Strippers for Obama!

I'm a little confused by the story, but I think I agree with the club owner, appreciate the strippers and disagree with the King

Activists protest Va. strip club's Obama banner
28, 3:16 PM (ET)By STEVE SZKOTAK

RICHMOND, Va. (AP) - Activists gathered outside a downtown strip club Monday to denounce as racist a banner depicting President Obama as the Joker from Batman.
"Not only is it an attack on the president, but also on all men and people of African descent," King Salim Khalfani, president of the Virginia NAACP, said of what he called "the abomination that's on the wall" outside Club Velvet.
The banner, unfurled within the past few days, depicts Obama as Heath Ledger's grotesque Joker character from "The Dark Knight." The president is shown with smeared red lipstick, a white face and darkened eyes. The word "socialism" is spelled out below the caricature.
Dancer Kaitlyn McGee handed out a statement from club owner Sam Moore, who did not appear. The statement described him as a "staunch libertarian" and said the banner was intended to show his displeasure with Obama's policies. McGee walked through the crowd with a sign that read "Strippers 4 Obama" to show that Moore is not opposed to the president himself.
"Mr. Moore would like to say that anyone who believes that his banner is racist is an ignoramus," it read.
But the activists said the Joker banner was typical of what they called escalating attacks on the president - from depictions of Obama as Hitler at rallies to South Carolina Rep. Joe Wilson's "You lie!" outburst during Obama's recent nationally televised address to Congress.
"Racism is as American as apple pie," Khalfani said. "The presence of a president that as African blood is very, very troublesome to many in this country."
McGee, who described herself as a waitress and dancer, said customers had not complained since the banner was unfurled at the busy intersection in Shockoe Bottom, a historic entertainment and residential district.
"As far as I'm concerned, it doesn't really bother me," she said. "You could say a lot worse things about him."

Michael Jackson, world famous pedophile, dead at 50Rick MoranNot speak ill of the dead, you say?You can speak ill of the dead if they have done "ill" while they were alive. And there isn't anything much more "ill" than molesting a kid.To those who claim Michael Jackson was exonerated of the crime of sexual molestation of a minor, I would ask a simple question; would you allow your teen or pre teen son to spend a night at Jackson's home unchaperoned?I thought so.Perhaps if you are eager to bestow such an honor on your son, you too wish to use your child for a gigantic payday as apparently some parents over the years did with their children, allowing them to stay with Jackson and being paid to keep quiet about abuse.As for Jackson's impact on the world, it says something truly awful about us that so many people would become rabid fans of this man of little talent. As a child with "The Jackson Five," Michael had a nice little voice and was very cute shaking his hips like an adult (The sexualization of children Michael's age when he performed with his brothers is another article entirely.). But as an adult, Jackson's voice - OK for pop but no great shakes for any other milieu - was thin as a reed with an annoying false vibrato and a squeaky "hiccup" that supposedly drove female fans nuts.His "dancing" was unique but repetitive. And I find it incredible that some would actually compare him to people with genuine talent like Gene Kelly or Fred Astaire. It goes without saying that neither of those two giants had to grab their crotch on stage to excite their fans.Gregiry Hines was a superior dancer. Just about any Motown artist of the 60's and 70's was a superior singer. Michael Jackson, the total entertainment package, was a good showman but hardly an earth shattering talent. The outpouring of tributes to him today is a fascinating exercise in wishful - perhaps delusional thinking. Proclaiming anyone "King of Pop" and waxing lyrical about how his talent impacted the music world is a misnomer. It wasn't Jackson's "talent" that affected future pop artists but rather his "style" - a completely different kettle of fish altogether. It certainly was original but worthy of the kind of encomiums we are reading and hearing today? Not hardly.In short, he was not a "no-talent" but rather a performer of limited gifts who, through savvy marketing, a recognition of trends (such as producing music videos that went far beyond concert performances that was standard fare for most MTV selections), and an eccentric personality, hit the world of pop music at exactly the right moment in history.A comparison to Elvis Presley is useful here. Presely was also a performer of limited ability but hit America at exactly the right time in history when his shockingly unique style (and having Tom Parker, a man ahead of his time, managing his career), brought unusual success. Elvis was also a great showman and his later career was sustained by his aging female fans who never tired of watching him grind out the old favorites on a Las Vegas stage.Perhaps it is the nature of pop music today to elevate these performers to heights undreamed of by real talents like Sinatra, Garland, Sammy Davis, Jr., and others whose pop stylings will last forever - even beyond the lifetimes of their fans. I say this not out of spite because I genuinely enjoyed Thriller, Billie Jean, and Beat It as well as other pop music of the day. Although limited in their artistic success, performers like Jackson reflected their times perfectly as all good pop music does. But does this mean that we should elevate Jackson to an artistic pedestal. Not hardly.I sympathize with many in Jackson's family today. Losing a brother or a son is always a tragedy. But I don't sympathize with Jackson's rabid fans. Losing oneself in the doings of someone who is deliberately manipulating your emotions is a form of narcissm. I suppose like most, I will mourn Jackson's passing as I have many icons of my youth who have left us. Farrah Fawcett, who also died yesterday, elicits the same yearning in my heart to return to what in my misty memory were simpler times when responsibilities were few and I had the optimism and confidence that the whole world was before me for the taking.I really wish the media weren't making such a big deal of Jackson's death. Other, more vital stories like Iran, health care, and the continuing power grabs of the Obama administration are given short shrift. But covering Jackson means a big audience so one can hardly fault the media for trying to cash in. They'd be crazy not to milk the story for all its worth.In 100 years, will historians be amazed at the popularity of people like Jackson? Hopefully by then, we will have outgrown our compulsion to place these people on a mountaintop and all but worship their every move.

