    Paul Rosolie, a filmmaker and naturalist, built a custom snake-proof suit so he could be devoured by an anaconda for a Discovery Channel television special. A YouTube promo for the Dec. 7 special — titled, predictably, "Eaten Alive" — shows Rosolie stalking an anaconda, otherwise minding its own business, before it presumably attacks and eats him.

Wisconsin Police Bust Up Barn Romance Before it Goes Bareback
By Jack Daniel in Culture, Say what?
Friday, December 26, 2014 at 10:20 am



Lots of folks get a little lonely around the holidays, and they all deal with it in their own way. For 30-year old Jared Kreft, the best way he could think of to cope with the holiday blues was to seek out a little romance.

When he entered some stranger's barn last Wednesday night in Wasau, Wisconsin, he knew he was trespassing... but love was in the air.

He must have felt pretty confident strolling past the stalls, seeking out a willing-looking stallion. After all, he had his horse-fuckin' outfit on, highlighted by a sweet, customized pair of parachute pants with easy-access panels conveniently cut out of the crotch and ass.

In one pocket he had a jar full of Vaseline, and in the other pocket he had his trusty glass weed pipe and his...and his....well, he forgot his weed at home, but he had those pants!

Someone in the area called the police and reported hearing strange noises coming from the barn. No word if it sounded like a hoof on the back of a human head, but when the local cops busted in, they found Kreft with a mouthful of thoroughbred dong.

He had a facemask on, perhaps after learning the hard way on an ornery goat at some point in his life, and of course he had those pants of his, but one thing he didn't have was a reasonable excuse for what he was up to when the cops walked in.

He could have at least tried to play dumb and say he was just trying to milk the horse, even though you don't milk a horse...especially a male one.

Instead, he pulled the "horse porn" defense, claiming he was overwhelmed with the urge to live out the fantasy after watching some beastiality porn right before setting off to find a co-star of his own.

Searching Kreft's apartment for clues that may lead to other 4-legged victims unable (literally) to speak out, the cops found the small amount of weed that Kreft had left behind, which just added to his rather embarrassing rap sheet.

Kreft is due in court on Tuesday to face charges of possession of marijuana and drug paraphernalia, jumping bail, and...well...sexual gratification with an animal sex organ.

Kyle Mayo, the Marathon County District Attorney, called the case unique saying, "We don't have very many of them in the county".

You heard it here: there are not "very many" masked equine-fellating men with crotchless/assless trousers roaming Marathon County, so sleep tight residents and livestock.

DEER PARK, Ohio – Ebola, evil voices and the devil.

Those are just a few of the things a Butler County bartender cited as reasons he was going to kill House Speaker John Boehner this past fall, federal agents said.

Michael Robert Hoyt, 44, was indicted Jan. 7 on charges of threatening to murder the congressman in a plot police said included poisoning his drink at a country club.

DOVER, Del. -- The NASCAR driver known as "The Outlaw" testified Tuesday he believes his ex-girlfriend is a trained assassin dispatched on covert missions around the world who once returned to him in a blood-splattered gown.

"Everybody on the outside can tell me I'm crazy, but I lived on the inside and saw it firsthand," Kurt Busch said when his attorney, Rusty Hardin, questioned why he still believed Patricia Driscoll is a hired killer.

In an interview late Tuesday, Driscoll called Busch's assertion "ludicrous," saying he took it "straight from a fictional movie script" she has been working on for eight years and that he has proofread.

AP Photo/Terry Renna, FilePatricia Driscoll, seen in May with ex-boyfriend Kurt Busch, called his assertion that she was a covert assassin "ludicrous," saying he took it straight from a fictional movie script she has been working on.


Busch, appearing in court again over Driscoll's request for a no-contact order, continued the push of his legal team to discredit his ex as a scorned woman out to destroy his career, portraying her as a character fit for a screenplay.

Busch said Driscoll repeatedly asserted her assassin status and claimed the work took her on missions across Central and South America and Africa.

He recounted one time when the couple was in El Paso, Texas. He said Driscoll left in camouflage gear only to return later wearing a trench coat over an evening gown covered with blood.

A day earlier, Busch said his ex-girlfriend told him she was a mercenary who killed people for a living and had shown him pictures of bodies with gunshot wounds.

As fucked up as some of these stories are, what's really fucked up is knowing that there's nothing new under the sun.

The 10 Craziest Things Ted Nugent Has Done
The “Motor City Madman,” Romney backer, and Secret Service investigation target has been proudly doing and saying outrageous things for the past 30 years.

1. Wanted to shoot a Hare Krishna “in the spine”
enhanced-buzz-15520-1334694636-10.jpg

krishna.org
Guest hosting on WRIF radio in Detroit in 1990, Nugent said in regard to a Hare Krishna who crossed paths with him, “And in my mind, I’m going, why can’t I just shoot this guy in the spine right now; shoot him in the spine, explain the facts of life to him?”


