Mother-of-four Francisca Yawson, 37, stole almost £100,000 from Roman Catholic church to fund ‘high lifestyle’. Suspended sentence because vagina.

Our thanks to Nigel for this. The end of the piece:

“Mr Evans [J4MB: defence lawyer] said that Yawson had found the stress of the proceedings, combined with having a newborn child, “very difficult”.

Judge Mark Weekes ordered her to pay £1,000, carry out 150 hours of unpaid work and 15 hours of a rehabilitation requirement.”

The bottom line? The woman stole £100,000 that could have gone to supporting homeless people (mainly men) and food banks and has to pay back… er… £1,000. If that’s an appropriate punishment, I’m a bluefin tuna.

Nigel writes:

“And up pops another “suspended” sentence. Of course it had to be because how can we close women’s prisons otherwise? Of course a “mum” and black … well no wonder the Police were a bit off and on in their investigation. “Intersectionality” don’t you know.”

Our website Campaign for Merit in Business was created in the light of the considerable evidence of a causal link between increasing gender diversity on boards and corporate financial decline.

‘Penisgate’ at the Olympics: why inject acid into your penis, and what are the health risks?

A piece in The Guardian. An extract:

How does penis size affect ski jumping?

Before the start of the season, ski jumpers have to have their suits made up based on the measurements of their body length, including crotch height determined by an FIS-approved 3D body scanner in the presence of a doctor, stripped down to their underwear and with particular stipulations around posture.

The dimensions of that suit is strictly regulated because the total size of the suit can have a “significant effect” on the amount of lift that you can generate, which allows them to jump further, says Associate Prof Dan Dwyer, from Deakin University’s School of Exercise and Nutrition Sciences.

Enlarging the penis with hyaluronic acid could provide a benefit when the athlete is subject to this standardised body measurement process, as the dimensions recorded of their body would be larger than they might have been otherwise, which then allows them to be permitted to have a slightly larger ski suit made, Dwyer says. “And that slightly larger ski suit has a larger surface area which can then generate a small amount of extra lift.”

Sandro Pertile, the men’s race director for the International Ski and Snowboard Federation (FIS), says “every extra centimetre on a suit counts. If your suit has a 5% bigger surface area, you fly further. Of course, this is a competitive sport and everyone’s on the limit with the rules because everyone wants to win.”
