Kid Gets Humiliated On Camera

"Wesley has a Virginia head"

Biker clocked at 383mph

An Italian motorcyclist is appealing after he lost his license when speed cameras clocked him at an impossible 383 mph.
Paolo Turina, 26 - who also copped a £200 fine - claims the speed camera was clearly so defective the charge should never have been brought.
"If I could go that fast I'd enter my bike in the MotoGP world championships. Valentino Rossi would not stand a chance. What did they think they were clocking - a jet fighter?" asked Mr Turina, of Cernusco Lombardone.
"If the court rules the fine will stand then I'm going to send it to the Guinness Book of Records - after all if the court says its true then I should get the credit for this remarkable feat."
Police claim the camera was working perfectly but said they suspected bungling staff botched the charge paperwork.
The appeal court has not yet made a decision on the case.

Colorado ski town legalizes pot
The Colorado ski town of Breckenridge has voted overwhelmingly to legalize marijuana.
Early returns Tuesday night showed the proposal winning with 72 percent of the vote. The measure would allow adults over 21 to have up to 1 ounce of marijuana.
The measure is largely symbolic because pot possession remains a state crime for people without medical clearance. But supporters said they wanted to send a message to local law enforcement to stop busting small-time pot smokers.
The vote comes as communities nationwide are struggling with how to enforce pot laws at a time when medical marijuana has surged in popularity.

Only in China

Doctors are caring for a two-headed baby dumped in an irrigation ditch by his mother.
Police in Hanzhuang, central China, found the hours-old infant after reports of a baby crying in the middle of the night.
Doctors say the abandoned tot has one fully formed head and another smaller head with only partially formed features.
The second head includes eyes, a nose, mouth and ears but has no body.
Carer Yuan Xianrong - in charge of the baby's well-being until his mom is found - said: "He is completely healthy except for his two heads. It's too early to talk about surgery yet.
"But it is amazing that he survived after being dumped in the ditch. It was filled with rubbish and mud and old water.
"When officers picked him up they at first did not realize he had the defamation and thought it was just rubbish stuck to the child - then they realized that the baby had the deformation and took him straight to the hospital."
Local officials are still searching for the mother.
