Happy father's day, Ricky. Hope you get lots of cards. And a cut of the welfare money...
Ricky Lackey has six children on the way. Don't call them sextuplets - they're each with different women. I can't help it. The bitches loves Ricky...
When Hamilton County Common Pleas Judge Melba Marsh asked Lackey during sentencing Friday on a charge of attempted theft how many children he had, the 25-year-old said, "None, but I have six on the way."A stunned Marsh tried to clarify. "Are you marrying a woman with six children?" she asked. "No, I be concubining," he said. I wonder if you,... be paying?
Prosecutors said Lackey is the expectant father of six children with six different women. The women all are expected to deliver in August, September and October. Ricky's boys can swim...
Lackey's lawyer, Stephen Wenke, stopped his client from saying more. Ummmmmmm...shut up, Ricky.
Marsh said she wasn't sure how to respond, so she let the issue drop since it wasn't relevant to the proceedings. Plan on supporting them, Ricky? Or you gonna let the state handle that?
Lackey, a music producer who told Marsh he was on the cusp of a $2 million deal that would net him $300,000 upfront, was convicted Friday on a reduced charge of attempted theft. Turning his life around, I'll bet...
Prosecutors say the Avondale man defrauded U.S. Bank out of $3,975 by depositing empty envelopes into ATM machines, claiming they contained cash, and depositing bad checks before withdrawing cash on the falsely inflated balances. Yeah, looks like Ricky's really on the verge of a big score...
Lackey has repaid the money, according to court records. Marsh ordered no other sentence, because restitution had been paid. Just a...misunderstanding, ya honor.
As Lackey left the courtroom, a group of teenage girls there for another case appeared to know Lackey. "Oh, there's Ricky Lackey!" one swooned. Lackey shrugged the attention off with one word and a wave of his hand. Looks like Ricky be spreading more seed around soon.
"Fans," he said. Have all the bastards ya want, Ricky. As long as I ain't paying for them...
Like...doods...
Some California teens are giving a new meaning to "high" school. Hehehehhehehehehehehe...that's, like, pretty funny.
What?
Students are finding easy access to medical marijuana cards and presenting those cards to school authorities as a legitimate excuse for getting high. It's for, like,...my attention deficit syndrome.
What?
There! See!
But, where are the cards coming from? From, like, my doctor, man. At least that's what we call him.
A letter was sent home to parents of students in the Grossmont Union High School District. Jimmy, are you getting free dope? Why the hell didn't you tell me, ya bastid!
"It's not a get out of jail free card at all." Catherine Martin says even though medical marijuana is legal in California, the law doesn't apply to schools which are subject to federal law. The district also says the students most recently suspended for being high with cards in hand - didn't have major illnesses. Shocking!
"Students are getting them for things like sleeplessness and stress - it just draws into question how easy is it for people to get their hands on these cards." Like, I...what was the question?
According to the district attorney's office, it's extremely easy if you know where to look. "The cards these kids have, I've not seen them, are issued by Doctor's offices or clinics that sell cards.During a series of recent under cover sting operations, DA investigators identified a handful of San Diego Doctors who prescribe marijuana to just about anyone, so long as they have a symptom and money." ...and where is Dr. Heydood's office located, Jimmy?
One of those doctors runs a business called MediMar.An NBC affiliate learned Dr. Kenneth Johnson of Medimar is the same doctor who signed off on at least one of the Grossmont District students. Nevermind, Jimmy.
His clinic at this Mission Valley office building was closed but down the hall a separate business was closed permanently by San Diego police. Farout Industries, Inc. Patients stated that you had a short consultation, came in and filled out a short questionnaire, talked to a couple guys, got a prescription and then you'd walk across the hall and get your prescription filled. Wow, man. Like, one stop shopping. Soooooo cool!

