JERSEY CITY TO SNOOKIWe're Not Afraid to ARREST Your Ass!
Snooki and Jwoww will be on some seriously thin ice when they begin shooting their new reality show in Jersey City ... because the cops will be assigned to watch their asses AT ALL TIMES.
officials in Jersey City refused to a grant a permit to shoot the show UNLESS they agreed to some seriously strict rules.
1) The show must allow at least four Jersey City PD officers to be stationed at Jwoww and Snooki's home at all times.
2) The cops will stay with the cast and crew when they leave the home. Cops have agreed to keep an appropriate distance from the operation, so they don't get in the way of production.
3) If MORE cops are called in to handle an incident due to events related to the show, producers MUST reimburse Jersey City for all related costs.
Officials have also made it clear ... cops are taking the situation very seriously and will take action ... even on the cast ... if any state or city laws are broken.
Ultimately, producers agreed ... and got the permit. Production is scheduled to begin later this month.

White House to announce 'accommodation' on contraceptive policy
The White House is expected to announce as early as Friday a plan to accommodate religious organizations and others that are opposed to a new policy requiring contraceptive coverage for employees.
A senior adviser to President Obama confirmed to Fox News that there will be an "accommodation" -- but advisers said the announcement does not represent a "compromise."
The move comes as several prominent Democratic lawmakers have urged the Obama administration to reconsider its position, which some consider an infringement of religious freedom. Vice President Biden said in an interview a day earlier that he was "determined" to work out the dispute.
Biden is among a string of Catholic administration officials who reportedly voiced concerns with the policy as it was being hashed out. Obama announced the rule in January, requiring organizations to provide birth control coverage without a co-pay for employees. The rule exempts churches and houses of worship but would apply to other religious organizations in 2013.
Catholic leaders have vigorously opposed the policy. In Congress, Republicans have threatened to overturn the rule if the administration does not change course. The issue has also taken center stage at the Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington this week, and on the Republican presidential campaign trail.
Still, Obama has rallied Democratic allies to his side in defense of the policy and its intent to expand access for women to contraceptive services. Claims that the change does not mark a compromise may indicate an unwillingness by the administration to be seen as backpedaling on the issue.
