Missing California teen Hannah Anderson has been found safe in Idaho, while her suspected abductor James Lee DiMaggio has been killed, San Diego County Sheriff’s officials say.
San Diego Sheriff William D. Gore said San Diego sheriff’s authorities have notified the teen’s father that she was rescued. “He was very relieved and very excited and looking forward to being reunited with his daughter,” Gore said.
Speaking by phone on Fox News’ “Justice with Judge Jeanine” Saturday night, Brett Anderson further articulated his emotions, saying “I’m ecstatic that my daughter and I will soon be reunited. I’m saddened by what happened to my wife and son, and I’m worried about what my daughter has been put through.”
DiMaggio, 40, was killed by FBI tactical agents at the north end of Morehead Lake after a campsite was spotted from the air and an FBI hostage recovery team was sent to the site, according to Gore. According to Fox40.com, DiMaggio was killed around 7:15 p.m. ET on Saturday.
Every time my birthday rolls around it seems like it was just yesterday I was a year younger; time really does seem to fly. Though going from 18 to 19, it seemed like a lifetime.
It’s amazing that a year ago I was enjoying my summer with my girlfriend of three years. My memory is a little foggy but I’m pretty sure I spent the afternoon with her, as was the norm with me and her. We exchanged gifts, considering our anniversary landed on the same day; I got her a key necklace with a heart as it’s main part, she also got me a necklace in the shape of a heart with our names inscribed in it. I’m not sure where that necklace went to..
I entered college that September at William Paterson University. Man oh man that was quite an experience. In a period of four months I watched my relationship crumble, learned that college isn’t easy, and that it’s a dog eat dog world. I left in late November, partly due to the fact I just wasn’t ready to be in college and because they locked my account since I apparently wasn’t a “legal” US citizen (don’t mind my SSN, bank account, drivers license, etc).
My parents were supportive of me leaving WPU, my dad was too caught up arguing with the school over their actions, but I felt alone in my world. I didn’t want to be the kid sitting around doing nothing with his life but also didn’t want to instantly jump into college again. So, I did what any sensible 18 year old would do, I became a certified bartender.
Being a bartender seemed like a cool idea, of course from a business perspective, paying an 18 year old to handle alcohol is a “no-no”. With that plan failing I just started looking around for whatever was out there. The job hunt had it’s many lows but, every now and then it provided me with a job and timeless memories.
I knew though that I couldn’t survive working as a promoter for clubs or working part time in a retail store. I took a deep deep breath and registered back up to go to college. Brace yourself Bergen County College, I’m coming for you!
One year, 12 months, 52 weeks, 365 days, has felt like a lifetime to me. My world has flipped upside down more than once and has undergone a change in every way. I’ve changed my friends, my style, my attitude, my view on life, and much much more. The 18 year old teen who walked cautiously into college a year ago has been replaced by a 19 year old who feels like he’s ready to take on the world.
President Obama spoke to a group of disabled veterans today in Orlando Florida, telling them about initiatives the Federal government is taking to make their lives better. All in all, it was an impressive speech, receiving many applause from those in attendance. But it was an update the President gave at the end of his speech that caused many on Twitter to declare this speech “one of his best.”
Cory Remsburg and Family
The President spoke about Cory Remsbury, an Army Ranger who almost died in an attack. President Obama spoke about how he visited Cory in the hospital over three years ago and compared that visit to seeing Cory and his family recently. The special message the President so masterfully brought home from the Cory story is that “we never give up!”
We’re sure there were some tears flowing after his story.
If a billionaire like Oprah Winfrey cannot escape those who judge her based on the color of her skin, people we affectionately call racists, what chance do you have if you’re just a member of the common folk group?
Oprah Winfrey must not be a household name in Switzerland because a store clerk at an expensive Zurich boutique didn’t know that American media mogul was a billionaire.
During a recent trip to northern Switzerland for Tina Turner’s wedding, Oprah said a saleswoman at Trois Pommes refused to show her a $38,000 handbag because it was “too expensive.”
“She said: `No, no, no, you don’t want to see that one. You want to see this one. Because that one will cost too much; you will not be able to afford that,’” Winfrey said in an interview with “Entertainment Tonight.” “And I said, `Well, I did really want to see that one.’ And she refused to get it.”
“I didn’t have my eyelashes on, but I was in full Oprah Winfrey gear. I had my little Donna Karan skirt and my little sandals. But obviously ‘The Oprah Winfrey Show’ is not shown in Zurich,” she added
She went on to say the sales assistant suggested she look at cheaper bags.
“There’s two different ways to handle it. I could’ve had the whole blow-up thing,” she said, but “I left the store but it proves that racism is still an issue.”
Just hours after “Entertainment Tonight” aired the interview, Swiss tourism officials and boutique owner Trudie Goetz offered their apologies to Ms. Winfrey.
“We are very sorry for what happened to her, of course, because we think all of our guests and clients should be treated respectfully, in a professional way,” said Swiss tourism spokeswoman Daniela Baer.
Goetz insisted that the whole incident was a misunderstanding.
“I’m very sorry about this incident,” she said during a radio interview. “This can only happen because of a communication problem and a misunderstanding.”
“The shop assistant apparently asked her (Oprah) if she would like to see the bag, but she apparently said `No, I just want to look’. And then she (Oprah) asked how much the bag costs and she (the employee) told her how much the bag was,” she explained. “I believe she rather said something like `we have some less expensive’ – `we also have some less expensive bags’ and not `it’s too expensive for you.’”
