Parents Of Deceased UConn Student Try To Block Release Of Footage That Shows Her Death

The parents of a Jeffny Pally, the University of Connecticut student who died after being run over by a campus fire department vehicle, have asked the judge to block the release of surveillance video that shows their daughter’s death.

Jeffny’s parents, Abraham and Shinymol Chemmarappally, made the request, claiming the video would ’cause the family emotional anguish’. A Hartford Superior Court judge has scheduled a hearing for next Monday, as The Hartford Courant and others requested for the video to be released.

Pally was killed on the night of October 16, 2016,when she was run over by a university vehicle responding to a false alarm call. Pally’s body was not found until about 30 minutes later when the university firefighters. Pally, 19, died from injuries to her head and torso. Pally’s BAC was more than three times the legal limit in the state of Connecticut.

The driver of the vehicle wasn’t charged as the incident was ruled an accident, however, the two students responsible for the false alarm have been charged.

Six members of the Kappa Sigma fraternity at the University of Connecticut were also charged with alcohol-related offenses in relation to the death of Pally. A spokeswoman for the University of Connecticut confirmed the 6 students are still enrolled at UConn but said federal student privacy law prevents the university from saying whether any of them face discipline by the school.


Britney Spears Put On A Runway Show In Her House To Remind Us She’s Alive

Got to hand it to Britney Spears – she’s got some spunk. She’s the pop star that refuses to die.

Just when you think she’s done everything under the sun to seem simultaneously hot and crazy, she forces her housekeeper (total guess) to film her strutting down the halls of her own home.

Normally in a situation like this, I’d suggest the revered Hot-Crazy Matrix, but Britney Spears is to the Hot-Crazy Matrix as Donald Trump is to American government — the usual laws of logic and reason don’t apply.

So take this for what it is. Is Britney anywhere close to where she was when she was inspiring millions of young boys to bust out the hand lotion for the first time? No. But would you want your wife to be doing shit like this when you’re 35? 1000%.

‘Get Out’ Gets The Donald Trump Inspired Trailer It Deserves

Thanks to Logan being essentially the perfect movie, I saw it twice last weekend, so giving me no chance to see Get Out. I want to see it, but you can only eat so much movie popcorn in the course of a month.

Anyway, if you haven’t heard, Get Out, directed by Jordan Peele (the shorter & fatter half of Key & Peele), came out of nowhere to rewrite the definitions of shattering expectations.  The horror-comedy is one of the year’s best-reviewed films by a mile and has made $76 million after just two weeks.

Maybe Peele should helm a biopic about Trump’s rise to the presidency. That will be a lot more terrifying.

Now that Chris (Daniel Kaluuya) and his girlfriend, Rose (Allison Williams), have reached the meet-the-parents milestone of dating, she invites him for a weekend getaway upstate with Missy and Dean. At first, Chris reads the family’s overly accommodating behavior as nervous attempts to deal with their daughter’s interracial relationship, but as the weekend progresses, a series of increasingly disturbing discoveries lead him to a truth that he never could have imagined.

Kylie Jenner Prances Around The Grasslands Like A Plastic Gazelle

Another week, another preposterous Kylie Jenner photoshoot.

On Monday morning, Kylie shared photos taken by what seems to be her personal photographer, Sasha Samsonova. The 19-year-old makeup mogul can be seen wearing some sort of leather bathing suit thing. Yet again, I have NO idea what’s going on, but I’m interested.

I debated giving up writing about Kylie Jenner for lent, but then she comes out of left field with maybe her most ridiculous looking photoshoots yet. Just when you think she’s pulled out all the stops, she helicopters out to the middle of the grasslands to prance around like some sort of sexual gazelle.

I tell you what though — I definitely chose the wrong career path. Photography was clearly the way to go.

