Someone is actually playing a video game (Madden) on the Godzillatron, how awesome is that?

In an effort to learn more about mayoral candidate Kenneth Whalum, Yas Meen and Monique Stevens visited the reverend’s New Olivet Baptist Church Sunday morning. But they claim the experience resulted verbal attacks and expulsion from the church.
“I had been having political debates with my partner about who to vote for for mayor. I said Whalum was the man to vote for, and she was going for Herenton,” Meen says. “We decided to go to [Whalum’s] church to see what he was all about.”
Meen says many in the congregation were giving them dirty looks as soon as they sat down. But she says the real trouble started when the women — who are both agnostic — opted out of a “sanctified dance” that supposedly involved congregants dancing in the aisles, laying on the floor to pray, and blowing kisses to God.
Richmond High School suspended about 50 more students Thursday while about 150 people marched, chanted and honked horns in front of the building in protest of Richmond Community Schools’ revised dress code.
Authorities from the Richmond Police Department and Wayne County Sheriff’s Department patrolled Hub Etchison Parkway as the people protested for about four hours, sometimes restricting traffic in and out of the campus. Intermittent rain did little to quell or quiet the crowd.
“This dress code is so extreme,” said parent Brian Thompson. “The dress code doesn’t say anything about students in violation if you can see their collarbone, but students are being suspended because of it.
“It’s just way over the top,” he said.
The school board approved revisions to the dress code in May, which prohibit students from wearing clothes with any distinguishing marks on them, including logos, stripes, plaid or floral prints. Low-cut tops and excessively tight and baggy clothing is also among the dress code’s no-nos.
But despite the protests and the suspensions — 169 were suspended at RHS on Wednesday — school went on as usual, Superintendent Allen Bourff said.
TUCSON, AZ (KOLD) – Two conjoined Diamondback Rattlesnakes were found about a week ago at a construction site near Tucson.
The person who found them contacted staff at the Desert Museum to save the seemingly ill-fated creatures, who were dehydrated.
Experts at the museum say these conjoined snakes are connected at the neck with soft tissue. They both have full bodies and two seperate heads.
They cautioned this particular gentic mishap cannot be classified as a two-headed snake because they don’t share bodies.
Specialized veterinarians plan to surgically seperate the two this Thursday at the Desert Museum.