At a White House news conference on Friday, Obama insisted that he does not have bad personal relations with Putin. The two men had a testy meeting in June in Northern Ireland and from the photos of them at the time, it looked as if they would both rather have been somewhere else.
“I know the press likes to focus on body language, and he’s got that kind of slouch, looking like the bored kid in the back of the classroom. But the truth is that when we’re in conversations together, oftentimes it’s very productive,” Obama said.
Putin’s sending of a telegram wishing former President George W. Bush well after a heart procedure this week was viewed by some Kremlin watchers as a sign that Putin was sending an implicit message to Obama.
The White House says Obama pulled out of the Moscow summit not just because of the Russian decision to grant asylum to Snowden, who is wanted in the United States to face espionage charges.
U.S. differences with Russia have piled up recently over Moscow’s support for the Syrian government in that country’s civil war, as well as human rights concerns and other grievances.
There was no immediate response from Moscow to Obama’s description of the Russian president.
Branford Fire Chief Jack Ahern confirmed that news Friday afternoon.
The three were killed when a plane plowed into two homes at 11:22 a.m. on Friday on Charter Oak Avenue in East Haven, just north of Tweed New Haven Airport.
A Seattle TV station is reporting that the pilot was Bill Henningsgaard, a former vice president of Microsoft, and that he was flying the plane with his son.
Up to five people may have been killed in the crash. At a press briefing earlier Friday afternoon, Gov. Dannel Malloy said the pilot of the plane may have had up to two passengers with him, according to airport authorities.
Malloy said two bodies had been found in the basement of a house struck by the plane.
Officials said earlier that two children, ages 1 and 13, were believed to be in one of two homes struck. Chief Ahern said both of those children died in the crash. Click the play arrow to see the houses, in a video shot by the Branford Eagle’s Mary Johnson.
I’m not really sure where to even start with this heartbreaking story. A 10-year-old Houston, Texas girl was arrested and charged with raping a 4-year-old boy, KHOU 11 reports.
While the details surrounding the incident are scarce, what we do know is that the alleged incident is said to have occurred in the courtyard of the girl’s apartment complex.
“She was just being a child, having fun and playing. She didn’t know she was doing any wrong,” the girl’s mother told KHOU.
The incident was first reported back in April, which is when a sex crimes investigator was assigned to the case. The child was arrested last week and taken to a juvenile detention center, where she was held for four days.

Florida man shoots neighbor in the face; calls 911 then goes back to cooking dinner; on arrest, tells police he only shot a ‘n**ger’
In yet another racially charged shooting in the Sunshine State, a man reportedly shot his neighbor point-blank in the face last July and then went back to cooking his dinner.
Not only did 59-year-old Walton Henry Butler shoot 32-year-old Everett Gant but he called 911 to report it. He also became aggravated when they arrested him because as he told them, he only shot a “nigger.”
Gulf County Sheriff Joe Nugent Police said the suspect acted as if shooting the victim was “no big deal” and they were inconveniencing him with the arrest and interrogation.
According to the Daily News and NY Times, the state ethics commission is investigating complaints that were kept secret. As the Times puts it, “The records related to the Kellner allegations were not turned over to the state’s Joint Commission on Public Ethics, even though the commission issued a broad subpoena for documents related to sexual harassment allegations as part of an investigation into harassment claims made against a former assemblyman, Vito J. Lopez, that concluded earlier this year.”
Lopez allegedly groped female staffers and made them touch his tumors; Lopez wasn’t charged with anything but resigned from the Assembly…so he could run for NY City Council, ugh.
Kellner’s former chief of staffer Eliyanna Kaiser had brought allegations of Kellner’s harassment toward an aide to Silver’s office, only to be ignored. Now State of Politics reports
“According to people familiar with the situation, Kellner made repeated inappropriate sexual advances and comments to a male employee. According to one person who asked to remain anonymous:
‘Micah would comment about his appearance and his sex life all the time. It was creepy. One time Micah leaned onto his shoulders and told him he had pretty hands-and he just froze. It escalated to the point where he actually got up the nerve to confront Micah. And after that, things did not get better. Micah took him off projects, diminished his role in the office, and when everyone else got a raise a few weeks later, his salary stayed the same. No one was surprised when he quit.'”
Kellner, a Manhattan Democrat, is married to a woman, but is openly bisexual. He told the News, “There should have been an investigation four years ago. There should be an investigation now, and I’m going to cooperate with any investigation.”
MSNBC’s Chuck Todd must have really crawled under the Trump’s tulip. On Friday, Trump stayed behind the safety of his computer screen and unleashed a barrage of hate filled tweets against Mr. Todd.
The maturity level is amazing low. And to think Republicans actually considered voting for him to be their presidential nominee in 2012.
Members of the U.S. military are pissed Anthony Weiner’s sexting partner involved the American flag in her masturbation porn — and TMZ has learned, the XXX king behind the video is so sorry … he’s editing the flag out of the tape entirely.
Sources close to Vivid honcho Steve Hirsch tell TMZ, Hirsch recently received a call from an active serviceman in Florida, complaining about Sydney Leathers’ upcoming porn, in which she masturbates on top of the red, white, and blue.
We’re told the man was NOT upset about the masturbation part — he’s a big Vivid fan after all — but the American flag’s involvement crossed the line, and he was going to have the DVD banned from his base.
We’re told Hirsch profusely apologized to the man for offending anyone in the U.S. military — a major porn consumer for obvious reasons — and agreed to remove the American flag from Vivid’s website as well as from Sydney’s DVD.
And that seemed to do the trick — we’re told the man accepted Hirsch’s apology, moved on with his porn-filled existence, and lived happily ever after. The end
