Killer whale my left foot!

Daily Mail

A couple were left shocked when they discovered the rotting body of a sea monster while walking along a beach.


Margaret and Nick Flippence made the incredible find as they exercised their dogs at Bridge of Don, Aberdeen.

Mr Flippence, 59, who lives nearby, said: 'We were stunned. I thought, "oh my God what is it?"

A spokesman for the Natural History Museum said: 'We have spoken to one of our mammals curators, and they have confirmed the animal is probably a long-finned pilot whale – Globicephala melas.

'Apparently it’s not unusual for these to wash up on the shore.'

Rob Deville, a marine life expert at London Zoo, said the body could be that of a killer whale or a smaller pilot whale.
Whale expert Mark Simmonds told the Sun: 'it died a long time ago and tides caused the body to wash ashore.'

How is this constitutional for the federal government to take my money and sponsor a gay film festival?

The Feds are activity promoting a life style billions of people around the world find offensive and immoral based on the teachings of Christianity, Judaism and Islam.

Yet, it’s a big problem to say a little prayer in school to the supreme being of their choice?

But, homosexual sex is all good and needs to be touted worldwide at taxpayers’ expense?

“Everybody’s perfect!” says the poster for a gay film festival sponsored by the U.S. Embassy in Bulgaria.

The festival, Sofia Pride ‘11, will feature screenings of Milk and other films in Sofia, Bulgaria from June 1 to 29. The American, German, French, Swiss and British embassies are jointly sponsoring the event.

“The series features one movie selected by each of the five sponsoring embassies, and aims to promote acceptance of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender (LGBT) rights in Bulgaria by examining the different issues and challenges which members of the LGBT community face in today’s world. All films will include Bulgarian subtitles,” a press release says.

The U.S. is kicking off the festival by showing Milk, a film about the first openly gay elected official in California. “The screening will be followed by an after-show party at My Mojito Club Sofia,” the press release says.

“He ain’t worth it, Honey!”


Daily Mail reports hanging precariously outside a seventh-storey window, this is the dramatic moment a bride-to-be was saved from committing suicide in her wedding dress. The desperate woman had clambered out on to the window ledge of a residential building in Changchun, Jilin province in China, dressed in a flowing ivory wedding gown.

As horrified onlookers tried to talk her away from danger, the bride-to-be was about to plunge to the floor before being saved by a local community officer.

Where the hell was thew police?

This is ridiculous for something lie this to happen. You walk the streets without getting your head cut off?

Disgusting!


UK Telegraph reports Jennifer Mills-Westley, the British woman beheaded in a Tenerife supermarket, tried to avoid her tormentor by taking refuge in an office doorway.

The retired 60-year-old from Norwich was stabbed to death and beheaded in the horrific attack on Friday.
She alerted a security guard in the social security office that she had been subjected to "threatening behaviour" from an unwashed vagrant.
Her tormentor, a 28-year-old homeless man called Deyan Valentinov Deyanov, was well known in the popular holiday resort for his unpredictable and sometimes violent behaviour.

Mrs Mills-Westley waited for him to move on, and alerted a security guard in the social security office where she sheltered that she had been subjected to "threatening behaviour".
It is unclear whether the Briton, a 60-year-old retired road safety officer from Norwich, was aware of the man's dangerous reputation. After a few minutes Deyanov left and the danger seemed to have passed.

I reported on this story last year and now the famous topless coffee shop is back ion the news.




Daily Mail reports a coffee shop with topless waitresses, which has caused a storm of protest in a small town, has been forced to close after it put up a 'boobies wanted' sign.

Grand View Topless Coffee Shop in Vassalboro, Maine, hit the headlines when it opened in 2009, offering to serve customers semi-nude. And despite a wave of protest from local campaigners in its home town of fewer than 5,000 people - and one high profile arson attack - the shop had until now, managed to keep business going.

But the controversial store's topless waitresses will finally have to get dressed and leave after town officials ruled that it has been putting up signs illegally.

Bosses insist the order has nothing to do with the shop's nudity policy - or the fact that the signs offered a topless car wash and advertised: 'Boobies wanted'.
They say simply putting up the new signs without permission violated zoning rules.

Donald Crabtree, the owner of Grand View Coffee Shop, which uses topless male and female waiters, said he had given up after fighting to exist for two years.

'I wanted to have some fun; I wanted to see people smile,' he told local paper the Maine Morning Sentinel. 'I started the topless coffee shop to do that, and it did. But now my smile's gone.


'I've fought that fight for more than two years now and no matter how hard I try to make this work, somebody sabotages me.'

'These people are bound and determined to shut you down. I'm singled out, but I'm just trying to make a living like everyone else.'

The shop opened in 2009 to a storm of protest from its rural community and prompted Vassalboro and many other communities to bring in rules to regulate where and when sexually oriented businesses could operate.
A few months later, in June 2009, the store's original location was burnt to the ground.

The man charged for being responsible for the arson, Raymond Bellavance Jr., who was in a relationship with one of the waitresses, is still awaiting trial.

Crabtree, 43, who has since run the business from a trailer, finally decided to close down after he was forced to take down the nude car wash and 'boobies wanted' signs.

