Police: Last remaining BBQ rib prompts fork fight
MUNCIE, Ind. (AP) — Police say an Indiana woman stabbed another woman in the eye with a fork in a dispute over the last rib at a barbecue.
The Star Press reports a 45-year-old woman was arrested Sunday night on a preliminary charge of criminal recklessness.
An affidavit says the woman was attending a barbecue in Muncie when she raised the ire of the host’s daughter by “taking the last rib from the kitchen.”
The affidavit says the woman told police that the daughter accused her of “taking all the food,” so she stabbed her in the eye.
Police say the woman maintains she acted in self-defense and that the homeowner’s daughter was brandishing a knife.
The woman was in the Delaware County jail on $5,000 bond as of Tuesday.

"Rabbi, our son is a holy terror. He's been thrown out of six schools already, and he's only in fifth grade!"
"Send him to Catholic school."
"What?! Are you sure?"
"Yes."
A week later:
"Good afternoon, Mom. How are you, Dad?"
"Fine, son. How was school?"
"Great. I'm going to do my homework now. Please help me get to school on time tomorrow. Oh, and can I have an apple for the teacher?"
"Son, I'm proud of you. Seems like that new school is really straightening you out."
"Yeah well, they mean business, Dad. They've got a Jew nailed to a cross in every room!"

Nazarene: A “Mark of Shame” Becomes a “Mark of Hope”
IT IS BOTH A SIGN OF FAITH AND A POLITICAL STATEMENT
Earlier this summer Mosul, Iraq – a city American soldiers liberated at great cost in blood and treasure – fell to the radical jihadists of ISIS, terrorists so extreme that even al Qaeda disaffiliated itself from their barbarism. And when Mosul fell, the jihadists did what jihadists do: implemented Shariah law and began ruthlessly persecuting Christians.
Their message to Mosul’s Christians was the ancient message of Islam to unbelievers: convert, pay a fine, or die.
To identify Christian homes and businesses, the jihadists marked them with a unique symbol of persecution. National Review’s Christine Sisto has the details:The Islamic State, formerly known as ISIS, had marked homes and businesses owned by Christians with a red, painted ن (pronounced “noon”), the 14th letter of the Arabic alphabet and the equivalent to the Roman letter N. The ن stands for Nasara or Nazarenes, a pejorative Arabic word for Christians.
The markings looked like this:
But what the jihadists intended for evil, the Body of Christ has reclaimed for good. Again, here’s Christine Sisto:
The hashtag #WeAreN is also trending, along with pictures of people of all religions drawing the ن in red ink on their bodies. I’m not a person who believes much in “hashtag advocacy” or that things like social media profile pictures are of much consequence, but this story touched me. So I did this:The ن is now being shared on social media as a symbol of solidarity with the Iraqi Christians forced to flee their homes. The Catholic blog Rorate Caeli wrote, the Islamists “mean it as a mark of shame, we must then wear it as a mark of hope. . . . You may kill our brethren and expel them but we Christians will never go away.”

'Father' To Marry 'Son' In Bucks County (PA) -- With Court's Blessing
Patch.com ^
This week, Bill Novak and Norman MacArthur will go from being father and son to a married couple.
Before you jump to conclusions, consider this: Novak and MacArthur are not father and son biologically. Rather, their relationship through adoption was solely a technicality to enable the rights they desperately wanted but were not legally able to attain as a married couple.
The same-sex couple, who have been together for more than 50 years, registered as domestic partners in New York City in 1994. After moving to Bucks County, they learned that Pennsylvania law does not recognize domestic partners and prohibits same sex marriages.
“The time came about to do estate planning,” MacArthur said. “We were told at that time ‘hell would freeze over before Pennsylvania approves same sex marriage’.”
They were advised by a lawyer that the only avenue to becoming legally related was through adoption. “It was the only legal method we could use in Pennsylvania to give underpinning to our relationship,” MacArthur said.
So in 2000, Novak adopted MacArthur. Both sets of their parents were already deceased, preventing another legal hurdle.
But still they dreamed of being married.
That dream was on the cusp of becoming a reality 15 years later, when the United States District Court declared unconstitutional Pennsylvania’s Marriage Laws prohibiting same-sex marriage.
But Novak and MacArthur, now in their 70s, faced another challenge: they were, in the eyes of Pennsylvania, father and son.
The pair’s Petition to Vacate Adoption Decree was granted on May 14, allowing them to marry. This is the first case in Pennsylvania history seeking to vacate an adoption to allow a same sex couple to marry, their lawyer Terry Clemons said.
Clemons said the approach of using adoption to gain rights was not uncommon around the turn of the century as same-sex couples were navigating estate planning and access to medical care.
Clemons, a founding partner of Doylestown-based Clemons, Richter & Reiss, P.C., successfully petitioned the Orphans Court of Bucks County on behalf of the couple. He said when the order was signed from the bench, the couple’s friends and family erupted in applause.
After years of having to hide behind a phony title in order to gain rights, Novak and MacArthur say they are overjoyed to be able to marry.
“We are ecstatic beyond belief. I feel an enormous sense of not only relief but freedom that we can finally do something in Pennsylvania that I’ve been dreaming of for years.”
And they’re wasting no time: the day after the Petition to Vacate Adoption Decree was approved, they applied for a marriage license, which MacArthur said was granted in 15 minutes.
As of Wednesday, MacArthur said the exact date the couple will make it official hasn’t been set but it will be soon. He said they’ll be married at the courthouse but will celebrate with family and friends at a reception later this summer.
The judge’s order will not only change MacArthur and Novak’s life, but will have an impact on many other same-sex couples in Pennsylvania, according to Clemons.
“Not only does it pave the way for this couple to obtain a marriage license, it is an important precedent for others who may be in the same position,” Clemons, Richter & Reiss said in a statement.

