Culture Buzz Today in jokes about abuse: The editors of Times Of India, the world's most circulated English language newspaper, apparently decided that this sparkling piece of wit about Chris Brown was a perfect fit for their funny pages.

A Wisconsin man arrested for allegedly punching his wife claims a poltergeist was responsible for the attack. Unfortunately even paranormal experts are calling foul.
Culture Buzz Oh, and she's facing six years in jail for 'resisting arrest and reckless behavior'. Well, I guess it is better than being beheaded by your misogynistic overlords.
Culture Buzz Lieutenant John Pike has already become a meme, so it only goes to follow that he'd have his own fake Twitter. SPRAAAAYYYYYY!!!!
Culture Buzz Man, these guys are fast. From last night's episode, The Poor Kid.
Culture Buzz Amazing photos of Occupy Wall Streeters as they tangle with the NYPD on the second month anniversary of the protest. Pockets of violence erupted as OWS, in what they're calling a “Day of Action,” attempted to march on the New York Stock Exchange.
Culture Buzz Jerry Sandusky, the former assistant football coach charged with 40 counts of child sex abuse, breaks his silence on the Penn State scandal with Bob Costas. And he unsurprisingly denies all the charges. “Horsing around” and “horseplay” are terms that are now forever tainted.
Culture Buzz On the heels of the revelation that the judge who freed Jerry Sandusky on bail was a donor to Sandusky's Second Mile charity, and the incredulous questions as to why she did not recuse herself, here are some more unanswered questions surrounding this awful scandal. Not to get into the realm of conspiracy theory, but there are some very disturbing “coincidences” surrounding this case.
Culture Buzz Jerry Sandusky in a 1987 NBC interview: “I enjoy being around children…I just have a good time with them.” “Everybody needs people to care for them, even if sometimes they don't want it.” *shudder*
Culture Buzz This is the horrific and damning story of Victim 2. From the Grand Jury Report into the alleged and repeated rape of young boys by former Penn State Assistant Coach Jerry Sandusky. The report identifies at least 8 victims, but Victim 2 is the case that directly involved Head Coach Joe Paterno and the upper echelons of the Penn State hierarchy. The abuse that's described, and the resultant cover up, is shocking.
Celebrity Buzz Wife beating chic. Lovely. Photographer Tyler Shields strikes again, this time with a battered Heather Morris from Glee. Spousal abuse has never been so sexy. Excuse me, that was a typo…I meant to say, “SPOUSAL ABUSE IS NEVER SEXY.”
Culture Buzz So guess what this guy was arrested for? Being a nerd. Michael Podniestrzanski was arrested in Florida for domestic battery after he started a fight with his cousin, Joshua Ross. We'll let the police report, which is barely concealing the arresting officer's bemusement, fill you in on the details.
Suffer the little people. What is it about movie violence against dwarves that makes it so funny?
A training dummy whose sole purpose is to take junk shots. It's possible to feel sympathy for a dummy.
Culture Buzz This crazy lady threw an innocent cat into a bin and briskly walked away, sending the internet into an uproar. Authorities are not taking action because no criminal offence was committed. UPDATE: Her name is Mary Bale, and she has apologized.

TMZ has obtained footage of former UFC superstar Roger Huerta engaging in a bloody street fight in Austin, Texas this weekend — against a man who appears to have socked a woman in the head.
Politics Buzz Are you guys ready to meet your new favorite Democratic nominee for lieutenant governor in Illinois?! Scott Lee Cohen, a pawnbroker, was arrested in 2005 for (allegedly!) sticking a knife to the neck of his 24-year old drunk prostitute girlfriend and bopping her head against the wall. Cohen played the whole prostitute thing blind, saying he thought she was a “massage therapist,” which is pretty much the go-to excuse for prostitutes. This is fun because just last Tuesday he won the nomination in a surprise victory soooo, Gov. Quinn's all like, “Great.”
Awkward, white-noise-filled footage featuring Ike Turner 2.0 pulling up weeds and clearing clearing debris in Richmond, Virginia as part of his sentence. You know what would go great with that florescent vest? A bow tie.
Here's another bully cop beating up someone half his size. This time it's a teenage girl, who got the treatment after flinging her shoe at the arresting officer. It doesn't look very fun.
