FBI makes arrest in bank robbery; suspect had posted claim of responsibility on Facebook

The FBI made an arrest for a man that robbed an Oregan bank.  Ryan Homsley was arrested Friday after he  posted a claim on Facebook saying that he robbed the bank in order to pay for his medical bills. Homsley robbed a Key Bank branch in suburban Tualatin on Tuesday. He has been a hospital patient since Thursday and will be scheduled for a court appearance upon his release. Homsley is a diabetic and has a serious drug problem.




Sounds like financial chaos. People say desperate times call for desperate measures. I'd say this guy must have been pretty desperate for money. Everybody knows that it's a bad deal if you rob a bank now days. Back in the old west times people rode in on their horses, robbed the local bank, and left without a worry or care that somebody would bring them to justice. Now days if you rob a bank a siren goes off and lights start flashing and before you know it your like a deer in the headlights surrounded by cops with guns and tazers! What was this guy thinking!? You don't rob a bank and then post a comment on Facebook that you robbed that bank. EVERYBODY has a facebook! People are going to see that and turn you in as soon as possible! What a dummy this guy was. Maybe, since it says he has a drug problem, he wasn't sober and didn't think things through. Oops! Better luck next time dude! I'm sorry that he had so many medical expenses and thought that robbing a bank was the best way of digging himself out of his financial problems. Somebody should have told him that there are better ways to get yourself out of debt.

Lindsay Lohan spends less than a day in suburban Los Angeles jail after posting $300,000 bail

Celebrity singer and actress Lindsay Lohan was sentenced to jail by Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Elden Fox on Friday after her court appearance that morning. She was sentenced to jail without bail but later that afternoon her attorney, Shawn Chapman Holley,  filed an appeal seeking bail. The judge's ruling was then overturned and Lindsay bailed herself out of jail at about 11:40pm Friday night by paying a $300,000 bond.



This story just makes me sick! I know that it not really my concern as to what happens to Lindsay Lohan, but I just plain don't like her. I think that she needs a dose of reality. It's to bad her attorney appealed the judge's ruling. I think she should have had to serve her month in jail like the judge sentenced her to. Personally, I think that she should have had to serve about four months in jail. I work with this guy at D.Q. and he got in trouble for a dirty drug test while he was on probation and he had to go to jail for four months. Just because she is a celebrity and a pampered spoiled brat doesn't mean that she should get out of going to jail. She needs to learn her lesson and she thinks that she can just pay her way out of trouble because she has so much money to just throw away. How about this Lindsay, I think you should stay in jail and serve your time, Go to rehab and finish it completely without cheating, and donate all the money, that you save from staying out of trouble, to a charity or somebody that really needs it! How about trying to make the world a better place instead of teaching the people, who look up to you, how to get in trouble! You are such a waste of space!

Make street names less fun to stop theft

 A rural Georgia county is losing about 550 street signs a year to thieves. The street signs that have popular names like Mary Jane Lane, Boone's Farm, and Green Acres have been reported stolen frequently. The stolen signs have been having a costly outcome on the county. So costly, in fact, that it costs the county $17,000 a year to replace the stolen signs. McIntosh County Commissioner Mark Douglas says that by changing the signs names to boring names will solve the theft problem.




Wow! I f you think about it, that really is a lot of money to be spending a year just to be replacing those stupid stolen signs. I can understand why people would steal those signs though. It's because they are funny and people probably think it is cool to have a sign that says something like Boone's Farm or Mary Jane Lane. I imagine if they have to spend $17,000 a year to replace the signs, then every teenager in town must have at least one of those signs. I think that they should set cameras up in the neighborhoods with those signs and catch the theives so that they can be put to justice for taking the signs in the first place. Stealing is stealing and nobody likes a theif! I think that the thieves should be caught and punished just like any other theif. If somebody were to steal something from Wal-Mart then they would be caught and punished. I don't think the "sign thieves" should get away with what they've done. Changing the signs names would probably stop the problem but I think that the thieves should be caught and punished. They will continue to steal unless they are punished for it. Besides, if they change the signs names then they are just creating a big pain because then everybody that lives on those streets are going to have to change their postal addresses!

