenhaver, who has publicly expressed his support for minor league teams in the past, said he would not do the same for this team.
"As a sports enthusiast, I have always supported bringing more sporting activities to Augusta," he said. "However, in this instance I could not support in good conscience bringing in a team that did not fit with the spirit of inclusiveness that I, along with many others, have worked so hard to foster in our city."
Clint Bryant, athletic director at Augusta State University, laughed when he heard the news.
"It's so absurd, it's funny, but it gives you an idea of the sickness of our society" he said. "It shows you what lengths people will go to just to be mean-spirited. I think at any basketball level, no matter if it's all black, all white, all Hispanic, all Asian or anyone else, the players should just be a basketball team."
Don "Moose" Lewis, the commissioner of the AABA, said the reasoning behind the league's roster restrictions is not racism.
"There's nothing hatred about what we're doing," he said. "I don't hate anyone of color. But people of white, American-born citizens are in the minority now. Here's a league for white players to play fundamental basketball, which they like."
Lewis said he wants to emphasize fundamental basketball instead of "street-ball" played by "people of color." He pointed out recent incidents in the NBA, including Gilbert Arenas' indefinite suspension after bringing guns into the Washington Wizards locker room, as examples of fans' dissatisfaction with the way current professional sports are run.

The Atlanta-based league, which will operate as a single-entity owning all of its teams, is looking for local contacts to pay $10,000 to become a "licensee" in one of 12 cities throughout the Southeast. Lewis said he has already received threats from people opposed to the roster restrictions and several cities have told him to stay out of town. Lewis said he has yet to hear from any one in Augusta.
"We need a local person ingrained into the community to make this successful," he said.
Lewis said he expects to eventually find support in every town with a team.
"People will come out and support a product they can identify with. I'm the spoken minority right now, but if people will give us a chance, it'll work... The white game of basketball, which is essentially a fundamental game, works."
Lewis said he wasn't sure where the team will play.
Augusta has had problems with minor league basketball teams in the past, but the issues never centered around race. The Augusta Drive lasted less than a month before folding in 1995, citing financial reasons. The Augusta Groove made it through a full, 20-game schedule in 2009, but accusations from players and local businesses that the team wasn't paying its bills surrounded the team during the second half of the season. The team later shut down in the offseason.

GLASTONBURY, England -- A British 19-year-old has officially changed his name to "Captain Fantastic Faster Than Superman Spiderman Batman Wolverine Hulk And The Flash Combined."
The Glastonbury, England, teenager -- originally named George Garratt -- said his new name, which is thought to be the world's longest, has so outraged his grandmother that she is no longer speaking to him, The Telegraph reported Monday.
The teen said he used an online service to officially change his name for a $20 fee.
"I wanted to be unique," Captain Fantastic said of his name choice. "I decided upon a theme of superheroes."
As the commenters on that story pointed out, he ripped off that name from an episode of Family Guy.

Amanda Flowers - Wii Fit Made Her A Sex Addict
Wii Fit may have a new marketing scheme. Ok, not really but one woman's injury from falling off her Wii Fit board has many scratching their heads.
A 24-year-old woman named Amanda Flowers from Manchester said the Wii fit turned her into a sex addict. She said that minor vibrations from even a food processor or her cell phone makes her extremely 'horny'. She was told by an expert doctor that she suffered a damaged nerve that has given her "persistent sexual arousal syndrome." Since then, men have been joking that they plan on buying their girlfriends and wives Wii Fit. We wonder why.
Amanda Flowers says she needs up to 10 sex sessions a day to keep her sane. Amanda, who is single, told the Dailystar, "With no cure I just have to try to control my passion by breathing deeply. Hopefully one day I'll find a superstud who can satisfy me." Amanda is from Harpurhey Manchester, and we wonder how long she will stay single.
Injuries from the Wii are frequent in the UK. A quick scan of Youtube for Wii injuries reports from doctors has us naming the Wii the most dangerous console on the market. Beware.
She could put the Wii Remote in the Football shell and then put the Football in her-

SPRINGDALE, Ohio -- A Florida man police say wore an elaborate mask to rob several banks and businesses in the Tri-State over the past month is behind bars on a $3 million bond.(http://i44.tinypic.com/2cgj9lt.jpg)
Conrad Zdzierak, 30, was arraigned Thursday morning on six counts of aggravated robbery in Hamilton County court.
Acting on a tip, officers from several departments served a search warrant at the Extended Stay America Hotel at 320 Glensprings Drive in Springdale Wednesday afternoon where they arrested Zdzierak.
Officers discovered a red dye pack from a bank had exploded inside a vehicle that belongs to Zdzierak.
Police then tried to enter Zdzierak's room, but were encountered by a dog that bit one of the officers, prompting one of them to fire their gun.
Once inside, officers discovered evidence, including a Hollywood-style mask linking Zdzierak to six robberies.
"The suspect seen in the surveillance photographs and that we were looking for, we believed to be an African American male. The suspect was actually a male, white, who was wearing an elaborate disguise," said Lieutenant Michael Mathis with the Springdale Police Department.
Springdale police says they have never seen such an elaborate mask.
Police say Zdzierak committed five of the robberies last Friday, April 9.
Investigators say Zdzierak would hand a note to an employee indicating he had a gun and demanded cash.
According to police, Zdzierak has been living in the Springdale hotel for the last year.
The robberies Zdzierak is charged with are:
- March 5 - Chaco Bank, 1143 Smiley, Forest Park, Ohio
- April 9 - Key Bank, 8457 Winton Road, Springfield Township, Ohio
- April 9 - Fifth Third Bank, 10595 Springfield Pike, Woodlawn, Ohio
- April 9 - Key Bank, 11355 Princeton Pike, Springdale, Ohio
- April 9 - CVS Pharmacy, 11601 Springfield Pike, Springdale, Ohio
- April 9 - Franklin Savings, 1100 West Kemper Road, Forest Park, Ohio

When 72-year-old Pearl met her grandson, little did she realise she'd soon be 'pregnant' with his child
Pearl Carter is positively glowing with joy. She has a handsome new boyfriend, is enjoying an active sex life after many years of celibacy and, amazingly, is preparing to become a mother again.
But the retired grandmother isn't carrying the baby herself. She and her young lover have spent a staggering $54,000 hiring a surrogate to help them with their dreams of having a child.
What makes Pearl's decision to become a mum again even more shocking is that her new boyfriend is her biological grandson, 26-year-old Phil Bailey.
Phil is the son of Pearl's daughter Lynette Bailey, and the pair is braving public horror and even prison by breaking one of the last taboos – incest.
CLYMER - An Indiana County woman has been charged with having sex with a horse, state police at Indiana said Tuesday.
Dovie Lee Kerner, 46, of Plumville also allegedly had sex with other animals including a dog and a pig, court documents state.
The investigation began in November 2008 when it was reported by two officials from the Humane Society of Indiana County, police said.
One of the officials said she received a phone call from a confidential informant who asked her if it was illegal to have sex with an animal. When told yes, the informant said he had a video on his cell phone of Kerner having sex with a horse, court documents state.
Because of Kerner's alleged sexual activities with other men and animals, the informant, who had dated the woman, and his Jack Russell terrier both contracted sexually transmitted diseases, court documents state.
Kerner is charged with two counts each of obscene and other sexual materials and performances and disorderly conduct and one count of sexual intercourse with an animal.
The charges were filed before Magisterial District Judge George Thachik. No preliminary hearing date has been set, according to online court records.

