There is no machine that we can drop an eyelash into and come up with the DNA profile, fingerprints and mugshot of the owner in 2 minutes. * When you see an emergency vehicle behind you with its lights and sirens on: pull to the RIGHT, and Stop.

POPSBBC: "Canadian hitman admits 28 deaths" Gallant's unintentional victims included a waitress he wounded in 2000 while killing Robert Savard, an associate of the Hells Angels motorcycle gang, who was using her as a human shield. In 1999, he mistakenly shot dead a private detective living in an apartment formerly occupied by his intended target. Acting on information provided by the killer, police arrested 10 people across Quebec last week in connection with dozens of biker-related murders. Gallant fled to Europe after police found a sample of his DNA on a glass in a restaurant in Quebec which linked him to the murder of a bar-owner in Ste-Adele, north of Montreal.

POPSDesigners Square Off: Sexy vs. Classy Despite the number of foreign-born designers showing in New York, they manage to produce little variation in the prototypical woman: she’s either good or she’s bad. Jason Wu, who became famous overnight for his white inaugural gown for Michelle Obama, placed little tiaras on his models, their hair center-parted and their cheeks rosy. His women are resolutely good, with taste — rather than sex appeal — reflected in the checked wool jackets, a lapis blue sheath scattered with French knots, and a gray microcheck cashmere dress with black embroidered cap sleeves.
