Several posters of President Barack Obama as Joker, Heath Ledger-style, with the caption “Socialism” have been showing up in Los Angeles and most recently in Atlanta. No one knows who is responsible for this mysterious “political statement”.

Golfer Tiger Woods and his caddy Steve Williams were involved in a very embarrassing situation when a fart was heard loud and clear (watch video below) on the 18th during the 2009 Buick Open, which Tiger won for the third time.

“I’ve played all around the world, and I’ve never seen a day like this,” Woods told the media. “This event has always been special, but today was something else.”

Tiger and Steve laughed off the fart incident but it’s interesting to note this isn’t the first time Tiger has sealed an event with a fart, having also farted when he won the Arnold Palmer invitational in March.

A 27 year-old woman from New York City, Trina Thompson, is suing the Monroe College, where she got her bachelor’s degree in information technology, because she can’t find a job accusing Monroe’s Office of Career Advancement for not providing her with the leads and career advice it promised.

Monroe College spokesman Gary Axelbank said, “The lawsuit is completely without merit. The college prides itself on the excellent career-development support that we provide to each of our students, and this case does not deserve further consideration.”

Trina, who lives with her mother Carol Thompson, is seeking the $70,000 she spent on tuition. The family is going through a difficult time and Trina’s student loans are coming due. The mother Carol says, “We’re going to be homeless, and we’ll still have a student loan to pay.”

British tabloid News of The World has published in its printed edition (not online!) shocking photos of the bedroom where Michael Jackson died from a heart attack on June 25 (photos below).

This is the real room where Dr. Conrad Murray tried to resuscitate the King Of Pop for 25 minutes, which was sealed by authorities and treated as a crime scene. This second-floor bedroom was reportedly used by Dr. Murray to store medical supplies and where Diprivan (Propofol) was also found.

Here are the details from the scene, according to NOTW:

There on the floor at the bottom of the bed is a used AMBU BAG – a manual pump device used by medics to force air through a mask and into the lungs to keep an unconscious patient alive.
This was part of Dr Murray’s kit and the INSTRUCTION LEAFLET is alongside.

The see-through curl of plastic tubing linking the bag and mask appears to have collected pools of liquid. Parts of the tube have a red or brown discoloration. This is likely to be the result of expelled moisture in the breath and evidence the device HAS been used.

On a wheeled trolley to the left of the photo (which we are not publishing online but which is available in our printed edition) is more medical equipment.

ALCOHOL PREPARATION PADS used for cleaning the skin before drug injections, a roll of SURGICAL TAPE and a box of disposable LATEX GLOVES. On the bedside table is a large landline PHONE. It isn’t known if this is the one used by bodyguard Alberto Alvarez to dial 911 when his boss failed to respond to Murray’s efforts.

Abandoned on the bed is a string of Middle Eastern-style PRAYER BEADS, worn by Jackson around his neck and clearly visible in our picture. “There’s a mystery around who gave them to Michael but he loved to wear them,” said our insider.

Bizarrely, what looks just like an INCONTINENCE PAD sits in the centre of the bed, possibly covering blood or other stains. The length of blue ribbon alongside is believed to have been used as a MAKESHIFT TOURNIQUET, to bind the star’s arm and find a vein so drugs could be administered. The duvet is pulled to one side and, incredibly, there is still a slight DENT made by dying Jacko’s head in the plumped-up pillow, up against the ornate gold-painted headboard.

Oddly, a tube of Crest TOOTHPASTE lies apparently unopened on the bed. An insider said this had no relevance to the resuscitation, but Jacko, 50, was obsessed with dental hygiene and had tubes of the stuff all over the house.

On the side table is also a half-drunk bottle of ORANGE. The insider told us: “It was MJ’s. He was trying to stay healthy.”

On the shelf above there’s a near-full bottle of FIJI MINERAL WATER, the fashionable brand favored by celebrities. Another almost-empty bottle is on the glass-topped trolley nearby. Almost hidden under the duvet you can see the legs of a TOY DOLL that usually sat on top of the bed.

Alongside is a DVD or CD. Back on the bedside table sits a SPECTACLES CASE. Both the star and Dr Murray wore glasses but our source said: “Jacko had many pairs, and their cases, lying about all over the house.”

Out of view of the camera, according to our insider, are oxygen bottles used to treat the star as part of his heavy-duty prescription drugs regime.

These shocking photos of Michael Jackson’s Deathbed, where Dr. Murray tried to resuscitate him (first on the bed, then on the rug-covered wooden floor), were taken the day after he died by a family insider at his rented mansion in North Carolwood Drive, Los Angeles.

Singer Jessica Simpson, who recently broke up with her boyfriend Tony Romo, said she was not an “Indian giver” when asked if she would be taking back the fancy boat she gave him just a couple of weeks before the split.

This comment caused outrage amongst Native Americans because it was used in a derogatory manner as a stereotype of Native people as ones who give and then take back. Jacqueline L. Pata, executive director of the National Congress of American Indians, considers this is “a good chance to educate people not to stereotype Native Americans by using a comment this is both incorrect in the way most people use it, and culturally insensitive to Native people.”

Jessica and her sister Ashlee Simpson were out on a girls’ dinner date last night. When questioned about the incident, Jess retorted “I am Indian, alright?” That is the lamest apology we have ever heard. Tony is now enjoying his new boat with girl toy Natalie Smith (photos here)!

The remains of Captain Michael Scott Speicher, who was a US navy pilot and the first American combat casualty in the Gulf War when his jet was shot down back in 1991, were finally found in Iraq after eighteen years.

The mystery is solved with a positive identification of the remains, buried in the desert and located after officials received new information from an Iraqi citizen about a crash.

It now appears that Captain Speicher was buried by nomadic Bedouin tribesmen close to where his F/A-18 Hornet fighter jet was shot down during a combat mission on January 17, 1991, the first night of Operation Desert Storm. His plane crashed in a remote, uninhabited wasteland. It is believed he was shot down by a missile fired from an Iraqi aircraft, probably a MiG-25.

Family spokeswoman Cindy Laquidara said relatives learned on Saturday that Speicher’s remains had been found. “The family’s proud of the way the Defense Department continued on with our request” to not abandon the search, she said. “We will be bringing him home.”

The 33 year-old Captain left a wife, Joanne Speicher, and two children. Captain Speicher was initially declared dead but the lack of remains, and claims by some Iraqis over the years to have seen him in captivity, led officials to change his status to “missing in action” and later “missing-captured”.
