Rapper Snoop Dogg took to Twitter this Independence Day to post an American flag and salute veterans and fallen… shoulders?

Sure, it was probably just an innocent typo or auto-correct mishap. As reported here earlier, Snoop Dogg has been busy today.

Like this follower, we’ll just assume he meant soldiers and add our names to the salute.

@SnoopDogg Yaay! That's the Truth! Salute and Honor the Men & Women Who have Fought On The Front Lines! And all those that have fallen!

Occupy Chicago’s #TakeTheSpring hashtag is under assault by a spambot

http://twitter.com/#!/OccupyChicago/status/188636169624498176

The Occupy Chicago protestors are getting down to serious business today. Lots of teach-ins, panel discussions, and workshops will take place throughout the Windy City to “create dialogue” and “TakeTheSpring” (whatever that means).

As usual, the Occupy protestors are using Twitter and other social media to organize and spread the word. Just one glitch: Someone or something — presumably some kind of bot pretending to be beautiful young women — is clogging up #TakeTheSpring with spam:

Brady, who also owns the Pheasant, told the Irish Independent: “When I saw him, he was lying there stone cold on the ground and his face was in ribbons.

“My first thought was that ‘this guy is after getting the **** knocked out of him’, while my girlfriend said it must have been a hit and run.”

Brady claimed the man later came round and tried to blackmail him.

The pub owner said the man asked for €50 for a taxi, and that when Brady said no the would-be-criminal threatened to burn his pub down and said he would tell the police Brady had beaten him up.

5. Brady added:


When the Gardaí picked him up, he started claiming that I attacked him. He was still telling them that in the station when I came in with the footage of him getting knocked out by his own brick.

You should have heard the Garda laughing when they saw the video. They were in stitches. Credit to them, they were straight out when we called and found the guy within minutes.

6. The Garda told the Irish Independent the incident was being investigated.

John Luke and Sadie Robertson share faith at Connect student conference

http://twitter.com/#!/bosshogswife/status/416966374586863616

Phil Robertson obviously got the lion’s share of attention this month for his comments to GQ magazine, but he’s not the only Robertson speaking out about his beliefs. Don’t expect much press coverage of John Luke and Sadie Robertson, who on Saturday shared their faith at the Connect student conference in Sevierville, Tenn.
