    Challengers to California Governor Gavin Newsom are lining up as a petition to recall the Democrat closes in on the number of signatures it needs to trigger an election. The RecallGavin2020 campaign now has 1.4 million signatures. It needs almost 1.5 million—1,495,709, or 12 percent of the votes cast in the last election for governor—to succeed. Those behind the campaign have until mid-March to reach their target. There have been several previous attempts to recall Newsom, but this is the first that has come close to succeeding. "I'm in. Without question," Cox tweeted on Tuesday. Former San Diego Mayor Kevin...

    Here at Wrecked Exotics, we've seen our share of crazy drivers, but even we were taken aback when an anonymous tipster let us in on what is surely the most insane exotic car owner in the world.

We of course would be honored to shake the hand of the man who, despite being involved in some horrible wrecks, has managed to walk away from each one AND still have...

I certainly had not written much about her. The birth of her baby the previous September was not that interesting. The death of her grown son was, but not that much. He wasn’t a celebrity. She was a Grade D personality, a buffoonish comic strip, a Marilyn Monroe pretender.

    Chemical Ali's palace 'wrecked by looters' By Vanessa Allen, PA News, near Basra 03 April 2003 It was a potent symbol of the fall of a corrupt regime – the play palace of Chemical Ali, looted by the people he was sent to govern. A smashed photograph lay in the entrance hall, the faces ripped out but clearly showing Saddam Hussein and one of his generals, perhaps his cousin, the man dubbed Chemical Ali for his atrocities against the Kurds. At the bottom of his once opulent swimming pool lay the proof that this was the general's house – a...