Being a bit contrarian here, there are three instances where I would think that medical pot may be warranted for a teenager.
1. Chrons or Colitis inducing nausea.
2. To treat nausea from chemo.
3. Probably anorexia.
#3
This is being "handled" in the typical California way... it has been completely subverted by the usual suspects and is totally out of control. Laws don't mean shit out here.
#4
this is in my kids' school district and there is no smoking allowed on campuses, pot or tobacco. sounds like a drummed up story based on a couple kids' efforts to be cute

As customers watched in horror Sunday afternoon, a man stabbed a woman and attempted to set her on fire in the parking lot of a Jackson store, witnesses said. The attack was stopped by a passer-by, who held the man at gunpoint until police arrived, witnesses said.
And other such stories at the link. A good bookmark to check once a week or so.
I take this kind of stuff personal. I used to be a baby, y'know...
LUBBOCK, Texas - A newborn kidnapped from a hospital here was found safe in a New Mexico home on Sunday, police said. Four-day-old Mychael Darthard-Dawodu was taken by police to Plains Regional Medical Center in Clovis, N.M., where she was in good condition, Clovis police Lt. James Schoeffel said Sunday. Transportation was being arranged to return the baby to Texas, said Lubbock police Lt. Scott Hudgens. ''We're ecstatic to be able to locate the child still in good health and to be able to reunite her with her mother,'' Hudgens said Sunday morning.
The infant was kidnapped early Saturday by a woman posing as a medical worker, who walked out of Covenant Lakeside Hospital with the 5-pound baby hidden in her purse, police said. A 21-year-old woman was in custody Sunday in Clovis, authorities said. Law enforcement officials received information from more than one source that the baby was in Clovis, about 100 miles northwest of Lubbock, said FBI spokeswoman Lori Bailey in Dallas. Bailey declined to elaborate

Apparently the Lubbock hospital's fail-safe system failed (at least partly). Removal of the newborn's security bracelet was supposed to lock the hospital down, but didn't. Hospital video monitors did record important evidence at the time.
#2
I live about five blocks from where this happened, Tech Terrace for those who know Lubbock. Cops and volunteers turned the area upside down Saturday. The perp apparently knew a great deal about how the system works.
It is a tremendous relief to this community that the little one is back with her mom and dad, and the perp is cooling her heels in the Clovis jail. She will undoubtedly end up as a guest of the State of Texas for several decades.

HELSINKI (Reuters) - A Finnish member of parliament is aiming for re-election by campaigning with a translation of his Web site into a more intelligible language Klingon, used in the TV series "Star Trek."
"Some have thought it is common sense blasphemy to mix politics and Klingon," said Jyrki Kasvi, an ardent Trekkie. "Others say it is good if politicians can laugh at themselves."
He said his politics posed some translation difficulties, since Klingon does not have words for matters such as tolerance, or for many colors, including green -- the party under whose banner he is running in the national elections on March 18. No word for green? Sounds like a good start.
Non-warriors can also access the site, www.kasvi.org, in English, Swedish and Finnish.
A LEADING Muslim cleric has blamed the devastating drought, climate change and pollution on Australians' lack of faith in Allah. And this faith's holiest shrines are located where exactly? What kind of apostasy rates 50,000+ years of drought?
Radical sheik Mohammed Omran told followers at his Brunswick mosque that out-of-control secular scientific values had caused environmental disaster. like that GPS guided bomb in his cousin's cave.
"The fear of Allah is not there. So we have now a polluted earth, a polluted water, a wasteland," he told a meeting this year. Plagiarizing Gore, I see.
"What are the people now crying for? The prophet told you hundreds of years ago, 'Look after the water'." "Move to Paris and the lovely banks of the Seine."
A Sunday Herald Sun investigation also found clerics railing against "evil" democracy, vilifying Jews and Christians and encouraging jihad and polygamy. Business as usual.
And in a popular DVD selling locally, a foreign sheik exhorts Muslims to take control of Australia by out-breeding non-believers. Rats outbreed Tigers, too, but who gets the nod in a rumble?
British-based Sheik Abdul Raheem Green forbade Muslims from having fewer than four children so Australia would become an Islamic state. Haven't we heard of a similar program in the past? Organized by a certain Herr Himmler?
Behind the closed doors of some Melbourne mosques and bookshops, sheiks push for Sharia law, declare Islam at war with the "sick" West and gloat that September 11 boosted Muslim numbers. Our troops, planes and guns have corrected that brief imbalance many times over.
At a Muslim information centre in Coburg, extreme literature shares shelves with DVDs by firebrand sheiks from around the globe. A little slice of Berkeley.
The centre, run by Abu Hamza, serves Muslims in the northern suburbs. Many CDs and DVDs there feature London sheik Abdul Raheem Green, who is on an Australian Government watchlist.
On one he tells his audience to Islamise Australia through a Muslim baby boom. "The birth rate in the Western countries is going down. People are more interested in their careers . . . they don't want to have babies," Sheik Green says in one DVD. "So don't you think, Muslim brothers and sisters, we've got a bit of an opportunity here? They're not having babies any more. So what if, instead, we have the babies?
"In Canada one in three or one in four children being born is a Muslim. What does that do to the demographic shift of a Muslim population in 20 years' time?
Islamic Council of Victoria spokesman Waleed Aly said he was disappointed though not surprised by the Sunday Herald Sun's discoveries. But he said extremist speech and literature was confined to only a couple of Melbourne groups. "If I walked into (Omran's group) or (Hamza's centre) it wouldn't surprise me," he said.
Mr Aly said he believed Muslims were radicalised by "cult-like peer groups", not hate literature. No, the mainstream stuff is the hate literature.

