Yankees star Aaron Judge’s girlfriend Samantha Bracksieck was busted on “extreme DUI” charges in Arizona. 26-year-old Bracksieck was stopped around 11:50 p.m. on February 25th in Scottsdale after cops allegedly caught her driving a white 2017 Honda HR-V without the headlights on while going up to ten miles above the speed limit. When cops questioned her about the headlights, she said she hadn’t realized they were off. “I could smell a strong odor of an intoxicating beverage coming from inside the vehicle and from her breath as she spoke,” cops wrote in the report, adding that Bracksieck was slurring her words and had bloodshot eyes. Court records show Bracksieck was charged with “extreme DUI” for an alleged blood alcohol concentration level between .15 and .19, as well as a headlight violation and changing lanes in an unsafe manner. Bracksieck pleaded not guilty and her case is still pending. If convicted, she faces potential jail time and fines. (https://bit.ly/2WOS3lU)

A
new study examining people’s cleaning frequencies and their
personality traits revealed Americans who are “super clean” are
twice as happy with their overall lives than those who believe
themselves to be “messy.” The study surveyed 2,000 Americans and
divided them into three self-identifying groups: super clean,
moderately clean, and messy. The super cleans were found to be more
content in family matters, have a better sex life, get better sleep,
have more career satisfaction, and felt less stressed.
In
China, a man who got stuck in river mud was so embarrassed that he
didn’t call for help right away — even though he had a phone. The

help for four hours, before finally giving up on his attempts to free
himself and asking two passing fishermen for help.

There's a textbook written entirely by an AI author. Publishers are always eager to release something unique—and Springer Nature did just that when they published a textbook by an author named Beta Writer in 2019. No, that's not a cheeky pseudonym; it's the name of a machine-learning algorithm designed by researchers from Goethe University in Frankfurt, Germany. The book is called Lithium-Ion Batteries: A Machine-Generated Summary of Current Research. And while it doesn't sound like the most interesting material, it is "the first machine-generated research book," according to the academic publishing company.

A
nurse on an all-male coronavirus ward in Russia has been disciplined
for only wearing lingerie beneath her transparent protective gown.
Her revealing picture went viral after being taken by a patient at a
hospital in Tula, 100 miles south of Moscow, who said there were 'no
complaints' from his bedfellows. But hospital chiefs were not amused
and punished the nurse for “non-compliance with the requirements
for medical clothing.” The unnamed medic in her 20s said she was
“too hot” wearing her nurses' uniform under the gown. She told
her managers at Tula Regional Clinical Hospital that she did not
realize the PPE she wore when treating coronavirus patients was so
transparent. Despite this, the regional health ministry reported
that “a disciplinary sanction was applied to the nurse of the
infectious diseases department who violated uniform requirements.”
Southwestern Indiana police say a man allegedly attacked a neighbor with a Weed Wacker, leaving him with cuts on his back, as the two men feuded over grass clippings left along a roadway. 48-year-old Gail Kammerer was arrested Thursday on a preliminary charge of battery with a deadly weapon. The Evansville man remained jailed without bond Friday ahead of a probable cause hearing. The Evansville Courier & Press reports that Kammerer told deputies he attacked his neighbor after the man blew grass clippings onto him while using a riding lawn mower to clear a roadway of clippings Kammerer had produced while clearing a ditch.

A
man in Jupiter, Florida, who admits he was skeptical that the
coronavirus was a real threat, has a new outlook after contracting
the virus. Around this time last month, rideshare driver Brian
Hitchens was a self-proclaimed COVID-19 skeptic. He says he thought
"maybe the government trying something, and it was kind of like
they threw it out there to kinda distract us." He made Facebook
posts downplaying the seriousness. Fast forward to this week and
Hitchens has a whole new outlook from his hospital bed. It hits even
closer to home for Hitchens after his wife was admitted to the same
hospital at the same time for coronavirus. She's been on a ventilator
for three weeks.
