Ashley Biden's ex boyfriend is trying to sell a tape of the current Vice President's daughter snorting cocaine at a party. The New York Post's lawyers have seen the video say that the video shows woman with light skin and long dark hair taking a straw and snorts a line of white powder. Apparently at one point in the video she talks about her dad.

Death to Casual Friday

Welcome to Fort Lauderdale, Florida. David Daley was placed on administrative leave back in January due to a taking casual Friday to an extreme. Dailey stripped down to nothing but his socks and walked into a coworkers office. He was seen earlier in the day with a sign that said "It's Friday" and another sign that read, "Let's get naked."

Daniela Metz signed a waiver of prosecution, she states that she wasn't looking to get anyone into more trouble. The police report shows that Dailey had gradually progressed in his passes at Metz. Back in mid January, Metz was looking at body waxes and Dailey saw it on her PC. Later in the day, he called her into his office, where he purportedly had pictures of naked women on his computer that had "waxed themselves."

Throughout the next week, Dailey made more passes at Metz, which she ignored. Then casual Friday came along and Dailey called Metz's office and told her "I will do it if you do it.." in which she replied "Go Ahead." It was after the 6 times she told him to go away that he decided to show back up stripped down to his socks. When city officials found out about the incident, Dailey was put on administrative leave, only to resign on Feb 2nd.

Wife's Affair with a PlayStation

Carol Cannom, 46, was stabbed to death by her partner of 30 years. Malcolm Palmer, 62, was kicked out of his own bedroom due to his wife's obsession with a PlayStation unit and a copy of Grand Theft Auto.

They originally bought the PlayStation for their son, but Cannom was quickly addicted to playing the game throughout the night. Prior to the attack, Cannom told Palmer to start looking for a new home and threatened him that he would never see his kids again. Palmer was convinced that she was having an affair and attacked her with two knives.

Their 10 year old son contacted emergency services, where operators were able to hear the struggle in the background. Soon after Palmer picked up the phone to say, "I'm sorry. I think I've killed her."

"Each assault was constituted by responsible ladies holding a knife to the boy,'' Mr Glustein said.The assaults were serious despite the pair's lawyers describing them as "mid-range'' in severity, Mr Glustein said.

Sunday provides the a fresh start for the week. California is going to need the time to reflect on the $8 Million that was just awarded to a California man who hit wild pigs on a California Highway. The jury decided that his B.A.C. being over .10 had nothing to do with the accident.

Rolling Death Mobile

Welcome to the People's Republic of China.The worlds most populated country and home to the new Death Mobile. Due to the expected rise of executions (estimated 10,000 for this year), the Chinese found a Nazi Tool that may have use for themselves.

Jinguan Auto created the high tech execution mobile. The $86,000 van can reach speeds of 80 M.P.H. and looks like a police vehicle on patrol on the outside. On the inside, it looks like a high tech operating theatre.

Every execution is monitored by video to make sure that procedure is followed to perfection. So it would be possible to describe an execution to the slightest detail.

The vans actually started trial runs over the last 3 years and all media on the vans were suppressed during the Olympics to prevent complaints about human rights. Now they are being deployed across all of China. "These vans will deters others from committing crimes and has more impact," said one official.

The Nazi's used to have the "Gas Wagon," that they use to slaughter criminals, the mentally ill, and the Jews. They adapted vans to be mobile gas chambers from the 1940's through the end of the second World War.

I am the LAW, now pass me a drink.

Corporal Fernando Martinez, 33 year Veteran of the Montgomery County Police Department was arrested for drunk driving in his Patrol car on Friday night. Police officials say that he crashed his cruiser into the concrete barrier on Route 270 around 11 p.m.

When other officers arrived on the scene, they smelled alcohol on the officer's Martinez's breath and he failed a field sobriety test. Luckily no one was hurt in the accident, but Martinez has been suspended while they are investigating the incident.

AT&T Sings a Sad Song to the RIAA

For the last few years the RIAA has been throwing their weight around at ISP's and typically the ISP would buckle to their demands. Typically the RIAA would want the suspected thieves internet access temporarily blocked and notice sent that they have been caught.

Well the balance of power has changed and one major provider in internet services told the RIAA to stuff it. Jim Cicconi, a senior executive Vice President at AT&T, says that a lot of purported relationship with the music industry is just untrue.

Cicconi said, "AT&T is not going to suspend or terminate anyone's policy without a court order." He wants to make sure that his customers are aware that they won't buckle, unless a judge orders them too.

On Tuesday, the Leadership Music Digital Summit was taking place, when Cicconi confirmed that they would send notices to individuals that are accused of pirating music by the RIAA.

The RIAA has been trying to implement a graduated response program for repeat offenders, but there has been some confusion on what it involves. It remains up to the ISP's to decide on the plan of action and implementation. Of course the RIAA's ideal program would have the service suspended for a limited time for "Chronic" offenders.