NORTHAMPTON - A 20-year-old Pittsfield driver was cited by police Tuesday after she ran down Lord Jesus Christ in a marked crosswalk at Main Street and Strong Avenue, police said.
Brittany E. Cantarella was cited for a crosswalk violation, said Northampton police Capt. Scott Savino.
Christ, 50, of Belchertown, was taken to Cooley Dickinson Hospital for treatment of minor injuries following the 3:30 p.m. accident. He was treated at the hospital and then released.
Cantarella was making a left turn from Strong Avenue onto Main Street when her car, a 2005 Chevrolet Monte Carlo, struck Christ.
Christ was in a marked crosswalk at the time of the accident, Savino said.
Savino said officers checked Christ’s identification at the scene and confirmed it was his legal name.

An American woman claims she became pregnant after watching a 3D porno.
US military man Erick Jhonson came home from a stint in Iraq to find that his wife was pregnant. Clearly he assumed she had an affair, but his wife Jennifer claims the “other man” was actually someone a little less physical.
It seems he actually buys her story, however. “I see it as suspicious. The films in 3D are very real. With today’s technology, anything is possible,” he said.
What's even more interesting is that both Jennifer and Erick are white, but the child is black. Jeniffer claims the kid looks like the black pornstar she had been ogling. She also claims this was one of the first times she's watched porn and only went with friends for the 3D effect. TechEye did a survey of one person and found 100 percent would say the same thing in a similar situation.
“Even though my husband believed in me, my marriage could be at risk,” Jennifer said. “But he knows I’m faithful.” It just shows you what joining the military does to your head.
Jennifer explained that “a month after watching the movie, I started feeling dizzy and the results were positive.” That must have been one good porno.

FAST FACTS:
Westside Middle School in Memphis discourages saggy pants with the help of '90s sitcom star "Steve Urkel"
If kids wear saggy pants, teachers "Urkelize" them by hiking up students' pants and fastening them with twist ties
The initiative has drastically cut the number of students who wear saggy pants or no belt
(Memphis, TN 12/06/2010) Steve Urkel, the lovable nerd in the 1990s sitcom "Family Matters," is the inspiration for smart dressing at Westside Middle School in Memphis.
At a time when kids parade through town and school with pants hanging well below their rear ends, Westside Principal Bobby White helped create a new gimmick to get them to pull up their pants.
"I'm old school with new ideas," White said.
The idea is called "The Urkel Initiative."
Students who wear their pants too low or don't wear a belt get "Urkelized."
It means a staff member hikes up students' pants and keeps them hiked up with twist ties.
When the initiative started weeks ago, 75-80 students a day were getting "Urkelized," now you'll see four or five.
Staff members get a trophy for "Urkelizing" the most students.
"What we wanted to do with our changing of the culture was to think of something that would stick with them, but not make it seem like they were being punished, and add a little humor all at the same time," White said.
A New Zealand truck driver has survived a freak accident with an air tank that inflated him like a balloon to twice his normal size and left him looking like the Michelin Man.
Steven McCormack, 48, ended up Saturday in the intensive care unit at a hospital in Whakatane, a town on the North Island's east coast.
As McCormack was standing on the rigging between his truck and trailer while working at Waiotahi Contractors, he slipped and fell onto a brass valve that was connecting the truck's brakes to the compressed air supply. The nozzle pierced his left buttock and air rushed into his body at 100 pounds per square inch.
"In a matter of minutes, my body blew to twice its size," McCormack told New Zealand's 3News.
His boss, Robbie Petersen, witnessed the accident and said, "He became more and more distressed and his whole body—his face, his eyes started to close—started to swell."
As the air pumped and he began to scream, co-workers struggled to pull him off of the nozzle. In a life-saving move, they managed to stop the air supply and put him on his side. It was an hour before paramedics arrived.
"I was blowing up like a football," recalled McCormack to 3News. "I had no choice but just to lie there, blowing up like a balloon."
When paramedics tried to insert a needle for a drip, the pressure from the air pushed the needle out. They were also unable to give him air through a tube in his nostrils.
Doctors say the air filled his abdomen and chest, as well as the space around his heart, lungs, and even behind his eyelids. The air separated his fat from his muscles and compressed his heart.
After being rushed to the hospital, a team of doctors put a hose through his ribs to get air to his lungs. Though doctors were able to get fluid out of him, the air had to come out the natural ways, resulting in an enormous case of flatulence. It took McCormack three days to go back to his normal size.
McCormack suffered no broken bones and no bruises, just a hole from where he was punctured. Leaving the hospital, he said, "I really feel like the Michelin Man."
Edward Smith, who lives with his current "girlfriend" – a white Volkswagen Beetle named Vanilla, insisted that he was not "sick" and had no desire to change his ways.
[...]
"I'm not sick and I don't want to hurt anyone, cars are just my preference."
Mr Smith, 57, first had sex with a car at the age of 15, and claims he has never been attracted to women or men.
But his wandering eye has spread beyond cars to other vehicles. He says that his most intense sexual experience was "making love" to the helicopter from 1980s TV hit Airwolf.
As well as Vanilla, he regularly spends time with his other vehicles – a 1973 Opal GT, named Cinnamon, and 1993 Ford Ranger Splash, named Ginger.
[...]
His last relationship with a woman was 12 years ago - and he could not bring himself to consummate it, although he did have sex with girls in his younger days.
Mr Smith, from Washington state in the US, kept quiet about his secret fetish for years, but agreed to be interviewed as part of a channel Five documentary into “mechaphilia”. He is shown meeting other enthusiasts at a rally in California
The victim dug a hole in a garden in the eastern city of Blagoveshchensk and climbed into an improvised coffin, with holes for air pipes, taking a mobile phone and a bottle of water with him. His friend covered the coffin with earth and then left, after the buried man phoned to say he was fine.
The next morning, he returned to find his friend dead, investigators said. The 35-year-old victim had believed that burying himself alive for a night would bring him luck the rest of his life.
"According to his friend, the man wanted to test his endurance and insistently asked his friend to help him spend the night buried," said Alexei Lubinsky, a senior aide to the region's chief investigator. "We know that the victim was a computer programmer and that he has a small child."
Internet craze
The coffin was covered with soil to a depth of around 20cm (eight inches), Mr Lubinsky said. He speculated that heavy rainfall overnight could have blocked the air supply to the man trapped inside. The superstitious victim was probably influenced by reading stories about self-burial on the internet, investigators said.
In a bizarre trend, numerous Russian bloggers write of undergoing supervised self-burial. State newspaper Rossiiskaya Gazeta has even run a feature on the practice. The BBC's Steve Rosenberg, in Moscow, says it is not the first time this has happened in Russia.
Last summer a man in the north-western Vologda region persuaded his friend to bury him in the ground - to help him overcome his fear of death. He was found dead an hour and a half later, crushed by the weight of the earth
A teenager in Huaishan, Anhui Province has sold one of his kidneys to buy an iPad2 tablet computer, as reported by SZTV on June 1.
The 17-year-old man surnamed Zheng, a freshman in high school, got connected with a kidney-selling agent through the internet, who pledged to pay him 20,000 yuan ($3,084.45 ) for one of his kidneys.
On April 28 of this year, Zheng went to Chenzhou, Hunan Province to have his kidney removed under the supervision of three so-called middlemen, and received 22,000 yuan ($3,392.97). Then he returned home with a laptop and an iPhone.
Zheng's mother discovered her son's new electronic products and forced him to reveal how he came to afford them. Then she took Zheng to Chenzhou and reported the matter to local police. The three agents' telephones have not been answered since that time.
Chenzhou 198 Hospital, where Zheng had his surgery, has no qualifications for kidney transplantation, according to SZTV reporters.
The hospital has denied any connection with the kidney removal operation, and has said that its urology department is contracted to a businessman in Fujian.
How much does that kettle holocaust?
The 1st U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals last week upheld a conviction against a Maine man who served a seven-day jail sentence for willfully damaging and creating a hazard and nuisance in the federal courthouse in Portland. Specifically, he pooped his pants and then left a mess in the bathroom after attempting to clean himself up.
And what a mess. The poor maintenance worker who had to deal with it said that “seventy-five percent of the floor was covered in feces” while more was “smeared more than two feet up on the walls” and “on the paper towel and toilet paper dispensers, on the toilet paper itself, and on part of the toilet seat and the left side of the toilet bowl,” according to the opinion.
The outrageously graphic 57-page court document, written by distinguished judges who sit one level below the U.S. Supreme Court, includes vivid comparisons to spaghetti with meat sauce and chunky peanut butter. There are also photos of the bathroom where the crime took place, though mercifully after it had already been cleaned.
So what went wrong? Ronald Strong, who said he was 50 at the time and had a heart condition that required medication that may have affected his bowel control, arrived at the courthouse on business for an unrelated civil case. As he was being screened by security, he informed the guard that he had to use the bathroom, and then that he was defecating in his pants. The guard escorted him to the restroom “with Strong intermittently trailing feces on the floor” which he later described as “liquid and there was pieces in it” that dripped down his leg “all the way to my ankles.”
]b\Once safe in the bathroom, he took his clothes off, cleaned up the best he could, throwing his boxers away because they were destroyed: “I mean, how could I carry them home?” he testified. “What was I going to put them in? I mean, it was covered in feces, there was — I mean, what was – I mean, I had my briefcase, I mean, what was I supposed to do with them? I threw them in the trash.”
After washing up at the sink the best he could, he exited the bathroom, took care of his official business and left the building. It wasn’t until a law enforcement officer tried to use the restroom 15 minutes later that the disaster was discovered.
When he was hauled back into court, Strong’s defense was two-fold — one, he didn’t mean to cause the mess, and two, there were no clearly visible signs warning that it was illegal to befoul the bathroom.
The court rejected both, first noting that signs prohibiting damage, hazards and nuisance were posted clearly inside the building. As for intent, they held that he willfully made the mess, reasoning that it was so extensive that no mere accident could be that catastrophic.

