Man banned from girlfriend’s home after noisy sex
LONDON – A British man has been banned from visiting his girlfriend’s home after neighbors complained about noisy sex, a local official said Thursday.
A court barred Adam Hinton, 32, from being within 110 yards of his 29-year-old girlfriend Kerry Norris’ apartment, Brighton and Hove City Council spokesman Mike Taggart said.
Residents of Norris’s publicly owned home had been complaining since 2006 about thumping music, banging headboards and screamed obscenities, Taggart said.
Neighbors also complained about Norris sunbathing naked in her yard, and were upset that a 6-year-old child in the building had been “subjected to the sort of obscenities you wouldn’t want a 6-year-old to hear,” the spokesman said.
“She is a classic nightmare neighbor,” Taggart said, insisting the case was not about sex. “It’s about allowing your neighbors to have a normal decent life without being disturbed.”
The court granted the city council’s request for an injunction banning Hinton from the apartment because Norris had ignored a previous court order demanding that she be more quiet, Taggart said.
Norris last week was forced to pay $560 in fines and court costs for breaking the “noise abatement order,” Taggart said.
Neither Norris or Hinton could be immediately located for comment. Brighton and Hove is located in southern England.
‘Montauk Monster’ Has Hamptons in a Tizzy
Gawker Media
A screen grab of Gawker’s original story on the ‘Montauk Monster.’
What’s brownish-purple, goes to the beach and stinks of rotting flesh?
New York’s celebrity-obsessed Hamptons summer season got even sillier this week when a strange-looking, very dead creature washed up on a beach in Montauk at the far eastern end of New York’s Long Island.
On Tuesday afternoon, a photo was posted on Gawker, the Big Apple’s reigning gossip blog, which treated the Montauk monster with characteristic respect: “Good Luck With Your Hell Demons.”
The animal looks like a bloated, hairless dog, except that it’s got an eagle-like beak, a prominent brow ridge and a curiously elongated front paw.

Speculation immediately arose that it might be a hitherto unknown marine mammal, a sea turtle without its shell, an artful Photoshop creation or — cue the ” X-Files” theme — an escaped experiment from the government animal-disease research facility on Plum Island, just offshore from Montauk.
The animal’s resting on sand in the photo, with no other indication of location or scale except for what appears to be a large fly on its back.
Gawker itself thought it had broken the case late on Tuesday, when it noted that the woman who’d e-mailed in the photo worked for a viral-marketing firm.
It all tied in neatly to “Cryptids Are Real,” an upcoming Cartoon Network show about mysterious, scientifically undocumented animals such as Bigfoot, the Loch Ness Monster and the Chupacabra.
But the tipster, whom New York magazine identified as Los-Angeles based Alanna Navitski, denied that her efforts were part of any campaign.
She said she’d gotten the picture from her sister, who’d gotten it herself from a friend in New York who actually saw the darn thing.
“I saw the monster,” said another witness, a waiter at a nearby restaurant, to New York magazine. “I just came walking down the beach and everyone was looking at it. No one knew what it was. It kind of looked like a dog, but it had this crazy-looking beak. I mean, I would freak out if something like that popped up next to me in the water.”
Plum TV, a sort of upscale public-access network carried on Hamptons cable TV as well as in other tony summer resorts, promises an interview Friday with the original photographer as well as two other women who say they saw the animal.
FOXNews.com thinks one commenter on the Plum TV Web site may have figured it out.
The short beak-snout and long, flipper-like paw certainly don’t belong to a dog, but they could easily belong to a young raccoon whose fur and nasal cartilage rotted away in the water. Check out images of raccoon skulls here and here, and this image of a raccoon’s paw.
To complicate matters, no one seems to know exactly where the mysterious beastie is now.
It’s no longer at the beach where it was supposedly found; then again, the sand it’s resting on in the photo could be anywhere in the world.
“They say an old guy came and carted it away,” Navitski told New York magazine. “He said, ‘I’m going to mount it on my wall.’”

PULAU BATU PUTIH AND TERRITORIAL WATERS
(Versi Bahasa Malaysia di akhir artikel ini)
1. We had expected the International Court of Justice to declare that Pulau Batu Putih is ours, together with South Ledge and Middle Rocks.
2. But the decision of the Court left me flabbergasted. On the one hand Pulau Batu Putih which is nearer Malaysia and very much farther from Singapore is awarded to Singapore while the two rocks which are part of the same shoal and further away from Malaysia than Pulau Batu Putih are awarded to Malaysia.
3. No decision was made as to the marine boundary. It must be assumed that the shoals are in Malaysian territorial waters, since the decision to give Pulau Batu Putih to Singapore is based on some obscure letter written by a minor Johor official while under British rule to a British official in Singapore. Rightly it should have been sanctioned and written under the authority of the Sultan in Council.
