Stop using my e-mail address to sign the guestbooks and journals of teen mothers. If you must harass them, use your own account.

I meant to tell you, but I thought you'd be dedicated enough to figure it out on your own: I updated last week. And I'll update again. The holiday spirit moves me. I have unused Amazon.com gift certificates, and I don't know what to get. Any suggestions? ====================================================================== WYOMING -- A new twist in the brutal murder of a man from Wyoming, as detectives investigate if popular videogame was a motive. 18-year old Michael Emery, 24-year old Brian Davidson and 16-year old Natasha Toothman were arraigned on a charge of open murder. Police tell FOX 17 News at Ten they are looking at the video game, "Grand Theft Auto" as a possible motivating factor. Witnesses told police the suspects played the game both the day before the attack, and again the day after. Police won't say for sure that they got the idea from the game, but they are looking into it. "Our knowledge of Grand Theft Auto is that it's an extremely violent game where the perpetrator in that game can kill people at random, can kill law enforcement officers, can drive his car and run people over," Lt. Paul Robinson of the Wyoming Police told FOX 17 News. In a statement to FOX 17 News at Ten, the company that makes the video games, Rockstar Games, says they extend their sympathies to the family of Jerry Steinberg, but that, "The Grand Theft Auto Series is a comic interpretation of gangster activity and the story, names and incidents portrayed are fictitious. Any resemblance to real world events or people is coincidental." (I've been playing GTA: Vice City quite a bit this past week, and I have to admit, it's hard to control the urge to run over prostitutes and Japanese tourists while I flip between Nena's "99 Luft Balloons" and Twisted Sister's "I Wanna Rock.")

Parents, local councillors and child protection charities have deplored the decision, branding it "political correctness gone bonkers". Head teacher Sue Stokes wrote to parents instructing them not to bring cameras or videos to the play after school governors said modern technology meant pictures could be flashed around the world in seconds to be used by anyone. Parents are divided on the issue, with one mother saying she could understand the concerns but another disappointed she could not record the play for posterity. "These are special moments in a child's life and it's lovely for families, parents and especially grandparents, to look at years later," she said. Child protection charity Kidscape said the decision risked demeaning the issue of child sex abuse. "It is as if there are paedophiles under every rock, and it's not true," Kidscape director Michele Elliott said. "We're demeaning the issue of paedophilia. I have seen a lot of child pornography, unfortunately, and I have never seen any pictures of a nativity play."

Renald Côté, 51, is charged with sexually assaulting three women including his daughter Isabelle, who died at the age of 22 in July. So far, Crown prosecutor Helene Fabi has focused mainly on charges about Côté's daughter. They allege he sexually abused her during her childhood and again last year when she was in a hospital being treated for ovarian cancer. Yesterday, another alleged victim testified. Côté is accused of sexually assaulting the 25-year-old woman twice in 1997. The woman said the first incident occurred after she and the accused went to a Kentucky Fried Chicken restaurant and picked up food for a gathering at the Côté house. When they returned, Côté suddenly put down the bags of chicken and stopped her in the stairway, she said. "He said, 'Kentucky, you have to deserve it.' " Côté then grabbed her hands and tried to French-kiss her. He slipped his hand under her shirt and touched one of her breasts, she said. She said she interpreted his comment to mean he thought he could grope her because he had bought the food.

At least half a dozen rebel groups in Meghalaya, Nagaland and Manipur states have vowed to root out the scourge of drugs from the region that is home to an estimated 200,000 addicts. The penalty for traffickers and drug users are weird. At times they go to extreme lengths. It all depends on the militant group's punishment guidelines. In Nagaland, the outlawed National Socialist Council of Nagaland (NSCN), which runs a virtual parallel state, throws addicts and peddlers into cages while its members rub itchy herbs on the bodies of the victims. "The cage is placed in the middle of the village or town," an NSCN spokesman told IANS. If the person repeats the crime, a padlock is pierced through the earlobes and the key is handed over to a village elder, who cannot give away the key until the person promises never to touch drugs again. In Meghalaya, the Hynniewtrep National Liberation Council (HNLC) makes addicts and peddlers kneel in town squares from dawn till dusk. The rebel groups apart, women vigilantes in Nagaland and Manipur have also come up with ingenious modes of punishing addicts and alcoholics. In one such incident, a few alcoholics were paraded on the streets of Manipur's capital Imphal with empty liquor bottles slung around their neck. They also carried placards that said: "I am a drunkard". The northeast, which borders the heroin producing "golden triangle" of Thailand, Laos and Myanmar, has a major drug problem. Intravenous drug use is widely blamed for the spread of AIDS in the region. The infamous triangle, which produces the world's largest quantity of heroin, borders Manipur and Nagaland.

Thomas Laurence "Larry" Stanley, 57, slumped over in his chair and put his head on the counsel table -- on the verge of tears -- as he was ordered to serve life plus 10 years in state prison. "Mr. (Brad) Barker was not harmed in any way," said Stanley, who fired his lawyer after the trial and was representing himself in the penalty phase. "I don't understand how this is a life sentence." He told the judge: "Your Honor, I never imagined that I ever did anything wrong. I was just trying to be persuasive." He nearly broke down crying as he told the court that his 10-year pursuit of the RocketBelt 2000 has cost him more than half a million dollars and left his family "destitute and on food stamps." Moments earlier, his co-defendant, 55-year-old Christopher James Wentzel, escaped a similar sentence when he entered into a plea agreement with prosecutors. He was sentenced to seven years in state prison. Stanley and Bradley Wayne Barker, along with a third partner, spent years developing the RocketBelt 2000, a Buck Rogers-like jet backpack that was designed to lift a person into the air for several seconds. After a few years, their relationship soured as the men fought over money and possession of the device. Stanley sued Barker and in 1999 won the rights to the belt, which he believed Barker was hiding. The RocketBelt was last seen publicly at the Houston Rockets' 1995 NBA championship celebration. According to prosecutors, Stanley and Wentzel lured Barker, 47, from Arkansas to Los Angeles in November 1999 with the promise of a job on a Hollywood movie set. When Barker arrived, they held him against his will in an attempt to learn where he had hidden the belt. Barker later escaped through a window. Source: LA Times ====================================================================== Norfolk, Va. -- A year after promising to temper its often graphic messages in light of the Sept. 11 attacks, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, the nation's largest animal rights group, has prepared a "turkey terror" commercial that draws on Americans' fear of terrorism. The new television campaign, scheduled to run through the holiday season, depicts a terrorist takeover of a supermarket. The store manager is shown bound and gagged, with shoppers cowering, as an unseen hostage taker warns that "innocent creatures" will be beaten, scalded and dismembered if anyone resists. The commercial eventually reveals the "terrorist" to be a turkey puppet with a demand that people stop eating meat. "We feel that the public is ready for this type of message," said Lisa Lange, vice president of communications for PETA, which claims a membership of 750,000 and is based in Norfolk. "What happened to the kinder, gentler PETA?" said Sherrie Rosenblatt, director of public relations for the National Turkey Federation, an industry group. "I think it is always inappropriate to promote propaganda that puts fear in anyone's mind." The advertisement, which PETA calls the "turkey terror" campaign, is the sharpest departure yet from the group's year-old promise of less provocative messages. "In the past, we showed people the blood, the gore, the suffering of animals," the group's president, Ingrid Newkirk, said less than a month after the Sept. 11 attacks. "Those images are not what's right to show people. "Because society has changed, we're changing with it. If society goes back to being complacent, we'll go back to provoking it again."
