Wow-Students who see topless teacher on school iPad get suspended


ANDERSON, Ind. (WISH) - An Indiana middle school student says he was suspended after viewing a questionable picture of his teacher on a school-issued iPad. This happened at Highland Junior High in Anderson.13-year-old Josh Troutt says he and his friends were playing with a school-issued iPad in class on Monday."My friend let it go to sleep because we were talking," said Josh Troutt, a seventh grader. "Then he went to unlock it again and the cover photo was a picture of the teacher topless."

Josh says he and his friends saw his teacher from the neck to the waist, in a bra, on the classroom's iPad. He says his friends told the principal, and the next day, he and two others were called to the office. Josh says they were all suspended. "She told me not to come to school the next day," said Josh. "It was just unbelievable. I don't understand how he can be suspended for a picture he had no control over; it was a school-issued iPad," said Nicole Troutt, Josh's mom.

Video-Gangnam Style duo interrupts live Super storm Sandy news report


A freezing weather girl had braved the cold on a beach in Norfolk, Virginia, as the hurricane-turned-superstorm made its way across the US east coast to New Jersey. However the special news report took an unexpected twist when two hooded pranksters turned up in the background of the shot showing off dance moves made popular by South Korean rapper Psy.Despite a quick-fingered producer hastily cutting away from the light-hearted duo, it was spotted by enough people for the video to become an overnight internet hit.
Video-Hurricane Sandy brings out the best, including shirtless man in horse mask



FORGET the four horsemen of the apocalypse. You only need one man in a horse mask to herald impending doom. As people batten down the hatches for the Frankenstorm on the US east coast, some have taken a novel approach to readying themselves for mayhem. One shirtless man jogged, casually, in horse mask, as you do, past a film crew in Washington DC, giving the Hurricane Sandy narrative a whole new talking point.

Toblerone, Samsung, Ticketek and Ticketmaster win Choice Shonky Awards for dodgy goods and services
TOBLERONE chocolate has been named and shamed with an award for dodgy goods and services for claiming its 400-gram bar has 16 serves when there are only 15 segments.
Ticket retailers Ticketek and Ticketmaster, cleaning product Exit Mould and a four-star water-efficient washing machine were also handed an award today at the 7th annual Shonky awards organised by the consumer group Choice. "We measured the actual number of mountains in the bars versus the recommended or serving size written on the packet,'' Choice spokesperson Ingrid Just said of Toblerone."What's 15 divided by 16? You do the maths.''
Comedian and MC Julian Morrow, from the Chaser, labelled this a disgrace.
"We call on the government to take immediate action,'' he said. ''(NSW Premier) Barry O'Farrell, sitting on his hands as usual when there are Toblerones going out with inappropriate serving sizes.''
Ticketek and Ticketmaster were also awarded a Shonky for the fees they charge when selling tickets to an event or concert. It charges more than $5 to print tickets at home at the buyer's expense.
Cabcharge also got an award for its 10 per cent credit-card surcharge on fares - despite the Reserve bank of Australia ruling that surcharges must reflect the true cost of providing the service.
"You're paying to pay, which is outrageous,'' Ms Just said.
The Samsung SW70SP 7kg front loader washing machine was awarded the first Shonky of 2012 for using 224 litres of water for a 3.5kg load of washing, when the washer deemed the most efficient by Choice used only 37 litres.
Other goods and services deemed sneaky and unscrupulous by Choice include so-called nano technology aimed at protecting iPhones, homeopathy treatments for restless and irritable kids, and travel services.
How-Sexy breast cancer campaigns anger many patients

(USA TODAY) -- Many breast cancer survivors say a crop of pink-ribbon campaigns have hit a new low -- by sexualizing breast cancer. An online porn site this month has been using breast cancer to increase its Web traffic by offering to donate 1 cent for every 30 views of its videos. The intended recipient for the donation, Susan G. Komen for the Cure, rejected the offer and instructed the site to stop using its name. Yet pornographers are only the most extreme example of a disturbing trend: using sex to sell breast cancer -- or simply get attention, say Gayle Sulik, author of Pink Ribbon Blues. Sulik, who recently lost a friend to the disease, notes that magazines and advertising campains now routinely use topless young women to illustrate a disease whose average victims are in their 60s.

