Wow very nice view-Supermoon visible Saturday night
A "supermoon" will be visible Saturday night, and will look 14% larger than usual.
At , the moon will officially be full. At , the moon will be at what astronomers call perigree — just 356,955 km from Earth.
But while the supermoon is making headlines worldwide, researchers at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ont., say the nickname makes it sound like a bigger deal than it is.
Will people know it's a supermoon on Saturday? Only if they've read about it, McMaster astronomer Robert Cockcroft said in a release Friday. A supermoon happens once a year, and Cockcroft said the moon changes its proximity to Earth over the course of the year, so at times it will appear closer and larger than at other times.
Bad-Teacher charged after dry ice dare
An Australian teacher has been charged after allegedly daring his high school students to hold dry ice in their hands. A number of the students took the 49-year-old teacher up on his dare on Feb. 29, and suffered serious burns as a result, police said. Parents of one of the students called police.
The teacher is charged with causing grievous bodily harm by a negligent act and assaulting a school student causing bodily harm. Dry ice is a solid form of carbon dioxide and often used to keep things cool. Because it is extremely cold, it can cause burns by frostbite within seconds.
The school is located in Terrigal, 85 km north of Sydney .
Surprise-Woman Discovered Cocaine Hidden Inside Tampons Purchased
A woman who purchased a box of tampons Sunday at a Utah store returned home to find that the feminine care products were filled with cocaine, police report. The discovery by shopper Cindy Davidson has prompted an investigation by Salt Lake City cops, who suspect that the stuffed tampons were part of a drug smuggling scheme that somehow went off the rails.
Davidson purchased the tampons at the NPS Store, which describes itself as a salvage and freight Recovery Company that sells its products in two stores in Salt Lake City .” The cut-rate retailer sells a variety of merchandise that it obtains from misdirected or damaged freight. Davidson, who had gone to the store to purchase Crest Whitestrips, bought the Boots brand tampons “bcuz they were cheap,” according to a posting on her Facebook page. Davidson, a 39-year-old mother of two, added that she had never heard of Boots, which are produced by a British-based health and beauty conglomerate.
What happen-Bar Broke anti-arousal bylaw?
BARRIE, ONT. - Businessman Mark Porter and his club have been charged $10,000 under the Municipal Bylaw Act for arousing the women of Barrie, Ont.
Last May, Porter, who owns the Mansion Nightclub, hosted a ladies' night event at his club. Now, he's due in court on Friday to refute the two $5,000 fines for having Chippendale-style male dancers perform a two-hour set for about 150 patrons. If they had been naked, I would have left, said Geraldine, a 73-year-old grandmother of seven who asked her last name not be used. She attended the event with her 74 year-old sister Jackie, her daughter and a few friends last spring.
No, I didn’t think it was rude,” Geraldine said. People seemed to be enjoying themselves. I paid a little extra for one of them to dance in front of my sister; she was so embarrassed. We laughed. We’d never done anything like that before. It was a hoot. It may well be one of the last events of its kind in Barrie , unless bar owners want to pay $4,000 for a per-event adult entertainment license.
The adult entertainment Class B license means any premises or part thereof in which entertainment is offered which is designed to arouse or result in an erotic or sexual response or sensation from any person viewing, observing, or otherwise being subjected or exposed to the entertainment,” said Brenda Russell, manager of municipal law enforcement and prosecution.
Porter said he held the event in conjunction with Yuk Yuks comedy club on the night of last year’s federal election, and only pulled in about $1,000 for the entire night’s taking. My wife and mother-in-law went,” laughed Porter. “It wasn’t over the top or anything. While Russell can’t comment on the particular court case, she said she believes the intent of the municipal act is clear.
If an act is designed to arouse or the result is arousal, than it’s adult entertainment, Russell said.
But arousing or not, the bylaw doesn't apply to theatre. For example, Equus, in which Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe appears nude, or Take Me Out, a play about a gay baseball player that has a naked shower scene, wouldn’t require special licensing.
