Woman escapes from German detention centre in a suitcase

HANOVER, Germany (AFP) - A 19-year-old woman appears to have escaped from a juvenile detention centre in northwest Germany by hiding in the suitcase of a fellow inmate who was released, police said on Monday.

Guards at the facility in Neustadt remarked that the suitcase of the 18-year-old who walked free on Friday was particularly heavy but failed to search it, the police said.

The fact that the other woman was missing was only noticed several hours later during the routine evening check of cells at the centre.

The police are still looking for the two young women.

This was a quick note from a volunteer, she's VEHEMENT!

(My friend Karin decided not to have children, and didn't.  Considering Karin knows nothing about www.vhemt.org, I thought you all would find her observations interesting...there are a LOT of (anonymous) VOLUNTEERS out there (some more "out there" than others!!!))

Samuel & I celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary in Crete.
From there we went to Athens, Barcelona, Madrid, Lisbon, and Paris.  It was an unusually good trip.  I wouldn't go back to Spain but I always wanted to see it and we had a good time there.
Now I'm back at the office and feeling like I could use a good laugh.  Fortunately, Bush doesn't disappoint.  And if we don't laugh we will have to cry.
 
By the way, the Europeans now hate us.  This is the first time ever that they actually said it's not your president, it's you.  You voted for this idiot.
Everyone was very nice to me but they made it very clear that they hold Americans personally responsible for the situation.
 
Another interesting thing that was very clear from the minute we arrived in London:
In 25 years the world will be 50% Muslim.  This is a fact.  I don't think Americans understand this.  If you spend a day anywhere in Europe it is plain to see that they are overtaking the local populations.
Also in 25 years we won't have to worry about this because we will be under water!  Global warming will keep us so busy we won't have time to fight about religion.  We will be selling our real estate to buy clean drinking water.
 
There is good news in all this.  due to the increased diseases from bugs that fly here due to the climate change we may die sooner.  – But I'm not bitter.
 
Hope you have a great week.