"We're pleased to be in constructive discussions with several ISPs," said an RIAA spokesman. "We're making important progress, and doing so in a manner consistent with everyone's respective priorities. We're grateful that some of the industry's leading executives came to Nashville and talked through these important issues."

AT&T confirmed that on Weds, they are attaching a "cover letter," along with the RIAA's cease and desist notice. The cover letter does contain a clause that does state the company can terminate the service, but that just a legality.

"It's a standard part of everybody's terms of service," Cicconi said. "If somebody is engaging in illegal activity, it basically gives us the right to do it...We're not a finder of fact and under no circumstances would we ever suspend or terminate service based on an allegation from a third party. We're just simply reminding people that they can't engage in illegal activity. What we do is send notices and keep track of violations and IP addresses," Cicconi said. "It's our view that any stronger action has got to rest with the copyright owner...That's what the courts are there for."

Grammy Throwdown

Happy Friday! I hope everyone is enjoying the March Madness. Its good to see the Men's and Women's teams getting plenty of on-air time. Unfortunately there are a few students in Oklahoma City that may have over "enjoyed" March Madness, due to the outbreak of syphilis.

I understand that it is Oklahoma, but just ask the teens attending parties where unprotected group sexual activity is encouraged to provide some kind of protection. Usually condoms, pills, or anything with Courtney Love in it.

Toad Stomping Goodness

Sydney, Australia - one of the most amazing and beautiful cities in the world is soon to be the home to the biggest toad massacre of all time. The home of the poisonous Cane Toad, has plagued Australians with its breeding rapidly, eating "voraciously", and killing just about anything that dares eat it.

Officials decided that the easiest way to combat this plague, is to hold a festival of mass killing the toads. Keeping a green theme to the massacre they will turn the corpses of the toad into fertilizer for the farmers that have been battling this war for years.

"It's just a circle of poetic justice!" Toad Day Out organizer Lisa Ahrens said. "Seventy-five years later, they're a benefit to the cane farmer."

Now these toads originally came from South America. The Cane Toad is known for spreading disease (salmonella) and producing highly toxic venom.

"The cane toad is probably the most disgusting creature and the most destructive creature," said Queensland politician Shane Knuth, a longtime loather of cane toads who came up with the Toad Day Out idea. "They're killing our native wildlife, they're taking over our habitat and they're hopping all through this country."

Organizers are asking people to capture them in toad traps and to not harm the toads inhumanly. All this article makes me thing of is the "Weasel Stomping" video from Robot Chicken.

McStabbin or Sir Stabsalot?

Oh Canada, well Edmonton, Canada is the location of the next story. 2 men got into an argument in a steam room at Grant MacEwan College, which got one man so hot under the collar that he stabbed the other outside of the steam room later.

Inspector Terry Rochio said that the local police were on a man hunt for 3 men, after the 49 year old man was stabbed in the back in the college's gym locker room.

“It appears from initial interviews there was an argument over, of all things ... the rocks in the steam room,” said Rocchio. “The argument happened in the steam room,” he said. “Some people left, came back and that’s when the altercation took place.”

The inspector also stated that they are not sure if the 3 men that they are looking for did the actual stabbing. Also they were unable to detect what kind of weapon was used to stab the man.

Those Coins Were Not Pulled from a Fountain

A Washington man decided that the best way to pay his traffic ticket of just over $200, was to send change in a plastic bag filled with coins and urine.

County employees told a local TV station (KPTV) that the package didn't smell, until someone opened it. Postal officials have stated that it is okay to mail urine or other fluids, as long as they are packaged properly (not leaking or smelling).

Unfortunately for the Washington Man, the county court has a policy that they can only accept change up to $20. Needless to say, court workers had to return his money. The man now owes $271 in fines and late fees. The county states that they don't intend to pursue the matter any further as long as he pays the $271.

"That's something I can't wrap my mind around," said Sgt. Phil Anderchuk, of the Multnomah County Sheriff's Office. "The thought process of acting consciously and consummating the act of urinating in a box full of coins that someone is going to receive."

Its not the Solo Mile High Club

Grammy Winning Elvis Crespo is being investigated for allegedly masturbating in front of other passengers on a plane Thursday. A woman said that she saw him performing a sex act on the plane that was going from Houston to Miami, according to Miami-Dade County police. The FBI is investigating the incident, due to the fact the this happened over U.S. Air Space.

Officers interviewed the singer upon his arrival in Miami, but no charges have been filed at this time. When asked about the purported sex act, Cespro's reply was, "I don't recall doing that."

Patricia Perea, 52, of Canyon Gate, Texas told police that she was sitting next to the singer. She continued by saying after about 15 minutes after the plane left the gate, he covered himself in a blanket and began to handle his business, then exposed himself to her.

Boxing Dominates the 90's

0
The spotlight of sports was reopened for a 5th sport to move back into the main stream, since wrestling and major television had parted ways. Boxing has been around for thousands of years and has always had a role in sports, but its opening into American homes really surged in the 1990's.

