Nuns made kids eat vomit, wear soiled sheets: Hearing
(NEWSER) – Nuns beat children for bedwetting, put soiled sheets on their heads to humiliate them, and forced them to eat their own vomit when they were sick—according to accusations made today at a hearing into care homes in Northern Ireland, the Guardian reports. Senior Counsel Christine Smith also accused the nuns at the Sisters of Nazareth order of bathing children in disinfectant and threatening to send them to an adult mental hospital if they failed to conform. What's more, said Smith, the nuns have been slow in aiding this historic inquiry, the Belfast Telegraph reports.

As 'punishment,' Clippers bigot Donald Sterling could make $1 billion
It's only going to get worse for embattled Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling. On Sunday afternoon, Deadspin released a longer version of everyone's least-favorite lecherous, reptilian, slumlord billionaire airing his so-called thoughts on race to his (presumably now former) girlfriend, V. Stiviano.
Feel free to listen to more of this poisonous dreck, if you really need to hear how Dodgers outfielder Matt Kemp gets dragged in, some very weird and very wrong ideas about "black Jews," and, of course, the Holocaust.
Unless the tape in question is somehow proved to be a fabrication of such maliciously doctored skill that it'd make Gennifer Flowers blush, Sterling will receive what has to be the largest fine in National Basketball Association history, be suspended, and then be "encouraged"—à la Marge Schott —to find a nice, non-racist fellow .01 percenter to sell the team to.
But even if the league eventually has this pustulant boil of a man forcibly removed, it'd be perfectly understandable if you were driven to pound nails into the floor with your forehead when you start thinking about the gargantuan pile of ducats that will be his ultimate "punishment."
Sterling purchased the Clippers in 1981 for a mere $12 million, and Forbesrecently estimated the team's total value at $575 million. But consider the recent purchase price of two relatively moribund franchises, the Sacramento Kings and the Milwaukee Bucks—$550 million and $536 million, respectively, far higher than anticipated. Neither are located in Los Angeles, nor do they boast transcendent stars such as Chris Paul and Blake Griffin. It's not inconceivable that the price tag Sterling slaps on the Clippers might approach $1 billion.
And he still gets to treat the minorities who live in his housing projects far worse than he ever did the far more famous, basketball-playing people in his employ. Racism pays! Hooray!
If there are still any questions about why Sterling would own a basketball team—and pursue a relationship with a mixed-race woman—Indiana Pacers forward David West unpacked the historical underpinnings of the octogenarian's behavior perfectly: "Sterling basically articulated Plantation Politics…Make money off the Bucks/Lay with the Women/No Association in Public good or bad."

EMTs Break Into Hot Car to Save Doll
(NEWSER) – Think of it as practice: After EMTs in Hoboken got multiple calls about a baby in a hot car, they rushed to the scene, bashed in a window ... and discovered that the child in distress was actually a doll, reports ABC 7. It seems the 2-year-old granddaughter of Kitty Mieles left it in grandma's car seat. "The guys that were on the ambulance are taking a beating by their coworkers, but it's all in good fun," the president of the Hoboken Ambulance Corps tells CBS New York. "But again, I'd rather err on the side of caution. You can replace a window. You can't replace a life."
