Boyfriend Bails on Wedding, Woman Calls 911

  A Clarksville, TN woman has been arrested for a second time in as many weeks for making non-emergency phone calls to 911. This week's arrest stems from repeated 911 calls stating that her boyfriend was no longer willing to marry her.

In addition, officers report that Hee Orama, 34, was arrested last week after calling 911 numerous times to report that she could not find her car.

Orama claimed that the man had lied to her about wanting to get married. Officers went to her house 4 separate times, warning her about her abuse of 911, then issuing a citation, and finally arresting her.

Missing Infant Found Alive, Hidden Under Bed

  Police in the small Florida town of Chipley have found an infant that has been missing for 5 days. The child's mother, babysitter, and babysitter's husband are all expected to be charged in the dissapearance.

On Saturday, Chrystina Lynn Mercer and her husband reported to police that their 7-month old infant was missing. Yesterday, the child was found hidden in a box under the babysitter's bed. It appeared that the child had been cared for.

Police have said that they will release details of the investigation soon. They also said that the child's father apparently was not involved in the incident.

911 Caller Doesn´t Know Address, Reports Pot Stolen

  A central Florida man tried to get help from police after an armed robbery, but he could not tell the 911 operator what his address was. Oh, and he also told police that in addition to cash, the robbers stole his pot.

Von Powell called 911 nearly an hour after two men burst into his home and robbed him at gunpoint. He told the dispatcher that he was unsure of his address, and that he was sitting on the couch, smoking pot and having a beer.

Officers found Powell after driving around his neighborhood. Even though he told police about the missing drugs and his drug use, he was not charged with possesion due to lack of physical evidence.

Brad Pitt Looking For New Motorcycle After Trashing His Favorite Bike

  Brad Pitt, who currently is in Toyko to promote his new movie, says he is hunting for a new bike. When he tried to escape photographers, he had a little accident.

In Tokyo he wants to look for a substitute. "I will definitely be looking at motorcycles. You've got some of the best builders right here."

Additionaly, Pitt talks about his new movie, "Inglourious Basterds", which starts in Japanese cinemas on Wednesday. He says he feels lucky to have been chosen for the leading part.

Sony Bringing Board Game "Risk" to the Big Screen

  Sony Pictures is set to bring yet another board game to the movie screen, announcing recently that Hasbro's classic "Risk" is being adapted into a movie. The game was developed in France in 1957 and was the first to offer nonlinear play.

The film is in development, with executives from Hasbro and Will Smith's Overbrook Entertainment on board. Separate from Transformers, GI Joe and now Risk, Hasbro has four other films in development based on their merchandise.

   Thinking About College


     What am I gonna do with my life?!

As a junior in high school, I have been thinking about colleges, universities, and majors for quite a while.

My first struggle is that I have no idea what career I might be interested in...I think that is a really major decision to ask a teenager to make, when there are adults in the world who don’t even know what it is they really want to do! Another struggle is that things I have been told I am “good at” are not necessarily things I would want to spend the rest of my life doing.

For example, I am a youth attorney for a local youth court. They tell me I do a good job, and even the real judges who oversee our cases have complimented me. However, I personally do not have any interest in becoming a lawyer as a profession. So that’s out…

This is a big contributing factor to why so many college students change their majors! You start out thinking you want to do one thing, then when you take a couple classes in that subject, you realize there’s no way you could spend the rest of your life doing it! Or conversely, maybe you take a class as an elective and really love it and decide to go that route. Either way, it’s a tough expectation to put on a kid, to say the least.

Then the bigger picture is which school?? Schools have reputations for being “the best law school”, “the best business school”, “the best liberal arts program”, or whatever it is. But there are LOTS of schools out there, so I plan to apply to many; if I could only define that pesky major I’d be set!

I am also considering applying to US universities overseas. The advantage is since it is considered a US-school, you can still apply for scholarships and grants to help fund your education. But the plus is that you would be living in another country and experiencing that culture. How fun!

This is all preliminary information; as I go through the process I will share more with you. I am definitely struggling to identify what it is I am interested in doing as a profession, but I am trusting that everything will eventually fall into place!

Wish me luck…

A New Initiative!

This year, when most of you will be returning to school, and many of you will now be seniors, you will be starting your English assignments. In some schools, it is now compulsory to study English at higher/A-level (UK) or SAT/ACT (USA). This poses a problem. What books should you study? Or, more accurately, what books can you study?

In some cases, teachers will have prepared help sheets, containing information on novels they consider of a high enough standard to study. Many well known authors are bound to appear time and again on these lists; from Austen through to Zephaniah. Better still, there are a whole host of websites dedicated to helping young students choose their reading material. This is understandable. The aim of these exercises is to help you achieve the best possible grade in English.

