We Deliver!
We DeliverCurtis Crenshaw, 30, dropped by Cincinnati police headquarters to get a copy of his rap sheet so he could review his police record. “He probably thought we only check Hamilton County and that was his biggest mistake,” a police spokesman said. Records clerks saw that Crenshaw was wanted in New York on a murder charge. He is being held pending an extradition hearing. “One of my detectives said, That wasn’t very smart.’ Well, I told him smart people don’t commit homicides. That’s one of the edges that we have,” the spokesman said. “If these people were smart, we’d be in bad shape.” (UPI)
We Deliver II
When police in Silver Spring, Md., found Nelson Robles, 22, tied to a utility pole, they found a note next to him that read, “Montgomery County: I’m wanted.” He was — on five traffic warrants. Police are now investigating whether Robles was left there by two police officers in neighboring Prince George’s County because Montgomery County police were too busy to come pick him up. They found Robles, bound with disposable handcuffs, after an anonymous call told them to look behind a shopping center near the border of the two counties. (AP)
We Deliver III
Mitchell Paster, 29, is being held without bail as the prime suspect in the knifing murder of his wife. Police said he did it at their home — located on the grounds of Pennsylvania’s Lewisburg Federal Penitentiary, where his wife worked as a psychologist. (AP)

Judgement Day
Judgment Day IWhen Michael Fulkroad, 31, came home and found his girlfriend in bed with another man, he punched the guy in the mouth, threw him against the wall, and ran him out of the house. But Common Pleas Judge Scott Evans apparently didn’t think much of the assault charges filed by the Harrisburg, Pa., prosecutor. “The guy goes home and finds his girlfriend in bed with this other guy and people are wondering why he got hit?” Evans asked. But Fulkroad was before him, pleading guilty, so Evans sentenced him — to five minutes on probation. (AP)
Judgement Day II
Katie Nemeth, 19, got some advice from Cleveland Common Pleas Judge Shirley Strickland Saffold when she sentenced Nemeth to a $200 fine for misusing a credit card. In the court transcript, Saffold is quoted as advising Nemeth to dump her boyfriend, because “all of the women in prisons across these United States of America are there because of a guy.” For a better man, she should head for a local medical school and “marry a doctor lickety-split. All you got to do is take a biology book, don’t even read it. When one of them walks by say, Excuse me, could you tell me what this means?’ You got yourself a date,” the judge said. “Men are easy. You can go sit in the bus stop, put on a short skirt, cross your legs and pick up 25,” Saffold said. “Ten of them will give you their money. If you don’t pick up the first 10, then all you got to do is open your legs a little bit and cross them at the bottom.” Judge Saffold, 45, is married to a doctor. (AP)

Think Big and Think Really Big! (Auckland, New Zealand, "David Lim", davidlim)
Think BigThe Dilbert cartoon empire brings in $200 million in annual sales from newspaper syndication, a TV show, a dozen book collections, and more than 700 licensed products from $500 leather jackets to clip-on “pointy hair”. After creator Scott Adams stopped eating meat several years ago, he grew concerned he was not getting adequate nutrition, so he spent $1 million of his share of the money pile to develop a “nutritionally complete, natural food.” The result is the “Dilberito”, a $2.29 meatless burrito-like packaged meal that he is now trying to market to grocery stores. Will it sell? “Six billion people, three meals a day,” Adams says. “It can get big.” (Newsweek)
Think Really Big
The Brazilian TV show Tiazinha (Portugese for “Little Aunt”) was designed to appeal to teens, but the show is more of a hit with adults. That may have something to do with its presentation: a “partially nude model” whips students for not doing their homework. Sex shops say leather whip sales — not to mention the S&M style clothing like the TV mistress wears — are booming. “I never imagined reaching such heights of success,” said actress Suazana Alves, who plays Tiazinha on the show.
