In what could well end up becoming the first in a number of similar legal defeats for State Farm insurance, a federal jury in Mississippi has charged the company with fraud relating to a 2005 claim made in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina.

As ABC News first reported in 2006,two former State Farm employees, the Rigby sisters, came forward with accusations of having witnessed an epidemic of fraud at the company's offices in Biloxi and Gulfport. According to the two, company supervisors instructed staff to "bury" or modify damage reports to avoid payouts.

Even worse, the claim which was the subject of the recent court case had been hidden in a special file with a note reading "Put in Wind File. DO NOT Pay Bill. DO NOT discuss."

The recent charges pertain to one single case, in which State Farm reduced its liability by claiming that damage to a home was caused by flooding rather than high winds. Evidence provided by the Rigsby sisters proved that the company filed a false report in order to avoid paying the homeowner instead of the federal government's National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP).

Another toxic water tank at the Fukushima Daichii power plant is likely leaking, the national atomic energy agency says, bringing the total defective tanks to three of a total seven. The tanks were built to store contaminated water.

The new leak was detected in pool No.1 while water from the leaking pool No.2 was being transported, according to the Nuclear Regulation Authority. The water transfer has been halted.

The plant's operator Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO) indicated they were "losing faith" in temporary storage pits for the radioactive water, but did not have anywhere else to put it.

"We can't move all the contaminated water to above ground [tanks] if we opt not to use the underground reservoirs. There isn't enough capacity and we need to use what is available," Tepco general manager Masayuki Ono explained at a news conference.

Someone recently posted an older article by Fox News about a burglary and arrest. One has to wonder how the article from March 2012 about the arrested homeowner would have been reported if our Constitutionally-protected Free Press was in place. While Homer Wright was simply defending himself, his wife and his home against burglary, this Army Veteran was arrested. Why? Because Chicago doesn't allow guns...So, what's Mr. Wright supposed to do, let the burglar pilfer through his stuff while waiting for the cops? And, before you read the article and tell me, "well, it says the burglar was only after alcohol," does it really matter what he was after?

Don't we have a constitutional right to protect ourselves? More law officers are telling us they may not be able to respond quickly because of budget cuts or other issues. Does it really matter how quickly they respond? Why can't we take the responsibility for our own protection? By the way, the burglar had been "arrested at least 13 times since 2009." Yet, whose photo accompanies the article and what was reported FIRST in this misguided article? Mr. Wright's and that he "was arrested because he had two previous weapons convictions..." Mr. Wright was treated like a criminal, not only by the police, but by the mainstream press, as well.

At least 14 people were wounded in an apparent stabbing attack on a Houston-area college campus Tuesday, authorities said.

The attack about 11:20 a.m. on the Lone Star Community College System's campus in Cypress sent at least 12 people to area hospitals, including four people taken by helicopter in critical condition, according to Cy-Fair Volunteer Fire Department spokesman Robert Rasa. He said several people refused treatment at the scene and all the wounds were consistent with stabbing.

The Harris County Sheriff's Department confirmed at least 14 people were wounded and spokesman Thomas Gilliland said authorities have one suspect in custody.

Parties to be held across the UK including in Trafalgar Square, scene of poll tax riots

While many were mourning the passing of Margaret Thatcher, others were planning celebrations for the day of her funeral. Many have called for a pre-funeral gathering at Trafalgar Square on Saturday to mark her death with revelry.

Facebook pages were linking to a leftwing site where a party to mark Thatcher's death had been proposed since 2004, urging people to turn up from 6pm on Saturday in Trafalgar Square, where the most violent poll tax riots took place in 1990.

The post on the leftwing website Indy Media calls for people to gather on the first Saturday after Thatcher's death. It states: "We all know it can't be long now - and when Margaret Thatcher dies its party time! On the first Saturday after Margaret Thatcher dies, Class War is calling a mass party to start at 6pm, in Trafalgar Square, scene of the most famous riot against her policies! Whether or not you want to reminisce about the good old days of rioting against the poll tax, to toast old friends who fought Thatcherism, or just want to celebrate the death of the most reviled woman in Britain, we hope to see you there. Bring your champagne, fireworks, party clothes and yourselves!"

