Banged up, Allen Stanford back in jail after brawl
HOUSTON (Reuters) - Allen Stanford, the alleged mastermind of a $7 billion fraud, is back in his jail cell after suffering a mild concussion, broken nose and two black eyes in a prison brawl last week, his lawyer said on Monday.
Stanford, 59, was injured in a fight on Thursday with a fellow inmate at the Joe Corley Detention Facility in Conroe, Texas, and was hospitalized over the weekend.
"I don't have any reason to believe that he was targeted in some way because of who he is," said Kent Schaffer, Stanford's court-appointed attorney. Schaffer said he had no details of the altercation, or who else was involved.
"He's in reasonably good spirits although he was feeling a lot of physical discomfort," Schaffer told Reuters. "He was trying to get rest yesterday afternoon after he returned to the jail."
Stanford has called conditions in the prison "intolerable" and has requested a transfer out of the facility, 40 miles north of Houston, where he has been held since his arrest in June.
He has denied allegations that he ran a Ponzi scheme targeting clients of his offshore bank in Antigua. He faces life in prison if convicted of all 21 criminal charges against him.
Last month, Stanford spent five days in the hospital undergoing heart tests.

Yeah...Friday!!
A guy is on a date with this girl, so he takes her to Lover's Lane.
When they get up there, she says, ''I have to be honest with you, I'm a hooker.'' The guy thinks about this for a short time and says it's okay. He agrees to pay her $25 and they start having sex.
After they finish, the guy says, ''I have to be honest with you now. I'm a cab driver and it'll cost you $25 for me to drive you back into town.''
a Joke for Friday
Late one Saturday night, a woman was awakened by her phone. "Hello." A breathless voice on the line rushed into a lengthy speech. "Mom, this is Susan and I'm sorry I woke you up but I had to call because I'm going to be a little late getting home 'cause Daddy's car got a flat tire but it's not my fault. Honest! I don't know what happened. The tire just went flat while we were in the movie. Please don't be mad, okay?" Since the woman didn't have a daughter, she knew it was a wrong number. "I'm sorry, dear, but you must have misdialed. I don't have a daughter." There was a long pause. "Gosh, Mom, I didn't think you'd be this mad!"

NO EGGSATURATION..THIS EGG IS ENORMOUS..
HONEYOYE FALLS, NY -- Chris Schauerman of Honeyoye Falls went into the chicken coop on his farm last week, when he found an ailing chicken lying there.
"I came up to the chicken and I nudged her," said Schauerman. "She was barely able to pick her head up before it fell back down to the ground."
That chicken, known as Roberta died later that night, but not before laying a massive egg.
"I just couldn't believe it," he said. "You open up the chicken coop and sitting inside the nest with five other eggs is just this behemoth."
The egg, called Little Roberta, was two and a half times the normal size of an egg, and weighed 138 grams, over a quarter of a pound.
"I was pretty excited when I saw it but also kind of sad because I knew the chicken put forth its last effort to give this egg," said Schauerman.
Schauerman says he doesn't have major plans for the egg, other than to cook it up in a giant omelet.
This Hawk Bit Off More Than He Can Chew
This is the moment a tiny but very angry kingbird hitched a piggyback ride on a red tail hawk.
The feisty little flyer began attacking the bird of prey after it ventured too near its nest.
Pat Gaines, 41, captured the moment at Bonny Lake park in Colorado.
'I've never seen a hawk harassed so much. The kingbird pecked at its head as the hawk flew away screaming,' she said.