Arrest warrant issued for Lindsay Lohan after she fails drug test

24 year old actress Lindsay Lohan is issued a warrant for arrest after admitting to failing a drug test. Superior Court Judge Elden Fox issued a bench warrant for Lohan, but she will remain free until a court hearing on friday. Lohan posted a series of Twitter messages last friday acknowledging her drug problem. Lohan has spent time in rehab and jail in the past for her drug and alcohol addiction problems. The judge must now decide whether to send her back to jail or back into treatment.



Does this chick's drama ever end? I am always hearing about Lindsay Lohan everywhere I go now and it always seems to be that she is in trouble for drugs or alcohol. Lay off the crack Lindsay! I'm all for going out and having fun but making it a daily routine is just asking for trouble. Since Lindsay is a celebrity it's defanitely getting her a lot of attention, but not in a good way. Who wants to be remembered as the biggest celebrity crack whore? (pardon my language) At least she has admitted that she has a problem. Good for you Lindsay! The first step to solving the problem is admitting that you have a problem! The downside to her admitting her problem is that she isn't really working on it. You have to really want to quit before you can actually achieve it. I have a friend that had a really bad heroine addiction and she kicked the habit pretty quickly once she admitted that she had a problem. She hasn't touched the stuff in 5 years now! I just don't believe that Lindsay is really trying to help herself. In fact, I kinda think that she likes the "bad girl" attention that she is getting from it!

Philly postal carrier charged with storing almost 13,000 pieces of undelivered mail in his garage

In Philadelphia a postal carrier by the name of David Blauser has been accused of storing 12,808 pieces of undelivered mail at home in his garage. U.S. Attorney Zane David Memeger says it took Blauser over 13 years to collect the mail and store it in his home instead of delivering it. It took about 3 postal trucks to remove the mail from Blauser's garage and deliver it to the rightful owners. If convicted of obstructing the delivery of mail, Blauser could face up to 6 months in jail, 5 years probabation, and a $5,000 fine.



So thats where all our mail has been going! I knew there was a reason my grandmother wasn't responding to my letters for a huge inheritance! Just kidding! In all seriousness though, I think this guy should get a little more of a punishment than 6 months in jail. That's like a slap on the wrist for most criminals. What David Blauser did is calling stealing. He is a dirty thief! You don't know what was in all those envelopes. The people that got their mail stolen by this guy are lucky that he didn't open their mail. People send personal things, valueable things, and all kinds of stuff in the mail. All those people that had their mail stolen were probably furious about this incident. It's pretty bad when you can't trust the guy delivering your mail. What kind of idiot would steal mail, store it in his garage, and not even open a single envelope? It took that guy 13 years to collect all that mail and he didn't even open one! He must have had a terrible hoarding problem. Must have come from all those years of working as a postal carrier. He just became to attached to the mail!

Sex Offender Sought After N.C. Police Chief's Daughter Found Dead in Storage Unit

In this story, the daughter of a North Carolina police chief is found dead in a storage unit. Twenty-three year old Valerie Hamilton's body was found Saturday night at the Mini-Storage Center in Charlotte Mecklinburg County. A warrent has been sent out for a 34 year old male by the name of Michael Neal Harvey. The police believe he is the man on a suveillance video that Valerie Hamilton left a restaruant with last week. Police are also looking for his 1996 Chevy Blazer and believe that Harvey is still in the Charlotte area.



If thats not a enough to get the police invloved lets just throw in that it's a police cheifs daughter! I bet chief Hamilton is very emotional right now and very eager to catch this guy! Can't say that I blame him! If I were in his shoes I would be putting in over time just to catch this guy. I just hope that the person they are sending the warrant out for is the right criminal. He may have asex offeneder record but maybe he wasn't the murderer. Although, all fingers do point to him! I suppose that is why we have trials. Most of the time justice is served to the right criminals but sometimes criminals get away with it if they have a good enough lawyer on their side. I think it's just sick that somebody would murder sombody and then stuff them in a storage unit. I wonder what makes people wanna do things like that. It's just so wrong. Best of luck goes out to chief Hamilton. I hope he finds the sicko and puts him where he belongs! It's also very creepy to know that the perpatraitor is still in the area. Although, if he is still in the area, maybe he won't be to hard to find!

