Lesson-Massive boulder dumped in front of the home where his ex-wife lives

SAINT-THEODORE-D'ACTON, Que. -- A messy divorce got a lot rockier when the mayor of a town east of Montreal had a massive boulder dumped in front of the home where his ex-wife lives. The rock, spray-painted with the words "Happy Birthday Isa XX," was deposited at the home about 45 minutes east of Montreal.It's not clear if town machinery was used to carry out the act of vengeance.Dany Lariviere, mayor of Saint-Theodore d'Acton, says he had the 20-ton stone rolled onto the property because his ex has harassed him and tried to ruin his business.

"This is the final straw so that my ex-wife will leave me alone," Lariviere told QMI Agency Monday morning. "She continues to harass me behind by back despite many warnings and legal appeals. This is probably the largest gift she will receive in her life."The woman, Isabelle Prevost, told a local newspaper that she fears for her life and those of her children.She complained to provincial police, who asked Lariviere to remove the rock. He refused and he's now under investigation for possible mischief or harassment.The couple has been divorced for about a year.

Enjoy-Peeling it off for the Bare Buns Run

VANCOUVER - Dressed in their best birthday suits, some 200 people raced naked at this year’s annual Wreck Beach Bare Buns Run on Sunday. “It’s the freedom of not having the clothes, just feeling like a little kid running around,” said participant Dave Lewis, whose love for the breeze between the knees began about 10 years ago, when a friend who couldn’t make the run asked him to sub in. “Once I did it, I was hooked,” he said. Participants were split into age groups to compete for medals in the timed five-kilometre race. “It’s sort of an organic feeling, you have the sense of lightness and that everything is right – you can do anything,” said Elliot Raymer, a running enthusiast who found his nude groove this past spring. “I think a lot of people are afraid of nudity in themselves and other people.” Volunteer Tom Dunn agrees. In his 12 years with the event, he noticed women are particularly shy about baring it all – estimating that up to 90% of participants are men. “Other than couples, you’ll find that single men are more comfortable in the nude than women,” he said. “I would have some difficulty in convincing my female friends.

Perhaps that will make him smarter."Petterson said the alleged taunts started a week before the 2011 federal election campaign as he was running for the Liberals in the riding of Chicoutimi-Le Fjord.

How-British spies planned to turn Hitler into a woman

AS wartime plots go, it stood as much chance of success as Captain Blackadder’s attempt to avoid battle by sticking two pencils up his nose, putting underpants on his head and claiming to be from the planet Wibble. With no end to the Second World War in sight, British spies came up with a plan to lace Adolf Hitler’s food with female sex hormones to curb his aggressive impulses.

Agents planned to smuggle doses of oestrogen into his food to make him less aggressive and more like his docile younger sister Paula, who worked as a secretary.He explained that oestrogen was chosen because it was tasteless and would have a slow and subtle effect, meaning it would pass Hitler's food testers unnoticed.The Allied plot to turn Herr Hitler into Her Hitler was just one of a number of wacky ideas cooked up to break the stalemate, according to a new book.
