We all know that there are sick people in this world … but why are so many of them so-called pillars of the community? Well, one anonymous “Poo Jogger” was horrifying an Australian neighborhood with his excrement . But he has now been exposed. His reign of terror has come to an end. Last Septamber, a female “Mad Pooper” was terrorizing Colorado Springs . But she’s not one of a kind. Brisbane’s Poo Jogger has been leaving his (fortunately delible) mark on a Greenslopes apartment block. This has been going on for months. It is believed that he has struck at least 30 times. But this villain’s campaign of olfactory and psychological torment came to an end. It seems that he never expected that one of his victims would be proactive enough to lie in wait with a camera at the ready. After Steve Smith followed the sightings of human feces enough to get a good grasp of the Poo Jogger’s route and schedule, he hid, waiting to expose the miscreant responsible. Was it some disaffected youth? Some impoverished man with few options? An oversized dog who also leaves toilet paper at the scene? The Poo Jogger has been identified as Brisbane resident Andrew Douglas Macintosh. He is 64 years old. Macintosh is the national quality manager at a major Australian retirement community company. He also happens to be a member of the Brisbane City Council board. So, just like on virtually every episode of Scooby Doo , the unidentified culprit striking fear into the hearts of the innocent was just some rich guy. As you can imagine, Twitter had a field day. While Macintosh has resigned from the company at which he works — for obvious reasons — it seems unlikely that he will face real consequences. Queensland police only charged him with a single count of “public nuisance.” A bit of a surprise, considering that he is accused of having “nuisanced” in this neighborhood at least 30 times. Additionally, his attorneys are reportedly negotiating this down to a fine rather than a criminal charge. So, like we said, no real consequences for someone doing the unthinkable. Though perhaps he’ll face some social reprisals, at least. Hard to be a pillar of the community when you’re infamous for leaving pillars around a community. Queensland police made a frankly incredible statement, saying: “Just before 5pm on 11th May, the man attended a unit complex on Logan road and did a poo.” Police note that there were signs of premeditation. “He did have toilet paper on him though. At least he made sure his bum was clean, if not the surrounding area.” You know, there are plenty of people in this world who can’t bring themselves to even use a friend’s bathroom — let alone a stall in some public restroom. So we question how a person could physically make themselves defecated in open areas in a neighborhood near people’s homes. Not to mention the more pressing quesiton of why . This world is full of worse things than any of us would care to imagine. But they do make for some entertaining headlines sometimes.
Justin Bieber and his entourage were detained at the Brisbane, Australia airport by agents who found weed on one of his pals, according to reports. A security check by customs agents turned up an unknown amount of pot on a 23-year-old in Justin’s entourage. The suspect was fined and released. The incident took place late last month, according to TMZ. Interestingly, Australian Federal Police say that a 19-year-old was detained and released after getting a stern warning for using “inappropriate language.” The young man reportedly swore at the officers. Hmm. Sources close to the incident claim that the troubled pop superstar, lover of Brazilian porn stars and ex-boyfriend of Selena Gomez was in fact that man. As for the stoner, sources close to Justin say he also had a disposable vaporizer – an electronic device to smoke marijuana – with residue in it. An attorney for the suspect appeared in court to pay the fine on his behalf in what was yet another incident in a tour full of notable run-ins and altercations. His bodyguard was arrested last month in Hawaii after allegedly attacking a photographer on the beach, and caught attacking a shutterbug in Sydney. Bieber also boned Tati Neves and possibly other hookers / strippers during his whirlwind tour of Brazil, and was famously filmed sleeping it all off. Rock n’ roll.

