"How Could They Do This To Me After All I've Done For Them?!" sobs crazy cat lady.
A Northern Californian woman is contemplating her options after surviving 24 hours of kitty vandalism in her suburban home. Waking to find Tupperware strewn across the kitchen floor, the frazzled homeowner soon discovered someone had chewed through her dried (and somewhat disgusting) diet breakfast meal. 
Later that afternoon, she discovered kitty grass carelessly dumped on the carpet and managed to snap a photo of one of the perpetrators in action. Thinking the worst was behind her, she returned to her home office to find that her iPod earbud wire had been chewed through.
Choking back tears, the Homeowner said, “I just don’t know what to do....they seemed so innocent when I found them at the Shelter. I just thought if I gave them a good home, they’d put their juvenile delinquent days behind them.”
Neither kitty suspect returned our calls.
In an unrelated incident, our DillyDallying Knitter finished her Einstein coat. Made from 100% Icelandic wool, she finished it just in time to wear it…during a week of record warmth.

York City's illustrious manager Billy 'Mac' McEwan has landed himself in hot-water this week due to a throwaway comment he made regarding Conference fixtures being played on a Sunday. Mac doesn't approve, believing they should only take place on the Jewish sabbath, because -"Saturdays are for the women to go shopping and for the men to go to the pub and watch football."One of our female directors, Sophie McGill has hit back in this mini battle of the sexes -"As a supporter-owned club we are very committed to encouraging the next generation of supporters to KitKat Crescent and the high presence of female fans helps to create the welcoming, family atmosphere we strive for."One of the means by which female supporters are encourged is by the introduction of certain days being designated as "ladies days" . Women are tempted through the turnstiles by the offer of free chocolate from Rowntrees and a brief half-time appearance by the girls under 14s team.Rachel has herself succumbed to the offer of free chocolate, but I've suggested in future I just buy her the chocolate as she gets bored at the match, and it costs me £13. She knows nowt about football, she supports Middlesbrough.This reminded me of Jane's recent post about the romance of lower league football. One of the most romantic sights I regularly see is that of the opposition supporters getting drenched as the heavens open above the uncovered away end of Bootham, sorry Kit-Kat Crescent.
Lo ha stabilito il Consiglio di Stato (ANSA) - ROMA, 15 FEB - Il crocifisso deve restare nelle scuole perche' 'idoneo ad esprimere il fondamento dei valori civili'. Lo ha stabilito il Consiglio di Stato. Secondo i giudici, i valori rappresentati dal crocifisso hanno un'origine religiosa, ma coincidono con quello che 'delineano la laicita' nell'attuale ordinamento dello Stato'. Respinto dunque il ricorso di una cittadina finlandese che chiedeva la rimozione del crocifisso da una scuola nel Padovano frequentata dai figli.
