Drunk Female Texas Student Taking Topless Snapchat Pic Crashes Her Car Into Police

A Texas A&M chick told the cops she was taking a topless Snapchat selfie for her boyfriend moments before her SUV slammed into the back of a parked police car.

According to KTLA:

It happened around 8:30 p.m. Wednesday on East Villa Maria Road in Bryan, Texas.

Police Officer John Sartell approached the vehicle to find the driver, 20-year-old Miranda Kay Rader, wearing an unclasped bra, attempting to put her shirt on, according to KBTX.

There was also an open bottle of wine in the center console cupholder, police say.

When Officer Sartell asked her why she was not dressed, the woman told him she was “taking a Snapchat photo to send to her boyfriend while she was at a red light.”

Rader was charged with DWI with an open container and was also issued a citation for minor in possession of alcohol.

Well damn! Don’t drink and drive while taking Snapchat topless selfies folks!

Georgia Postal Worker Caught On Video Dumping Mail In The Woods

Waiting for the mailman to bring you something? Well, you might be waiting awhile for it if you live in one Atlanta suburb.

According to KTLA:

A woman videotaped a US Postal Service worker earlier this week dumping bin after bin of mail in the woods behind her subdivision in Decatur, Georgia.

“I sat there and recorded for about 5 minutes. And he continued to just grab more mail and continued to just toss it over the fence,” Kellie Campbell told CNN affiliate WSB. Campbell said the man even took a short break to rest before finishing and driving off.

The postal service sent five investigators over to pick up the discarded mail Wednesday. It took them more than two hours to get it all out of the woods. The USPS has started an investigation. An investigation into the matter has already been started by the USPS.

‘Very disrespectful’

“The postal service condemns, in the strongest possible sense, behavior that jeopardizes the security and sanctity of the US mail or threatens to tarnish the reputation and high level of trust that the vast majority of our employees work so hard to uphold,” the USPS said in a statement to WSB.

The postal service says it thinks the man in the video is a part-time employee of the agency.

Residents, who say they’ve missed getting important pieces of mail in the past, were ticked off.

“That’s where my mail at, down in that hole down there in the woods,” resident Johnnie Lanier said. “I think that was very disrespectful.”

Will the residents ever get their mail? The postal service said it will be delivered to them as soon as possible.

Australian Farm Grazes Cows On Cadbury’s Chocolate

This story has nothing to with crime, as a matter of fact, quite the opposite.

According to Fortune Magazine, an Australian farmer is grazing his cows in the lap of luxury. While most cattle that produce the top grain beef known as “wagyu” graze on just plain ol grass, his cows are chowing down on gummy bears and Cadbury’s chocolate. Yummy.

Originally posted on Fortune:

Forget the days of premium grass-fed beef. Nowadays, chocolate-fed Wagyu is the new luxury beef, an Australian cattle farm claims.

Scott De Bruin, managing partner of 171-year-old Mayura Station, wants everyone to know his cows are eating what he calls only “the best”: Cadbury’s chocolate, along with gummy bears and other ingredients.

He tells Fortune in an interview.

“A happy cow is a good cow.”

De Bruin believes the term “Wagyu” is overused on menus, so his company is simply renaming its products “Mayura beef.” Overall, the “Wagyu” label has become too generic, which doesn’t do suppliers any favors in relaying the different qualities of beef available, explains Mayura’s distributor, Jason Lo.

Feeding chocolate to cows isn’t particularly new. Farmers have turned to the sweets in the past to help keep costs down amid high corn prices, and candy has also turned up in the feeds of dairy farmers, who’ve used it to boost the content of butterfat in their cows’ milk.

But De Bruin says his regime—which involves weekly deliveries of 10 tons of chocolate—has a few secret ingredients, and, overall, brings his costs up about 25%.

“To actually include this in the feed is actually quite expensive for us. It’s much more expensive than feeding corn. So for us, it’s not about lowering the cost or producing it more economically. This is about producing an item that distinguishes itself in flavor.”
