  1. Inmates who have served time at the Clinton Correctional Facility here tell of being taken aside by a sergeant soon after they arrive and given a warning: Cross the guards, and bad things can happen.

    And they do. Inmates describe being ambushed by guards and beaten, taunted with racial slurs, and kept out of sight, in solitary confinement, until the injuries inflicted on them have healed enough to avoid arousing suspicion.

  2. One current event is the movie industry. The Star Wars series is making a big comeback this weekend. The upcoming film The Force Awakens is projected to make a billion dollars in its first week. If it does it will break every movie record possible.

There have been many new cases where these hover boards have been catching fire which burn houses and injure people. So watch out for your board.
    Ed Sheeran has to take some time off the road now. After his tour he will be going into a surgery because his eardrum has a hole in it. He said "I have to have an operation in January on my ear because I stupidly jumped off a yacht really high up and smashed it". Good luck to Ed Sheeran and I hope his operation is a success.

When the witness later walked past him, they were able to see his face. Abaaoud's head was shaved and he was wearing layers of loose clothing, but when photographs were later published in the media the witness immediately recognized him and alerted the authorities.A man wielding two handguns was shot and killed at a Walmart in Pennsylvania, authorities said.

  15. Rose Siggins, the actress who played Legless Suzi in "America Horror Story: Freak Show" has died ... TMZ has learned.
    A rep for Rose told TMZ she went in for a kidney stone surgery on Monday and never came out of the hospital alive. We're told Rose contracted an infection, which spread through her body and ultimately became fatal. She died Saturday morning in a Denver hospital. Rose was born with a rare genetic disorder called sacral agenesis and we're told she suffered from kidney and pancreas issues her whole life.


    Kim Kardashian and Kanye West's new bundle of joy will be their last ... doctors have warned her another pregnancy would be like playing with fire. Kim's been open about her pregnancy struggles, suffering from placenta accreta -- a potentially life threatening condition -- during both. We're told docs have told her it's nearly a guarantee she'd get accreta again, putting her and her baby's lives at risk. A source close to the family tells us Kim is also scared of another extremely painful birth, like the one with Saint ... and that's helped her make the decision easier. However, we're told the couple is completely cool with capping off their brood at two kids. Our source says they're plenty busy with North and Saint and a new addition would be just too much.

  27. In northern Argentina there was a bus crash that killed at least 41 police officers for reasons still unknown. They are still investigating the situation I guess. I didn't see any detailed information about this incident.

    There was a mass shooting in San Bernardino which resulted in 14 deaths. The report was that a couple that came from Siberia had been planning this for awhile but they just now had reacted. They are searching for some evidence that they believe the couple may have his in the river or whatever. Sorry this doesn't seem accurate but I don't really know any recent news and when I go to find it it's not detailed...you know what just go on the news later and you'll see probably.

  42. An enormous plesiosaur was discovered some days ago by paleontologist, Fernando Novas, and was seen today at the Bernadino Rivadavia Natural Science Museum. They state that the beast could`ve roamed in what is Patagonia, and is one of many great finds in history that still occur today.

    Another article today also talks about how the marine reptiles could`ve gone extinct. In the infamous event that ended a great race of powerful animals, the dinosaurs, they were also exterminated alongside various other terrestrial and non-terrestrial species: such as the plesiosaurs. Scientists were puzzled at how the aquatic species of that time ended up dying to alongside their land-based cousins, which lead them to deduce that during the time of the asteroid impact, debris got into the atmosphere and poisoned the water cycle, resulting in acid rain that fell back to the oceans and killed the plesiosaurs who weren`t adapted to acidic moisture.

    According to the CDC, overdose on prescription drugs and heroine is the leading cause of death. It is an unintentional death of Americans, rising 14 percent from 2013 to 2014. This is ridiculous and people should be more considerate of how they are harming their selves. An overdose on drugs is nothing no one should play with, because it can and will lead to death.