Justin Bieber left one Newark, N.J., fan with a unique memory and a little DNA when he stuffed the fan’s phones down his pants, pretended to walk away and then tossed it back.
Justin was chatting with the crowd during a July 30 concert at the Prudential Center when fans started tossing items on stage.

“I don’t need a bandana, honestly,” he sniffed at one gift, before tossing it back into the crowd. Then, he kicked another item off of the stage before one fan managed to get his attention by tossing a phone.
“She’s throwing a phone? Look at this!” Justin said. “I say ‘Don’t throw things on stage!’ and this is what they throw. They throw a phone on stage.”
He laughed, “I mean, I do need a new iPhone.”

Then, grinning, he pulled out his belt and slid it below his waistline into his pants. Pretending to walk away, and smoothing his shirt down over his belt, he broke out into laughter before digging down into his crotch again to retrieve the phone.
Justin tossed the phone back into the crowd — noticeably, in the opposite direction from where he picked it up — and continued his rant, saying, “For real, though, don’t throw things on the stage.”

Tim Lake told CBS5 he has a video camera outside his Phoenix home that sends him screenshots whenever someone approaches the residence.
When he first saw the robber, he figured it was just a new neighbor coming by to introduce herself, until he remembered he didn't live in Mayberry, and realized he was being robbed.
With the help of the screenshots and some identifying descriptors — "this is either a woman or Dog The Bounty Hunter has really let himself go" — Lake printed and posted a bunch of "Wanted" posters around his community to warn others.
"I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want. But I will look for you. I will find you, and I will convict you," Lake said, doing his best Liam Neeson in Taken.
The Intempo skyscraper in Benidorm, Spain—standing proud in this image—was designed to be a striking symbol of hope and prosperity, to signal to the rest of the world that the city was escaping the financial crisis. Sadly, the builders forgot to include a working elevator.
In fairness, the entire construction process has been plagued with problems, reports Ecnonomia. Initially funded by a bank called Caixa Galicia, the finances were recently taken over by Sareb – Spain’s so-called "bad bank" – when the mortgage was massively written down.
In part, that was a function of the greed surrounding the project. Initially designed to be a mere 20 storeys tall, the developers got over-excited and pushed the height way up: now it boasts 47 storeys, and will include 269 homes.
But that push for more accommodation came at a cost. The original design obviously included specifications for an elevator big enough for a 20-storey building. In the process of scaling things up, however, nobody thought to redesign the elevator system—and, naturally, a 47-storey building requires more space for its lifts and motor equipment. Sadly, that space doesn't exist.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, the architects working on the project have resigned, and it remains unclear exactly how the developers will solve the problem. Can we recommend the stairs?
A £1.75billion Spanish submarine project has run aground after officials realised that the vessel is more than 70 tonnes too heavy - because an engineer put a decimal point in the wrong place.
A former Spanish official has described the mistake, which has led to fears that the submarine might not resurface if sent to sea, as 'fatal'.
The Isaac Peral, the first in a new class of diesel electric submarines, was almost complete when the problem was noticed.
Spain will now pay US Navy contractor Electric Boat £9million over three years to assess the issue and carry out the work required to correct it, according to the Spanish Defence Ministry.
Rafael Bardaji, former director of the Office of Strategic Assessment at Spain's Defense Ministry said that officials will review options suggested by Electric Boat.
A zoo in China is facing an uproar of criticism this week, after it was revealed that its African lion is in fact a dog. The zoo, located in the People's Park of Luohe in the province of Henan, reportedly tried to disguise a Tibetan mastiff as a big cat, putting it on display in a cage marked "African lion", according to AFP. The Tibetan mastiff is a large, long-haired dog with a slightly lion-like mane, but the zoo's charade was exposed after visitors heard the animal bark.
According to the People's Daily, the zoo also tried to replace other exotic animals with even less congruous substitutes. The snake cage, for instance, contained two large rats and exactly zero snakes, while a leopard cage reportedly included fox-like creatures.
A Russian man faces up to two years in
prison for stealing an entire road, the
Russian Interior Ministry said this week.
The man, a 40-year-old resident of
Syktyvkar, the capital of Komi Republic in
the Northwestern Federal District, admitted
having stolen 82 reinforced concrete slabs
that make up the roughly 1-mile road linking
the village of Parcheg with the Vychegda
River, the Russian news agency RIA Novosti
reported Thursday.
Police uncovered the highway robbery when
they pulled over a convoy of three heavy
trucks carrying the slabs, which they said
had been removed with a manipulator, an
industrial machine that combines a bulldozer
and a forklift.
The Interior Ministry valued the slabs at
200,000 rubles, or about $6,095.
While it's unusual for an entire road to
vanish, Russia's recent history is filled with
thefts of other infrastructure, especially
bridges, which are valued for their metal.
Most recently, a bridge over the Nozma
River in the village of Frolovo, northeast of
Vologda, was stolen in June — with a trail of
tractor tracks leading to the culprit's home,
the Interior Ministry reported.
The man, who authorities said painstakingly
dismantled the bridge with a welding torch,
could also face up to two years in prison.
The Indonesian Ayam Cemani is "my most requested bird, ever," says Paul Bradshaw of Florida's Greenfire Farms. Why is the chicken so special? It's partly aesthetic: The Ayam Cemani is black inside and out, from its feathers to its comb to its internal organs. "They're stunningly beautiful, like staring into a black hole," says Bradshaw. The bird is also incredibly rare: Bradshaw, the first US breeder, won't have chicks to sell until early 2014. He's pricing them to meet demand: $5,000 a pair.
Come to the Dark Side.
The Indonesian chicken breed known as Ayam Cemani takes ‘dark’ into an entirely different realm. Their feathers are black. Their skin is black. Cut open an Ayam Cemani and you’ll find black muscle anchored to black bones. Even their organs are black. And what do you get for all this unrelenting blackness? One of the most beautiful chickens in the world. In Asia, Ayam Cemani are renowned as much for the mystical powers of their black meat as they are for their extraordinary ink-black feathers that shimmer with a metallic sheen of beetle green and purple.
Greenfire Farms was able to locate and legally import pure specimens of this breed despite the current USDA export ban on importing live chickens from Indonesia. We have unrelated bloodlines of ayam cemani that should produce healthy and beautiful chicks for many generations. Ayam Cemani are friendly birds, and the hens lay about 60 cream-colored eggs their first year. A typical laying cycle lasts for about 20 to 30 eggs, then the hen will stop laying for three to six months. The eggs are unusually large in proportion to the size of the hen’s body.
The birds pictured here are our breeding stock, and they were selected from many birds for their exceptionally black features. However, we cannot guarantee the distribution of black pigment in their offspring. We intend to release the Ayam Cemani in the spring of 2014. The juvenile birds are difficult to sex, and juvenile pairs will probably be 8-12 weeks old. If you would like to be on the waiting list, a $100 deposit will hold your place in line to receive a pair.
apan is known for its selection of weird foods, and today we can add one more item to the ever-growing list. The Black Terra Hot-Dog is one of the most popular fast-food delicacies sold in the Akihabara district of Tokyo. It’s over 30 centimeters long and looks like it’s been cooked a few hours longer than necessary.
