A womens hair thread...

What could this lend to the uncut-vs-cut issuse? Better stated the shorn-vs-shaven issue?

This is taken from MSNBC.com

THE HAGUE, Netherlands - Former Bosnian Serb leader Radovan Karadzic appeared at the U.N.'s Yugoslav war crimes tribunal for the first time Thursday, telling the judge he would defend himself against charges of genocide and crimes against humanity.

Shorn of the long white hair and bushy beard that disguised him as a new age guru during at least part of his 13 years as a fugitive, Karadzic wore a dark suit and tie for the hearing to enter pleas in the 11 counts against him.


If you were to look at a photo of the man he is now bald!

What conclusions could you draw from the uses of the term shorn in this sense?