Dance review: Dolls' 'Romeo' recasting is a mashup that fails to gel
By Linda Shapiro Special to the Pioneer Press
Updated: 06/22/2009 12:36:47 PM CDT

Choreographer Myron Johnson's recasting of Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet" as a tale of same-sex, star-crossed lovers would appear to be a dovetailing of like sensibilities. Like the Bard, Johnson mixes elements of high art and popular culture in entertaining works with plenty of poetry and imbedded social commentary.
His "Romiette and Juleo" honors the GLBT community and strongly condemns those who persecute it. Ballet of the Dolls, his company of dancers, perform with their usual commitment and brio. But ultimately this work seems cobbled together from undigested fragments rather than honed from a deeply felt theatrical vision.
The production references "West Side Story," the courts of medieval Italy and contemporary GLBT culture. But the jarring collage of music (Enigma, Mary J. Blige, Leonard Bernstein and Meshell Ndegeocello, to name a few) tends to overpower the dancing, encrusting it with sentimentality, heavy metal and heavy messages.
Johnson splits Romeo and Juliet into three couples — one heterosexual (Joy Langer and Grant Wittaker) and two same-sex (Joel Klausler and Doug Melroe, Lisa Conklin and Stephanie Fellner). They are innocents in a corrupt world, harassed by homophobic adults and lured by transgressive delights. In a club scene, for example, the couples observe a group of androgynes in bras and jockstraps bumping and grinding their way through a steamy routine that hints, alluringly, of multiple identities and erotic possibilities.
high extensions or tightly wound in speedy turns from exhibition jazz and club dance, fused with bland balletic gestures. The dancing often looks generic, its relationship to the music unfocused. To Bernstein's explosive, rhythmically complex "Dance at the Gym," for instance, Johnson sets a tepid mambo.
While this may be a reference to the decorum of medieval court dance, it comes off as weak tea served with hot salsa.
There are certainly jarring scenes of violence and mayhem. Guys in black suits round up three of the protagonists, throw hoods over their heads and mime some serious trashing and bashing as the lovers look helplessly. The scene graphically connects events like the Stonewall riots to prisoner abuse at Abu Ghraib in ways both compelling and simplistic — like propaganda poster art. Far more poignant is the final scene in which the three "prisoners" who have died are gently manipulated like rag dolls by their grieving partners, who then dispatch themselves with daggers.
In a section that truly captures the poignancy of these outcasts and their predicament, two nuns bless and unite the couples to a lilting, lively spiritual that goes uncredited in the program. Through simple and uncluttered walking, kneeling, rocking and surging in kaleidoscopic patterns, the dancers reflect the ebb and flow of healing currents and the fluidity of sexual identity. Riddled with the spirit of ecumenical inclusion, the nuns begin shaking, quaking and moving on out. The healing, however briefly, has begun.

I'm outraged

Can you believe they show Jonas Brothers movies at school? That is despicable!

Children shown porn movie at primary school
Tuesday, June 16, 2009

Schoolchildren as young a five who were looking forward to a Jonas Brothers film were shown a hard-core porn movie instead.

The children were subjected to 45 seconds of the X-rate filth before a horrified teacher frantically ripped out the DVD player's plug.
The headteacher of the New York City school pledged to find whoever was responsible for the "despicable" act.
Parents initially heard the DVD player had been locked in his office before the film was shown- but it later emerged it had been in an open area where anyone could have tampered with it.
Mum Rona Easton told the New York Post: "My son told his friend he saw a naked lady at school."
She added: "I thought he was just being silly. It's appalling."
Five classes had been taken into an auditorium to watch "Camp Rock," a Disney Channel movie starring the Jonas Brothers according to headteacher Robert Marchi.
But he wrote to parents that a "very explicit pornographic video came on the screen."
He said: "This was extremely upsetting to the students and staff members in attendance . . . I am deeply sorry that this episode took place at PS 17. I know that we will make every effort to find out who was responsible for this despicable act."

I thought he could have any women he wanted !!!???

