Sun1 Page 3 goes tits up: a history of the Suns shelved stunnas
Forty-two is no age at all for a model these days, but life could be ending rather than beginning at 40 for Britain’s most famous glamour modeling institution. Rupert Murdoch, responding to a tweet this week suggesting that the Sun’s Page 3 is “so last century”, replied: “You may be right, don’t know but considering.”

Valentine’s Day: The most disastrous dinners for two: rows, murder and mayhem

valentines day dinner1 Valentines Day: The most disastrous dinners for two: rows, murder and mayhem

As you prepare your St Valentine’s Day meals, take care. Cooking can lead to rows. We’ve chronicled arguements over dinner in the news…

Mashed potato 

A husband killed his ‘nagging’ wife by clubbing her to death with a lump hammer after a row about mashed potato. Colin Adlard, 61 snapped and repeatedly struck his wife Wendy with the hammer while she was in bed because she would not stop shouting at him and berating him. 

Waffles

A man turned to drugs to de-stress following a heated row with his girlfriend over defrosting waffles. Jamie Paddison of  Grantham, Lincolnshire  admitted possession of cannabis after being found carrying the Class B drug on December 19. Bill Fraser, defending, told the court Paddison had made good progress in reducing his use of the drug but had a habit of turning to it in times of stress, as he did following a row with his girlfriend. Mr Fraser added: “The row was about how they should have defrosted their waffles - which seems a bit bizarre to me.”

Happy Malians and the dead jihadis: the ‘disgusting but wonderful’ war in photos

IN Mali, the fighting is brutal:

The crowd gawked at human torso remains lying in the rubble, along with other fragments of flesh. “It’s disgusting but wonderful to see. These people tortured us, they did nothing but damage here,” said Mahamane Tandina, 24, cheered on by the crowd. “We like this, frankly,” he said with a smile.

Christopher Dorner: media bias turned murderous anti-racist bigot into a hero (the faked manifesto)

christopher dorner Christopher Dorner: media bias turned murderous anti racist bigot into a hero (the faked manifesto)

POLICE hunting triple-killer Christopher Dornerhave issued a $1m (£633,000) reward for information on his whereabouts. As with all modern killers, Dorner has posted an online manifesto. He included the pathetic phrase: “Don’t ever call me a bully.

>Mayor of Los Angeles, Antonio Villaraigosa, wants him caught:

“We will not tolerate this reign of terror that has robbed us of the peace of mind that the residents of southern California deserve.” 

Sacked from the police, Dorner, a former U.S. Navy reserve lieutenant, wants revenge.

Charlie Beck, the LAPD chief also wants him caught:

“This is not about capturing a fleeing fugitive, this is about preventing a future crime. Every day that Dorner is loose … [an] attack on a police officer, or family is likely. We ask the public to help us find Dorner before he kills again.”

Beyonce Knowles Super Bowl derp and Mr Microphone show in photos

DID you stay up to see Beyonce perform in New Orleans? It was tough going. In the UK, the show was broadcast in the early hours of the morning. To make it harder to stay up that late, the event was squashed between something called the NFL Super Bowl XLVII football game, a contest between the lycra-clad San Francisco 49ers and the shoulder-heavy Baltimore Ravens. Staying awake was testing for any metrosexuals not into 1980s fashions. But if you put in the hard yards, Beyonce was there. You got to see Destiny’s Child reunited – shame the extra ladies lost their voices whenever Beyonce sang ,or their Mr Microphones had failed at the last – and the birth of the Beyonce Derp meme.  How committed to the show was Beyonce? Get a load of the game face. She was all in:

When it comes to self-promotion you have to hand it to him. Transfer deadline day arrives and instead of talking about a 22-year-old Brazilian or Portuguese hotshot on his way to Chelsea or Manchester to City, the media is frothing with excitement over a 37-year-old former international whose main purpose these days is to sell merchandise with his name on.