A new generation of boxing started in the 1990's with characters like “Iron” Mike Tyson, Lennox "The Lion" Lewis, Riddick "Big Daddy" Bowe, George “Big” Foreman, and Evander “Real Deal” Holyfield. Mike Tyson seemed to grab most headlines, due to winning 12 fights in the first round by knock out and capturing the heavyweight title by the age of 20 (prior to 1990). Which brought the boxing back into the spotlight. It also helped that he had Don King as the outspoken promoter that always caused a scene before the fights.

“Iron” Mike Tyson versus Evander “Real Deal” Holyfield in 1996 was the rebirth of 2 fighters and the spotlight remained on boxing for the rest of the decade. Holyfield was labeled as “washed up” and an easy win for Tyson, but that was the same line they used for Buster Douglas (who gave Tyson his first knock out in his career). Holyfield won the fight in the 11th round with a TKO on Tyson, which shocked the world and led to a rematch a year later.

“The Sound and Fury” was set for June 28, 1997. Mills Lane was the referee for the boxing match known across the world. Almost 2 million household bought the fight on PPV, the highest buy rate record of that time. This time the fight would have a different outcome. Only lasting 3 rounds, after Tyson was disqualified for biting Holyfield's ear.

The biting incident would be mocked in TV Shows, skits, and radio programs across the united states for years to come. Unfortunately, this led to the absence of boxing from the main stream and back into a Pay Per View/ Premium event.

Louisiana was trying to help another company keep open the old Pilgrim Pride chicken processing plant. P.E.T.A. opted for a different solution. They tried to get the state to open a “Chicken Empathy Museum.” They wanted the museum to include a playground for kids, that would include cage-like playscapes.

"I guess the whole thing would be a chicken wing, right?" said Ashley Byrne, campaign coordinator for PETA. "Actually, we did plan to serve faux chickens, vegetarian chickens made from healthy plant protein in the museum restaurant, along with an array of other tasty vegetarian food. As a gift from PETA, part of our proposal was that each visitor 12 years old and younger would have a plush chicken toy with a tag reading, 'I am not a nugget,' " Ashley said.

60 Ft. Do It Yourself Dong

Andy and Clare McInnes thought that April Fools came early when a news company contacted them about a phallic design that graced their newly finished roof. They were delighted that the building crew had just finished with the flat roof on their £1million house.

Their son Rory, 18, decided that he would make his house stand out after watching a documentary on Google Earth. For over the next year only Rory knew of the stand out design, until a helicopter pilot spotted it and hovered over the house so passengers could take photos of it.

Andy said, “It’s an April Fool’s joke, right? There’s no way there’s a 60ft phallus on top of my house.”

When Andy pressed on the kids trying to figure out which made the design, Rory was in Brazil as part of a gap years travel, he could be heard saying, “Oh, you’ve found it then!” (laughing the entire time).

Skateboard Ramp + Dispute = Fire

Welcome to Orange City, Florida. Lewis Smith, 45, repeatedly asked neighborhood man to remove a skateboard ramp from the road near his home. Lewis, neighbors, and the man that build the ramps were found by Orange City Deputies arguing over the ramps.

Sheriff's spokesman Gary Davidson said that Lewis was arrested and charged with criminal mischief on Sunday, because Lewis decided that the best way to resolve the ramp issue was to set them on fire. He was released from the Volusia County Branch Jail on his own recognizance.

Paying taxes on sex?

Meet Democratic Senator Bob Coffin from Las Vegas. He has proposed to have a new tax added onto prostitution. He states that the new tax would raise around $2 million a year for the state.

He wants the patrons of both legal and illegal prostitutes to pay an extra $5 per session under the new bill he created. A lobbyist for the state's legal brothels volunteered to be taxed, in an effort to guarantee their survival.

“I think we will support it,” George Flint, a spokesman for the state’s brothel industry, said of Coffin’s bill. In rural counties of Nevada there are eight major brothels and 17 smaller houses of prostitution, said Flint.

When Coffin was asked about how the state would collect the tax from the independent street walkers, he replied that when the business tax was first implemented, it wasn't collected from all those required to pay it.


The 1980's

Big Hair and bright colors describe the music and styles of the 80's. This new age brought an opening to flamboyant, loud, wild, and crazier people than the typical person in society. This is when Wrestling was able to grab a stranglehold of the available sports light and saw some of its characters movie into the everyday media. Wrestling characters like Hulk Hogan, Captain Lou Albano, Andre the Giant, Rowdy Roddy Piper, the Iron Sheik, Sgt. Slaughter, and “Mean” Gene Okerlund were made into a Saturday morning cartoon as part of the “Rock N' Roll” wrestling. NBC supported the sport with “Saturday Night Main Events,” which would air almost ever 2 months with the ever popular wrestling stars.

Wrestling reached its Pinnacle in 1987 with Wrestlemania III, but slowly faded out of the spotlight. The WWF (now WWE), dropped to rock bottom in the 1990's due to all kinds of legal issues ranging from sexual harassment charges to steroid abuse.
