Breaking Dawn! by Intern Alexis,posted Oct 30 2012 6:57AM
The New "Breaking Dawn" ad emphasizes how Edward and Bella's love will last forever. This is very ironic seeing that the real life couple Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart DID NOT LAST FOREVER. Check out the Movie Advertisement below and tell us what you think!
How many people does it take to create the "World's Smartest Light Bulb"? It takes Two! Apple and Philips have teamed up to create the, "Hue". What makes this creation so special is that you can control not only the brightness, but also the color from your iPhone or iPad! The light bulbs will hit the market for $59.00, and will be exclusively sold through the apple store. To utilize the "Hue" system you will have to purchase the starter kit for $199.00. This will include a wireless control center and three light bulbs. Philips brags that their product is energy-efficient and will last 15 years. They also boast that their creation will only consume one-fifth the energy of regular bulbs. Sounds like something that could potentially pay for themselves.. so our question to you is...
In August a judge ordered a man to repair his wife's dryer as apart of the divorce settlement, and that's just what the 49-year-old fire fighter decided to do! Dean Weaks of Clinton Massachusetts fixed the dryer and texted his wife telling her to "test it out". Doreen Weeks reported turning the dryer on, only to hear a "Tick, Tick.. BOOM" noise as it exploded. She suffered severe burns on her legs, and the explosion blew her tiny dog out of the SECOND-FLOOR window of the house! Dean was arrested and charged with four counts of assault. It is believed that he bobby-trapped the dryer to kill his ex-wife in order to keep the house for himself. Dean pled NOT GUILTY to all charges but things aren't looking well for him. In addition to threatening his wife to keep quiet about the explosion while she was ON HER WAY TO THE HOSPITAL, Dean also demanded that his co-workers lie if they were questioned about the event. He is the newest addition to my list of the World's Dumbest Criminals!
By the way the Dog survived and is doing just fine!
Eric Hartsburg is a 30-year-old part time professional wrestler in Indiana came up with a very unique way to make extra money. He decided to auction off a 5 in by 2 in space on the side of his head ON EBAY!! Turning down the highest bidder, he decided to go with the second highest bidder which required him to tattoo the Mitt Romney Campaign logo on his head. How much did he receive for this feat? $15,000!!!! Eric, who is a registered Republican, was completely okay with putting the "R" on his face, however he is adamant that he WOULD NEVER get an "O" for Barack Obama. Eric is currently planning to auction off a space on his forehead.
Meat Loaf made a very special appearance last week at Mitt Romney's campaign event in Ohio. He Performed, "America the Beautiful" with other country singers Big & Rich and Randy Owen. What started out as a normal performance took a VERY wrong turn. Meat Loaf suddenly decided to TAKE OVER and drown out the other singers. He began screaming the lyrics and even making up his own words to the song. Romney's reaction was absolutely PRICELESS! The Presidential Candidate looked extremely uncomfortable during the performance but still managed to smile and sing along.
Meat Loaf gave an interview earlier in the evening leaving many to wonder what in the WORLD he was talking about. He urged the crowd to vote for Mitt Romney reasoning that, "There is thunderstorms over Europe. There are hail storms... and I mean major hail storms... in the Middle East." He goes on to explain that, "There are storms brewing through China, through Asia, through everywhere, and there's only one man that on the other night when PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA, God bless him, said to Mitt Romney, 'The Cold War is over.'"
Word has it that Meat Loaf won't be able to vote this year. He is registered to Vote in California, but recently moved to Texas where he is NOT registered, and has missed the deadline. Bummer.
Halloween Costumes USED to be scary, but "Sexy Halloween" costumes have taken over! If you're hitting up a costume party this Halloween you're guaranteed to see at least one woman dressed a sexy witch... or a sexy referee.. or a sexy ANYTHING for that matter! Lucky for you that's not the only type of person that you'll meet.. below we have a list of the six people that you can find at ANY Halloween party:
1) The Person Who Claims They're Wearing a Costume, Even Though They're Not. They'll be in normal clothes, but when you ask why they didn't dress up, they'll say they did. They'll also claim they're dressed as something that doesn't REQUIRE a costume.. like a serial killer or a teacher.
