In Oklahoma 3 bodies were found in 8 foot deep grave while workers were digging up a septic tank. The bodies were Wendy Camp, 23; her daughter Cynthia Britto, 6; and Lisa Kregear, 22. They had disappeared on May 29, 1992. Police have arrested the man, Grover J. Prewitt Jr, who used to own the land they were found on and who sprinkled black pepper on the grave to kepp the smell down. Back in 1992 they hired a man to dig a hole for a septic tank but before they put it in, the woman went missing and the hole was filled without a tank. Police say that his mom was also involved with the murders and and helped him cover it up. She died in 2011.

Delaware Voting On Same-Sex Marriage
There are 10 states that allow same-sex marriage in the United States today and on Tuesday there will be a bill will be taken up to see if Delaware will become the 11th. The governor Jack Markell vowed to sign the bill if it got passsed by the Senate. There has been many recent victories for gay marriage, and last Friday, Rhode Island signed the bill to allow it. Last November, Maine, Maryland and Washington did the same. However many southern states continue to believe that a marrige union is strictly between a man and a woman therefore this rise in change will not continue down there. The other states that allow same-sex marriage are, Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire, Connecticut, New York and Iowa.

Abortion Clinic Kept The Baby's Foot
Dr. Kermit
Gosnell's clinic was accused of performing abortions that were
done illegally because of the fact that the mothers were too far along. During
the investigations, they found several baby feet in a jar. One of the mothers
of the baby foot came out to speak about her decisions about terminating her
pregnancy. She said that she was specifically referred her to this doctor
because she was too far along. That means that other abortion centers knew what
was going on and did not say anything and actually added on to this problem.
The other mothers of the feet were also contacted and looked for.

87 Killed In Building Collapse
In Bangladesh an 8 story factory building collapsed, trapping over four hundred people. Rescuers, including volunteers, firefighters, and soldiers, worked all night trying to free people but, 87 people were initaially killed in the collapse. They used flashlights and whistles to find the people. The building was in very bad shape, with cracks all over. The collapse started about an hour after the factory opened. One worker who survived said that, "It collapsed all of a sudden. No shaking, no indication. It just collapsed on us." It turns out that only 3 floors of the building were built legally and the building had no emergency exits. Many are still in critical condition and the civilians and familys are hoping that the number of deaths doesn't climb.

New Venezuela President
In Venezuela on Sunday, a new president was elected. It was a very narrow and very close election. Nicolas Maduro is the new leader of Venezuela by about 300,000 votes. He is seen as the last president's succsessor. Maduro political plans and socialist ideas are very simular and based off of Chavez. The margin of the voting was so close, it was 50.8 percent to 49.1 percent. The main reason why he won was because his strategy was sympothy.

Puppy Lives After Being Tied To Train Tracks
Earlier this month a 10 month old poodle terrier as tied to train tracks in California by a 78 yeaar old. Luckly the tran engineer saw the old man walk away from the tracks and he was able to apply the breaks and stop in time. Officers arrived at the scene and untied the dog and detained the man. The old man did this because his family did not want the dog anymore. The man was very senile and didn't know what he was doing because of his old age so no charges were put into order. The puppy on the otherhand was cleaned up and put up for adoption. They decided to call him, Banjo.

Meth Lab in White House
Yesterday morning a terrifying discovery was made by little Sasha Obama in the Presidents office. A giant million dollar meth lab was being run by our leader. The meth was made by the worlds leading scientists from all over the world, including North Korea. They started to send scientists over to the White House because they figured out a way to make Meth actually better for your teeth instead of completly destroying it. Obama is secretly calling Meth, the new tooth paste. They plan on sending out the new Meth for children test trials in Alabama and Texas because they are the ones who have the worst teeth in America.

Jedi Weddings
For the people who think Star Wars is a Religion, you can now get married by a Jedi. In the Free Church of Scotland call it the Temple of Jedi order. Although in the movies Jedi can not marry anyone, people dont care about that. This Jedi Religion has spread very fast throughout many parts of Europe over the past few years. Other Religions do not like this idea at all. The Flat Earth Society is willing to fight for the bill to be passed so that anyone can be married by a Jedi and have the weeding that they dream of.

RAPEFRUIT: Good for Every Meal
The newspaper Free Press created some bad publicity from their layout headline; "RAPEFRUIT: Good for every meal". This imediantly caught the publishers attentions but it was far to late to change it once it was out. It was of course meant to be GRAPEFRUIT, but the 1000s of papers sold did not say that at all. Not only was it seen in the papers, but soon went viral on Reddit and Twitter. It was seen over 10,000 times in less than an hour. 100's of people commited and passed it along. The innocent recipe for grapfuit, became an ad for sexual assult.

Beer Power
An Alaskan Brewing Company is going to try to use the beer they produce as an energy recourse. They will use the used grain to power most of their functions in their factory. By doing this, they will reduce 70% of their energy costs. They use an expensive 1.8 million dollar broiler system that is supposed to turn the grain into steam power. It will save the company 450,000 every year. They are doing all of this not to just save money, but to save resources and recycle. Most of their good used grain just goes to wast but now it has turned into "Beer-powered Beer".

The surgery will be too expensive for the adoption center to pay. Luckly, Facebook donors funraised the money for this kitty and Harvey went through a succsessful operation. All together the donors raised about 5000 for him in a matter of two days. He will recover in a few months and will be put up for adoption after he is all healed!

Baby Elephant Rescued
While looking for his mother a baby elephant got trapped in the bottom of a well in India. The baby elephant was only about 10 months old. He was stuck in there for over 12 hours until they were able to get him out with the help of a bulldozer. There was a hundred bystanders making sure he stayed alive and waiting for the bulldozer to arive. They got him out by making a ramp from the bulldozer and after he was freed he ran off in the forest and the people chased after him until he found his mother. The people were happy that they got him out before the larger family of elephants came and went looking for him because they would have destroyed the area and the crops.

Middle Finger Christmas Lights
In Louisiana a woman named Sarah Childs, put up a light
display baring the middle finger to her neighbors. The city and the police want
it to be removed however the judge has not made a ruling so the display should
stay for another week at least. The police had threatened her throughout the
holidays but she and the American Civil Liberties Union sued the city. There is
an order prohibiting city officials from interfering with the lights. She put
up the lights in the first place because she believed her neighbors stole her
dog. She also intends on keeping them up even though the holidays are over. She
will keep them up as long as she can.

Student Suspended for Racism
In western Wisconsin a 9th grade male student from Baldwin-Woodville High School
was suspended for putting a KKK symbols and a noose on an African American female’s
student’s desk. She was one of four African American students at the high
school. She is a foster child who had been made fun of for the two years but
nothing ever as terrible as this. The other students are now saying that she
had over-reacted to the incident. The boy who did it was only going to get 1
day suspension but after the NAACP contacted the school, he received a longer
suspension. The Principle of the school says that he is disappointed by the unacceptable
behavior, but he isn’t doing anything to prevent something like this from
happening again.
