Tony Gentile / ReutersCosta Concordia cruise ship that ran off the West coast of Italy aground on the island of Giglio is located on the side, half under water and is in danger, slide into deeper waters.

Here, an idea is stellar, amounted to: pretend to be a grandmother, claimed that your daughter and granddaughter of missing wreckage from the Italian coast in the Costa Concordia. Then send a "friend" to a savvy New York lawyer, to tell the story, and then change the story as often as possible. Finally, you have a 5-year old blow your entire coverage.

This story is reported as the first officially falsely stating of the death of the disaster. Allegedly Peter Rónai, a personal - injury lawyer New York, the six Hungarian survivors from the liner represented was a Hungarian woman by e-Mail.

RONAI, who met in Budapest, was with the supposed friend - and then the story kept changing. The friend is apparently called the next day to say the granddaughter was not missing, blamed a misunderstanding. If Rónai asked to speak the 5-year old girl said that she had seen her "Mama" on this day in the Park on the swing. Then Rónai told ABC News that the "missing MOM" showed up and their story changed. No longer she may was dead - it was just injured when jumping from the cruise ship, but showed no signs of pain.

RONAI says the couple said, pull the scam to make money. Police arrested them; RONAI told ABC that they were recorded in the prison, but they face now criminal indictments.

Hungarian Ministry of Foreign Affairs statement one confirmed the incident. "On the basis of today officially confirmed information it has become clear that claims about the missing woman were unfounded," read the statement.

Team Obama Slams Koch Brothers Over 'Mother of all Wars' Quote

AppId is over the quota
AppId is over the quota

The Obama campaign is going after billionaire Charles Koch and the Koch Industries he and his conservative brother David run. In an E-mail from Team Obama manager Jim Messina, the campaign accuses Charles Koch of quoting Saddam Hussein in declaring that the GOP campaign against Barack Obama will be "the mother of all wars."

Messina wrote to supporters, "If that offends you, it absolutely should. But it should also motivate you, because you are the only thing that can stop them." In the E-mail, he notes that the Kochs have pledged to raise millions to defeat Obama. [See photos of the Obamas behind the scenes.]

Not surprisingly, he hopes the quote will inspire donors to write a check. "I'd rather not spend time talking about this kind of gutter politics, but one simple fact makes it impossible to brush aside: special-interest groups like Karl Rove's American Crossroads Super PAC have already pledged to pour nearly $200 million into attacking the president in the coming months—and more shadowy groups file paperwork and start running ads every week." [Check out political cartoons about the GOP.]

The Koch family had no comment today, but associates were quick to dismiss earlier reports that Charles Koch compared Obama to Saddam.

Here's something you and I weren't supposed to find out:

At a private function at a Colorado resort, oil billionaire Charles Koch stood in front of hundreds of conservative millionaires and said the 2012 election will be, in the words of Saddam Hussein—yes, he decided to quote Saddam Hussein—"the mother of all wars."

He then read through a list of 32 contributors who gave more than a million dollars each to bankroll the network of corporate special-interest groups that aim to tear down President Obama.

If that offends you, it absolutely should. But it should also motivate you, because you are the only thing that can stop them.

Can you make a donation of $5 or more right now?

I'd rather not spend time talking about this kind of gutter politics, but one simple fact makes it impossible to brush aside: special-interest groups like Karl Rove's American Crossroads Super PAC have already pledged to pour nearly $200 million into attacking the President in the coming months—and more shadowy groups file paperwork and start running ads every week.

Right now, the president is focused on creating jobs and improving the lives of middle-class families. And this campaign will keep doing what we've been doing from the very beginning: growing a truly grassroots organization that's doing politics a different way, and encouraging as many people as possible to take ownership of this campaign as early as possible. It has to start with you.

The Koch brothers and the front groups they fund have decided on the tone they want the election to take in the coming months—and we should expect these kinds of smears to only get worse.

But we still have a say about the kind of race we want to run and the kind of political climate we want to create. Take a stand now to support it.

Tennessee police, mother to the dispute over the child aged 10 to riding bike school

Published September 07, 2011| FoxNews.com

Tennessee police is in dispute heated with a mother to allow her daughter 10 years ride his bike to school alone, arguing that the journey of a thousand is dangerous and the safety of the child is at stake.

Elizabethton Police service said Teresa Tryon that her daughter is not allowed to ride his bike without supervision to elementary school and Harold McCormick, because the roads were too much traffic.

"We are just search for the safety of the child," head of the Police Elizabethton Matt Bailey told FoxNews.com. "It's a busy street surface." It is not a road by definition, but it is a very busy road. »

Bailey, said an officer observed cars doing around the child swerving to avoid hitting the last month. He said that Constable also saw the girl "is outstanding." Police then Tryon and he said that it was dangerous for the girl to ride his bike.

Tryon, who described his daughter as an "avid cyclist", says the girl is not violating a city ordinance and that she has the right to ride his bike to school, the reports of TriCities.com.

"How the agent knows my daughter better than me?" she told the station.

Bailey told FoxNews.com that the police have advised District Prosecutor's Office and that Tryon could potentially facing charges of child negligence if the situation continues. He noted that a child was struck and killed while riding a bike on the same streets a few years earlier, prompting the police to take additional precautions.

But Tryon would have company standing in its decision to allow the girl up.

"Is the DA, it is a little extreme for a 10-year-old a thousand riding," she told the station. "It is not breaking any law.". It is a judgment - even on the incident report. The officer wrote, it is a judgment. »

Tryon could not be reached for comment contacted Wednesday by FoxNews.com.