18-Year-Old Oliver Funez Chops His Mother’s Head Off & Then Calls Police On Himself

Oliver Funez, bornOliver Mauricio Funes Machada, is a North Carolina teenager who has been charged with the murder of his mother after he was found walking down the street with her severed head in one hand and a bloody knife in the other. Funez, 18, called 911 to tell police he had just killed his mother at their home in Franklin County, North Carolina.

“It looked to be a large butcher knife, the weapon that was used,” said Sheriff Kent Winstead.

Franklin County Sheriff Kent Winstead said Funez is being charged with first-degree murder. According to the Sheriff’s Office, the responding officer found the decapitated body of 35-year-old Yesenia Funez Beatriz Machado. Another two young siblings were found at the home but fortunately, they were unharmed. A fourth child was at school.

The killing happened around 1:00 P.M. at 90 Morgan Drive in the Pilot community near Zebulon, according to Winstead.

Via WBTW:

Neighbors were also stunned by the news of the death.

“Complete and utter shock. Pilot, Zebulon this whole area is a quiet area and I didn’t know what to expect when I got home and saw police cars and everything around,” said Ryan Reader, a neighbor.

Funez is being held in a local jail and it is unknown whether or not Funez has an attorney. Authorities say the other children are with their father.

“It’s a terrible situation for the family, a terrible situation for the neighborhood and this county. I’m just glad things worked out the way they did and no one else was hurt in taking the suspect into custody,” Winstead said.

Crime scene analysis was delayed for a couple hours because the Sheriff’s Office had to go to a neighboring county inorder to obtain a search warrant. Sheriff Winstead said a judge signed the order around 4:15 PM.

North Carolina prosecutors are seeking mental evaluation of the 18-year-old.  While Franklin County District Attorney Mike Waters told WRAL that Machada’s “mental state will be a primary interest” over the next few weeks, he conceded that it could take months to determine Funez’s mental state. Furthmore, Waters said he has reviewed the recording of the 911 call, although he will not release it.

JCC Rochester Bomb Threat

A Jewish Community Center in Rochester, New York was evacuated Tuesday morning due to a bomb threat. The investigation is ongoing.

See below for the full story.

What Happened?

UPDATE: The JCC has been cleared of the bomb threat and will reopen at 10:00 A.M. EST.

The Rochester, New York JCC was evacuated shortly before 6:00 A.M. EST, according to the local ABC affiliate 13WHAM. Roughly 75 people were cleared from the building. All parents of children who attend the JCC daycare were quickly notified and asked to make alternative child care arrangements for the day.

Local and state authorities are on the scene alongside FBI agents. They reportedly searched the building for any potential threats, finding none. The center was closed until at least 9:00 A.M. EST.

“I am aware that there are other JCC facilities across the country that have received the same or similar type threats,” Brighton Police Chief Mark Henderson said during a morning briefing on the side of Edgewood Avenue. “We will work with the FBI to see if this was a similar type threat.”

It is unknown at this time how the threat was received. However, Henderson said that previously established protocols were in place to deal with this type of incident.

“We’ve worked with JCC on emergency planning for a number of years,” he said. The protocol “went into place immediately. The facility was locked down and an evacuation occurred.”

This incident comes amidst a wave of increased anti-Semitic activity across the country. Just lass week, at least five headstones were vandalized at the Waad Hakolel Cemetery, also known as the Stone Road Cemetery, in Rochester.

More than 100 Jewish institutions, the majority being JCCs, have received bomb threats since January 2017. Jewish cemeteries in Philadelphia, St. Louis, and New York have been desecrated in the last two weeks, in addition to increased bomb threats.

On Tuesday, March 7, WikiLeaks published thousands of what it claim are official documents from the CIA’s Center For Cyber Intelligence. They are calling the release the “entire hacking capability” of the CIA.

While the information dump could not be immediately verified by The Associated Press, experts who’ve started to look over the dump say it appears to be legitimate. These experts are also saying a dump of this magnitude will certainly rock the CIA.