2) The Person with a Costume That Severely Restricts Them from Moving Around. It might be something like a mermaid tail, so they can't walk right, Or it might be a costume that's so huge and ridiculous, they can't fit through a doorway.
3) The Person Who Obviously Hates Halloween. If they're dressed up at all, it'll either be a cheap costume or the same costume they wore last year, and they'll probably be sitting in a corner looking MISERABLE.
4) The Guy Dressed In Drag. For whatever reason, some guys LOVE LOVE LOVE dressing as a woman on Halloween, and they always act like it's the FUNNIEST costume anyone's ever seen.
5) The Person Who Handmade Every Single Thing They're Wearing. They'll also be way too proud, and you'll overhear them bragging about how much time they wasted on it at least once.. or twice.
6) The Person Who Approaches Halloween Like a Method Actor. If they're dressed as Marilyn Monroe, for example, then they'll act like Marilyn Monroe ALL NIGHT LONG. They'll do this to the point to where you won't even want to talk to them because you are so annoyed.
I can definitely relate to each character on this list from my past experiences! I look forward to actually being able to point these individuals out at any Halloween event I attend this year!!

Well Apple has unveiled the iPad Mini yesterday. I've decided that the best way to describe the new gadget is a cross between the iPod and the iPad. The Screen is about two-thirds the size of the regular iPad, and only HALF the weight. Customers will be able to order the new model this Friday with prices starting at $329.00. With the iPhone 5 being released earlier this month, the new arrival of the iPad Mini will leave some of you scrounging for change in order to keep up with the latest release. Apple is at it Again!!
I want you to take a good look at the man in the photograph above. By the end of this blog you are going to be convinced that he is either the SMARTEST or DUMBEST criminal on the planet! This is 49-year-old Anthony Johnson of Hartford, Connecticut. He has been credited with crawling around movie theater floors and stealing out of women's purses for THREE YEARS. As ridiculous as this sounds, Johnson was netting approximately $70,000 a week! This adds up to about $3.64 MILLION in a year. Okay so after three years we're looking roughly in the neighborhood of $10.92 MILLION!! How in the world did he get away with this??
Well from 2007-2010 Johnson ran a scam where he would go to movie theaters with a female accomplice who would scan the room spotting which women placed their purses under their seats. Johnson would then crawl around stealing credit cards out of the purses. He would max the cards out on shopping sprees or receive huge cash advances at casinos.
Had it not been for a detective in Greenwich, Connecticut who noticed the suspicious pattern and started tying together credit card thefts all over the Northeast, Johnson may have continued his scam for another 3 years. The detective turned his findings over to the FBI who busted Johnson in August of 2010. Johnson was convicted this week for fraud and identity theft. He's looking at up to 74 YEARS in prison. His two female accomplices are facing 12 years each... So take a look at the man in the picture once more, and then tell us what you think BELOW!
Two parents in Wisconsin claim that their daughter, "got fresh" with them leaving them no option but to punish her. The parents decide to take their daughter's cell phone for a week. During this time period they used the phone to take embarrassing photos of themselves and post them to her Facebook profile.
Although their son claimed on his social network page that the parents had uploaded about ten of these photos, only one of these photos has made its way around the internet-- and as you can see, it's absolutely BRILLIANT!
An Austrian artist has to decided to install a one-way Mirror in a Vienna cafe. It allows men to peek from their restroom into the sink area of the ladies room. The artist said the mirror is an attempt to "Stir people into a discussion of voyeurism and surveillance." Don't worry ladies the mirror will be reversed in January so that you will be able to watch the men's faces as they use the urinals. Sounds Interesting... very interesting!
