 Denise Richards' estranged husband Aaron Phypers demands spousal support amid ongoing divorce Aaron Phypers has filed new court documents requesting immediate spousal support from Denise Richards, citing financial hardship.

 CANADIAN COURT TO SENTENCE NIGERIAN TEACHER FOR BEATING STUDENTS A Canadian court has found a Nigerian teacher guilty of punishing students with a cane - calling it assault with a weapon.  Although it's normal for teachers to strike students with a cane in Africa, it is against the law in Canada and John Olubobokun now has a case to answer for beating nine students. Olubobokun, a former director of a private Christian school in Saskatoon, Canada - Legacy Christian Academy from 2003 to 2007 - was charged with beating nine students with a wooden paddle. The court heard testimonies from the students and ruled that how the teacher disciplined students negated Section 43 law of Canada. Olubobokun now awaits sentencing.
