weldamfm According to WKRN.com, an armed man dressed as Santa Claus walked into a Nashville Bank and after a brief exchange with the teller, he pulled out a gun and demanded money. Apparently the man stated that he needed to ‘pay his elves’.
Hmm, how do you explain that one to the kids?

Apparently the frustrated mother had attempted several times to put an end to her sons late night gaming habits before calling 911 to report his misbehavin’.
Angela Mejia finally snapped when she woke 2.30am to find her 14-year-old son’s light still on, reports the Boston Herald.

Rodell Vereen of South Carolina was arrested for having sex with a horse, while still on probation for having sex with the same horse named Sugar. Read more on this crazy story and see video on this story below.
Rodell Vereen, 50, was arrested Monday night while having sex with the horse Sugar. Barbara Kenley, the horse’s owner, also caught him on video having sex with her horse.
“When they arrested him before I thought that was the end of it,” said Barbara Kenley, who caught Vereen in the act. This was the second time Rodell Vereen had “molested” the older horse, Sugar.
Vereen was charged with buggery and tresspassing, and was held on $10,000 bail.
“Hopefully he won’t get out,” said Kenley, owner of the Lazy B Stables in Conway, S.C. “My goal is to get him away from me and my property.”
Vereen was on probation for a buggery conviction stemming from a November 2007 assault on Sugar, a crime that prompted Kenley to wire her stables with surveillance cameras.
Kenley said her suveillance cameras caught Vereen having sex with her horse on July 19, but they were unable to identify him from the footage.
But Kenley suspected Vereen would not be able to stay away from her horse, so she was ready when he snuck into her barn on Monday.
“I wanted to catch him firsthand,” she said. “It was just a matter of time before I caught him.”
Kenley pointed a shotgun at Vereen and he told her he was looking for a bathroom. Probably because he was about to crap his pants!
“I told him he was full of crap,” Kenley said. “He apologized and said he didn’t mean to hurt me.”
Here’s video of the story below:

The body of a pregnant woman, Darlene Haynes, was discovered in Massachusetts badly decomposed with her baby removed from her womb. Read more on this horrific story below.
Darlene Haynes’ decomposed body was wrapped in bedding and dumped in a closet at her home in Worcester, Massachusetts, discovered by her landlord.
William Thompson discovered Haynes’ body after he went to investigate after receiving complaints of a terrible stench coming from her apartment.
Haynes, 23, was eight months pregnant but the fetus had been removed.
Police said the missing baby could survive outside the womb but would need medical attention immediately.
Haynes’s body was so mangled and decomposed that police said they could not immediately identify her gender.
Sergeant Kerry Hazelhurst told the Boston Herald newspaper that officers were hunting for the baby,whether alive or dead,by going to hospitals and asking the public to come forward if they are suspicious of anyone who appeared with a baby within the last few days.
‘We were told the fetus is viable,’ he said, adding that if alive the baby would need immediate medical care to survive.
A friend of Darlene Haynes’ told CNN that she had received a text message from Haynes at 11.20pm on Thursday saying the young mother was having wine coolers with a friend in her apartment. The friend did not specify if the pregnant Haynes was actually drinking the alcoholic beverages herself.
Haynes was already a mother of three. Police said yesterday that they had interviewed the father of one of her children, a daughter, Roberto Rodriguez.
Haynes had a restraining order against Rodriguez, who allegedly pushed her into a glass table in June and cut her arm, then grabbed her by the throat and slapped her.
Court records also showed Rodriguez was charged with hitting Haynes in 2008 in a case that was continued without a finding.
The landlord said Rodriguez moved out of the apartment last month.
In an interview with WCVB, Rodriguez said Haynes was ‘a nice girl.’
‘She had her problems, you know, but nobody deserves to go (through) what she went through,’ he said.
A neighbor said that Haynes was ‘desperately lonely’ and would have let anyone in her door if they would just ’sit and talk to her’ for a bit.
A woman, who identified herself as Haynes’ aunt, said: ”We want our baby back.’
The aunt refused to give her name but added: ‘We want our grandchild back, and we want to know why.’
Sandra Grandmaison, 58, another aunt of the dead woman, revealed how she last spoke with her niece two weeks ago.
She said Haynes had three children. Jasmine, four, and three-year-old Lilliana lived with their Grandmother.
Haynes looked after the third child, two-year-old Christina. Haynes had dropped that child off with an ex-boyfriend last Thursday.
Darlene Haynes put off two visits with her older children last week because she was having trouble walking.
Investigators stated Haynes died after she suffered a heavy blow to the head which fractured her skull.

