Ya never saw this on Dragnet...
A Dearborn man learned this morning that when you handcuff your wife to the bed, you make sure you know where the key is first. Honey, where's the key?
Ummmmmmmm...ummmmmmmmmm...
Dearborn Police officers responded to a call at 7:15 a.m. today by the man requesting help, Sgt. Ray Patrick said. Yeah...hi...
They had to use a universal key to free the woman. Muldoon! Bring the blowtorch!
Easy, ma'am. Just kidding.
I think it was more of an intimate relationship than an unlawful imprisonment, Patrick said. ...and I'll bet every patrol car in Dearborn ran on it.

Dear Jitch Protector of the Nebraskans3505, there are exercises one can do to reduce stuttering, and the anxiety that causes stuttering. As for the rest of your statement, you only show your ignorance by such things.
Who happens to be named after a prominent historical figure.
JoyceLynn Aryan Nation Campbell, Honszlynn Hinler Jeannie Campbell and Adolf Hitler Campbell. Good names for a trio of toddlers? Heath and Deborah Campbell think so. The Holland Township couple has picked those names and the oldest child, Adolf Hitler Campbell, turns 3 today. Happy burthday, Adolf Hitler
Happy burthday to you
This has given rise to a problem, because the ShopRite supermarket in Greenwich Township has refused to make a cake for young Adolf's birthday. The ShopRite in Greenwich Township has also refused to make a cake bearing the name of Campbell's daughter, JoyceLynn Aryan Nation Campbell, who turns 2 in February. JoyceLynn Aryan Nation! Y'all mind yer manners er I'll give yas the whut fer!
Honszlynn Hinler Jeannie Campbell, a girl named for Schutzstaffel head Heinrich Himmler, turns 1 in April. Yes, sir, that Heinrich Hinler shure had some snappy lookin uniforms.
"We believe the request ... to inscribe a birthday wish to Adolf Hitler is inappropriate," said Karen Meleta, a ShopRite spokeswoman. The Campbells turned down the market's offer to make a cake with enough room for them to write their own inscription and can't understand what all of the fuss is about. Yay-ah, what's all this heah fuss all about.
"ShopRite can't even make a cake for a 3-year-old," said Deborah Campbell, 25, who is Heath's wife of three years and the mother of the children. "That's sad." I'll translate...cha-ching! Although they'd probably settle up for a six pack and a carton of Marlboros. Additional background from another story...
The Campbells have swastikas in each room of their home, the rented half of a one-story duplex just outside Milford, a borough in Hunterdon County. They say they aren't racists but believe races shouldn't mix. Really. God forbid their contribution to the master race's gene pool gets tainted...
The Campbells said they wanted their children to have unique names and didn't expect the names to cause problems. Despite the cake refusal, the Campbells said they don't expect the names to cause problems later, such as when the children start school. ...and if they follow in mama and daddy's footsteps, it's not like they're ever gonna need jobs.
"I just figured that they're just names," Deborah Campbell said. "They're just kids. They're not going to hurt anybody." Other then the fact that they're probably doomed for life. But that's not your problem, right, mama?
Heath Campbell said some people like the names but others are shocked to hear them. "They say, 'He (Hitler) killed all those people.' I say, 'You're living in the wrong decade. That Hitler's gone,'" he said. "They're just names, you know," he said. "Yeah, they (Nazis) were bad people back then. But my kids are little. They're not going to grow up like that. Other kids get their cake. I get a hard time," he said. "It's not fair to my children. How can a name be offensive?" he asked. "Why not call the kid Peace?" Nah. That ain't cool like Adolph Hitler Aryan Nation Hienrich Hinler...
The Campbell home is kept neat aside from scattered toys and other evidence three children live there. It's small, but it's what the Campbells can afford. Disabilities, the couple says, have left both out of work: Heath Campbell can't landscape or pump gas because he has emphysema, and Deborah can't waitress because she has a bad back. They live on Social Security payments. Yep, I gots the emferzema and shes got the bad back. If she wasn't on it all the time, pumping out little Aryans, maybe she wouldn't have a bad back.
In the foyer, Heath Campbell, who said he has German ancestry and a relative who fought for the SS, took off boots he said were worn by a Nazi solider named Daniel. Wait'll they read that in hell. "Hey, Daniel! Some nutbag American welfare scammer's got your boots!"
He laid them next to a skull with a swastika on its forehead, the first of dozens of swastikas seen by the Campbells' rare guests. Rare guests? You're kidding?
There are swastikas on walls, on jackets, on the freezer and on a pillow. The family car had swastikas, Heath Campbell said, until New Jersey's Department of Children and Families told him they could endanger the children. The swastikas, Heath Campbell said, are symbols of peace and balance. He considers them art. "It doesn't mean hatred to me," he said. Deborah Campbell said a swastika "doesn't really have a meaning. It's just a symbol." Yep, we just loves them there swaztstickersswatstickars crookedy line lookin thingies.
Heath Campbell said he doesn't want to force his views on his children, in part because he had views forced on him. He said he also teaches them nonviolence. Geez, he's like the Nazi Ghandi...
He said Adolf Hitler, Aryan Nation and Hinler would be able to make their own decisions about race. ...as long as they're the raht ones.
Penugonda, Dec. 15: The white piglet that began circumambulating the dhwaja sthambham of the Venkateswara Swamy temple on Sunday, collapsed at about for 4.30 pm on Monday. Thousands of people had watched the piglet which circumambuled the pillar well into the second day at Sidhantham village in Penugonda mandal in the West Godavari.
The piglet had been continuously circling the dhwaja sthambham with occasional breaks, without accepting any food A veterinarian found that the animal had become weak and its pulse rate had fallen. As the piglet lay on the floor, devotees offered it dry grass, shifted it on to a gunny bag and covered it with a cloth.
Devotees, temple staff and a veterinary doctor are keeping an eye on the animal, whose condition is critical. Prominent vedic pandit Chirravuri Krishna Somayajulu said, "The piglet has taken up deeksha by observing fast in the presence of Venkateswara Swamy. On December 16, Dhanur Masam will begin and the doors of Vaikuntam will be opened." Devotees fear it may not survive that long.

