1) Ted Nugent's brother
http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/NewsTerm/~3/tCQcci0Dn78/ted-nugents-brother.html

Ted Nugent's brother, Jeffrey Nugent, brother of outspoken, ultra-conservative rocker Ted Nugent, is speaking out against recent comments his brother has made about gun rights.

Ted, who spoke earlier this month at a Houston NRA conference, vehemently decries any attempts to limit gun freedoms, such as greater background checks. Jeffrey began to get some heat because of his brother?s extremism, and so wrote an op-ed piece in the Washington Post about his support of greater background checks.

"I agree with Ted that our constitutional right to bear arms should not be undermined," wrote Jeffrey Nugent. "I want all those who are qualified to purchase a gun to be able to do so. But ? and here is where I part ways with my brother ? not everyone is qualified to own a gun, so expanded background checks should be a legislative priority."

Jeffrey, the former chief executive and president of [...]

2) Sinbad bankrupt
http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/NewsTerm/~3/dmHvnzRanv0/sinbad-bankrupt.html

Sinbad bankrupt, Sinbad is bankrupt again... or still. The comedian filed for bankruptcy for the second time according to TMZ. On May 20 it was reported that Sinbad filed for Chapter 13 bankruptcy in April claiming that he has $10,991,715 in debt but only $131,000 in assets. A lot of his debt stems from credit cards but he also says that he owes the IRS over $8 million.

Sinbad says "he owes $374,979 to American Express, $32,199 to Bank of America, and $2.3 million to the CA Franchise Tax Board" (via TMZ). Sinbad says that he "only" makes $16,000 a month which is far too little to pay off his debt.

So Sinbad is bankrupt and he will likely be allowed to go about his life and keep all of his things. As TMZ points out, Sinbad has some pretty sweet toys in his possession that he probably won't be selling any time soon.

According to the report, Sinbad has a "2007 BMW 750i, a 2006 VW [...]

http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/NewsTerm/~3/IFfgo7t4GdA/eleanor-mustang-sold.html

Eleanor Mustang sold, A 1967 Ford Mustang used during filming of 2000?s hit movie Gone in 60 Seconds has sold at auction for a staggering $1 million. This was no ordinary Mustang, however, as the car in question was none other than the famous ?Eleanor? Mustang driven by actor Nicholas Cage in the movie?s closing stages.

Eleven of the fictional Eleanor Mustangs were created for the movie, although only three of these were working cars, and two of these were destroyed during filming. This one was Cage?s primary ?beauty? car, used mostly for close ups as well as promotional efforts.

The car was sold during the Dana Mecum 26th Original Spring Classic Auction in Indianapolis last week.

No details about the auction?s winner have been announced, though the price paid is not at all unexpected given the car?s fame as well as its pedigree.

Though not an original Shelby, the Eleanor Mustangs [...]

http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/NewsTerm/~3/eX0c-JOSDNg/chad-johnson-in-custody.html

Chad Johnson in custody, Former ?Dancing With the Stars? celebrity and NFL player Chad Johnson is in custody Monday for violating his probation. TMZ broke the story on May 20, and they have the first picture of Johnson in handcuffs.

The arrest comes after a warrant was issued due to his failure to follow the terms of his probation tied to the domestic incident with ex-wife Evelyn Lozada.

Johnson appeared in court Monday morning in Broward County. The NFL free agent and former reality TV star is said to have violated his probation for the 2012 incident involving Lozada.

A judge agreed that Chad Johnson violated parole and ordered him arrested and jailed. He is said to have missed reporting to his probation officer twice, and he did not show proof of enrollment in a domestic violence education class.

Bail is expected to be set shortly, and then curious fans will have to wait and see [...]

http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/NewsTerm/~3/9MtKm0s3ZjQ/5-dead-in-bank-robbery.html

5 Dead in bank robbery, A gunman stormed into a bank in the southern Israeli city of Beersheba Monday, killing four people in a gunfight and taking a hostage before killing himself, police said.

