My pleasure Daydreamer, glad to help.............On another note....the more influential mods must have agreed......

It isn´t just women. In this particular case the victims were none white females.

The list could go on and on, John Wayne Gacy.....note all his victims were male, most only boys.

Actually, it´s amazing the amount of differences there are among serial killers.....

"Psychosis is rarely noted among serial killers. The predominant psychiatric diagnosis noted in the group tends toward the psychopathic, meaning they suffer from traits within a specific cluster of dysfunctional personality characteristics, those most commonly associated with Antisocial Personality Disorder or Dissocial personality disorder.[8][9] Psychopaths lack empathy and guilt, are egocentric and impulsive, and do not conform to social, moral and legal norms. Psychopaths often follow a distinct set of rules which they have created for themselves rather than following social norms set in place by society. They may appear to be quite normal and often even charming, a state of adaptation that psychiatrist Hervey Cleckley named the "mask of sanity"."

I think the reason "we" allow it to go on uncontested is because most of us are in various stages of a state of  denial, as well as just plain not wanting to get involved.  Nothing happens without action, and action requires time and energy.  "We" are too busy to get involved.....

It is easy to look at this and think that this was just a very sick man and an exception.. However, the reality is that violence against women happens at alarming rates every minute and nothing is being done about it..

Did you call, send an email....?........it does help

"Thirty-two-year-old Khristian Oliver is set to be executed at 6pm Texas time (12 midnight GMT) in the Huntsville prison in Texas tomorrow. In Texas the Board of Pardons and Paroles has the power to recommend that the governor commute a death sentence, which it has not so far done. However, the state governor Rick Perry can still issue a stay of execution (and request that the paroles board reconsider its decision if it is a negative one), and Amnesty has issued an ´urgent action´ appeal (www.amnesty.org.uk/deathpenalty) and its supporters are calling on Governor Perry to intervene. "

True, but sticking your head in the sand and pretending won´t help.....The thing that shocks and sickens me the most, is the fact they had multiple warnings about him, but did nothing!!! What does it take to get attention when women are being abused?

Convicted rapist charged with murder after multiple female bodies found in his home. 

What the????

"The neighbor of the man, who was arrested Saturday night after the bodies were found, said the police had done little, despite the calls.

Fawcett Bess, 57, the owner of Bess Chicken and Pizza, across the street from the house, said that about two weeks ago, he found the man, Anthony Sowell, in the bushes alongside Mr. Sowell’s house naked and standing over a woman who was bloodied, beaten and also naked. Mr. Bess called 911, he said, and an ambulance soon took the woman away. But the police showed up two hours later and never interviewed him, he said.

“Nobody did anything because she is a girl walking around the streets,” Mr. Bess said. He said he did not know what had happened to the woman, or if the police had followed up on the matter.

Mr. Bess said that a month earlier, he had been approached by another woman who showed him bruises and blood on her neck that she claimed were from an attack by Mr. Sowell. The woman told Mr. Bess that the police had taken a report but appeared to do little investigating, he said.

“If people had come to tell us about this guy’s history, then maybe we would have paid more attention,” he said.

The claims were supported by police records that indicate Mr. Sowell was accused by one woman of choking and raping her in his house on Sept. 22. It was after this accusation that the police decided to conduct the search in which they found the decaying bodies. Police records indicate it took several weeks to assign an officer to the case and to obtain a search warrant.

Police records also show that on Dec. 8, 2008, another woman filed a report accusing Mr. Sowell of stopping her in front of his house and forcing her to the back door, where he punched, choked and tried to rape her."

Ewww.....do you know how he is? I would think a situation like that would be life threatening.

Actually, it looks like she ate all of Slavica, Daydreamer and LIR´s cakes.....

Have a wonderful one.....

Not sure if what you refer to has to be a letter, but the some of the nouns are: snitch, fink, weasl, stool pigeon, informant......although those are not necessarily anonymous.........and these are USA terms in particular.

Then there is the term Whistleblower, but that is considered heroic in as much as they are bringing to light practices which are against the public interest....think big tobacco....

Ahmmm..........welcome back...again dear TheAenigma

Ghost hunters checking your building? Hopefully you have gone home to eat by now.  

OTOH (On The Other Hand)....it would be nice if some of those extra doctors could be sent here.

I am sure you are most probably correct regarding the turban as a status symbol in the Ottoman empire, however......there are quite a few Islamic groups who wore, and still wear, turbans today.....

Have you not seen the many photographs of men in Afghanistan? Have you seen photos from the Bedu of Arabia? Have you ever seen the Tuareg of North Africa?

The Sikh turban has very stringent guides....and is mandatory for them to wear. The black panthose you mentioned is for the style for a youth, not a man.