A former Tennessee politician was arrested and charged with indecent exposure after he allegedly masturbated out his car window while driving 90 mph on Interstate 26 earlier this year. Apparently this is not a new multi-tasking endeavor for the former Mount Carmel vice mayor - the charges mirror complaints made him against him several years ago that were never fully investigated. And now he's facing up to all of them.

William Lee Blakely was charged with one count of indecent exposure after a female motorist alleged that he "fondled himself" and made obscene gestures while they drove next to one another on the highway.

Now that he's been arrested for the charges, several women have come out to testify about similar stories in the past. "It seems that every victim would tell the same story. But I knew all the victims did not know each other," Kingsport Police Detective Terry Christian told WJHL.

According to each of the women testifying, Blakely's high-speed masturbation super fun time started out the same: he'd wave to get the drivers' attention, escalating to a honk, and then partially crossing over into their lanes.

He went from house to house in the village at dawn, cold-bloodedly gunning down his mother, his son, a 2-year-old cousin and 10 other neighbors. Terrified residents said if a police patrol car hadn't shown up, they all would have been dead.

Police said they knew of no motive yet in the carnage Tuesday that left six men, six women and a child dead in Velika Ivanca, a Serbian village 50 kilometers (30 miles) southeast of Belgrade.

After the rampage, police said suspect Ljubisa Bogdanovic, a 60-year-old who saw action in one of the bloodiest sieges of the Balkan wars, turned his gun on himself and his wife as authorities closed in. Both were in grave condition at a hospital in the Serbian capital.

In the small lush village surrounded by fruit trees, the suspect's older brother Radmilo broke down in tears, unable to explain why the massacre had happened.

"Why did he do it? ... I still can't believe it," he said sobbing, covering his face with his hands. "He was a model of honesty."

The jobs recovery is a complete and total myth. The percentage of the working age population in the United States that had a job in March 2013 was exactly the same as it was all the way back in March 2010. In addition, as you will see below, there are now more than 101 million working age Americans that do not have a job. But even though the employment level in the United States has consistently remained very low over the past three years, the Obama administration keeps telling us that unemployment is actually going down.

In fact, they tell us that the unemployment rate has declined from a peak of 10.0% all the way down to 7.6%. And they tell us that in March the unemployment rate fell by 0.1% even though only 88,000 jobs were added to the U.S. economy. But it takes at least 125,000 new jobs a month just to keep up with population growth. So how in the world are they coming up with these numbers? Well, the reality is that the entire decline in the unemployment rate over the past three years can be accounted for by the reduction in size of the labor force. In other words, the Obama administration is getting unemployment to go down by pretending that millions upon millions of unemployed Americans simply do not want jobs anymore. We saw this once again in March. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, more than 600,000 Americans dropped out of the labor market during that month alone. That pushed the labor force participation rate down to 63.3%, which is the lowest it has been in more than 30 years. So please don't believe the hype. The sad truth is that there has been no jobs recovery whatsoever.

If things were getting better, there would not be more than 101 million working age Americans without a job.

So exactly where does that statistic come from? Well, the following explains where I got that number...

According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, there are 11,742,000 working age Americans that are officially unemployed.

A man in a Cookie Monster outfit was arrested in Times Square and accused of pushing 2-year-old Samay Kurada.

Osvaldo Quiroz-Lopez, 33, from Queens, N.Y., was charged with endangering a child, reckless endangerment, and aggressive begging in a public place, according to police.

"Even without my permission, he just comes and picks up Samay," Samay's mother, Parmita Kurada, from Stamford, Conn., told ABC affiliate WABC.

After Kurada's son posed for a picture with the costumed character, Quiroz-Lopez allegedly cursed and screamed at Kurada, while her husband left them to go to an ATM to tip Quiroz-Lopez for the photo.

The situation escalated when Quiroz-Lopez apparently pushed the stroller and shoved the toddler.
