Man Kicked Out of Saudi Arabia for Being ‘Too Handsome

Omar Borkan Al Gala, as you'll see in the photos below, is just too damn handsome. The man from the United Arab Emirates was visiting Saudi Arabia for a festival. But he and two of his colleagues were asked to leave for fear they would corrupt the country's women. The Commission for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vices thought he was too hot for the ladies to handle. Which he is. I mean, imagine what could happen!

Women would wake up to the handsome possibilities and start nagging their own husbands. "Why can't you trim your beard like (SIGH) Omaaaaar does?" "Couldn't you grow your hair out just a little bit like (hand over heart) Omaaaaaar does?" "It's hard to tell from his clothing, but it appears Omar (mmmm) performs some sort of regular exercise to keep his figure so trim. I like that!" There would be no end to it! Men would start feeling bad about themselves. We can't have that.

And with Omar's handsome visage burned into these women's memory, what's to stop them fromthinking about him all day, every day, in various states of undress? Nothing! Nothing at all. So if you're trying to curtail the lustful thoughts of an entire population, it's clear that you cannot allow a man like Omar Borkan Al Gala into your country.

Obviously you'd like to see what this man looks like, yes? Here you go. Enjoy your impure thoughts. I'll get you started. He's driving while you caress his arm and inhale the warm scent from his collar. He pulls over. It's a country road and there's nobody around ... Omar, I think I speak for all of us when I say: YOU ARE WELCOME TO VISIT OUR COUNTRY ANY TIME.

Romanian player sold for a chunk of meat

A new transfer record was set in Romania back in 2010 - for the most expensive footballer sold in return for pork.
Defender Marius Cioara was sold to Regal Hornia for 15kg of sausages. He retired a day later after 24 hours of taunts. Regal Hornia demanded a refund, and Cioara went to work on a farm.

Man on the Run from cops for nothing for 20 years

Bennie Wint was convinced that the cops were after him for drug-related charges when he faked his death in 1989. So convinced, that he staged his drowning death in Daytona Beach, Fla., leaving his fiancé and then-four-year-old daughter completely oblivious to his plan and, ultimately, heartbroken. He then took off to Alabama (is that really the best you could do, Bennie? Alabama?) and began a new life under the name of William Sweet. He married another woman and had a son, and spent his days running a flea market stall in North Carolina (better).

About 20 years later, he was pulled over by the cops in the good ol' state of NC for a blown-out light bulb on his car. When he gave his fake name, nothing came up on the computers, so Bennie was forced to give his real name and tell his whole story—only to find out that he was never wanted for anything. That's right, Bennie threw his whole life away for absolutely no reason whatsoever.

And this, kids, is why you shouldn't do drugs.

Newscaster commits suicide Live on Air

On the morning of July 15, 1974, Christine Chubbuck confused co-workers by claiming that she had to read a newscast to open her program, Suncoast Digest, something she had never done before. That morning’s talk show guest waited across the studio while she sat at the news anchor’s desk.

Her news copy actually contained a speculative report of her impending suicide, wherein she conjectured she would be declared dead eleven hours later. She placed a .38 revolver in her bag of puppets and put it beneath her desk. During the first eight minutes of her program, Chubbuck covered three national news stories and then a local restaurant shooting from the day before. The restaurant was the Beef and Bottle Restaurant at the Sarasota-Bradenton Airport on U.S. 41.

The film reel of the restaurant shooting had jammed and wouldn’t run, so Christine shrugged it off and said:“In keeping with Channel 40′s policy of bringing you the latest in blood and guts, and in living color, you are going to see another first: an attempted suicide.” She drew out the revolver and shot herself behind her right ear. Christine fell forward violently and the technical director faded slowly to black.

Camerawoman Jean Reed later recalled that she thought it had been an elaborate prank, and it wasn’t until she saw Chubbuck’s twitching body that she realized it was genuine.The station quickly ran a standard Public Service tape, and then a movie. Some television viewers had phoned 9-1-1, while others phoned the station to inquire if the shooting was faked.

Chubbuck was taken to Sarasota Memorial Hospital and was pronounced dead 14 hours later. Upon receiving the news, a WXLT staffer released the information to other stations using Chubbuck’s copy, as she left it for just that purpose.

TV reporter curses on air on the 1st day of work and gets fired

A TV news anchor for a North Dakota station started his first ever on air broadcast cursing, according to a report on April 23 by ABC News.

A.J. Clemente was being introduced by co-anchor Van Tieu when he swore audibly during the 5 p.m. edition of the KFYR-TV news in Bismarck. He then stumbled through an introduction while trying to recover from his flub.

Because of his first words on air being curse words, he was first suspended and later fired. He was a weekend news anchorman for a North Dakota TV station and was fired on Monday.

A SCHOOLBOY aged eight ties the knot — with a woman aged 61.

Little Sanele Masilela got hitched in front of 100 guests to
mum-of-five Helen Shabangu, who already has a husband.

The couple swapped rings and kissed in the ceremony in
Tshwane, South Africa, which Sanele claimed his dead
ancestors ordered him to arrange.