Just last week a woman in Harlingen, Texas noticed that her 12 year old daughter had received a suspicious friend request on Facebook. The profile had no photo and came from someone claiming to be a 20-year-old student named Freddy Love. The mother instinctively stepped in and pretended to be her daughter. After writing back and forth with, "Freddy Love" the mother finally agreed to meet with him in an Walmart parking lot at his request. She disguised herself as her daughter with a wig and a hoodie. Before she left, she called the police and requested that they meet her at the Walmart parking lot. Upon meeting with "Freddy Love" the mother was told not to be scared and to get into the car. The minute she opened the car door the police jumped in and arrested "Freddy". He turned out to be 29-year-old Alfredo Hernandez who was a local middle school teacher. Hernandez was arrested for soliciting a minor and has since resigned from his teaching job. Go Figure.
Marvel has finally released a trailer for Iron Man 3, the upcoming superhero movie which shows a battle between Iron Man and Mandarin.

Burger King has a new Limited Edition Pumpkin burger available just in time for the Halloween/Thanksgiving season. The Burger features a patty, bacon, lettuce, a special sauce, and several slices of pumpkin. I would have thought that this was a smart move by burger king due to the pumpkin obsession at this time of year, but it's not. See Burger King has decided to only release the Limited Edition Burger in Japan... Go Figure.
Adele has given birth to a baby boy. There's no word on the exact birth date, or the kid's name. This is Adele's first child. She's 24 years old. The father is Adele's boyfriend Simon Konecki, who has a young daughter from his first marriage

Remember the Boston Mayor, Thomas Menino, who came to the defense of gay marriage rights after chick-fil-a released their prejudice statements? Well he's back! Menino has now turned his attention to Trojan. He is currently trying to stop the Trojan company from distributing free adult toys on City Hall Plaza because he feels that it is "an inappropriate and irresponsible use" for the location. A member of the Mayor's administration contacted the promotions company with a letter stating,
"I would tell you in the strongest terms allowable that I feel this is an inappropriate and irresponsible use for the plaza," wrote the administration. "City Hall Plaza provides access to City Hall for constituents from all walks of life including many families and children."
The very same promotional event tied up traffic for hours in New York back in August. And since the City Hall Plaza is public property, there's nothing stopping the promotional event from having a repeat performance in the near future. Who knew vibrators could cause such a stir?
SIX YEARS AGO Andy Ashkar of Camillus, New York purchased a scratch-off lottery ticket from his parents' convenience store. He won $5 MILLION!! Why are we just now hearing about this? Simple, Andy who was 28-years-old at the time decided that he would not cash in the lottery ticket right away because he did not want it to negatively affect his life. Only telling his brother Nayel Ashkar about the winnings, they patiently waited SIX YEARS to claim their prize. Andy wanted to ensure that his girlfriend did not marry him for the money and Nayel wanted to make sure that he had his life together. Earlier this year they claimed the money just 11 days before the prize expired. Andy, who is 34-years-old is currently married to the same girlfriend he had. Nayel, 36 feels that they both had their lives together and the time was right.
Although most lottery tickets expire after one year, scratch-off tickets run very differently. Scratch off tickets normally do not expire until the year AFTER the game is discontinued. The game was retired on March 12, 2011. Wow, Patience really is a Virtue!
Sandeep Singh, a 22-year old native, of Hyannis, Massachusetts found himself heartbroken earlier this month when his girlfriend dumped him. How did he end up getting over it? He simply won the lottery for $30.5 MILLION!! Singh decided to take the lump sum, and will receive $16.1 million after taxes! Singh is currently working two jobs, one as a salesman at Best Buy and the other as a teller at Citizens Bank. He has given both jobs his two weeks notice, and plans to use his winnings to go back to school and help his family out. When asked about his girlfriend, Singh says, "I was heartbroken at first, but now I'm getting over it. I'm not really worried about it at all."
I would love to hear what the EX-girlfriend has to say about all of this!
