Rare white Christmas graces Texas panhandle

NewsonToday — Tue, 27 Dec 2011 16:20:27 +0000

AUSTIN, Texas (Reuters) – A light dusting of snow in north Texas delivered a rare white Christmas to this drought-stricken state, but the majority of the nation was seeing mild weather on Sunday. Snow showers glazed parts of the Northeast as well, with snowy road conditions cited as a factor in a two-vehicle traffic collision that left four men dead in the town of Palermo, Maine, on Sunday. But weather forecasters said 99 percent of Americans would see more green and brown for their Yuletide celebrations — along with plenty of rain, according to Accuweather.com. …

Christmas won’t be white in much of United States

NewsonToday — Fri, 23 Dec 2011 22:24:10 +0000

(Reuters) – Snowstorms snarled “Getaway Friday” plans for some holiday travelers, shutting roads in New Mexico and New Hampshire, and colder temperatures ahead renewed hopes for a white Christmas in parts of the Southwest and Northeast. Much of the rest of the country was expected to celebrate a sunny but brown Christmas, forecasters said. In Georgia, where powerful storms ripped across the northern part of the state on Thursday, 4,100 customers — most of them in Rome, Georgia — were still without power on Friday, according to Georgia Power. …

Penn State Scandal — Coaches Ask Players to Wear White to Support Joe Paterno

NewsonToday — Fri, 11 Nov 2011 00:14:32 +0000

Filed under: Joe Paterno, TMZ Sports

Multiple sources connected with the Penn State football team tell TMZ … coaches held a meeting with players today and told them their friends and family should show support for ousted coach Joe Paterno by wearing white to the game on Saturday.

It’s a bold move, considering there is a university-wide move for people in the stands to wear baby blue to support the alleged sexual assault victims of Jerry Sandusky.

In addition to wearing white, we’re told the coaches informed the team they may change the time and location of the pre-game meal because of security concerns.

And, we’re told, the coaches assured the players there would be “enhanced security” for the game.

‘Dog’ Chapman — ‘Come On White Boy!!!!!’

NewsonToday — Wed, 13 Jul 2011 08:14:43 +0000

Filed under: Dog Chapman, Celebrity Justice, TV

A racial confrontation erupted between Dog the Bounty Hunter and a bar owner in Colorado last week … with Dog screaming, “Come on white boy, come on motherf**ker” … after the other guy allegedly called Dog a “half-breed” … and TMZ has the footage.

It all went down on Thursday at La Montana Linda Restaurant in Breckenridge, Colorado — when Dog’s team stormed into the place looking for the owner’s father … who allegedly jumped bail on breaking and entering charges. Dog was on the hunt for the guy as part of his reality show.

In the video, Dog’s team can be seen marching through the kitchen after entering through the back door. When confronted by a camera-wielding patron, one of the Dog’s team members says, “I’m not a superstar … I can f*ck you up and not get charged.”

At that moment, another member of Dog’s team throws a closed-fist punch at the patron’s face … sending his camera crashing to the ground. We’re told a brawl broke out and another patron was punched in the eye. Check out the injuries below.

The restaurant owner then goes outside to confront Dog face to face … screaming at the reality star to get off the property … and that’s when things get CRAZY.

Dog loses his cool and lashes out — screaming, “Come on white boy … come on white boy … come on white boy … come on mother f**ker!!!”

The owner then throws a plant at Dog — which pissed off Dog’s right hand man … who lunged at the owner … tearing off the guy’s shirt in the process.

That’s when Dog whipped out his stun gun — and made sure everyone knew he meant business. Dog eventually left without having to shock anyone.

Sources close to Dog tell TMZ … Dog considered his target a “very dangerous guy” … and notes that tensions were high that day. We’re also told Dog claims the owner made the FIRST racial taunt, referring to the reality star as a “half-breed.”

We’re told Dog also felt his team was “rushed” when they entered the restaurant … to create a diversion so the suspect could flee out of another exit. We’re told Dog is claiming one of his men was sprayed in the face with cleaning fluid … and that’s what ignited the altercation.

The suspect is still on the run.

CAPITAL CULTURE: Women have own White House ‘club’ (AP)

NewsonToday — Wed, 24 Mar 2010 23:33:34 +0000

AP – Late last year, President Barack Obama summoned the highest-ranking women on his staff to a dinner at the White House so he could ask them a question: Should he be worried about a nagging perception that his administration was a testosterone-fueled boys club?
