CA bans the wave
Cricket Australia (CA) has banned fans from performing the Mexican wave during the fifth Ashes Test at the Sydney Cricket Ground from tomorrow.
CA spokesman Peter Young said the ban had been imposed because of the large volume of rubbish which was thrown into the air during the wave.
"The wave itself is pretty harmless but the problem is the throwing that’s associated with it," he said.
"That throwing is dangerous and if you are injured by a heavy object it obviously ruins your day out.
"Objects, including heavy objects, have increasingly been thrown and we’ve had instances of people being injured and discomforted, and as such we’ve decided to ban the wave."
The ban is just one of a number of crowd control measures that have been put in place for the Test.

The federal agency sees big profits for medical dispensaries as a sign of illegal high-stakes drug dealing. Advocates say the raids are unfair.

ART! - the New Year is Coming
The presentation ceremony for the First Annual Ninjie Awards has been postponed until the new year to give final entrants a chance to still make it big in ’06.AA There’s a lot to say about the year behind us, as always, so stick around for that.
Because of technical difficulties we haven’t had a proper ART DAY! in a while, and so today I’m pleased to present you with many art entries.AA I could waste your time talking about them here or you could just scroll down.
In keeping with our artspan tradition, we bring you paintings by Nancy Calcutt.AA Born in Southbridge MA and currently residing in Kentucky, with a long list of professional accomplishments, Calcutt is making some ill ish. Nancy has an artspan page that has some really sick pieces that you should most definitely check out.AA I’m just gonna drop a few pieces on you, but really this doesn’t do her justice.AA She has many styles and experiments with different materials.AA Go check out her wide range.
Within each of us is a world.AAAA By drawing and painting people and animals, I explore their world, dig deeper and delve into what is behind and beyond the surface.AAAA My work is a lot about connection and empowerment.AAAA I paint the relationships that people have with animals by combining the human and animal in one composition.AAAA I also merge animals and humans, oftentimes creating what appear to be new creatures, imbued with a renewed life force and strength that result from their unity…the power of two as opposed to one.I have difficulty with any type of falseness.AAAA Animals don’t pretend to be anything other than what they are.AAAA They communicate with us in nonverbal ways, which can be much truer than words and a lot more fun.AAAA Animals are comfortable in their own skin and keep us connected to the earth and the sensual world.AAAA We could all learn a few lessons from them.AAAA Animals have no opinions about art or how one should do their portraits, freeing artists to depict them any way they see fit.
Friday’s ART DAY! at myninjaplease is brought to you by viewer support.

Anarchy
"The hallmark of an anarchist society is one where no man may legally compel someone who is not a convicted criminal to do anything, since that would be aggression against an innocent man’s person or property."

Legless in County Durham
A double amputee has been jailed for a year after leading police on a high-speed car pursuit, using modified broom handles to control the vehicle.
Now as some of you may know, before the end of the year (starting tommorrow) we will be giving out the annual "Ninjie" awards for excellence in specific fields. Ladies and Gentlemen, I do believe we have a candidate.
check out the brother of the accused
