Oklahoma city resident 23 year old Kristina Michelle Brown was charged with assault and battery with a deadly weapon on her 72 year old neighbor, Elmer Morrison. He claimed the woman threatened him with a knife, and the reason for it is as bizarre as can get, and quite sick to be honest. When conversing with the police she said that the man revealed that she had sex with her cat! "Because everyone knows. I had sex with my cat and everyone knows" was her statement. But when she was confronted a little later she took back her claim and instead said that her neighbor "does not know about what she did with the cat, she is just mad at him and wants him to die." Talk about crazy. Seems like she might have been on drugs, or may be had a mental disorder. Anyhow, I hope the cat is okay.
Kanye West assaulted a photographer known as Dano at the Los Angeles International Airport this Friday. He allegedly tried to take away his camera, and is now at risk of being sued for attempted robbery. The photographer was said to be injured, but the extent is unknown.

Light artist Michael Bosanko has a very unique way of creating amazing pieces using light torches. Here's the process in his own words, "In real time, I leave the camera's exposure open," he said. "While the camera is exposing for up an hour, I step into the scene and move light sources in a way that is captured on the camera's sensor. In real time, the casual viewer will only see me moving lights about in what seems a random fashion. All the while the camera's sensor is picking up the trails of light, and recording real time in one still image." In his recent project he used colored torches to copy masterpieces from artists throughout history. Check them out!

I have nothing against Putin, but it seems like all the pressure of being Russia's president for over a decade has taken a toll on him. He's well known for his publicity stunts, and has done everything from riding a horse, shirtless, to flying with a flock of cranes, to finding ancient Greek pottery in the Black Sea. It seems that he is desperately trying to portray a macho as well as a humble man image of himself. It's understandable that keeping himself in the public eye is important, but quite frankly the scale and frequency of his stunts borders on ridiculous. May be he's overcompensating for his aging ego? Here's what I mean.
With Hollywood's baby boom comes the inevitable pressure to lose the weight. Take a look at these stars who slimmed down and learn how they did it.
Amy Schumer has been making the rounds to basically do the robot over the fact she had a successful first season of her show and tell everyone it’s on Hulu Plus now. And while her show is pretty funny, I’m a little conflicted about her. Whenever I think about Schumer, I think about the jokes she made about Patrice O’Neal’s diabetes during the Charlie Sheen Roast. Of course, that diabetes later killed him. Now, I don’t want to sound like I’m angry at her for making the jokes since it’s a roast and it’s fair game. But the train of thought just reminds me that Patrice O’Neal is gone and it makes me sad. It’s totally random and I can’t quite get over it. Sorry, Amy. Anyway, she was on Leno and they talked shop about crappy comedy gigs in their past. One of the stories involved performing at a hunger strike…for a terrorist organization. Take a look.
People on the Internet never cease to amaze me with the way they dig random things up and catch people doing the craziest, most bizarre stuff. Yesterday, some folks at 4Chan somehow tapped into the unsecured security webcams that are allegedly in the kitchen of Jersey Joe’s Pizzeria in San Diego, and they caught the gentleman in the above image whackin’ it. Naturally, once the image went viral, people absolutely had a field day with Jersey Joe’s Yelp page, which obviously has the restaurant’s owner, Giusepp Scire, rather pissed off since, you know, he denies that the kitchen is even the same as the one in his restaurant.
