JANITOR KILLS SANTA
After an astonishingly skillful performance by a sanitation technician last week, they were credited with an Employee of the Month award and a special gift.

However, after receiving their reward; the chance to sit with Santa, the Janitor promptly went berserk and attacked him with a mop, causing brain damage that led to his death.

It was later revealed that "Santa" was actually just an ex-actor for hire; "Hellfieg Stromer", famous only for not being a famous actor...

"The workshop appeared to be in a good state; more or less.
Despite searching the area thoroughly, I was unable to find anything offensive.
At least with cleaning performance.

The crew employed to work on this workshop performed acceptably, and I would tentatively recommend that they be assigned to other jobs.

I did however find a disturbing lack of urination facilities, but that's beside the point.

I'll be keeping a keen eye on this restoration crew.

Desperate attempts to curb the outbreak of "Elf Flu" gripping the world at the moment continue, while authorities launch a man hunt for those responsible after scientists revealed the source of the outbreak in each case was a blood tainted gift sent from "Santa's Workshop" in the north pole.

The workshop has denied responsibility despite having packaged the goods.

They instead claim a sanitation corporation is responsible.

NORTH POLE QUARANTINED
The ongoing efforts of world governments to address the limitless swarm of parasite carrying tropical flies that have plagues the north pole have led to the entire area being quarantined; some 200 square miles.

Scientists cannot explain how the flies have survived, but they do know the cause;

traces of Elf blood within a workshop near the north pole.

Various agencies are at present seeking suspects. Primary among them is the restoration crew.

======================
ELF DIES ON THE JOB
Tragic news this week after an Elf was shot to death while delivering presents on Christmas eve.

The Elf, reportedly slipped in through a window, but was shot after being mistaken for a thief.
This may be due to the Elf having been covered in black soot.

The Elf's employer states that the soot came from the workshop, the result of a scorch mark not cleaned up by the restoration crew employed to clean up last week.
Naturally they are being prosecuted.

ANGRY FAMILIES PROSECUTE "SANTA"
After countless reports of goods recieved from "Santa's Workshop" containing black residue, families around the world are prosecuting "Santa" for ongoing cases of tuberculosis.

"Santa's Workshop" maintains that they are not really to blame, but that the restoration corporation employed to clean the workshop failed to clean-up some black "sooty" markings.

Santa is still believed to be on the run, and there is no evidence to suggest he is involved with the new management at the workshop.

ABOMINABLE TREATMENT OF ELVES
Various Elf unions are in an uproar this week after it became known that a large beast prowling the north pole has killed and eaten several Elves working in the area.

BEAR DEVOURS WORKFORCE
Horrifying reports indicate that the entire workforce at a logging camp in the arctic circle were devoured by polar bears earlier this week.

The camp leader, an Elf, was apparently the first to be eaten, followed by his staff, many of which were Elves too.

Scientists believe the polar bears had gained a taste for Elf after consuming body parts left by careless janitors at another workshop 20 miles away, however ludicrous that sounds.

REINDEER BURGER SCANDAL
Increasing reports of vomitting are still coming in since tuesday when a local "Abominable Burger" opened its doors.

After it was revealed by a local hunter that he tasted Reindeer in the burger, patrons began to vomit uncontrollably.

Despite this increase in meat quality, customers are prosecuting the fast-food chain and attempting to trace the meat to its supplier.

REINDEER JERKY CLOSES AIRPORT
An entire airport in Argentina was closed on thursday after a package from the north pole came through customs.

The package reportedly contained what at first seemed like jerky, but turned out to be deeply rotted Reindeer meat, thus leading to the closure of the airport until proper containment could be ensured.

The Argentinian government are demanding answers from the sender; a workshop in the north pole.

SOUS CHEF JAILED FOR NEGLIGENCE
A famous sous chef at a Canadian hotel has been arrested on suspicion of negligence after several patrons reportedly took ill from eating the popular veal dish served at the restaurant.

The chef's lawyer claims that his client is innocent and that his filleting knife (a recent purchase) is to blame.

The knife, obtained from a mail order with "Santa's Workshop" could very well have been one of the murder weapons used during the workshop's recent "incident".

Authorties are investigating the possibility.

Not a few hours before the biggest show in the arctic circle was to be opened to the public, Snuffle Knifefinger, the famous Elf knife juggler was found dead in his tent.

Fellow entertainers say they had never seen the knife before and that he would never use such a knife for his act, it's too big.

Police suggest he may simply have been curious, and attempted to juggle it anyway.

The Elf community is in an uproar over the police once again simply dismissing the death of an Elf without even bothering to investigate.

YET MORE ELVES DIE
After the recently restored "Santa's Workshop" returned to work on monday, the new Elven employees have started dying again.


