Bad-Man sues restaurant, alleges earwig in food

A man from suburban Quebec City is suing a restaurant for $6,000 after he says he nearly crunched down on an earwig that was crawling in his salad.

Alexandre Roy-Langlois said he was about to eat his salad at the chain restaurant St-Hubert Rotisserie in November when he realized he was sharing his meal with the small parasitic pest.

He filed a lawsuit for "moral damages," claiming he became "sick to the stomach" at the sight of the earwig. Roy-Langlois also claims that he has been unable to eat salads in restaurants since the alleged encounter. "I'm very careful about what I eat," reads his lawsuit, filed Tuesday at the Quebec City courthouse. 

 

Idea-Phony gas leak reported to bust suspected cheater

A Pennsylvania man faces charges after he reported a phony gas leak at his girlfriend's apartment, apparently in an effort to reveal the other man he believed she was hiding inside, police say.

The 36-year-old Dawson, Pa., man was charged Sunday with false alarms to a public safety agency and false identification to police, the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reported.

Officers responded to the gas leak call Saturday afternoon. According to the newspaper, police said a woman in the apartment told officers she didn't report a leak but that her boyfriend had recently stopped by her residence and attempted to get inside. When she wouldn't let him in, he tried to enter by force and told her would call the gas company, police told the paper.

At the adjoining residence, police asked a man if there was a gas leak. The man first gave a false identity before admitting there was no gas leak, police told the Tribune-Review. Police said he told officers he called in the false gas leak because he believed his girlfriend had another man in the apartment. 

How- Man accused of using fake Jack Nicholson ID

Brazilian police say a suspected fraudster is accused of using a fake ID with a photo of Jack Nicholson. Ricardo Sergio Freire de Barros, 41, more than 30 years younger than the Oscar-winning actor, was arrested Tuesday in the city of Recife after police tracked him for three months as part of a fraud investigation, CNN reports. Police Chief Erivaldo Guerra said the suspect allegedly used fake IDs to open and default on high-limit bank accounts and credit cards.

The fake ID has a straight-faced picture of the 74-year-old American actor with the name Joao Pedro dos Santos, police said. Nicholson, 74, is a two-time Academy Award winner for One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest and As Good as It Gets. Barros is charged with the use of false documents and falsification of a public document.

How-DUI driver with sex toy in tush rear-ends other driver

A driver with a "sexual anus plug in his rectum" was jailed after investigators say he rear-ended another driver and had more than five times the legal limit of alcohol in his blood, according to a recently released arrest affidavit. What could be called the case of the soused driver with the sex toy in his hindquarters happened about 11:20 a.m. Feb. 24 as Martin County Sheriff's investigators went to a two-vehicle crash at U.S. 1 and

Seabranch Boulevard

in Hobe Sound.

A deputy determined Kevin Brann, 41, had rear-ended another vehicle. Officials also determined Brann smelled strongly of alcohol. Brann's speech was slurred and mumbled, his eyes bloodshot and glassy. A deputy gave Brann, who'd urinated in his pants, field sobriety exercises before arresting him on a DUI with property damage charge. Brann "soiled himself" en route to the slammer."The defendant had a sexual anus plug in his rectum, which he removed, or it fell out in the rear of my patrol car," an affidavit states.The length, girth and color of the "sexual anus plug in his rectum" was not listed in the affidavit. Also not specified was the make and model of the plug and an explanation of how it ended up in his bottom.At the jail, investigators measured Brann's blood alcohol content at 0.409 and 0.412 -- more than five times the legal limit of 0.08.

Brann, of the 6800 block of  Southeast Bunker Hill Drive
in Hobe Sound, was arrested on a DUI with property damage charge.

How-Man Drinks Gasoline From Jar, Dies After Lighting Cigarette

North Carolina man died after he accidentally drank from a jar of gasoline then smoked a cigarette, police said. Havelock police received a 911 call about 9:55 p.m. Monday after 43-year-old Gary Allen Banning set himself on fire. Banning was transported to UNC Burn Center in Chapel Hill, where he died early Tuesday morning. City spokeswoman Diane Miller said investigators believe Banning was at a friend's apartment when he apparently mistook a jar of gasoline sitting by the kitchen sink for a beverage. After taking a gulp, he spit the gas out and got some on his clothes. Sometime later, investigators say Banning went outside to smoke a cigarette and burst into flame. Havelock police and the city fire marshal are continuing their investigation.

 LOL-Woman suffering from bizarre disorder eats 4,000 washing-up sponges and 100 bars of soap

Dental nurse Kerry Trebilcock has eaten 4,000 washing-up sponges and more than 100 bars of soap due to a rare disorder. The 21-year-old loves nothing more than covering them in hot sauce, Ketchup or mustard for added flavour and also dips them in tea or hot chocolate like biscuits.

Her disorder - known as pica - is so bad that she gets hungry while taking a shower, doing the washing-up or just walking down the cleaning aisle in supermarkets. The disorder causes victims to crave objects that are not food and other sufferers eat metal, coal, sand, chalk — or even lightbulbs and furniture. Kerry, of Mylor, Cornwall, believes she got the bizarre disorder after being infected with hookworm while on holiday to Morocco in 2008.

Her favourite bar of soap is organic lemon and lime and Kerry said: "I have been very particular about the type of sponges and soaps I'd eat and how I'd prepare them."If I went out for the day I'd carry a small plastic bag of cut-up pieces of sponge with some tomato and BBQ sauce in Tupperware. I was never without a 'snack'."Speaking about the first time she ate a sponge Kerry said: "After one dinner where I ate a double helping of lasagne and a tub of ice cream, I still felt hungry."To distract myself, I decided to wash the dishes. I took out a new sponge from a packet and had an overwhelming desire to eat it.

