  7. Crime & Punishment: Out of Control Bridgeport Man Attacks Police Officer With an Urn

    <strong>For the last six years,</strong> Republican state legislators have put together an alternative budget to the one presented and usually enacted by Democrats, who have strong majorities in both houses of the legislature. This year, however, the GOP declined to offer their own plan, probably because party leaders in both state houses are considering running for governor in 2014 and facets of the budget would no doubt be criticized in the campaign. The Democrats first mocked this by posting a document titled "GOP's Budget Proposal" on their website. The PDF file consists of a title page and 79 blank pages. For their next display, they attempted to send intern Matt Wildman into the Legislative Office Building in a chicken costume to deliver wings to the Republicans but Capital police told him he couldn't enter with his face covered. The website CT News Junkie reports that Wildman stripped down to pants and a gray T-shirt and left the chicken wings outside the GOP offices but police also confiscated the food.

  9. Crime & Punishment: Wesleyan Students Get Kicked Out of the Connecticut Science Center

    <strong>Cecelia Lebby is constantly at the New Britain Superior Court,</strong> filing paperwork and attending hearings, but she isn't a court clerk or lawyer. Lebby is just a citizen who has filed more than 70 lawsuits and 40 appeals pro se since 2005, reports WFSB. Among those she has attempted to sue are the New Britain Police Department, Connecticut Light and Power, Wal-Mart, Target and the fan club of Poison singer Bret Michaels. Most of her reasons are odd. For example, she plans on suing Ted Nugent because she says a concert she attended ended too soon. (Side note: There is no such thing as a Ted Nugent concert that ends too soon.) Lebby meets low-income eligibility, so the fee to file each suit is waived. Though most of her cases are quickly dismissed, she did get $8,000 from WWE in an out-of-court settlement that forbade her from suing the company again. When asked to respond to those who would say she is abusing the system, Lebby said she doesn't "listen to those people; I listen to God, because I know in my heart that I'm doing this for the right cause."

  12. Extreme Weather Of 2011: Freak October Snowstorm

    When fat snowflakes the size of silver dollars began falling on Halloween weekend, it was as if nature had packed the worst weather of the year into a single storm and flung it at Connecticut. There was wind and record snow. There was yet another record for power outages. And this time, it was cold.