Black hamburgers have been around for about a year now, ever since Burger King launched its Premium Kuro Burger in Japan. It has black buns and dark ketchup, but the meat patty and vegetables retain their natural colors. But the people over at Vegas Premium Hot-Dogs, in Akihabara, Tokyo decided to one-up the giant fast-food chain by creating a food item that is entirely black as charcoal. Vegas was already famous for the size of its delicious hot-dogs, which span over 30 cm in length, but ever since they introduced the Black Terra Hot-Dog, in March, their popularity has grown even more. You would expect clients to be turned off by the rubber-like sausage, but apparently people who see this delicacy advertised on the billboards in front of the fast-food joint just can’t resist the urge to try it.
By now, you probably think the images have been manipulated in Photoshop, but I can assure you the Black Terra Dog is very real. So how is a food that looks like rubber safe for human consumption? Some people claim the buns and sausage are infused with squid ink for coloring, but according to a number of reports in the Japanese media, Vegas Premium Hot-Dogs actually uses edible bamboo charcoal powder, which is used as a food dye throughout Asia. I know it looks bad, but apparently it doesn’t alter the taste at all and it’s good for your health.
The Black Terra Hot-Dog costs ¥600 ($6) and is just one of the three delicious treats sold by Vegas Premium Hot-Dogs.
A teetotalling Texan whose family thought he was addicted to booze was in fact suffering from a rare disease where his stomach turns the food he eats into beer.
Too much brewer's yeast in the 61-year-old's gut meant that whenever he ate starch, it sparked a chemical reaction leading to fermentation.
The man — dubbed "the human brewery" — ended up getting totally tanked without even touching a drop of alcohol.
His condition was discovered only after he stumbled into a hospital, complaining of dizziness.
Doctors initially laughed when he, despite clocking in at more than five times the drunken driving limit, said he hadn't drunk a thing.
Tests later revealed his stomach effectively brews beer.
The news stunned his wife, who thought he was sneaking drinks into his day.
"He would get drunk out of the blue," said Barbara
Cordell, dean of nursing at Panola College in Texas.
"On a Sunday morning after being at church, or really, just any time. His wife was so dismayed about it that she even bought a Breathalyzer," she added.
The man is now on a low-carb diet and antifungal drugs in a bid to keep his alcohol levels down.
It’s been roughly a year since Apple released
its botched Maps app and it’s still ruining
lives. Most recently, drivers in Alaska were
(mis)directed to drive across an active
runway at Fairbanks International Airport
as the app mistakes it for a regular road.
The BBC reports that the airport had to close
the road that had been accidentally used by
three motorists since the flaw was
discovered on the app. A complaint filed by
the airport to Apple says the app directs
people to drive across the runway, rather
than a nearby taxiway.
An airport spokeswoman said that
barricades were installed to block the
entrance to the portion of the taxiway that
the app directs people to. The airport
reported the error to Apple and won’t
reopen the surrounding roads until it’s
corrected.
In two of the incidents, the airport called
the drivers “persistent” for relying on their
phone and not their instinct that perhaps
bypassing a motion-activated gate,
disregarding the warning signs and seeing a
Boeing 737 crawl past them to not might
indicate some faulty mapping.
“They needed to drive over a mile with all
this before reaching the runway. But the
drivers disregarded all that because they
were following the directions given on their
iPhones,” said assistant manager Angie
Spear to the BBC.
An Apple spokesperson didn’t comment. In
the mean time, drivers in Fairbanks might
want to use Google Maps as it didn’t contain
the error.
Lake Natron is an insidious trap for the birds of northern Tanzania: The terrifying lake turns to stone all birds that are foolish enough to immerse themselves or unlucky enough to fall into its deceptive water.
Volcanic ash from the nearby Great Rift Valley contaminated Lake Natron with sodium carbonate and baking soda to the point that only extremophile fish like the alkaline tilapia can survive there, while other animals that take a dip will soon thereafter feel their bodies begin to calcify and harden until they look as if they've had a run-in with the White Witch or Medusa.
Even trickier is that the combination of chemicals in the water makes the lake extremely reflective, which often confuses birds into diving into it.
If there are this many statues above the water, it must be an aquatic garden of statues at the lake's creepy bottom.
The effects and dead scenery of Lake Natron are both fantastic and morbid, inspiring associations with certain Tim Burton movies and other Edward Gorey-esque imagery.
A coconut has been detained by Maldivian police on suspicion of vote-rigging in a key presidential election.
The coconut, described as "young", was found near a school that will be used as a polling station on Saturday on the remote Kaafu atoll, one of the hundreds of islands that comprise the Indian Ocean archipelago state.
Though the population of the Maldives is Sunni Muslim, continuing belief in magic is widespread in rural areas. Coconuts are often used in rituals and inscribed with spells.
[...]
The local Minivan news website reported that police "took the coconut into their possession" around 7.05am on Tuesday, after they received a complaint about the suspicious fruit near the school on the Guraidhoo Island, which lies 130 miles from the capital, Male, and has a population of around 2,000.
"The 4in coconut had a [Koranic verse] written in Arabic [on it] and was lying on the ground near the school, easy for the public to see. It seems like it was a joke, just a prank, so that people will become aware," Minivan quoted a source on Guraidhoo saying.
Minivan said its source had suggested the coconut "was a lesson for islanders not to practise black magic in an attempt to influence voting, and that the polling area would be closely monitored to prevent such activities from occurring".
Earlier this year, school authorities on Guraidhoo resisted using their buildings as a polling station, citing previous instances when problems had been caused by magic. Their fears were only partly allayed when the national election commission said it would accept responsibility "if anyone falls under a spell or comes down ill".
[...]
A magician summoned by police established that the coconut was innocent, local officials have said. No arrests have been made.
Man this world is fucked up.
People who own Dell Latitude 6430u laptops are complaining that their pricey new computers are emitting a smell similar to cat urine. Some of them said on the company's online customer forums that the odor seems to be coming from the keyboard or palm rest.
The Round Rock, Texas, company originally advised buyers through its forums to try cleaning their keyboards with a soft cloth or compressed air, but the smell persisted.
"The machine is great, but it smells as if it was assembled near a tomcat's litter box," wrote a customer using the handle "three west" on a Dell forum back in June. "It is truly awful!"
On Wednesday, another customer writing under the handle "passflips" said he felt terrible for repeatedly scolding his cat Jerry, because he thought the elderly cat kept spraying the computer. The poster also said he wasted money on veterinarian bills in an attempt to determine whether his cat had a medical problem.
Dell said Thursday that its investigation revealed strange scent is related to a manufacturing process, which the company has since fixed. But if your portable PC isn't purrfect, Dell recommends contacting the company's technical support team to have your laptop's palm rest assembly replaced.
Company spokesman David Frink said the odor isn't related to a "biological contamination" and doesn't present a health hazard. He added that newly assembled laptops that are currently in stores aren't affected.
