92 year old Daily Telegraph columnist/ ex editor WF Deedes launched a
sterling defence of club culture this week, suggesting staying out all
night raving could prove to be excellent training for gallant young
officers going off to fight in Iraq.

"As a frequenter of nightclubs in the 1930s, let me take the stand for
a moment," the veteran reveller (who's nowadays a lifetime peer)
pleaded.

"The hardest struggle in prolonged conflict is not being brave but
staying awake, and this I found, is where we nightclubbers had the edge
over fresh-faced young men, not long out of school and fit as fleas, who
after a day and night without sleep, found it hard to keep their eyes
open," Lord Deedes recalled.

the American pilots who bombed Canadian forces in Afghanistan in April
2002 had taken amphetamines, or "go pills," came as a surprise to some.

amphetamines to pilots on long flights for years . . .')

America Brands Drugs Users 'Vectors Of Contagion'

American plans to target occasional drug users through 'compassionate
coercion' coupled with 'specialised pharmaceuticals' could mean the war
on drugs moves inside people's brains, an alarming new report published
by civil liberties group the Center for Cognitive Liberty & Ethics
(CCLE) claimed this week.

The report highlighted the development of vaccines to block the effects
of drugs such as cocaine, though also examined the implications of
America's 2003 National Drug Control Strategy, which compares occasional
dabblers with cholera carriers.

"It (drug addiction) spreads because the vectors of contagion are not
addicts in the streets but users who do not yet show the consequences of
their drug habit," the US report declared last year.

"Last year, some 16 million Americans used an illegal drug on at least
a monthly basis, while 6.1 million Americans were in need of treatment.
The rest, still in the "honeymoon" phase of their drug-using careers,
are 'carriers' who transmit the disease to others who see only the
surface of the fraud," they declared.

German Husband's (Not So) Great Escape

A 47-year-old man from Itzehoe, Germany was beginning a ten-day prison
sentence this week after refusing to pay a parking fine in order to
escape his wife.

"He said he couldn't stand the constant bickering at home with his wife
and was looking forward to a bit of peace and quiet in jail," a police
spokesman explained. (Ananova)

The henpecked driver's conviction came 18 months after fellow German
Vladimir R attempted an even more resourceful way of silencing his
equally outspoken missus, with the aid of a second world war air-raid siren
he installed at their home.

"My wife never lets me get a word in edgeways," Herr R told police when
they responded to neighbours' complaints.

"So I crank up the siren and let it rip for a few minutes. It works
every time. Afterwards, it's real quiet again,' he explained.

Both characters could find favour with German sports minister Otto
Schiller who two weeks ago called on locals to make a concerted effort to
be less grumpy when they host the (soccer) World Cup in 2006.

"We could do with more jollity and lightness, a sprinkling of Viennese
or Mediterranean flair," Herr Schiller suggested. "we too are capable
of light-footedly hovering two centimetres above the ground."

Retrosexuals Rough Up Metrosexuals

Fashion conscious Brit blokes are ditching metrosexual traits like
personal hygiene and hair styling and becoming dirty 'retrosexuals'
according to a new lifestyle guide published by Oxford University.

"The retrosexual is a man who spends as little time and money as
possible on his appearance," The Guardian revealed this week, "he is scared
of hair gel."

The Standard newspaper also highlighted the latest fashion this week,
declaring 'the retrosexual is scruffy, possibly a little dirty and as
unaffected by designer labels as anyone can be'.

Both newspapers, however, failed to mention the sexuality of retros,
though Mark Simpson, the British journalist who coined both terms (in
1994), suggested retros are more likely to be gay than metros.

"Pointing to a heterosexual or homosexual is generally not as easy
these days, without following them home to check, not least because of the
proliferation of the metrosexual," he told the Observer several months
ago.

"Hetero metros are probably rather less 'latent' than retrosexuals.
They are, after all, rather blatant - in their flirtatiousness," he
pointed out.

Eminem Blasts Bush's Mission From God

US rap star Eminen has labelled George Bush 'a weapon of mass
destruction' on his new album Encore and attacked him for going to war over
Iraq.

"Maybe this is God just saying we are responsible for this monster/
this coward that we have empowered," he raps on Mosh. "Let him go fight
his own war, let him impress daddy that way." (Mirror)

While Eminem's rant is unlikely to concern Republication strategists
unduly, a much more damaging assessment of the President's competence
appeared in the New York Times this week, courtesy of leading Republican
libertarian politico Bruce Bartlett. The Washington insider, who served
as both an advisor to Ronald Reagan and George Bush senior in the past,
claimed George W genuinely believes he's on a mission from God,
allowing him to ignore inconvenient facts, whenever it suits him.