"I don't see the porn site to be much different from the 'Feel your boobies' T-shirts," says Sulik, referring to the Pennsylvania-based Feel Your Boobies Foundation. "It sexually objectifies women, trivializes breast cancer . . . and uses the objectified woman as window dressing for the profit-making machine. “Newer cancer groups are embracing slogans such as "Save the Ta-Tas" and "I Love Boobies" in the name of humor and reaching out to a younger, less conservative audience. Other groups say they're trying to stand out from the crowd of public service announcements that arrive every October, during National Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
A poster for the "Save 2nd Base" fundraiser at Tao restaurant in Las Vegas last month, for example, depicted a curvy model in a string bikini, noting "everyone in pink bathing suits receives open bar." An online version of the ad went viral, spread by outraged cancer survivors. The Las Vegas restaurant did not return phone calls for this story.

BEAUFORT, S.C., Oct. 30 (UPI) -- A 108-year-old South Carolina woman, participating in her first election, has decided to vote for President Barack Obama. Arinethia Ferguson, 43, said her cousin, Joanna Jenkins, 108, of Beaufort, has never voted and resisted registering to vote prior to previous elections. But during this election season, "she just got kind of [got] carried away with wanting to vote," The (Hilton Head, S.C.) Island Packet reported Tuesday."Every time she sees President Obama on television, she really gets excited," Ferguson said.
Ferguson said Jenkins had feared she would not be able to vote because she does not read or write and lacks a state-issued ID card. However, elections officials said the recently passed voter ID law will not apply to this year's general election and Jenkins' doctor offered to assist her with the registration process. Ferguson said she helped her cousin fill out an absentee ballot by reading her the options for each office.

Why-Man 'Divorces and Sues Wife for Being Ugly
Divorces can get pretty ugly, especially when the reason is your looks. A mysterious story, apparently emanating from a court case in northern China has stoked a worldwide debate over plastic surgery, beauty and deception. Fox 31 reported a strange court case last week, where a Chinese woman, who had plastic surgery before her wedding, and was allegedly sued by her husband. The website reported that Jian Feng divorced and sued his "beautiful" wife for around £75,000 and won, because she had deceived him into believing her good looks were all natural, when they had been fashioned from a surgeon's scalpel. According to reports, Feng told a court in China he had been deeply in love with his beautiful wife until they had a baby girl
Interesting-Man Has Likeness Of Late Wife's Vagina Carved Into Her Tomb

A Serbian pensioner has fulfilled his late wife's wishes by having a likeness of her vagina engraved on her tombstone. Milan Marinkovic lost his wife three years ago - but her presence continues to be felt - and seen - in a unique way. The 75-year-old says the tribute was carved to ensure he "never looked for another woman". And forward thinking Milena apparently provided a number of photographs to ensure maximum accuracy.  Retired truck-driver Milan paid €2,600 for the tomb and the engraving, but admits he had trouble finding a sculptor willing to make the unique carving. Several stonemasons dismissed the job as "blasphemous", but all's well that ends well, because Milena's dying wish has finally been fulfilled.

Wow-Cyclist in late night naked bike ride left £200 out of pocket
 
Police in hot pursuit of a speeding cyclist in Poland were left shocked when they finally caught up with him riding completely naked and wearing his pants on his head. Traffic police moved to arrest the rider after he set off a speed camera in Bialy Bor, northern Poland. The cyclist, Piotr Chmielewski - then fully clothed - had been flagged for exceeding the 30mph (48km/h) speed limit in place. But by the time traffic police had caught up with the cyclist they found him completely naked apart from his underwear, which he was wearing on his head.
Local police spokesman Waldemar Lada said: 'He was fined twice - once for speeding and again for indecent exposure.' Mr Chmielewski, who was fined a total of £200, disputed the allegations of nudity made against him, arguing, unsuccessfully as it would later turn out, that he was in fact wearing a thong.
Lesson-Man Who Helped Auction off Virginity, Could Face Sex Trafficking Charges

