Weird and Extreme / Honolulu Seeking To Ban 'BO' On Buses
September 03, 2009, 03:39:58 AM
Wed Sep 2, 7:58 am ET
HONOLULU â€" Stinky city bus riders soon could get soaked. The Honolulu City Council is considering a bill that would impose up to a $500 fine and/or up to six months in jail for public transit passengers convicted of being too smelly.

The bill will be heard Thursday in committee. It would make it illegal to have "odors that unreasonably disturb others or interfere with their use of the transit system."

It doesn't matter if it's body odor or offensive fumes that emanates from clothes, personal belongings or animals.

Councilmen Rod Tam and Nestor Garcia co-sponsored the anti-odor bill.

The American Civil Liberties Union of Hawaii says it is concerned with laws that are inherently vague, which opens the door to discriminatory enforcement based on an officer's individual prejudices.

SHARPES, Fla. â€" A former inmate in Florida was injured while trying to sneak back into jail. Sylvester Jiles suffered severe cuts from barbed wire while trying to climb a 12-foot fence at the Brevard County Detention Center Monday night. The 24-year-old former inmate was released last week from the jail after accepting a plea deal on a manslaughter charge.

He showed up at the jail Monday night and asked to be taken back into custody because he feared family members of his victim would retaliate against him. Jail officials said they couldn't take him in and told him to file a police report.

Instead, he tried to climb over the barbed-wire fence and fell in his attempt.

He remained hospitalized for his injuries Tuesday.

"Business leaders are also likely to be wary of Sen. Aquino, analysts suggest. Sen. Roxas, the candidate he is replacing on the Liberal Party ticket, was many investors' favorite and a former investment banker."

CANTON, Ohio â€" An Ohio judge unhappy with repeated interruptions from a robbery suspect ordered a deputy to put duct tape over the defendant's mouth. Canton Municipal Court Judge Stephen Belden says the taping last Thursday was the best way to restore order at a hearing for 51-year-old Harry Brown of Canton.

Brown complained that his court-appointed attorney wasn't prepared and angered the judge with interruptions. After a warning, the judge told the bailiff to tape Brown's mouth shut.

When the tape was removed, the defendant said the judge wasn't being respectful. The judge ended the hearing and sent the case to a grand jury.

LOS ANGELES, California, United Statesâ€"A deadly wildfire roared out of control above Los Angeles on Monday, killing two firefighters, forcing thousands to flee and threatening a crucial telecommunications facility.

The monster blaze raging in mountains north of the densely populated metropolis had ripped through 105,296 acres (42,612 hectares) of tinder-dry forest and was spreading north, northeast, east, and northwest, authorities said.

An army of more than 3,655 firefighters was battling the blaze in the Angeles National Forest, which remained only five percent contained and sent a giant white mushroom cloud of smoke across the city.

The inferno was lapping Mount Wilson, threatening communications antennas belonging to numerous television and radio stations, cell phone providers, and law enforcement agencies.

A squadron of aircraft, including eight air tankers and 13 helicopters, has been deployed to help bombard the blaze, although vast plumes of smoke were hampering the aerial attack, officials said.

As the fire showed no sign of easing, authorities revised an initial containment estimate of September 8, saying the blaze was now unlikely to be brought under control before September 15.

So far, more than 10,000 people have been evacuated from the fire, which has left two people dead and injured four others, including two people who attempted to ride out the blaze in an outdoor jacuzzi.

At least 53 structuresâ€"homes and cabins alikeâ€"have been destroyed, although that number was expected to grow, the Los Angeles Times reported. The fire broke out on August 26 and the cause remains under investigation.

The two fatalities were firefighters who died south of the town of Acton on Sunday when their vehicle veered off the road and rolled down a mountainside.

The fire was only one of several destructive blazes raging across California.

Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger toured the scene of a fire in Placer County, northeast of Sacramento that had charred 275 acres (110 hectares) of forest and gutted some 50 homes across the region.

Schwarzenegger urged any residents who received an evacuation order to flee immediately. "I think the key thing is when you hear from law enforcement, anything about evacuation, follow their orders," Schwarzenegger said.

His warning came as officials revealed they were trying to reach five people who ignored an evacuation order in the Los Angeles wildfire.

Los Angeles County Fire Captain Mark Savage told CNN no firefighters would be risked if conditions surrounding the trapped people were too dangerous.

