The strangest part to me is... why'd they do that to her right hand? I understand brightening the colors and smoothing the skin, but doesn't her rack speak for itself? She's still f*cking hot. Love you, Katy!
FYI: We're just kidding about her getting arrested again... It's just a lil' fender bender. I have no idea why they let them drive freely around the city. What were you thinking, Italy?! The Jersey Shore crew arrived in Italy almost three weeks ago and the guys have managed to rack up more than 300 Euro worth of fines for various traffic violations.
Jersey shore star Snooki put Italian two police officers in hospital tonight after she crashed into their patrol car.
The 23-year-old was driving the Fiat Multipla with co-star Deena in the front seat and production crew in the back when the accident happened in the evening rush hour.
Reports that she had been 'taken into custody' were denied by police but they did say she had been questioned at length about the crash and may face charges at a later date.

A wonderful French experiment with the infamous boob cam. The reaction from these guys is expected. Wonderful way to see the world from a set of BOOBS.
While shooting pictures for our new book on lions at Tswalu Kalahari Game Reserve, we found some lions patrolling the fence line. We placed our GoPro action camera in their path hoping to catch a glimpse of them as they came past. Little did we know that one lioness would take a liking to the camera and cart it off into the bush!

Good police work. They could have just shot the guy, but they used discretion - paint balls. Very funny though. Paint balls hurt as F***, but he obviously was HIGH on something and wasn't feeling the pain much.
Dude swims like a dolphin! Unfortunately, he was Disqualified. You actually have to come up within fifteen meters. Regardless, his performance was still impressive.
Former President George W. Bush definitely kept his cool alongside his wife Laura Bush during the baseball game. He was even trying to catch it barehanded up until the last minute. Remember him dodging those shoes?
I think those dimwits need a bigger boat. This is what happens when women go fishing. Someone revoke their license and take the camera away and throw that "OMG" kid overboard.
Literally, this Russian tourist got raped by a monkey in Bali, Indonesia. In the future we won't spank the monkey. The monkey will spank us! I wonder if it was the guy's white pants or the sexual sensation coming from his hair gel?
The music definitely puts the flight into pure awesomeness. This video is beyond awesomeness. Just breathtaking really. I've always loved watching birds soar through the skies, cutting air like no human pilot can. It was amazing to see the falcon dive with fully folded wings. If there is one reason to believe in reincarnation it is this. The song is called "Clubbed To Death" by Rob Dougan.
The CDC recently posted 'Preparedness 101: Zombie Apocalypse'...though it may sound silly, in all seriousness it shouldn't be taken lightly. It's been quite a busy severe weather season. Check out the website, but here is a shortlist of some of the essentials you'll need:
Water (1 gallon per person per day)
Food (stock up on non-perishable items that you eat regularly)
Medications (this includes prescription and non-prescription meds)
Sanitation and Hygiene (household bleach, soap, towels, etc.)
Clothing and Bedding (a change of clothes for each family member and blankets)
Important documents (copies of your driver’s license, passport, and birth certificate to name a few)
First Aid supplies (although you’re a goner if a zombie bites you, you can use these supplies to treat basic cuts and lacerations that you might get during a tornado or hurricane)
Chasers Intercept Joplin Tornado
We were chasing this storm and were right behind it when it dropped the tornado in Joplin. The tragedy is horrible. We stopped the camera after we picked up our first injured victim. We picked up many more and worked as an ambulance for many hours, shuttling people to the hospital. We will never forget the people we met, or the things we saw. We pray they all made it . So sad. This is exactly WHY we chase. We are praying for you Joplin.
Scary Video From Inside The Tornado
The video i took while at Fastrip on east 20th street. We huddled in the back of the store until the glass got sucked out, then ran into the walk in storage fridge. Sorry for the lack of visuals but the audio is pretty telling of how intense the storm was.