Don't spend that $780,000 just yet. Justin Sisely, the director who helped a woman auction off her virginity as part of a documentary, may face sex trafficking charges, according to the Daily Mail. Brazilian Catarina Migliorini sold her virginity last week in an online auction to a man in Japan known as "Natsu" for $780,000. The pair plan to seal the deal in
a plane flying over international waters to avoid prostitution laws. Brazil’s attorney general, Joao Pedro de Saboia Bandeira de Mello Filho, ordered an "urgent investigation," to look into the auction, which he equated to "people trafficking."The AG wrote a letter to the country's foreign minister insisting that Sisely's plan "looks to me like the crime of people trafficking, whose repression is provided for in international treaties."He also said Migliorini, who currently lives in Australia, should have her passport revoked and she should be returned to Brazil for "the exercise of prostitution".

Healthy-Watching horror films can cause you to lose weight
Watching a horror film burns off as many calories as there are in a ­chocolate bar. Scientists recorded the heart rate, oxygen intake and carbon dioxide output of movie fans as they watched a selection of scary movies. They found feelings of fear, which triggered the release of adrenalin and raised metabolic rate, could burn 113 calories in 90 minutes – the same as a 30-minute walk.
And The Shining, starring Jack Nicholson, was the best calorie burner of the lot.
Dr Richard Mackenzie of the University of Westminster, which held the study with movie rental firm LoveFilm, said: “The 10 films tested set pulses racing. “Adrenaline is known to lower the appetite, increase the basal metabolic rate and ultimately burn calories.”
Westminster University’s scare rankings:
1. The Shining: 184 calories;
2. Jaws: 161;
3. The Exorcist: 158;
4. Alien: 152;
5. Saw: 133;
6. A Nightmare on Elm Street: 118;
7. Paranormal Activity: 111;
8. The Blair Witch Project: 105;
9. The Texas Chain Saw Massacre: 107;
10. [Rec]: 101.
Lucky-First-time mum gives birth to twins at 61

A woman has given birth to twins at the age of 61 after over 30 years of trying for a baby.Antonia Asti used 10-year-old frozen embryos to get pregnant with daughter Sofia and son Roberto. The retired secretary said: “I’m thrilled. All I ever wanted to be is a mother and now my dream has finally come true. I fought for so long.” Mrs Asti, of Sao Paulo, Brazil, struggled for years for a baby with carpenter husband Jose, 55, and first tried IVF aged 51.When that failed she tried to adopt but was deemed too old. The ageing embryos were successfully artificially inseminated this year at the fourth attempt.

Why- Teacher Who Mocked Looks, Brains Of His Students Now On Firing Line

A Florida school superintendent is seeking to fire a middle school teacher for repeatedly denigrating the looks and intelligence of his students, according to a termination letter.The charges against Robert Fine are contained in a letter drafted this month by Heather Fiorentino, who heads the Pasco county school board. The October 5 missive notes that Fine has been involved in troubling classroom incidents dating back four years.
Fine, 65, holds a teacher certification for “General Science, (grades 5-9),” according to Florida Department of Education records. Despite being reprimanded, Fine has continued using “sarcasm and demeaning humor” when interacting with students, reported Fiorentino, whose letter cited several examples of inappropriate classroom behavior, including:
* Remarking on one girl’s appearance, Fine told her, “Honey, you look bad every day. Pages will be turning in the yearbook and mirrors will be smashing.”
* A girl told school officials that when she had the hiccups, Fine suggested that she “go into the restroom and look into the mirror and ‘scare’ the hiccups away.”
* Other students reported an incident where “a male student called out in class when a female student was unable to answer a question” Fine had posed to her. The teacher responded by telling the girl that she was a “great ventriloquist,” noting that, “I asked you a question and you made the answer come out of the dummy in the back.”