Indian sex workers learn karate
Prostitutes in the southern Indian state of Tamil Nadu have begun taking karate lessons to protect themselves from violent customers and pimps.
The women say they were so fed up with abuse that they approached a local community group for help.
The organisers hope the course in the ancient self-defence technique sends a message that violence against sex workers must stop.
India is thought to have nearly three million sex workers.
Most live on the fringes of society and have few legal rights.
Correspondents say that means they often have little or no choice but to put up with violence and harassment.
'I will kick him'
Dressed in white and wearing masks, the first 75 women to take the karate course in the coastal city of Madras (Chennai) had to brave intense heat as they practised their moves.
Through karate we can protect ourselves and also save others
Martha, sex worker
They trained together for nearly five hours a day, mostly learning how to fight. Now the women say they feel more able to protect themselves.
"Even though I may not be able to attack a group of five men when they attack me, I am fully confident now that I can escape," one sex worker, Santhi (not her real name), told the BBC Tamil service.
"I think I can easily handle one man at any given time. I face physical abuse on a daily basis and have been abused and been beaten up by my clients many times.
"A thug once stripped me of my clothes and told me to run naked. From now on, I think nobody can do that to me. I will kick him."
The Indian Community Welfare Organisation is providing the training free of charge. Its founder secretary, AJ Hariharan, said Tamil Nadu state alone was thought to have about 90,000 commercial sex workers.
"Many of them, particularly those who operate individually on the streets face physical abuse on a daily basis - not only from their customers, but also from local thugs and policemen," he told the BBC Tamil service.
"They attack these commercial sex workers, rob their money and force them into having unprotected sex. We want to train them in karate so that they can protect themselves from these violent attacks."
Mr Hariharan said the aim was to build the self esteem and self confidence of the women.
"We are going to train 300 sex workers in the second phase and 500 sex workers after that.
"We are trying to send a loud and clear message to those who abuse these sex workers that they cannot abuse them any more.

Erotic 'daggering' dance craze causing bodily harm

* "Daggering" dance craze controversial
* Spate of broken penises in Jamaica
* Facing government crackdown

AN erotic dance craze is thought to be the cause of a recent spate of broken penises in Jamaica, and now faces a government crackdown.

"Daggering", a lewd dance style where couples simulate dry sex in various positions to the beat of the music, is characterised by over-the-top gyrating, heavy pelvis-thrusting and daredevil leaps.

Many couples have taken the daggering dance from the club to the bedroom, with disastrous consequences.

Jamaican doctors were prompted to issue a warning on the dangers of daggering when presented with a range of fractured penises caused by rough intercourse.

The number of cases tripled in the last year, the UK's Sun reports.

The rising popularity of the new dance - and subsequent public protests - have prompted the Jamaican government to ban songs and videos with blatantly sexual content.
Jamaica's Broadcasting Commission, which defines daggering as a "colloquial term used in dancehall culture as a reference to hardcore sex or what is popularly referred to as 'dry sex' or the activities of persons engaged in the public simulation of various sexual acts and positions", enforced the ban in February.

"There shall not be transmitted through radio or television or cable services, any recording, live song or music video which promotes the act of 'daggering', or which makes reference to, or is otherwise suggestive of 'daggeringâ'," the Jamaican Broadcasting Commission's official statement said.

Daggering is a newly accepted name for an activity that has been present in Jamaica's dancehalls for many years. It is roughly the equivalent of the Caribbean's "cabin stabbing", another crude style of music and dance.

"Daggering is a dance that makes you unleash the beast! If you ain't know what I mean think about every sex position and put it in a dance," commenter Driva said of the dance.

A series of YouTube videos depict daggering as a rough, and sometimes violent, act which can be demeaning to women. One video shows popular group RDX performing its song Daggering live, with one member simulating extremely rough dry sex on the floor with a woman.
The community is divided over the dance, with singers up in arms over the ban, saying it stifles their right to free speech, but others welcome the ban.

Police: Handgun handed off at airport, gets on plane

By Larry King
INQUIRER STAFF WRITER
A U.S. Airways employee was being questioned by authorities this morning after a bag containing an unloaded gun apparently circumvented security and made it onto a plane at Philadelphia International Airport, police said.
A passenger waiting to board Flight 1195, destined for Phoenix, noticed another passenger handing a carry-on bag directly to the airline employee, said Officer Christine O'Brien, a Philadelphia police spokeswoman.
The bag was not sent through normal secuity screening, O'Brien said, making the waiting passenger suspicious. The passenger alerted officials with the Transportation Security Administration.
A TSA employee boarded the plane, located the suspect bag in an overhead compartment, and found that it contained an unloaded handgun, O'Brien said.
The incident took place at about 7:40 a.m., she said.
The owner of the bag and the U.S. Airways worker were being questioned this morning, police said.
The flight, which was originally scheduled to depart at 7:10 a.m., was delayed almost four hours, finally taking off shortly after 11.
Instead of arriving in Phoenix at shortly after 9 a.m., it was scheduled to reach Phoenix after 1 p.m., according to USAir's website.
Spokespersons for U.S. Airways and the TSA declined to comment on specifics of the incident, saying the FBI had taken over the investigation.
"Safety and security is our first and foremost priority in everything we do," Morgan Durrant, senior manager of corporate communications for the airline, said in an e-mailed statement. "We are cooperating with investigators fully and take security considerations very seriously. Further comment right now is not appropriate out of respect to the ongoing investigation."

