A growing number of TV news reporters say over the past year, there has been an increase in the level of sexually explicit taunts they face while covering stories on public streets. The disturbing trend involves hecklers running up and yelling, “F–k her right in the pu–y” into microphones as reporters stand in front of the camera. “The acronym ‘F her in the P’ is constant,” NBC4 Southern California reporter Beverly White told TheWrap. “Total strangers, typically young men, shout that profanity like they have a right, and I beg to differ. It is deeply offensive and it’s infuriating.” The obscene interruptions started to gain notoriety ...

RT... Northern Ireland’s sex trade ban has left prostitutes in fear of “danger and poverty.” In an in-depth interview with RT, one sex worker challenged the idea of the law spreading to England, claiming “too many” influential people visit prostitutes. Paying for sex became illegal in Northern Ireland under the Human Trafficking and Exploitation Act 2015 last week. Prostitutes who rely on their trade as a main source of income are now being forced to travel to work across the borders to survive. Sex worker and former parliamentary candidate for Clacton, Charlotte Rose, has been evicted twice by landlords because of her occupation. The 35-year-old mother of two ...

The village of Berrien has a serious problem. There aren't enough youngsters to justify having a local school. To make matters worse for the village, which is in Finistère in the very north west France, the population of 987 people is on the decline. In an effort to save the school, village heads announced last week that they would sell off ten plots of land at around 800sqm each for just €1 per square metre ($1.13). Yes, you read that ...

(CNSNews.com) - Democratic Senators Ed Markey (D-Mass.) and Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) have put forth a bill that could drastically impact gun sales in America. Last week Markey and Warren introduced The “Handgun Trigger Safety Act”. It would mandate that in 10 years “anyone selling a handgun must retrofit it with personalization technology before that sale can be completed.” It would also ban the “manufacture in the United States a handgun that is not a personalized handgun” within 5 years of the measure being enacted. Smart gun technology allows a handgun to only be operated by an authorized user. It generally works through finger or palm print ...

Yahoo... Dogs do not like people who are mean to their owners, Japanese researchers say, and will refuse food offered by people who have snubbed their master . View gallery . Tokyo (AFP) - Dogs do not like people who are mean to their owners, Japanese researchers said Friday, and will refuse food offered by people who have snubbed their master. The findings reveal that canines have the capacity to co-operate socially -- a characteristic found in a relatively small number of species, including humans and some other primates. Researchers led by Kazuo Fujita, a professor of comparative cognition at Kyoto University, tested three groups of 18 dogs using role plays in which their owners ...

The brutal aftermath of a violent confrontation last Friday between the police and a man in Salinas, Calif., was captured on camera, uploaded to YouTube and shows what the police chief there described as “horrific” and “inflammatory.” The video, which was shot in a shaky minute-and-a-half, does not show what caused several officers to repeatedly strike the man, Jose Velasco, 28, with batons while he writhed on the pavement in the middle of the street. Just a few feet away, several lanes of stopped traffic watched the scene unfold; the video appeared to be shot through the rolled-down window of one of those cars.

Open carry of firearms, Things to consider

Houston, TX—Like many people I believe in our Constitution and Bill of Rights. There is no question in my mind that Americans have the absolute right to keep and carry arms everywhere. Politicians and some courts differ with this as they attempt to violate Americans rights under color of law. Saying that, mentioning the foolishness of civilians openly carrying firearms must be discussed and debated. The debate about the law here is long over for me. Open carry or any carry is the law of the land. The debate about the wisdom of open carrying in an urban setting must continue. Just because you can carry openly should you? I say that open carry is incredibly problematic and will put you ...
Hippos give trapped duckling a helping snout at Netherlands zoo

ROTTERDAM, Netherlands, June 9 (UPI) -- A duckling trapped on the embankment of a pond at a Netherlands Zoo escaped with a little help from its friends -- a pair of hippopotamuses. A visitor to the Rotterdam Zoo -- locally known as the Diergaarde Blijdorp -- filmed the small duck repeatedly attempting to jump from the embankment to the shore, but falling short of making it over a short barrier. The footage, posted to YouTube, shows the duckling is soon joined by a pair of hippos, which appear to startle the bird as it attempts to avoid the much larger animals. However, rather than make a meal out of the duckling, the hippos use their snouts to the give the baby duck a boost and help it ...

I Was Blindsided After Two Dates -- WTF? Posted: 06/08/2015 10:57 am EDT Updated: 5 hours ago I went on two dates with a girl, both of which were really fun, so I asked her out again. And out of the blue, I get a text message from her declining, saying that she appreciates the offer but is "feeling we're not really compatible for the long term." WTF?

Want...Around 8,000 Chinese students were expelled from US schools in 2014, according to WholeRen, a Pennsylvania-based education consultancy, cited in the Chengdu News.
