Once upon a time, a robber would walk up to a teller, hand over a threatening note, and flee with the contents of the teller's drawer or - in extreme cases - the loot stored in the vault. With the public's increasingly widespread use of ATM machines, some thieves have taken to hanging around the machines and robbing patrons after they withdrew their cash. With the implementation of security cameras and exploding dye packs - not to mention the increase in the number of citizens packing weapons, criminals have chosen a seemingly less risky method: stealing the "bank" itself.

It was bad enough when you had to worry about rough-looking thugs wandering around in your neighborhood (your next-door neighbor's dropout son notwithstanding). Nowadays, it seems you have to be suspicious of everybody; even the June Cleaver types are turning to crime.

Congratulations, Atlanta! If you enjoyed the little "sprinkle" we got yesterday afternoon, you were probably ecstatic about today's afternoon drive time, because it looks like a repeat of yesterday's deluge. Commuters have the not-so-rare opportunity to observe rivers where streets used to be, and for those who are fans of light shows, yesterday's staccato lightning strikes (over 1,000 in a single 15-minute period, according to Channel 2 Chief Meteorologist Glenn Burns), similar festivities are likely to occur this afternoon and into the evening.

A shocking expose and practical resource book, i missed me after the terror, during the years of unbearable sorrow: trafficking the holy Spirit, by Alan Allen (Trafford-available May 15) includes testimony, church canon, documentation, healing resources, and a directory of clergy perps by state, country and diocese. Adult survivors of childhood trauma share non-graphic, personal stories stripping euphemisms of 'child abuse' and 'inappropriate touching' to unmask the terror perpetrated against them by sadists, psychopaths, sociopaths and the criminally insane hidden behind the clichés and collars and habits. |
