Deputies: 10-year-old girl arrested for kicking teacher's assistant

By Barbara Hijek November 7, 2011 08:55 AM

A Deltona elementary school student, age 10, was arrested after she allegedly kicked a teacher's assistant in the face, reports WESH News-2 in Orlando.

The student went into a rage over being put in timeout for being disruptive.

The saddest part: The child's guardians refused to come to the school, telling authorities they are unable to control her.

Suit: Vegetables stuck in workers undies before being served at upscale steakhouse

By Barbara Hijek November 7, 2011 08:44 AM

Naughty veggies, anyone?

This gives new meaning to veggie wedgies.

mug_aspargus.jpg

Kitchen workers at the Morton's of Chicago steakhouse in Boca Raton are accused of sticking raw vegetables in their undies before serving them to their customers, the website Jose Lambiet's GossipExtra.com reported, according to the South Florida Sun-Sentinel.

A sous-chef claimed in his harassment suit he saw a colleague at the restaurant "place stalks of asparagus inside his underwear, next to his anal/genital area in order to simulate his penis," then "serve that asparagus to Morton's unsuspecting paying customers."