My name is Abby and I live in Brisbane, Australia and my Bieber experience was the most hilarious and most memorable time. It was Justin’s first ever concert in Australia and I was lucky enough to meet him twice; once in 2010 and once in 2011 on the exact same day. My friend Johanna who is a part of @jbsource rang me at 7am on the day of the concert. Naturally I was sleeping and didn’t answer it in time so I texted her asking what was wrong. I got a reply of her hysterically saying, “KENNY DMED ME ON TWITTER AND IS GIVING ME 4 MEET AND GREETS”. Johanna, our friend Geena and I had planned to go to the concert together so Johanna being the greatest and most generous friend alive gave us one each and another to our other friend @courtneyyhudson. We were 2nd last in line and it came our turn and we walked into the room. Justin said hey to us all. I walked in 2nd last and Justin had already put his arms around the girls to take a picture. I really wanted a hug so I politely asked Justin if I could have one. He said, “Of course you can”, so he gave me a hug. Seeing as I had already met him once, Geena stood next to him to take the photo and we had all discussed beforehand that we wanted Kenny to be in our photo. “KENNY, KENNY GET IN OUR PHOTO” so he jumps in and we took the picture when Johanna yells out, “WAIT WAIT NO OMG I WASN’T READY, PLEASE TAKE ANOTHER ONE”. Justin and Kenny were like okay take another one, meanwhile I had already taken my hands from around everyone and didn’t realize we were taking another photo, so I had to quickly get my hands back around Geena and Kenny and awkwardly enough my hand just had to sit on Kenny’s let’s just say “lower back”. I tried my hardest not to look awkward or laugh but after we took the photo I just blurted out, “How awkward my hand was just on Kenny’s butt”. Kenny laughed and Justin looked at me smiling and just started laughing. I didn’t know if I had offended anyone by saying it but everyone just laughed. Then Kenny told Justin that we were from @jbsource (Even though it was just Johanna) At the time Justin was wearing a beanie and I really wanted to see his new haircut so I asked, “Why are you covering up your new hair with a beanie?” and responded with, “Um, I just got off a 7 hour flight”. I said, “Well I’m sure it looks nice regardless” and he just smiled and said thank you. Johanna asked him if he could tweet Jbsource because he hasn’t tweeted them in ages and she made him pinky promise that he will, which he did. We all said bye and Justin and Kenny said bye and we thanked them. Overall it was an amazing experience and his concert was AMAZING even though he had a sore back he performed. I will never forget what Kenny did for us and I will never be able to repay Johanna. It will be an experience I will remember for the rest of my life. -@abbyglasby View original post here: My name is Abby and I live in Brisbane, Australia and my Bieber…
My name is Lilee and I live in Townsville, Australia . One thing that really bothers me is that people instantly assume that I am ‘in love’ with Justin Bieber just because I am a fan of his, but for me this is not the case. I can honestly say that I simply just appreciate his music and nothing else. On December 9th, 2010 myself and my two friends Nicole (@thatnicolekidd) and Candace (@candiebritton) bought our VIP tickets through a pre-sale and were lucky enough to get second row center stage seats. Before this I had never cried over anything Bieber related but I think it was purely over the fact that we had prayed for these exact seats in the exact section and God had answered our prayers. I honestly mean that. Finally, April 22nd 2011 came and we flew from Townsville to Brisbane which was where the concert was. As we were waiting in the Brisbane Airport my friends and I were saying how this didn’t seem real when just at that moment this older couple were walking towards us. I couldn’t figure out who they were but I just knew that I knew their names. Suddenly it hit me that they were Justin’s Grandparents. His Grandmother walked past us and I said hello. She replied and I said I’d see her at the concert on Tuesday. She replied “Yes Tuesday. See you girls there!” She was absolutely friendly and more than happy to talk to us. So that night we went into Brisbane city and were walking near the Hilton hotel when these 3 guys walked passed us. I thought one of them was Scrappy but I wasn’t sure so I didn’t say anything. But then he started talking and I just knew it was him. About 20 minutes later we walked to McDonalds where we found Scrappy and a bunch of other guys sitting down. I worked up the courage to approach him later on out on the street and he was absolutely shocked that I recognised him . He introduced us to some of the other crew members as he conversed with us. They all made fun of my accent and I got about 10 photos with Scrappy and a random video. Before we left he told us he’d wave to us at the concert since he knew where we were sitting. The next day we went back into the city and met a bunch more people from the crew including Scrappy again. He told us that Justin had gotten stuck in Bali due to problems with his jet. I met Michael Vargas 3 times that day and night, Legaci, the other back up dancers , more stage crew members, Marcus (the One Less Lonely Boy) who is incredibly funny and we spoke to Scrappy again. The next day was April 26th – concert day. We basically spent all day getting ready. When we arrived at the Brisbane Entertainment Center everyone had to line up at security. My friends and I were at the front of the line and across from where we were you could see into the windows at the top of the venue. At one point, Ryan Good walked by and so did Justin. He opened the window and waved and was hoping up and down trying to tease us. Of course everyone went crazy. It was adorable. So when we got inside the venue to our seats Scrappy was doing his thing on stage and waved to us as promised. Several times girls kept screaming and pointing to backstage as if they’d seen something. I looked and I saw Justin’s head running away. This only got me more excited for the show. When DJ Tay James was on stage doing his thing Scooter walked on stage to talk to him and I managed to get a photo of Scooter looking directly at my camera. In the first song of the show I held up this tiny sign which read, ‘Hey Dan, @teamkanterAUS’ with an arrow pointing down at me. You see, I own that account and Dan Kanter follows me on it and