    Warrant Issued for Lindsay Lohan's Arrest

    Lindsay Lohan's week is off to a rough start.
    Following a weekend full of reports -- and her own admission -- that she had failed court-mandated drug tests, a California judge has issued a warrant for her arrest, TMZ reports.
    The bench warrant is on hold until Friday at 8:30 AM, when Lindsay is ordered to appear in court.
    Lohan, 24, could be sentenced to 30 days behind bars for each of the two failed tests.
    “I predict she will get at least 30-45 days for the violations,” Santa Monica-based criminal defense attorney Steve Cron told FOX411.com. “Judge Fox is going to want to ensure Lindsay is taking the court system seriously and right now, she just doesn’t seem to get it.”
    Lohan tested positive for cocaine and amphetamines, TMZ reports.

    Oh for pete's sake...put this girl in jail and get her @ss straightened out already.  ~Char

    Roads closed, tactical team on scene in Kenosha

    9/20 2:09 p.m.

    Traffic is blocked at 22nd Street and Washington Road in Kenosha, where police in tactical gear have taken up positions.
    Police could not confirm what time the road closed, but it was observed closed around noon. The Washington Road intersection, as well as the intersection at 22nd Avenue and 35th Street remained closed at 2 p.m.
    Authorities would only say that a “police action” led to the road closure.
    People at the scene said police had targeted a specific home, but that home was not visible from the closed intersection. One man at the scene said a woman inside a home had a gun. He said the woman was a relative.
    No other information was available.

    Men and Losing Weight

    A man calls a company and orders their 5-day, 10 lb. weight loss program.

    The next day, there's a knock on the door and there stands before him a voluptuous, athletic, 19 year old babe dressed in nothing but a pair of Nike running shoes and a sign around her neck.
    She introduces herself as a representative of the weight loss company.
    The sign reads, "If you can catch me, you can have me."
    Without a second thought, he takes off after her.
    A few miles later huffing and puffing, he finally gives up.

    The same girl shows up for the next four days and the same thing happens.
    On the fifth day, he weighs himself and is delighted to find he has lost 10 lbs. as promised.
    He calls the company and orders their 5-day/20 pound program.
    The next day there's a knock at the door and there stands the most stunning and beautiful woman he has ever seen in his life.
    She is wearing nothing but Reebok running shoes and a sign around her neck that reads, "If you catch me you can have me."
    Well, he's out the door after her like a shot.
    This girl is in excellent shape and he does his best, but no such luck.

    So for the next four days, the same routine happens with him gradually getting in better and better shape.
    Much to his delight on the fifth day when he weighs himself, he discovers that he has lost another 20 lbs. as promised.
    He decides to go for broke and calls the company to order the 7-day/50 pound program.
    "Are you sure?" asks the representative on the phone. "This is our most rigorous program."
    "Absolutely," he replies, "I haven't felt this good in years."

    The next day there's a knock at the door; and when he opens it he finds a huge muscular guy standing there wearing nothing but pink running shoes and a sign around his neck that reads,"If I catch you, you are mine!!!"

    He lost 63 pounds that week.
