This week's Friday Confession is a little anecdote from my single girl in the city days. I once stalked a Leonardo DiCaprio look alike. But in my own defense, I did it for a friend. And we were in our 20s.This friend of mine had a Leo obsession that bordered on pathological. It manifested sometime after What's Eating Gilbert Grape and before Titanic. One day when I was at her apartment, I found on

I posted a question on a blog forum when I first began blogging. I asked how to increase traffic on my blog, and where I could get statistic information.

Charles Clarke was one of New Labour's beleaguered Home Secretaries. Letting criminals loose by mistake, getting into a muddle over terrorist's human rights and generally bluffing his way out of trouble. He's been a bit quiet of late, but then he's a bit like a volcano. Get a rumble going and he could erupt. Now he's apparently checking out the runners and riders in the stalking horse stakes. According to The Independent, an informative MP says that "Charles has the names". Names of those who would sign up in order to trigger a ballot for a leadership contest. Of course, Clarke denies all this, but then he would, wouldn't he? The MP kindly added that either Mr Clarke or another MP with "nothing to lose" would stand as a way of gauging opinion in the Labour Party.As Jon Snow put it to Brown

Posted at March 10th, 2008 7:07 amBritney Spears news and gossip rarely takes a break. But you can’t deny that it’s becoming weirder - and seemingly more bogus - of late. As reported by OK! Magazine, the struggling bipolar babe has recently found herself on the receiving end of a mysterious, obsessed fan. One who has been sending the star threatening packages. OK! claims to have the details of what has Britney’s inner circle and security team running to the FBI. “It started about six weeks ago with just letters being sent once a week,” a source who has supposedly seen the packages reveals to OK!. “And then it quickly escalated to larger packages that now arrive 2-3 times a week — always to the same L.A. address, but never to Britney’s homes.” Perhaps this is what Jamie
There isn't much to do in Richland, Indiana. There is a reproduction of Lincoln's childhood home where no one ever goes-- a failed attempt by the local Chamber of Commerce to promote tourism. There is a tavern situated in an old boxcar, and a restaurant housed in an imitation boxcar that serves a pretty good burger. I do not know where the Richlandian penchant for boxcars comes from, and neither did anyone I asked.My wife is from Richland, and she doesn't know. She thinks I'm an idiot for asking. She is probably right.Eight Thanksgivings ago, I dutifully took my wife and two kids, Samantha, 12, and Alex, 9, to Richland to spend the holiday.

Ina has befriended a Chechen woman who works at a small kiosk along Chui, the main drag downtown. Apparently she had been stopping there every day for various items, and the woman eventually struck up a conversation with her and invited her into the back part of the kiosk for tea. As they got to know one another, Ina learned that this woman (Zina – or perhaps Xena...) was acquainted with the president of the Kyrgyz Chechen Diaspora. Ina asked if perhaps it would be possible to meet with him (his name is Sayyid something), to interview him regarding the latest news out of Chechnya and his views on life here in the Central Asian diaspora of displaced Chechens. Zina said that she would try to set up a meeting. Ina thought I should come along too, claiming that my Russian was better than her
This is the final installment of the series with Bella. My hits have jumped from about 30 to 40 per day to 600 on the days I post the fresh photos. So, I guess I’ll be back to the old traffic in a couple of days. It was good while it lasted, and I truly feel like sex does sell!
This is a bit of an idea that seems to have crawled on me and I think we might see more of this series (not with Bella, but with new models) coming in the future. In the mean time, enjoy:

Among the stacks of credit card offers I receive regularly, one stuck out this week for being in particularly poor taste. American Express sent me an offer to get additional cards. Since I already have an Amex card, I get these ‘add a card’ letters on a pretty regular basis. The difference about this one though was the first line of the offer; "Give your teenager something that they will always carry with them."
What? Are they talking about DEBT?!?? Because that’s basically what they’re suggesting.
Reading on, I find out the terms of the offer.
Anyone who is 15 years or older can receive an Additional Card,…
That means that someone that’s too young to drive, too young to vote, too young to do ANYTHING of legal binding authority (hence, the minor part) is being handed something as dangerous to them financially as a hand grenade. When did this get to be acceptable behavior??