This is a clip from a TV show called "Without Prejudice?" which was on GSN a couple of years ago. Wow, this complete Polynesian idiot is one confused brown man.
In other news, Polynesians have been offered memberships into the KKK as "very tan" white members...
HERE'S AN UPDATE E-MAIL FROM MICHAEL (contestant on the show): Awesome man. This is so random but I am so glad you put this up. Folks are talking. The show won awards in the UK and so they made a US version. This was the pilot episode and the most popular. it was such a success that they got a full season from it. it is an hour long show and we were all randomly chosen. The judges and the contestants. So they wanted to see if the judges could "judge" without prejudice. They would go on to award the winner 25K. I was the winner. Myself and the other finalist were the only 2 contestants that got to actually meet the judges and when i met them, the polynesian guy had a change of heart and actually voted FOR me. The edits don't show that he came from his seat and hugged me. It was a very interesting experience. We had no idea what the judges were saying or doing or who they even were, for that matter. so i had no idea that he was racist when i went out and met the judges. It ended well though. I talked to that guy over a meal and he said that he had a change of heart.
You can tell the parents are concerned, but they can't keep a straight face. In my opinion they are good parents. Thought, I feel like I need to super sanitize myself with serious anti-bacterial goo after watching this.
This is the Original Dead Squirrel, Girl, Greyhound... Unexpected.
May, 2008 our newly adopted (leased!) Greyhound, Ivy unexpectedly walked right up to a healthy squirrel standing stock still & quick as lightning, killed it with one shake. She dropped it & walked on, my husband behind her, his jaw agape. I went to retrieve the squirrel to reverently bury it. I ducked in the house for a shovel. Meanwhile..our daughter picked it up..with so much love.

A crazed naked man seen menacing New York City subway passengers on a scary new viral video was handcuffed and transported to a Bronx hospital last week, but not charged in connection with the bizarre incident, according to police.
The man’s May 2 outburst occurred on a northbound 6 train in the Hunts Point Avenue station in the south Bronx. As seen in the video, which was originally uploaded to YouTube by a straphanger, the man yelled racial and ethnic slurs as he finished removing his pants.
After hurling himself into a set of doors, the man took off his boxer shorts, which elicited squeals from shocked observers. As a police officer was talking on his radio, the man bolted from the subway car and accosted a woman walking up a stairway. After slamming a package of hers to the ground, he lunged at a man walking perilously close to a platform edge.
With the help of some male onlookers, the cop succeeded in wrestling the man to the ground, where he was subdued. A police spokesman told TSG that the man, 41, was treated as an emotionally disturbed person and transported in custody to Lincoln Hospital for psychiatric evaluation.
The Transit District 12 officer with whom he grappled suffered a minor injury for which he was treated and released at Jacobi Hospital, the spokesman added.

The video below is of twin girls born in a single body with two heads in China.
There was a similar case in Minnesota. There were adjustment issues but surprisingly few medical problems. Abigail and Brittany Hensel are adults now who seem to be doing very well.
A key factor is which of the vital organs are shared and which ones are held in common.
BEIJING -- A hospital in southwestern China says conjoined twin girls with a single body and two heads have been born at its facility.
A staffer surnamed Wang at Suining City Central Hospital in Sichuan province says the girls were born Thursday.
Wang said Tuesday the parents, who are farmers, did not want to have the babies at first, fearing they could not afford to keep them alive. She said they transferred the twins to a hospital in the nearby metropolis of Chongqing to be examined by experts.
The local Huaxi Metropolis Daily reported the twins weighed 9 pounds (4 kilograms) and measured 20 inches (51 centimeters). They have two spines and two esophaguses and share other organs. Doctors were quoted as saying it would be nearly impossible to separate them.
I always figured "The Situation" was a douche. You should be shameful for breaking your own father's heart, Bro. Dont know the full story here...But...most kids would take care of their parents if they came into a load of money. Looks like Dad raised a selfish, ungrateful, arrogant, butthole son and he is hurt and angry. Karma is a bitch, bro.
The Situation's dad just released an EXPLOSIVE video -- accusing the "Jersey Shore" star of abandoning his family after getting famous ... and the bitterness is palpable.
Frank Sorrentino posted the tirade online today -- targeting his son, saying, "I ask you one f**king favor and you tell me to go f**king be like a regular f**king Joe Blow and go on welfare? No, my friend, I don't do that."
And that's just the beginning.

Tourettes Guy Karaoke, New song. Chris de Burgh, sings Chicago If you leave me now. I love listening to this very interesting fellow. He has a nice website. Cracks me up. Maybe he would be fine if he just sang all the time, 24/7.
Question: Just curious... why does it always seem people with tourettes yell out swear words.. why don't they yell out flowers names or state names or something just non-sensical or whimsical... just wondering...
Answer: Tourettes effects to part of the brain where we keep "swear words" We are taught as children these swear words are bad so the brain stores them apart from normal or good words...hope this explains it for ya...

