You now have company with this eighth grader from San Antonio, TX.
Collin, an eighth-grader at Legacy Middle School, spent a day washing and handling artifacts at the University of Texas at San Antonio’s Center for Archaeological Research and became so taken with an old, corked bottle found at the River Walk extension project that he went home, did some research and came back with a theory: The yellow liquid sloshing inside was likely century-old beer, brewed by a predecessor to the Lone Star Brewing Co.
His discovery so delighted archaeologist Lynn Yakubik and her colleagues that they agreed to test the liquid to see if Collin’s theory bears fruit. Or hops.
“That’s San Antonio past right there in your hand,” said Yakubik, director of the center’s education and outreach programs. “He was so excited about what he had done that day, he went above and beyond, looked it up for us and sent us an e-mail. He is such a cool kid.”

You are out of luck.
And here is the news report:
“And he (the security guard) goes ‘there’s a lady whose son says he saw you guys making out, and I did, too. And you have to stop.’ And I said ‘well, we weren’t making out, but we were kissing and I’m not going to stop,’” said Guerrero…
“(The security guard said) the mom doesn’t want to explain to the kids why two girls are kissing. So I said ‘well, I’m not going to stop, so you’ll have to kick me out. So he said ’so I suggest you leave then,”‘ she said.
Sigh. I thought the Mariners would be happy just to have any warm bodies in the seats, given how bad the team is.

Huh?
“She invited him up for a little midnight snack,” Towe Hägg of the Stockholm police told The Local.
Once getting the man up to her place, the woman began to make sexual advances toward the man, which he resisted.
“We don’t know if it was a ‘no’ or if it was more than a ‘no’,” said Hägg.
After the man refused to have sex with the woman, she then performed oral sex on him against his will, according to the Aftonbladet newspaper.
Dude, you’re doing it wrong.

Rest assured. No problems at all.
The company that runs the plant, OKG, has said it plans to remedy the situation in October.
Despite the fact that other plants such as Ringhals and Forsmark carry out checks on everybody passing through the gates, OKG has secured a dispensation allowing it to delay security improvement by a few more months.
“But from October 1st everyone who enters OKG will be checked,” said Anders Österberg, a spokesman for the company.
Two welders were arrested last Wednesday after a routine security control at the entrance to the plant detected traces of highly explosive material on the handle of a plastic bag one of the men was carrying.

A few weeks ago, I brought up the story about a guy in Germany of Afghan origin who killed his sister to preserve the “Family Honor”.
Well, it turns out this guy had a few other activities going at the same time.
“We are looking into other suspicions of rape in another incident,” said a spokesperson for the public prosecutor’s office in response to media reports.
German daily Die Welt reported Thursday that the man had met a young Afghan woman online, who he drugged and raped with an accomplice in Hamburg. He allegedly gloated about the incident online.
The man admitted to police that he killed his sister last week because she had turned away from her family, DDP reported. The family immigrated to Germany from Afghanistan 13 years ago, German news magazine Der Spiegel reported in its online edition. Both siblings have German citizenship.
The girl died early on Friday morning of multiple stab wounds in Hamburg’s Sankt Georg district.
The man had already been prosecuted for assaulting his sister and others. He was sentenced in March on an assault charge to one year and five months without possibility of probation, the Hamburg prosecutor’s office told German press agency DDP on Monday.

Today is your lucky day.
The hippo has repeatedly swum in the breaking waves but was finally captured on film by a local photographer near the east coast holiday town of Ballito yesterday.
The creature, which can weigh almost two tons, paddled in the white water and swam as the force carried him forwards.
The hippo, thought to be an adult male, has been moving south since March but is now approaching the outskirts of Durban.