Having a rough day? I have the perfect anecdote! There's a new video going viral of a German man in his underwear, doing a cannonball into a pool. Here's where it gets good... The pool is COMPLETELY FROZEN. The man who expected to break through the ice and fall into the pool failed miserable. Best part of the video? The man begins moaning and claiming that he hurt his, "arsch". Take a look at the video below to find out what he meant!!
A high school football player, Michael Ferns, in Ohio received the ball and was headed down the field for his twelfth touchdown in the season. As a starting running back for the St. Clairsville team, He has already been recruited to play at the University of Michigan next year on a full scholarship. In this particular play Ferns ran a total of 52 yards but STOPPED at the one-yard line and STEPPED OUT OF BOUNDS! The referees who had initially signaled for a touchdown were shocked. This soon turned to confusion as the player and his teammates argued and convinced the referees that he DID NOT SCORE! On the next play, a freshman teammate, Logan Thompson, whose father had passed 2 days prior to the game got the opportunity to carry the ball across the goal line for a touchdown. Thompson rarely got to play, and so the team decided to give him the chance to score a touchdown for his Dad.

Well a BRAND NEW website launched yesterday called YouTell.com. Once you sign up for the social network, you can alert your friends, and they can provide you with completely anonymous feedback on what they like and don't like about you. The intentions of the website truly are innocent, as the site was created by 13-year-old Daniel Singer. He truly believes that this website will allow people to become a better person throughout their journey of using the social network.
"We know that it is hard to say what you really feel on Facebook or Twitter, because you might worry about the response,” Singer said in a statement. “With YouTell, there is finally a way online to get the truthful information and opinions that can actually make a difference and can help you improve various aspects of your life."
Sorry Daniel but I believe that this website will either tick people off or completely ruin their self esteems-- although I could be wrong. To read the entire story [CLICK HERE]
Thanks to an annual report released, we now have a TOP TEN list of the most OUTRAGEOUS ways in which the Government wasted our valuable tax dollars throughout this past year! Find the list below with my thoughts highlighted in RED:
1) Moroccan Pottery Classes. The U.S... has spent $27 Million on a project to train people in Morocco to design and sell pottery both home and abroad. The classes suffered from language barriers with American teachers and flopped. (Sounds like some of my College courses..)
2) Robot squirrels. A part of a $325,000 grant was spent on a study that built a robotic squirrel to see how snakes would react to it. (I needed more info on this one and after watching the video below.. I just want to say, "that's the most pathetic 'tail wagging' that I've EVER seen!)
3) Making Pennies. In 2012, the cost to produce one penny was... two cents. The Government spent at least $120 Million making them. (Do people still use pennies?! Let me rephrase that.. Do people use pennies enough to spend double their worth on them?!)
4) Pet Shampoo. A pet care company in Nebraska got $505,000 from a community development block grant to help install machines that make pet shampoo and toothpaste. (I am 100% positive that there were and are human beings that could use that shampoo AND toothpaste!)
5) Food Stamps for the Dead. At least 2,000 dead people received food stamps last year... and that's just in New York and Massachusetts. (I'm kind of glad we only the numbers for NY and MA.. can you imagine how depressing the numbers for all 50 state would be??)
6) The Size of Golf Holes. Purdue University used part of a $350,000 grant on a study that concluded if Golfers imagined they were putting into larger holes, they would be more successful. (I would have loved to use this theory during my College Basketball Career.. sounds promising.)
7) Better Tasting Beef Jerky. The Pentagon has spent more than 1.5 Million trying to create a better-tasting beef jerky for soldiers. (Call me crazy.. but I think the LAST thing our soldiers are worried about is BEEF JERKY!!)
8) The Attractiveness of Female Fruit Flies. More than $900,000 went toward a study that found female fruit flies lose their looks as they get older, and are less attractive to male fruit flies. (Okay the person who thought of this study needs to be fired, along with the person who approved it, and ALSO any employee that participated in the entire fruit fly shenanigans? FIRE THEM!! That is all.)
