US police said a man's attempt to rob a convenience store was thwarted when a clerk demanded to see his gun. Authorities said a flustered Adam Alsarabi fled from the White Hen Pantry in Haverhill, Massachusetts and later was caught in the woods by police. No gun was found on him. Police said the 22-year-old entered the store and told the clerk to give him money and that he had a gun. The

I hate to say it, but I agree with berto. I could pick out Texas on a map, but not Dallas. Whereas not only could I tell you where Perth is, but could make a pretty good guess at Broome too.

A 42-year-old Bolivian man who fell asleep under an ant-infested tree has been killed by insect bites. Beni city Police Chief Rolando Ramos says that farmworker Santiago Ortiz had apparently been drinking before sitting down beneath a Palo Santo tree - a type noted for its aromatic wood and for hosting a particularly aggressive sort of ant. Ramos said on Tuesday that when police reached the

US police arrested a man who they said made up a story about being robbed to explain why he was walking around a city park naked. Police spokeswoman Katie Flood said the man was arrested and jailed Wednesday night on suspicion of indecent exposure and making a false statement to police. Police found the man naked in a Nebraska city park on Monday. He told police a man with a gun tried to ro

Read an article/blog today where the author listed his top 5 manliest moments. See the article here. He asked for readers to contribute theirs. I made a contribution, copied below, but wondered what others would consider their manliest moments. Holding my kids for the first time - is also up there with finding out my wife was pregnant. Probably has something to do with carrying on the genes.

Nope. I believe the IOTW is a subjective choice of DK, so if he likes it it doesn't matter how long it had been up.

Don't really want to get this argument going again, but have to qualify an earlier comment about it not being illegal to burn the NZ flag. The following quote is taken from Wikipedia, but I have confirmed the parliamentary act that is mentioned. In New Zealand, under the Flags, Emblems and Names Protection Act 1981 it is illegal to destroy the New Zealand flag with the intent of dishonouring

Would be interested in your opinion on my views fossil. Can understand that you might consider me p.c., but not so much the left. Admittedly NZ has a lot more socialist policy and laws than what I believe USA does, but my views on government intervention and capitalism would be considered right leaning here.

But vigilantism isn't? So because somebody is doing something I don't like, but which isn't illegal, I should break the law and assault them? Or should I remove their freedom of speech/expression? That would show not merely indifference, but a complete disregard for what the flag means to me and my country.....but that's me.

A flag code? Talk about bureaucracy gone wrong! What's wrong with having one simple rule - when in the US the US flag is placed in the most prominent position? I always knew the US virtually worshiped their flag, but had no idea it was to this extent or this codified.