Stripper's kick to the face injures businessman, suit claims

By SUSAN SPENCER-WENDEL
Palm Beach Post Staff Writer
Tuesday, June 02, 2009
WEST PALM BEACH — A man has sued the Cheetah nightclub and a stripper, alleging he was badly injured when she struck him in the face with her leg or foot while he was seated at a bar.
Michael Ireland was at Cheetah on Sept. 28, 2008, when he was struck "suddenly and without warning" by Sakeena Shageer, according to the negligence suit filed last week by litigator Lake Lytal III against Shageer and Cheetah's parent company, Casablanca East LLC.
Shageer, 28, - also known by her stage name "Suki" - is a registered exotic dancer in Palm Beach County, records show. In her 2004 application for a permit, she described herself as 5-foot-1 and 118 pounds.
Lytal believes Shageer spun around and struck Ireland in the face with her shoe. Even if it was an accident, he said, Ireland, a local businessman, was seriously injured in the incident at the suburban West Palm Beach nightclub.
Ireland suffered broken bones around his eye and in his nose and now has permanent double vision, Lytal said. Ireland has had one surgery and needs another.
Lytal said he was forced to sue after Cheetah's insurance carrier refused to pay damages.
"We're hopeful the club's insurance company will still do the right thing," Lytal said.
Shageer did not return a call seeking comment. Joe Rodriguez, the registered agent of Casablanca East LLC, also did not return a call. Michael Ireland could not be reached for comment.
Strip club lawsuits that have made headlines have centered on the hazard of sky-high platform shoes strippers frequently wear.
Last year in New York, a man sued after a stripper giving him a lap dance swiveled and smacked him in the face with her shoe. A Broward man sued after a woman's stiletto flew off during a pole dance, shattering a mirror and cutting him.
Lytal said he has yet to depose the dancer and has no idea what kind of shoes she was wearing. "But we will certainly be inquiring," he said.
According to a Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office report filed after the incident, Shageer acknowledged being atop the bar at the time, Lytal said. But he's unsure whether she was dancing.
"Although I'm not sure what else she would be doing," Lytal said.

4th Stites brother is charged with sexual assault


BY Sarah Millard • Herald Times Reporter • June 2, 2009

MANITOWOC — Thomas M. Stites, 25, of Francis Creek, made his initial appearance Monday on a first-degree, sexual-assault-of-a-child charge before the Manitowoc County Circuit Court.
Stites is scheduled for a preliminary hearing at 9:30 a.m. June 9. He remains jailed in lieu of $10,000 bail.
A young girl told law enforcement she was 6 years old when Stites raped her in the spring of 2005, according to a criminal complaint filed Wednesday.
The girl told Manitowoc police detectives Thomas Stites and his brother, Carl J. Stites, 20, of Manitowoc, forced her to have sex with Thomas Stites in order to play video games. Carl Stites held her arms on the ground while Thomas Stites assaulted her, according to the complaint.
An investigation into Carl Stites' role in the assault is continuing, Manitowoc police Capt. Scott Luchterhand said.
Thomas Stites is the sixth Stites family member to be charged with sexual assault-related crimes.
His brother, Michael E. Stites, 38, of Manitowoc, pleaded guilty May 7 to repeatedly sexually assaulting two teenage girls in Manitowoc County. Michael Stites also was convicted in Brown County of three counts of sexually assaulting his children's then 14-year-old baby-sitter in September 1998.
Jason C. Stites, 27, of New Berlin, another brother, is charged with five felonies.
He is accused of videotaping a teenage couple having sex while he chaperoned the minors in Manitowoc County. Stites' attorney, Ryan Kautzer, filed a motion May 19 to dismiss the case. A motion hearing is schedule for 9:30 a.m. Friday.
Carl Stites has been convicted of two counts of child enticement. He had sexual contact with a then 15-year-old boy in August 2006. He also had sexual contact with an adolescent girl between 2004 and 2005.
Charlene P. Stites, 43, of Manitowoc, Michael Stites' wife, is charged with repeated sexual assault of a child.
She is scheduled to meet with lawyers in the district attorney's office for a June 30 settlement conference.
Adam M. Stites, 18, of Manitowoc, Charlene and Michael Stites' son, has been convicted of three misdemeanor fourth-degree sexual assault charges — two counts in Kewaunee County and one count in Manitowoc County. He also is serving a deferred judgment agreement on a felony sex-related charge that will be dismissed if he fulfills the terms of the agreement.

SEOUL, South Korea — North Korea is preparing to launch three or four medium-range missiles, along with an ICBM, amid moves by Kim Jong Il to anoint his third son as heir to the world's first communist dynasty, reports and experts said Tuesday.
South Korea's Yonhap news agency said the North is preparing to fire three to four medium-range missiles from Anbyon on its east coast.
'Many vehicles mounted with mobile launchers are being spotted' at Anbyon, Yonhap quoted an unnamed government official saying. 'It looks like at least three missiles will be launched.'
The North has also transported what is believed to be its most advanced intercontinental ballistic missile to a base near China in the west, officials confirmed."

The two Koreas have been at war since the 50's, until we fully understand this from their prospective, nothing will change.

"Newborn Abandoned in Motel Room Littered With Beer Cans
Monday, June 01, 2009

SPRINGFIELD, Mass. — A newborn is being cared for at a hospital after being found abandoned — umbilical cord still attached — in a West Springfield motel room littered with empty beer cans.
Police said the baby was discovered early Saturday by a couple returning to the room next door at the Welcome Inn.
Kimberly Dougherty told the Republican newspaper of Springfield that she heard a weak cry coming from the next room. The door was ajar and when she entered, she found the baby girl lying on her back in the middle of a double bed.
Dougherty said she and her husband wrapped the baby in towels until paramedics arrived and took the infant to Baystate Medical Center.
Dougherty guessed that the baby was only an hour or two old.
Investigators are trying to track down the mother."