"Our firefighters are watching very closely," Savage said. "If the situation becomes where we can get in there and get them out we will but we certainly won't be endangering firefighters to make a rescue attempt at this point."

Later Monday, one of the five people reportedly trapped denied requesting assistance and said the group was not in danger.

"It's been like this for four days, and if we were in immediate danger, we would get out immediately," Mark Underwood said.

The San Gabriel Valley east of Los Angeles has experienced record heat and low humidity, with temperatures soaring above 100 degrees Fahrenheit (38 degrees Celsius) in the hottest locations.

A key factor in the fires' spread is that the areas most at risk are covered with vegetation that has not experienced fire for several decades, making it more susceptible to the blaze.

California is frequently hit by scorching wildfires due to its dry climate, winds, and recent housing booms that have seen home construction spread rapidly into rural and densely forested areas.

In 2007, the state suffered some of the worst devastation from wildfires in its history that left eight people dead, gutted 2,000 homes, displaced 640,000 people, and caused a billion dollars of damage.

LGU Philippines / Mar Roxas gives way to Noy Aquino
September 02, 2009, 02:13:45 AM
Cory’s son vows ‘to carry the torch of leadership’

By Michael Lim Ubac
Philippine Daily Inquirer
First Posted 01:33:00 09/02/2009

Filed Under: Benigno Aquino III, Mar Roxas, Inquirer Politics, Elections, Eleksyon 2010, Cory Aquino


MANILA, Philippinesâ€"It didn’t take long for the opposition Liberal Party to decide on its standard-bearer a month after the death of former President Corazon Aquino.

In talks over the weekend, the late President’s only son, Sen. Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino III, told Sen. Manuel “Mar” Roxas II, the party president, that he wanted to run for the country’s highest post.

On Tuesday, in a packed news conference at Club Filipino before party stalwarts, Roxas announced he was giving way to Noynoy’s candidacy for president in the May elections.

“Noy has made it clear to me that he wants to carry the torch of leadership. The parting of our beloved President Cory has reawakened a passion among us,” Roxas said, reading from a prepared statement.

“I see this as fuel to bring us to the realization of our dreams: Good will win over evil,” said Roxas, who as early as April had mounted a spirited campaign for the presidency by launching a series of “infomercials.”

“Noynoy and I want to make a difference, but we also know that we need to unite to achieve what we want,” he said.

The 49-year-old Aquino was present at the clubhouse where his mother, widow of assassinated opposition leader Benigno Aquino Jr., was sworn in as president after the Edsa People Power Revolution of February 1986 that ousted the dictator Ferdinand Marcos.

“Give this day to Mar,” Aquino told reporters seeking his comment. Noynoy is scheduled to appear at a news conference Wednesday, where he is expected to make his first public comment on Roxas’ decision to withdraw.

Roxas likewise declined to answer reporters’ questions, but it was expected that he will be Noynoy’s candidate for vice president.

KEO is the name of a proposed space time capsule that will be launched in 2010 or 2011. There have been previous spacecrafts carrying time capsules of earth’s existence sent into space but what makes the KEO Satellite different is it will be designed to return back to earth 50,000 years later. The KEO project was conceived in 1994 by French artist-scientist Jean-Marc Philippe. If this ambitious project is realized the KEO will carry a drop of human blood chosen at random encased in a diamond, samples of air, sea water and earth and the DNA of the human genome. The satellite will also carry an astronomical clock, photographs of people of all cultures and an encyclopedia of current human knowledge.

Interesting Fact: The Satellites name is supposed to represent the three most frequently used sounds common to the most widely spoken languages today, K, E and O. Also, every person is invited to write a message addressed to the future inhabitants.

The deadline is December 31, 2009. Messages can be posted here.

August 28, 2009, 08:49:08 AM
Death is a part of every person’s life; in this article we explore ten of the strangest deaths that have occurred in recorded history.


1. Francis Bacon (22 January 1561 â€" 9 April 1626) [Britannica]

Manner of death: Stuffing snow into a chicken

Francis Bacon; statesman, philosopher, creator of the English essay, and advocate for the scientific revolution (he established “The Scientific Method” still used today), was one of very few people to die as a result of one of their own experiments.

