Orange County woman who cut off husband's penis sentenced today
In Santa Ana, 50 year old Catherine Kieu was sentenced to life in prison for torture and aggravated mayhem in a case where she drugged her husband's food, tied him up and then awoke him before cutting his penis off with a ten inch knife. She then put his body parts into the garbage disposal. Doctors tried but were unable to surgically reattach his penis. She will be eligible for parole in only seven years.
A Pomona man spent ten days sleeping on a roach-infested mattress at the Bangkok Airport after he was refused permission to fly home. Apparently he'd been placed on the secret "no-fly" list. The existence of the list is not a secret, but whose names are on it is. He isn't the first to be marooned that way, but he was allowed to fly home today.
Outgoing L.A. Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa is touting his accomplishments over his two terms as mayor in a bus tour today. The new mayor, Eric Garcetti will take over officially on Monday. I'll have a report card for the departing mayor in tomorrow's daily blog.

Former Phillies catcher Darren Daulton currently hosts a talk-radio show on baseball. On Thursday, he announced that he has two brain tumors and will have surgery next week. Get well soon, Dutch.
A 96 year old woman who is a major fan of the Georgia Bulldogs football team got the thrill of a lifetime. She arrived thinking she'd won a tour of their facilities in a contest. While there was no contest, there was a tour. Better still, the team's star quarterback Aaron Murray conducted the tour.
When people say "stress kills" they aren't kidding. People who suffer from serious levels of stress are more than twice as likely to suffer a heart attack as those who do not suffer from stress.
Dan Cathy, president of Chick-Fil-A apparently prefers the taste of his foot in his mouth rather than his company's excellent tasting chicken. He tweeted his personal disapproval of the decisions by the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn part of the Defense of Marriage Act and to let stand a lower court ruling that declared Prop 8 unconstitutional. His tweet was quickly deleted and the company released a statement saying his tweet did not represent company policy. That's hard to swallow since he and his father own the company.
Real Housewives of Atlanta star Kim Zolciak is pregnant with her fifth child and is still smoking. She'll certainly get criticized for that.