Police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld said the shootings happened inside the bank, which was cordoned off with a large number of police. Israeli TV footage showed several ambulances parked outside. Four other people were wounded, one of them seriously.

Police said they were investigating the incident and backed off from initial claims that it had been a bungled bank robbery.

?We are not convinced entirely at this point that we are talking about a robbery or an attemptedrobbery but it could be we are talking about an incident where from the start, the murderer came in with an intention to shoot,? national police chief Yohanan Danino told reporters.

The man was identified as an Israeli in his 40s [...]

6) SNL cast crisis
http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/NewsTerm/~3/RUJidaioWbM/snl-cast-crisis.html

SNL cast crisis, There?s a bit of a cast crisis over at SNL. The show is saying goodbye to several of its veteran members and will almost have to start from scratch next year.

Kristin Wiig left the show last year and Bill Hader made his exit last Saturday. The show will also soon see the departure of Seth Meyers, who will be taking over Jimmy Fallon?s seat at Late Night, Jason Sudeikis and Fred Armisen.

Sudeikis and Armisen haven?t officially left the show but there are several reports circulating that the two veterans will not return next year.

That?s a lot of gaps to fill for when the show resumes next year.

But the SNL cast crisis may not be as dire as it seems. Variety notes that SNL has dealt with major cast turnovers before and they always seem to come out of it unscathed. The massive turnover could actually turn out to be a good thing.

Variety writes: ?The prospect of losing [...]

http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/NewsTerm/~3/UAaZRwJh35Q/joe-flacco-r-word.html

Joe Flacco the R-word, Joe Flacco's ?the R-word? pledge has people talking Monday, and NBC Sports shared the details. News came out on May 20 that Flacco, along with Baltimore Ravens teammates Ed Dickson and Gino Gradkowski, signed a pledge not to use the word ?retarded? anymore. As fans remember, Flacco got a lot of heat for using this word just before the Super Bowl.

The pledge comes after Joe Flacco said he thought playing the Super Bowl in New Jersey was ?retarded.? He quickly corrected himself and apologized, but now it seems he's taking things a step further. Joe Flacco's ?the R-word? pledge is an effort with the Maryland Special Olympics group to stop using the word in casual conversation.

The Maryland Special Olympics Twitter page shared a picture of the group holding up their signed pledges. Will Joe Flacco's ?the R-word? pledge spread awareness to others and help end the use [...]

http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/NewsTerm/~3/f28OwSo13Es/panettiere-rumors.html

Panettiere Rumors, Hayden Panettiere has gossip fiends talking about more than just her possible engagement to Ukrainian heavyweight boxer Wladimir Klitschko. When paparazzi snapped photos of the 23-year-old "Nashville" star in a bikini in Miami, rumors swirled that the young actress had gotten breast implants.

The Daily Mail published the images of Panettiere on the beach last weekend alongside pictures of her in 2009, looking a little less curvaceous.

Panettiere, who graces the cover of next month's Glamour, told the magazine in an interview that she managed to avoid the wild downward spirals that seemed to characterized the careers of a few of her contemporaries.

"The thing that really saved me was that I still had that healthy fear of my parents," she said. "I still had a midnight curfew at 18!"

9) Swift's disgusted reaction
http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/NewsTerm/~3/B4Py2IXW63M/swifts-disgusted-reaction.html

Swift's disgusted reaction, It looks like Taylor Swift was hoping that Selena Gomez was never, ever getting back together with Justin Bieber! The country cutie, who provided a shoulder for Selena to lean on during her big breakup with the Biebs, looked less than thrilled about the couple?s recent reconciliation when she caught them kissing backstage at the 2013 Billboard Music Awards on Sunday night ? and RadarOnline.com has the hilarious video.

Taylor, who dominated the awards show by going home with a whopping eight trophies, was walking and talking with Selena in the backstage area of the show, when the duo passed Bieber.