Obsessed with his own image: White House releases home movies of Bin Laden watching himself on the news.
New video footage released by the White House today shows Osama Bin Laden wearing a gold robe in what appears to be a propaganda video outtake.
Rubbish-strewn: With paint peeling off the walls, the dirt-infested compound appears barely habitable and is a far cry from original claims the compound was a sophisticated $1M hideaway.
One of the five videos shows Bin Laden sitting on the dirty floor of the compound watching video footage of himself on television.

An officer is under investigation for using excessive force after a video surfaced of him pushing a teenage girl against a wall, knocking her to the ground.
Phoenix Police Officer Patrick Larrison has been placed on administrative while the criminal and internal investigation is underway.
The use-of-force case incident caught on tape. A Phoenix Police employee saw the video and told supervisors.
Back in January, at Ombudsman Charter School, the 15-year-old girl was caught drinking at school. When her mom arrived, she and her mom got into a physical fight, and the police were called.
She was apparently belligerent and walked away from officers. That's when Officer Larrison used an 'impact push' to stop her and handcuff her.
"That type of video is very concerning, we don't want that to be our image within the community, but unfortunately we have these things occur," says Sgt. Trent Crump.
"At face value all you see is the force, it certainly appears at this point it is outside of the boundaries considered to be reasonable... We have to get to the bottom of it."
The girl was uninjured. Larrison has been a member of the force for 6 years.
@1:00 Yep, that was uncalled for. The worst part about this is he's still being paid. Nowadays, with video footage like this, why does it take weeks, or even months to complete an investigation? What does that say about the investigators? This is a no-brainer. It doesn't matter what happened before the camera started rolling, she's an unarmed, 15 year old girl, facing away from him.
Internet videos like these might just shape our younger generations and let them know what not to do. (ie think twice about bullying because you might get sent to the hospital if you do. Good message. "the more you know"

Aaron's Rent To Own Spies on Customers - Rental Company Sued Over Webcam Spying
One of the nation's largest rental chains spies on customers by equipping rent-to-own computers with secret software that remotely snaps their photos, takes screen shots, tracks keystrokes, and snoops on private communications, a class action claims in Federal Court.
Aaron's Rent To Own, the lead defendant, has more than 1,500 outlets in the United States and Canada.
In More.. the suit, filed in Pittsburgh Federal Court, Crystal and Brian Byrd of Casper, Wyoming, charge that computers rented by Aaron's are loaded with software called “PC Rental Agent,” manufactured by DesignerWare, LLC.
The software enables Aaron's to spy on its customers, the complaint alleges, in violation of the Electronic Communications Privacy Act and the Computer Fraud Abuse Act.
The suit says that DesignerWare designed and assembled the computers containing the spy software and sold them to Aaron's.
The alleged spying began as early as 2007 and enables Aaron's and its agents to capture screen images, keystrokes and images from computers rented and sold to the firm's customers.
The PC Rental Agent device is soldered onto the computer's motherboard and cannot be detected, accessed or controlled by the computer user, the suit charges, saying it can only be deactivated by a special wand which is not provided to consumers.
In the suit, Crystal Byrd says she rented a Dell Inspiron laptop computer on a rent-to-own agreement from Aaron's in July 2010. She paid off the lease in October 2010.
But, according to the suit, the manager of the Aaron's store in Casper, Christopher Mendoza, mistakenly claimed the Byrds were in default on their lease and demanded the compujter be returned.
Mendoza showed Brian Byrd a photo of Byrd using the computer, the suit says. When Byrd demanded to know how Mendoza had obtained the photo, Mendoza allegedly said he was not supposed to disclose that information.
Byrd contacted local law enforcement agencies and investigators allegedly identified the spyware and learned that it was routinely installed on computers rented by Aaron's.
While investigators were at the Casper Aaron's store, the suit charges, they observed at least one other unauthorized photo of a consumer using an Aaron's machine.
May 5, 2011 - A family that wondered about a loved one's abuse at a nursing home appear to have been confirmed by a hidden camera.
workers at an upscale nursing home in Pennsylvania have been arrested after being caught on tape hitting and mocking an elderly woman who suffers from dementia.
Care manager Samirah Traynham, 22, and colleague Tyrina Griffin, 21, have been charged for aggravated assault. A third suspect, 19-year-old Ayesha Muhammad, was also arrested this afternoon.
Relatives of the 78-year-old woman installed a hidden camera after officials at the home were told they were lying about their loved one being abused at the center. The woman had told her daughter she was being punched and slapped by staff, asking: “Why do they keep picking on me?”
The video shows the employees “engaging in acts which I can only describe as humiliating, taunting and abusive of the victim in this case, including forcing the victim to stand topless for several minutes while the defendant and the other employees mocked her,” the district attorney said. “The way the defendants allegedly abused this victim is inexcusable. Patients suffering from dementia and Alzheimer’s are among our most vulnerable citizens.” The three employees have been charged with offenses including aggravated assault.
All three employees of the nursing home have been fired. The relatives of the abused elderly woman filed a lawsuit.