Via Fox 5:

“There’s no question that there’s a fire drill going on right now,” said Jake Williams, a security expert with Augusta, Georgia-based Rendition Infosec. “It wouldn’t surprise me that there are people changing careers — and ending careers — as we speak.”

Jonathan Liu, a spokesman for the CIA, said: “We do not comment on the authenticity or content of purported intelligence documents.”

WikiLeaks has been hinting at a new information release for the past month. Wikileaks said in a statement that the CIA has “recently lost control” of its “massive arsenal of hacking tools.”

The information NPO additionally said that “the archive appears to have been circulated among former U.S. government hackers and contractors in an unauthorized manner” and that one of them “provided WikiLeaks with portions of the archive.”

The 8,761 documents and files, released as “Vault 7 Part 1”, were obtained from an “isolated, high-security network” at the CIA’s Center for Cyber Intelligence in Langley, Virginia, a press release from the website said.

The ACC Tournament is always one of the premier conference tournaments to watch, and this year is certainly no exception. Joe Lunardi currently has 10 ACC teams making it into the NCAA Tournament, which is easily the most of any conference. With six teams in the latest AP Top 25 poll, the ACC is absolutely stacked from top to bottom, making this a wide open tournament.

The 2017 ACC Tournament will be held from Tuesday, March 7 through Saturday, March 11 at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York. North Carolina will be the favorite out of the 15-team field, as they finished first in the regular season with a 14-4 record in conference play.

The Tar Heels also won the ACC Tournament last year, outlasting Virginia 61-57 in the championship game. But Duke still holds a razor-thin edge over North Carolina when it comes to all-time ACC Tournament titles, as the Blue Devils have won 19 championships and the Tar Heels have cut down the nets 18 times.

Now that the stage has been set, let’s breakdown the bracket and full schedule of the 2017 ACC Tournament.

University Of Central Arkansas Student Juggles To Prove His Sobriety

Blayk Puckett, a University of Central Arkansas student who was pulled over on suspicion of DUI, proved his sobriety by juggling. Here I was thinking that hot chicks were the only ones with the tools to get out of a DUI. Turns out all you need is a couple of bowling pins and a pervy talent.

Officers said they pulled over Blayk Puckett on Friday because he was driving slowly and had a broken taillight. Well, turns out that Puckett is just a slow-driving magician. In fact, he magicians so f*cking hard that his license plate even says “JUGGLER.”

Hopefully, this kid has himself a magician girlfriend, because I have to imagine the combination of a Pontiac with a broken taillight and a penchant for magic doesn’t necessarily wow the sorority girls.

The officers said they quickly realized that Puckett was sober, but he offered to juggle for them anyway, because that’s what magicians do: show anyone who’s willing to watch.

“I knew I could prove I hadn’t been drinking, especially with juggling clubs in the backseat,” Puckett said.

Even the officer couldn’t resist documenting the moment.

Don’t let the Atlantic 10 name fool you, as there will be 14 teams battling to earn an automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament. The 2017 Atlantic 10 Tournament is set to take place from Wednesday, March 8 through Sunday, March 12 at the PPG Paints Arena in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

Dayton and VCU are considered the front-runners to win the tournament, as they finished first and second in the regular season, respectively. Dayton posted a 15-3 in-conference record, while VCU went 14-4 in the Atlantic 10. Joe Lunardi currently has Dayton in the NCAA Tournament as an 8-seed and VCU in as a 9-seed, so both of these schools can clearly play.

In last year’s Atlantic 10 Tournament, Saint Joseph’s defeated VCU in the championship game 87-74 to punch their ticket to the big dance. They went on to beat Cincinnati in the first round of the NCAA Tournament in a nail-biting finish.

Now that the stage has been set, let’s breakdown the bracket and schedule for the 2017 Atlantic 10 Tournament.

