Flo Rida just scored big in his DUI case — TMZ has learned, the rapper struck a sweet deal with prosecutors that will land him in a classroom … rather than a jail cell.  Flo rida name Tramar Dillard  was busted in Miami Beach back in June on suspicion of DUI inside his million-dollar Bugatti. At the time, cops said Flo’s blood alcohol level was .185 … more than twice the legal limit. But an attorney for Mr. Rida was in court today — and got the judge to send Flo to a first-time offenders program instead of the slammer … a thing called “Back on Track,” which entails a bunch of stuff like substance abuse classes, counseling, community service, and drug testing. Under the deal … if Flo completes all the program requirements, prosecutors will knock the DUI charge down to a lesser charge — reckless driving. Not bad. TMZ

Un juez federal en Brooklyn escuchará este martes los argumentos sobre si el gobierno federal está actuando constitucionalmente en su decisión sobre el acceso que deben tener las adolescentes a las píldoras de emergencia o del día siguiente. El juez federal Edward Korman escuchará los argumentos el martes por la tarde, una semana después de que el gobierno federal anunció que bloquearía la venta en mostrador de la píldora de emergencia a niñas sexualmente activas que sean menores de 17 años. Korman fue muy crítico de la forma como el gobierno manejó el tema cuando ordenó hace dos años a la Agencia de Alimentos y Medicamentos (FDA, por sus siglas en inglés) permitir que las jóvenes de 17 años tuvieran acceso al tratamiento. En ese entonces, acusó al gobierno de permitir que “consideraciones políticas, atrasos y justificaciones poco convincentes en la toma de decisiones” empañaran el proceso de aprobación. Miami Herald

La primera mala noticia del año para el mayagüezano José Juan Barea vino en diciembre. Tras un año de bendiciones que incluyó un campeonato de NBA, medalla panamericana y la concepción de su primer bebé, Barea se mostró frustrado tras llegar a Dallas y comenzar conversaciones respecto a su futuro con los Mavericks. “Las cosas no se ven bien aquí en Dallas”, sostuvo el armador agente libre a ESPN.com. “Estoy decepcionado. No estaba esperando esto. Ojalá esto se ponga mejor”, comentó. Barea está buscando un contrato de cuatro años y $20 millones, pero el paro laboral y el nuevo convenio entre jugadores y dueños podría afectar su impulso para alcanzar ese acuerdo. Aún así, Barea indicó que Dallas sigue siendo su “primera opción”. Vocero

A 19-year-old Wisconsin man has been convicted of a ‘planking’ spree that included him lying on top of a police car, a bank ATM machine and a Walmart checkout counter. Alexander Hart was found guilty of disorderly conduct. ‘Planking’ photos that were posted earlier this year on his Facebook page, as well as an incriminating YouTube video, were used as evidence against him in court.  When confronted by police officers, Hart said that the photographes were taken ‘to get laughs’, reports The Smoking Gun. He plans to contest his disorderly-conduct charge, saying he was ‘just having fun’. The teenager also claims his freedom of speech may have been violated by the action of police officers. Planking is a worldwide craze that involves posing for photos or videos of oneself lying face-down, straight as a board, in unusual places. Mail Online

Before her tragic passing in 2007, Anna Nicole Smith was well known her outrageous behaviour. But in a bizarre never-seen-before photo shoot, it appears that she took things to a whole other level. New snaps show the late actress and model completely naked and painted in gold. Taken while she was pregnant with her now five-year-old daughter Danielynn, Smith’s modesty is merely covered by her arm and a thick veil of the metallic paint. The logo of the company is also stencilled on her baby bump in black, running down to her left thigh. The new images surfaced from internet casino Golden Palace.com, the company for which they say Smith was the face of. She had agreed to become their spokesperson after her son Daniel passed away in 2006.

Rod Blagojevich, the ousted Illinois governor whose three-year battle against criminal charges became a national spectacle, was sentenced to 14 years in prison Wednesday, one of the stiffest penalties imposed for corruption in a state with a history of crooked politics. Blagojevich’s 18 convictions included allegations of trying to leverage his power to appoint someone to President Barack Obama’s vacated Senate seat to raise campaign cash or land a high-paying job. The twice-elected Democrat is now the second former Illinois governor in a row to be sentenced to prison, and the fourth Illinois governor in the last four decades. His Republican predecessor, George Ryan, currently is serving a sentence of 6 1/2 years, also for corruption.