Why-Daredevils' roller-coaster tattoo stunt admittedly 'stupid'
VANCOUVER -- Don’t try this at home, if perchance you have a roller-coaster in your yard and a tattoo gun lying around. Stunt performer, The Great Orbax, attempted to tattoo a smiley face — complete with lolling tongue — on his brother’s bare leg while riding Playland’s bump-riddled roller-coaster Tuesday. He and the freshly tattooed Sweet Pepper Klopek are known as the Monsters of Schlock. The daredevil duo usually performs painful stunts in the name of entertainment. They hold five Guinness world records, including “most mousetraps set off on the human tongue in one minute,” and “farthest distance to pull a vehicle using fishhooks in the back.” “We’ve done way more dangerous things, but this is by far the stupidest thing we’ve ever attempted,” Orbax said, minutes before the coaster set off.
The Canadian brothers have been performing together all over the world for 10 years. Now, five years into their run at Fright Night, they proposed the brilliant tattoo plan to the Pacific National Exhibition. “They jumped at the idea,” Orbex said, laughing. “I think after working with us for so long, they wanted to see us get hurt.” And his experience tattooing? “We both have tattoos,” Orbex hedged. Thomas Lockhart, a local tattoo artist at Westcoast Tattoo, said the stunt posed no real danger to Klopek’s life, but was concerned about the stunt’s unsterile, turbulent conditions. “I wouldn’t let someone tattoo me on a roller-coaster.”
How-Moose smashes police cruiser
A Mountie in northern British Columbia got the fright of his life when a moose climbed on top of his cruiser, smashed his driver's side window and struck him on the shoulder early Thursday. The officer saw two moose crossing the road in Prince George, B.C., just before 1 a.m., and tried to stop another vehicle travelling toward the large animals. But as the officer got close to the creatures, the bull moose attacked. "The moose first broke the front grill and bumper, and then stepped on to the vehicle causing dents to the hood, roof and breaking the windshield," RCMP said in a release. The animal continued to stomp and kick, and one of the animal's hoofs smashed the driver's side window, hitting the officer on the left shoulder. Aside from a bruise, he was not seriously injured.
Lucky-Lottery winner: 'Thank God I just got dumped'
Not only is he a 22-year-old with $30.5 million, but he gets the money all to himself.Money can't buy you love but it can help you move on from it; Singh won the Mega Millions jackpot just ONE day after he was dumped by his girlfriend. When asked if there was a lucky lady in his life with whom to share his winnings, Sunny, from Massachusetts, said: "No lucky girlfriend, just broke up with her. "Thank god."He clarified this, adding that she in fact dumped him."I was heartbroken at first, but now I'm getting over it," he said. Yeah. Winning $30.5 million will do that to you. What have you done to win your break-up?
Wow-Alicia Richman Wins World Record For 'Most Breast milk Donated'
Alicia Richman of Granbury, Tex. has been declared the new Guinness World Record holder for "Most Breastmilk Donated," CBS DFW reports. Between June 2011 and March 2012, The 28-year-old mother of one donated 11,115 ounces -- or 694 pounds -- of breastmilk to charity, according to Guinness. By volume, that's about 87 gallons. Richman told CBS that after she gave birth in March 2011, she began pumping and storing her milk, and quickly realized she was producing much more than her son could consume.
 When two freezers were chock full of pumped milk, Richman contacted the Mothers' Milk Bank of North Texas, an nonprofit that collects breast milk donations for critically ill and premature infants in need.Her donations have fed "hundreds, and more likely, thousands of premature babies across the United States," Amy Vickers, executive director of the milk bank, says in a press release.
What-Soldier 'watched from Afghanistan as wife had sex with young girl over Skype
A soldier serving as a military police officer allegedly watched from Afghanistan as his wife had sex with a 15-year-old girl over the video chat service Skype, police have said. Shawn Raymo, 22, and his wife Jessica Raymo, 21, were both arrested on Tuesday on charges of using of child in a sexual performance and endangering child welfare. Police say Jessica Raymo broadcast the performance from the couple's home on the Fort Drum in Upstate New York.
The alleged crime took place in July 2011, when Shawn Raymo was deployed in Afghanistan. He returned from deployment last fall, though the charges only recently came to light, police say. It's unclear what the young couple's relation to the 15-year-old girl is, though the Utica Observer-Dispatch reports that she may have been from Madison County, which is about two hours south of Fort Drum. Police say Jessica Raymo had oral sex with the teen and broadcast it from her webcam to her husband, via the internet.