In 1625, whilst gazing out the window at a snowy afternoon, Sir Francis Bacon had an epiphany of sorts. Why would snow not work as preservative of meat in much the same way salt is used? Needing to know and unheeding of the weather, Bacon rushed to town to purchase a chicken, brought it home and began the experiment. Standing outside in the snow, he killed the chicken and tried to stuff it with snow. The experiment was a failure; the chicken didn’t freeze, and as a consequence of standing around in the freezing weather, Bacon developed a terminal case of pneumonia. Trying to stave off the inevitable, Bacon roasted and ate the chicken. That too was a failed experiment. He died.



2. Horace Wells (January 21, 1815 â€" January 24, 1848) [Britannica]

Manner of death: Used anesthetics to commit suicide

An American dentist, born in Vermont and educated in Boston, Horace Wells was one of the pioneers in the field of anesthesia. Weary of screaming patients, (it was known to upset him terribly, he often debated leaving the field of dentistry altogether), he was one of the first practitioners to see the value of nitrous oxide or laughing gas as an anesthetic.

After a failed experiment and falling out of favor with the medical community, Wells became a traveling anesthetic salesman and European expert for his former partner, Gardner Quincy Colton. His ‘investigations’ led to a chloroform addiction that would be his down-fall. In 1848, delirious and deranged after a week of self-experimentation, Wells ran into the street and assaulted two prostitutes with sulfuric acid. He was arrested and confined at New York’s infamous Tombs Prison. Recovering from the drug induced psychosis; the true horror of his actions came home to roost. Unable to live with this shame, Wells committed suicide by first inhaling a substantial dose of chloroform and then slitting his femoral artery.



3. Tycho Brahe (December 14, 1546 â€" October 24, 1601) [Britannica]

Manner of death: Didn’t get to the toilet in time

Famous as an alchemist and astronomer, Brahe’s pioneering observations of planetary motion paved the way for Sir Isaac Newton to develop the theory of gravity.

Unfortunately brilliance and common sense do not always go hand in hand, the manner of his death being the case in point. Known to have a weak bladder and knowing that it was very bad form to leave the banquet table before the festivities concluded, Brahe still neglected to relieve himself before dinner. To compound matters, he was known to drink excessively, and this particular banquet was no exception. Too polite to ask to be excused, his bladder strained causing a protracted (11 day), agonizing death. Whether he died of a burst bladder or hyponatremia (low levels of sodium in the blood) or mercury poisoning is now debated.

Note: this is very similar to an event in which a lady died recently in a competition entitled “Hold Your Wee for a Wii”. She died of hyponatremia.



4. Attila the Hun (406 â€" 453) [Britannica]

Manner of death: He got a nosebleed on his wedding night

History’s most brilliant tactician, warlord, and notorious villain, Attila the Hun conquered all of Asia by 450 AD. Using a combination of fierce combat and ruthless assimilation, Mongolia to the very edge of the Russian Empire fell to Attila and his armies.

Known for his frugal eating and drinking habits, Attila must have thought that his own wedding was an occasion to celebrate. Marrying a young girl named Ildico, in 453 AD; he over-indulged in both food and drink. Sometime after retiring for the evening, his nose started to bleed. Too drunk to notice, it continued to bleed, ultimately drowning him in his own blood.



5. Aeschylus [Î'ἰσχύλοÏ,] (525 BC/524 BC â€" 456 BC) [Britannica]

Manner of death: An eagle dropped a tortoise on his head

Considered the founder of tragedy, Aeschylus is the first of the three ancient Greek playwrights whose work still survives. He expanded the characters of a play so that there was conflict between them instead of actors solely interacting with the chorus. Sophocles and Euripides famously followed in his footsteps.

While visiting Gela on the island of Sicily, legend has it that an eagle, mistaking Aeschylus’ bald pate for a stone, dropped a tortoise on his head killing him. Some accounts differ, stating that a stone was dropped on his head, the eagle mistaking his shining crown for an egg. This is not as far-fetched as it seems. The Lammergeier or Bearded Vulture is native to the Mediterranean, and is known to drop bones and tortoises on rocks to break them open.



6. King Adolf Frederick of Sweden (May 14, 1710 â€" February 12, 1771) [Britannica]

Manner of death: Eating too much pudding

Adolph’s Frederick was the titular King of Sweden from 1751 â€" 1771. The omnipotent Riksdag or senate held the reins of power despite Adolphus’ best efforts to wrest it from them.

Another victim of personal excess, Adophus Frederick is known by Swedish children as “the king who ate himself to death”. On February 12, 1771, after partaking of a banquet consisting of lobster, caviar, sauerkraut, smoked herring and champagne he moved on to his favorite dessert, Semla, a traditional bun or pastry made from semolina/wheat flour, served in a bowl of hot milk. One or two portions would have been sufficient; 14 servings was excessive. He died shortly thereafter of digestion problems.