Cancer experts have put tanning beds and other ultraviolet radiation sources into the top cancer risk category. The experts state that tanning beds are as deadly as arsenic and mustard gas. Read more on this story below!
This latest study should scare many of you “fake baker’s” out there. The tanning beds, which were long considered to cause cancer have now been compared to the poison arsenic.
In 20 studies, researchers discovered the risk of skin cancer jumps by 75 percent when people start using tanning beds before age 30.
Tanning beds and other sources of ultraviolet radiation are definite causes of cancer, classified alongside tobacco, the hepatitis B virus and chimney sweeping, among others.
The cancer research study was published online in the medical journal Lancet Oncology on Wednesday, by experts at the International Agency for Research on Cancer in Lyon.
“People need to be reminded of the risks of sunbeds,” said Vincent Cogliano, one of the cancer researchers. “We hope the prevailing culture will change so teens don’t think they need to use sunbeds to get a tan.”
The lights used in tanning beds give off mainly ultraviolet radiation, which cause skin and eye cancer, according to the International Agency for Cancer Research.
The classification of tanning beds as carcinogenic was disputed by Kathy Banks, chief executive of The Sunbed Association, a European trade association of tanning bed makers and operators.
“The fact that is continuously ignored is that there is no proven link between the responsible use of sunbeds and skin cancer,” Banks said in a statement. She said most users of tanning beds use them less than 20 times a year.
But the use of tanning beds has increased dramatically among people under age 30, and doctors have seen a parallel rise in the numbers of young people with skin cancer. In Britain, melanoma, the deadliest kind of skin cancer, is now the leading cancer diagnosed in women in their twenties.
Studies have found younger people who regularly use tanning beds are eight times more likely to get melanoma. In the past, the World Health Organization warned people younger than 18 to stay away from tanning beds.
Cogliano cautioned that ultraviolet radiation is not healthy, whether it comes from a tanning bed or from the sun. The American Cancer Society advises people to try bronzing or self-tanning creams instead of tanning beds.

Daniel Patrick Boyd, his two sons and four other men from North Carolina are accused of military-style training at home and plotting “violent jihad” through a series of terror attacks abroad, federal authorities said Monday. Read more on this story below.
Authorities said the group was being led by Daniel Patrick Boyd, a married 39-year-old who lived in an unassuming lakeside home in a rural area south of Raleigh, North Carolina. The family appeared to be like any normal family that walked their dog and operated a drywall business.
But twenty years ago, Boyd, who is a U.S. citizen, trained in terrorist camps in Pakistan and Afghanistan and fought against the Soviets for three years before his return to the United States.
An indictment released Monday didn’t detail the terrorist plans or targets overseas, but it claims some of the defendants traveled to Israel in 2007 with the intent of waging “violent jihad” and returned home without success.
“These charges hammer home the point that terrorists and their supporters are not confined to the remote regions of some far away land but can grow and fester right here at home,” U.S. Attorney George E.B. Holding said. He would not give details of the alleged plots beyond what was in a news release and indictment.
The seven men appeared in a Raleigh court on Monday, charged with providing material support to terrorism. If convicted, they could face life in prison. Court documents charged that Boyd, also known as ‘Saifullah,’ encouraged others to engage in jihad.
Boyd and his brother were convicted of bank robbery in Pakistan back in 1991, and were accused of carrying identification showing they belonged to the radical Afghan guerrilla group, Hezb-e-Islami, or Party of Islam. Both brothers were sentenced to have a foot and a hand cut off for the robbery, but the decision was later overturned.
Their wives told The Associated Press in an interview at the time that the couples had U.S. roots but the United States was a country of “kafirs”—Arabic for heathens.
Two of the suspects are Daniel Patrick Boyd’s sons: Zakariya Boyd, 20 and Dylan Boyd, 22. The others are Anes Subasic, 33; Mohammad Omar Aly Hassan, 22; and Ziyad Yaghi, 21. Hysen Sherifi, 24, a native of Kosovo and a U.S. legal permanent was also charged in the case. He was the only person arrested who was not a U.S. citizen.
The wife of a North Carolina man charged with plotting violent jihad says they are an “ordinary family” and care about other human begins.
Sabrina Boyd said in a statement issued through the Muslim American Society in Raleigh that the charges against her husband, 39-year-old Daniel Patrick Boyd, have not been proven.
The seven men appeared in court in Raleigh on Monday, charged with providing material support to terrorism and “conspiracy to murder, kidnap, maim and injure persons abroad.” They’re scheduled to appear again Thursday for a detention hearing.

