Britney Spears wants to become a teacher. The "Womanizer" singer is growing increasingly frustrated living life in the constant media glare and would love a 'normal' career.

Her cousin Alli Sims said: "Britney would always say, "Maybe I just want to be a teacher. I just want to do something on a normal level. I've been something for so long.'"

Three armed robbers reportedly stole $300,000 worth of dog jewelry from a salesman in a Denver-area Starbucks.

The 64-year-old Kansas City resident was in town for a Denver-area dog show and stopped at Starbucks at 9700 S. Parker Road. He had just returned to his car when a trio of masked men suddenly appeared, including one holding a gun, according to Parker police spokeswoman Elise Penington.

Starbucks, which had been losing money since middle of 2008, will stop brewing decaffeinated coffee after noon to save $400 million by September. But the decaf version will still be available in the afternoon since it takes just four minutes to make a fresh brew.

In a statement, Starbucks explained, "For many of our stores, the demand for decaf is greatly reduced in the afternoon... With our current standard of continually brewing decaf after 12 noon regardless of demand, we have seen a high amount of waste."

Many restaurants have a policy of giving police officers free cups of coffee or discounted food but a Chicago police officer was suspended for 18 months and recommended for counseling after she demanded free coffee and pastries from area Starbucks.

Most police departments have unwritten rules against officers either accepting or demanding anything free, although those rules generally aren't enforced. Many restaurants feel it enhances safety to have police officers stop in for coffee, a snack or a meal. But officers traditionally offer to pay before a restaurant tells them it's on the house or discounted.

A Daytona Beach, Fla., police officer was fired for demanding free coffee from a Starbucks and threatening to respond slowly if employees didn't give him a free latte.

Although Starbucks has a policy of giving police officers free regular coffee, it doesn't hand out specialty coffees without charge.
