anti-illegal
immigration law), actress Lindsay Lohan beginning a 14 day jail sentence (reduced from 90 days due to overcrowding) for violating probation in a 2007 drug case, Wikileaks posting 90,000 leaked U.S. military records from the war in Afghanistan, and.....

The city of Opa-locka, Florida voted unanimously to fine people $250 if they don't pull their pants up.
