5/16    Can anyone tell me what Greece is hoping for by rejecting austerity?
        From here it seems like the austerity is a pretty generous attempt
        to keep Greece from imploding entirely.   Are they hoping the
        Germans will put them on eternal state welfare, or what?
        Also, why would an outright default mean they must leave the Euro?
        Is it just that they won't be able to pay basic gvmt services

        to Paris and Amsterdam in June and he wasn't kidding. I liked the

Reuters Hapless mugger pleads for bus fare home Tue May 16, 12:19 PM ET BERLIN (Reuters) - A knife-wielding mugger was reduced to pleading with a pensioner for his bus fare home after she refused to hand over her purse, police in northern Germany said Tuesday. Click here With his woolly hat pulled down and the neck of his sweater covering his nose and mouth, the youth pulled a 10-inch blade on the woman in the seaside town of Binz and threatened to stab her unless she handed over her bag, police said. "Then he tried to invoke her pity," a police spokeswoman said. Police believed the youth, aged about 16, was probably a novice as his threats were delivered in the polite form of "you" in German -- "Sie."