"This instinct he's always talking about is this sort of weird,
Messianic idea of what he thinks God has told him to do," Mr Bartlett
explained.

"This is why George W. Bush is so clear-eyed about Al Qaeda and the
Islamic fundamentalist enemy. He believes you have to kill them all. They
can't be persuaded, that they're extremists, driven by a dark vision.
He understands them, because he's just like them," he said.

Hooligan Harry Fights For Britain

Notoriously delinquent royal Prince Harry enhanced his lager lout
reputation even further this week, when he got involved in a 'scuffle' with
a photographer outside a London nightclub.

According to press reports the pot-smoking prince quaffed vodka and
mingled with soap opera actors and 'glamour models' at toff hangout
Pangeaa before lunging at a photographer as he left the London club in the
early hours.

"You f***ing w***er, why are you f***ing doing this", Harry reportedly
screamed as he lashed out at the snapper, and had to be dragged back
into his limousine by his bodyguards, the Mirror reported.

"Punching people in the street is not the sort of thing you expect from
a prospective British army officer," an ex SAS officer and former royal
protection bodyguard told the newspaper. "He will be depended upon to
remain cool in tough situations."

The incident came just a week after the out-of-control 20 year old
denied accusations that he'd cheated in his Art A level exam and just two
years after he became notorious for hosting drug crazed parties at
Prince Charles' palace at Highgrove.

"The trouble is that Harry has been fighting an image problem ever
since his brush with drugs," said Standard royal watcher Valentine Low.

"The pictures of red-faced Harry scrapping (fighting) in the street
will imprint on people's minds an image that will prove hard to
eradicate," he predicted,

Swaziland Bus Drivers Issue Miniskirt Rape Threat

Over 1,000 women protested in Swazilland this week after bus drivers
gang-raped an 18 year old girl for wearing a miniskirt and threatened to
do it again to any other women daring to wear 'revealing clothes'.

"Women who wear miniskirts want to be raped," a conductor declared,
"and we will give them what they want." (Daily Telegraph)

According to the British Foreign Office, crime levels are usually
relatively low in the Southern African country though their webiste
recommends avoiding strolling after dark in the downtown areas of Mbabane and
Manzini (where the attack happened).

The UK government site also warns that Swaziland has the highest HIV/
AIDS infection rate in the world (38.6% of the population are infected,
over half of whom are women) and also provides unusually detailed
information on a recent sex scandal involving the country's leader, King
Mswati III.

"The mother of a girl selected to be one of the King's wives took legal
action against the King's emissaries in 2002 for taking the girl
without her permission, although she later dropped the court case," the FO
website reveals.

"The Director for Public Prosecutions was intimidated and threatened
with dismissal by the Attorney General because of his involvement in the
case of the 'abducted' fianc?e", they add.

Scott Weiland - Not a Bush fan
KERRY-ING FAVOUR!
VELVET REVOLVER frontman SCOTT WEILAND has accused GEORGE W BUSH of ?taking advantage? of public grief following the September 11 attacks by leading his country into war.
Today (November 2), Americans head out to the polls and decide whether or not to keep their President. And last night Weiland ? former singer with Stone Temple Pilots ? released a statement urging his fans to vote against Bush.
He wrote: "I remember the weeks following 9/11. The tragedy, the sadness, and that overwhelming feeling of waiting for the other shoe to drop; then something else happened. America came together and rose out of the ashes like a Phoenix for the first time in my life. The ideals, hopes, and common bonds that once were the bedrock of this nation rose again to the surface and we let the world see what we were made of - our unity, brotherly love, and honour, even if brought together by tragedy.
"I feel that George Bush took advantage of us. Took advantage of our loss. Took advantage of our pain. Took advantage of our grief, and used it for his own selfish designs. The question is not whether or not this happened, but if we're going to do something to change it. Please make a vote that shows America does not belong to George Bush. That the White House is not an heirloom of the Bush dynasty. Place a vote to restore honour and pride back to America and the presidency. Vote for John Kerry."
Elsewhere, Weiland slams the war in Iraq and the subsequent handling of the country?s affairs: "The initial argument for war in Iraq was to rid the region of weapons of mass destruction and remove Saddam from power, making the region and the world safe from a maniacal dictator. Somehow the motive has blurred into something completely different altogether: ?A free and democratic society for the people of Iraq,? most of whom don't want what we're selling them, and never will."