has tweeted and rt’d me a few times. I literally held the sign up for 2 seconds when he saw it and pointed at me and mouthed ‘OMG, THAT’S YOU?!’ with a massive smile on his face. Of course I and my friends lost it. Dan threw his first guitar pick to me and I caught it. During the night he threw me another one so I have 2 of his guitar picks. He also kept throwing them at my friends and one of them was lucky enough to catch one. Dan was constantly smiling and waving to us all night. Legaci also recognised us and randomly waved which was awesome. At the beginning of ‘Baby’ Michael Vargas was standing directly in front of me when he randomly remembered me from the day before I guess, and so he pointed at me and waved. After the concert, we drove into the city. We randomly decided to walk down some random part of the mall when who do we see? Dan Kanter and Scrappy. They were at some bar with Allison Kaye, Scooter’s assistant and a bunch of other people from the crew. I didn’t even wave at Dan, he just recognised us, waved and then came straight over to us. I shook his hand and introduced myself. He wouldn’t stop thanking me for the account I made for him and he also told me that he had hoped to meet me on the Australian leg of the My World Tour. I died at that point. Haha. He is honestly the sweetest, most humble and genuine person I’ve ever met . We had a normal conversation with him for about 20 minutes, got photos etc and he told us that Justin and his crew are planning on coming back to Australia next year! That same night we also ran into Ryan Good, Scooter and Carin. The next morning we were sitting in the bar at the Sofitel when Dan walked in and came over to our table and was like ‘What’s up guys?’ I don’t think I’ve ever come across any ‘famous’ person in such a ‘normal’ way. He was just like anyone else. Before he left we spoke again. Ryan, Allison, Alfredo, Scooter, Kenny, PJ and Carin were also there. Kenny, Alfredo and PJ stayed behind while the others left for Sydney. We knew Justin was on bed rest so we bought $75 purple flowers and a card which his Grandpa so kindly took up to Justin for us. Candace and I had to fly back to Townsville that night and Nicole was staying for Chris Brown’s concert. Before I left we had a conversation with Alfredo and got photos. The next morning back in Townsville I check my twitter to find I have a mention from someone saying “So you’re one of the girls that gave Justin flowers. Did you get the note from his Grandma?” I freaked out and called Nicole and our other friend Anj (@anjieg) who were still in Brisbane. Long story short, Nicole ran into Justin’s Grandparents before they left for Sydney and we got our note. One of our friends Maddie didn’t get the chance to come to Brisbane for Justin’s concert so her and I spontaneously bought flights to Adelaide and left 2 days later without concert tickets. We knew God would provide for us so we went anyway. In Adelaide we met my friend Anj who was also going to the concert there. We had hoped to be one of the lucky ones who got given tickets by Scooter or Kenny but sadly they didn’t seem to come out. We waited outside the venue in 5 degree weather all night. I knew we couldn’t give up. Exactly half way through the show these 3 random girls came out and gave us their tickets!! We sprinted through the venue screaming, ran down the stairs and into the Auditorium where Justin was half way through performing ‘One Time’. Maddie lost it. She was so upset that all her friends had already seen Justin and she hadn’t but now there she was.. in the same room as Justin Bieber. We couldn’t believe how Good God had been to us. We travelled all the way from Northern Australia to the very bottom of the country with NO tickets to go to a SOLD OUT concert and we managed to get in. It’s all about faith. The next day we met Justin’s drummer in an Alley way where we just had a casual conversation about life and traveling. He was amazed we’d traveled so far with no tickets. After that I met Justin’s Grandparents again where I thanked them in person for holding onto our note in Brisbane. I met Ryan Good and Alfredo Flores again. I also met Dan again who recognised me and screamed “OMG HEY! DID YOU GO TO THE SHOW LAST NIGHT?!” I’ll never forget the people I met, the friends I made or how incredible both of Justin’s concerts were. I am forever grateful that he took the time to write myself, Anj, Nicole and Candace a thank you note and I am completely amazed at how lovely, friendly and genuine everyone on Bieber’s crew is. Team bieber forever. April 22nd-May 6th, 2011 Continue reading here: My name is Lilee and I live in Townsville, Australia. One thing…

War correspondent Michael Ware worked for CNN from 2006 until April of this year, during which time he became known for covering the hellscape of our wars in Iraq and Afghanistan with brutal honesty and an keen analytical sense that often cut against the standard talking points. He's since been struggling with post-traumatic stress disorder and today the Brisbane Times is reporting on an event that might have contributed to that — an alleged 2007 war crime that CNN refused to air. Kate Dennehy, who reports that Ware is “set to reveal” the details, describes the incident: Mr Ware tells of the alleged incident he says he witnessed and filmed in 2007 when working for US news giant CNN, but claims the network decided the footage was too graphic to go to air. He alleges that a teenager in a remote Iraqi village run by the militant Islamist group, al-Qaeda was carrying a weapon to protect himself. “(The boy) approached the house we were in and the (US) soldiers who were watching our backs, one of them put a bullet right in the back of his head. Unfortunately it didn't kill him,” he tells Australian Story. “We all spent the next 20 minutes listening to his tortured breath as he died.” Ware goes on to describe his mental state during that time, in which he realized that he was “more concerned with the composition” of his photo than he was with intervening in some way. “I indeed had been indifferent as the soldiers around me whose indifference I was attempting to capture,” Ware says. In 2008, Ware gave an interview with Men's Journal's Greg Veis, that hinted at his mental anguish. “I am not the same fucking person,” he tells me. “I am not the same person. I don't know how to come home.” http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/09/21/michael-ware-former-cnn-w_n_733030.html added by: CaptSutter
