Singer Amy Winehouse has been arrested and held overnight in Norway for possession of cannabis.

Winehouse was released on Friday morning after paying a fine of 500 euros (£350; $714), a prosecutor said.

She, her husband Blake Fielder-Civil and a third person were arrested at a hotel in Bergen after being found with 7g (0.25oz) of the drug, he added.

The singer is due to perform in the city on Friday evening before a concert in Norwegian capital Oslo on Saturday.

Winehouse will then travel to the Netherlands, where her European tour continues on Monday.


"She's paid the fine, so this thing is over for us now," Norwegian prosecutor Lars Morten Lothe told the Associated Press.

The arrests were made after a tip-off.

Winehouse, who won two prizes at the Music of Black Origin (Mobo) awards in London last month, was forced to cancel a series of concerts and appearances after reportedly being treated for drug addiction.

The US leg of her tour in September was shelved while she continued to address problems with her health, and is now expected to take place early next year.

The singer is also due to perform a string of dates around the UK, starting in Birmingham on 14 November.

I'm not so much of a fan of the Foo's based on their studio stuff but what I have seen of them live, they do seem to put on an incredible show.  Glad you had a great time!

A worried man with a worried mind
No one in front of me and nothing behind
There's a woman on my lap and she's drinking champagne
Got white skin, got assassin's eyes
I'm looking up into the sapphire tinted skies
I'm well dressed, waiting on the last train

Bridge #1:
Standing on the gallows with my head in a noose
Any minute now I'm expecting all hell to break loose

Chorus
People are crazy and times are strange
I'm locked in tight, I'm out of range
I used to care, but things have changed

This place ain't doing me any good
I'm in the wrong town, I should be in Hollywood
Just for a second there I thought I saw something move
Gonna take dancing lessons do the jitterbug rag
Ain't no shortcuts, gonna dress in drag
Only a fool in here would think he's got anything to prove

Bridge #2
Lot of water under the bridge, Lot of other stuff too
Don't get up gentlemen, I'm only passing through

(chorus)

I've been walking forty miles of bad road
If the bible is right, the world will explode
I've been trying to get as far away from myself as I can
Some things are too hot to touch
The human mind can only stand so much
You can't win with a losing hand

Bridge #3
Feel like falling in love with the first woman I meet
Putting her in a wheel barrow and wheeling her down the street

(chorus)

I hurt easy, I just don't show it
You can hurt someone and not even know it
The next sixty seconds could be like an eternity
Gonna get low down, gonna fly high
All the truth in the world adds up to one big lie
I'm in love with a woman who don't even appeal to me

Bridge #4
Mr. Jinx and Miss Lucy, they jumped in the lake
I'm not that eager to make a mistake

Things Have Changed - Bob Dylan

Karma for Madagas for having it in his sig

Five boys aged 12 to 14 have been locked up for two years each for killing a pensioner as he played cricket with his teenage son.

Ernest Norton, 67, came under a hail of sticks and stones as he and son James practised bowling together in February last year at Erith leisure centre in Kent.

Two stones, one the size of half a brick, struck the father of two on the temple and fractured his cheekbone, and he collapsed to the ground with a heart attack.

Five boys, one of whom was just 10 at the time, were convicted at the Old Bailey of manslaughter and violent disorder in August.


The youngest, now 12, and his brother, 13, as well as three other boys all aged 14 were given sentences in youth detention by Judge Warwick McKinnon.

The judge described their conduct as "utterly disgraceful and criminally irresponsible".

Some of the boys wept as they hugged their parents, many of whom were also crying, before being taken down.

The judge described it as a "sorry and tragic case".

He said: "A child would realise your actions were dangerous, running the risk that injury would result. I am satisfied that each one of you were aware of that danger.

"No sentence can restore the human life that has been needlessly and senselessly lost by this display of mindless violence."

I just don't understand how kids of that age can be capable of such acts.  So, so sad.

#460 Re: The Garden » What are your plans for Halloween? » 934 weeks ago

We are having a small party for my son and a couple of his friends on the Sat before Hallowe'en.  The night itself I'll probably dig out a couple of scary flicks if I feel like it.  No trick or treaters come here as I live way out in the sticks.
