Prankster Teen Texts Cop That She's Hidden A Body
ROGERS, Ark. — A northwest Arkansas teenager thought it
would be funny to text a random phone number saying she hid a body, but the
joke backfired. Of all the local phone numbers she could have chosen, the
15-year-old Rogers girl picked one that belonged to a police detective. Police
found the girl's address by tracing her cellphone number. The prank? To text:
"I hid the body ... Now what?" to a random phone number. The teen
said she got the idea for the prank from a posting on the website Pinterest.
Police didn't find the prank funny and say it tied up some of the department's
resources.
The girl was released with a warning.
How a posh street littered with hundreds of porn films on DVDs.
Security worker Graham Mann, who didn't look overly outraged
when posing for the standard illustrative photograph, explained how he found
over 100 'filthy' DVDs after a shocked neighbour knocked on his door to tell
him they had been left outside his house.Batches of the two 'dubious' films -
entitled Big Knockers and Mucky's Dipstic - were found scattered along the posh
residential area in Pinkneys Road, Maidenhead, located next to a nearby
school.Many of the discs had been destroyed by vehicles passing along the road,
unaware of the provocative content. The 58-year-old said the respectable area's
elderly residents would be 'appalled' by the DVDs' graphic contentsHe added: 'My
neighbour came over and told me a large number of dubious DVDs called Big
Knockers had been left outside my house.'They were all rated 18, so it was
clear they were not going to contain photographs of door furniture.'We scooped
them all up and handed them over to the police but I think some passers-by had
already taken a copy for their private collection.'Mr Mann said he hadn't seen
any of them, but added that his wife had verified the explicit nature of the
discs.'My wife put one of the discs into our DVD player and informs me it is a
film about three women with rather large breasts,' he said,
matter-of-factly.'The other DVD, called Mucky's Dipstick, had a chap with his
trousers down who was clearly ready to get it on with a young woman. 'Sue
didn't get past the title screen on either disc and I haven't seen any of
them,' he added, smugly.
Ms. Hawkin's video against porn in plane
Meet (awesomely named) Dawn Hawkins. She is executive
director of Morality in Media, which (according to its website) is "the leading
national organization opposing pornography and indecency through public
education and the application of the law."As Dawn recounts in the video
below, last month, while she was flying on Delta Airlines, she noticed that the
guy seated in front of her was, on his iPad, looking at porn on the airplane.
(It was also six in the morning. But you know what they say: it's never too
early to start looking at porn on an airplane.)Ms. Hawkins asked a flight
attendant to ask the guy to stop looking at porn on the airplane; the attendant
said there was nothing he could do about it; the guy begrudgingly stopped
looking at porn on the airplane. A day or two after the incident, Dawn made the
video below, and has been embroiled in a bit of (coffers-enhancing) controversy
ever since.As I write this, Ms. Hawkin's video has been viewed 172,516 times on
YouTube. It's also there garnered 570 likes, and 23,503 dislikes.I am choosing
to decide that one guy, looking at porn on an airplane, in addition to 23,503
people on YouTube giving Ms. Hawkins's video a thumbs down, does not mean that
while I was looking the other way -- while I was busy alphabetizing the books
in my study, or taking notes in my astronomy journal about the galactic wonders
I'd seen through my telescope -- our society decided it was okay to look at
porn in public
