That’s him with caught on camera - with his name and date of birth tattooed on his neck.
The car had been left by Avon and Somerset Police officers with a covert camera concealed inside, which took pictures of Evans.
And he’s a car thief because…Â
TO Australia where Beaconsfield: A Musical in A-Flat Minor will debut in Melbourne tomorrow night.
Miner Larry Knight was killed in a rockfall at the mine on Anzac Day 2006, while Brant Webb and Todd Russell were trapped for 14 days.
It’s terrific show, if a little slow in parts…
Mr Russell tells us:
“(I feel) disgusted, really, in the way they’re going about it and what they’re going to call it,” he said on ABC radio.
“When they’re calling it ‘A-flat Minor’ it’s appalling I think, just a lack of respect for the Knight family. It’s better off being left alone, people are trying to get along with lives, trying to move forward, and they just keep using this tragedy of ours.”
Everyone’s critic. What about the show?
SO this is war. Who threw the first falafel. Come on. Own up!
A new war between Israel and Lebanon has erupted, but this time the war is not geopolitical, but rather an issue of cuisine-who has sovereignty over traditional Arab dishes and sandwiches.
There’s nothing like a good old traditional Labanese Lord Al Sandwich.

THE Rev Peter Mullen is chaplain to the London Stock Exchange and environs. He smells a gay man.
Mullen says:
“Let us make it obligatory for homosexuals to have their backsides tattooed with the slogan SODOMY CAN SERIOUSLY DAMAGE YOUR HEALTH and their chins with FELLATIO KILLS.”
Hurrah! A free tattoo for every gay man! Well, the church needs the support, and a free wafer, sip of wine and one up the arse from the priest may not be enough. Go on:
“In addition, the obscene ‘gay pride’ parades and carnivals should be banned for they give rise to passive corruption, comparable to passive smoking. Young people forced to witness these excrescences are corrupted by them.”
Have you inhaled a gay man?
THe Dutch want to control everything:
Prostitutes in the Dutch city of Eindhoven are to be awarded “credits” in return for good behaviour under a new scheme to encourage them to abandon the oldest profession.
The prostitutes will receive so-called “street miles” that they can use to acquire free designer clothes or furniture, provided they take up an offer by the city council to take steps leading to a career change and a safer lifestyle.
“We needed to come up with incentives that these women might latch on to,” said Veronique Beurskens of Eindhoven council, who is leading a drive to rid the city of street prostitution.

THE Large Hadron Collider. When it works, it will kill us all. But what if you stick your head inside it? What happens?
So it was in 1978 that when the proton beam entered Anatoli Bugorski’s skull it measured about 200,000 rads, and when it exited, having collided with the inside of his head, it weighed in at about 300,000 rads. Bugorski, a 36-year-old researcher at the Institute for High Energy Physics in Protvino, was checking a piece of accelerator equipment that had malfunctioned - as had, apparently, the several safety mechanisms. Leaning over the piece of equipment, Bugorski stuck his head in the space through which the beam passes on its way from one part of the accelerator tube to the next and saw a flash brighter than a thousand suns. He felt no pain.
From what we know about radiation, about 500 to 600 rads is enough to kill a person (though we don’t know of anyone else who has been exposed to radiation in the form of a proton beam moving at about the speed of sound). The left side of his face swollen beyond recognition, Bugorski was taken to a clinic in Moscow so that doctors could observe his death over the following two to three weeks.
Over the next few days, skin on the back of his head and on his face just next to his left nostril peeled away to reveal the path the beam had burned through the skin, the skull, and the brain tissue. The inside of his head continued to burn away: all the nerves on the left were gone in two years, paralyzing that side of his face. Still, not only did Bugorski not die, but he remained a normally functioning human being, capable even of continuing in science. For the first dozen years, the only real evidence that something had gone neurologically awry were occasional petit mal seizures; over the last few years Bugorski has also had six grand mals. The dividing line of his life goes down the middle of his face: the right side has aged, while the left froze 19 years ago. When he concentrates, he wrinkles only half his forehead.
When it works, they say it will kill us all…

GROWING news from the Journal of Medical Hypotheses - ejaculating could be “a potential treatment of nasal congestion in mature males”.
With the cold and flu season upon us, males are now well-equipped to go forth with no fear of embarrassment caused by nasal decongestion. No longer will you be misunderstood when ordering train tickets and calling for Malcolm.
Just wipe, or blow, and go. And, no, you don’t have to snort the stuff, unless you want to.
KIDS, eh. They really do do the funniest things.
To the Alice Springs Reptile Centre in the Northern Territory, where the lovable rascal, age 7, has broken in.
He is feeding animals to a crocodile called Terry, while smashing the heads of other to bits with a rock.
This is, of course, what happens when Dannii Minogue is not on the local telly and your shorts are too tight.

Twisting My Melon
A dog eating a watermelon helped cause a Boston man to repeatedly stab himself to prove to his brother he wasn’t afraid of pain, police say.
A police report said the two unidentified brothers got into an argument this week after a dog belonging to one of the men consumed a watermelon owned by his brother, the Boston Herald said Thursday.
A dog ate a watermelon?