9) Food for Mars. Even though there are no plans to send people to Mars for at least two decades, NASA spent $1 Million developing recipes that could be eaten on Mars... including pizza and vegetarian options. (Hey as long as they have Pizza on the Menu they're alright by me!)
10) Gaydar. A $30,000 grant went to a study at the University of Washington to test if Gaydar was real. They found people identify gay men's faces correctly 57% of the time, and lesbian women's faces correctly 65%. (My Hypothesis is that they would have received similar results WITHOUT looking at their faces... BUT what do I know?)
Gary Raub, Also known as Gary Wilson, found himself in a bit of a sticky situation yesterday as was arrested for a crime he committed 36 YEARS AGO! Seattle Police were able to solve this 1976 cold case murder by tricking Raub into giving them his DNA. Ready for the Grand Finale? They accomplished this by convincing him to take a CHEWING GUM SURVEY! The DNA obtained from the 63-year-old matched blood samples taken from the crime scene. Raub is believed to have murdered 70-year-old Blanch Kimball in her home, where she was found with dozens of stab wounds. Raub was originally a suspect in the case because he was caught breaking into the victim's home shortly after her murder.. I wonder if he was looking for CHEWING GUM.. (Too early?)
Monday night Chelsea started off her show with a skit where she's in the shower with Sandra Bullock. Luckily for some of you they were BOTH NAKED! Don't get too excited, because their naughty parts were blurred out. I have a feeling that's not going to deter you from watching the video below... right?
At first glance the Catch-Me-Kitty appears to be the perfect toy for your toddler. With sensors in the front and back it is able to run and interact with your child keeping them entertained for hours! The only problem is that this product is upsetting parents all across the country! Although the toy has been programmed to sing, "Chase me, Race me, you'll have fun." It sounds as though the toy is singing, "Chase me, Rape me!" instead. VTech, toy's creator has declined to comment to media inquires which means we'll have to hold tight for an outcome. What's the moral of the story? Even toy's have to annunciate!
Things just got real.. what does it take to dunk your entire head in a five-gallon bucket containing other people's urine? Apparently only $450.00!!! If that's not proof that we are in a recession-- I don't know WHAT is! The Cleveland Browns fan who pocketed the whopping $450.00 took the bet while tailgating prior to the Browns-Bengals game. This means that he still had to sit through an ENTIRE FOOTBALL GAME smelling like pee. What did he do to clean up before the MAIN EVENT? He simply squirted some hand sanitizer on his head. DUH! The fan's main concern was his wife finding out because she, "would kill him". After plenty of reassurance and promises from his friends that she would NEVER KNOW, he took the plunge. The video has since gone viral, so I have a feeling that she knows now..
OH and get this: During the tailgate a random man offered to take the plunge for $200.00 attempting to one-up the Browns fan. WOWZERS!
Looking at the circumstances this may have been a good luck charm for the Browns. They beat the Bengals that day making for their first win of the season!
MEN! According to a survey done by Ariel, a detergent company, if you want to attract more women it's simple... Wear a purple shirt! The study goes on to say that Women are twice as likely as Men to reject a possible date simply for their wardrobe. 28% of women say that they have rejected a man because they did not approve of what he was wearing, while only 14% of men have rejected a woman for the same reason! HARSH! Other successful colors included a black suit or a crisp white button up shirt.
Three out of five women say that clothes are the biggest deal-breaker! Dress sense is actually the top deal breaker for 60% of singles. 17% of women feel that a guy's haircut is most important, while 9% said that they look at his shoes. SO Recap:
VOTE 2012!! by Intern Alexis,posted Oct 15 2012 7:12AM
So here's something I found VERY interesting! Although today is the last day to register to vote.. the ones who haven't registered to vote are not the main concern! Some of the registration applications have been missing crucial information! Now we all know that applications cannot be processed without information such as a Social Security Number! Valid voters will receive a registration card, if you have NOT received a registration card and believe you ARE registered to vote feel free to [CLICK HERE] for more information!