The laptops in question are ultrabooks designed for business use. The base model starts at $900 on Dell's website, but Dell charges close to $1,300 for higher-end versions that include Windows 8 and Intel Core i5 processors.
While laptop users may find the smell of cat urine offensive, "cat's pee" is a term sometimes used by wine lovers to describe a wine's aroma.
And while the smell coming from the Dell computers is apparently unintentional, more than one group of engineers is working on "Smell-o-Vision" TV to engage viewers' olfactory senses. In addition, a host of recent smartphone add-ons make scents, too, including the Scentee, a Japanese smartphone attachment that plugs into a phone's earphone jack and dispenses scented vapors through dedicated cartridges.
This 4 On Your Side investigation looks into the actions of police officers and doctors in Southern New Mexico.
A review of medical records, police reports and a federal lawsuit show deputies with the Hidalgo County Sheriff's Office, police officers with the City of Deming and medical professionals at the Gila Regional Medical Center made some questionable decisions.
The incident began January 2, 2013 after David Eckert finished shopping at the Wal-Mart in Deming. According to a federal lawsuit, Eckert didn't make a complete stop at a stop sign coming out of the parking lot and was immediately stopped by law enforcement.
Eckert's attorney, Shannon Kennedy, said in an interview with KOB that after law enforcement asked him to step out of the vehicle, he appeared to be clenching his buttocks. Law enforcement thought that was probable cause to suspect that Eckert was hiding narcotics in his anal cavity. While officers detained Eckert, they secured a search warrant from a judge that allowed for an anal cavity search.
The lawsuit claims that Deming Police tried taking Eckert to an emergency room in Deming, but a doctor there refused to perform the anal cavity search citing it was "unethical."
But physicians at the Gila Regional Medical Center in Silver City agreed to perform the procedure and a few hours later, Eckert was admitted.
While there, Eckert was subjected to repeated and humiliating forced medical procedures. A review of Eckert's medical records, which he released to KOB, and details in the lawsuit show the following happened:
1. Eckert's abdominal area was x-rayed; no narcotics were found.
2. Doctors then performed an exam of Eckert's anus with their fingers; no narcotics were found.
3. Doctors performed a second exam of Eckert's anus with their fingers; no narcotics were found.
4. Doctors penetrated Eckert's anus to insert an enema. Eckert was forced to defecate in front of doctors and police officers. Eckert watched as doctors searched his stool. No narcotics were found.
5. Doctors penetrated Eckert's anus to insert an enema a second time. Eckert was forced to defecate in front of doctors and police officers. Eckert watched as doctors searched his stool. No narcotics were found.
6. Doctors penetrated Eckert's anus to insert an enema a third time. Eckert was forced to defecate in front of doctors and police officers. Eckert watched as doctors searched his stool. No narcotics were found.
7. Doctors then x-rayed Eckert again; no narcotics were found.
8. Doctors prepared Eckert for surgery, sedated him, and then performed a colonoscopy where a scope with a camera was inserted into Eckert's anus, rectum, colon, and large intestines. No narcotics were found.
Throughout this ordeal, Eckert protested and never gave doctors at the Gila Regional Medical Center consent to perform any of these medical procedures.
There are major concerns about the way the search warrant was carried out. Kennedy argues that the search warrant was overly broad and lacked probable cause. But beyond that, the warrant was only valid in Luna County, where Deming is located. The Gila Regional Medical Center is in Grant County. That means all of the medical procedures were performed illegally and the doctors who performed the procedures did so with no legal basis and no consent from the patient.
In addition, even if the search warrant was executed in the correct New Mexico county, the warrant expired at 10 p.m. Medical records show the prepping for the colonoscopy started at 1 a.m. the following day, three hours after the warrant expired.
"This is like something out of a science fiction film, anal probing by government officials and public employees," Kennedy said.
Officials at Christian Science Dixon say the church was designed to preserve a tree, and hope the Internet chatter dies down. However, they did make light of the controversy on the church's Facebook page: 'Giant fig leaf coming soon.'
An Illinois church that looks like a penis from the sky will stay that way.
Officials at Christian Science Dixon are standing firm about the new structure, saying the church was designed to preserve a tree.
“We didn’t design it to be seen as what they’re seeing,” church officer Scott Shepherd told Sauk Valley Media. “And we didn’t design it to be seen from above.”
According to the Dixon church's Facebook page, the new structure was "intentionally designed around a beautiful oak tree." However, the shape of the church, as viewed on Google Earth, looks to many like a giant phallus.
The social media ribbing has been relentless.
"Check out this 'God's eye view' of a church in Dixon, Ill. Yeah, that's right, I said Dixon," read one Twitter post
"A church in Dixon, Illinois looks like a penis from up here. Of course, the church motto is 'Rising Up,'" tweeted user almightygod, who has more than 50,000 followers.
This Illinois church may want to rethink its motto of "Rising Up."
That's because the Christian Science Society's building — in the appropriately-named town of Dixon — looks like a giant phallus from space.
From street-level, there appears to be nothing comical about the edifice.
But a God's eye view transforms the erection into a dead ringer for an enormous member.
Images of the swollen-headed sanctuary have since gone viral.
SAN FRANCISCO -- Trouble is brewing in Gotham City. The Riddler is on the loose. The Penguin is up to no good. A damsel is in distress.Pics: The Penguin (http://i.imgur.com/X8ariVG.jpg) & The Riddler (https://pbs.twimg.com/media/BZIqUjGCQAAuJqI.jpg:large)
But never fear. Batkid is coming to the rescue.
San Francisco will be transformed into Gotham on Friday as 5-year-old Miles, who has successfully battled leukemia, will get to save the day as the superhero Batkid. The event is the culmination of a youngster's fertile imagination, the efforts of the Make-A-Wish Foundation and the power of social media.
About 12,000 people have signed up to help make the boy's fantasy of being a caped crusader come true, thanks to the feel-good story going viral on the Internet. They will cheer on the pint-size champion as he foils elaborately staged, nefarious plots and captures evildoers throughout San Francisco, uh, Gotham.
......
Andrew Farago, curator of the Cartoon Art Museum in San Francisco, reached out to cartoonists and DC Comics, asking for Batman-related memorabilia and original artwork for the boy.
The first to respond was Graham Nolan, who drew the Batman series for much of the 1990s and is co-creator of the Bane villain character. "And the next day, he completed this amazing drawing for Miles that has Batkid versus Bane," Farago said.
Nolan signed it: "For Miles, a real superhero!"
"We certainly all were children who had dreams of being a superhero and being larger than life," Farago added. "But I think this has touched people because most of us have never had to overcome the obstacles that this boy has."
Miles, oops, we mean Batkid, has a full day of adventures scheduled to frustrate the bad guys.
It will begin at 10 a.m. with Suhr issuing the call that Batkid is needed. Traveling by Batmobile, the masked boy will rescue the distressed damsel -- is there any other kind of damsel? -- from the Hyde Street cable-car tracks.
Then, Batkid will apprehend the Riddler in the act of robbing a bank vault. Then a flash mob will alert Batkid that the incorrigible Penguin has kidnapped Giants mascot Lou Seal. Our hero, who will rescue the mascot at AT&T Park. Then it's on to City Hall where Mayor Ed Lee will present Batkid with a key to San Francisco/Gotham and most of the volunteers will be present to cheer for Batkid.
When Gotham is in ashes #SFBatKid, then you have my permission to nap..."