The town's code officer had given him a week to remove them or face legal action.

If the residents of the town don’t want a toppless coffee shop, then that pretty much should be the way it is. Is it so hard to have a regular coffee shop with good food being the single most important factor as to the success of the business?

Gimmie a break!

Now a bikini coffee shop….

UK Telegraph reports the footballer was unhurt in the crash on the 405 freeway which occurred on Friday morning as he was driving his eldest son Brooklyn, 12, to school.

Brooklyn was also unhurt.

Beckham's black Cadillac crashed into the back of a gold Mitsubishi which had broken down in the southbound car pool (car-sharing) lane, according to a Californian Highway Patrol spokesman.

The 40-year-old male driver of the other car was taken to a local hospital complaining of neck pain but was understood to be not seriously hurt.
Beckham's car was said to be one of many that swerved to avoid the broken down car.
The Mitsubishi reportedly only lost its bumper in the crash, which happened near Torrance, in south Los Angeles, on one of the city's busiest freeways.
Beckham and his family have been based in California since he joined local football team Los Angeles Galaxy in 2007.

The midfielder, who celebrated his 36th birthday at the beginning of the week, attended last month's royal wedding with his pregnant wife, Victoria, before flying to Texas for a game against FC Dallas two days later.
The Californian Highway Patrol spokesman said: "Yesterday at approximately 9.13am he [Beckham] was involved with a collision on the southbound 405 freeway just south of Artesia Boulevard.

I bet the guy who Beckham hit will have a chronic injury as soon as he found out who hit him.

So now the details are beginning to come to light that Obama did act like Obama by taking seemingly forever to make a decision. For his sake, his 16 hours of indecision did not cost the mission to get bin Laden.


Daily Mail reports Barack Obama kept military commanders hanging by declaring he would 'sleep on it' before taking 16 hours to give the go-ahead to raid Bin Laden's compound.

Hit squads of specialist Navy Seals - who were not even told who they were preparing to capture - had practised the mission at two reconstructions of the terror chiefs sprawling compound.

The mission looked set to be given the all clear last Thursday when analysts confirmed beyond doubt that Bin Laden was in busy town of Abbottabad in northern Pakistan.

But the president stunned officials when he told a national security meeting that he wanted more time to think - and disappeared out of the room.

'I'm not going to tell you what my decision is now - I'm going to go back and think about it some more,' said Obama, according to the New York Times. He then added 'I'm going to make a decision soon.'

The head of the CIA and other senior intelligence officers who were keen to proceed were left tense as they waited for the president's decision.

But the next morning after 16 hours, Obama summoned four top aides to the White House Diplomatic Room. Before they could speak, the president put his fist on the table and declared 'It's a go'.
With those three words, the greatest military operation in recent history began. Had it not been for heavy cloud cover on Saturday, troops would have been deployed then.

But they waited another day, and reached Pakistan just before midnight on Sunday evening. Obama refused to tell Pakistan about the mission in case it was leaked by jihadist sympathisers within the administration and Bin Laden took flight.

Luckily, the four U.S. helicopters were not detected by Pakistan's military who would have been quick to take action against the uninvited aircrafts.

After a 40-minute raid, the details of which are still emerging, Bin Laden was declared dead having received a bullet to the brain.
Millions of U.S. citizens still scarred by the atrocities of September 11 took to the streets to celebrate news that the world's most wanted terrorists had been killed.

I’m so happy to see the conservative wave just isn’t happening in the United States. The good people of Canada have voted and told the world that Liberalism doesn’t work.

This a new day in Canada!

New York Times reports the Conservative Party will again govern Canada, this time with a majority, following the country’s fourth election in seven years


In addition, incomplete results late Monday night clearly indicated that the New Democratic Party, a movement with socialist roots, will form the official opposition, which would mean that the vote is likely to significantly reshape Canada’s political left.

It was the first time since Canada became a nation in 1867 that the Liberals, the most successful political party in the country’s history, finished in third place.

The unexpected rise over the campaign’s final days of the New Democrats, a party historically distinguished by its lock on third place, was also devastating for the Bloc Québécois, a party that has championed Quebec separatism for the last 20 years. It was reduced to just two seats and its defeated candidates included Gilles Duceppe, its long time leader.

For Prime Minister Stephen Harper, obtaining a majority was the overriding focus of his campaign. In the end, he did much better than the dozen seats he needed to secure the 155 required for control, acquiring 165, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation projected. The New Democratic Party won 105 seats, well above its previous record of 45, while the Liberals held only 35. Elizabeth May, the leader of the Green Party, became its first, and only, elected member.

The Liberal leader, Michael Ignatieff, who had appeared in danger of losing his seat, said he would remain in his post if that was the desire of his party.

“Democracy teaches hard lessons,” he told supporters in Toronto.

A flood of on-the-one-hand, on-the-other commentary in the final days of campaign portrayed the rise of the New Democrats as both a gift for the Conservatives (by splitting left-of-center votes with the Liberals) and a menace to the them (by stealing away seats). The early returns suggested that the result was more of the former.

This is what aired on Pakistani TV after U.S. forces found and destroyed Osama Bin Laden like the dog was. Too bad he was buried at sea because I wanted to piss on his grave.