But he and his bride did not sign a marriage certificate and
do not live together.
His family, who forked out £1,500 on the wedding, insisted
it was only a ritual and was not legally binding.
Sanele said: “I told my mother I wanted to get married as I
really did want to.
“I’m happy that I married Helen. When I’m older I will
marry a lady my own age.”


The boy’s 46-year-old mum Patience said: “Sanele’s
grandfather asked him to get married before he died. He
chose Helen because he loves her.
“By doing this we made the ancestors happy. If we hadn’t,
something bad would have happened in the family.”
Helen said: “It is what the ancestors wanted.”

Award for "Worst" rather than "Best"

Everyone knows about the apex of movie awards which every actor/actress on the planet will give anything and everything to have in their collection, “Academy Awards” a.k.a. ‘The Oscars’, but a very few people know about an award that gives the “Worst” instead of the “Best” that’s usually given.

Interestingly, this award known as “Golden Raspberry Award” a.k.a. ‘Razzie’ has a massive publicity of its own and the ceremony is typically held one day before the Academy Awards (its model). Most winners do not attend the ceremony.

The first Golden Raspberry Awards ceremony was held on March 31, 1981, at John J. B. Wilson's (founder) living room alcove in Los Angeles to honour the worst in film of the 1980 film season, and the latest, the 33rd ceremony was held on February 23, 2013. Its categories includes; Worst Actor, Worst Actress, Worst Supporting Actor, Worst Supporting Actress, Worst Screen Couple/Worst Screen Ensemble, Worst Screenplay, Worst Director, Worst Picture, Worst Prequel, Remake, Rip-off or Sequel.

The awards themselves are enough joke of their own. They typically cost $4.97 each, in the form of a "golfball-sized raspberry" which sits atop a Super 8 mm film reel, the whole of which is spray-painted gold.



The amazing thing is that top Hollywood actors/actresses actually acknowledge this award either satirically or otherwise, e.g. Bill Cosby, Ben Affleck etc.; and some have even attended the ceremony in person to actually accept their award and also give an acceptance speech. Examples include; Halle Berry, Sandra Bullock etc.

Bill Cosby became the first recipient to claim an award in 1988. His trophy was worth $1.97. He accepted to receive the award, on the condition that it must be real gold. Arrangements were made to present Cosby with his awards which was remodeled and made out of 24-carat gold and Italian marble, which cost almost $30,000.

In 2004, after winning the ‘Worst actor’, Ben Affleck joked on the radio, complaining he was "stiffed" because he had not been given his Worst Actor trophy. He was presented with his trophy in an appearance on Larry King Live. He commented, "It's a little cheap," and proceeded to pull the trophy apart while on the television program.



Ironically, Halle Berry went on stage to accept her award for ‘Worst actress’ in 2005 for her role in Catwoman holding her Academy Award for her performance in Monster's Ball in one hand and her Golden Raspberry Award trophy in the other. She parodied her performance when she accepted her Academy Award.



After her Worst Actress nomination for All About Steve in 2010, Sandra Bullock expressed interest in coming up to pick up her award. She brought DVD copies of the movie to the audience, declaring that the voters should watch the movie to see if she was really the worst performer, implying the Razzie voters cast ballots for her just to see if she appeared at the ceremony. The following night, she won an Academy Award for Best Actress for her performance in The Blind Side.

Baby Girl Dies as Doctors Fight Over Delivery

A baby girl died while doctors fought over who should deliver her.

A newborn girl died after two doctors fought over who was going to deliver her while the mother was in labor, it has emerged.

The young mother begged the doctors to stop fighting and help her, she told a Brazilian television station.

But her pleas appear to have fallen on deaf ears. Her baby daughter suffocated to death, witnesses have said.

The two doctors were fired by the public hospital in the small city of Ivinhema near the border with Paraguay.

Brazilian authorities have launched an investigation over whether the delivery room fight caused the death or contributed to it.

Brazil’s Globo TV said witnesses reported one doctor got angry early Tuesday morning because the other doctor was summoned to deliver the baby for 32-year-old Gislaine de Matos Rodrigues even though he was not scheduled to be on duty.

Rodrigues, a seamstress, said she was terrified when the fight broke out.

‘I asked them to stop fighting and help me,’ she told Globo TV. ‘One of the nurses came to protect me and console me.’

A third doctor took over the delivery after hospital security guards removed the fighting doctors, Rodrigues said.

She said her baby girl was dead upon delivery.

Witnesses said the baby died of asphyxiation following complications, Globo TV reported.

One of the doctors admitted to Globo TV there was a fight in the delivery room, but blamed his colleague.

‘I didn’t get in a fight with him,’ said Dr. Sinomar Ricardo. ‘He got into a fight with me.’

The network said it was unable to interview the second doctor.

Police said they will investigate, and the regional body that oversees doctors in the state of Mato Grosso do Sul also launched a probe.

The two doctors were given 10 days to report their versions of what happened in the hospital’s delivery room.

The autopsy report on the baby’s death is expected to be released next week.
