Sing me a story!

A massive cloud to ground lightning barrage is currently striking in an area 30 miles southwest of Bentonville, JJS.

 Live streaming video is showing continuous straight CG lightning consistant with positive strikes which are more powerful than the more common negative strikes.

 "It's like an artillery barrage. It's extremely loud, and we can feel the electric charge in the air."

 The storm came with very warning and one man was taken to a local hospital after lightning surged through the desktop computer he was using at the time.


 Today is incredibly hot and humid, with temperatures soaring into the 100s in the southern part of the state.

You can hear the student gasp and wheeze and it appears that he was starting to pass out.

Another teacher tried to intervene but he too was attacked and pummeled. The video also shows a student hitting that teacher with a skateboard.

At least 10 students were involved in the melee.

 The whole incident started when the student who was put in a headlock started cursing and acting agressive tward the tall musclebound teacher and that's when the teacher rushed the student, slamming him onto the picnic table and then put him in a headlock. Both of them turn over and the teacher is seen trying to choke the student out. That teacher has been arrested by Bentonville police and he is charged with assault and abuse twards a minor. During the arrest, a student heckled the teacher, yelling "Youse a bitch! Youse about to be someone's girlfriend!" as the teacher was put into the back of a police squad car.

It is not known at this time if any of the students were arrested. The student who was headlocked was taken to Bentonville General Hospital for injuries sustained during the incident.

MAGNITUDE 6.6 EARTHQUAKE STRIKES BENTONVILLE, SJJ AREA

 Just a moment ago, a magnitude 6.6 eartquake struck 2 miles east of downtown Bentonville causing severe damage, damaging water and gas mains, and interupted service on the Arun High Speed Rail line.

 Here in JJC, the shaking was quite strong knocking over furniture and causing automatic seismic shutdown devices to activate. Right now the entire subway system has ground to a halt.

 Cracks can be seen on numerous buildings throughout JJC, and there are confirmed reports that the "Big 3" skyscrapers are being evacuated.

 The shaking was significant for nearly a minute and residents of JJC are calling in reporting that they can still feel some ground motion.

 We just experienced another significant quake epicentered in the same area of the quake that occoured moments ago. It is now confirmed that this second quake was a 6.2, and now we are seeing people evacuating the buildings around our studio in Manhattan, JJC. 

 Much of JJC as well as parts of the state is now without power, and a tsunami watch has been issued for the JJC coastal areas. While we are not witnessing signs of a tsunami as of yet, the beaches and boardwalks are being evacuated as a precaution.

 We also have a traffic alert stating that the I1 is beginning to back up due to the earthquakes.

Right now, there is a plume of smoke rising from an industrial area southeast of downtown Bentonville which we are being told is from a fire that started right after the first quake.

 The Springfield, SJJ power plant has reported that they are in shutdown mode due to violent seismic shaking at the plant and that they have experienced some damage. Crews there are working to repair the damage and to bring the plant back online. Seismic shutdown devices automatically activated and took the plant offline during the first quake.

 Man severely beaten, house "made to look like Swiss cheese".

Last night at 2 am, 50 men descended on a 1 story ranch style house in west Bentonville, JJS that was lived in by a pro Weidmann supporter, and started smashing out walls and the roof with axes and sledgehammers.

Some of them chased him out of the house and when they caught up to him, he was beaten with baseball bats and metal pipes, and a caustic liquid was poured all over his skin.

 They also covered him in liquified dog feces.

The house was destroyed, looking like it was hit with tank fire. It too was covered inside and out with bucketfuls of liquid feces and several different kinds of caustic chemicals.

"This wasn't damage from the earthquakes a couple days ago, this was human rage."

 Parents fed up with exploitative premium phone "hotlines" aimed at kids.

 This station recieved numerous angry calls last Christmas after a 'dial-a-Santa' commercial was aired that instructed kids to hold up the telephone reciever to the TV set and the commercial played DTMF (dial) tones to automatically dial that number. 

Right after that, the WJJC switchboard lit up with angry calls from parents who demanded that the commercial be pulled off the air immediately.

 The commercial was only aired that one time on this station and WJJC has terminated it's advertising contract with Phone Programs, the service that runs "Santa's Hotline" (the service the commercial in question was for) and others and is based in Bentonville, JJS

 "Phone Programs" - wasn't that the company who had the CEO that was arrested for being involved in a meth traffiking ring out of that same city? I admit I did call their "Action Arcade" line in the 2180s. Basically the phone version of chose-your-own-adventure with realtime elements added to it. They also ran several phone sex lines in the 2180s and 2190s.   -  JJC resident
