Police in Paris are dealing with traffic anarchy after the mayors of two feuding suburbs declared the same busy street one-way - but in opposite directions.

There was chaos among bemused drivers at the point where the rival systems converged, with all traffic forced down one side road.

The confusion followed a decision by the Mayor of Levallois who wanted to introduce a one-way system to free up traffic through his borough.

Fearing an overspill into his district, the Mayor of Clichy, Gilles Catoire, brought in a one-way system running the opposite direction.

The local prefect, representing the French state, has issued a decree ordering the immediate return of two-way traffic in Clichy, accusing its Mr Catoire of provoking serious disorder.

Mr Catoire is refusing to back down, saying he will challenge the decision in court.

Busted For Slapping Stranger's Crying Child
Georgia man, 61, threatened to "shut that baby up" at Walmart

SEPTEMBER 2--Meet Roger Stephens. The Georgia man, 61, was shopping Monday morning at a Walmart in Stone Mountain when he crossed paths with Sonya Matthews and her two-year-old daughter Paige. The child was crying, which apparently greatly perturbed Matthews. "If you don't shut that baby up I will shut her up for you," Stephens warned Matthews, according to a Gwinnett County Police Department report. Moments later, Stephens acted on his threat, slapping Paige "across the face approximately four or five times." Though the child "started crying and screaming" after being struck, Stephens told Matthews, "See, I told you I would shut her up." After police were summoned, Stephens told a cop that the child was crying "and he just slapped her," according to the report. Stephens was arrested for felony cruelty to children and booked into the Gwinnett County Detention Center, where he is being held without bond. Paige sustained "slight redness to the face," but was otherwise unharmed. (3 pages)

Many years ago my then husband came up with his anus covered in genital warts. I was too young and ignorant to know the significance of this. He had been dead several years before I knew what it meant and it still is irritating that I was so stupid. I would like to kick his dead azz.

Maybe more interesting than weird. The photo is quite colorful and they do resemble a hummingbird.

Maybe he was just hungry, or a crazed finger biting supporter. :D

A Pennsylvania history buff who recreates firearms from old wars accidentally fired a 2-pound cannonball through the wall of his neighbor's home. William Maser, 54, fired a cannonball Wednesday evening outside his home in Georges Township that ricocheted and hit a house 400 yards away. The cannonball, about two inches in diameter, smashed through a window and a wall before landing in a closet. Authorities said nobody was hurt.

[dennis]Mr. Wilson can I have my cannon ball back?[menace]

How cool would it be to have a functional cannon available for work or play? Hmmm... I've got a stump in my yard...

Natures Odd animals. Some really cool pics.

What is the world coming to when the old dead-fish routine doesn't work even in Darwin. :headshake:

Quote:

Darwin police say a man they caught drink-driving last night tried to give officers a dead fish.

Officers were called to a service station at Casuarina just after midnight and say the 44-year-old man was visibly drunk.

Duty Superintendent Rob Farmer says the man "stumbled" out of the car and tried to talk to police before producing the dead fish.

"I'm told it was a saratoga, not a very good one either, only about 30 centimetres long apparently," he said.

"We don't know why he produced it and where he got it from. But yeah, he was intent on showing it to them."

Police say the man later recorded a blood alcohol reading of 0.235 per cent.

Superintendent Farmer says he is unsure what happened to the fish.

"As far as I know, it's still with the car now," he said.

"I don't know whether there were other people there who may have been able to take care of the fish or whether he's going to have a surprise in his vehicle when he gets back to it.

"It's not a good idea to keep dead fish in your car."

The man is due to appear in court today along with another alleged high-range drink-driver who had only just been released on bail after crashing a stolen car.

Police say the man went drinking again, stole a ute, backed it into a parked car and later crashed it into a moving car, before ending up in a stormwater drain near Darwin's CBD.

The 28-year-old has been refused bail, and police say he did not have a licence to begin with.

I've got to try a set-up like this.

Women freed from 'fake Big Brother house'

Turkish military police have stormed a villa in Istanbul to free nine women who were tricked into appearing on an online pornography site.

The women thought they had been recruited for a Big Brother-style reality television show.

They had signed a contract promising they would have no contact with their families and agreeing to pay a hefty fine if they left the show within two months.

But instead of appearing on TV, photos of the scantily-clad women were distributed on a website that charged viewers to see the photos on their mobile phones.

Most of the women alleged they had been held against their will.

Turkish prosecutors are now preparing charges against those responsible.

Most of the women alleged they had been held against their will.

Sounds like the NYC subway.

Didn't know where to put this, but...

WHAT A FUCKING ASSHOLE!
