Urine Spray Man gets Nine Years
A Chemist who contaminated food and wine in Gloucestershire supermarkets with his own urine and faeces has been sent to prison for nine years. Sahnoun Daifallah, 42, of Bibury Road, Gloucester, was found guilty of four counts of contaminating goods at four businesses in May 2008. The court heard shoppers and staff in both stores saw Daifallah with a black laptop computer with a vapour coming from the bag being sprayed on the shelves. The cost of damaged products and lost business due to resulting store closures was estimated at £700,000. When police searched his house they found stockpiles of the mixture and plans to spread it in other cities including Bristol and Birmingham. Daifallah, who had fantasies about biological weapons to cause public alarm, was also found guilty of having an offensive weapon, namely a catapult with marbles.
Mixture TASTY.
Sewing machine frenzy in red mercury hoax
Saudi police are investigating the origins of a hoax that had hundreds of people believing that old sewing machines may bring fortune because they contained an elusive, and probably mythical, substance known as red mercury. The English-language Saudi Gazette newspaper said some buyers were willing to pay up to 200,000 riyals ($50,000) for an old Singer sewing machine proven to contain red mercury. Mobile phones are supposedly employed as instruments to prove the existence of the phony substance. Popular belief in the Middle East has it that it can help uncover hidden gold treasures, though there are other theories which say it can be used to create a nuclear bomb. "If the line cuts off when the telephone is placed close to the needle ... that proves the existence of the substance," Saudi Gazette said.
Hg LOL! Maybe it's cause I'm a Chemist, but this is hilarious to me.
Police say photo-swapping teacher, student did not see each other outside school
Azalea Middle School teacher Christy Lynn Martin and an eighth-grade boy called each other "husband" and "wife," kissed each other and apparently sent each other cell phone photos of their private parts, according to police. But they did not have sex and did not see each other outside of school, according to information contained in a search warrant. Martin, 32, was arrested last month on charges of transmitting pornographic images through an electronic device and transmitting material harmful to a minor.
Photo I will never understand humans. And I sure am glad.