Man with Beer Belly Gets Drunk Without Drinking

A Michigan man has reportedly gone to Internet-ready lengths in order to troll his ex-wife with a daily reminder of his feelings towards her.(http://i.imgur.com/wP2OfyN.jpg)
According to a person claiming to be the ex-wife's daughter, the crazy-wealthy Bloomfield Hills man, identified only as "Alan," allegedly purchased the house next door to his ex, and proceeded to move in with his daughter Tiffany.
He then went a step further and purchased an expensive bronze statue of a middle finger, which he placed on the back porch and aimed at his ex-wife's house.
As if that weren't quite enough passive aggression, Alan ensured the statue was visible 24/7 by shining a spotlight on it after dark.
"Alan and Tiffany are the best neighbors," tweeted Lenka Tuohy, "but ew who does that lololol."
Apparently the statue has had the unintended effect of pissing Tuohy off as well.
"ts hard for me to enjoy my baths now because my fav tub is in my moms bathroom which faces out towards tif and alans house," she wrote, adding a frowny-face emoticon.
When a friend pointed out that Alan's gesture was making him "look like an idiot," Tuohy concurred: "Like lol someone's not over my momma!"
FORT WORTH (CBSDFW.COM) - A teenager who killed four people while driving drunk has been sentenced to probation.
Prosecutors were pushing for 16-year-old Ethan Couch to spend 20 years in prison. However, State District Judge Jean Boyd sentenced Couch to a decade of probation.
There was no debate about who was behind the wheel last June, when Couch plowed into and killed four people. Couch has admitted to being the driver, and court records show his blood alcohol level was .24 at the time of the crash, three times the legal limit for an adult. Prosecutors also presented evidence that Couch and some friends stole beer from a Burleson Walmart on June 15, the night of the crash. After consuming the alcohol, Couch and seven others got back into his pickup to go to another store. During the trip, he hit four pedestrians, killing them. Two teens riding in Couch’s pickup were thrown from the truck and severely injured.
Couch’s attorneys argued his parents were responsible for the teen’s actions that night because of the way he had been raised. Defense attorneys put a psychologist on the stand who testified Couch was a product of wealth and got whatever he wanted. The psychologist also testified the teen was allowed to drink at a very young age and began driving at 13 years old. Defense attorneys argued Couch needed treatment, not jail and suggested a facility that costs almost half a million dollars a year.
A 16-year-old boy who drunkenly killed four people got probation this week because the judge — with no apparent irony — agreed with the boy's defense that he was a victim of "affluenza," whose parents taught him wealth and privilege shield consequences. The teen had faced up to twenty years in prison.
Sixteen-year-old Ethan Couch admitted to four counts of manslaughter after he and seven other boys stole alcohol from Walmart, piled into his car and struck and killed four pedestrians while going 70 miles per hour in a 40 zone. One of his passengers remains in the hospital with severe brain damage, and nine other bystanders were also injured.
Couch's BAC was a .24 and he also had Valium in his system. According to reports, he was belligerent at the scene, at one point saying, "I'm outta here." Prosecutors were hoping to get up to 20 years.
Couch's defense was that he was a victim of his parents' wealth and privilege; in that he never had to face consequences, which an expert summarized prior to sentencing.
He said Couch got whatever he wanted. As an example, Miller said Couch's parents gave no punishment after police ticketed the then-15-year-old when he was found in a parked pickup with a passed out, undressed 14-year-old girl.
Miller also pointed out that Couch was allowed to drive at 13. He said the teen was emotionally flat and needed years of therapy. At the time of the fatal wreck, Couch had a blood alcohol content of .24, said Tarrant County Sheriff Dee Anderson. It is illegal for a minor to drive with any amount of alcohol in his or her system.
Vodka martini, "shaken not stirred" - often said as part of a bad Sean Connery impersonation - is one of the most quotable lines from Bond.
Yet Her Majesty's top secret agent's love of the bottle would leave him impotent and at death's door.
Doctors analysing the Ian Fleming novels show James Bond polishes off the equivalent of one and a half bottles of wine every day.
They say he is not the man to trust to deactivate a nuclear bomb.
Doctors in Derby and Nottingham sat down to read the 14 Bond novels in their spare time.
With a notebook at hand they charted every day and every drink.
Excluding the 36 days Bond was in prison, hospital or rehab, the spy downed 1,150 units of alcohol in 88 days.
It works out at 92 units a week - about five vodka martinis a day and four times the recommended maximum intake for men in the UK.
The doctors' report in the festive edition of the British Medical Journal (http://www.bmj.com/cgi/doi/10.1136/bmj.f7255) concluded: "Although we appreciate the societal pressures to consume alcohol when working with international terrorists and high stakes gamblers, we would advise Bond to be referred for further assessment of his alcohol intake."
Patrick Davies, a consultant in paediatric intensive care at Nottingham University Hospitals, told the BBC: "You wouldn't want this person defusing a nuclear bomb.
"He's a very glamorous person, he gets all the girls and that's totally incompatible with the lifestyle of an alcoholic, which he is."
He said Bond would be classified in the "top whack" of problem drinkers and would be at high risk of liver damage, an early death and impotence.
"So he might be practising safe sex after all," said Dr Davies.
From Russia with vodka
He also had a "Drink and Let Drive" habit after consuming 39 units in Casino Royale then crashing in a high-speed car chase and needing two weeks in hospital.
On his biggest bender, Bond had 50 units in a single day during From Russia With Love and only 13 days in all the novels were free of the sauce.
Charting James Bond's drinking habits with age, he starts off drinking heavily in Casino Royale (1953) before seemingly starting to get his life in order as he heads towards Goldfinger (1959).
However, his intake starts to soar again and peaks at 132 units a week in You Only Live Twice (1964).
The researchers argue this may be a response to the death of his wife a year earlier in On Her Majesty's Secret Service.
They say the study is light-hearted, and did not interfere with their day jobs, but raises an important message about alcohol.
Excessive alcohol consumption is thought to cause 2.5 million deaths every year around the world.
"The level of functioning as displayed in the books is inconsistent with the physical, mental, and indeed sexual functioning expected from someone drinking this much alcohol," the doctors said.
Walter White isn’t just the protagonist from Breaking Bad: There’s a real guy in Montana with the same name, and like his more famous counterpart, he’s also in the meth business.
Walter Jack White was sentenced to 12 years in prison Monday on methamphetamine trafficking and firearms charges, the Billings Gazette reports. But unlike on AMC, the real White’s son is named Brandon, not Walter Jr.
After a shootout, authorities found 32 pounds of meth in White’s home. Authorities say he is part of a group of dealers responsible for bringing meth to Billings to distribute in the Bakken oil fields.
These are the words of the real-life Walter White from Bessemer, Alabama.
In 2008, when the popular TV drama Breaking Bad broke on to screens around the world, Walter White was already a known name in the heart of the American south's drugs trade.
From 1988, the drug maker who shares the same name with the main character in the 10-time Emmy award winning TV show was cooking and selling metamphetamine across his own county.
In a video documentary with VICE online, White, 55, explained the ups and downs of his adventure into drugs.
Working with a partner, like Walter White in the show, he claims he made the purest meth around.

