Cops Ketch Up With Condiment Crime Suspect
2:17am Thursday June 17, 2010

A 74-year-old woman is being investigated in connection with a year-long spree of 'condiment' crimes in Idaho.

Joy L. Cassidy was picked up by Boise police, moments after she was spotted pouring a jar of mayonnaise into Ada County library's book return box.

Since May 2009, the library has been hit by a spate of similar attacks.

Employees have reported finding books in the drop box covered in corn syrup and ketchup, as well as mayonnaise.

Cassidy has been released from jail but faces a charge of malicious injury to property.

As yet, there is no indication as to why she may have committed at least 10 condiment-related crimes.

Taken out by lightening so no insurance due to an 'act of god'.

Enough to make you give up ham or turn to Islam.

So it was suicide

Boozing woman mistaken for Justin Bieber

Police showed up at a bar in Maryland, USA, after a concerned member of the public called 911 to report that 16-year-old pop star Justin Bieber was knocking back beers with his mates.
Obviously the Maryland police had never encountered a Biebian before, and the suspect was asked to produce ID to prove he wasn't the Beeb and he was over the legal drinking age.

The cops dropped the issue when the Bieber-lookalike turned out to be a 27-year-old woman called Katie!

Dozens of human heads found on Southwest flight

CHICAGO/NEW YORK (Reuters) - Officials in Arkansas are investigating a shipment of 40 to 60 human heads found by Southwest Airlines employees at a cargo facility last week in Little Rock, the Pulaski County coroner said on Thursday.

The shipment of three separate containers was discovered last Wednesday at the facility after employees saw the package was "not labelled properly," Southwest spokeswoman Ashley Rogers said.

Employees opened the box last Wednesday evening, found the heads and contacted local police, who turned the heads over to the local coroner.

"They were basically in plastic containers with lids that are not air sealed," Coroner Garland Camper said. "They were duct taped with minimal information to disclose what was inside."

The heads were being shipped to a Medtronic Inc facility in Fort Worth, Texas. They were for educational training for neurosurgeons studying ear, nose and throat procedures, said Medtronic spokesman Brian Henry.

Camper said there were between 40 and 60 heads packed in three containers. Henry said the company had ordered four heads and 40 skull parts, or the portion of the head with the ear.

"In this particular instance, they were going to be used for educational training, which is routinely and commonly done," Henry said.

It is not uncommon for heads used for research and educational training to be shipped commercially, he said. Medtronic, the world's largest independent medical device company, employed Arkansas-based JLS Consulting to supply and ship the head and head parts.

"It's a common practice," Henry said. "This is a very uncommon result."

Calls and an e-mail to JLS Consulting were not immediately returned.

The 24-hour Southwest cargo facility is one of 70 operated by the low-cost airline and typically handles shipments of items like flowers and sea food, Rogers said.

Camper, the Pulaski Country coroner, said his office took possession of the heads after being contacted by officials in Little Rock.

"Since then we have learned that the paperwork that we have asked for does not quite meet the same description of the specimens that we have," he said. "So we've got some discrepancies there."

Camper said he wanted to confirm that the heads were not being shipped as part of a black market for human body parts.

"We definitely want to make sure this is not a part of something like that," he said.
Camper said that he has never encountered a case like this in his career as a coroner.

Sex and the City on a Girls Night Out

Maybe it's six years of attending an all-girls school but something in me feels slightly queasy when invited to a "girls night out".


Nights out with female friends can be the elixir of life - particularly if they are unplanned.


The best of them can often occur after a bad break-up, or career crisis or a feeling of being in a rut.


One emerges (usually hungover) as if having stepped out of a warm bath of empathy. You are known, you are understood, things will be okay.


But organised "girls nights out" are a special kind of horror, someone else's idea of fun – usually a marketing department who think that in order to have fun women must drink pink drinks and talk about shoes and clothes and men. And then see a movie maybe – involving self-absorbed, repulsively materialistic women who the marketing department think that you (in your squalid, suburban, unglamorous, derivative lives) desperately wish to emulate.


Everyone from marketing departments in hotels to day spas to pubs and clubs exercise their (very tiny) imaginations wondering what it is that girls on these all-female nights out will enjoy.


These might include half-price facials at the hotel and a bottle of "bubbles" (to give it its girlie parlance) or a clothes swapping party or for the bride-to-be some risque dancing studs and penis straws.


They do not of course involve the company of men – except to leer at (in the form of masseurs, bar staff or the "studs") bitch about, or agonise over. That men (particularly straight men) may be invited to the table as equals is unthinkable. That doesn't happen on a girl's night out.


Men, in this world, are the "other" – they may as well be a separate species, from Mars – or is it Venus? After all the most popular show of the last decade, Sex And the City, featured men as sex objects, women as soul mates and gay men as confidantes.


Sadly for me, a recent event-managed "girls night out" involved a symphony of the most hackneyed cliches about contemporary women: hundreds of women jammed into a mediocre suburban pub each clutching a drink card that would enable them a sickly sweet pink cocktail (actually a pre-mix of – um, err something) that was meant to resemble the Cosmopolitans of more sophisticated drinking dens. Then raffles for (shiver) a year's supply of Tim Tams.

All this followed by a screening of SATC 2 – possibly the worst movie I have ever seen.


Jammed up at the bar clutching our pink drink tickets were women of all ages – all talking with anticipation about the movie. Some had come dressed as the characters. "I am Samantha", said my friend who had come straight from her job wearing a chic and simple Prada suit.


If there was a resemblance to Samantha it was so miniscule as to be indiscernible.


But throughout the room women invoked their shadow selves. "I am Carrie," said a woman wearing a massive heart pendant – but her homely, plumpish face looked nothing like SJP's gaunt and pained visage - and for that the Aussie doppelganger should be grateful.


For no one looked as miserable and wretched as SJP in the 146 minutes of SATC 2.


Just as the marketers of "girls nights out" suffer a paucity of imagination, so too did the makers of SATC 2.


A lot has been written about this movie, most of it bad – and there's no point rehashing bad reviews here – but the movie suffered from the same lack of imagination as the "girls nights out".


Characters were devoid of any kind of an interior life.


Or any kind of charitable aspect. Or any kind of daring or spark.


They got their kicks from expensive hotel rooms, shoes, a big diamond, man-servants, having two New York apartments, a full-time nanny (preferably one that was sexually non-threatening).


There was nothing brave or admirable or inspirational about the characters and when the movie finished the audience which had fired itself up only a few hours earlier on pink rocket fuel, clapped limply and went out into the wet night.


It's a shame that we have chosen our heroines so poorly. In this film they have let us down.

^^ Hold on to that one mate, good ones are rare, bugged if I can find one atm. A good one that is

Where's your attribution Doggy. Here's me thinking "Gee that Doggie can write. I wonder why he spent six years at a girl's school? Maybe he's a girl."
Then I remembered ...

You can expect a stern message from Oliver and I hope you are sorry.
