The Welshman, who cannot be named to protect his victims' identities, raped at least two of his daughters and even one of the girls born from his decades-long abuse, Swansea Crown Court heard. The sicko told the girls he wanted to teach them how to have sex so they would be ready for future boyfriends and made at least one have sex with other men while he watched, according to WalesOnline. He pretended to use witchcraft to manipulate his victims, even creating a fake mystic who told them to have sex with him, the court heard of the abuse over at least 20 years. These sickening acts of abuse were carried out by a person that was supposed to protect and care for the victims, but instead he systematically controlled their lives, grooming them for his sexual gratification, prosecutor Hayley Fackrell told the court. The details were so horrific jurors were offered counseling, according to the report. I have been involved in criminal cases as a barrister and as a judge for 40 years. This is in the top three worst cases I have ever had to deal with, Judge Paul Thomas told the jury. The man denied 36 charges of rape and one charge of sexual assault but was found guilty on all counts after just four hours' deliberation, WalesOnline said. He will be sentenced next Friday. You will not be surprised to hear a very long prison sentence awaits you, the judge told him. Detective Chief Inspector Paul Jones of Dyfed-Powys Police said he hoped the verdict would help the victims rebuild their lives. It is very difficult to summarize the impact of his crimes upon his victims, Jones said, according to the report. DearWebby's Tech Support Pits From: Shelly Re: Can you filter gmail by date? Dear Webby, I changed jobs an need to weed out old emails. Is there any way to make a filter that will dump all mails from a certain time period or from before a certain date? Thanks Shelly Dear Shelly No, you can't do that. Google has claimed that it is on their To-Do list for ages, but it doesn't look like they are getting any closer to it. Instead they are selling extra space. The fastest way to weed out old mails is to change the settings to show 100 mails per page, click on OLDEST, Select ALL, and DELETE. Then just keep doing that, selecting and deleting 100 mails at a time, until you are up to the date, from which onward you want to keep mails. Yes, I kow that is slow and tedious, but currently that is the fastest possible method. You can configure some hot keys to make it easier. I use ` (the left top key) for selecting ALL on the page, which is a hundred of them and then 1, right next to it, to Delete All Selected. Of course, you have to first sort by date, oldest on top. then just keep hitting `1 until you got all the old stuff deleted. Have FUN! DearWebby Automatically move ALL your settings and programs. Ronnie McInnis walked into a dentist's office and asked how much it would cost to extract a wisdom tooth. "That'll be $80," the dentist said. "That's ridiculous," Ronnie spat. "Isn't there a cheaper way?" "Well," the dentist said, "if I don't use an anaesthetic, I can knock it down to $60." "That's still too expensive," the man whined. "Okay," the dentist countered, "if I save on anaesthetic and simply rip the tooth out with extraction pliers, I could probably get away with charging $20." "Nope," moaned the man. "It's still too much." "Hmmm," the dentist pondered, scratching his head. "If I let one of my students do it for the experience, I suppose I could charge you just $10." "Marvellous," the man beamed. "Could you book my wife for 5:30 next Friday, after she gets off work?"

Every Sunday morning he would take his 7 year old daughter out for a drive in the car. One particular Sunday however, he had a bad cold that he really didn't feel like driving at all. Luckily, his wife came to the rescue and decided that for this Sunday she would take their daughter out. They returned just before lunch and the little girl ran upstairs to see her father. "Well" the father asked, "did you enjoy your ride with Mommy?" "Oh yes Daddy" the girl replied, "and do you know what.......we didn't see a single bastid or dingbat, 'cause Mommy was doing the dingbat stuff herself, and scared them all away!" ___________________________________________________ A Texan is bragging to a Rhode Islander.

"Well", replies the Yankee, "We have some rather slow trains in Rhode Island too, but none that are THAT slow." ___________________________________________________ Legend has it that a certain college philosophy professor asked one question on his final exam. He picked up a chair, put it on his desk and wrote on the board: "Using everything we have learned this semester, prove that this chair does not exist." The students dug deep and wrote like crazy for the whole exam period, some of them churning out thirty pages of heady philosophical debate and logic. But only one student earned an A and he wrote for only a few seconds. His paper read in full, "What chair?" __________________________________________________ Ophelia Dingbatter's NewsNo sermon and not suitable for church, just jokes and fun for grownups.
