New Zealand officials have released a list of baby names put forward by parents that were rejected because they were too bizarre or offensive, including "Lucifer" and "Mafia No Fear".

The list of 77 names reveals one child was set to be called "Anal" before the Department of Internal Affairs vetoed the proposal, while another narrowly avoided being dubbed "." or full stop.

Other names on the list included "4Real", "V8", and "Queen Victoria".

In some cases, parents appeared to have lost any inspiration for coming up with a moniker for their offspring, wanting to call the latest addition to the family simply "2nd", "3rd" or "5th".

The department's rules forbid any name that might imply a child holds an official title or rank, so "King", "Duke" and "Princess" were among those that had been turned down most since 2001.

"Justice" was the most popular, having been rejected 62 times, although "Justus" and "Juztice" also failed to gain official approval.

In 2008, New Zealand's family court ordered that a nine-year-old girl whose parents had called her "Talula Does The Hula From Hawaii" should have her name changed because it was embarrassing and "makes a fool of the child".

At the time, judge Rob Murfitt criticised parents who gave their children bizarre names, citing examples such as "Number 16 Bus Shelter", "Midnight Chardonnay" and twins called "Benson" and "Hedges".

A CONVICTED sex offender caught driving and masturbating at the same time near one of Newcastle’s busiest beaches was jailed for a year yesterday after the court heard that he was a high risk of re-offending.

Dennis Bruce Godden, 41, stalked two women who were walking near Bar Beach on April 1.

He managed to reverse his car to keep up with one of the victims while simultaneously masturbating , a statement of facts said.

One of the victims said she felt violated and revolted.

Godden also followed a 53-year-old woman along the same stretch of walkway and was seen to have both hands around his penis, the statement said.

She told police that Godden was ‘‘waving it around’’ while staring at her.

Both victims recorded the numberplate on Godden’s car and reported him to police.

He was found near Nobbys Beach about an hour after the incidents and was arrested.
See your ad here

He pleaded guilty to two counts of committing acts of indecency.

He was jailed for one year with a non-parole period of six months after the court that he had been placed in an ‘‘acute crisis intervention unit’’ within the jail system.

Magistrate Bruce Williams noted that Godden received a suspended jail sentence in 2011 for similar offences.

‘‘This is a man with deep-rooted problems,’’ he said.

Bloke got locked up for it:roflz:

PS If he had both hands on it and the bird could still see it how big was his cock??

Like a good tiger mum, I'm sitting on a park bench waiting for my children to finish their maths tuition class. I'm watching the tattoo parlour next door. The tattooist ducks out every 10min or so for a fag, leaving his victim waiting. He's also downing a stubbie in a stubbie holder. He's onto his third beer.

Would a good citizen enter the parlour and tell the victim that his tattooist is drinking heavily and might not be performing at his best?

Yeah my bad I think he was rich first. I think I got lost along the "famous for being famous" line.

Pretty sure there would be some others in the social media game though. I know there's some chick who's always in those 30 second "comedy" videos I see on facebook that I think has recently landed a movie role out of it. Don't think she's loaded yet but I guess she fits the bill of making a bit of a living out of not doing much.

Looking back now it's hard to put so much shit on her when she didn't get a chance to hit her physical peak and tour experience.

If Kournikova had an average serve she would have been a top three player and won a lot of singles titles. Unfortunately for her she had the worst serve in women's professional tennis. It was flat, it was predictable, and worse still her 2nd serve was useless in both weight and accuracy.

As such opponents used to punish her serve to the point she was always chasing games. Off the ground she was good on both sides [but didn't use much top spin so could be unreliable at times], a fabulous net player with an excellent volley. She moved ok as well but like most Bolliteri kids she moved side to side much better than she did forwards and backwards - which never allowed her to take advantage of those volleying skills in singles games.

Holy hell. That is fantastically left field.
How ever do you describe that situation?
Was she trying to be famous though, or did she just hit the lottery?

If she 'knew' that dude was royalty and managed to wedge her way in there then thats about as awesome as it gets.

Sam Mac (from The B-League) recently took over the Sunrise weather gig.

I'd argue the leather skin & better-than-Arsenal-players hairdo is the only thing that's kept Daily Bailey in a gig at Channel 10.

Michael Lohan was a stockbroker / trader on Wall Street Member but was caught up in an insider trading scam and though either his own guilt or taking the wrap for others he went down for it.

Hence he made plenty of money, most likely more money back then than he has in recent times from the TV personality gig.

Didn't he make American Graffiti before Star Wars?

We are looking for people who became 'famous' for no real reason and have since turned it in to a lucrative career.

Your average reality TV contestant who goes to a few film openings don't count.

That's a bullshit argument Plague.

The money she might get from Ozzy's estate is irrelevant.

Ozzy is a rich man. She isn't rich.

She may well be the day he dies and his estate is settled but at the moment she is poor until that day arrives

1. Its my question, so i get to make the rules.
2. If you think Kelly Osbourne and Nicole Richie got their breaks in life through sheer hard work and jolly old elbow grease then you are a fool and i pity your existence.
3. All those old legacy music acts had record deals that were so artist heavy that the money will never be matched by some lame ass fashion line or reality TV appearance fees. Osbourne has been living off it her whole life trust me she rich.
4. Plague Jnr is already doing fine. Family trusts are very helpful. He has already been told that he gets his education supported, be it Uni or an apprenticeship. After that, nothing. and if you know me, you know that little bugger will thank his lucky stars he even got that much.
5. Im not rich. Never will be as long as cocaine and gambling are within arms reach in our society.
6. See point one, and continue on.

Plague your starting to bend the rules here

Osbourne got her break from the family reality show and then has chased fame and fortune on the back of it

Before that she was a no one with a famous father

Ritchie got her break appearing on a reality TV show with Hilton and then from her love life being all over the tabloids.

Before that she was a no one with a famous father.

These two didn't have fame. Found it on the back of no talent and then pursued it to get more cash and fame

For a start their alleged prior wealth isn't theirs just as their fame was never there before they capitalised on it

I ain't bending rules I invented Boss, you just don't understand them. I said no rich kids, especially rich kids of 'famous people'. It's that simple.

See, Johnny Knoxville is a better example.
First time I saw him was an old snowboarding mag where he got someone to shoot him in the chest to test out if a bullet proof vest actually worked.

That's about as obvious a 'look at me' moment as any.

He then went on to make a very good career from that type of behaviour.

vans and the removalist van. Too funny. Wish I took a photo then and there.
I called a mate who used to live in the area to give him the good news.

I returned later and snapped this for said mate as a momento.

i was at a shopping center today and noticed a fair few (seemingly) able bodied people out and about with 'support' dogs*.

it got me thinking, are we now living in a time where more 'handicap' people are enjoying more of a life in normal society because of the help of services like this, or are we getting softer where any slight issue with our lives makes us think we need a dog near us in order to get through the day.












*now, before we start, dogs are awesome and we should all be allowed to take our dogs everywhere we want to go.
(also): cats suck, and only wankers and people who cant stand up to their missus own cats.