FARGO ND, Pugsy Malone, a 5 year old pug was arrested last evening and charged with serial Stalking, a class III misdemeanor. Malone is currently being questioned by authorities after receiving numerous complaints of suspicious activity near several outdoor barbecues. The complaint alleges that Malone approached and lingered around the diners in a suspicious manner. “He would just sit there, put his paw up in a threatening manner, and stare at you” said one witness. Another witness stated she tried to get him to go away repeatedly but he kept coming back.
More charges may be pending. No court date has yet been set.

By Henrik BramsborgCelebrity stalking has become the way for the socially inept to; A. “normality” or B. stardom. They may have no friends, they may never have had a date or spouse, but when stalking someone perceived as significant to the public, the stalkers feel in control and may feel that they have a “normal” relationship.No two cases are alike. Some will stalk from the shadows, never bothering their victim and subsequently they are seldom discovered. Others will write a dozen letters a day and mail gifts or other items to their victim, thereby inducing fear in the victim and the victim’s surroundings. Celebrity stalking differs from other categories of stalking (i.e. former spouse stalking) because the perpetrator, conscious or subconscious, is seeking to elevate not only his self-esteem but also his social status by the victims fame.No matter the type of stalker, it is a crime in most countries to follow and harass people and therefore the law will be called upon. As a

Author: Stephen J. Morewitz Paperback: 150 pagesPublisher: Springer; 1 edition (December 31, 2002)Language: EnglishISBN: 0306473658Stalking and Violence: New Patterns of Obsession and Trauma provides new perspectives on the prevalence, causes, and effects of stalking in intimate and non-intimate relations. Drawing on the results of a large random survey of restraining orders, this book found that stalking is highly prevalent in a variety of relationships and is a pattern of behaviors that is routinely regulated by the demographic and social characteristics of the victims and offenders. This book demonstrates that it is possible to develop reliable stalker profiles to help better detect and respond to the threat of stalking. These findings differ from previous studies that considered stalking limited to severely disturbed persons. Covering a wide range of topics from offender profiling, the dangers of stalking, cyberstalking, traumatic health effects, and the responses of the polic

I have been waiting years for this shirt to be made (without me knowing it).

April 18 (Bloomberg) — The Virginia Tech University student who carried out the deadliest shooting rampage in U.S. history was questioned twice over stalking incidents in 2005 and taken to a mental-health clinic, police said.
Cho Seung Hui was taken to Carilion New River Valley Medical Center in December 2005 after his second run-in with Virginia Tech police that semester over unwanted online messages to two women, university Police Chief Wendell Flinchum said in a news conference today in Blacksburg, Virginia.
Cho twice sent “annoying messages” to the unidentified students, and no criminal charges were pursued, Flinchum said.
An acquaintance told police he feared Cho was suicidal, Flinchum said. Officers escorted Cho to the clinic in nearby Radford, Flinchum said. It wasn’t clear whether he entered voluntarily.
Cho killed 32 people on April 16 at the campus before taking his own life. At least nine people remain hospitalized, including five in intensive-care u

Wild food is all the rage in restaurants of late and one of the much sought after edibles is the wild leek, a.k.a. ramps, wild garlic or Allium tricoccum. It pops up with the other spring ephemerals such as trilliums and trout lily in eastern North American forests. Apparently, it is delicious with a taste somewhere between garlic and scallions, though I have never tried it.
It is also at risk*.

Prosecutors accused her of stalking the former Beatle.After entering the home through an open sliding glass door, she cooked a frozen pizza, did her laundry and phoned her mother in New Jersey.On Dec. 19, a hiker found the bodies of Keleher and Stanley Merchant, 48, near a highway north of Truckee.Investigators said evidence shows Keleher was fatally shot outside the vehicle, then placed inside and driven a short distance. Investigators believe Merchant sat down next to Keleher's body and shot himself in the head. Two 12-gauge shotguns were found next to him inside the vehicle.In Hawaii, Keleher admitted she was in Harrison's home without his permission but said she wa
SELF DEFENSE AGAINST STALKERSStalking is a growing problem for men and women all around us.