7. Grigori Rasputin [Ð"риго́рий ЕÑ,,и́мович Распу́Ñ,ин] (January 22, 1869 â€" December 29, 1916) [Britannica]

Manner of death: Drowning after being poisoned, shot, stabbed, and bludgeoned

The Mad Monk, Grigori Rasputin, was a peasant and mystic healer who found favor with the royal court of Russia by providing relief to Crown Prince Aleksey, a hemophiliac and heir to the throne.

Wielding much influence on the royal court, the unkempt, vulgar, and amazingly resilient Rasputin made many political enemies. He had to go; much easier said than done. The conspirators first tried poison, enough poison to kill a man three times his size, but he seemed unaffected. Next they snuck up behind him and shot him in the head. This should have done it, but no; while one of the assassins was checking his pulse, the mystic grabbed the conspirator by the neck and proceeded to strangle him. Running away, the would-be assassins took up the chase, shooting him 3 times in the process. The gunshots slowed him down enough to allow his pursuers to catch-up. They then proceeded to bludgeon him before throwing him in the icy cold river (Russian winter). When his body was recovered an autopsy showed that the cause of death was drowning.



8. Isadora Duncan (May 27, 1877 â€" September 14, 1927) [Britannica]

Manner of death: Strangulation and a broken neck

Isadora Duncan is widely considered as the mother of Modern Dance. Born in San Francisco, California, Dora Angela Duncan was the product of divorced parents; her father a disgraced banker and her mother and pianist and music teacher. Her free form style was never very popular in her home country, but she found great success after immigrating to Paris. She founded three schools of dance and her likeness is carved over the entrance to the Théâtre des Champs-Élysées.

Isadora Duncan died of a broken neck and accidental strangulation when her scarf caught on the wheel of a car she was traveling in. The New York Times, succinctly and brutally described it thusly:

“The automobile was going at full speed when the scarf of strong silk began winding around the wheel and with terrific force dragged Miss Duncan, around whom it was securely wrapped, bodily over the side of the car, precipitating her with violence against the cobblestone street. She was dragged for several yards before the chauffeur halted, attracted by her cries in the street. Medical aid was summoned, but it was stated that she had been strangled and killed instantly.”


9. Christine Chubbuck (August 24, 1944 â€" July 15, 1974) [Wikipedia]

Manner of death: Suicide on live TV

Christine Chubbuck was the host of “Suncoast Digest” a well regarded public affairs program on WXLT-TV in Sarasota, Florida. Breaking format, her guest was waiting across the studio at the news anchor’s desk; Christine read eight minutes of national news stories before the tape reel malfunctioned while describing a shooting at the Beef and Bottle restaurant. Seemingly unfazed by the technical glitch, Christine looked into the camera and said:

“In keeping with Channel 40’s policy of bringing you the latest in blood and guts, and in living color, you are going to see another first: an attempted suicide.”

Taking a revolver out from under her desk, she placed it behind her left ear and pulled the trigger (she learned this was the most effective way to commit suicide from the police while researching a project for her show). She tumbled violently forward as the technical director slowly faded to black. Some viewers called 911 while others called the station to see if it was real. Camerawoman Jean Reed later stated that she didn’t believe it to be genuine until she saw Christine’s body twitching on the floor.


10. Sharon Lopatka (September 20, 1961 â€" October 16, 1996) [Wikipedia]

Manner of death: Volunteered to be tortured and murdered

Sharon Lopatka was an internet entrepreneur and one sick puppy. Living in Hampstead, Maryland, USA, Sharon was killed by Robert Frederick Glass in a case of consensual homicide.

While advertising unusual fetishist pornography on her web site, Sharon began her hunt for a partner willing to torture and kill her for their mutual sexual gratification. After many false starts, of course most replies were not serious, she finally found Robert Glass; more than willing to fulfill her fantasy. They exchanged many messages, culminating in their meeting in North Carolina. Glass tortured her for several days before strangling her with a nylon cord. He was later convicted of voluntary manslaughter and possession of child pornography.

Maybe . . . you should try to live
your life to the fullest because when
you were born, you were crying and
everyone around you was smiling but
when you die, you can be the one who
is smiling and everyone around you
crying.

LIFE   Live it. Love it. Play it.
