n2doc's JournalSandusky Angry He's Not Going To Be Allowed To Tell The Tender, Romantic Side Of The Story (Onion)
BELLEFONTE, PA—As jurors began deliberations Thursday on charges that he sexually abused 10 boys over a 15-year period, former Penn State coach Jerry Sandusky—who did not testify during his trial—expressed regret over being denied a chance to tell "the sweet, loving, tender, and romantic part of the story" that he felt the jury had a right to hear.
"Everything they're saying happened is just wrong," Sandusky told reporters while awaiting a verdict. "The sordid stories about the locker room shower, the terrible testimony about what happened in my basement… None of these things really expresses the depth and intensity of my feelings as I opened my heart of hearts to these kids."
"I have no idea why [defense attorney] Joe [Amendola] didn't want me to talk about that stuff," Sandusky added. "What we had together, those boys and I, was truly special to me."
Sandusky faces 48 criminal counts in the trial, and the jury heard from eight alleged victims—now ages 18 to 28—who said the coerced sexual contact with the former defensive coach ranged from kissing to fondling to showering together to forced oral and anal sex. Sandusky said he was surprised and disappointed none of the boys mentioned the beautiful, special times he tried to share with them.
"Maybe it was just me, all along," said Sandusky, burying his face in his hands. "Oh, God, it was, wasn't it? I can't believe I let myself fall for the oldest trick in the book. I'm such a fool."

Romney Stares Uncomprehendingly At $1 Bill
JUNE 22, 2012 | ISSUE 48•25
POCATELLO, ID—A $1 bill somehow made its way into the hands of Mitt Romney during a campaign stop Thursday, reportedly causing the Republican presidential candidate a moment of uncomprehending fascination. "What am I looking at here? What is this?" said Romney, squinting at the bill as he turned it over and over in his hands. "It almost looks like money, but it's missing the zeroes. Huh. Do people try to buy things with this?" Romney finally crumpled up the bill and threw it away, chuckling as he told reporters that "whoever thought that one up must be a real wiseacre."

Wife Attacks Husband After Finding Copies of The Onion in Car
Victim tells police his wife considers the papers "pornography" and it has caused issues in their marriage.
By Joe Petrie Email the author June 19, 2012
The Shepherd Express and The Onion are iconic Wisconsin publications well known for their alternative views and humor.
However, when one man's wife found issues of those two papers in his trunk, it incited an incident that could very well be mistaken for a headline in The Onion.
A 56-year-old Menomonee Falls woman is facing charges after she allegedly attacked her husband for having copies of the Shepherd Express and The Onion in the trunk of his car.
Lynne M. Rasbornik was charged in Waukesha County Circuit Court Monday with one count of disorderly conduct domestic abuse. If convicted, she faces up to 90 days in jail and $1,000 in fines.

The Dog Cafe – South Korea’s Answer to Japan’s Popular Cat Cafes
There’s a place in South Korea where you can relax by bonding with about twenty dogs of different breeds and sizes, all vying for human attention. It’s called the Dog Cafe and it’s awesome!
If you haven’t yet heard about Japan’s famous cat cafes, they’re venues where stressed businessmen go to relax by surrounding themselves with dozens of purring felines. Cats are very popular in the Land of the Rising Sun, but the concept has been adopted by other Asian countries and recently, even Austria. But animal lovers in the South Korean city of Busan decided to take a different approach and opened a dog cafe, where visitors can surround themselves with furry canines who love human attention. According to Jürgen and Mike, from for91Days.com, Busan is a busy place, with tiny apartments where owning a dog can be considered a luxury, so a place like the Dog Cafe was just what the city needed.

Savage: Pro-Romney gays are ‘house f*****s’
Seattle-based gay activist and sex columnist Dan Savage has reacted to a Romney endorsement by the group GOProud by hurling a playground-locker room epithet often used to characterize people as gay.
“The GOP’s house faggots grab their ankles on this one,” Savage tweeted after the gay Republican group announced it was supporting the former Massachusetts governor.
Romney campaigned for the U.S. Senate, in 1994, claiming he could do more to advance gay and lesbian civil rights than incumbent Democratic Sen. Edward Kennedy. He has since, however, acted like a pander bear to questionnaire-sending groups from the religious right.
Romney has signed onto a National Organization for Marriage pledge that he will support an amendment to the U.S. Constitution defining marriage as between a man and a woman, vigorously fight legal challenges to the Defense of Marriage Act, and appoint right-thinking federal judges.

Fossils in flagrante delicto: Turtles' sex act frozen in time
Scientists say it's first known case of vertebrates seen copulating in the fossil record

Fossil turtles have been caught having sex, the first known case of animals with backbones found copulating in the fossil record, researchers say.
The mating turtles may have been caught in a death trap as they sank to deeper layers of the lake, where they were having sex nearly 50 million years ago, the researchers speculate. The lake's deep layers may have held deadly volcanic gases or other toxins.
Scientists made their discovery at the Messel Pit in Germany, which once was a deep volcanic crater lake in a wet, tropical environment. The pit was a quarry originally mined for the oil in the shale there, but over the years, it has become the richest site in the world for understanding the living environment of the Eocene, the epoch between 57 million and 36 million years ago when mammals began conquering the planet. Animals there included early horses, reptiles, primates, honeybees, giant ants and countless birds and bats.
