She's changed her story a little bit depending on who she's crying for attention to.   Some interviews she says the toy had a "wanger" and other times she's saying there's no "weiner" but that's not the point.

That's a deep subject. 

Sounds like George Eade made an appearance on the CM set.

Hmmm his character is boring and really doesn't add much to the story....... but when the cast continually changes over it kind of signals the end...

 

My dad works there. Nobody injured. Was a bag apparently on fire on the sidewalk . But then exploded.

Huma Abedin, the wife of the former Representative Anthony D. Weiner, announced on Monday that the couple were separating in the wake of a report that Mr. Weiner had been involved in another sexting scandal.

Mr. Weiner, who resigned in 2011 after it was revealed he had been sending lewd messages and photos to random women online, apparently deleted his Twitter account on Monday after The New York Post reported that he had exchanged sexual messages with an unidentified woman last year.

The initial scandal destroyed his political career and strained his marriage to Ms. Abedin, a top aide to Hillary Clinton.

On Monday, Ms. Abedin said in a statement: “After long and painful consideration and work on my marriage, I have made the decision to separate from my husband. Anthony and I remain devoted to doing what is best for our son, who is the light of our life. During this difficult time, I ask for respect for our privacy.”

***What is with this guy.  He has a beautiful, talented, rising superstar wife who makes all the money and will have a seat at the right hand of the next President and he just cant help himself.  His only hope to salvage his political career was to ride her coat tails after the election.  He's sunk.  But I guess she's going to have to pay him alimony.

Anyone attend a kid's party recently where Magic Dan performed? Apparently he's been to a number of daycares recently...

Child Abuse Imagery Arrest - R16-62494

On August 24, 2016, the Winnipeg Police Service Internet Child Exploitation Unit (ICE), with the assistance of the Child Abuse Unit, the Tactical Support Team and Investigators from East District General Patrol, arrested a suspect in a child pornography investigation.

Daniel KAMENICKY, 39 years, of Winnipeg, was charged with the following offences:

Make Child Pornography
Possess Child Pornography
Distribute Child Pornography
Voyeurism

Kamenicky was detained in custody.

The Winnipeg Police Service was alerted by the National Centre for Missing and Exploited Children that between June 13, 2016 and August 11, 2016, local IP addresses were being utilized to upload images and videos of child pornography. This information was forwarded to the Winnipeg Police Service I.C.E.(Internet Child Exploitation) Unit at which time an investigation commenced.

Investigators executed a search warrant on August 24, 2016, resulting in the seizure of numerous electronic devices leading to the above noted charges.

The accused works as a children’s entertainer operating a magic show under the name of ‘Magic Dan.’

Police said, "This individual has video-recorded children in ways that we believe are sexual in nature."

Now there's an opening for the defense!

I love this stuff:

(CNN)Astronomers engaged in the search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI) are training their instruments on a star around 94 light years from Earth after a very strong signal was detected by a Russian telescope.

An international team of researchers is now examining the radio signal and its star, HD 164595 -- described in a paper by Italian astronomer Claudio Maccone and others as a "strong candidate for SETI" -- in the hopes of determining its origin.

"The signal from HD 164595 is intriguing, because it comes from the vicinity of a sun-like star, and if it's artificial, its strength is great enough that it was clearly made by a civilization with capabilities beyond those of humankind," astronomer Douglas Vakoch, president of METI International, which searches for life beyond Earth, tells CNN.

 

Whenever a strong signal is detected, "it's a good possibility for some nearby civilization to be detected," Maccone tells CNN.

Turns out it was likely of "terrestrial origin".

The people who own the NHL expansion team in Vegas are building new arena. NFL Raiders look to be moving to Sin City with a new 65,000 seat stadium. The NBA is missing out. They may have missed the market now entirely. The NBA can reclaim Seattle & the NHL & NFL can have Vegas. I know what city I'd rather have for league marketing & publicity purposes.

It's funny. I was just in Vegas and people were talking about the NFL and the new stadium. People told me the new leading location is just south of Mandalay Bay on the strip which is great. But one Uber guy told me they fear for the Raiders Gangs

but anytime hockey came up they didn't seem to know it was a done deal. "Maybe the NHL will come too". Uhhhhh yeah maybe.