9/11 Conspiracy

In this article, many people believe that the attacks on 9/11 were all planned. Many people are calling what happened on this horrible day a conspiracy. Many people believe that secretly planted explosives were the cause in the collapse of the Twin Towers. Others believe that a missle was launched to create the damage at the Pentagon. A third of Americans took a poll and many believe that government officials had something to do with the attacks on this day. Whether it was setting the operation up or doing nothing to stop it, many believe this is the reason we are at war today.




Bare with me everybody I know this is a very touchy subject for you! Here is my opinion on this. I think that people are still scared and have blown this into a conspiracy theory because they want to believe things like that. I'm sorry but why would the government sacrifice so many lives just to start a war with a tiny country half way around the world! We have no proof that 9/11 was an act of conspiracy! I was outraged when I heard this! I think that this is kind of disrespectful to those many lives that were lost that day! I think that people want to believe the conspiracy theory because they can't handle what went on that day. Sometimes the truth is just to much for some people and I can understand that. When you read or watch the "loose change" story it really does seem to make sense that 9/11 is a conspiracy but I just can't bring myself to believe that the government would do that to Americans. Oh yea and as to there being explosives planted in the towers, that would take months of electrical teamwork. I think somebody would have noticed them wiring the buildings and the reason that the hole is so huge in the Pentagon isn't because of a missle. It was hit with a BIG plane going at a very FAST pace! Duh! It's going to 'cause a big hole in the wall when it hits!

Man Kills His Wife Over Breakfast

Stanley Neace  from Jacksonville, Kentucky blew his temper sky high one morning when his wife was cooking breakfast. According to some neighbors, Neace shot his wife with a shot gun because she didn't cook his eggs right. Lately, Neace's temper had been getting out of control to the point that the landlord had been threatening to evict him. Neace stormed out of his trailer in his pajamas and shot and killed his wife, step-daughter, and three neighbors before turning the gun on himself. Nobody knows the real reason for his temper.



Wow! Let this be a lesson to all you wives that a man wants his eggs cooked right! This story is just crazy! I think that something had been bothering him for a long time and he just didn't know how to deal with it so he kept it bottled up inside and it kept building and building. Whatever it was that was eating away at him made him very irritable and that morning he must have had enough. I guess not having his eggs the way he wanted them was the last straw! It's sad that he killed all those people in the process. Somebody should have called the police about his temper long before this happened. Maybe it would've saved some lives. He must have wanted his life to end but I don't think it was his decision to choose the other's fates. Geez! It's only breakfast! Instead of grabbing the shotgun maybe he should've grabbed a pill and a cigarette! If you read the whole story it says that he shot one of his neighbors in front of their 7 year old. That is just terrible! That poor kid is going to remember that for the rest of her life. Something like that is likely to tramitize her.

Rare Cancer

Vicki Kelly is a 44 year old personal trainer from Goshen, N.Y. She, like many other people in the world, has cancer. Although, unlike everyone else, she has a very rare type of cancer. In fact, her cancer is so rare that only 4 out of 1 million people get it. Vicki has been diagnosed with Leiomyosarcoma, a cancer of the smooth muscle of the body. It was confined to her uterus. A Dr. Elizabeth Poyner traveled two hours to perform surgery on Vicki. Although Vicki may be alright today her cancer has a high risk of coming back.




I feel terrible for this lady. I would just like to wish her the best of luck. I have a chronic illness to so I understand, in some form, what she is going through. Having cancer is very scary. You don't know if you're going to pull through it or if tommorrow could be your last day. This woman has a VERY rare type of cancer with a VERY high reoccurance rate. If I were in her shoes I would be scared! It's usually the really rare cancers that end up being the devil. I think that it's wonderful that Dr. Poyner traveled over two hours to help Vicki out. She must have a heart of gold. God sent Dr. Poyner to be her angel. It's always good to help people when you can really make it count. I hope that someday Vicki is able to beat the obstacle that is in her way. I'm going to read a little more about Vicki's rare cancer. I've never heard of it before. I wonder what the syptoms are and how sick she became before she found out she had it. I hope she hangs in there because if she does beat this it could mean so much to the other people that have this type of cancer to hear her story!