Microsoft's New Search Engine Puts Porn in Motion
Tuesday, June 02, 2009 By Joseph Abrams


Microsoft
A screen shot of the text results for 'sex' in Microsoft's Bing search engine. We can't show you the image results.
Your kids may get a bang out of Bing — and that's not a good thing, Internet safety experts warned on Monday.
Bing, Microsoft's new search engine (http://www.bing.com/), went live in the U.S. this weekend, aiming to challenge and possibly unseat industry titan Google.
But bloggers and Internet safety experts quickly discovered that one of Bing's "features" is that it takes only a few clicks for anyone — of any age — to view explicit pornographic videos without even leaving the search engine.
In its bid to beat Google, Microsoft has unveiled a slate of convenient features for Bing, including an "autoplay" tool that lets users preview videos simply by hovering a mouse over them.
That asset may become a liability, because users can get a taste of porn videos on Bing instead of having to go to a smutty Web site — an innovation other search engines have yet to offer.
Technology blogger Loic Le Meur noticed the issue early Monday after testing video search on Bing.
What he found was a cornucopia of pornography that he said transformed the search engine into its very own pornographic Web site.
"You are now on a porn site without leaving Bing. Amazing," Le Meur wrote on his blog.

No wedding: the man was refused permission to marry a lower class girl

A 25-year-old Egyptian man cut off his own penis to spite his family after he was refused permission to marry a girl from a lower class family, police reported on Sunday.
After unsuccessfully petitioning his father for two years to marry the girl, the man heated up a knife and sliced off his reproductive organ, said a police official.
The young man came from a prominent family in the southern Egyptian province of Qena, one of Egypt's poorest and most conservative areas.
The man was rushed to hospital, but doctors were unable to reattach the severed organ, the official added.
The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak with the press, added that the man was still recovering in the hospital.

Hialeah teacher charged with having sex with student, 15
A religious school teacher was charged over the weekend with sexual battery on a teenager -- hours after the two returned home from a trip to Disney World.


Maria Guzman Hernandez


Read the arrest report
BY CAROL MARBIN MILLER AND JENNIFER LEBOVICH
cmarbin@MiamiHerald.com
When police wanted to question a teacher accused of having an affair with an eighth-grader at a private religious school, she was out of town -- vacationing at Disney World with the student.
Upon her return Saturday, 32-year-old Maria Guzman Hernandez, a sixth-grade teacher at Hialeah's Our Lady of Charity, admitted to Hialeah police she'd had sex with the 15-year-old.
Hernandez was charged with sexual battery on a child over whom she had custodial authority, a charge similar to statutory rape.
The boy's mother, who acknowledged to both police and Department of Children & Families investigators that she approved of the relationship, is under investigation by both agencies for permitting the teen to have a months-long affair with the teacher, and for consenting to the theme park trip.
Hernandez and the teen had a ''sexual relationship'' for several months, and the boy told police they had been ''sexually active'' since March, according to a police report. The two met at the school, 1900 W. 44th Pl.
Detective Carl Zogby, a Hialeah police spokesman, said many of the couple's romantic encounters occurred at the apartment the boy shared with his mother.
''She apparently didn't find anything wrong with it, thought that the teacher was a nice enough person and a good influence on her son,'' Zogby said.
The teacher, who had been in good standing at the school, was asked to resign.
After being read her rights, Hernandez, who had been a teacher at the school for four years, admitted to having sex with the teen, Hialeah Detective Felix Mendigutia wrote in the police report.
She was released on $10,000 bail Sunday afternoon, according to Janelle Hall, a jail spokeswoman.
Hernandez, who is estranged from her husband, told DCF investigators ''she was going through a lot in her life,'' said Jacqui Colyer, chief of the Miami DCF office. Hernandez's two children attend the Hialeah school.
Police have not charged the boy's mother, though they are still investigating her actions and deciding whether to file charges, Zogby said. The Miami Herald is not naming her in order to protect her son's identity.
A separate DCF investigation into whether the mom failed to protect her son is ongoing, Colyer said.
The mom told authorities she had consented to the affair.
''She didn't see anything wrong with it, and that's the challenge,'' Colyer said.
DCF has not removed the boy from his mother's custody, but the agency is planning to ask a child welfare judge to order the mom to accept services from the state. DCF has offered counseling to the boy and the rest of his family, Colyer said.
The mother migrated to the United States from Cuba.
In South Florida, the social service agency frequently provides outreach and education to new migrants whose parenting philosophies may not be acceptable, Colyer said.
''Parents can not allow their children to have [sexual] relationships with adults. That's just not acceptable in the United States,'' Colyer said. ``That will not be acceptable under any circumstances.''
Rumors began circulating at the school around May 20. For two days, principal Xenia Torres struggled with whether to report the rumored affair to DCF's abuse hot line, but a school attorney insisted they had no choice under a state law that mandates the reporting of all suspected child abuse or neglect, Colyer said.
DCF's abuse hot line received a report about the couple on Friday, and police were notified/, said a police spokesman.
Torres, the school's principal, declined to discuss Hernandez's arrest with a reporter Tuesday. ''It's currently under investigation, and I'm not at liberty to say anything,'' she said.
Though the school identifies itself as a Catholic private school in state Department of Education records, Our Lady of Charity is not affiliated with the Roman Catholic Church, said Mary Ross Agosta, a spokeswoman for the Archdiocese of Miami.
Cheryl Etters, a spokeswoman for the Department of Education, said the state has not received any complaints about the school, which accepts students from pre-kindergarten through grade nine.