I first saw this on PBS (Support Your Local PBS Member Station) when they did a show about Nanotechnology. How do you get a chip to take on more data, more information, run faster and more efficient? Microchips have evolved from large chips to the tiniest of chips, but scientists were finding it harder to fit more data, before the 3D transistor we were just keeping building the chips flat, so someone came up with the bright idea to apply nanotechnology and build UP (like skyscrapers). I think it's amazing. Imagine the possibilities with nanotech.
Intel introduced a 3-D transistor structure that it says will improve performance. The transistor should allow Intel to make smaller processing chips for smaller devices. The new design is expected to propel the company into mobile arena.
The Future Is Awesome.
San Francisco (CNN) -- When Intel's drive to shrink its processors while maintaining speed began to hit a brick wall, its silicon-chip wizards rethought conventional design wisdom.
The result of a decade of research is a processor called Ivy Bridge, which will be smaller, faster and -- perhaps most important in this mobile world -- more energy-efficient. Read More...
What's Nanotech: Nanotechnology (sometimes shortened to "nanotech") is the study of manipulating matter on an atomic and molecular scale. Generally, nanotechnology deals with structures sized between 1 to 100 nanometre in at least one dimension, and involves developing materials or devices possessing at least one dimension within that size. Quantum mechanical effects are very important at this scale, which is in the quantum realm.
Nanotechnology is very diverse, ranging from extensions of conventional device physics to completely new approaches based upon molecular self-assembly, from developing new materials with dimensions on the nanoscale to investigating whether we can directly control matter on the atomic scale.

First Lady Michelle Obama has a lot of things going for her. She's married to the president of the United States. She has two cute kids. Famously toned arms. A great wardrobe.
Oh, and she totally knows how to Dougie.
The first lady paid a surprise visit to ,America's futureTuesday afternoon. When she arrived, the students were already out on the field, prepping to perform a Beyoncé workout video as part of the first lady's nationwide "Let's Move" initiative.
Students were warming up to the Black Eyed Peas song "I Gotta Feeling" when Michelle Obama took the stage. As students began to recognize her, they screeched with excitement and rushed closer to the stage.
"Are you surprised?" Obama asked them.
We're guessing yes.
"I know all of you love Beyoncé, right?" Obama asked the kids. "Me too! Beyoncé is one of my favorite performers on the planet."
The first lady praised them for practicing the video, telling them it's great they're working out and having fun at the same time.
Then the kiddos displayed their new moves, although she'd warned them she hadn't had time to learn the moves in the song. "I'm gonna be off to the side trying not to embarrass myself," she said.
That didn't keep her from grooving on her own, though. Michelle Obama performed the Dougie, the Running Man and the Cha-Cha during the song.
But afterward, she returned to the stage, suggesting they do it again. This time, Obama got into it much more, picking up more of the moves. See, all she needed was a bit of a warm-up.
More than 600 schools performed the Beyoncé workout simultaneously this afternoon. Only one school, of course, was lucky enough to have the first lady doing the Dougie on the sidelines.

