A Wednesday’s lead heroine, Deepal Shaw turned shocked by the incident where she was mistaken for a house maid. One of Deepal’s friend told us, “Deepal had gone visiting another friend’s house and as she boarded the lift, two more ladies hopped in. Very casually dressed in a Salwar Kameez, Deepal was her normal self sans make up. Both the ladies looked at her up and down and enquired with

There's an old-fashioned, verdant peice of wisdom, altogether unsuited for the enlightened age we live in; fished up, probably, from some musty old newspaper, edited by some eccentric man troubled with that inconvenient appendage called a heart! Don't pay any attention to it. If a poor wretch--male of female--comes to you for charity, whether allied to you by your own mother, or mother Eve, put on

What looked at first like another PR blow to "Valkyrie," the twice-delayed Tom Cruise film based on the true story of a German officer who plotted to assassinate Hitler, turned out to be a case of mistaken photo identity. A report posted on Slate.com last week suggested that United Artists had doctored a portrait of Claus von Stauffenberg to make it more closely resemble the "Top Gun" actor. One p

This morning was the last day of my daughter's preschool class; as it was a special day, and a bittersweet one at that, it was a session primarily without restraints.

Instead of a set snack time, the kids were allowed to wander into the kitchen and nibble whenever

Better yet, it turns out the person they're looking for ... well, it's not you. That's precisely what happened to 39-year-old Kevin Taylor, who lives in a quiet Newark neighborhood.

We have the video of the Philadelphia police beating three shooting suspects after an auto chase. At least 15 officers were allegedly involved in the beating, and 13 have been removed from duty pending a police investigation of the incident.Attorneys representing the three defendants claim that the police officers that were involved in the beating concocted a story that the defendants were shooting suspects so they could cover up a police error that the police mistook one of the defendants for another man sought in a cop killing from the previous weekend.The first video is strictly a video of the beating with no audio to speak of:Philadelphia Police Commissioner Charles Ramsey and Mayor Michael Nutter denied the cover-up allegations and said that officers legitimately pursued the defendant

Actually, I felt semi-productive yesterday. I managed to write just a little over a thousand words again on the WIP. No, the hero and heroine aren't free yet. I'm beginning to think it's never going to happen, which is going to make for an interesting ending. ;-) What else? Oh, yes! I made it to kickboxing. On time, even! Thought I'd see my sister there, but apparently her church classes

It has been said that on Wednesday. David Beckham was mistaken for a car thief when police officers pulled him over. David was driving his Range Rover through Epping, Essex when he was flagged down by police after a number of 4×4 vehicles were stolen in the area. A witness said that “Becks pulled into a hotel. The window came down and in 15 seconds he was gone.” Essex police confirmed that they had checked the ownership of Beckham’s car. Well all I can say is a least the police where doing their job even if they did pull over David Beckham. source Written by Kerry for Product ReviewsIn Sections: Celebrity News, News

A story of mine: When I was in middle school I bought this sweet jacket, it had a reversible red vest inside, which had a black side and a bright red side. The red side was way stylish, but too cool for me to wear to school, however, I was in the mall one day and so I flipped it, red side out. I happened to be in Walgreen’s when an old lady came up to me and asked me if I could show her where the pepto bismol was. You can imagine my embarrassment, she had mistaken me, the cool middle schooler with the red vest, for a Walgreen’s employee. It was a case of mistaken identity, that ended only in my own embarrassment. Needless to say I never wore my vest red side out again. Now, imagine if you couldn’t change your identity with just the flip of your vest… And, the mistaken identity resulted sometimes in more then just embarrassment. Also, for some inordinate reason, white people often seem to mistake me for an employee of home improvement stores. Hello! No orange ap

Man in Germany goes to a Halloween party dressed as a zombie. On his way home, he passes out in the train. New passengers board, see that he is not responsive, and call the police thinking that he may be dead.

KEMAMAN: She felt a warm body next to her. Thinking it was her husband, she did what came naturally. Not until her husband entered the room and asked her about a man he had seen walking out of the room did she realise that she had had sex with another man. The housewife, 40, then lodged a report at the Cukai police station at 5.30pm alleging she had been raped. Police later arrested the couple's friend, a 29-year-old labourer, who had been staying with them over the past two months. The woman said she went to bed in their Chuping home about 5am on Friday after making preparations for Hari Raya Aidilfitri celebrations. Her husband had gone to work earlier. About an hour later, she claimed, she felt a man next to her and she proceeded to make love to him. She claimed she did not see his face. When her 34-year-old husband walked into the room a little later, she said she was surprised to see him in his work clothes.The couple had allowed the suspect to stay with