Back when Mr. Wife was doing factory start-ups in Saudi Arabia, he had a colleague they called the Rain God. No sooner had the gentleman arrived in the country than it started to rain. Two feet of water running in the streets, and all the chemicals sitting on pallets in the courtyard under the sunshade were ruined. (Oddly enough, it seems the country has no rain sewers.) This was about 1987, the first time it had rained there in decades, if I understood correctly. The Rain God has since gone on to work for a different company, but perhaps he should be sent on a short-term assignment to Australia.

Interesting. Back when I was working for Air Force Broadcasting in Japan, I was widely known as a "Typhoon Magnet". Whenever I had to go TDY down to Okinawa, a typhoon would pop-up and head right for them. Needless to say, I was not a popular person.

Was that a local effect, Steve, or does it still hold true wherever you are now?
30 days after I arrived at Keesler back in the 80's, we took a direct hit from Elena (which looped back from Florida to get me). And we visited New Orleans seven years straight until Katrina came looking. We moved to Richmond, Virginia area last year, followed by Tropical Storm Ernesto. Any questions?

Steve, have you ever thought about taking an extended vacation, perhpas visiting a string of foreign countries? I heard syria, iran were nice places to visit.

#2 This was about 1987, the first time it had rained there in decades,
TW, In late March or early April 1971 we had daily rains for about a week in Riyadh. Water was running shin deep in the streets. The only storm sewer that I remember was an open concrete lined ditch down the middle of the main street. And it was filled with trash. The taxi drivers usually used soft brushes to clean the dust from the exterior their cabs, but they took advantage of the rain pools by driving into the middle of a puddle and washing their cars.
After a 24 hour technical delay the Ariane-5 space rocket has finally lifted off from its launch pad in French Guyana. The rocket is carrying a Skynet 5 satellite for the British Military, billed by experts as the most sophisticated technology of its type. Built by Cyberdyne Systems a subsidiary of Europe's EADS, Skynet is the first of a three satellite system providing a Global Digital Defense Network state of the art monitoring and information for the UK Army, Navy and Air Force. It is five times more powerful than its predecessor. And so it begins..

Good thing I am made of a camouflaging layer of flesh over a steel endoskeleton or I would find this news troubling.

I think it's safe to say that if the Europeans built it, it is highly unlikely to become self-aware. Hell, sometimes I think the Euro's are barely self-aware themselves.
(Apologies to our Euro rant-contributors, you are obviously exceptions to the generality)
If the EU did buil a Terminator, it's at least possible it could become self aware - but it would be more likely to sit in the corner and suck it's thumb than do anything else.

