Talking Trash Has Never Been This Polite

BERLIN - Fed up with garbage-strewn streets, Berlin has devised a solution that it thinks might work - garbage cans that say thank you. Beginning next spring, the city's trash service will build electronics into some of the street-side trash cans that will let them speak or sing to the public. "We want to encourage people in a nice, funny way to throw their trash in the baskets and not on the street," said the official, Bernd Mueller. They will be installed at heavily visited areas such as the Reichstag building. The wastebaskets will be silent after dark, however. "Some people might feel uncomfortable if these things said something to them at night," Mueller said. Instead, lights around the basket's opening will glow green. Mueller did not say how much the talking trash cans would cost or exactly how many baskets will be programmed.

Call In On Crime on Television tonight
Call in on Crime will be on Channel 58 news tonight, Saturday, November 15, on the 6:00 p.m. and 10:00 p.m. news. Rebekah Wood was in the studio today during our program doing the interviews, so we expect this to be a wonderful story.

Tune in tonight!

FROM THE SPIELMANNSZUG after their crowning Saturday:

Did anyone find a antique silver bracelet with diamonds in it on Saturday. If so could you please call Glen Melcher at 414-931-4323 during the day or 262-783-4486 in the evening. His daughter lost it Sat. night and it is a family heirloom. Please pass this on to anyone else who may have been there Sat.

They have already checked the hall and could not find it after the dance.

Your help in this is very much appreciated.

JS Online: And now, for life without Bonnie: "GOING NATIONAL

'Call In On Crime,' airing 11 a.m. Saturdays on WEMP-AM (1250), has been nationally syndicated by Talk One Network and is popping up on nearly a dozen stations around the country, including the Los Angeles area.

Creator-producer Tom Balistreri has been doing the crime show for a decade now. Greenfield Police Chief Francis Springob and Glendale police officer Joel Dhein are the current co-hosts."

They did it again. The Call In On Crime got on the Journal Sentinel's radio column!!! Congrats, guys!

Call In On Crime.Org
I have to give Tom, Frank and Joel their due. This past week, they were visited by a TV6 news crew and made the 9:00 news. Now, generally bad things are happening when you make the news, but they were on the news for the right reasons. They were on the news thanks to their new syndicated radio status.

We all expect lots of people to be tuning in next week to check out the Call In On Crime guys thanks to the exposure. They really do have some excitement being generated about their program so don't miss out! Tune in next week, right after the Stimmung Stunde!