Whether Or Not You’ve Seen ‘Logan,’ This Video Will Kick You In The Feels

Honestly, I’m only writing this article because I want to talk about how goddamn good Logan was. I’m a big comic book guy, and not since The Dark Knight has a comic book film made you forget that what you’re watching is based on a cartoon. The only reason Logan isn’t going to be nominated for Best Picture at next year’s Oscars is that A.) it came out in March, and B.) because the Academy discriminates against comic flicks. Hopefully, with the expanded field of nominees, Logan sneaks its way in, even though it has absolutely no shot of winning.

That said, Hugh Jackman unequivocally deserves to be nominated for Best Actor in a Leading Role come the 90th Academy Awards. Watch Casey Affleck in Manchester By The Sea or Eddie Redmayne’s performance in The Theory Of Everything and tell me Jackman isn’t better.

Anyway, apparently someone with far superior film editing skills than I also adored Logan and decided to put together this kickass retrospective. I’m a sucker for retrospectives (and Johnny Cash and comic books), so this was a layup for me. And if you’ve ever enjoyed a single X-Men movie, this video’s a layup for you too.

Jimmy became more prominent on SNL when he took on the role of an anchor on Weekend Update alongside Tina Fey. Being the lead anchor certainly has its perks.

Fallon also released his comedy CD, Blow Your Pants Off, which included songs performed on the show. Blow Your Pants Off ended up winning the Grammy for Best Comedy Album. It seemed like every segment went viral. When Fallon took over The Tonight Show in 2014, his salary went from $5 million a year to $14 million, making him the second-highest paid talk show host in late night.

Jimmy Fallon’s net worth now stands at $35 million. From his years at Saturday Night Live to his short-lived movie career, to his seat behind the desk at Late Night, Fallon has slowly become everyone’s favorite talk show host.

The start of Coach Boeheim’s career didn’t seem to be a groundbreaking event. He was a young coach just starting out in the business. The Big East wasn’t even a viable option at the time. Therefore, Boeheim only made a few thousand dollars in the beginning of his career. By 1987, the Orange were part of the most powerful basketball conference. More importantly, coaches started earning more money as the sneaker explosion commenced. Boeheim made his first Final Four appearance during the ’87 season. They lost on a last second Keith Smart jump shot in the title game. Boeheim had an opportunity to accept a position with the Ohio State Buckeyes for more money, but he decided to remain in Syracuse.

As a result of their success in the early ’80s, the Orange became a power program in the modern era. Their program branding began to take off as the television money increased. The Orange found their second Final Four season during the 1996 season. Once again, they lost in the championship game to the Kentucky Wildcats. Despite the loss, Boeheim’s stature continued to grow.

Coach Boeheim earned slightly more than $1 million per season at the turn of the century. During this five-year run, Boeheim led the Orange to four NCAA Tournament appearances and one Big East Championship. He also earned his lone national title in 2003.

Even when college coaching salaries started to increase rapidly, Boeheim’s structure remained intact. Furthermore, there were rumors about Boeheim’s impending retirement. He still had not reached $2 million in salary. Yet, Boeheim remained the highest paid employee at Syracuse University. The Orange played their final Big East season in 2013. They also finished their Big East tenure with a Final Four run.


2016 – 2017

In 2016, Boeheim was the 20th highest paid coach in the NCAA Tournament. He made $2.14 million last season. Despite struggling throughout the year, the Orange salvaged the season by making a run during March Madness. The Orange entered the tournament as the No. 10 seed and won four games, making the improbable Final Four run.

Boeheim also earns between $10,000-$20,000 per speaking engagement. He performs a number of private events during the summer. Additionally, Coach Boeheim has been a member of the United States Men’s National Basketball team since 2006.

There’s a chance that Boeheim could be coaching his last season, though he has not made a decision about his future yet. If he does coach in 2017, Boeheim’s salary is set to be less than $2.5 million. However, Boeheim has an opportunity to make more money in new ventures, including television.

Daylight Savings Time 2017: When Does Daylight Savings Start?

Daylight Savings Time (DST) is set to begin on Sunday, March 12, 2017 at 2:00 A.M. The clock will officially move forward one hour at that time, which is also known as “Spring Forward.”

