    A triple gold medallist who was kicked out of the Winter Olympics for failing a drugs test claims he is being told what to do by aliens. Cross-country skier Johann Muehlegg said the mysterious beings have had a profound effect on his life. "I have seen them," he declared, before insisting he had not taken any drugs. German-born Muehlegg, 31, defected to Spain in 1999 - apparently on the instructions of the aliens. He said: "I was contacted and told what to do by people from the other side. "You might think it's funny but it has paid off. I'm ...

    How political correctness let loose the moose Oliver Burkeman in New York Friday February 22, 2002 The Guardian With five different places called Moose Pond, a Moose Cove, Moose Island, several Moose Creeks and a village called Moosehead, all on the shores of Moosehead Lake, it has always been rather too easy for the inexperienced visitor to get seriously lost in Piscataquis county, a thickly forested outpost of north-western Maine. Now, though, it is even easier. Compelled by a statewide law to change every place name containing the word "squaw", because it is considered offensive to native Americans, reluctant officials ...

    Romania's Parliament is to discuss a witchcraft law to regulate the thousands of witches practising in the country.Romanian MP Madalin Voicu says a new law reigning in some of the more questionable practices is logical.Romania introduced taxes on witches' earnings earlier in the year.Mr Voicu said: "They have a profession like everyone else, and we have to make sure that they are subject to the same rules and regulations as everyone else."He added that would include the setting up of a witchcraft school, the "Romanian National Witches College" to ensure professional standards are maintained.Mr Voicu says politicians will also be ...

    I was going through my inbox today and was scanning through the numerous pictures that usually come in. I came across an email that sounded sincere, and was from a man who said he was the tourist guy. Initially I shrugged it off as another person looking for his 15 minutes. I read the email over and he again sounded really serious, so as instructed I opened up the attached pictures. As I was looking at them the feeling of amazement came over me, that was him, there is no doubt in my mind that THE tourist guy has finally ...

    MINEOLA, N.Y., Nov 23, 2001 (AP Online via COMTEX) -- Pollio Italian Cheese Company announced a recall of certain Polly-O ricotta cheese packages and some food service ricotta products because of potential contamination from Salmonella bacteria.

The recalled cheese, in 15 oz. and 3 lb. sizes, had the code date DEC-10 and was distributed through retail grocery stores and food service distributors. The recall also applies to 3 lb. foodservice products ...

The cheese was spread on slices of crisp bread, served with glasses of red and white wine. It was a cheese tasting held in Glen Burnie Town Center, where Anne Arundel Community College has recently opened kitchens and classrooms used by the college's Hospitality, Culinary Arts and Tourism Institute. I was among the handful of restaurateurs, college administrators and cheese heads who ...

That clanging cacophony is coming from every movie theater showing Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. It is the Lord Jesus using cash registers (a communication device He pioneered with Pat Robertson and perfected with Paul and Jan Crouch) to sound a battle clarion for all True Christians living within earshot of a multiplex: With Harry Potter, it is clear that Satan is doing a much better job of marketing witchcraft than we are of ...

    Maybe I'm being petty, but I think it's the little details that inform how we look at the world. The decline of courtesy and manners is a well-worn adage. But why do otherwise intelligent, well-dressed, and financially secure people treat service personnel like servants. At the Starbucks, the businesswoman says "I need a Large Capuccino". At the burger joint "Gimme a doublecheeseburger". Do they have so little self-esteem and respect that it would pain them to ask nicely? Think of political discourse - it seems to run to "demands" for what is basically a handout from the government. I'm no ...

    An "urban legend" is a story that is not true, usually started by some silly young person telling an almost believable story to a gullible friend. The friend, not knowing that the story is false, passes it on to another, who passes it on to yet another. Most "urban legends" are needlessly vulgar; calculated to shock and entertain the common rabble. We at the Urbane Legend Centre have collected a series of truly shocking, yet quite civilized tales that need debunking. &nbsp; The Blair Incident &nbsp; STORY: British Prime Minister Tony Blair, at a dinner in honour of the ...