2. Called the Obama White House the “Mao Zedong Fan Club.”


3. Compared Muslims to Dalmatian dogs
enhanced-buzz-21003-1334694303-14.jpg

An extended analogy in a Washington Times op-ed from May 2010:
Further complicating the life-and-death need to get these dangerous animals off the streets was the official directive by the czar of animal control, that, in an effort not to offend or hurt the feelings of any innocent Dalmatians, no officer can single out or “profile” any dogs based solely on the graphic makeup of their coats. In many instances, officers have passed up opportunities to capture and neutralize Dalmatians while they looked into reports of collies and Irish setters said to be running free in the neighborhood.

Here’s how the Motor City guitar player would have, and in the past has, handled such situations:

First rule from my hometown of Detroit - you don’t bring a net to a dogfight. You bring a silenced .22 Magnum scoped rifle and take out the dangerous animal with a head shot at the very first opportunity.


4. Dated a 17-year-old when he was 30, then made himself her legal guardian
enhanced-buzz-19149-1334693903-39.jpg

Seventeen-year-old Hawaii native Pele Massa was too young to marry Nugent. So Nugent made an agreement with the girl’s parents to become her legal guardian. This was rated #63 on Spin magazine’s “100 Sleaziest Moments in Rock” list.


5. Performed a song called “Wang Dang Sweet Poontang” wearing just a pair of briefs


6. Called for Deadheads to be “caned” and then raped in prison
enhanced-buzz-14524-1334693996-18.jpg

palzoo.net
In a 1994 interview with Denver Westword:

By the same token, should a kid going to a Grateful Dead concert who’s caught with sugar-cube-encrusted LSD go to prison for life with no parole? Of course not. But should that guy get caned? Yeah. And should he go to prison in an overcrowded cell where a huge, unclean black man will fuck him in the ass every night? Yeah. Now, that sounds cruel, doesn’t it? Well, tough fucking shit. These fucking liabilities in our country have had the run of things, but that’s over. Over.


7. Made this the cover of his 2007 greatest hits collection:
enhanced-buzz-24452-1334694923-10.jpg

thepoke.co.uk
That’s a grenade in her mouth.


8. Rode a live buffalo onstage sometimes


9. Told a reporter he would “slap the shit out of him”
enhanced-buzz-14437-1334694132-13.jpg

In a combative Q&A with the Phoenix New Times, talking to reporter Martin Cizmar:
“Martin, I gotta tell you, when I see you I’m going to have slap the shit out of you. I’ll buy you a mocha, then I’ll knee-cap you. Because that is so soulless. What a far-reaching fantasy.”

(The question was about Rush Limbaugh’s drug use.)


10. Draws a Secret Service Investigation
“We need to ride onto that battlefield and chop their heads off in November,” he tells conservatives. “If Barack Obama becomes the president in November, again, I will be either be dead or in jail by this time next year.”

My face is melting...
The 'Nuge is like the village idiot that shouts scary things but is otherwise considered harmless. And the village tolerates him because it need's it's fools.


Edt to add: I feel sorry for the snake too. Wish the moron got digested and shit out. Reinforces my decision not to have cable.

New police radars can 'see' inside homes

29906170001_4000082205001_video-still-for-video-3999980813001.jpg

Radar devices allowing officers to detect movement through walls have been secretly used by at least 50 U.S. law enforcement agencies over the last two years. VPC

At least 50 U.S. law enforcement agencies quietly deployed radars that let them effectively see inside homes, with little notice to the courts or the public.
635572821143535621-range-r.jpg


WASHINGTON — At least 50 U.S. law enforcement agencies have secretly equipped their officers with radar devices that allow them to effectively peer through the walls of houses to see whether anyone is inside, a practice raising new concerns about the extent of government surveillance.

Those agencies, including the FBI and the U.S. Marshals Service, began deploying the radar systems more than two years ago with little notice to the courts and no public disclosure of when or how they would be used. The technology raises legal and privacy issues because the U.S. Supreme Court has said officers generally cannot use high-tech sensors to tell them about the inside of a person's house without first obtaining a search warrant.

The radars work like finely tuned motion detectors, using radio waves to zero in on movements as slight as human breathing from a distance of more than 50 feet. They can detect whether anyone is inside of a house, where they are and whether they are moving.

29906170001_4000615710001_video-still-for-video-4000463671001.jpg


The RANGE-R handheld radar is used by dozens of U.S. law enforcement agencies to help detect movement inside buildings. See how it works in this video provided by L-3 Communications VPC

Current and former federal officials say the information is critical for keeping officers safe if they need to storm buildings or rescue hostages. But privacy advocates and judges have nonetheless expressed concern about the circumstances in which law enforcement agencies may be using the radars — and the fact that they have so far done so without public scrutiny.

"The idea that the government can send signals through the wall of your house to figure out what's inside is problematic," said Christopher Soghoian, the American Civil Liberties Union's principal technologist. "Technologies that allow the police to look inside of a home are among the intrusive tools that police have."

Agents' use of the radars was largely unknown until December, when a federal appeals court in Denver said officers had used one before they entered a house to arrest a man wanted for violating his parole. The judges expressed alarm that agents had used the new technology without a search warrant, warning that "the government's warrantless use of such a powerful tool to search inside homes poses grave Fourth Amendment questions."