Furthermore, the State Board of Elections is requesting that any Virginia Voters who have received phone calls stating that you are eligible to vote by phone gather as much information as you can from the caller and contact them at 1-800-552-9745! If you have no idea WHAT I'm talking about let me fill you in!
Virginia voters have been receiving illegal and false phone calls notifying them that they will be able to vote via telephone this election. AGAIN, THIS IS FALSE! You can only vote in person (at a precinct), or by an absentee ballot. Absentee voting will run through Saturday, November 3, 2012. The State Board of Elections is also tracking the source of the illegal calls, as this both a STATE AND FEDERAL CRIME. Feel free to use the above link if you have any information about the mysterious phone calls!
Felix Baumgartner... does that name ring a bell? No? Well it will! This 43-year-old daredevil from Austria has recently set a new world record for making the highest and longest skydive in history!!! After jumping 128,100 feet and falling at 833.9 miles-per-hour he has been credited with breaking the sound barrier! The previous world record, which was set in 1960, was documented at 102,800 feet.
Now let's get down to business! The speed of sound is approximately 761.207 miles-per-hour. Prior to Baumgartner's jump yesterday, NO SKYDIVER had ever broken the sound barrier before! It took Mr. Baumgartner about 10 minutes to make it back down to earth after leaving space. This included four minutes and 20 seconds of free fall and well over five minutes after he pulled his parachute. YouTube also set their all-time record by streaming the jump live when well over eight million people watched!
Pregnant women Nationwide are taking a stand and deciding that they will NOT be excluded from this year's Halloween Festivities! Every year we're used to seeing the majority of our Pregnant Mothers sporting a "Pumpkin" for a belly. This year the Mommies-to-be are stepping up their game with more creative ideas! To take a look at some of these ideas [CLICK] here!
For less than 100 bucks you can have topless beauties at your service cleaning your home! Vans advertising the service have been spotted throughout the city of Burbank, California. Locals are VERY unhappy about the service vans describing them as "degrading" and "not attractive". The Burbank city staff is currently checking to see if any ordinances are being violated, and until such is proven the Topless Maid Company is in the clear!
The company has attracted National attention by advertising their services. The number posted on the side of the van starts with the triple six digits and are followed by the word "HUGE". I took the liberty of calling the company in order to gain more information. For instance I wanted to know how much "cleaning" time you received for the 99$ fee? I was greeted by a very grumpy receptionist and I'm not sure if it was because of the 3 hour time difference or the fact that I identified myself and explained that I was calling to write a story on them. The receptionist told me that they were "not disclosing any information" and hung up on me. I immediately called back with a different approach only to be hung up on once more. Ellen DeGeneres had a bit more luck with her phone call and you can watch that video below:
So we just have to know what you think... Is this idea BRILLIANT or RIDICULOUS?
Although the title alone should make you cringe the details of this story are MIND BLOWING 34-year-old Ronald Eugene Robinson of Jacksonville, Florida is accused of resealing and returning USED ENEMAS to CVS pharmacies. Unfortunately the USED ENEMAS were resold to unsuspecting customers. Receiving an enema is a traumatic experience in its own right, therefore I cannot IMAGINE receiving an USED ENEMA! If you're wondering how he got caught here's the scoop:
A CVS employee noticed that a man who had bought and returned enemas on several occasions had returned again for the same reason and became suspicious. The employee noticed that the man had tampered with one of his recent returns. Becoming suspicious the employee checked the box of enemas noticing that the product had been used. An analysis of the product concluded that there was in fact FECAL matter on the returned enema bottles.
Robinson, who is currently on probation, has been labeled as a "Career Criminal". Convicted of various charges such as burglary, battery, passing bad checks, damage to property, and criminal mischief he is no stranger to criminal activity. If convicted, Robinson faces a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison and a $250,000 fine. Basic Enemas can be found online within a price range of three to ten dollars, and they are NOT meant to be recycled!
