Sacramento is best known as the capitol of California and the home of the “Govonator” or action film mega star (and serial stripper gropper, if you believe the reports) Arnold (hey I never gropped no strippers) Schwarzenegger ( how do you spell that again?). But if you talk to MMA fans these days they are not talking about the guy who is know for saying “I’ll be back”. Instead they might be talking about the guy who says, “I want my belt back”. A real life gladiator that goes by the name of Urijah Faber. Faber was born and bread in Sacramento. He made a name for him self by fighting his way to the top (no pun intended). Urijah is all smiles and out of the ring and is a real down to earth guy that hasn’t let his ego get to his head. Sacramento’s real life home town hero held his belt as the featherweight champion of the world with the WEC. A not so popular man by the name of Mike Brown from Florida walked into the octagon in November of 2008 and knocked Faber out in the 1st round. Fans and press say it was the punch heard around the world and it meant Faber would give up his belt for the time being. Urijah recovered from the powerful blow Brown gave him in a matter of minutes and already had his mind set on getting his belt back and taking the championship back for himself and for his loyal fans around the world. Go to Sacramento Strippers if you are ever having a bachelors party.
On June 7th, 2009 Mike Brown will go into Urijah Faber’s back yard and defend his title for the featherweight championship fight of the world. 14,000 people will pack into the Arco Stadium in Sacramento, not to mention the millions watching the fight live on the VS channel to see if Mike Brown will continue to carry the title of CHAMP or if Faber will get his belt back.

Tuesday, June 30th, 2009Is Singer Rihanna A Bad Neighbor?
Wednesday, June 24th, 2009According to various mainstream media reports, the singer Rihanna is apparently a terrible neighbor 9if you believe the accusations) who could be headed to court because of the accusation.
All in all, a lawsuit has been filed by Rihanna’s long suffering neighbor Christian Moeller, who says that the twenty-one year old celebrity is hardly an ideal neighbor. He claims that vehicles visiting the singer park on his property, including a vehicle which is hired by her which sometimes waits for many hours. All of this has caused him to file the lawsuit in Los Angeles Superior Court against her as well as the owner of the home she rents. It sounds like living next to her is a real life nightmare, yikes!
The southern California home is rented by Rihanna and owned by one Stephen Yacobian, who recently remodeled it, which also eliminated any type of parking. This caused luxury vehicles to park on Moeller’s property for what he claims is hours at a time, this essentially turning his yard into Rihanna’s personal parking space, with vehicles using his driveway as a turn around spot.
In addition, his suit claims this is an invasion of his privacy and that he has a security camera installed to prove the trespass and invasion of privacy, among other claims. The singer is known for her flashy lifestyle and her artisan jewelry including cufflinks and sometimes leather jewelry.
For his part, Yacobian has publically said that his case is without merit, but did not elaborate until he speaks with his lawyer. There have been no comments from Rihanna’s representatives about the suit filed by Moeller.
Lindsay Lohan may be under Suspicion for Missing Jewelry
Tuesday, June 23rd, 2009Get ready for some rather weird celebrity related news: According to various mainstream reports Lindsay Lohan is evidently wanted for questioning by the investigative unit Scotland Yard (which is somewhat similiar to our FBI, I suppose) of jolly old England following the mysterious disappearance of around a half million bucks in jewelry. The Investigators in question are trying to find her (to question her, not detain her, there is no warrent) after the jewelry was used in a photography session shoot for Elle Magazine with the actress. Following that particular session, the jeweler there apparently determined that the jewelry was missing. It should be noted that even if she is arrested for the crime, she is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in a court of law. All in all, the representatives for the magazine have stated they have no knowledge where the missing jewelry might be. It is also reported that Lohan’s representatives have not responded to the jeweler or to the magazine editors. At this specific time, it is not entirely clear if the missing items were leather, wood, copper or artisan jewelry. That being said, it could have even been cufflinks or some sort of contemporary jewelry we are talking about here.
In any event, it was almost certainly designer jewelry, I would be willing to bet, with that kind of cost.
As it stands now, it should be noted that the british agency has made pretty clear that the actress is only wanted for questioning, and that there are a number of various persons of interest who are on their radar screen. Scotland Yard generally has a well-earned reputation for being efficient and not jumping to wild conclusions. All in all, this is really not the only situation in which her name has been somehow connectedwith missing merchandise. For instance, the mega-star designer Louis Vitton ( anyone who has ever walked into a Nordstrum’s or Macy’s department store knows who this is) will not work with her anymore, following a specific incident in which samples of clothing were used for a photo sessions turned up lost or missing. Lohan according to a stylist’s assistant placed them in her handbag a number of times. I am not certain and she is presumed innocent for now but I wonder if we may have another Winona Ryder situation on our hands here. I believe that it is known as Kleptomania.
Off Duty Cop Pleads Not Guilty
Saturday, June 20th, 2009Chicago Police detective Joseph Frugoli pleaded not guilty in court after being charged with reckless homicide and aggravated driving under the influence.