Meanwhile in Pakistan (as shown in the video below) protesters protest Bin Laden's death and burn the American Flag. These Pakistani protesters held a funeral without the body and protested Osama bin Laden's death, or as the Telegraph calls it, "a Memorial".
Best Comment: Rabble rousing Idiots! More proof that Islam makes you retarded...
A picture of the tail rotor of the chopper that the Navy Seals' Team Six detonated revealed unfamiliar features. Reports say it could be a new, secret helicopter.
When the Team Six members reached Osama bin Laden's compound in Abbottabad one of the choppers made a "controlled but hard landing," according to reports, probably due to higher than expected temperatures.
Temperatures affects the density of the air, and low density makes it harder for the rotor to sustain the weight of the chopper, especially if it was near its maximum weight (being packed with soldiers and fuel to fly in from Afghanistan). Abbottabad is about 1200 meters above the sea level, and altitude also affects air density.
So what machine exactly experienced the hard landing described above? Short answer: we don't know for sure. Long answer: It seems that the tail rotor visible in the picture belongs to a highly modified version of the H-60, the chopper of choice of the special forces for more than 30 years. Aviation Week doesn't beat around the bush, claiming: "A previously undisclosed, classified stealth helicopter apparently was part of the U.S. task force that killed Osama bin Laden in Pakistan on May 1."
Stealth technology on helicopters is not itself new, but the fact that a previously unknown machine was used in this raid is yet another proof of the degree of importance that this mission had for U.S. commanders.
Aviation Week then goes techie and explains what we can see from that picture: "Photos disseminated via the European PressPhoto agency and attributed to an anonymous stringer show that the helicopter’s tail features stealth-configured shapes on the boom and the tail rotor hub fairings, swept stabilizers and a 'dishpan' cover over a five-or-six-blade tail rotor. It has a silver-loaded infrared suppression finish similar to that seen on V-22s."
Low radar visibility was essential, for the Pakistani air force would have either scrambled its jets if an unknown threat to its airspace (and near the country's best military academy!) was detected, or fired its surface to air missiles. It's possibly more proof of the fact that Pakistan really knew nothing about the mission - or at least its first wave of attack - until it ended.
This would explain why the Seals wasted critically precious time to blew up the mysterious helicopter and why many experts had problems identifying its remains. It's unclear what Pakistan could have made of the downed chopper, but growing ties between Pakistani and Chinese armed forces could have made the destruction of such new machine a must. China and Pakistan, over the past two decades, have developed a multi role combat aircraft called JF-17 and an advanced trainer, the JL-8.
The Navy Seals usually fly in the famed Sikorsky UH-60, popularized by the movie Black Hawk Down, in which two UH-60 were shot down in Somalia, resulting in the death of 18 men.
Black Hawk Down was a scenario, insiders say, that together with first attempt to rescue the hostages held at the U.S. embassy in 1980 in Iran, that's been evoked constantly in the planning phases leading to the May 1 raid, as examples of potentially disastrous outcomes. (Via Aviation Week)

Camera man falls into a solid waste decanter at local water treatment plant. In other words he fell into a pool of human shit. He was treated at the local hospital and given "shots" in case he got sick. I'm guessing he got all of them. Located in Antofagasta, Chile.
The photos, taken by a Pakistani security official who entered the compound after the early morning raid on Monday, show two men dressed in traditional Pakistani garb and one in a t-shirt, with blood streaming from their ears, noses and mouths.
The official, who wished to remain anonymous, sold the pictures to Reuters.
None of the men looked like bin Laden. President Barack Obama decided not to release photos of his body because it could have incited violence and used as an al Qaeda propaganda tool, the White House said on Wednesday.

Tonight will be a moment that many people will remember for the rest of their lives. Osama bin Laden news causes "bigger traffic spike than royal wedding" according to Keynote Systems, a mobile and cloud monitoring service.
President Obama announces that Osama bin Laden has been killed by US special operation forces.
Key quotes from the President:
"Today, at my direction, the United States launched a targeted operation against that compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan. A small team of Americans carried out the operation with extraordinary courage and capability. No Americans were harmed. They took care to avoid civilian casualties. After a firefight, they killed Osama bin Laden and took custody of his body.
"As we do, we must also reaffirm that the United States is not --- and never will be --- at war with Islam. I've made clear, just as President Bush did shortly after 9/11, that our war is not against Islam. Bin Laden was not a Muslim leader; he was a mass murderer of Muslims. Indeed, al Qaeda has slaughtered scores of Muslims in many countries, including our own. So his demise should be welcomed by all who believe in peace and human dignity."
