In Belgium, a 19 year old student has gone missing. Fortunately, we don't really know his famous US namesake here:

A New Castle man called 911 emergency dispatchers this week to report he had been insulted.

Police were sent to the 27-year-old man's home, in the 400 block of South 18th Street, about 2 p.m. Sunday.

In a report, an officer said he told the man "it is not criminal that his girlfriend's mother calls him names and not to continue calling 911 to make reports."

On Monday morning, New Castle police were sent to a home in the 1400 block of South 18th Street after dispatchers received a report of a juvenile refusing to take a bath.

"Handled at scene," was the responding officer's concise report.

Elsewhere in Henry County, a rural Middletown woman called 911 about 11:30 a.m. Wednesday to report a disturbing sight: A juvenile, clad in a tank top and shorts, "with a chain around (his) neck, dragging a cement block."

A Middletown officer determined the alleged victim was actually an "adult working out."

Shit's getting real. There's a proposed ordinance before city council tonight that would basically waive the first amendment in the veterans area. Crazy.

there is a house near me that has been hit multiple times because people love to accelerate when they see yellow lights and the road is curved so they see it even later. sorry for harbling but i just read this book called THERE ARE NO ACCIDENTS that was v good and talks about this sort of thing! like the reflexive assumption that changing the speed limit will solve the problem.