However, try not to be restricted. Maintain a balance between studying and taking initiative. By this I mean choose a novel you want to study! Don’t be heckled or coerced into a rut. Just because everyone in your class is reading the same book does not guarantee success. Ask your teacher which book they think is suitable for your ability, one which will challenge you, rather than going along with the crowd. On the contrary, make sure the book you choose is not too difficult. Read a few chapters, and if you do not understand, then give it back.

This said I would like to recommend some novels which I found challenging, but still enjoyable!

Cannery Row, by John Steinbeck (Winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature)

For those of you who are familiar with Steinbeck’s work, you will soon realize that this is by no means convoluted. He uses simple language to great effect, to portray the lives of small-town Americans in the 30s. Full of wit and comic characters, there is so much charm and appeal in this book that it should be read, even if it is not studied at length.

The Beast in Man, by Emile Zola

This novel is also very simple to read. It is a study of human character, focusing on man’s capability to perform acts of atrocity. Surprisingly, the antagonist is also the main character. This novel promises to be as macabre as its title!

Dead Babies, by Martin Amis

Do not be put off by the title. This novel is a very dark comedy, with complex characters. Martin Amis’ style of writing has a virtuoso flow, and shows his ability to wield the English language. Be sure to have a dictionary ready!

North Korea Claims to Have Enriched Enough Plutonium for Another 1-2 Nuclear Bombs

  Six months after it was widely condemned for conducting a nuclear test North Korea has announced via the official news agency that it is now in possession of more weapons-grade plutonium after reprocessing some 8,000 nuclear fuel rods.

This new material could allow the communist state to add 1-2 weapons to its arsenal. The country's leadership has on several occasions indicated that if they are provoked they will use nuclear weapons.

The Stalinist state has, however, indicated a willingness to talk directly to Washington.

Moscow Declares War on Winter

  Russia: The Mayor of Moscow, Yuri Luzhkov, has announced plans to use the air force to seed clouds over winter at a cost of 180 million rubles, in theory reducing the amount of snow that falls on the capital by 20%, thereby saving 300 million rubles.

While Luzhkov claims that this will be good for crops outside the city but others aren't so convinced with provincial officials questioning the environmental effects and asking where they will get the funds to shift the extra snow.

"He is an old man and does not understand you cannot change a millennia-old climate. his plan will kill Moscow's trees. They need snow to survive the winter. Luzhkov is simply dangerous to the people of Moscow," said opposition leader Boris Nemtsov.

Most Potential U.S. Military Recruits Couldn´t Serve: They´re Too Fat, Stupid, Sickly ...

  More than 75 percent of U.S. 17- to 24-year-olds wouldn't strike much fear into enemy forces -- they're so obese, or so dumb, or have so many kids, or so many diseases, or have used so many illegal drugs, that the armed forces wouldn't take them.

The two main problems, though, are that so many potential soldiers are fat and weak, said Curt Gilroy of the Pentagon. "Kids are just not able to do push-ups ... and they can't do pull-ups. And they can't run," he said.

In 1987, just six percent of Americans age 18-34 were obese. That number has expanded to nearly a quarter of that demographic today. Though the military just had a good year recruiting, the future of America's all-volunteer army is in question.

Soldier Shot in Combat, Pulls Bullet Out and Keeps Fighting

  Afghanistan: 22-year-old Lewis Coulbert of the 1st Battalion Grenadier Guards has come through his first engagement with the Taliban wounded but with resolve unshaken after he was hit by a bullet during the midnight gun battle.

Coulbert said it felt like his arm was "jabbed really hard" but it wasn't until he looked down that he realised he had taken an AK47 round off a ricochet. The young soldier pulled the bullet out, took care of the wound, and kept fighting.

"I was nervous about my first contacts, because I didn't know how I would react. But I was surprised by how calm everyone stayed. You don't panic because everyone has a job to do," said Coulbert.

Doctor Thinks He May Have Found a Cure for Snoring

  400 people have been put on a medical trial in the ear, nose, and throat ward in Southport hospital in Liverpool. The drugs administered through injection have so far shown encouraging results, according to Mr Al-Jassim and his specialist.

Snoring has been the one of the main causes of sleep deprivation, which can be a devastating predicament for both partners, along with many health concerns along with being a trigger for tension between couples.

Mr Al-Jassim used a sclerosing agent, which has been widely used in the UK for varicose veins. The substance appears to control snoring by having an effect on the supple tissue at the rear of the mouth, stopping it from vibrating.

Overweight Man Refuses to be X-Rayed at the Zoo, Dies of Unknown Causes

  Germany: 51-year-old Thomas Lessmann has died of yet to be determined causes almost a fortnight after he refused to be x-rayed at the local zoo. Lessmann had sought medical attention because he was losing consciousness a lot and feeling unwell.

The Eppendorf clinic he attended referred him to the zoo for an x-ray. Mr Lessmann is 230 kilograms and most human x-rays will no support someone heavier than approximately 200.