Picture this...My sweet hubby lying on the couch. Now, this just beckons children for a wrestling match. I mean, dad doesn't just lay on the couch for nothing, right? Sure enough, Super Spud comes diving across the coffee table to power-drive dad. Only problem is his aim is a bit off and his head collides with dad's nose. Dad is in colossal amounts of pain. Spud grabs his own head with great shouts of, "Ouch!!! You hurt my nipple!" Immediately, the whole family bursts into fits of laughter, but Spud can't figure out why. He keeps saying, "Why are you laughing? My nipple really hurts!" All the while holding the side of his head. Once I am able to catch my breath a bit, I ask Spud to point to the location of his pain. He points to his TEMPLE. I correct him and he says, "Oh yeah, I knew it was something like that!"

The potential health risks associated with untreated indigestion are well documented, but acid reflux pain should serve as a strong reminder of those suffering from it, that they need to do something to correct the condition. The acid reflux pain is usually caused by stomach acid being refluxed into the esophagus and irritating its lining. It is typically a severe burning sensation that will seldom subside on its own. The use of antacid tablets or other over-the-counter medication can often lessen the severity of the acid reflux pain but if left to linger for days it is strong enough to burn a hole through the lining of the esophagus. Easing past the lower esophageal sphincter is common with acid reflux, but when it flows continually upwards and makes it way through the upper esophageal sphincter, the pain in the throat may spread into the larynx and can cause acid reflux pain to radiate in to the ears. It is not uncommon for those with indigestion to experience such severe acid reflu

Ever get a record to find out that this band's name is named like the other band's name? I'll explain...So, I picked up this album by Leeds, UK band Stateless, thinking it was a new record by Swedish Electronica/Nu-jazz artist Stateless, whose first one I liked quite a bit. But it wasn't! D'oh! (Actually I didn't even realize they were different until I did some reading, because I rarely check the liner notes, because I know it all, don't I?) Lucky for me, however, the British dudes are pretty good, too. They have a vox/bass/drums/dj/keyboards line-up, and if forced to make lame comparisions, I'd say they sound sorta like Coldplay meets DJ Shadow, which I know sounds a bit scary, but don't be afraid! Check it out for yourself...Stateless - Prism #1I'd say they're just good enough to not catch on in the States, because most people in the States prefer shit music. That's a compliment to the band, btw... :P

I've traveled a little in my life, not enough that I'd call myself 'well traveled', but more than the average person. In the course of my travels I've often been mistaken for different nationalities. This is mainly because I'm in that particular country and people just assume I'm from there. It's not that big a deal when the people don't speak the same language as you, as you can't really notice accents unless you speak their language really well, so generally you just shrug, smile and speak louder and slower.So the times I've been mistaken for being a different nationality, people have guessed that I'm:1.

Promotional fax mistaken for bomb threatASHLAND, Mass. - A faulty bank fax printed a message that was misinterpreted as a bomb threat Wednesday, leading authorities to evacuate more than a dozen neighboring businesses and a day care center.The branch manager of the Bank of America called police about 10 a.m. after receiving a fax containing images of a lit match and a bomb with a fuse, bank spokesman Ernesto Anguilla said.But text explaining the fax was an internal bank promotion failed to transmit. The missing text included the phrases "The countdown begins" and "Small business commitment week June 4-8," according to a copy circulated by police."The fax machine malfunctioned, so a partial image came through that looked somewhat suspicious," Anguilla said.Fears also arose because the branch received a suspicious package delivered by a customer around the same time, police said. A State Police bomb squad searched the bank branch and checked out the package, which was a delivery of docum

This past weekend, my fabulous sister-in-law (to be referred to as Anora) treated me to a belated birthday pedicure treatment at a local spa. We laugh because my birthday was in July and the two of us just couldn't get our act together to make this happen until now!The pedicure was fantastic! We both enjoyed an hour and a half of pampering that only a pricy salon can offer. I almost feel sorry for the woman that got stuck doing my feet. Okay, so maybe my feet weren't quite this bad, but they sure felt like it. Take a peek at my salon experience.Salon employee/Janeen: Put your feet in this bowl of warm water. Is it too hot?Me: Not at all, just right! ((gritting my teeth as I adjust to the near-scalding temperature of the water.)) Oh, what's this on the bottom of the bowl?Janeen: Those are marbles. Me: Fabulous! ((note to self, go buy some marbles for home use))Janeen: Okay, I'll take your right foot now, please. Oh, my. Did you trim your nails yourself today?Me: Well, I trimmed them
