Arrests Don’t Hamper Hiring At Texas Residential Facilities, Report Finds
Criminal histories of robbery and assault failed to raise red flags on employment applications for Texas facilities serving children with disabilities, a newspaper investigation found.
Records reviewed by The Texas Tribune and the Houston Chronicle indicate that Texas regulators didn’t flinch at approving applications for workers with histories of prostitution, theft, assault with a deadly weapon and reckless driving, among other charges, to work at a Houston facility called Daystar Residential, Inc.
Some criminal offenses — such as robbery or sexual assault — do prohibit individuals from working with children in Texas, but other crimes do not necessarily stand in an applicant’s way. It is unclear if any of the prospective employees were ever convicted of the crimes uncovered in their criminal background checks or if they were hired.

A review of background check letters the Department of Family and Protective Services sent Daystar Residential Inc. — a Houston-area facility that made headlines for forcing disabled girls to fight each other – shows dozens of potential workers were approved for hire by the state despite arrests ranging from prostitution to assault with a deadly weapon.
It’s unclear whether Daystar hired these workers; the state redacted all employee names. But their approval for employment raises questions about DFPS’ background check process as lawmakers meet in Austin today to discuss abuse and neglect within Texas’ 80 residential treatment centers for troubled kids.
…
In 2007, a DFPS licensing representative told Daystar that an applicant with a 2001 “credit card or debit card abuse” conviction “must not be retained in a position allowing contact with children while the request for risk evaluation is prepared and considered.” Yet a 2009 Daystar job applicant with a 1991 arrest for prostitution, 1993 and 1994 arrests for theft and a 2008 conviction for reckless driving sailed through the criminal background process.

April, when BP’s ‘Deepwater Horizon’ oil rig blew up, killing 11 crew member. The US Government are angry because the rig did not have proper measures installed, and had malfunctioning equipment that was not repaired, so thousands of barrels per day have since leaked from the snapped pipe beneath the destroyed oil rig. What the USA are also annoyed about is the fact that the rig did not have a cut off valve on the pipe, so that when the pipe to the rig snapped, oil was free to pump out into the Gulf of Mexico, even though US law does not say that such equipment is necessary, which is the case in all European oil drilling nations. The two nations, which for the past century have been about as separable, in the immortal words of Edward Blackadder, as “a Frenchman living next to a brothel”, have fallen out hugely over the disaster. It seems that somehow, us giving America a ‘thousand barrels per day’ of black gold, is wrong! I suppose it is quite like a homeless man throwing an oil drum full of pound coins at Bill Gates!

LeBron: No no. If I join this team, it’s my team.
Wade: Yeah. I mean, yeah….uhhhh…we’ll have to work out the logistics. I don’t have that big of an ego…Hold up (flashes championship ring to LeBron)…well whatever you know?
[End of Summit]
Reporters and journalists claim to have sources on where LeBron James is going. Who are these sources? The janitor who usually over hear people’s conversations? The cook? Trainer? Ticket salesperson? Miss Cleo? Grounds keeper Willy? The Russian? The Prostitute? An intern? This situation brings out the best in people arguing over sources all over the media. I love it! I love it because they are just as clueless as you and me. They brag that they have the inside track. Then bet the house in Las Vegas. Put your money where your mouth is.

Cop Fired for Forcing Sexual Favors
Published : Tuesday, 29 Jun 2010, 6:09 PM CDT
Adapted for Web by Tracy DeLatte, myFOXdfw.com
DALLAS – A Dallas cop was fired Tuesday for allegedly forcing a prostitute to give him sexual favors.
According to the Dallas Police Department, Officer Jeffrey Thorn was both terminated for “failing his probation as an officer with the department” and arrested for sexual assault.
Assistant Chief Floyd Simpson said on June 24 an undercover officer spotted his squad car idling in a high-crime area for a long time. A sergeant went over to investigate and caught him with a prostitute.
A police report states Thorn forced the woman to perform oral sex on him.
He was booked into the Lew Sterrett jail.
Thorn was relatively new to the force. He was hired in 2008 and had worked in the Southeast Patrol Division.

The strength and depth of the free agent class was created by a decision made by three of the top five picks in the 2003 NBA . James, Bosh and Wade signed deals after their rookie contracts expired giving them the option to become free agents on Thursday. They wanted the opportunity to assess whether their current teams would be worthy of their continued presence.
Combine the availability of such talent with the rise of social and interactive media, including Youtube, and that’s been a perfect storm for a free-agent frenzy.
Dozens of websites have sprung up including pleasedontgodwyane.com; savedwade.com; sendlebrontochicago.com; lebrontothemavs.com.
Rodrigo Gimenez, a Heat fan from Kendall, launched boshtomiami.com “to showcase to fans and Bosh himself how much we would like him to join powers with Dwyane Wade and help take the Miami Heat to the next level.”
Los Angeles Clippers fans held a parade for James, who has been offered a lifetime of free lap dances at a New York strip club if he plays for the Knicks.
