• Teen who fathered teacher's baby gets $6 million from school

A former student who fathered a child with his onetime teacher will receive a $6 million settlement from a California school district.

Vince Finaldi, an attorney for the former Redlands high school student, announced the deal Friday.

Lawyers for the former student had sued, alleging that Redlands Unified School officials knew of his relationship with Laura Whitehurst and failed to warn his family.

Yeah, too much black pepper kills the flavor and then claims it was all the white peppers fault.

World's longest tongue?

A 20-year-old Florida woman has gained an online following for being able to touch her elbow, earlobe and eye by extending her tongue.

Barcroft Media reported that Gerkary Bracho Blequett’s lizard-like licking talent has attracted an online following of more than 1 million people who watch her YouTube videos.

Blequett, of Ocala, believes she has the longest tongue in the world.

“People’s reactions are different,” she told the news website. “Some people react like, ‘That’s nasty,’ some people react like, ‘Whoa, I wanna see it again,’ and some people just get scared.”

Blequett said she learned she had a gift when her friends dared her to try licking her eye.

She said the realization that she could also touch her elbow and earlobe was “shocking.”

I'm going to guess  that she doesn't have a problem meeting guys or girls.

Makes more sense for a truck.  The battery pack weight would make hauling quite heavy.

John Legend says National Anthem has racist lyric

[Blarg]

Really,  this triggered by everything is getting old. 

[gotbeer]

@Redondo that's weird.  I red another article, and he didn't mention race at all.  Just said that the "National Anthem" was a weak song.  He said, and I agree with him, that he preferred America the Beautiful. 

And on the same topic.  I wonder what happened.  Because I remember in the 70's and 80's that the singer chose which to sing before a game.  Some would sing the Star Spangled Banner and some would sing America the Beautiful.  But I would say in the 90's and 2000's, it's been exclusively the Star Spangled Banner.

'Dragon Lady' removes ears

Tiamat, who was born in 1961 as Richard Hernandez, is transsexual and has spent the last 20 years undergoing extensive modification to appear more like a dragon. Tiamat, who prefers the pronoun “it,” said its transformation, which has cost an estimated $60,000 so far, is paying tribute to the reptilians it pretended were its parents after its human parents abandoned it as a child.

“I was born to my human mother in the Phoenix area, but I was born to my reptilian parents when my mother and stepfather abandoned me to the woods,” Tiamat, now located in Texas, told Fox 10. “My whole transformation today is basically an honor to my reptilian parents, which are the rattlesnakes— the Western Diamondback in particular.”

Achieving the appearance of a rattlesnake has included subdermal implants, which were made to appear as horns; removal of ears; reshaping and removal of nose cartilage and septum; dying the whites of the eyes; full body tattoos; and dome implants along the eyebrows. On Facebook, Tiamat credits most of the work to Emilio Gonzalez, a body modification artist who has been associated with various tattoo studios and modification procedures.
