Sad news... The thieves got $892 for the brass and now they have to pay $89,000 in restitution...

There is also another Padre Pio Shrine in New Jersey, though much smaller than the National Shrine...

Something to be said for Fences and Security Cameras...

It’s nothing. Sometimes one can’t even tell what country the report’s from, though!

	Gods Graves Glyphs	Well said, InABunkerUnderSF. There's actually a parallel with some ancient societies in that. Rome started to be dismantled for its marble centuries before its fall. Emperor after emperor made laws and specified punishments for "urban quarrying", which mostly went on at night (because quite early on, at least as early as Augustus, cart traffic was forbidden in daylight to reduce street congestion), and target buildings were typically underused public buildings. Just adding to the catalog, not sending a general distribution. To all -- please ping me to other topics which are appropriate for the GGG list.
