-Short Attention Span Theater-
take your fetus and call me in the morning
A HOSPITAL gave a girl aged 14 her miscarried baby in a BOTTLE — and told her to take it home. Anguished Stacey Storey was instructed to put the 3in foetus in her fridge and return it to medics the following day. The horrific blunder came only hours after the teenager had miscarried at 11 weeks pregnant.

Most quangos will go
EFL: First Minister Rhodri Morgan says most Welsh quangos will be abolished within two years.
Mr Morgan said an announcement would be made this autumn on which organisations would come under the control of the assembly government. It comes days after he confirmed the Welsh Development Agency, Wales Tourist Board and Elwa will all be scrapped. That signalled the start of the "bonfire of the quangos", promised by Welsh Labour almost 10 years ago. Meeting quango heads in Cardiff on Friday, the first minister said it would not be fair to delay the process beyond 2006 because a Welsh assembly election campaign would be under way the following year. More than 1,500 people work for the three quangos that will definitely be scrapped, but it is not known yet how many of these will be transferred into the Welsh assembly administration.

Quangos - which stands for quasi-autonomous non-governmental organisations - are semi-independent agencies of the assembly government.
And that is today's "Welsh Phrase Of The Day". Extra points will be awarded for those of you who recognise where that theme comes from.

#1  It doesn't sound so much as they're going as that they're being taken over by the Welsh government. Well, I suppose the Welsh Parliament has to have something to do.
