...The woman was sitting by a building on Main and South Broadway streets and continuously pounding her head on the window.

The officer reported she seemed intoxicated, and she said she did not have anyone to take her home.

As the officer tried to help the woman, she continued to scream at other police officers and other people passing by.

She would not stop despite being asked multiple times to quit screaming. The woman kept yelling that she wanted to be left alone and kept yelling to passersby that they knew her, even though they did not.

Eventually the woman urinated on the sidewalk and flopped onto the ground, according to Menomonie police reports.

The woman was arrested and charged with disorderly conduct.

----------

Telltale evidence
Urine on a toilet bowl rim may well lead to a trespassing charge for an Eau Claire man.

A 23-year-old woman reported she suspected her ex-boyfriend had entered her locked apartment Aug. 9 without her consent.

She told Menomonie police that items had been moved and the toilet seat was up, with urine on the rim.

Her laptop had been used, and the ex-boyfriend was added as a friend on her Facebook page.

The woman said she believes the man wants to start a relationship again, but she is not interested.

She did say if the man told police he entered without consent and agreed to not do it again that she did not want him charged.

If he would not admit to doing those things, she wanted authorities to seek a trespassing charge.

DUBAI...What happened

The Awl had a link to an interesting story about Dubai's demise. It's a great slideshow on Fast Company, the only problem is the interface does this little death march countdown where you have to read each (long) paragraph within fifteen seconds or it will totally move on to the next slide, which you then have to scroll down each time for. (Unless you hit pause) I don't know. It was just an avalanche of moving numbers and pressure, and I wept a little bit.

Crazy stuff happening there though.

And that calling—and here is where I am going to be very direct with you—gets jeopardized when young men who got my daughter pregnant show off their personal giblets in gay men’s magazines for all of America’s men who swing that way to see and then have fantasies about what? I am not sure, but maybe putting it in their mouths like a lozenge, or directing it into another orifice for some sort of fleeting, puerile connection that is enhanced by stimulants like poppers which I have never, ever done.

And, sure my Applebee’s franchise is not some fancy Italian joint, nor is it even in Louisville. It’s in Bozeman, Montana and a lot of these hippies think they are too good for baby back ribs and Crispy Orange Chicken Bowls, but we’re near some bars, and occasionally a hot, sobriety-challenged MILF with shaky morals might wander in here looking for a rendezvous.

More Republican In-Fighting

This story has been on the home page of the NY Post all day. It's written by a conservative columnist who is unhappy with Meghan McCain, whom, last time I checked, basically no one gave a shit about since Nov 08. But god knows, she might be stealing eyeballs from Michelle Malkin and Ann Coulter's bombastic, whiny drivel, and that makes NYP staff retard Kirsten Fleming mad. To wit:
Then when asked by co-host Sherri Shepherd if her parents were treated unfairly during a awkward stumping visit to the show, as opposed to the back scratching, fawning reception the Obama's received, she swept it aside saying, "let's move forward." Way to take them to task, Meghan. You go girl! Her apologist rants are eerily similar to Obama's adventures in overseas contrition

This is regarded as criticism? She didn't do a good job on The View? Who cares? My God. This is what you're devoting column inches to? Didn't Glenn Beck's sad little train ride with Barbara Walters remind us all in the end, that The View doesn't really matter? That no one pays attention to them? Is Meghan McCain even an elected official? Is she even 26 years old? Why bother with her?

More classiness from the Post. "Let's move backward." Or rather, stay mired in the quicksand of low IQs that represent the loudest, shrillest rightie voices.

Make Up Your Mind, Shithead

Dave "Ole" Olson said he and his wife, Annette, organized the "Open Carry Picnic" from noon to 4:30 p.m. at the fairground primarily to inform people of their Second Amendment right to openly carry sidearms.

He plans to hold another event in a few months in Hudson related to First- and Second-Amendment rights, with a nationally-recognized guest speaker.

"This is important to me because it has to do with our liberties," he said. "Our passion is liberty and freedom. In my thinking, the country is going in the wrong direction and people need to know that they have the right to carry a gun."

...

Olson said he actually is not an advocate for the open carry law,

"I am not an advocate of open carry for several reasons; one being that it does give a certain discomfort level to some people," said Olson, a construction contractor.

Americans Demand We Look The Other Way When Our Ballplayers Lick Tits Not Belonging To Their Wives, It is Only Fair!