Or whine about needing more vacation and fewer hours per week.
This may mean I will never be welcome in Bangkok, but I rather think Thailand's priorities are a little misguided.
A Swiss man pleaded guilty on Monday to criminal charges of insulting Thailand's king by vandalising pictures of him, a serious offence in a nation where the monarch is revered. Oliver Jufer, 57, was arrested on December 5 for defacing several of the king's ubiquitous portraits with spray paint during a drunken spree through the northern city of Chiang Mai, about 700 km north of Bangkok. He was charged with lese majeste and destruction of public property. If convicted, he faces up to 15 years in prison, according to court officials. "He pleaded guilty, and the court set a date for the verdict on March 29," one court official said.

gromky: Same result for this guy as the idiot in Singapore who vandalized all the cars and got caned. You live somewhere else, you obey their rules.
Fifteen years is fourteen more than Michael Fay got in Singapore. If he does get fifteen years, I suspect Westerners will have a little less respect for Thailand and its king. Thailand's image is that of an open, friendly place, which is why it is the biggest tourist destinations in Asia. Fifteen year sentences for lese majeste do not add to that image.

Always sit towards the back of the aircraft when flying on 737's. It's the closest to an unimpeded exit, provided you survive the impact and possible breakup of the airframe. And row 26/27 outboard on a 777.
The chief pilot of the passenger plane engulfed by a deadly fireball in Indonesia this week has told investigators he blacked out as the aircraft crash landed.
Malaysian Muslim converts in the northern state of Perlis will now be allowed to retain their family names, instead of changing it to Abdullah ["Slave of Allah"] following a state religious edict, reports on Sunday said. The fatwa, or religious edict, issued by the Perlis Fatwa Council said converts must retain their family or fathers name to avoid confusion in their family history or lineage, the News Straits Times reported.
Its time that we correct societys misconception that converts must assign the bin or binti, which stood for son of or daughter of to Abdullah, said state mufti Mohamad Asri Zainul Abidin. From now on, the council has decided that it is haram, or forbidden, for them to do so, Mohamad Asri said according to the newspaper. Mohamad Asri said changing a converts family or fathers name to Abdullah was commonly practised in Malaysia as most thought it was required by Islam. He said the practice was actually contrary to the teachings of Islam, which stresses fairness, equality and respect for ones parents.
He was quoted by state Bernama news agency as saying that changing ethnic Chinese or Indian surnames to a Muslim name was awkward and a mere tradition. He said it was unfair on the converts and their families. This should not be the case because they are actually being denied justice and their right, Mohamad Asri said, according to Bernama. Multicultural Malaysias almost 27 million population is made up of 60 percent Muslim Malays, 26 percent ethnic Chinese and 8 percent ethnic Indians.

Resistance to wahabificzation: wahabbi-funded activists are promoting imitation of Arabians in everything.
An elder Algerian commented about the FIS people: Prophet used khol to protect his eyelids from the reverberation of the Sun in the desrt so they use khol even if they live hundreds miles of it, they wear 7th century Arbaic-style clothes becauise that is why prophet wore despite Algeria being much colder than Arabia, if the Proiphet had put a stick in his a... they would put a stick in their a..s
Forgive me for using so prophane words in front of you but this old Algerian really hitted the nail about the Kim-Il-Sungian nature of Mahommet's (1) cult between islamists
(1) I don't want to use the name Muhammad since this has been imposed on us by MSM aned Arabs. Noot sure what was the old name used in English. I suspect it is similar to Mahommet (French) or Mahoma (Spanish). O doesn't exist in Arabic and E has something like a half existance. A good reason to use both when referering to Meca, Medina or Mahoma.

I've seen Mahomet used in 19th century American and English writings, JFM. And naturally his followers were referred to as Mahometans. But then the Europeans were most familiar with the Turkish and Algerian/Moroccan pronunciations. And, since it's all transliteration anyway, there can be no absolute proper spelling.