Reports indicate the Elves have all died as a result of sharp glass pieces that were not cleared from the worksite by the sanitation crew employed the previous week.

Naturally, their corporation is being sued for damages by various Elf unions.

EGGNOG KILLS
The Society for the Prevention of Clubbed Albatross have accused a cleanup crew employed to work on a workshop in the north pole of "polluting the north sea with the most rotten "Chuck Hurlington's Eggnog" known to man."

Several species of seals and albatross are in danger of being wiped out by the toxic pollutant. As yet, little can be done to remove the thick and slimy layer that coats the ocean.
As a result, "Chuck Hurlington's" have since added a warning label to their product:

"May react unfavorably with salt water."

Authorities are bringing a law suit against the disreputable workshop who sent alchohol to the child.

Alby is yet to be adopted...

DISPOSAL BIN SINKS SHIP
In what can only be described as a disaster, it has come to the attention of authorities that the recently sunk "RMS Gigantic" cruise ship was the result of an unnatural iceberg.

The iceberg reportedly formed around a disposal bin left floating in the north sea.

The disposal bin's serial number has led authorities to the culprits; a sanitiation company likely employed to work a job in the north pole.

The structural design of the "RMS Gigantic" is presently being questioned.

ELF ASSASSIN MURDERS ACTIVIST
The unscrupulous actions of "Little Finger" are well known. A deadly and elusive assassin who has no problem throwing his Elf brethren to the wolves, always leaving a calling card for the authorities has done it again.

Early Monday, "Little Finger" killed the famous leader of the "Activists for Respected and Safe Elves" organization.

Authorities are blaming a sanitation company for the disposal bin "Little Finger" used to remain undetected in the crowd prior to the assassination.

EndMsg-Santa-Avalanche-0
The Polar Times
======================
BUCKET CAUSES AVALANCHE
Scientists studying the avalanche that covered a town in the arctic circle last week have come to some startling conclusions.

Apparently a simple bucket left in the snow was the cause.

Due to the build up of snow drift around the bucket on an otherwise clear cliffside, the entire area eventually gave way.

Authorities are pursuing legal action against the sanitation group recently employeed to work in the artic circle.

It remains to be seen if anything comes of it.

NARWHAL ALPHA DIES
The famous Narwhal "Nelly" was recently discovered dead in the arctic circle.

Conerns over the outcome of the rest of his pod are high, as "Nelly" has been the Alpha male for over 50 years.
However, his death was not natural...

Strong evidence suggests a sanitation company are responsible, given the presence of a bucket stuck to "Nelly's" elongated canine or "horn". Authorities are at present trying to prosecute those responsible.

ELF A MENTAL CASE; SAYS DOCTOR
The old "Cloudy Peaks" asylum has recieved a strange new patient: "Blinky Bellfeet".

The Elf was admitted after reportedly "freaking out" at his new job working in "Santa's Workshop".

His small colleagues suggest he lost it after drinking from a shotgun casing he momentarily mistook for a drinking glass.

They say he went "odd" after he was told the dark story behind the workshop's recent and tragic history; we all remember it well...

COMET DIES AFTER EATING SHELL CASING
Truly tragic news this week. It has become known that Comet, the last remaining Reindeer of Santa's herd has died.

It's well known that Santa killed all his other reindeer last week, along with all his staff. Comet was lucky enough to escape and has been carefully nursed since then.

However, on saturday he consumed a shell casing delivered to the farm from the restored "Santa's Workshop".

Suspicions abound, but it remains to be seen who will be punished for this tragedy.

KKK HEADQUARTERS RAIDED


Authorities surrounded an alpine cabin this week, after finding definitive proof that the cabin was the long believed headquarters of the Klu Klux Klause, the mysterious group that seem to have ties to countless criminal activities.

The FBI say they found proof in the form of a KKK video in which a one-of-a-kind "La Baguette" bottle was spotted.
The bottle, believed to have been incorrectly shipped from a recently sanitized workshop has angered the KKK greatly.

The leader has stated he will have his revenge.

After the recent terrorist attack on a reindeer farm, the FBI have revealed that the explosive device is believed to have been obtained from the recently restored 'Santa's Workshop".

It is believed that the stick of dynamite was procured with the help of an inside man.

The sanitation company who restored the workshop claim the stick was left on the scene by an employee, and that they might also be a terrorist.

Authorities have not yet rules out Santa as the prime suspect, given the dangerous fugitive's MO.

Tragic news this week after the body of an Elf was discovered trapped under a piece of rubble.

Believed to have been crushed when the rubble fell off a table, the Elf in question would have suffered for hours before succuming.