I have a tip for you, stop smearing Josh Hamilton because your workers have no writing talent and you produce an tattle-tale, garbage website. It is hacks like you that are ruining the country by turning American culture into a joke. You abuse the American right to freedom of press, intended to serve and protect her citizens and hide behind it...Do you care that baseball is America's past-time and is currently struggling to recover from a black eye due to steroids? No. That Josh Hamilton is a hero to many kids and sports fans of all ages and that he should be entitled to his private life as I'm sure all of your alleged "writers" enjoy theirs? No. I bet if you saw your neighbor with another woman behaving inappropriately at a bar, you wouldn't send his wife an email with pictures, captions, and poorly written story would you? Especially if the man was in the physical shape Hamilton is in, because he would kick your ass you little back-biting pussy. What would the collective pulse of the other neighborhood men be if they heard you went around tattling on guys for basically being guys? You would be treated like the degenerate you are. Lucky for you Josh can't call you on behaving like a little bitch, because he'd be shunned again. As such, and in defense of one of my favorite players, I took it upon myself to personally email you and let you know that in 50 years people will remember Josh Hamilton for his HR derby display in Yankee stadium, for his honesty and character, for his undeniable athletic ability, and for his ongoing struggle that media assholes such as yourself have forced him to bear so publicly. However, no one will remember deadspin.com, or you because you are a scumbag that led your life without honor and chased the coattails of great men hoping to shame them for a dollar. Fuck you, and fuck your entire staff of bumbling retards,

Mike R

Yeah, Mike. If only Deadspin would afford Josh the respect he shows his wife and kids, then things would be perfect.

I think in the long run, the pictures will help Josh.

FAN LETTERS GONE WRONG

Okay, I love this John Hughes thing as much as you and find him immensely gracious and admirable. But, come on, I think at times this chick got a little carried away (I probably would have too)...



There were a few months in 1987 when I didn't hear from John. I missed his letters and the strength and power and confidence they gave me and so I sent a letter to Ned Tanen who, by that time, was the President of Paramount Pictures (he died earlier this year). In my letter I asked Mr. Tanen if he knew what was up with John, why he hadn't been writing and if he could perhaps give him a poke on my behalf.



When he didn't respond as fast as I would have liked, I kidnapped his Golden Retriever, and sent him some Polaroids. A box of Breakfast Club schwag arrived Fed Ex.

Not only is Vick the polar opposite of a “Packer person,” but he would likely cost too much money for Thompson to pull the trigger.

Nice analysis, Mark Strotman! God forbid anyone on Bleacher Report actually ever make sense.

Vick would cost "too much money." Sorry, genius. He just got out of prison, hasn't played pro football in two years, is bankrupt and no other teams have expressed any interest whatsoever. Also, the Arena League folded. Remind me of what Vick and his agent would use as, say, leverage, to get him a good deal? The fact that he can go back to doing construction work for about 1/18th of the salary of a really terrible NFL deal? Give me a fucking break, guy.

Never mind how callous and douchey the Packers pretending to be interested in Vick actually is...It was only a year ago that they painted Favre as a crybaby who wouldn't leave them alone, wanting to move on to their "sure thing" Aaron Rodgers--now they totally diss both of these guys by even entertaining the idea of signing a convicted dog killer. Oh well. I think Vick would actually be awesome as a Packer, and it would be a bold move, and I'm sure they would use him as a back-up to Rodgers, but in the wake of their proclamations about their QB situation not too long ago it is pretty weak.

At Cornerstone, where I catch up with him behind the fair-food midway, Bazan laughs when I suggest that he's there trying to save the Christians. "I am. I am really invested, because I came up in it and I love a lot of evangelical Christians—I care what happens with the movement," he says. "The last 30 years of it have been hijacked; the boomer evangelicals, they were seduced in the most embarrassing and scandalous way into a social, political, and economical posture that is the antithesis of Jesus's teaching."

I Think We Know What The Other Body Parts Are

STOCKBRIDGE (AP) - Three Wisconsin women are accused of tying up and assaulting a married man after allegedly finding out he was having affairs with each of them.

The women are each charged with false imprisonment, a felony that carries a maximum prison term of six years.

Calumet County prosecutors say 48-year-old Therese A. Ziemann of Menasha lured the man to a Stockbridge motel last Thursday. Prosecutors say she was soon joined by 43-year-old Michelle Belliveau of Neenah; 43-year-old Wendy L. Sewell of Kaukauna; and the man's wife.

Authorities say Ziemann punched the man in the face and applied Krazy Glue to other body parts. All four women allegedly fled with his cell phone, wallet and vehicle.

Prosecutors also plan to charge the wife.

Online court records didn't list defense attorneys for any woman Monday.
