School fires unmarried teacher for being pregnant
Montana resident Shaela Evenson was a teacher at Butte Central Grade School, instructing sixth through eighth grade students in literature and physical education for nearly a decade. However, the Helena Diocese, which oversees the Catholic school, dismissed her last month. Why? Because, as The Montana Standard reports, Ms. Evenson is pregnant but not married.
Patrick Haggarty, Superintendent of Schools for the Roman Catholic Diocese of Helena, told the Standard, “Shaela made a willful decision to violate the terms of her contract. This happened as a result of her decision to violate the terms of her employment contract, and in so doing she’s disqualified from teaching at a Catholic school. It’s a sensitive issue and it’s unfortunate all around.”
Ms. Evenson isn’t going to take the firing without a fight. KXLF Channel 4 News spoke with an attorney the teacher has hired, Cincinnati-based Brian Butler. Butler told the station that his client, “plans to file a discrimination charge with the Federal Equal Opportunity Commission alleging the school violated her rights under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.”
Smiling student posts SELFIE with DEAD BODY
beaming student has posted a selfie with a dead body during a school trip to a science lab.The Alabama teen caused fury with her distasteful Instagram pic clearly showing a dead body in the background. The smiling youngster grins proudly as she poses with the cadaver while a person out of shot lifts the sheets. The body was being stored in a lab at the University of Alabama for medical research.
The snap has since been taken down and Clements High School are reportedly deciding what action should be taken against their student. WHNT News 19 reported pupils were explicitly told not to remove the sheets covering the bodies during the visit and mobile phones were also banned during the tour, which was aimed at the school's anatomy students. The station said a fellow classmate saw the post and showed it to family members who then contacted the school and tipped off local media. Karen Tucker, Limestone County School Board Director of Public Relations and Technology told WHNT News 19: "We are speaking to the University of Alabama Birmingham, they are understandably upset with this incident and we want to preserve our relationship with the university."
Why judge does not believe woman was duped into sleeping with boyfriend's boss?
SARNIA, Ont. — A man who slipped into a dark bedroom, pretending to be his employee to sleep with his girlfriend was acquitted of sex assault Thursday in a bizarre case.Court heard the men had likely come up with the rouse in a bar earlier in the evening in June 2012.
The woman testified that only when the boyfriend called her from where he was listening outside the bedroom door, her cellphone casting a pale light across the bedroom, did she realize who she was having sex with. Under cross-examination defence lawyer James Guggisberg had suggested to the woman it was preposterous that she did not realize the man was not her boyfriend from the start.
The boyfriend, who is taller, heavier and covered with tattoos, testified that he is not circumcised, unlike his now-ex-boss, and that he had a goatee at the time, while the other man was clean-shaven. She denied she was lying. She told the court the man had closed the door and only told her: “it’s me” before they started having sex, indicating he intended to deceive the woman, said assistant Crown attorney Nila Mulpuru. While it is plausible the woman did not realize it was not her boyfriend, Justice Mark Hornblower said the evidence left him with doubt, requiring dismissal of the charge. Hornblower described it as one of the most unusual sexual assault cases he had ever heard.
How a naked snow stunts go viral
WELLAND, Ont. — It just snowballed, though it might be bad for your health. A new 24-hour challenge — “Canadian version,” Mark Lucas, its creator, calls it — has Canucks filming themselves performing stunts outside in the snow in their underwear. Followed by a beer. When Lucas, 34, of Thorold, Ont., created the 24-Hour Challenge Facebook page with some friends a week ago, he had no idea how quickly its popularity would grow.
Some of the posted videos include nominees walking a dog, shovelling a driveway and even pumping gas, all wearing only their underwear. After celebrating the completion of the stunt by chugging a beer, participants must nominate three other people to do their own stunt, giving them 24 hours to complete a challenge and post a video.
At least one health unit is warning the challenge sends a bad message and could be dangerous for people with pre-existing health conditions. “We hate to be killjoys, but we have to say - this is not a good thing,” said Bill Hunter, Niagara Region manager of environmental health. “(It) only takes a drop of one or two degrees in body temperature to cause complications. “Lucas said testing the temperature limits of the human body was never the intention. “Doing a snow angel for 10 seconds is good enough for me.”
Why Bold NekNomination stripping video
A woman has STRIPPED down to her underwear before downing a can of lager in the middle of a supermarket, in the latest bizarre "NekNomination" video. Taking on the internet challenge, 19-year-old Rebecca Dagley is filmed by her friends as she walks into an Asda superstore in Leicester wearing a trench coat and high heels. But when she reaches the fruit and vegetable aisle, the brunette sheds her jacket to reveal stockings, suspenders and purple lingerie, before drinking a can of Stella in front of shocked shoppers.
As is the custom with the online craze, she then speaks to camera to nominate three more of her friends to down a pint in the most imaginative way possible. Speaking to the Leicester Mercury, she said: "I just found an aisle and tried to drink it before security came over." "People were just looking at me, like 'what on earth are you doing?' "I didn't want to do it at first but then I thought, I should just have fun." The NekNominate craze - thought to have originated in Australia - has come in for heavy criticism from alcohol awareness charities for promoting dangerous levels of binge drinking. It has already been linked to the deaths of two young men in Ireland, and people appear to be striving to find increasingly extreme ways of completing the challenge. But Rebecca dismissed those criticisms. She said: "Everyone will go as far as they want to go, nobody is forcing anyone to do anything - people don't even have to drink alcohol if they don't want to. "It's like anything in life; you have to be responsible and not stupid."
