"I can remember clearly the first time my parents had the talk with my brother and I [sic].And no, we aren’t talking the birds and the bees.My parents were trying to explain to their elementary-aged children that we were different and encounters with the police could be life or death.They told us to address officers like we were taught to speak to all adults: “Yes sir, no sir. Yes mam, no mam.”Don’t make sudden movements.Don’t put our hands in our pockets.Don’t look down or grab anything without permission first.Follow their commands without question.And for reasons I would only understand when I was an adult, it was more important for my brother to do all of these things right.We were taught to know our rights, but under no circumstances should we verbally defend ourselves—no matter what is said by an officer.This conversation was sparked after an officer pulled over my father just a block from our house. The officer asked my father multiple times what he did for a living to afford his car—he owned a construction company.Something similar would happen to my two black cousins and I [sic] years later as teenagers.The officer pulled us over as we were turning onto my street and asked what we were doing in that neighborhood.I told him I lived there. He asked us to get out of the car.At that moment, I remembered ‘the talk’ and the biggest thing my parents emphasized: these encounters may not always be fair but what is most important is to come home."Jessica Porter is a reporter with thedenverchannel.com. 1533

(AP) — Scamp the Tramp will never win a beauty contest. But he's won an ugly one.The bug-eyed, dreadlocked pooch took top honors Friday night at the 31st annual World's Ugliest Dog Contest.Owner Yvonne Morones of Santa Rosa, California, won an appearance with Scamp on the "Today" show, ,500 in cash, another ,500 to donate to an animal shelter — and a trophy the size of a Rottweiler."He's Scamp the Champ, no longer Scamp the Tramp," Morones told the Santa Rosa Press-Democrat after the victory. "I think the audience saw his beautiful spirit and everything he's given back to the community."Scamp makes volunteer visits to schoolchildren and a local senior citizens center.PHOTOS: The World's Ugliest Dog contestants and winners over the yearsThe street dog from Compton was rescued by Morones in 2014 after she spotted him on Pet Finder."It was on the way home that I knew I made the right choice," she said in a contest press statement. "There we were, two strangers in a car on the way home to a new start. Bob Marley was playing 'One Love' and I looked over and little Scamp was bobbing his head. It was like he knew he had found his forever home."Scamp beat out 18 other contestants who showed off their droopy tongues, bowed legs, perpetually confused looks and other strange attributes.The contestants got to walk the red carpet and preen for adoring fans at Sonoma-Marin Fairgrounds in the heart of Northern California wine country.The competition, as they say, was fierce.Second place went to Wild Thang, a Pekinese with beady eyes and a disturbing tongue, owned by Ann Lewis of Los Angeles.Third place went to Tostito, a Chihuahua whose damaged ears and droopy tongue make him look like he just stuck his foot into an electrical socket. Tostito, owned by Molly Horgan of Falmouth, Maine, also won the Spirit Award.This year's People's Choice Award went to Meatloaf, a bulldog mix with protruding teeth owned by Denae Pruner of Sacramento, California.Everyone knows ugliness is in the eye of the beholder and, to a dog lover, there is no such thing as an uncomely canine. Weird-looking, maybe. Appearance-challenged, perhaps. Or, as owners of ugly dogs like to say, "unique."Like Willie Wonka, a sweet-natured pit bull abandoned after he was discovered to have a genetic malady that left his legs so bowed he could barely walk.With a chuckle, publicist Christy Gentry said the competition wasn't just about being ugly."Judges are looking for special attributes like hanging tongues, slobber, drool (the more the better). Maybe unusual patches of skin or hair," she explained.Last year's champion, an English bulldog named Zsa Zsa, with a tongue that hung nearly to the ground, endeared herself to the judges when she sneezed and drooled all over them.Soon she was headed to New York for national TV appearances. Sadly, Zsa Zsa died about a year ago at age 9.Another previous winner, Nana, made the cover of an album by the Grateful Dead spinoff band Ratdog.Organizers say the contest isn't just skin-deep. It's also about bringing attention to the needs of rescue dogs.Most competitors were previously abandoned or rescued from kill shelters in the U.S., found abandoned on streets or seized from unscrupulous breeders."What we're really doing is we're showcasing dogs that have been rescued and adopted and brought into loving homes," Gentry said. "These are sort of spokesdogs for adoption." 3417

SAN DIEGO (KGTV) — A man was injured at a Valencia Park home after a small explosion that police say could be drug-related. San Diego Police responded to a home on the 700 block of Valencia Parkway and transported a 38-year-old man to the hospital. According to police, it appeared he was holding an object that exploded, causing shrapnel-type injuries to his face, chest, and arm. San Diego Fire-Rescue's Hazardous Materials team and a bomb squad were called to the scene. An investigation is ongoing as to what caused the explosion. Police said there was some evidence of materials that might be related to the manufacturing of narcotics found in the home, but could not confirm that was the cause of the blast. Police say it happened in the backyard area of the home. The man was alone at the time, though two children live in the house. Police did not clarify the man's relationship with the kids. The man has not been identified. He's expected to survive. No arrests were made. 994

"Attention all shoppers, associates and management... nobody should work here — ever.”That is what a 17-year-old former Walmart associate said over the intercom at a Walmart location in Grande Prairie in Alberta last week. Jackson Racicot recorded the moment he quit his job after more than a year with Walmart. He then shared the video with thousands on Facebook, prompting more than 1,000 shares and comments. Racicot told the Edmonton Journal that he had another job lined up before announcing to everyone in the store that he was quitting. He cited mistreatment of employees as to why he left the job. "Our managers will make promises and never keep them," Racicot told everyone in the store. "Management will try to save money every step of the way including cutting benefits and a full-time associate down to part-time even though he worked 40 plus hours a week."“I’ve been a loyal employee here for over a year and a half, and I’m sick of all the bulls----, bogus write-ups, and my job,” he added over the intercom. In a statement to the Edmonton Journal, Walmart said, "We are aware of the video circulating online and are disappointed by this incident. Respect for all individuals including our associates and customers is a core value at Walmart. We are looking into this matter and will address it internally as required.”Note: The video contains strong language 1426

"Caging and hurting golden retrievers is unethical and bad science, and it needs to end now," says Cromwell. "I join PETA in asking that these dogs be released for adoption immediately and spared further misery." 220
