British woman hides drugs in wig
A British woman has admitted trying to smuggle drugs under her wig at an airport in Norway, police have said.
A customs officer noticed the passenger had “a lot of hair” and a closer inspection revealed a bag glued to the 32-year-old woman’s head.
Norwegian police believe the kilo package contained cocaine, but are still awaiting test results.
The unnamed woman admitted smuggling drugs but said she was unaware what kind of drugs she was carrying.
The woman was arrested on 15 June at the Vaernes airport, near the city of Trondheim in central Norway.
A statement from the country’s customs service said: “A customs official thought the woman had a lot of hair and found a kilo of cocaine.”
A date for sentencing has yet to be set, but police will ask on Wednesday for the woman to remain in custody while they complete their investigations.
A police spokesman said the woman could face two to three years in jail.

I remember reading, many moons ago, that an American woman had been caught trying to smuggle drugs into a prison by hiding it in the rolls of her flab. From this we can conclude much about our friends across the pond. Also, I too am imagining an Amy Winehouse-style wig. Strange…

RYN: Thanks, but I was meaning advice on what codec is best for encoding my own videos; in terms of efficiency regarding quality vs file size. I already have all the standard codecs for watching other people’s vidoes.

ryn A valid point. However, as I mentioned, all 92ish percent of the canon content on the Lexicon is marked as copyright of J.K. Rowling. I agree with SocksOnRye: She’s just afraid that if the Lexicon is published, no one will buy her encyclopedia. Which, as SOR also noted, is ludicrous: Only Rowling knows everything about Harry Potter, so fans will buy any encyclopedia she’ll write, regardless. ~

Oh, and I didn’t have enough characters to mention: When Warner Bros. put out Chamber of Secrets on DVD, the timeline on Disc 2 was taken, verbatim, from the Lexicon. I think Rowling, Warner Bros., and any judge who rules on that case should take that under consideration. ~