Every spring at this time, we lose one hour of sleep to Daylight Savings Time and the days become longer. DST has been a subject of controversy over the years, but has continued to be a mainstay throughout the world and is recognized by around 70 countries.


Daylight Savings Time in 2017

Daylight Savings in USA: 2:00 A.M.
Daylight Savings in Arizona: No Daylight Savings Time
Daylight Savings in Canada: 2:00 A.M.
Daylight Savings in UK: March 26, 1:00 A.M.
Daylight Savings in Brazil: February 19, 12:00 A.M.


Daylight Savings Time was created in order to make better use of daylight by extending the length of the day, while also attempting to conserve energy. The initial idea was proposed by Benjamin Franklin as more of a joke to help save candles by getting people to wake up earlier in his essay, “An Economical Project for Diminishing the Cost of Light.”

The idea of Daylight Savings was first used in Canada in 1908. Port Arthur, or modern day Thunder Bay, was the first location to implement DST. It became extremely popular and quickly spread throughout Canada and the world.

Germany became the first country to introduce Daylight Savings Time on April 30, 1916, when clocks were moved forward one hour. Many other countries followed suit, as the plan was to save fuel during World War I. Although some countries went back to the old time standard after WWI, DST became a worldwide norm around World War II.

The U.S. offers an act where any state can opt out of Daylight Savings Time. The only two states that have decided to opt out are Hawaii and Arizona. DST now always begins on the second Sunday in March and ends on the first Sunday in November after President George W. Bush signed the Energy Policy Act of 2005.

A study published back in 2015 showed that daily incidents of robbery actually dropped by seven percent following the start of DST in the spring. Daylight Savings Time has also been found to decrease the number of heart attacks, as well as reducing energy usage.

CNN Contributor Katrina Pierson Claims She Denied A White House Job

Katrina Pierson, an American Tea Party activist and communications consultant who gained recognition as a Trump campaign spokesperson, recently told The Washingtonian that she was offered a position in the administration but claims she turned it down.

Since November 2015, Pierson has been the national spokesperson for the Donald Trump presidential campaign and a regular CNN contributor. Previously, Pierson worked for InVentiv Health in 2008, the Baylor Health Care System from July 2009 to August 2011, for ASG Software Solutions, as the director of corporate affairs, from May 2011 to December 2012. She then worked a variety of jobs until being hired by the Trump campaign.

Many assumed Pierson had a role in the Trump administration after being one of his most vocal representatives, however, nothing came to be. Now, Pierson is claiming the decision not to join the debacle that is the Trump administration was her own.

“It was funny because I think it might have been a week later … I called ’em up and said, ‘You know, I’ve been thinking about it, and I think I’m gonna go over to the c4.’ I talked to … staff, who were very disappointed. But they understood. Everybody said, ‘Do what you feel is in your heart.’”

Pierson is now a part of the pro-Trump NPO America First Policies.

Anti-Defamation League Offices Across Country Hit With Bomb Threats

Four Anti-Defamation League offices across the country received bomb threats today, according to the nonprofit’s CEO.

The Atlanta, Boston, New York, and Washington D.C. offices received threatening phone calls on the same day that four Jewish Community Centers and one day school were targeted with bomb threats.

What Happened?

Bomb threats were called into four ADL offices Tuesday, says CEO Jonathan Greenblatt. Among the offices threatened were Atlanta, Boston, New York, and Washington D.C. These threats come amidst a wave of increased anti-Semitic activity as a handful of Jewish cemeteries have been vandalized in recent weeks and countless JCC’s across the country have been faced with bomb threats since the new year.

“This is not normal,” Greenblatt said. “We will not be intimidated.”

In a separate tweet, Greenblatt called on President Donald Trump to “take concrete steps to catch those threatening the Jewish community.”

The Anti-Defamation League was founded in 1913 “to stop the defamation of the Jewish people” and advocate for justice, according to the organization’s website.
