| Mean mum used baby ploy to steal OAP’s cash
A MOTHER stole money from a pensioner after going to his house to change her baby's nappy – even though he had already given her £10 because he felt so sorry for her. Carlisle Crown Court heard yesterday that Emma Green, 22, took about £30 in coins after knocking on the door of the old man's house in Main Street, Hensingham, Whitehaven. Green, who has no fixed address, was remanded on bail to a hostel in Liverpool and will be sentenced on March 16. Judge Paul Batty QC told her that if she did well there, and proved to probation staff that she wanted to go straight, she would not go to prison. “If you don't you'll be locked up," he told her. “It is entirely up to you." Her accomplice, Andrew McAvoy, 41, of St James Court, Whitehaven, was given an 18-month community order on condition that he undergoes six months drug rehabilitation.
North Regional Library has grand opening
DURHAM -- Teachers, parents pushing strollers with children in tow, and neighbors of all kinds came out in force for Tuesday's grand opening of the Durham County North Regional Library. The 221 Milton Road facility is among several new Durham library branches on the books. Completed last year were a new East Regional branch and the renovation of the Stanford L. Warren branch. On tap are a new South Durham branch. The Southwest Durham branch is scheduled to be refurbished and enlarged. "When the Regional Library Project is complete, a beautiful, full library will be available within five miles of every person in the county," said County Commissioner Michael Page, library board liaison. As visitors took in the new library, some pointed out just how welcome it was. "This is marvelous. It's just what we needed," said Carrington Middle School teacher Cynthia Ferebee.
Zsa Zsa's husband says he could be father of Anna Nicole's baby
Now Zsa Zsa Gabor's husband says he could be the father of Anna Nicole Smith's baby.
Prince Frederick von Anhalt said today that he had a ten-year affair with Smith.
The claims comes amid a paternity battle between Smith's former boyfriend Larry Birkhead and attorney Howard K. Stern.
Von Anhalt says he first met Smith when she was married to the elderly millionaire whose fortune is now in dispute. He tells The Associated Press that Smith wanted to become a princess like Gabor. He says he offered to adopt her but Gabor wouldn't sign the papers.
Von Anhalt is 64. Gabor is now 90. They've been married for more than 20 years. Photo Copyright Getty Images ©2007 Associated Press. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten, or redistributed.
Woman Survives Terrifying Random Knife Attack
A woman walking her 1 year old in a stroller this morning was stabbed in the back. It appears the attacker is unknown to the woman, it was a totally random attack. She is in the hospital in serious but stable condition with a collapsed lung. Police were called about 10 am and a bloody knife was found near the scene. Police now have arrested and charged a 27 year old man with attempted murder. Police are trying to see if this attack and the one done on January 6th to a woman in the subway station are related. The woman in the subway station was also stabbed in the back by unknown, random attacker and he ran. Police never got that man. It sounds very similar. I would think it is the same man. Glad both ladies were not killed. .
