Mark Murphy Wants Favre Back

Green Bay Packers president and CEO Mark Murphy said he wants Brett Favre back in the Packers family.  Favre was the starting quarterback for the Packers from 1992 to 2007 before he retired and un-retired and retired and un-retired. After 2007, he was traded to the Jets where he played for two seasons before signing with the Vikings. Favre helped the Packers win a Super Bowl, while earning three MVP awards. Favre has said that he holds no hard feelings for the way he was 'treated' by the Packers in 2007. He is officially retired as of now.

Fake Nuns Smuggle Cocaine

Three women who were pretending to be nuns were arrested in Colombia. They were suspected of having cocaine in their habits. They attempted to sneak through security at Gustavo Rojas Pinilla International Airport in San Andres. All three women were carrying two kilos of cocaine. The women are facing charges of trafficking, manufacturing, and the bearing of narcotics, according to police. Police said, the drugs would be distributed in more than 60 thousand doses. Say no to drugs, say yes to tacos. Vote for Pedro.

Jason Collins Comes Out

Jason Collins, the 12 year pro basketball player, is the first active, major league athlete to announces he's gay. Over the last few months, there has been much speculation over what league would have the first gay athlete. That stemmed from sketchy questions being asked to college football players during the NFL combine. From the moment Collins announced he was gay, he received nothing, but support from other NBA players and major icons in the media, including Kobe Bryant, Jason Kidd, and Ellen Degeneres. Jason Collins' twin brother, Jarron, has tweeted about the support his brother and his family were receiving, which is a very good step in the right direction for equal rights for everyone.

George Zimmerman's mother speaks out

Only a year after Trayvon Martin was shot, George Zimmerman is still awaiting trial on a second-degree murder charge. George Zimmerman supposedly shot out of self defense, killing the 17 year old. Zimmerman's mother says that the arrest was only made to please the masses, which is incredibly plausible. "April 11, 2012, will be forever remembered by the Zimmerman family as the day the justice system failed us as Americans, and as a consequence an innocent man was arrested for a crime he did not commit, solely to placate the masses," Gladys Zimmerman wrote.

Auschwitz Survivor Seeks Twin Brother

Menachem Bodner, a given name, is a 73 year old man who survived Auschwitz. He has a twin brother, but he hasn't seen him since they were in Auschwitz. Bodner's "number" is A 7733, while his brother's was A 7734. Bodner has posted a picture of him when he was 5 and a picture he thought was a family photo on the Internet. A genealogist proved the family photo was not his. Bodner, with the genealogists help, have discovered that he was born Eli Gottesman and he does have a twin brother named Jeno. They were both experimented on by the infamous Josef Mengele, who was known for his awful experiments on humans, and most notably, twins.

Sturgeon Bay Riots

Shortly after students arrived at Sturgeon Bay High School, multiple riots broke out in different sectors of the school. Many reports suggest that the Facebook pages, Sturgeon Bay Confessions and Sturgeon Bay High School Compliments, propelled the anger into full blown riots. Girls have been seen pulling hair and accusing other girls of going tanning. While that's going on, teachers are checking all lockers, backpacks, cars, and pockets due to some controversial posts involving drugs and alcohol. Southern Door High School and Gibraltar High School have made similar pages, but then they realized they didn't want to be anything like that train wreck of a school.

Brink of War

North Korea has recently cut off the military hotline with South Korea. That could mean nothing, or it could be the calm before the storm. Tensions are already high between the Korea's and just about everyone else in the world with all the threats they're dealing. The U.N. is expected to send a VERY strongly worded letter this time, to really let North Korea know how they feel. That's why we should go in and kill Kim Jong-Un. The guy is a nut.
