A 15-year-old girl has been identified as the mother of baby Aaron, the newborn found in a Hastings sewer.

The stillborn baby was discovered by a plumber on January 24. It is thought the body was flushed down a toilet around five days earlier.

Detective Senior Sergeant Sam Aberahama says DNA tests were taken from 30 women who either live at, or recently visited houses connected to the sewer.

He says one of the samples taken from a visiting teenage girl has confirmed she was the boy's mother.

Detective Senior Sergeant Aberahama says the girl has been medically examined and referred for a family group conference.

"Friendditto" is a Web site, not affiliated with LiveJournal (though I gather they're claiming to be), that is collecting people's usernames and passwords in order to archive those people's friends' friends-only posts.

There are all sorts of security risks therein, but the major one is that even if they do only what they claim, this means that they're archiving person A's friends-only posts because person B says they can.

If you're on my friends list and see posts with that little lock symbol, it means I'm willing to share them with you. It also means I'm trusting your judgment to a certain extent: telling your sweeties what's going on with me, or filing off the identifying information and telling your mother or roommate about an amusing incident, is one thing [1]; letting someone you don't even know see and quite possibly republish my posts is another.

If you've given your password to friendditto, please do at least one of the following:

Change your password at once. [1]

Notify me so I can drop you from any of my filters more private or specific than the four-part division of my list into people [human and animal], space probes, communities, and RSS feeds.

If you want an archive copy of something I've posted, you don't need anything like friendditto: save it to your hard drive, or hit "print" and file the hardcopy.

[1] Even then, if you're not sure, please ask.
[2] It would probably also be a good idea to change the password on any other site for which you're using the same password.

Sick Sad World

Child Youth and Family is investigating the parents of a baby left locked in a car at a beach north of Gisborne to determine if they are fit to care for the infant.

A passer by broke into the car to rescue the nine month old baby found unconscious and near death from heat....

1 cent?!

Dear Friends,

This chain letter was started in hopes of bringing relief to other tired and discouraged women. Unlike most chain letters, this one does not cost anything. Just send a copy of this letter to five of your friends who are equally tired and discontented.

Then bundle up the man in your life, send him to the woman whose name appears at the top of the following list, and then add your name to the bottom of the list.

When your turn comes, you will receive 15,625 men. One of them is bound to be better than the one you already have.

At the writing of this letter, a friend of mine had already received 184 men, of whom 1 may be well worth keeping. An unmarried woman living with her widowed mother was able to choose between a Chippendale dancer and an Olympic swimmer.

You can be lucky, too, but DO NOT BREAK THE CHAIN! One woman broke the chain and got her own husband back! So let's keep it going, ladies! Just add your name and address to the list below....

The Civil Union Bill was passed!

[From Ananova]

A Bedford couple named their baby son Drew Peacock before realising it sounded rude.

The baby's father Russell said he only twigged it when he put it in an internet search engine looking for famous namesakes, and was asked: Do you mean Droopy C**k?

"It was as if I'd been smacked with a right hook. I started repeating 'Drew Peacock' over and over again. Then I thought - what have we done?

"I went numb and couldn't speak for two minutes. Then I couldn't stop laughing."

Mother Shetal Patel had also failed to spot their error despite being a registrar's assistant, says The Sun.

She said: "I thought Russell had seen a ghost when he came away from the computer. We decided on the name a month before he was born - we both loved it straight away."

The couple are now concerned Drew's name will cause him problems in later life.

Russell said: "People at work are already saying, 'Hey, look there's Droopy's dad'. But we don't want to change his name. It's on his birth certificate and other documents."

At a press conference today, Theresa Heinz Kerry, wife of Democratic Presidential nominee John Kerry, announced that she's going to be on the campaign trail with her husband! "To prepare myself," she said, "I have shaved off all my pubic hair. From now until the election, I shall sit on the stage with John, and may occasionally flash my legs apart without wearing any panties. This will send a STRONG MESSAGE TO AMERICA! " "Just what is that message, Mrs. Kerry?" gasped the astonished reporters at the news of this rather startling announcement. To which Teresa replied, "READ MY LIPS, NO MORE BUSH!"

Go read this. Just do it.

If I was rich, I would buy this and be in heaven.

Oh my god. Our flour is brown. There's some kind of colony in there. Gross.

I have a mixture of bourbon, sugar, golden syrup and butter on standby til Ben gets home from work with flour, I hoping it doesn't go skank in the meantime (or I lose all self control and eat it). I had to try some of the mixture earlier because I had a little incident with the bourbon. You know when you're pouring something from a near empty bottle and you underestimate how much is left and tilt the bottle a little too far, causing the remaining contents to rush out? Yeah, that!

That 'say something about 15 random friends' thing is really evil.

I'd be more inclined to mention names. (\__/)

Is that Counting Crows song Big Yellow Taxi not the catchiest song ever?

I want to get a couple of norweigen white hooded rats, but what if Panther decided they'd be a nice snack? Has anyone ever sucessfully had cats and rats / other edibles?