Let's deport the "Boobs not Bombs" crowd to Paris!
I know that might be considered a war crime, but there is a certain cosmic poetry to the image.

In cold weather the circuit breakers on the left would probably short out. But if the ones on the right pop, Katie bar the door, put up tsunami warnings for Java.
Pic deleted. Folks, the Burg is a site for both men and women readers. The cheesecake shots we see for the Bloid are fine, but full frontal female nudity is something we avoid so as not to offend our readers. Thx, AoS.

The least they could do is provide them with free transportation in one of these.

Back when I was a hungry university student, I considered taking a job as a nude model for the art classes. The clearly wasn't nearly as much competition here for such jobs as in Paris; the advertised pay was 4-5 times the minimum wage at the time. Looking at the tape, one wonders whether some of the Parisian models have plotted to reduce the number of their competitors by inducing them to voluntarily seek pneumonia.
Moroccan human rights organizations have lashed out at what they described as "inhumane" rituals practiced in the popular Bouya Omar shrine, known for its exorcism activities where patients are brutally beaten, starved, and chained in attempts to drive out evil spirits from their bodies.
Bouya Omar means Father Omar and it refers to a revered person whose shrine is one of the most famous around the Kingdom. Rights activists in Morocco, however, are pushing for the shrine to be closed, arguing it is the best way to put an end to the violations that take place inside it and to protect patients from being manipulated and deceived into thinking they will be cured that way.
Many families take their members who suffer from mental andor psychological disorders to the shrine and leave them there to be cured.
"There they are chained and beaten under the pretext that these practices, together with the blessing of the wali (revered Omar), will cure their mental and psychological ailments," Abdul-Salam Adeeb, head of the Association Marocaine des Droits Humains (AMDH), told AlArabiya.net.
The rights activist and AMDH member also condemned what he termed as "Bouya Omar violations", calling upon human rights organizations in Morocco to join forces and fight this problem.
"We have to put pressure on the government and on concerned officials to close down the shrine and refer its patients to specialized rehabs," he added.
Khaled Cherkaoui Smouni, President of the Centre Marocain des Droits de l'Homme (CMDH), revealed that some of the patients actually died after being confined for months, and sometimes years, inside the shrine while others sustained permanent deformities.
"This is in addition to the psychological damage," Smouni told AlArabiya.net. "Some go to the shrine with minor psychological problems, but after staying for a long time inside the shrine, they develop severe disorders that are hard to deal with clinically."

I wonder if we could drop off some auto company and union executives there for a few weeks.
LONDON: Thirtysix-year-old Colour Sergeant Krishna Bahadur Dura made the ultimate sacrifice fighting for Britain in Afghanistan but his widow has now been warned that she and her children born here may be deported to Nepal.
Dura's widow Uma returned to her UK home last week after travelling to Nepal with her two young daughters to bury her husband. But Home Office rules do not automatically allow Gurkhas' widows to remain here.
Uma has been told that she may have to leave even though her four-year-old daughter was born in Britain and her 10-year-old is settled at school in Canterbury, Kent.
"My husband gave his life for this country and for the Crown. I love this country and want to give my children a good education. I would love to stay and don't want to go back to Nepal. If anyone can help me I will be very grateful," 26-year-old Uma told a newspaper on Monday.
Uma came to England in 2002 and settled with Krishna in Canterbury. Actress Joanna Lumley, who has been campaigning for citizenship rights for Gurkhas, has offered her help to Uma.
"It is unthinkable that his family should have to worry about whether they will be allowed to stay in Britain. This man lost his life fighting in the British Army," Lumley said.
"He is yet another example of the magnificent service that the Gurkhas have given to us over generations. I am calling on the Government to end the uncertainty and announce their right to live with us immediately."
The Home Office said, "We cannot comment on individual cases." But a Home Office source said, "She is assured of her right to remain here until 2012. Then she'd have to apply to stay in the UK like everyone else. She'd clearly have a very strong case."

