Once upon a time, in a land far away...
Once upon a time, in a land far away, A beautiful, independent, self assured princess, happened upon a frog as she sat contemplating ecological issues on the shores of an unpolluted pond in a verdant meadow near her castle.
The frog hopped into the Princess' lap and said "Elegant Lady, I was once a handsome Prince, until an evil witch cast a spell upon me. One kiss from you, however, and I will turn back into the dapper, young Prince that I am and then, my sweet, we can marry and set up housekeeping in yon castle with my Mother, where you can prepare my meals, clean my clothes, bear my children, and forever feel grateful and happy doing so."
That night, while enjoying a repast of lightly sautéed frog legs seasoned in a white wine and onion cream sauce, she chuckled to herself and thought... "I don't f---ing think so."

Ice people - 200,000 years ago
The Neanderthals were committed carnivores, and in order to obtain enough animal meat to survive, they needed to be skilled hunters. Neanderthals hunted bison, auroch (an ancestor of living cattle), deer, reindeer and musk ox, to name but a few.
They probably trapped their prey in bogs or on deep stream banks before closing in with their spears and making a kill at close range. A high rate of head and neck trauma in Neanderthals matches the pattern seen in present-day rodeo riders suggesting that, like these sportsmen, Neanderthals were tackling big animals up close and getting thrown off them.
"They do seem to have gone in for a much more in-your-face culture. That was reflected in the way they went in for the food quest. It was the same sort of pattern," says Gamble. "This applied to the way they built their societies, which I think were based on face-to-face interaction."

Squirrel goes on rampage, injures 3
An aggressive squirrel attacked and injured three people in a German town before a 72-year-old pensioner dispatched the rampaging animal with his crutch.
The squirrel first ran into a house in the southern town of Passau, leapt from behind on a 70-year-old woman, and sank its teeth into her hand, a local police spokesman said Thursday.
With the squirrel still hanging from her hand, the woman ran onto the street in panic, where she managed to shake it off.
The animal then entered a building site and jumped on a construction worker, injuring him on the hand and arm, before he managed to fight it off with a measuring pole.
"After that, the squirrel went into the 72-year-old man's garden and massively attacked him on the arms, hand and thigh," the spokesman said. "Then he killed it with his crutch."
The spokesman said experts thought the attack may have been linked to the mating season or because the squirrel was ill.

The Return of ‘If I Did It’
O.J. Simpson’s hypothetical tell-all book “If I Did It” may be published after all—with the help of murder victim Ronald L. Goldman’s family. A California court ruled Tuesday that proceeds from the auction of the book rights would go to the Goldman family, not Simpson. Simpson was found liable in 1997 for the wrongful deaths of Goldman and O.J.’s ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson, which occured on June 12, 1994. Simpson has paid almost nothing of the $33.5 million judgment (now, with interest, grown to $38 million) he owes to the Goldman and Brown families.
So this week a judge in Santa Monica, Calif., took the book’s “reversionary” rights from Simpson, and awarded them to the Goldman family. He also ordered that the rights be auctioned at a sheriff’s sale in Sacramento, where current publisher HarperCollins has an office. The mysterious company that originally sold the book to HarperCollins may try to block the sale, according to Simpson’s attorney, which could happen next month. But in theory, when HarperCollins’s rights to the book lapse this summer, the new owner would be free to publish.

Dale Jr. turns to old friend for new home
Will he win now?
Earnhardt Jr. agrees to 5-year deal, says he and Hendrick share bond beyond racing
Dale Earnhardt Jr. has never second-guessed his decision to leave Dale Earnhardt Inc. at the end of the 2007 season, but that doesn't mean he hasn't had some anxiety since announcing it.
"The hard part for me was being in limbo, not having a home, not knowing what my future was," he said. "It was really uncharted territory for me."
That ended Wednesday when Earnhardt Jr. announced a five-year agreement to drive for Hendrick Motorsports beginning in 2008.

Bob Barker Takes a Bow
Daytime-television icon Bob Barker taped his last episode of The Price Is Right Wednesday, capping a 50-year broadcasting career—35 of them spent on the classic game show—surrounded by die-hard fans, some who traveled thousands of miles and camped out by CBS Television City to ensure a seat for the silver-haired emcee's final bow.
(Although a few of the people lined up outside pondered whether there might be a super-special prize or a brand-new car for every audience member on what promised to be a particularly memorable day, anyway.)
"I'd rather win a couch from Bob Barker than a million dollars from Howie Mandel," NASA engineer Mark Dub, who flew in from Houston, told the Associated Press outside the studio. "He's part of American culture."

Paris Hilton sentenced to 45 days in jail
Oh, how the mighty have fallen!
A judge sentenced a shocked and tearful Paris Hilton to 45 days in jail on Friday, ruling that the celebrity hotel heiress violated her probation for an earlier alcohol-related traffic offense.
Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Michael Sauer sternly rejected Hilton's story that she did not knowingly disobey the law by driving while her license was suspended and ordered the 26-year-old socialite to report to a county detention facility on June 5, or face 90 days in jail.
Hilton wept and her mother, Kathy, yelled at the prosecutor, "You're pathetic," as the packed courtroom cleared.