Lessmann was offended by the suggestion and declined to have the test done. "It sounded like they were trying to wind us up," said Petra, his widow.

  An injection under the experimental phase has seen positives results in curing pre-cancerous tumors in the vulvar. “Intraepithelial neoplasia “is unrelated to the Cervarix or Gardasil. This new vaccine is will help women already infected.

Methods such as chemotherapy, laser and surgery are usually ineffective in 75% of tumors which are connection to HPV-16 disease. Tests with 20 women found that symptoms had vanished in 9 women along with a 10 year old tumor.

In an African Desert, an Ocean is Born

  Right now, it's just a 35-mile long crack in the ground, running through the desert of Ethiopia. But the rift, first detected in 2005 and now 20 feet wide in places, is almost certainly the beginnings of a new ocean, researchers have confirmed.

When it first opened, some geologists speculated that the rift would form a new ocean, but that view was controversial. New studies, however, show that what's happening in the rift is nearly identical to geological processes on ocean floors.

Studies also revealed that volcanic activity along the edges of tectonic plates can cause large sections to break up, rather than a slower process that had been previously theorized. The 35-mile rift was torn open in just a few days.

Relative of Amelia Earhart Says She Was Actually Captured by The Japanese

  Wally Earhart, Amelia Earhart's fourth cousin, says a "massive coverup" continues by the U.S. government in her 1937 disappearance, either due to Navy ineptitude during her rescue, or that Japan recon work asked of her by Roosevelt would be exposed.

He said that renewed interest due to the film "Amelia" sets the stage for the public to "know the truth about Amelia's last days." He says that Amelia and navigator Fred Noonan died on Saipan after being captured by Japanese forces.

He says Noonan was beheaded and Earhart succumbed to dysentery, and that the plane, also taken to Saipan, was cut up. “There are many people, including Japanese military and Saipan natives, who witnessed all these events on the island,” he said.

Kissing Meant to Spread Germs, Boost Pre-Pregnancy Immunity

  Researchers believe that the development of kissing was intended to build up one's immunity by spreading Cytomegalovirus, found in saliva, to women before they get pregnant. It's usually harmless, but can cause birth defects and miscarriages.

Researcher Dr. Colin Hendrie says that the best protection from the virus involved about six months of kissing. He says that previous ideas of kissing being about evolutionary quality control are a bit off the mark, requiring unnecessary intimacy.

"Information concerning body tone, smell, reproductive condition, disease state and, of course, personal physical and oral hygiene can all be gained solely from close physical proximity," he said.

Activision Sued for Turning No Doubt into Karaoke Act

  Alternative rock band No Doubt have filed a lawsuit against Activision, claiming their image was used inappropriately in the popular game "Band Hero". Both parties had an agreement to use the band members in the game.

However, the band has taken offense at the use of avatars of their "characters" being able to sing other bands' songs. The suit specifies one in particular where "the Gwen Stefani avatar in a male voice boasting about having sex with prostitutes."

The band is seeking damages, as well as a cease and desist order for distributing the game as is. It would also like current copies recalled. Activision has responded, saying the suit was "without merit".

Scientists Able to Extract Image From Brainwaves

  Scientists at the University of California led by Professor Jack Gallant have successfully used a functional magnetic resonance imaging scanner to extract what a person is seeing from their brainwaves.

The researchers fed videos and the scans of volunteers into a computer for correlations to be drawn. The volunteers were then shown a different video and the software was able to recreate the basic shape but not all details from brainwaves.

"At the moment when you see something and want to describe it you have to use words or draw it and it doesn't work very well. This technology might allow you to recover an eyewitness's memory of a crime," said Professor Gallant.

First Hotel in Space to Open in 2012?

  Despite questions from critics over their funding and time frame Galactic Suite Space Resort insists that they are on track to open a Hotel orbiting earth at an altitude of 450km and a speed of 30,000km/h by 2012.

For 3 million euros a guest will be able to stay in the space hotel for three nights. Eight weeks of training is required and is included in the price, as is the trip there and back in a Russian rocket.

The hotel will be able to house four guests and the two rocket pilots initially. While guests would not have staff looking after them they would get to see 15 sunrises and would go right around the earth every 1 hour, 20 minutes.

Stray Dogs to Get Put Up in Hotels

  Tapei's stray dogs are about to get lucky with two proprieters opening dog hotels that include luxury facilities. The hotels are equipped with salons, classes, pools and playrooms. Tapei has had a street dog problem for decades.

The owner of the Pet's Dream Park hotel, Kevin Lin, said: "It's just like day care for children. A major reason I opened this business is to ease the stray dog problem." The hotel costs $14 a day.

This is affordable to most Tapei families, who usually would have dumped their dogs on the street for lack of time and space to accommodate them.
