partie de la jaquette flottante pour autant. Ça, c'est lui qui le dit.
Notre
correspondant veut souligner le fait qu'au Féministan, on a dénigré tout ce qui
est masculin, y compris la beauté du corps masculin.
On doit
admettre que sa remarque ne manque pas de pertinence mais que les caleçons sont
quand même des sous-vêtements.

A woman dressed as a witch robbed a bank and vanished in the smoke of an
exploding anti-theft dye pack, then apparently reappeared in street clothes
and held up another bank, Washington police said.
The Halloween holdups were less than an hour apart at bank branches in Olympia
and the neighbouring town of Lacey, authorities said.
The first robbery was reported when a woman wearing a shiny purple witch's
hat, cloak and long blond wig handed the teller a note indicating she had a
weapon and demanding cash, Lacey police Lieutenant Phil Comstock said.
As the woman ran from the bank, a security dye pack in the bundle of cash
exploded and she dropped the money and her hat, authorities said.
Olympia police later received a silent alarm from a bank branch where
witnesses said a woman handed the teller a note and escaped with an
undisclosed amount of money.
Investigators were comparing images from surveillance cameras, but from
witness descriptions "it looks like the same lady," Detective Samuel Costello
said.
A woman in her 80s attempted to rob a bank in Genoa yesterday after being
refused a loan of €2,000 (about £1,350) to "help make ends meet".
The woman, who had an account at the bank, pulled out a kitchen knife after
being told she could only borrow a smaller sum. According to the news agency
Ansa, when the manager intervened, the woman waved the knife at him and chased
him around the bank.
After police were called, she said she was widowed 10 years ago and the
pension left by her engineer husband was no longer sufficient. Police filed
charges but she was not arrested.
ROCK ISLAND, Ill. Jury selection continues today in the trial of an Illinois
teen accused of killing and dismembering another girl.
Five women and three men were selected as jurors yesterday in Rock Island,
Illinois, for the trial of 17-year-old Sarah Kolb. Attorneys still need to
choose four more jurors and two alternates.
Illinois Circuit Judge James Teros has scheduled opening arguments for
tomorrow.
The Milan, Illinois, teen is charged with first-degree murder and concealment
of the January death of 16-year-old former Texan Adrianne Reynolds. Reynolds
had lived in Kilgore and Longview, Texas, before moving to East Moline,
Illinois, last year to be with her father.
Police says Kolb strangled Reynolds in a car outside a Moline restaurant and
that 17-year-old Corey Charles Gregory hit Reynolds with a wooden handle.
State Police said the two later tried to burn Reynolds' body.
NEW YORK, Nov. 1 (UPI) -- A
woman who bit a New York police officer on the hand says she thought he was
making a hand gesture indicating oral sex.
Jennifer Swanton has had
problems with the city's uniformed services before, the New York Post
reported. Last year, she accused three firefighters of sexually assaulting her
at their Bronx firehouse. One firefighter was dismissed for failing to
cooperate with investigators, one quit and the third has been suspended
pending a hearing.
In the latest incident,
Swanton was charged with assault and obstruction of justice. Prosecutors say
that when two police officers responded to a burglar alarm at her home in
Staten Island she first refused to admit them and then came out and hit one
officer with a flashlight, biting the other when he tried to restrain her.