Brooke Shields told Health magazine she would have lost her virginity a lot sooner than she did — at age 22 — if it weren't for her body issues.
"I had the public and all this pressure, and I wish I had just gotten it over with in the beginning when it was sort of OK," Shields said in a question and answer session with the magazine. "I think I would have been much more in touch with myself."
She says her biggest health regret was not learing to love the way she looked earlier.
"I think I wouldn’t have had issues with weight — I carried this protective 20 pounds [in college]," she said. "It was all connected. And to me, that’s a health regret."

Woman Charged With Hurling Baby in Car Seat at Wal-Mart Employee
Monday, May 25, 2009

MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Police have charged a woman who they say used a child car seat with a 2-month-old infant inside to hit a Wal-Mart employee.
Detective Monique Martin said in a news release Monday that Camilla Fields of Memphis, Tenn., was charged with felony child abuse and neglect and assault. Police did not know if she had an attorney.
A police report from the Wednesday incident says Fields was carrying the car seat when she was confronted by a security guard about shoplifting.
Police say Fields threw the seat and ran away, causing the baby to land face down on the pavement. A paramedic treated the baby until the child regained consciousness.
The child's mother, Stacey Cleaves, was also charged with false reporting and child neglect

and I thought "Baby Hurling" was when they were puking up green pea baby food!!

I thought you had to be an ex-con (one in waiting) to be drafted by the "Plowboys"!!


IRVING, Texas — The Dallas Cowboys used advice from an ex-con who falsified his educational credentials to make major structural reinforcements to a collapsed practice facility.
The Dallas Morning News reports that the consultant, Jeffrey Lawrence Galland, was engineering director of a Las Vegas company called JCI even though he had no engineering license.
Galland, 42, said JCI president Scott Jacobs, who is a licensed engineer, supervised his Cowboys work.
The Cowboys declined to comment.

Galland was arrested in 1994 after breaking into a home and pointing a gun at a woman in Great Falls, Mont., police there said. Charges included burglary and assault.
The tentlike practice facility came crashing down in fierce winds May 2, permanently paralyzing scouting assistant Rich Behm.

Mary Kay Letourneau hosts 'Hot for Teacher' night
May 21, 2009

SEATTLE—Mary Kay Letourneau and her former sixth-grade student -- the father of her two youngest children -- are hosting a "Hot for Teacher" night at a Seattle nightclub. Letourneau, now 47, served 7 1/2 years in prison after she was convicted of raping Vili Fualaau, now 26. They were married four years ago this week.

The bar's owner said Letourneau has served her sentence, she's married her former student, and it's OK for them to have some fun on a Saturday night.
Mike Morris, owner of Fuel Sports Eats & Beats, said this is the third time Letourneau and Fualaau have hosted a "Hot for Teacher" night at the nightclub. The event begins at 9:30 p.m. Saturday.
The couple first met when Fualaau was in the second grade. Their relationship became sexual when he was 12 and she was a 34-year-old married mother of four.

Do you supposed they charged the kids for the show

Nice hickey on her neck. Nothing like marking your property.
Cops: Kids on board while Ohio couple got busy in car's front seat

MAY 18--Meet Danica Wallace and Jeremy Welch. The Ohio couple was arrested Friday after cops spotted them having sex in a car while Welch's two small children were in the vehicle's back seat. According to a Springfield Police Department report, Wallace, age 24, was driving a Ford Taurus when she and Welch, 29, "pulled off the roadway to have sex."

When police approached the vehicle, they discovered Wallace, naked from the waist down, astride a similarly pantsless Welch, who was seated in the front passenger seat.

Welch, who was "extremely intoxicated," offered cops a simple explanation for the pair's conduct: "We got horny and just wanted to fuck!!"

Wallace, who failed a series of field sobriety tests, claimed to have only consumed a 22-ounce bottle of Budweiser. "I'm not completely drunk," she assured police.

Wallace was charged with drunk driving, child endangerment, and possession of drug paraphernalia. Welch was charged with public indecency. Wallace's children, ages four and 22 months, were turned over to a friend of hers. Wallace and Welch are pictured in mug shots taken at the Clark County Jail.

Study Finds Why Some Men Are 'Chubby Chasers'
Thursday, April 16, 2009

Describe the perfect woman. Is she blonde, or brunette? Petite, or tall? Slender — or fat?
For a certain subset of the male population — referred to in the scientific community as "fat admirers" (FAs)— overweight women are the ideal.
And a recent study, published in The Journal of Sex Research, finds that not only do FAs prefer overweight women, but that they also find a wider range of body sizes attractive than other men do.
• Click here to visit FOXNews.com's Natural Science Center.
The study asked two groups of men — those who were scouted at FA events, and those who did not identify with the subculture — to rate black-and-white photographs of 10 female body types.
Both groups were asked which figure they desired the most, as well as the largest and thinnest figures that they found attractive.

The FAs were most attracted to the photo of a woman with a body mass index of 29.24.
BMIs are computed by dividing weight in kilograms by height in meters squared; according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, a body mass index of 25 to 29.9 qualifies a person as overweight, while those who are obese have a BMI of 30 or higher.
For example, a 5’6” woman at 155 pounds is overweight, and is obese at 190 pounds. (To find your BMI using metric measurements, use the CDC’s calculator.
Furthermore, the study found that FAs considered a wider range of figures to be appealing, including those of two emaciated women (with BMIs lower than 15).