Teenagers Embedding Objects Into Their Skin

In this shocking story, teenagers have been embedding objects into their skin. It's called self-embedding behavior. Some teenagers do it as a result in dealing with tough times. Eleven patients out of an age group of 14-18 year olds showed this kind of behavior. Some teens have been doing this for years. Teens embedded metal, plastic, crayons, and other objects directly into their skin or into a cut in their skin. With ultrasound, researchers detected objects that X-rays could not, and performed small incisions to remove the objects leaving little or no scarring.


 
 
 
 
 
Okay, who in their right mind would do that crap! That is so sick! Couldn't those kids just go have a cigarette or something? That is just crazy to cut yourself and the stick things in your skin. We used to have a kid in my high school science class that would staple himself all the time because he thought it was cool. All the other students just thought he was sick. Those kids are going to become sick with some sort of disease by sticking all those things in their skin. Lead poisoning, hepititus, tetnus, etc. I sure hope that the parents of those teen are getting them some help because that is just wrong. I would be mortified if it were my child that was doing that to themselves. Get a clue! If your teenager is doing this then maybe its time they went to see a counselor. I wonder if any of them died from cutting their skin open and putting those object in there. I'm sure the cuts would get infected. What would possess somebody to do that? It's a good thing technology is so advanced today that the doctors were able to detect the object and where they were embedded in the skin so that they could pull the items out.

Tylenol Packed Mice Help Control Snake Population

In this story, The brown tree snake has become a problem in the pacific island of Guam. The island has become over populated  with these snakes. They have wiped out the island's native population of forest birds. They have been getting tangled up in electrical wires and causing power outages throughout the island, creating an expensive repair bill. The island has several different traps for the snakes but they have been failing to control the snake population so the U.S. Department of Agriculture has begun to drop Tylenol-packed mice  from an airplane to try and control the snakes. Supposedly, Tylenol is deadly to the snakes.



Wow! Who knew that Tylenol could be so deadly. I like Tylenol. It eases all my pain! It's kind of sicknening that they are stuffing dead mice with Tylenol and then throwing them out a plane into the tree tops of the forest. Although, that would defanitely be a good way to get a snake to want to eat the poisonious Tylenol-stuffed rodents. On the other hand, it's kind of cool to think that something so simple as Tylenol can control a hazardous population of snakes. Everybody uses Tylenol! Its not hard to get! If you don't use Tylenol then you probably use Ibuprofen or some other sort of pain reliever. And yet, thats all it's going to take to solve the snake problem in Guam! I hope the guy who is in charge of dumping the mice out of the plane gets a pair of gloves to wear. Rodents carry diseases. yucky! I don't like snakes either. If, I were a resident in Guam I would probably want the government to control the population to. Not to mention, they have been racking up a big bill in their villages. I'll have to look up what a brown tree snake is. I have no idea if the snake is poisonous or not. Does anyone know?

'Beetlejuice' Actor Dies at age 58

In this article, actor Glenn Shadix, is pronounced dead after falling out of his wheelchair and hitting his head in his kitchen. The actor is mostly known for his role as Otho, in the movie 'Beetlejuice'.  He has also starred in a few other Tim Burton movies. He played the mayor in the movie 'The Nightmare Before Christmas'.  Glenn Shadix has been doing voiceover work for a number of years. He was 58 years old when he passed away this morning. He lived in Burmingham, Alabama. Shadix had been retired for four years and had moved to Burmingham to be closer to his family.



This is so sad to hear about. Who hasn't seen 'Beetlejuice'?  I am a BIG Tim Burton fan! I loved the movie Beetlejuice. For those of you who are still in the dark ages, Otho, the guy Glenn Shadix played, was the fat decorator in Beetlejuice. I also love the movie 'The Nightmare Before Chistmas'.  He played the two faced mayor in that cartoon film. At least his family was there for him. At least he lived longer than a lot of other actors. There are a lot of actors now a days that die from overdosing on drugs. It seems as though he had a nice fullfilling life surrounded by loved ones instead of dieing alone in an empty hotel room with a bottle of pills laying next to him. I feel terrible that he's dead. He will be missed deeply. Tim Burton's movies won't be the same without him and I'm sure his fans will never forget him. I'm normally not into the entertanement news category but when I came across the title of this story, I knew I just had to read it and share it with everyone.

