A 17-year-old Harrison High School senior is jailed without bond in Cobb County on child porn and child cruelty charges. Michael Cook allegedly hacked into girls' social media and e-mail accounts, found nude pictures of them, and uploaded them to an Internet porn site. One of the victims is just 14 years old. The girls were from various high schools.
A Roswell man is accused of flashing two teenage girls--and Roswell Police say his flashy car gave him away. Brett Williams allegedly approached the girls in a 2004 bright yellow Corvette. One girl reported that she was outside a Wal-Mart on Mansell Road when he asked her if she wanted a ride--and she noticed he was naked from the waist down. The second teen had similar allegations from when she was in a parking lot off Highway 9, so police believe that there may be other victims they have not heard from yet.
Atlanta Police are trying to locate a homeless man who goes by the street name "Cyrus." He is accused of attacking a waiter at the Flying Biscuit on Piedmont last Friday night. Ricky Scott alleges that "Cyrus" jumped him from behind, just minutes after a manager had asked him to leave because he'd been hanging around, asking for free food. Scott says the man bit his lip off. The man's real name is Carl Winston, and he has reportedly done a prison stint for stalking.
KISS news about women's health: ice cream and whole milk lattes may threaten breast cancer patients' chances of survivaL. Kaiser Permanente researchers report that one or more daily servings of high-fat dairy products increases breast cancer survivors' risk of dying in later years. No risk was found with low-fat products. It's the estrogen in milk fat that may be the problem. Whole milk is also associated with a higher mortality rate for men with prostate cancer.
A 60-year-old Dacula man allegedly killed his wife after she racked up $20,000 in bills from home shopping channels. A Gwinnett Police detective testified Egbert Courtney told him he "didn't know what came over him" but he grabbed his .38 from the night-stand and shot his wife twice in the back in the master bath of their home March 1. The case has been bound over for trial.
More trouble for Carnival and its cruise passengers. Some on board the Dream in St. Maarten are getting off and flying home after it ran into trouble with a backup generator, which caused interruptions to elevators--and toilets. The Carnival Legend is having problems with its propulsion system, so it's canceled its stop in Grand Cayman and heading home to Tampa.
Former WNBA star Chamique Holdsclaw pleads not guilty to felony charges in the alleged attack on a former girlfriend.

The head of the TSA sticks to his guns when it comes to knives on planes. John Pistole told a House hearing Thursday that allowing passengers to carry small pocket knives wouldn't pose any risk to the flight crew--at least those in the cockpit, which have fortified doors. A flight attendants union spokeswoman says, though, when they are trying to calm down unruly passengers 30,000 feet up in the air, adding even small knives to the situation is not a wise move.
If duck callers, Real Housewives, and Honey Boo Boo can get reality shows, then why not the vice president?

The idea apparently came from the weekly radio talks Biden recorded for constituents when he was in the Senate.