Lucky-Van smashes into store, nearly crushes clerk
QUEBEC CITY — A receptionist says it was either luck or a guardian angel that saved her life when an out-of-control minivan smashed through the front of a store and crushed her desk. Nathalie Lacroix escaped with minor injuries Monday when an elderly man crashed his minivan through a medical supply store in the provincial capital. Surveillance video obtained by QMI Agency shows the van lurching forward and driving right into the Medi-Select store where Lacroix was sitting at the front desk. She didn't seem to notice the van until it had smashed her desk to pieces, but she was somehow squeezed out of the way and into the arms of a colleague. "All I remember is feeling the counter hit my arm and my back," she told QMI Agency. "I ran off, screaming in the store, then I fell into my friend's arms."
Try-Hotel offers up coffee made from elephant dung
A luxury Thai hotel chain is offering a coffee blend made from elephant dung. The Black Ivory blend, made from coffee beans digested and excreted byThai elephants, is billed as producing a particularly smooth cup.But it is not cheap, with Anantara Hotels saying the "naturally refined" coffee costs $1,100 (£680) per kilogram – making it one of the most expensive blends in the  world. "Research indicates that during digestion, the enzymes of the elephant break down coffee protein," the Thai-based hotel group, which is selling the pungent brew at around $50 for two cups, said in a statement sent to AFP Thursday. “Since protein is one of the main factors responsible for bitterness in coffee, less protein means almost no bitterness."Once the elephants have digested the coffee berries, the beans are picked out of their dung by mahouts – their trainers – and then sun-dried.
Viral-Gangnam Style Halloween house

Earlier this week, United Nations chief Ban Ki-moon surprised everyone by going Gangnam with South Korean pop sensation Psy. And now a US lighting expert has

Wow-Brazilian woman sells virginity for $780,000


A 20-year-old Brazilian woman has sold her virginity for $780,000 in an online auction to a Japanese man known simply as Natsu. Catarina Migliorini's virginity auction was organized by Virgins Wanted, the project of Australian filmmaker Justin Sisely. Both Migliorini and a young male virgin, Alexander Stepanov, hocked their virginity online.


Stepanov's first time went to a buy identified as Nene B. from Brazil for a mere $3,000 US. The auction had been live since Sept. 17, but until Wednesday - the last day of bidding - the highest bid for Migliorini had been $150,000. Natsu beat out five other high rollers who all bid in excess of $600,000 for the chance to bed the virgin. Under the rules of the auction, Migliorini will be examined by a gynecologist and will "provide the winning bidder with medical evidence of her virginity." Stepanov's virginity cannot be medically proven, so he and two of his family members will give "statutory declarations to support his claim."
Speaking last month with the Folha de S. Paulo newspaper, Migliorini said she got involved with the project two years ago when she saw a story about an Australian filmmaker who was looking for a virgin. She claims she wants to open an NGO with her winnings and invest in a public-housing project for poor families in Santa Catarina, where she was born. But speaking with the Huffington Post recently, Sisely said he was skeptical of Migliorini's purported good intentions. "I was surprised she said that because in all my dealings with her, she made it clear that it was a business decision for her," he said. "Now, given how big this story is in Brazil, she's trapped. If she doesn't give any money to charity, she's going to look bad." The winning bidders must submit to a medical examination and a police check, and cannot be intoxicated during their time with the virgins. No kissing or fellatio is allowed, and although the virgins and the winners are to agree about the length and duration of the sex, "the minimum consummation time is one hour," the rules state. Migliorini, who said she doesn't think of it as prostitution, said the sex will happen in a private airplane. The Virgins Wanted website said only that "the sexual act will take place where it is not illegal."
Nice-World’s biggest bra put up for auction for Charity


EBay users will be hoping to bag a bra-gain when bidding on the item, which has a starting price of £500 and the size of a mega 1,360B. It is modelled on a 34B t-shirt bra and is almost the size of two tennis courts, weighing the equivalent of 1,800 traditional bras. The director of Chillisauce.co.uk, Adrian Simpson, whose group is auctioning off the bra, said he hoped the auction would do a great deal of good for the campaign. 'Our aim in auctioning the bra is to build awareness and involvement in Wear It Pink Day as well as raise money for Breast Cancer Campaign in the process,' he said. Those interested in the item don't have much longer to bid, with the auction coming to a close this Sunday.
