| The Cyclades have long lured British holidaymakers | | 2008-05-27 15:13:00 | | Mykonos and Santorini, the more established destinations, are the most practical options for housebuyers, as you can fly to both direct from Britain. For those in search of a perfect slice of Greece and the chance of a bargain, however, it is worth taking the longer ferry ride to Naxos or Amorgos. All the islands can be reached by ferries that run daily from the mainland ports of Piraeus or Rafina; journey times vary between two and seven hours, depending on the distance and the company you use.If you harbour dreams of renovating a traditional ruin, you may well be disappointed. Many who set out with that idea change their minds once confronted with reality.

| | Topless Woman Lured Perverts in Police Sting | | 2007-12-28 15:50:32 | | Robin Garrison, an off-duty 42-year-old firefighter, was walking in Berliner Park in Columbus, Ohio, in May when he saw a woman sunbathing topless under a tree. He approached her and they started talking and getting comfortable, the woman smiling and resting her foot on his shoulder at one point. Eventually, she asked to see Garrison's penis; he unzipped his pants and complied.

While topless sunbathing is legal in the city's parks, exposing more than that is against the law. The case is just one of the more extreme examples of police stings aimed at luring people into committing crimes, a tactic that has resulted in hundreds of arrests, many convictions and plenty of controversy. Law enforcement officials say that such sting operations are an extremely effective means of lowering crime rates and stopping the criminally minded before they commit worse offenses. From early 2006 to the spring of 2007, there were 160 citations for public indecency in the city, according to an investigation by 10TV News. Among those who were caught in the stings: an Ohio State University doctor, government employees and a retired highway trooper. But such operations veer dangerously close to entrapment, say lawyers, civil libertarians and defendants who've been caught in sting operations. At Garrison's trial, his attorney argued that it was a case of entrapment. "Columbus police utilized this topless woman to snare this man," said Sam Shamansky. "He sees her day after day. He's not some seedy pervert." The argument failed to sway a Franklin County Municipal Court jury that found Garrison guilty of public indecency last month. He was ordered to stay away from the park, placed on a year's probation and fined $250. Cur... | | By: PhreQuency Ent. | | |