 Facebook and Twitter catch up with old media and advertise prostitutes for sale

IN “Children ‘are put at risk’ as prostitutes use Facebook to sell their wares, Fiona Hamilton, Murad Ahmed and Billy Kenber tell Times readers of the perils of using Facebook and Twitter:

Prostitutes and escort agencies are openly using Facebook and other social networks to advertise their services and tout for new business.

So..? And what’s that about “wares”? Bit snotty, no? People who sell wares are iffy, shady types. They are selling sex.

Hundreds of unrestricted pages dedicated to the sex trade have been created on social networking sites, fuelling concerns that children are being exposed to explicit content and offers of adult services.

Scouting for Boys extracts: Robert Baden-Powell gave Pink Floyd their ‘brick in the wall’?

scouting for boys Scouting for Boys extracts: Robert Baden Powell gave Pink Floyd their brick in the wall?EXTRACTS from Robert Baden-Powell’s Scouting for Boys. In the Intro, Baden Powell signed off “Chief Scout of the World”.  The book was originally published in installments every other Wednesday from January 15, 1908:

You should remember that being one fellow among many others, you are like one brick among many others in the wall of a house. If you are discontented with your place or your neighbors or if you are a rotten brick, you are no good to the wall. You are rather a danger. If the bricks get quarrelling among themselves the wall is liable to split and the whole house to fall.

While Pink Floyd hummed that, boys just hummed:

“The result of ‘self-abuse’ is always—mind you, always—that the boy after a time becomes weak and nervous and shy, he gets headaches and probably palpitation of the heart, and if he still carries it on too far he very often goes out of his mind and becomes an idiot… several awful diseases come from indulgence—one especially that rots away the inside of men’s mouths, their noses, and eyes, etc.” 

Etc? Sounds ominous.

“Avoid listening to stories or reading or thinking about dirty subjects”

And then, oddly:

 ”It is at present a disgrace and a danger to England that from want of self-restraint among men and women thousands upon thousands of children are born every year for whom there is no work and no money.”

ON President Barack Obama closing Guanatanmo Bay:

 “Four years ago, Barack Obama’s first act as President was an executive order to close the detention facility at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. The White House created a position at State of ‘special envoy’ to Guantanamo, whose duties included reviewing the pending cases with Attorney General Eric Holder, and diplomacy with allies to place the current detainees in order to close the facility. Four years later, the only thing being closed is Special Envoy Daniel Freed’s office.”

The 8 worse acts of censorship in TV history

 The 8 worse acts of censorship in TV history

CENSORSHIP reared its ugly head again this week, as the BBC cut a line of dialogue from the classic comedy Fawlty Towers, in which the ‘old-fashioned’ major tells Basil about the time he took a lady to see India play cricket at the Oval:

‘The strange thing was, throughout the morning she kept referring to the Indians as niggers. “No, no, no,” I said, “the niggers are the West Indians. These people are wogs”.’

PEOPLE of Wiltshire have been getting naked in the snow. Add this to the list of reasons to love snow. Existing reasons include: no school; horse meat stays freshers for longer; snowmen; even Basildon looks better; snowballs. It’s for charity. The women look fun and at ease with themselves, and, as is the way, the men come over a little coy. Look out for the lads hiding their snowmen / balls behind all manner of objects, our favourite being a china Buddha:

Operation Yewtree: they only nick the ugly ones

 Operation Yewtree: they only nick the ugly onesIT’S been a while since the last Operation Yewtree arrest. The Met’s enquiry into alleged child sexual exploitation by the late Jimmy Savile and others, has gone a bit quiet.

There have been nine arrests so far. Enough for a game of Celebrity Squares, the 1970s noughts and crosses gameshow with a twist. There should be further arrests – the Star promised more on January 13, stating: “Savile cops will arrest seven more stars” – but many VIPS (as they were known in their pomp) are dead. Also, if the Star can make celebrities of X Factor also-rans and minor soap opera actors, the Celebrity Police Force might not think it worth the effort to nick a Crossroads extra. We could dig up some real stars gone by, but then we’d be necrophiliacs, like Jimmy Savile.