The plea was entered in connection with the crash he was involved in crashing his sport utility vehicle into a car that was parked along side the expressway. The crash killed two people identified as Andrew Cazares age 23 and Fausto Manzera age 21, that were both residents of Chicago. Incidentially if you need a professional Chicago dui lawyer then I suggest Mathew Miller. He is simply one of the very best Chicago dui lawyer around.
According to prosecutors the Chicago police officer that has been relieved of his duties say Frugoli’s blood alcohol level was three times the legal limit at the time of the crash. They also state that the officer tried to flee the scene of the crash after a person passing by the crash helped him from the vehicle and he was apprehended a short time later. Frugoli who has pleaded not guilty is free on $500,000 bail and has been relieved of his duties.
West Chicago Teen Charged In DUI Accident
Friday, June 19th, 2009The teen charged in a driving under the influence accident that killed one teenager and injured two other is identified as Oneeofrio Lorusso age 18. He has been charged with driving under the influence, unlawful consumption of alcohol by a minor, and another misdemeanor, which is failure to reduce speed to avoid an accident. Lorusso was driving a 2005 Ford Explorer in the cities east side 3100 block of Royal Fox Drive when he lost control of the SUV striking two trees according to authorities.
The accident occurred at approximately 3:22 a.m., striking two trees trapping the driver and passengers in the vehicle. The St. Charles Police Department and the fire department responded to the scene of the one vehicle crash. By the way if you live in the area and need a good Chicago dui lawyer may I suggest Mathew Miller. He is one of the best Chicago dui lawyer around.
According to authorities Lorusso who was driving, and three other passengers had to be extracted from the vehicle, using extraction tools.
Lorusso who according to the St. Charles police was driving was injured and transported to Delnor Community Hospital in Geneva, where he remains and has been charged, but not formally been through the booking process. Passenger Cameron Godee age 18, resident of West Chicago was pronounced dead at the scene of the crash. Passengers injured were identified as a 16-year-old male was transported to Central Dupage Hospital in Winfield and a 17-year-old girl was transported to Delnor Community Hospital.
Man stabs woman over some jewelry
Sunday, June 14th, 2009An 18-year-old man has been indicted for a suspected triple stabbing in an appalling, abusive crime on a woman and some men over some mere jewelry; the man has been identified as Mitchell Ridout of Allenstown.
According to the Merrimack County Attorney Katherine Rogers, Rideout got into an argument over a piece jewelry with Lacy Lane while at a party, stabbing her in the chest and side. When attempting to leave, two men he also stabbed tried to stop Rideout, Marc Temple was stabbed in the neck and back and Randall Hamilton Jr. was stabbed in the chest and abdomen.
Lane according to Rogers has over 900 pages of medical reports and had to have a kidney removed due to the stabbing by Rideout. It seems that there has been a lot of violent crime in Pennsylvania as of late. As an aside if you require a solid
Philadelphia personal injury lawyer then may I suggest the law offices of Mark Rosenberg as he is one of the best Philadelphia personal injury lawyer around.
The Merrimack County Grand Jury indicted Rideout on four counts of first degree assault and according to Rogers, he has made phone calls from the county jail was recorded with Rideout telling someone about the stabbing and laughing. He also told a witness whose identity has not been released that he had stabbed a woman over the jewelry according to police.
There has not been a court date set for Rideout on the two counts of first degree assault against Lane and one count of first degree assault for both Hamilton and Temple. Attacking someone over some bling bling jewelry is simply not acceptable in this society, in my personal opinion.

What’s All the Fuss About Fur Balls?
Wednesday, June 3rd, 2009Every one in a while, you may have noticed your cat cough. You may first attribute it to their cat food. If you’re never had a cat, you might find the site alarming when you see your cat coughing. You may think he’s sick, that he doesn’t like his cat food, or that’s he’s swallowed something – as they will typically scrunch down on all fours, close to the ground, and typically extend their chin out, elongating their neck. Usually, this behavior is quite normal and is not harmful to your cat. Your cat is just trying to get rid of a fur ball.
So what’s up with Kitty when he does this? Cats clean themselves by licking their fur. This behavior helps to keep their fur tidy and fresh looking. Often, you can tell a sick cat right way by the mere fact that their fur is unkempt, dirty and ragged looking. Because cat fur length and density varies from breed to breed it’s especially important to give your cats some assistance when they may have more fur than other breeds.
As an aside I recommend that you feed your feline a premium cat food, especially in this time of pet food recalls. After all, a premium cat food can help in so many ways related to health.
Persians for one are a breed than can use their owner’s assistance in maintaining a healthy appearance. They tend to get food and other items easily stuck in their fur and are more prone to tear staining around their eyes. Once their fur gets wet and dirty, this just seems to compile and get worse. This can become an issue for these cats as they continually try to groom themselves to get themselves clean, which could result in a possible hairball fiasco.
To minimize hairballs in your cat, brush him regularly especially if he has long hair, to keep lose fur at a minimum. What you don’t want is Kitty swallowing lots of his own hair, which will go directly into his stomach. The hair is not food, it is not digestible, so Kitty will try to cough it back up. If you need to, trim your cat’s hair if necessary, and be sure to remove anything stuck in your cat’s fur.
