| Winning the war on …
Another thing that has bothered me the past couple of days was a news story I read in the AJC about Sonny wanting a history museum to the tune of 25 million. We have a really lovely archives in Morrow, brand new facilty, well a few years old, but relatively new, and the Atlanta History Center, which again, a great facilty. Spend the 25 million on water problems, Sonny! Without water, Atlanta and the rest of Georgia will BECOME history! .
Sweetheart killer gets 10 years
AN Ipswich man who killed his childhood sweetheart during an episode of jealous rage has been sentenced to 10 years' imprisonment. A subdued Garry John Mills, 33, sat in the Brisbane Supreme Court with his head bowed and sobbing as gruesome details of the unlawful killing and his attempts to then cover up the crime were made public for the first time. The court heard that Mills had most likely suffocated Jolene Ruby Mills, 29, or strangled her using an electrical extension cord during a violent brawl in their Ripley home, on the southern outskirts of Ipswich, on the early hours of July 10, 2005. Mills then removed Ms Mills's clothing, wrapped her body in garbage bags and dumped her in a shallow grave in a secluded area of bushland about 15km from their family home. Mills then returned home and hid her possessions, including a mobile phone, handbag and her pyjamas, along with bed linen, his pyjamas and the extension cord in a manhole above the garage, before telephoning her friends to ask if they knew where his wife was.
Security shambles as airport is invaded for third night in row
There is no god, and if you had the intelligence to realise that instead of taking literally a load of old fairy stories from the days when people were ignorant of most of what we now know, you might come round to seeing that killing people is just plain wrong. No excuses. Hitler and his cronies were wrong, and now both Israel and Hezbollah are wrong. Try coming into the 21st century. .
For Many Women, Alberta's Boom a Bust
Others will hang out in a bar, hoping for a bed and a safe place--they are also homeless." The Women's Emergency Accommodation Centre (WEAC) in Edmonton is the most well known of less than a handful of women's shelters in the city. It can accommodate just 75 women per night, and there are generally 25 to 30 women staying there for a longer term, which means fewer beds available for those seeking emergency shelter. Amy Gillis, an inner-city physician in Edmonton, says there are few other options for women seeking shelter. "There's the George Spadie Centre, but you usually have to be intoxicated to go there. There's the Hope Centre, but they have far fewer spaces available for women than men. There are not enough absolute spaces for women, and there is little stability in these places." The shelter situation in Fort McMurray is grimmer still.
