NEWARK, N.J. (AP) - A father's attempt to teach his daughter a lesson about drinking backfired when the teen led police to a stash of drugs and weapons inside their home.

Kevin Winston, 46, called police at 2:45 a.m. Friday after his 16-year-old daughter came home drunk and unruly. When police arrived, however, the girl told them she feared for her safety because her father stored drugs and weapons in the home.

The girl led officers to a crawl space above the ceiling where they found four semiautomatic guns and more than 600 vials of cocaine.

Winston was charged with numerous weapons and drug charges. His five daughters were placed in the custody of a relative.

``He called us on her and ended up getting locked up himself,'' said Newark Police Director Anthony Ambrose.

Can anyone tell me what's going on here? This song is a threat for the best on the album as far as I'm concerned, top 3 at least. Yet, the Hip have maybe played it once or twice in the last 2-3 weeks? I haven't seen it on many setlists for a while now.

I just find it hard to believe, cause it's such a solid song! I was a tad disappointed when it wasn't played at the ACC, but you can't hear everything. Anyone else feel this way? Or am I one in the minority of people who think this song rocks?!

Anybody suffer from this? Im not a big fan of winter myself, growing up in Canada Im used to long cold winters, bad roads and lots of stress. When I was younger I spent many winters playing road hockey for hours and hours, playing ice hockey and going to school, but as I got older winter became less fun, no more road hockey, no more ice hockey and full time work became my life. Its not so much the cold that bothers me, I can take it, but for the last 4 years my job was 30 mins away in St.Mary's, and it was shift work, so Id be driving through the horrible snow belt of sw ontario, in the early mornings and in the middle of the night, and let me tell you the stress was awful, for me and my wife. But this year I made a career change so no more driving in storms to get to work, I finally got a job in London and this winter I am much more upbeat with the bad weather looming, but I still find myself getting a little down, my hockey career long over, I hate skiing, the NHL gone Cry and I dont make snowmen anymore (Im in an apartment). But this year I joined a gym so hopefully that will keep me going strong, I play indoor ball hockey on thursdays, and I like my new job and maybe just maybe the NHL will come back, well so far its looking alot better than last year. Hopefully the days of winter blahs, feeling down and gaining weight are behind me. Anybody out there in Hipbase land have these same feelings? What sort of things do you do to keep upbeat and busy during the winter months? Anybody hate winter, have a bad/good story to tell? Id like to know how my fellow canucks cope with the cold, you too in the USA I havent forgotten its cold there too! :wink: well in some parts anyway.

I love U2. I saw their video for Vertigo on MTV2 Canada the other day so I stopped to check it out. Joel Plaskett Emergency was on immediately after with their video for that song that starts, "My mind's made up..." Thought the exposure was good for them. Crazy what opening for the Hip can do for you, eh!

Just a quick note if you haven't heard yet, Dylan will be on 60 minutes this Sunday night. First interview he's done in about 19 years or so. Should be pretty interesting to see..............

Stumbled across this on the Rolling Stone website:

Tim Dickinson is a writer and editor based in San Francisco who'd like to know what Justice Stephen Breyer had been smoking when he said this during Supreme Court arguments about Medical Marijuana: "You know, he grows heroin, cocaine, tomatoes that are going to have genomes in them that could, at some point, lead to tomato children that will eventually affect Boston."

Tomato children in Boston. WTF! Good name for a band. Very strange.
