Re: The random krap and bizarre pics thread
Shinjo's weak hitting performance as an SF Giant-- Mystery explained.
(AP) Tsuyoshi, a four-year-old "male" polar bear, is seen at Kushiro Municipal Zoo in Kushiro, northern Japan
Why won't polar bears mate? They're both female.
Nov 26, 10:01 AM (ET)
TOKYO (AP) - Puzzled Japanese zookeepers have cleared up a mystery over a lack of chemistry between a couple of polar bears as both turn out to be female, a Japanese zoo said Wednesday.
Tsuyoshi, a four-year-old "male" polar bear, and his 11-year-old female partner, Kurumi, have been living together since June at the Kushiro Municipal Zoo in Hokkaido, northern Japan.
But much to the frustration and puzzlement of zookeepers, the bear couple, on a breeding mission, showed no signs of chemistry, and Tsuyoshi has never gone into rut even during "his" mating period.
"Observing his behaviors, we got suspicious as to whether Tsuyoshi was really a male," the zoo said in a statement.
The zoo put Tsuyoshi under an anesthetic earlier in the month for a gender checkup, and learned he was a she.
"I have mixed feelings," Yoshio Yamaguchi, head of the zoo.
Tsuyoshi is very popular at the zoo, and Kyodo News agency said the zoo would not change his name to a female name. Tsuyoshi is a very common Japanese name for boys.
Experts say when polar bears are young, it is difficult to determine their gender as their long hair covers reproductive organs.
The zoo said it had determined Tsuyoshi was a male three months after his birth.

Re: The random krap and bizarre pics thread
Back in 1929 during the Financial Crash it was said that some Wall Street Stockbrokers and Bankers JUMPED from their office windows and committed suicide when confronted with the news of their firms and clients financial ruin . . . Many people were said to almost feel a little sorry for them . . . . .
In 2008 the attitude has changed somewhat:

Sounds like a perfectly reasonable explanation to me.

Man says God ordered him to ram vehicle at 100 mph
Dec 1, 3:14 PM (ET)
SAN ANTONIO (AP) - A man who rammed his truck into a woman's vehicle on a highway early Friday told authorities he crashed into her while going more than 100 mph because God told him "she needed to be taken off the road."
The truck rear-ended the car on U.S. Highway 281, both vehicles spun across a median then came to a stop along a barrier in the opposite lanes. Both drivers suffered only minor injuries.
"He just said God said she wasn't driving right, and she needed to be taken off the road," Bexar County Sheriff's Office spokesman Kyle Coleman said in the online edition of the San Antonio Express-News. "God must have been with them, 'cause any other time, the severity of this crash, it would have been a fatal."
The pickup driver did not tell police how the woman was driving. Police could not find alcohol or drugs in either driver.
A psychiatric evaluation has been ordered for a man.

What is this country coming to?
Ya can't even be an entrepreneur anymore these days. And so much for the dreams of broke nerds everywhere, who were REALLY hoping for a ten bucker.

Police: Ohio college adviser ran prostitute raffle
Dec 1, 4:43 PM (ET)
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) - An Ohio State University academic adviser and a real estate agent held a $10-a-ticket raffle that offered an evening with a prostitute who is also a child sex-abuse caseworker, police said.
Christopher S. Johnson, 33, an academic adviser at OSU's School of Nursing, organized the raffle through a Craigslist.com chat board, police said. Real estate agent Rusty Blades, 42, held the invitation-only party at his house in October for the participants.
Both Johnson and Blades were charged with promoting prostitution. A judge set bail Saturday at $50,000 for Blades and $25,000 for Johnson.
OSU spokesman Jim Lynch said that Johnson was placed on unpaid leave and that the school will investigate whether he improperly used his computer.
Police Detective Jeffrey Ackley identified Vanise Dunn, 31, as the prostitute involved in the raffle. She has worked at Franklin County Children Services since 2000, and court records show she was charged with prostitution Nov. 12 for allegedly soliciting a vice detective.
Her attorney, Scott Kossoudji, declined to comment. Dunn has been on paid leave since her arrest, said Doris Calloway Moore, spokeswoman for Franklin County Children's Services. The agency is looking into whether Dunn violated any of its policies.
A message seeking comment was left Monday with Blades' attorney Richard Wetzel. A woman who answered the phone at Johnson's home said he was not available.

Re: The random krap and bizarre pics thread
Isn't the area code for Tracy (209) ????
Teen shows up bruised, chained at Calif. gym
Police are questioning a couple after a bruised and half-naked 17-year-old boy showed up at a gym Monday with a chain locked to his ankle, claiming he had just fled his captors, authorities said.
Matt Robinson, a spokesman for Tracy police, said authorities believe the teen was held against his will in Tracy _ a city about 60 miles east of San Francisco _ after he ran away from a Sacramento foster home in 2007.
Robinson said authorities are questioning a couple in their 30s, but that they have not been arrested or charged.
He said the emaciated boy was confused when first approached by detectives, unsure where he had come from and how long he was being held against his will.
"The wounds he had and his physical condition as well as having a chain around his leg corroborated his basic statement that he was being held against his will," Robinson said.
Chuck Ellis, a manager of the In-Shape Sports Club in Tracy, said the boy came into the fitness center Monday afternoon wearing only boxer briefs, covered with what appeared to be soot. Ellis says the teen was scared someone was going to come after him and asked to be hidden.
"He said, `Don't let them get me, don't let them get me,'" Ellis said. "He was totally terrified."
Ellis said the teenager told him he was picked up after running away from the foster home to look for his family and that he was held for almost a year. Ellis said he looked like he was between 10 and 12 years old.
Robinson said the couple being questioned live close to the fitness center. He said police are still investigating how the boy may have ended up in the couple's custody.
Robinson said detectives plan to interview the boy, who was taken to a hospital, more Tuesday when he is a "little healthier."

Re: The random krap and bizarre pics thread
Based on the fact that the captors apparently decided to gladly rid themselves of the lil' fella, I am guessing that the correct number is actually 1-800-Supraman.
The "emaciated, unwashed and confused" part confirms it.
