The report of the Committee of Enquiry into the Penal System, the Chairman Dr. T.K. Whittaker recommended the closing of St. Patricks as soon as possible. His report stated that:-
“Rehabilitation is not possible as the physical and environmental conditions are such as to nullify any personal developmental programmes. The facilities and services required could not be provided even in a renovated St. Patricks”.

The two-person Innespace Killer Whale Submarine’s 255hp supercharged engine will let you hydroplane at  80km/h and cruise up to 1.5m underwater at 40km/h, thanks to an exhaust snorkel built into the dorsal fin.

Obama Edges Romney In Second Debate (CBS)

The Alpha Male showed up tonight.
In the second debate, President Barack Obama came. He saw. And he kicked butt.
The POTUS took command of the second presidential debate from the start. He thrashed Mitt Romney on everything from trade to taxes. And then he closed the debate by reminding everyone of Romney’s arrogant assault against 47% of the American people.

“I should have been rewarded for all the good things that I’ve done because I did everything within human power to avoid the war and to reduce human suffering,” said Mr Karadzic, who still sports a shock of thick white hair and occasionally smiled as he spoke with spectacles perched on his nose.

“Neither I nor anyone else that I know thought that there would be a genocide against those who were not Serbs,” claimed the man accused of bearing responsibility for the slaughter of about 8,000 Muslims at Srebrenica and for the bombardment of Sarajevo that claimed some 10,000 lives.

Mr Karadzic said he was “a mild man, a tolerant man, with a great capacity for understanding others . . . a literary man, a group analyst and a psychiatrist” who had “nothing against Muslims or Croats”.

“I never made any discrimination. My hairdresser of many years was a Muslim,” he added.

Aw. Bless.