Pringle has unveiled plans to release three brand new flavors in November for the Holiday season! The infamous flavors making their Debut will include Pumpkin Pie Spice, Cinnamon & Sugar, and White Chocolate Peppermint. Originally owned by Proctor & Gamble, The Pringle brand was sold to Kellogg earlier this year for $2.7 BILLION DOLLARS!! Reviews for the flavors have ranged from, " They're not revolting" to "They're an abomination to Humanity". WOW!! Pringle fans at the Huffington Post who sampled the Pumpkin Pie Spice flavored potatoe chip, described it as a mix of breath mints and potatoes. They further explained that it made for a, "Tolerable gastronomic experience."

Just last wednesday, Todd J. Kettler robbed a Charter one bank in Michigan by approaching the teller with a handgun and saying, "Give me all your money."-- HOW ORIGINAL. The teller slipped a red dye pack in with his money which exploded as Kettler made his escape into the Bank's parking lot. "Dye packs are used by banks to track down money taken during robberies. The packs explode, spewing dye on the cash and suspect." Without much evidence to follow up on Kettler almost got away with the crime scot-free but he decided to use the money anyway.
You see Kettler went to the Angels Gentlemen's Club in Kalamazoo, Michigan and spent the stolen money on LAP DANCES! Upon noticing the stained money the strippers notified their manager who contacted local officials. Kettler is facing charges including armed robbery and felony firearm charges for the bank holdup. He is currently being held on an ONE MILLION DOLLAR BOND but I'm thinking that with a good defense attorny he could go free with an insanity plea.
My only question left is if the Exotic Dancers were able to keep the money or not? Update coming soon!

A rubber mask portraying the likeness of suspected Aurora theater gunman James Holmes was briefly available for purchase on eBay for $500.
The seller claimed that he had won the mask while "playing a high stakes poker tournament" in Europe, and appeared to be marketing it for Halloween. The mask depicted Holmes' face, the way it appeared in his first mugshot with orange hair and no expression.
By noon on Friday however, eBay appeared to have removed the mask offered by user "realface13."
“The listing was removed because it did not comply with our Offensive Materials policy. Out of respect for victims of violent crimes, eBay does not allow listings that attempt to profit from human tragedy or suffering,” eBay told ABC News. "Out of respect for victims of violent crimes, eBay does not allow listings that attempt to profit from human tragedy or suffering."
Halloween is only a month away. SHOCK EVERYONE YOU KNOW! He was referred to as "The Joker", "The Dark Knight Shooter," "The Ilama," "The Extraordinary Gifted" but his real name is JAMES HOLMES! There is nothing more scary than crawling into James Holmes mind and wearing his face. His "soul penetrating eyes" and "The Joker" orange hair makes this mask the most disturbing object you will ever own. Imagine owning the mask of supposedly the most dangerous mass murderer in US history. This is a high quality latex rubber mask which was custom designed for a private collector overseas. I won this mask playing high stakes poker tournament when I was in Europe. I guaranty you that this is the only mask in the world and it is practically priceless because it was used in the production of the most controversy documentary which will come out in 2013. This mask is sold as is and there are no returns. If you have 0 feedback and you are interested to bid on this item you have to contact me first. I will ship the mask immediately after I receive the payment. Good luck!
Holmes, 24, is being charged with killing 12 people and wounding 58 others at the July 20th midnight premiere of "The Dark Knight Rises."

Did you happen to catch this on Ellen? She sent one of her staffers out to Costco and told her, "you can only speak to people using song lyrics". This is the hilarious result:
I wish I were kidding, but yes, Justin Bieber THREW UP on stage on the very first night of his new tour! Some of you sick people want to see it, others can just scroll down to watch his apology to the crowd. These girls love him unconditionally....sheesh!
