<p>The Somerset County Jail in Skowhegan, ME is currently on sale for a paltry $200,000. After a new 200-bed lockup opens in nearby Madison, the town will have little use for the old, 14,000-square foot facility.</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t let the fact that it&#8217;s an old jail turn your business away, say local real estate agents and county commissioners. The property could be used for an art gallery, a restaurant, gift shop, or even a bus station.</p>
<p>If your Finance department&#8217;s into tight security, there&#8217;s nary a safer place to be &#8212; even if a criminal were to make off with sensitive records, they&#8217;d never be able to clear the razor-wire fencing. (Yes, it&#8217;s still up.)</p>
<p>Are your employees into benefits? The facility comes with an atmospheric exercise area. And instead of cubicles, people can stretch out in their very own &#8220;private offices.&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There&#8217;s nothing wrong with being an armchair quarterback when out on worker&#8217;s comp. But acting as a ref could be a problem. <span id="more-122"></span></p>
<p>Keith McNiffe, former mayor of Pembroke in western Wales, claimed state disability benefits for two years because he was &quot;too ill to walk.&quot;</p>
<p>Apparently, he wasn&#8217;t &quot;too ill to run around in a striped shirt,&quot; because he officiated at 67 football games during that time.</p>
<p>The 49-year-old stepped down as mayor to fight the accusations. He soon admitted to not notifying the proper authorities of his improved health.</p>
<p>McNiffe collected nearly $18K over the two years, which he has to pay back. But that&#8217;s not the only punishment he&#8217;s getting. He&#8217;s been sentenced to a four-month stint in jail, suspended for 18 months and he has to pay almost $150.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s the kicker (pun intended) &#8212; along with all that he has to complete 200 hours of unpaid work and gets to sport a criminal record.</p>
