"MOM! I want my own Fight Club!"
Police are investigating claims parents have organised after-school fights between Northland teenagers to settle playground disputes.
The latest claim comes after a spike in the number of brawls at secondary schools in Whangarei.
That has been partly driven by a trend to capture the "best fight" on cellphone video and post it on the internet.
In the last month police have been notified of two fights organised by parents and caregivers of girls aged 13 and 14 in the Whangarei area as a way of sorting out differences.

Chicken crackdown in Newburgh!
Joyce Kyles knocks on the door of the house, and a woman answers.
"Good morning, hi," says Kyles, of Newburgh Animal Control. "We hear you have chickens."
The woman denies it but grants permission for a search of her backyard. Kyles is joined on this mission by Melissa Veraldo of Blooming Grove Humane Society and Deputy Gina Sangricoli, an animal cruelty investigator for the Orange County Sheriff's Office. Together, the three have begun a route across Newburgh in search of chickens. It's against city law to keep chickens, and the women have a list of a dozen addresses where they suspect people are harboring illegal birds.

Diego Maradona needs a lot of salad and bidets for his World Cup team
Argentina manager Diego Maradona asked the authorities to install two new bidet toilets for him at the team's 2010 World Cup training base in South Africa.
The people in charge were then asked to carry out an emergency remodelling of the legendary forward's bathroom to make the necessary changes to meet his "high standards".
The manager of the High Performance Centre in Pretoria, Colin Stier, maintained that the request from Maradona had culminated in two whole bathrooms being changed.

George Lopez and his wife's kidney are cheating
The National Enquirer is reporting that comedian George Lopez has joined the cheaters' club.
The rag says that the late-night host, 49, has been engaging in affairs with paid escorts. One of them, a Tampa Bay woman only identified as Tiffany, said she has the texts to prove it.
This is irony. He is one of Sandra Bullock's best friends.
More irony: His wife Ann Serrano gave him a kidney in 2005.

If this doesn't bring LeBron to New York, nothing will
Unlike the New York media, the Scores gentlemen's club in New York (the website's surprisingly safe for work) and general manager Ed Norwick have stepped up and made an offer that might be hard for LeBron refuse. Because free lap dances for life is the gift you get the person who has everything.
"I'm tired of going to Knicks games and ... well, going to Knicks games." Norwick told FanHouse over the phone. "This is serious. He'd have open access to Scores -- I'll even bring him in through a private entrance if he wants."
Norwick confirmed that James would have unlimited access to the ladies of Scores for the rest of his life once a contract with the Knicks was signed, pointing out that the lifetime access " ... might push him over the top ... if it's just about the money he wouldn't come [to New York]."
Norwick also told FanHouse that additionally, James would also get a lifetime of complimentary dinners at Robert's Restaurant, which would allow him to "come in and have a girl feed him topless ... or get a lap dance between courses."

Phillies fans being Phillies fans
A police officer used a Taser gun to apprehend a fan who ran onto the field during a Phillies game Monday night, and the team and the police are investigating whether it was an appropriate use of force.
The fan, wearing a baseball cap, red T-shirt and khaki shorts, hopped a fence and scurried around the outfield, eluding two security officers in the bottom of the eighth inning against the St. Louis Cardinals. One officer used a Taser and the fan went down in a heap. Several Phillies placed gloves over their faces and appeared to be stifling laughter at the wild scene.
Phillies spokeswomen Bonnie Clark said the police department is investigating the matter and discussing with the team whether using the stun gun was appropriate.

"Bad News Bears" was not an instructional videos
A video posted on YouTube that shows 10-year-old hockey players in Humbolt, Sask., posing with cans and bottles of beer has resulted in the suspension of an assistant coach and a parent who acted as the team's treasurer.
Lorrie Heggie of Sask-Can hockey said the incident was a serious case of misjudgment.
"I've talked to the guy and I can't for the life of me figure out what he was trying to gain, whether he was just being a silly dad trying to have some goofy fun, or whether he had some purpose to it," said Heggie.
"We've indefinitely suspended the individual that brought the beer into the dressing room and we've indefinitely suspended the fella that took the video."
The video, filmed by the treasurer dad, shows the young boys being posed with the alcohol and being prompted to hold it up to the camera.
At one point as he asks a boy to say hi to the camera he tells the players they're "going to be on YouTube."
"OK, take a drink," one of the adults in the room prompts a 10-year-old.
"No," says the boy, who appears uncomfortable.
"Here we are in the locker room, young men just having a beer," narrates the camera operator. "Look at that. Love it....the boys are enjoying a fine beer after a hard game."
The video has since been removed from YouTube.