Viren Swami, a psychology professor at England's University of Westminster and a lead researcher on the study, says that these findings suggest a rejection of the "sociocultural norms of attractiveness."
"Most [FAs] understand that their ideals of beauty are not 'mainstream,' but I don't think it's really perceived as something rebellious," Swami told LiveScience. "'Natural' is a word that often crept up in my conversations with FAs, i.e., they viewed their preferences as normal; it was just that mainstream society didn't 'accept' those ideals."
The control group, meanwhile, supported those conventional ideals, finding the figure with a BMI of 18.45 — which, technically, qualifies as underweight — the most attractive. They also rated the overweight and obese images more negatively overall than the FAs did.
FAs might be fighting stereotypes, but do they concern themselves with the weight-related health issues that come along with that resistance?
"For some, [health] didn't matter," Swami says. "Others are more strongly involved with fat acceptance movements, and are trying to redefine what is meant by 'healthy.'"
Obesity as healthy? Fat chance.

Google Gets Goats to Mow Lawn at Company Headquarters
Monday, May 04, 2009 By Frank Carnevale



Last week, Google brought in a herd of goats to mow the grass on its Mountain View, Calif. headquarters rather than using lawnmowers.
The company said that it wanted to take a more "low-carbon" approach with the goats reducing the company's contribution to air and noise pollution.
The cost of hiring the 200-some goats is about the same price as mowing, but the goats were "a lot cuter to watch."
PETA responded to a TechCrunch call about the goats, saying that though they have no problem with letting goats do what they do, they do have concerns about how they were transported and whether they have enough shelter and water.
Google said that though the goats were not technically employees, "each goat is entitled to a free organic lunch."

Woman Accused of Using Liquid Soap Chaser Before Trying to Bite Flight Crew

BANGOR, Maine — A British woman allegedly had an in-flight meal of prescription drugs, wine and liquid soap — before trying to bite the crew of a London-bound jetliner.
Galina Rusanova punched and kicked flight attendants on the Chicago-based United Airlines flight after downing two or three bottles of wine, prescription drugs and liquid soap from the jet's lavatory, prosecutors said.
As the scuffle escalated, Rusanova snapped "like a dog" while trying to bite an attendant, prosecutors said.
The FBI said the Russian-born London resident had gone to Los Angeles to visit a man she met over the Internet and was returning Wednesday when her flight was diverted to Bangor.
Rusanova appeared in U.S. District Court for a detention hearing there Monday, where she's charged with assault and interference with a flight crew.
No one answered the phone at defense lawyer Matthew Erickson's office.

Okay, so now flight crews are going to be tested for "liquid lavatory soap" abuse!!

Saudi Arabia clamps down on unlicensed female gyms

By Asma Alsharif Asma Alsharif – Thu Apr 30, 2:04 pm ET
JEDDAH (Reuters) – "Let her get fat!" is the slogan women in Saudi Arabia are using to challenge a clampdown on female-only gyms.
Unhappy at the growing number of unlicensed female gyms, the Ministry of Municipal and Rural Affairs recently closed two in the Red Sea city of Jeddah and one in the city of Dammam on the Gulf Arab coast for not having a license.
In response, newspaper columnists and bloggers are promoting the sarcastic line "let her get fat!" as a way of fighting back, though it is likely to be a losing battle.
In Saudi Arabia, where clerics have extensive influence in society, gyms are sexually segregated because of conservative tribal and religious values.
Female participation in sports has long been a controversial issue in the kingdom, with physical education banned from public girls' schools and clerics issuing religious prohibitions on female participation in sports.
While male gyms get licenses from a government sports body, female gyms have no official authority overseeing them.
"The idea of female fitness is non-existent within our government," said Fouziah Alouni, a prominent women's rights campaigner.
"Depriving women of this is yet another way of marginalizing them. Give us a justifiable reason or leave woman alone. This is unbearable."
The result has been high rates of diabetes and even bone frailty among women, which the Ministry of Health says it wants to combat.
"Football and basketball are sports that require a lot of movement and jumping," Sheikh Abdullah al-Maneea, member of the official Supreme Council of Religious Scholars, said in a religious opinion published in Okaz newspaper Thursday.
He said such excessive movement may harm girls who are still virgins, possibly causing them to lose their virginity.
"There is a school of thought that unfortunately exists and which has a distorted interpretation of Islam," said Lina Al-Maeena, who organises basketball training in Jeddah.
Women's gyms can only exist inside hospitals as "health centres" supervised by the Ministry of Health but prices are so high, at least 1,000 riyals ($266) a month, that only the affluent can afford membership.
Cheaper versions have sprung up under name "beauty salon" or "studio" but now their future is in doubt.
Madawi Al-Hassoun of the Jeddah Chamber of Commerce said the chamber has been trying for three years to find a government body prepared to take on board licensing female gyms.
"Some people don't like women to go out of their homes. This is a common struggle for female businesses in Saudi," she said.

