Yet another celebrity "Going" to jail...

Looking on nme's website this afternoon and found an intresting article. Apparantly Britney Spears has been charged with "hit and run with out a valid license" so it says in this article: http://www.nme.com/news/britney-spears/31306

Can anyone see the Paris Hilton scenario repeating here? Do you think they would put a celebrity down for 6 months? I have a feeling that (as much as I think celebritys deserve the same treatment in court as us) they probally won't give the full sentance... Rolling Eyes

What do you think?

It makes me sick that they get special treatment, just because they're famous. If they commit a crime then they should be punished for it, just like everyone else. [/rant]

Its not always that they get special treatment..

Sometimes jails are to full of people, are you going to let a real criminal walk free, or a dumb blonde who has no idea what shes doing..?

I mean dumb by this:

ARGHHHHHHHHHHH Shocked

Wait till halloween before you scare me like that again Lotharx, I shouldn't have scrolled down as fast as I did. Razz

You have a point there Lotharx, what would a dumb person learn from prison too? Though I would have to agree with darkshines more for the sake of giving equal punishments to celebritys

Backers of former premier Thaksin Shinawatra protest at Parliament in Bangkok on Monday.
WoW Power Leveling,
The protesters had kept Abhisit and his ministers out of the Parliament building and forced the delay of his speech since Monday.Abhisit delivered the constitutionally-required speech from the foreign ministry. He focused on improving the nation's economy, promoting tourism and dealing with Thailand's troubled southern provinces.
The Thai constitution requires an incoming prime minister to address parliament with a formal policy speech within 15 days of taking office.
Abhisit has until January 7 to fulfill the obligation, although the government can request an extension. The constitution does not specify where the prime minister must deliver the speech.
AbhisitWoW Power Leveling, said negotiations with the protesters were ongoing and that he would not authorize violence or a special law to deal with the demonstrations.
"The government will not use force to disperse the demonstrators. We will continue to negotiate. What has happened today will not affect the government's plans," he said, according to the Thai News Agency.
WoW Power Leveling,WoW Power Leveling,
Abhisit's supporters, also numbering in the thousands, gathered outside his Democrat Party headquarters in Bangkok in a show of solidarity.

TheParliament named the 44-year-old, Oxford-educated Abhisit as prime minister on December 17after some members of the former ruling coalition broke ranks to support him.

But his accession was met with angry protests by supporters of former Prime Minister Thaksin World Of Warcraft power Shinawatra, who threw rocks and chunks of pavement at lawmakers leaving the session.
WoW Power Leveling,
Thailand's recent woes date back to a 2006 coup that ousted Thaksin. They culminated with a December 2 court ruling that found the ruling party -- former Thaksin backers -- guilty of electoral fraud and threw his brother-in-law out of the prime minister's office.

That ruling came after more than two months of sit-ins by opponents of the ruling People Power Party, which regained office in 2007 elections.

Demonstrators occupied the headquarters of the government and blockaded Bangkok's major international airport, stranding hundreds of thousands of tourists who provide much of the country's revenue.
WoW Gold,
Abhisit has pledged to work toward an economic rescue for Thailand, which teeters on the edge of recession.
Since the 2007 elections ended 16 months of military rule, the country has had three prime ministers.

Welcome to the happiness frenzy, now peaking at a Barnes & Noble near you: Last year 4,000 books were published happiness, while a mere 50 books on the topic were releasedin2000.

psychologist Martin Seligman of the University ofPennsylvania exhorted colleagues to scrutinize

BEIJING, July 31 (Xinhuanet) -- A leading technology website has suggested Internet Explorer 6 (IE6) should be

disposed of in the technological garbage heap since it is "outdated". Mashable, a website that draws over 5 million

readers every month, says that with the upcoming release of HTML 5 (Hyper Text Mark-up Language) many IE6 users may

find themselves unable to use the web.
replica rolex,
HTML is the language of the web, and HTML 5 will provide greater functionality. But while old browsers may still work

with websites written in HTML 5, they will not obtain the best experience or functionality. With more companies

dropping support for IE6 many users may be left out in the cold.
replica rolex,
Digg, Facebook and YouTube are all about to end their support for IE 6 and are recommending that users switch to a

browser that works.
replica rolex,
It is estimated that between 15 and 25 percent of Internet users browse the web with IE6, partly because it is the

browser that came with the most used operating system Windows XP. But many individuals and companies have simply

failed to upgrade. Digg, a social news website made for people to discover and share content from the Internet,

suggests that more than 70 percent of those using IE6 were forced to do so by their company.
replica rolex,
"Any IT manager who forces his company to run IE 6 in 2009 is dangerously incompetent and should probably not be in

charge of anything more complicated than buying biscuits," suggests Shane Richmond, who writes for the Daily

Telegraph's technology column. But he concedes there may be reasons behind the decision to keep using IE6 despite its

age. "It’s possible that they’re doing this because their company uses an intranet, or some other custom-built web

service, that was designed to work in IE 6 and is useless in any other browser," Richmond says.
replica rolex,
But now there are "far superior browsers like Firefox, Safari, Opera and Chrome, as well as Internet Explorer 8,"

Mashable's Ben Parr says, "IE6 was fine enough for use in 2001, but for web apps to evolve and grow into tools that

run just as seamlessly as desktop apps, the browser that requires the most hacks, time, and energy to make things

work must be set aside."

As more website drift away from providing support for IE6, so too might Internet users think about changing their

browser, says Ben Parr. "The only way at this point that people will upgrade it if their favorite web tools don’t

work in IE6."

Internet Explorer 6 "is outdated and should die"