On tonights episode of home improvement an Austin man decided he wanted to do something to get his place "all fired up"

The Austin Fire Department says a townhome fire that broke out in North Austin was caused by a maintenance worker trying to unfreeze water faucets with a blow torch.
McLoud police and Pottawatomie County deputies were called about 10:10 p.m. Dec. 21 to 4 Shadow Lake. Davis said he and St. Clair fought, and he thought St. Clair was dead, according to a probable cause affidavit.
When authorities questioned Davis, he said St. Clair asked him to come over for drinks. The men began arguing and Davis told officers that St. Clair “came at him,” and they began exchanging blows.
Davis told investigators that he hit St. Clair's head, causing him to lose consciousness.
Then, Davis said, he grabbed his stepfather's underwear and gave him an “atomic wedgie” by pulling the underwear over his stepfather's head.
“I'd never seen this before, but when we first looked at our victim seeing the waistband of his underwear was around his neck,” Pottawatomie County Sheriff Mike Booth said.
Doctors made a nightmarish discovery in the ear of a woman complaining of an itchy sensation.
To the surprise, and no doubt, horror of all, doctor found that a spider had crawled inside the woman’s ear canal and lived there for five days.
Two people died and three were injured after wading into a cesspool's knee-deep filth in an attempt to retrieve a woman's mobile phone and rescue those who fainted.
The two fatalities were the woman's husband and mother-in-law, a local newspaper reported.
The tragedy unfolded after the young woman in Xinxiang city, Henan, accidentally dropped her brand new phone into a cesspit when she went to the open-pit toilet on Wednesday, according to local newspaper Dahe Daily.
Her husband jumped in to find the 2,000-yuan (HK$2,510) phone but he could not breathe and soon lost consciousness.
Then, the husband's mother jumped in to save him but she, too, soon lost consciousness. In panic, the young woman followed and suffered the same fate.
Seeing his family lying helpless in waste, her father-in-law called to neighbours for help.
When they arrived, the old man also entered the cesspit but could not get out while two neighbours who jumped inside fainted.
“The smell was too strong. I lost consciousness before I could see anything,” said a neighbour.
Other villagers found a rope and tied it on rescuers who, taking turns, pulled six people out of the pit.
The husband and mother-in-law died in hospital while the woman and a neighbour remained in the intensive care unit. The father-in-law was also injured.
The woman and her husband had a one-year-old son.
Villagers said the victims were in the pit – which was knee deep in waste –for no more than five minutes.
A hospital doctor said the victims suffocated.
Villagers said the dead victims had pulses after being pulled out but the ambulance did not arrive for more than an hour.

It was a bit of an uphill struggle for Jasmine, however, as she says she asked between 50 and 60 doctors but none of them wanted to do it because they would be breaking ethics codes.
It took two years to save up for the surgery but it has now been finished, topped off with a tattooed nipple.
She told Real Radio 104.1: My whole dream is to get this show on MTV.
Her mother and sister are no longer talking to her (Picture: Facebook/Jasmine Tridevil)
‘I’m dumping every penny I have into this. If this doesn’t work, I’m through.
She denies that she had the extra breast put on to get fame and fortune.
Jasmine added: ‘I got it because I wanted to make myself unattractive to men. Because I don’t want to date anymore.’
However, her mum and sister will not speak to her and her father is ashamed of her.

Detainees were subjected to "rectal feeding," a process by which food is pumped into the anus...

Invention: no more noisy and smelly farts with this silencer anus
We grant you, the title has something to smile ... But its inventor, it is an invention that will revolutionize the world!
When we fired up the skin around the anus vibrate, which vibrates the air and therefore produces a sound. This sound can be more or less serious: the more anal muscles are tense, the more the anus vibrate faster and the sound is acute.
To put an end to all that, a Chinese from Wuhan has developed a small object that can make your farts silent and odorless.
How does it work?
Nothing more simple, just insert a plastic tube with a scented cotton in your back. When you fart, gas will be directly expelled from the tube, avoiding to vibrate the skin around your anus. scented cotton, he will allow to filter and mask the smell ...
During surgery, which was done when the girl was about 3 weeks old, the surgeons discovered two fetuses between her liver and her kidney.
One fetus weighed 0.3 ounces (9.3 grams) and the other 0.5 ounces (14.2 grams) — corresponding to about 8 and 10 weeks' gestation, the case report said.
Each of the babies had an umbilical cord that linked to a placenta-like mass in the girl's belly.
The baby girl was obviously too young to have conceived the fetuses herself.

I feel like I should hurry up and pass Medicaid expansion.
Anything else while I've got the place to myself?
Just came back from the Senate chamber. All votes were unanimous.
Medicaid = expanded. Teachers = paid. Film = jobs. What's next?
This is going to be like "Night at the Museum" except at the end we'll have a stronger middle class.

Hey Charlotte - it's your airport.
Feels good to bring that controversy to an end.
Just had a big debate over whether to cut our university system even more. In a 1-0 vote, we decided that would be a terrible idea.
Our criminal justice system is a repository for the mentally ill and chemically addicted. Just expanded mental health care to tackle these problems on the front-end.
I just defeated a filibuster because I needed a drink of water. That removes any remaining opposition to expanding child care subsidies for low-income, working parents.