Selena stopped and smooched her on-again off-again beau, with her disapproving pal looking on with a snide smile on her face, before she stuck out her tongue with disgust.

Selena has gushed over her friendship with Taylor in several recent interviews, [...]

http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/NewsTerm/~3/p6tV_wvqSuw/7-horses-test-positive.html

7 horses test positive, British horse racing authorities have found that seven more horses in the stable of trainer Mahmood Al Zarooni have tested positive for steroids.

Last month, Zarooni was given an eight-year ban from British horse racing after 11 of the horses under his training had been doped with anabolic steroids.

Among the horses testing positive in the latest group were the 2012 St Leger winner Encke. The seven horses, which are all based at Moulton Paddocks in Newcastle, England, are Encke, Energizer, Genius Beast, Improvisation, Stamford, Steeler and Zip Top.

Zarooni is currently appealing his ban.

Last month, when Zarooni's doping practices became public, Dubai's ruler Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid al-Maktoum said, "There can be no excuse for any deliberate violation." Sheikh Mohammed, who is also Prime Minister of the United Arab Emirates, made the comments in a [...]

Yahoo buys tumblr, Yahoo announced today that it is buying blogging site Tumblr for $1.1bn, mostly in cash. In the posting, Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer made clear that the cooler, younger company would not be smothered by her firm's notorious corporate culture, under which many other purchases have withered and died.

We will operate Tumblr independently. David Karp will remain CEO. The product roadmap, their team, their wit and irreverence will all remain the same as will their mission to empower creators to make their best work and get it in front of the audience they deserve.

http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/NewsTerm/~3/uaKY4Y-oFgM/brittney-griner.html

Brittney griner, It's apparently no accident former Baylor star Brittney Griner didn't publicly reveal she was gay until after her college career ended last month.

Griner told espnW that Baylor women's basketball coach Kim Mulkey requested players not be publicly open about their sexuality out of fear it would affect the perception of the program in the community and negatively impact recruiting.

"It was a recruiting thing," Griner told espnW. "The coaches thought that if it seemed like they condoned it, people wouldn't let their kids come play for Baylor.

"It was just kind of, like, one of those things, you know, just don't do it. They kind of tried to make it, like, 'Why put your business out on the street like that?'"

Griner casually acknowledged she was gay last month during a series of interviews with reporters leading up to the WNBA draft. The No. 1 overall pick of the Phoenix [...]

http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/NewsTerm/~3/H2jvBmp9TF0/navy-dolphins-rare-torpedo.html

Navy dolphins rare torpedo, The discovery itself is notable enough: Navy specialists found a rare torpedo off the San Diego coast, an 11-foot brass gem called the Howell that dates back 130 years or so and was one of the first torpedoes to propel itself.

Only 50 were made, and only one other one still exists. But what makes the story even better is that the Navy specialists who found it were trained dolphins, reports the Los Angeles Times.

"Dolphins naturally possess the most sophisticated sonar known to man," explains a specialist at the Space and Naval Warfare Systems Center Pacific. "We've never found anything like this," says the head of the Navy's marine mammal program. "Never."

Give credit to dolphins Ten and Spetz for finding the torpedo, stamped "USN No. 24," and then directing human divers to the spot.

The torpedo, rendered inoperable by its long stay in the ocean, is now [...]

?Rafa was just too good today,? Federer said. Nadal said: ?For that to happen between two players with not that much difference, it has to be because one player plays very well and the other is having more mistakes than usual. That?s all.?

Nadal improved to 20-10 in his career against Federer, and he showed once again that he will be the player to beat when the French Open starts next Sunday. It was No. 5 Nadal?s sixth title since he returned this year from a seven-month layoff because of a left knee injury.

As boos continued from some corners, he said, "Basically from my heart I really just want to say it really should be about the music. It should be about the craft that I'm making. This is not a gimmick, and I'm an artist, and I should be taken seriously."

The night's host, Tracy Morgan, later chastised the mean-spirited crowd. "Don't be booin' nobody, this [...]
