ST. GALLEN, Switzerland - A Swiss court has slapped a wealthy speeder

 with a chalet-sized fine — a full &#36;290,000 (NZ&#36;396,435). 



Judges at the cantonal court in St. Gallen, in eastern Switzerland, 

based the record-breaking fine on the speeder's estimated wealth of over

 &#36;20 million (NZ&#36;27.3 million). 



A statement on the court's Web site says the driver — a repeat offender —

			<description>If you are going to pee in public, it's best not to target a police car, as one young West Coast man found out this week. 

&quot;It was like sticking your hand up and saying 'book me',&quot; Greymouth police Sergeant Nigel Orpwood said about Ryan Stentiford's decision to relieve himself on the tyre of a patrol car earlier this month. 

Greymouth District Court heard yesterday that the 21-year-old had been out drinking and was walking home along, funnily enough, Guinness St when he made a detour  ...</description>

			<description>Woman calls police to stop son playing video game





 A frustrated Boston woman called police to say she couldn't get her

14-year-old son to stop playing video games and go to sleep. 



   Police spokesman Officer Joe Zanoli said Monday the

mother called for help around 2.30am local time Saturday to say that

the teenager also walked around the house and turned on all the lights.





  

    Two officers who responded to the house persuaded the child to obey his mother.

			<description><![CDATA[Hi all
<br />
I am new here and the next step in the process for me is the PAT. I can do everything quite easily (even more than 20 push-ups  <img src="http://illiweb.com/fa/i/smiles/affraid.gif" alt="affraid" longdesc="40" /> ), but as for that run; just cannot do it in the allocated time... Have attended a PAT rehearsal. How many chances do you get or is the idea definitely to pass your PAT the first time around? Any tips?
<br />
 
<br />
Thanks guys.]]></description>

			<description>Hi



Am currently in the scope stage of my recruitment process, and although very excited about getting this far, realise that the road ahead is a long one......subsequently have been looking at comms as another option for the mean time.



I received an email today saying that there was a job opening starting in March 2010 so hastily started applying.



One of the criteria is a clean NZ driving license. I have a few demerit points that have been cleared by PNHQ for my police officer  ...</description>

Basically I am turning 16 in January 2010 and will be looking to become an officer when I turn 25 (New Zealand preferably otherwise Australia).

I'm quite smart but I just really can not be bothered with school anymore, and teachers who treat you like your not even a human, I want to get out into the real world, Rather then sitting and chatting to the ladies in class all the time    (maybe not ALL the time).

			<description>Hi all,



I understand from talking to several new members that we have quite a few people that visit the site on a regular basis but have not registered and do not post.



Don't be afraid, register and become part of the community.



We don't bite, honest... just log on and say hi you never know you might find you do have something to contribute.
