Apparently the government can reach in your pocket and take ca$h even if you're behind bars!

O.J. Simpson was just hit with his third tax lien in the last 12 months!

Just because you're in jail, doesn't mean the world stops moving.

O.J. has been hit with a $179,435.07 lien for 2007 to 2010, the new lien of $17,015.99 owed from 2011 and on top of that he still owes

This is HUGE news, you guys!!

Did you know that Russia is the second largest tobacco market in the WORLD? China's got them beat, for sure, but being #2 on a list like that is nothing to be proud of!

Well, we'll tell you what IS something to be proud of: Russian lawmakers just backed a law which would ban smoking in bars, cafes and other public spaces to promote healthier living!

We just previously mentioned that chicken wings stock was expected to hit a record high because of the Super Bowl.

Now it seems like chicken wings may be in such high demand that they won't be easy to find on game day!

Due to the high cost of corn and feed, chicken wing production has decreased.

So what happens when you add decreased production with an increased demand??

Uh oh!

Lance Armstrong just admitted to doping in a 2 1/2 hour long interview with Oprah Winfrey, and now that his INSANE secret is out of the bag, the anti-doping officials want him under oath!!

On Tuesday, the International Cycling Union expressed that they knew what the cycler said to Winfrey, and wanted him to tell his story to an independent agency.

And while he's already apologized to Livestrong, he's still in big trouble with

And there it is, folks: Lance Armstrong has finally admitted to using doping techniques to win the Tour de France. We're glad he admitted it, but wow, what an awfully shameful way to play a sport. We're disgusted.

He sat down with Oprah yesterday, and we're hearing that he did indeed open up about his use of performance enhancing drugs to turn him into the super athlete we know today. Just turns out he's a fake super athlete.

Apparently he even apologized to the staff at the Livestrong Foundation that left several staff members in tears.

Of course, not wanting to give anything away, this is all Oprah tweeted:

Well, this is one way to make people healthier, we suppose.

Even though we don't really agree with it!

If you're overweight and British, you might be seeing your healthcare benefits cut if you don’t complete a doctor-prescribed exercise regimen.

We hope you aren't offended by us calling drunk drivers, who do something incredibly stupid, stupid. Because they are, plain and simple, and there is NO reason for them to be out on the roads while drunk.

Cabs exist, DDs are lined up for a reason. No excuses.

People can't seem to grasp that, though, and people continue to die needlessly because of it. Well, science wants to stop that by stalling drunk drivers.

We just have to survive 2013 before we get out hands on the new technology made by a company called Qinetiq. It could end drunk driving, once and for all. All sixteen major carmakers and the federal government split the funding for the $10 million project.

How does it work?
