    El Shafee Elsheikh is the highest profile IS fighter to stand trial in the US.


    The UK and US had an extradition agreement that took the death penalty off the table so they won't be making him twist and shout.

    BEEATLLLLESS JOKE-OFF!

          Is it because they're British or because John was a wife beater?

            I'm unfamiliar with that lyric.

            Maybe it was because Jo Jo was a man who thought he was a loner, but he knew it couldn't last...

            Sometimes it's difficult to decide whether to post here or in "classic headlines":

            Bolsonaro faces hard scrutiny over military’s purchase of penile implants

            Army says it purchased three silicone implants, rather than the 60 reported by media, after revelations the military bought Viagra

            Edit: this gives the concept of "hard power" a whole new twist!

                Might work on male soldiers, but what do the female soldiers get ?

                    Woodpecker forces removal of Centennial flagpole in Montreal's West Island

                    Baie-D'Urfé has no choice but to bring down 30-metre pole that's flown Maple Leaf since 1967

                    A ravenous pileated woodpecker has put an end to a flagpole that's flown the Maple Leaf in Baie-D'Urfé for decades, after puncturing the fir log incessantly in its quest for burrowing insects.

                    The bird's pecking caused so much damage that it forced officials to remove the Canadian flag from the 30-metre pole in Bertold Park last week. The area around the pole has been cordoned off, for security reasons.

                    "It's been a remarkable landmark, but its time has come," said Baie-D'Urfé Coun. Stephen Gruber. "Unfortunately, that's the end of that era."

                    The pole began life as a fir tree on Canada's West Coast more than 500 years ago.

                    MacMillan Bloedel and Domtar Ltd. jointly donated the pole as a gift to Baie-D'Urfé and paid for its transport, according to an account of the town's history by Thomas R. Lee, Baie-D'Urfé's mayor from 1957 to 1961.

                    The landmark is one of the tallest flagpoles in eastern Canada — so long that it took three rail wagons to transport it from B.C. to Montreal 55 years ago, in time for Canada's Centennial celebrations in 1967.

                    The bird's ravenous pecking has done so much damage to the 30-metre fir pole that's flown the Maple Leaf high over Baie-D'Urfé's Bertold Park since 1967 that municipal officials have no choice but to bring the pole down.

                    This saddens me to no end.

                    What kind of society are we when a decent man like Jones can't tell slanderous lies about people's dead children?

                        Two black bears caught wrestling on backyard trampoline in Coquitlam, B.C.

                        Expert says bears more likely to wander as they emerge from winter hibernation

                        A video of two black bears wrestling on a backyard trampoline in Coquitlam, B.C., has prompted a wildlife expert to advise caution as the animals emerge from hibernation and often move closer to humans.

                        The video, taken last Sunday by Coquitlam resident Rose Waldron, shows a no-holds-barred cage match between two young bears, doing their best professional wrestler impersonations as they duke it out on her trampoline.

                        Doug Waldron, Rose's husband, says bears regularly visit the family's backyard, which is located near a lake close to the Coquitlam River.

                        "That's their bathing spot and their fishing hole. It's their country," he said. "They can come and go as they please. They don't bother anybody."