The San Francisco district attorney’s office on Friday dropped all charges against three San Francisco sheriff’s deputies accused of forcing inmates to fight for their entertainment.
[..]
But prosecutors claim they were forced to dismiss the charges this week because the same sheriff’s department that employed the accused mishandled the investigation and destroyed evidence, including by smashing a lead investigator’s laptop with a hammer because it had gotten a virus.
“From what we’re being told, if you use it, you know, you might use it one or twice and be fine, but the third time when your body hits that allergic reaction, it can kill you,” Sgt. Charles Sutphin told WCHS.
“It’s a cheap fix, and you don’t know what their overall result of their usage of this is going to be,” Sutphin added.
Physical effects of using the wasp spray include erratic behavior and extreme swelling and redness of the hands and feet.
“Drugs are so bad around here. It’s so available to people, and then all the time trying things new that we wouldn’t even think about,” resident Diana Ferguson said.
“We have great grand babies, and to think what they’re going to grow up in, and what’s going to be available to them, and what people are going to get them to try… It’s really scary,” she added.
“The Food and Drug Administration is advising consumers not to [..] use Big Penis, a [..] sexual enhancement,” the agency wrote in a statement.
Big Penis (a.k.a Big Penis USA) [..] according to packaging. The FDA operates several International Mail <sp?> Facilities around the country, monitoring incoming packages for illegal, unapproved, and counterfeit[..]s, found Big Penis at one of the facilities [..] that the FDA regulates.
But the big problem for Big Penis is that [it] doesn’t declare [..] that’s a violation of FDA regulations.
Accidentally [..] hoping for Big Penis’ eponymous effects, can be dangerous. [..] can interact with [..] people with high blood pressure and diabetes, and can dangerously lower blood pressure. And there are other negative effects of taking too much [..]: One man’s vision turned permanently red-tinted[..].
This isn’t Big Penis’ first run-in with authorities, either. Last year, the Australian government’s Therapeutic Goods Administration also [known as] The TGA teamed up with the Australian Border Force to stop [it] from entering Australia, according to a release.
After attempting to quiet down his upstairs neighbors, a frustrated man pulled a handgun and fired multiple shots into his ceiling. The final one wound up in his face instead.
On Sunday night, police responded to a call from an apartment building on Baseline Road and 36th Street in Phoenix, according to KXNV. When they got there, they found a man with a gunshot injury to his face.
After interviewing witnesses, police determined that the man had been upset by his upstairs neighbors making too much noise around midnight. He attempted to confront them directly, to no effect.
Phoenix police sergeant Vince Lewis told KTAR that the man "had banged on the (neighbors') door, yelling at them, trying to make contact during this argument." He then headed back downstairs and allegedly retrieved a handgun from his apartment.
Police say that he then pointed the gun upwards towards his ceiling and discharged several shots, the last of which somehow wound up striking him in the face. No other people were injured in the incident.
(CNN) Police in Tennessee arrested a man named Tupac A. Shakur, 40, after they say he pulled a knife on them and was found with methamphetamine.
Officers with the Johnson City Police Department, about 25 minutes from Bristol, received calls Friday about Shakur who had active warrants for his arrest from another department, according to a news release from Johnson police.
When officers arrived at the scene, they saw a car with Shakur inside. Officers attempted to arrest Shakur, but he pulled away and reached for his waistband, the release said.
Shakur then turned toward officers with a knife before officers took him down. Officers found a syringe and baggies of meth on Shakur, the release said.
Shakur was charged with aggravated assault, simple meth possession and having unlawful drug paraphernalia. He is being held at the Washington County Detention Center on a $18,000 bond. He is set to be arraigned Monday, the release said.
It was not clear Sunday whether Shakur has legal representation.
Shakur shares the same name, even the same middle initial, as the late rapper Tupac Shakur who was killed in September 1996 at age 25.
US officials remove Black Panther's Wakanda from list of trading partners
Trade talks between Captain America and Black Panther didn’t quite pan out, it seems. Wakanda, the fictional home of the Marvel superhero, is no longer listed as a free trade partner of the US.
Until Wednesday, the made-up east African country was listed on the drop-down menu for the agriculture department’s foreign agricultural service’s tariff tracker along with Colombia, Costa Rica, Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, Panama and Peru. The department (USDA) said the comic book country was added to its systems while it conducted testing.
[...]
Amongst the commodities listed under Wakanda were “live asses”, “mules and hinnies” and several other farm animals. Potatoes and chestnuts were also reportedly listed.
Wakanda’s most famous agricultural commodity, those heart-shaped purple flowers that appear to give Black Panther his god-like powers, do not appear to have been listed.
I think the fact that Cruise ships are huge and naval patrol boats are smol helped it survive the "ramming". The story even describes the cruise ship as being 6 times the size in water displacement.
https://www.portandterminal.com/hit-run-cruise-ship-update-venezuelan-navy-fired-shots-at-cruise-ship/
But what about the warning shots? Why would the Venezuelan Navy want to force the Resolute off-course and into an anchorage at a port in their territorial waters?
One scenario is the standard Venezuelan President Maduro, tin-pot dictator, conspiracy stuff. Take it with a grain of salt.
“The cruise ship “RCGS Resolute” is not a cruise ship. It is a military pirate ship that attacked the Navy patrol boat. It has 160 paramilitaries on board (possibly more) and, denounces the CEOFANB, equipped with inflatable boats to mobilize commandos and execute night raids”

Diosdado Cabello, the No. 2 most powerful person in the country and eminence grise of Venezuela’s vast intelligence network, insisted that the government had infiltrated the plot for months.So Venezuela created an untrained unfunded army to 'defeat'? Reminds me of those urban legends of a small fringe group somewhere in the rural US steadily growing members with the newer members becoming more and more radical and fanatical to the point where they would start calling for forcible action, occupation, uprising, or outright mass killings. This in turn would repel away the original members as too crazy, further shifting the group off the extreme deep end. Eventually, the FBI would catch wind of them and launch a raid only to find out that all the members left were actually local police, state police, ATF, CIA, other FBI agents, and so on all working on their own individual stings.
“We knew everything,” said Cabello. “Some of their meetings we had to pay for. That’s how infiltrated they were.”

The contract’s Attachments D and J mention embedding “media teams at all stages of the operation to record documentary style footage”, while Attachment J gives the signers of the document first right of refusal for all attempts to purchase copyrighted material related to the operation
While there is no evidence that the RCGS Resolute was in any way involved in “Operación Gedeón”, the Venezuelan government’s statements following the sinking of the Naiguatá suggest that they were on high alert for a seaborne incursion into Venezuela by one or more small teams of mercenaries.
San Diego police surrounded a Wells Fargo bank in Chollas View early Wednesday after a man broke in through a window, claiming he wanted to use a microwave inside the breakroom to warm up some Hot Pockets.
Just after his arrest, a freelance photographer captured video of the man telling police about the Hot Pockets and how he had eaten two of the sandwiches while inside the bank. The photographer asked the man if the ordeal was “worth it.”
“Was it worth it? Yeah, it was worth it,” the man – as he was being handcuffed – replied without hesitation. “A Hot Pocket? Hell, yeah.”

Police in Vietnam have confiscated an estimated 345,000 used condoms which had been cleaned and resold as new, state media reported.
[...]
Police said the bags weighed over 360kg (794 lbs), equivalent to around 345,000 condoms, according to VTV.
[...]
The owner of the warehouse said they had received a “monthly input of used condoms from an unknown person”.
[...]
VTV said it was not clear how many of the recycled condoms had already been sold. The detained woman said she had received $0.17 (£0.13) for every kilogram of recycled condoms she produced.
The detained woman said she had received $0.17 (£0.13) for every kilogram of recycled condoms she produced.
QuoteThe detained woman said she had received $0.17 (£0.13) for every kilogram of recycled condoms she produced.
So that's (0.17$/kg)*[(1.043 g/mL)*(5 mL) + 2 g/rubber]= 0.122¢ per used filled condom. All the seized condoms would have been worth $423.16 at trade in.

s Michael Williams drove past a gathering in the yard of an Opa-locka, Fla., home on Sunday night, police said, his 10-year-old son fired a barrage of paintballs into the crowd from inside his father’s van.
It was the 10-year-old’s idea, police later said: He’d asked his dad if he would take him on a “drive by shooting” with his paintball gun, and Williams, 26, allegedly said yes.
But as the paintballs peppered the crowd, at least one of the victims thought the gunshots were real. So the man pulled out his own gun and fired a single bullet at the van — wounding the young boy and sending him to the hospital.
[...]
The boy’s father told WSVN that his son had been engaged in a paintball battle with several other children before the Sunday evening shooting. A witness in the neighborhood also told the station that Williams and his son had been wearing “ski masks and hoodies” during the attack, which Williams denied.
When the boy began firing paintballs, police said a resident named Gregory Barns believed “he and his family were under attack,” the Herald reported. Barns quickly fired one shot at Williams’s van.
After being struck with the bullet, police said, the 10-year-old fell out of the van and was run over as the vehicle continued to move. Williams then scooped the boy back into the van and drove home, where the boy’s mother called 911, according to a police report.