Probably need her house for some illegal dole collecting Jihad preaching Pakistani imam and his wife and fourteen kids.

If she was a welfare collecting, illiterate, Somali criminal that faced execution for some despicable crime back home she'd be in like Flynn.
Maybe she should come at it from another direction.

On a recent snowy evening, Mr. Ehlert stopped his van near a derelict U.S. listening station on a hilltop in former West Berlin. During the Cold War, the U.S.'s National Security Agency eavesdropped on the Soviet bloc from here. Now the hill is crawling with boars. One by one, they emerged from the trees, grunting in expectation, until 15 plump hogs surrounded the van. "Someone is clearly feeding them," says Mr. Ehlert. That's illegal, because it leads to inappropriate boar-human mingling.

The Detroit Free Press and Detroit News will become the first major metropolitan newspapers in the U.S. to end daily home delivery, the papers announced Tuesday.
"We're fighting for our survival," said David Hunke, publisher of the Free Press and CEO of the Detroit Media Partnership, a joint operating agreement between the two papers. "We think its time to take a geometric leap forward in what we've known as newspapers."
Otherwise known as 'surrender' ...
Beginning sometime in the first three months of 2009, the two newspapers will provide home delivery on Thursdays, Fridays and Sundays only, Hunke said during a news conference in Detroit, Michigan. Papers will be on newsstands every day, and the papers' online offerings will be expanded, he said.
I'd imagine that home delivery will drop to near-nothing in short order ...
"The dynamics of delivering information to audiences has changed forever due to technology," Hunke said in a statement on the plan.
Costs for paper, ink and fuel to deliver papers were forcing the papers into cuts in newsroom talent that would damage their abilities to report the news, Hunke said. Paying for delivery vehicles to cover 300,000 miles nightly, he said, did not make economic sense at a time when 63 percent of readers have broadband Internet access. As for those without computers and broadband access at home, "this isn't necessarily gonna be the best news for them," Hunke said.
"Our economics have become unsustainable," said Jonathan Wolman, publisher and editor of the Detroit News. "We've got to embrace reality, and we've got to embrace innovation," said Paul Anger, executive editor of the Free Press, owned by Gannett Corp., the country's largest newspaper publisher. The Free Press, the nation's 20th-largest daily paper, had a daily circulation of 298,243 and 605,000 on Sunday as of the end of September. Those numbers were down almost 7 percent and 4 percent, respectively, from the previous six months, according to the Audit Bureau of Circulations.
The Detroit News, the country's 49th largest newspaper, is owned by MediaNews Group and had a daily circulation of 178,280 in September. It does not publish a Sunday edition.
The Free Press' circulation is down 19 percent and the News is down 22 percent since 2002, the Free Press reported Tuesday.
Pay attention, NYT ...
Hunke said the newspapers would face about a 9 percent reduction in their workforces under the plan. However no layoffs in their newsrooms, which he described as "fiercely competitive," were planned. The Detroit Media Partnership employs more than 2,100 people, CNN affiliate WDIV-TV reported. Personnel cuts would be negotiated with the papers' unions, Hunke said.
"We believe it will break the cycle of buyouts and downsizing" that has become common in the newspaper industry, Wolman said.
Newspaper publishers have had a rough year. Across the industry, daily circulation dropped 4.6 percent in the six months ending in September.
Gannett has been in the process of cutting 10 percent of its workforce across its 85 newspapers nationwide. McClatchy Co., the nation's second-largest newspaper company, has been pursuing cuts at its papers, including the Miami Herald. Tribune Co., which owns the Chicago Tribune and Los Angeles Times, among others, announced earlier this month it was filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.
The East Valley Tribune in Mesa, Arizona, a 100,000-circulation newspaper owned by Freedom Newspapers, announced in October it would move from a daily to a four-day publication beginning in January. The national Christian Science Monitor is moving its daily content online and dropping its daily print edition next year.
Anger said Tuesday that Detroit readers have been seeking those kinds of changes in how they get their news. "Generations of readers are telling us they'd like information delivered in a different way," he said, promising "a fast, reading provocative news report in print as well as online."
The Detroit papers will price their three-day home delivery subscriptions at $12 a month, including a daily edition delivered by e-mail, Hunke said. Wolman said mail subscriptions would be available to home-bound readers.

Too bad they Lame Stream Media stopped journaling daily events (once upon a time the definition of journalist) and instead became activist writers. And now they are paying for printing nothing but trash anymore.