Hunter Arrested In Blind Pig Slaying
POSTED: 2:42 pm HST April 26, 2009

HONOLULU -- A hunter has been arrested for allegedly stabbing to death a blind pet pig at an animal shelter in Hawaii Kai.
The slaughtered 6-month-old pig was named Keller, after Helen Keller, and belonged to Hawaii Animal Sanctuary, which cares for abused, abandoned, disabled and sick animals.
Witnesses say a group of hunters drove up on a private road, set loose a pack of hunting dogs that mauled the pig before one of the hunters stabbed it to death.
The sanctuary is operated by Gary Weller and Gina Lay.
Lay said Keller has only known human kindness so he wasn't prepared for what happened to him.

"oops, I thought it was Rosie O'Donnel"

How can you be called a hunter if you stab a blind pig??? He should be called an "Opportunist" (the pollitically correct term)!!

By Beacon Journal staff
POSTED: 12:30 p.m. EDT, Apr 20, 2009
A 52-year-old woman who took a job as an exotic dancer to help make ends meet was attacked on her first day by a jealous co-worker armed with a stiletto shoe, police said.

Young girls walk into four people having sex in restaurant bathroom
South Bend

Posted: 7:15 PM Apr 16, 2009

Last Updated: 11:43 PM Apr 16, 2009



The parents of two young girls say their daughters walked into a downtown restaurant bathroom and saw four people having sex. Their parents are so disturbed, they want all parents to be aware.
"They saw two women servicing two men in the restroom," Robert Schumann says. "Eleven years old is still not old enough to learn about such things as that."
"My 11-year-old asked me, 'How come two women were coming out of the bathroom and why were two guys in there?’ Melissa Schumann, the girls’ mother, says. ‘And they were making funny noises.'"
The Schumann’s contacted the managers at Taco Bell and suggested they lock the doors.
"She turned around and told me they used to lock the bathrooms because of this very issue but she was told to keep them unlocked because of all the complaints they got about the doors being locked," Robert says.
Taco Bell Spokesperson, Rob Poetsch, sent a statement that reads:
“The safety of our customers is our number one priority, and although this is an isolated incident, we’re having self-locking doors installed as a precautionary measure.”
Newscenter 16 went into the Taco Bell Thursday and found a note on the bathroom doors asking customers to get a key from the counter and lock the door behind them. But we were able to walk into the women’s room without a key. Once we spoke to a manager, she locked the doors right in front of us.
"It's scary because now I don't want to send my children to the bathroom by themselves and my 11-year-old doesn't want to be treated like a child,” Melissa explains. “She wants to feel grown up. I can't do that now."
"I was fuming. I was angry. I was upset. I was concerned," Robert says. He is pleased now the restaurant is taking action and installing locks to prevent people from wandering in.
South Bend police say public sex happens very often and in many places. They say they’ve gotten calls from this Taco Bell before, as well as other fast food restaurants, bars, cars, parks and almost any public place. But police say by the time they arrive, those having sex are either gone or not committing the act anymore.
Still, the Schumanns never thought having lunch at noon on a Saturday would turn so disturbing.
"We see police there all the time...eating there. And I figure, all right, police have made themselves known there so it should be relatively safe,” Melissa explains. “Nothing can really happen here. Oh, I was so wrong. I was so wrong."

McDonald's golden arches topple in Arizona high winds, crush Naperville couple

April 17, 2009
BY STEFANO ESPOSITO AND DAVE NEWBART Staff Reporters
A giant set of golden arches outside a McDonald’s in eastern Arizona toppled in high winds Wednesday, crushing a Naperville couple’s Chevy Trailblazer as they sat inside the parked vehicle.
Retirees Russell and Carolyn Janke suffered multiple injuries. They had stopped at the McDonald’s on the Navajo Nation reservation in Window Rock as they were making their way back to suburban Chicago from their winter home near Tucson.
Navajo acting Police Chief Steven Nelson said winds hit 60 mph Wednesday, causing the sign to be blown down from atop a pole across the street from the restaurant.
“It was a freak accident,’’ Nelson said.
Carolyn Janke, 68, was trapped inside the SUV and had to be cut out of the vehicle by rescue crews, Nelson said.
Both were taken to the Fort Defiance Indian Health Service. Carolyn Janke was later transported to St. Joseph’s Hospital and Medical Center in Phoenix — about six hours from Window Rock — where she remained in intensive care Thursday, her daughter-in-law, Ann Janke, told the Chicago Sun-Times.
Carolyn Janke, who was knocked unconscious, has a fractured spinalcolumn and a fractured sternum, her daughter-in-law said. Russell Janke, 70, a retired engineer, was hit in the head and “has over 70 stitches,” she said.
Ann Janke said she’s desperately trying to get more information about the accident.
“How could that sign not be properly secured? That’s what I want to know,” she said. “I’m mad. You don’t think you park under a sign . . . and giant golden arches are going to come smashing down on you.”
Roy Talker, the owner of the Window Rock franchise, issued a statement Thursday, saying, “We are genuinely concerned about the recovery of those involved. We are fully cooperating with the authorities on their investigation.”
Talker also said, “Without having all the facts, it would be inappropriate to speculate on what may have happened.”
Nelson said the incident was still under investigation but said,“We have not had any reports of any problems with the sign.’’
But Richardson Laughing, who works nearby, said he has been worried about the sign toppling for a while.
“I’ve been working here two years and I’ve seen it blow back and forth in the wind,’’ Laughing told the Navajo Times newspaper. “I’ve been saying to my wife that it’s going to blow over sometime.’’