June 19th, 2009 weldamfm A British man has admitted to stealing shoes right off of women’s feet in public.
Omar Abd-el-Gowd, 26, who said he’d had a shoe fetish since he was 12, admitted to a total of eight robberies in London between December 2005 and November 2006.
He’s being charged with sexual assault by one of his victims, but has denied the allegations.
Gowd told a London jury that he had approached victims from behind, quickly lifted up one of their feet and ran off with one of their shoes. He claimed he barely recalled the details of the women he had attacked, but could completely remember their shoes.
Creepy.

June 19th, 2009 weldamfm A fake ad posted last weekend on Craigslist led to property being stripped off of a rental home in Tacoma, Washington.
“In the ad, it said come and take what you want. Everything is free,” Landlord Laurie Raye said.
She had cleaned out the house after evicting a tenant.
Not long after the ad appeared, neighbors saw strangers taking items away. They made off with a sink, light fixtures, the hot water heater, a vinyl window and the front door.
Raye said Craigslist told her they would need a subpoena or search warrant before they could release information about who posted the ad.
Police Detective Gretchen Ellis said: “We’ve had prostitution things happen, rental scams, fraudulent activity. In this case, it appeared the items were going to be given away, but they were not.”
I have a feeling the evicted tenant did it for revenge.

June 19th, 2009 weldamfm Friday, a day before spring break, pranksters covered the locks on all the exterior gates and doors at Carlsbad High School with super-strength glue.
“A teacher who always gets there early called me on my cell phone and said, ‘Guess what?’” said Carlsbad High School principal Margaret Stanchi. “But I didn’t guess this.”
About 100 doors had been completely sealed before the first staff arrived at around 6:30 a.m. at the San Diego high school.
Custodial staff were able to quickly unseal the lock on a building with 27 classrooms. The rest of the 3000 students had to sit in the gym until their classrooms were unlocked, one by one.
The school had a survellance video but it proved useless and didn’t give any clues as to who dunnit.
Police are still investigating.
Nice prank. It must have taken a long time for the person(s) to do it though.

June 19th, 2009 weldamfm School district officials at Union City, New Jersey were shocked when their February cable bill showed $250 worth of pay-per-view adult programs.
There are five cable boxes in the Board of Education building and one was used to order the porn after business hours. The films where priced at $4.95 to $9.95 per view.
So that means about 25 to 50 adult films had been watched that month.
The district’s cable provider, Cablevision gave them a full refund and is also helping with the investigation. Authorities have removed three of the five boxes. The other two are in the superintendent and assistant superintendent’s offices.
I’m guessing it was the janitor or a security guard. Or an employee who liked to work overtime in the name of free porn.