Woman's body found stuck in a chimney

A woman's body was found stuck in a chimney! The woman had went to her boyfriend's house and climbed up a ladder and slid down the chimney! She was last seen on that Wednesday night and was reported missing the following day by her boyfriend and co- workers. She was a well known doctor. Her boyfriend had went out of town when she tried to get into his house. A friend of her boyfriend found the woman dead and stuck in the chimney a few days later when he came buy to feed the boyfriend's fish. It took rescuers 5 hours to pull her body out of the chimney!


My thoughts on this story are simple! What was that woman thinking?! Most people just use the window! Surely she could have at least called her boyfriend to see when he was gonna be home so that way she could use the front door! If nobody is home she could have came back at another time! Geez! I believe they call what she did breaking and entering! That's not right! She would have had some explaining to do if she had made it out of that chimney alive! It's terrible that they didn't find her until a few days later. That poor woman! She shouldn't have done that little stunt in the first place! Only Santa can get down a chimeny and nobody knows how he does it! I bet the boyfriends house probably smelled really bad until they got her outta there. To bad they had to tear up his property just to get her out! WOW! She caused a pretty big mess! I feel for her family and friends though. Thats a horrible way to lose a friend!

Stay at home mom makes over $6,000 a month from working online at home!

In this story, a stay at home mom makes over $6,000 from home! A lady from Springfield, MO filled out a short form online and started working from her home computer. She makes all her income online! The women said she got the form in an e-mail, filled it out and sent it in with a little bit of money to get started with the program she signed up for in the form and instantly she started making money online! The form she filled out had a money back guarantee so she figured she had nothing to lose!


I think this story relates to a lot of mothers in so many ways! All mothers want to stay at home and take care of their children! Not only does it save on babysitting money, but also on gas money and the time you spend being at work! I think everybody in general would like to stay home and make money! I know I would! In this struggling economy everyone is having their share of difficulties! People are losing their jobs and houses and worry about how they are going to make it through the next week! I think it would be great if to do what this woman did and work from home on my computer doing online work! It would give me more time with my daughter, save me some money, and I wouldn't have to be at the boring old job that I have right now! I would love to go from working full time outside of home to working only 10 to 15 hours a week online from the comfort of my own couch! I think that so many people, especially mothers, would love the opportunity to stay at home and replace their income from their outside job to an easy $6,000 with an inside your own home job!

8 People Die in Cancun Bar

In this story , A group of 6 to 8 men entered a bar in Cancun, Mexico and killed eight people. The murdering men entered the Castillo de Mar Bar and threw a bunch of homemade bombs. They killed six women and 2 men. Investigators claim they haven't found any motive for the attack, but the bar in question has been a victom of two extortion attempts. The attack happened aroung 1 a.m. and the victoms were reported to be locals and not tourists. They believe the attack could be the work of the Zeta drug cartel.


My view on this story is that I am shocked! I think that they should put more police down in that area. Cancun, Mexico is a big hot spot for a lot of tourists and vacationers. Even though the victoms weren't tourists! It could have happened to anyone. Mexico has been having a lot of trouble with drug dealers and gangs down in that area. I think that reinforcements should be brought in down there to clean up the mess! Innocent people are dieing everyday because of the fighting between the many gangs and drug cartels! I'm sure that at the time this incident occured a lot of the people that were sitting in that bar were well wasted, but whatever the problem is it shouldn't end in a bloody violent mess! If the police don't do something to stop the violence and the mayhem that these drug cartel and gang members are causing things could get a lot uglier for anybody that visits Cancun! Eventually, if something isn't done about this problem, Cancun is going to lose a lot of it's tourists! Losing it's tourists could lose a lot of money for the place!