By then, however, the technology was hardly new. Federal contract records show the Marshals Service began buying the radars in 2012, and has so far spent at least $180,000 on them.

Justice Department spokesman Patrick Rodenbush said officials are reviewing the court's decision. He said the Marshals Service "routinely pursues and arrests violent offenders based on pre-established probable cause in arrest warrants" for serious crimes.

The device the Marshals Service and others are using, known as the Range-R, looks like a sophisticated stud-finder. Its display shows whether it has detected movement on the other side of a wall and, if so, how far away it is — but it does not show a picture of what's happening inside. The Range-R's maker, L-3 Communications, estimates it has sold about 200 devices to 50 law enforcement agencies at a cost of about $6,000 each.



Other radar devices have far more advanced capabilities, including three-dimensional displays of where people are located inside a building, according to marketing materials from their manufacturers. One is capable of being mounted on a drone. And the Justice Department has funded research to develop systems that can map the interiors of buildings and locate the people within them.

The radars were first designed for use in Iraq and Afghanistan. They represent the latest example of battlefield technology finding its way home to civilian policing and bringing complex legal questions with it.

Those concerns are especially thorny when it comes to technology that lets the police determine what's happening inside someone's home. The Supreme Court ruled in 2001 that the Constitution generally bars police from scanning the outside of a house with a thermal camera unless they have a warrant, and specifically noted that the rule would apply to radar-based systems that were then being developed.

In 2013, the court limited police's ability to have a drug dog sniff the outside of homes. The core of the Fourth Amendment, Justice Antonin Scalia wrote, is "the right of a man to retreat into his own home and there be free from unreasonable governmental intrusion."

Still, the radars appear to have drawn little scrutiny from state or federal courts. The federal appeals court's decision published last month was apparently the first by an appellate court to reference the technology or its implications.

That case began when a fugitive-hunting task force headed by the U.S. Marshals Service tracked a man named Steven Denson, wanted for violating his parole, to a house in Wichita. Before they forced the door open, Deputy U.S. Marshal Josh Moff testified, he used a Range-R to detect that someone was inside.

Moff's report made no mention of the radar; it said only that officers "developed reasonable suspicion that Denson was in the residence."

Agents arrested Denson for the parole violation and charged him with illegally possessing two firearms they found inside. The agents had a warrant for Denson's arrest but did not have a search warrant. Denson's lawyer sought to have the guns charge thrown out, in part because the search began with the warrantless use of the radar device.

Three judges on the federal 10th Circuit Court of Appeals upheld the search, and Denson's conviction, on other grounds. Still, the judges wrote, they had "little doubt that the radar device deployed here will soon generate many questions for this court."

But privacy advocates said they see more immediate questions, including how judges could be surprised by technology that has been in agents' hands for at least two years. "The problem isn't that the police have this. The issue isn't the technology; the issue is always about how you use it and what the safeguards are," said Hanni Fakhoury, a lawyer for the Electronic Frontier Foundation.

The Marshals Service has faced criticism for concealing other surveillance tools. Last year, the ACLU obtained an e-mail from a Sarasota, Fla., police sergeant asking officers from another department not to reveal that they had received information from a cellphone-monitoring tool known as a stingray. "In the past, and at the request of the U.S. Marshals, the investigative means utilized to locate the suspect have not been revealed," he wrote, suggesting that officers instead say they had received help from "a confidential source."

William Sorukas, a former supervisor of the Marshals Service's domestic investigations arm, said deputies are not instructed to conceal the agency's high-tech tools, but they also know not to advertise them. "If you disclose a technology or a method or a source, you're telling the bad guys along with everyone else," he said.

@lwien - This is exactly what I was talking about yesterday in the storm thread . . . :nod: Stay thirsty my friend, and be careful . . . :)

Police: Man Kills Himself Outside Fox News HQ

Police said a man fatally shot himself outside Fox News’ New York City headquarters Monday morning.

“An unidentified male sustained a self-inflicted gunshot wound to his chest and was transported to Bellevue Hospital where he was pronounced dead,” an NYPD spokesperson told TheBlaze in an email, later confirming that the deceased was 41-year-old Phillip Perea of Irving, Texas.

According to the Wall Street Journal, the man was a former employee of a Fox TV station in Austin, Texas, and was handing out fliers protesting his employer for having “ended his career” just before he shot himself in the chest.

Fox News’ Geraldo Rivera tweeted that the man may have handed a security guard a note before shooting himself.

"Unconfirmed but word is someone handed security guard a note then went outside and shot himself in front of my Fox News office. Unconfirmed."

Astin Martin releases a new car, The Vulcan, that will require special training to drive. With an 800 HP V12 motor, carbon monocoque, magnesium torque tube, carbon drive shaft, and Brembo calipers clamping down on carbon ceramic rotors, only 24 units will be made and they will sell for 2.3 million dollars each. The six-speed gearbox is mounted at the back for better balance. The Vulcan is designed solely for the track, and Aston promises it “will comply with all relevant FIA race safety requirements.” That means you’ll be able to race it, no additional hardware required.

Vrooom, vrooom . . . :cool:

Like one commentor said, you can make meth in 2 or 3 liter bottles so they can leave it anywhere.