Battle over Boy's Circumcision Enters Federal Court
NBC Miami ^
The case of a Florida woman who fled to avoid her son's circumcision is entering a federal courtroom for the first time.
Thirty-one-year-old Heather Hironimus was arrested Thursday in the long-running dispute over the removal of her 4-year-old child's foreskin. She went missing with the boy nearly three months ago and ignored a judge's warnings that if she didn't appear in court and give consent for the circumcision to proceed, she faced jail.
The case originated in state courts but will be heard in a federal courtroom Monday in West Palm Beach. An attorney for Hironimus filed a federal civil rights complaint as legal options faded.
A judge is due to hear a motion asking for a restraining order against the boy's father to keep the surgery from happening.

^^^^ Funny one worms......
The last line is the bottom line though: Here's some truth for ya. You see, there's that pesky little Y chromosome. One hundred years from now if they dig up Bruce Jenner they will find, besides a pair of silicon implants and a few bones, someone whose DNA unequivocally shouts out that this human being was and is, for all time, (horror of horrors) a white male!

I Am Woman Hear Me Whore
May 16, 2015 I Am Woman Hear Me Whore By Mallory Millett One of our current morons masquerading as a sage last week said of Bruce Jenner, "If he says he's a woman, then she's a woman." So, if I say I'm a cantaloupe, then I'm a cantaloupe?
One of my favorite quotations is: "Insanity is the pursuit of delusion at all costs while sanity is the pursuit of reality at all costs." If we take a deep look at the world around us we will see the truth of this statement.
For instance, let's take Bruce Jenner and his current falderal: thinking he is becoming a woman. This is a man who was quite a man. In his youth he captured our attention by winning Gold in the most difficult division of the Olympics, the Decathlon. By attaining this impossible goal and beating out all the other men in the world he had every expectation of dining off that for the rest of his life, basking in the fame, adulation, money which comes with such attainment. He was of enviable stuff.
But the future held something unimaginable. His stepdaughter, who possesses a backside so out of proportion as to be a tad freakish, decided to adopt the motto of our time…"flaunt it"..."brazen it out." Make it an asset (pun intended). In fact, go to the outer limits of flaunting it.
So, Kim made a film of herself having sexual intercourse with a big stud and put it out for public consumption the way her best pal, the Hilton gal, had made her own desperate grasp at fame. The feminists announced it's a good thing to be a rebel, an outlaw. Be a damned outlaw!

An Iowa judge has dismissed a 112-member jury pool after determining that a black man charged with murder couldn't get a fair trial when all but one potential juror is white.
Tyrone Washington Jr., 41, of Northwood is accused in the August 2013 stabbing death of his ex-girlfriend, 30-year-old Justina Smith, the Globe Gazette reported.
Defense attorney Charles Kenville requested to have the entire jury pool stricken, and District Judge Colleen Weiland on Tuesday granted his motion.
Out of the 112 people in the jury pool, 111 had identified themselves as white. One juror identified himself as Native American.
Kenville said the lack of racial diversity wasn't intentional but that 'the system is broken in Webster County and this court needs to fix it for Mr. Washington's rights to be upheld.'

NEW ORLEANS, LA (WVUE) - Members of the New Orleans city council approved plans Thursday for a National Slave Ship Museum.
If the proposal wins final approval, the museum will be located at the Celeste Street Wharf in the Lower Garden District.
Supporters say the museum will enhance and perpetuate New Orleans' status as a major cultural hub and destination by recreating the saga of the African Diaspora story of slave trade in the United States along the Mississippi River, via the Port of New Orleans.
The proposed $170 million museum will include a life-size interactive slave ship built inside a new five-story building and a riverfront park with an amphitheater and two replica African villages.