Wow-Waiter pours cold beer over Chancellor Merkel (video)

YOUNG German waiter endured the ultimate professional nightmare when he accidentally poured a tray full of beer over Chancellor Angela Merkel.

Video of the incident, which circulated widely on German news websites overnight, showed the unfortunate 21 year old, identified only by his first name Martin, serving Europe's most powerful woman at a Christian Democratic Union meeting in Demmin, northeast Germany, last week.

But disaster struck when the waiter went to place a tall glass of beer on Merkel's table. He lost his balance, let the tray slip, and sent four glasses of beer down the back of the chancellor's neck and black coat.

Why-Calif. students, 10 and 11, expelled after attempted poisoning

Three California elementary school students who attempted to poison their teacher with rat poison in December have been expelled and moved to other schools -- where teachers feel so threatened that no one wants them in their class.

The students, aged 10 and 11, put rat poison in their teacher's coffee and in the icing of a cupcake, local ABC affiliate KFSN reported. The poisoning attempt was foiled when one of the students had second thoughts and knocked the cup of coffee out of the teacher's hand as she tried to drink it. The attempted poisoning took place between Dec. 12 and 16, police said.

The three students were expelled from Balderas Elementary School in Fresno and have been transferred to other schools in the school board, KFSN reported Saturday.

Two of the students will be sent to the Phoenix Academy, a day program that enrolls expelled students from 67 elementary schools in the district.

It's not clear which school the third student was transferred to.

David Coss, a teacher at the academy school, says the students should face harsher punishment instead of simply being transferred to a new school where they're someone else's concern.

Wow-Highest peak, shortest man

KATHMANDU - Home to Mount Everest, the world’s highest peak, the scenic country of Nepal on Sunday added another height-related superlative - of having the world’s shortest man.

A Guinness World Records team measured Chandra Bahadur Dangi at 54.60 centimetres (21.5 inches), declaring the 72-year-old even shorter the previous title holder, Junrey Balawing, from the Philippines, who stood at 23.5 inches at the age of 18 last year.

“The good news is that Chandra Bahadur Dangi is the world’s shortest living man,” Guiness Records Editor-in-Chief Craig Glenday told reporters after measurements were taken.

“If he is really 72 years old he is the oldest person to be awarded the shortest-man record,” Glenday said, adding Dangi was also the shortest person ever measured by the Guinness World Records.

Teaching-Female Teacher Caught In Bed with Teen Student

FEBRUARY 24--The latest school teacher to get arrested for having sex with one of her underage male students was nabbed after the boy’s younger brother discovered the educator in bed with his sibling, according to police. Kathryn Murray, 28, was arrested yesterday for sexual assault of a child and booked into the Harris County jail, where she is being held in lieu of $250,000 bond. Pictured in the mug shot at right, Murray taught eighth grade at Memorial Middle School before recently being fired. According to a probable cause affidavit filed yesterday in District Court, a 15-year-old student invited Murray to his home on February 11 while his parents were away. The teen asked his 12-year-old brother if it would be okay for “Mrs. Murray” to stop by after 11 PM, investigators reported. Shortly before midnight, the younger boy told cops, he went into his brother’s bedroom and “observed a tan bra and a used condom on the floor.” He also spotted his brother in bed “and the outline of another person under the covers and completely covered by the bedding.”At this point, the older boy decided to make some impromptu introductions, according to the affidavit. “Mrs. Murray, say hi to [younger brother’s name].” The woman replied “Hola,” recalled the boy, who told police that he recognized the woman’s voice as that of “Mrs. Murray, a Memorial Middle School Language Arts teacher.”

The younger brother said that when Murray left the residence at 12:30 AM, she called out to him, “Adios.” When interviewed by investigators, the older boy said that he “was in love with the defendant and he had kissed her.” The boy admitted having sex with Murray in his bedroom on February 11, saying that he was “wearing his pajamas and…pulled up the skirt” that Murray was wearing. The teen’s family has secured a restraining order barring Murray from having any contact with the 15-year-old boy. She is also not allowed to go near Memorial Middle School, where she taught for three years. The above photo of Murray had been on the school’s web site prior to her dismissal. Over the past few months, Murray has started three blogs, two of which were related to class assignments. Her third blog, a personal account, only has a few posts and uses a Socrates quote ("I know nothing except the fact of my ignorance") as its title

Surprise-Man Seeking Scent of A Woman Nabbed

A Florida man is facing a solicitation rap after allegedly offering to pay $15 to enjoy the illicit scent of a woman. The woman in question was an undercover cop posing as a hooker on a Bradenton corner that is a “known location for prostitution,” according to a February 23 probable cause

affidavit. The john, cops allege, was Adrian Baltierra, 51, who “approached the undercover officer and began a conversation.”In short order, the pair struck an agreement that Baltierra “would receive ‘smell pussy’ in exchange for $15.00.” Baltierra, seen in the adjacent mug shot, was then arrested by a takedown team waiting nearby.As a result of Baltierra’s desire to “smell pussy,” he was busted Thursday night for solicitation of prostitution, a misdemeanor. He was released the following day from the Manatee County jail and is scheduled for a court appearance this morning.  A similarly unpleasant “smell pussy” episode has previously been aired in these pages.

What more-Moms buying her daughter £8,000 of cosmetic surgery vouchers for her EIGHTH birthday

For their eighth birthday most little girls can expect a new doll, or a bike, some clothes or maybe a games console. Not Poppy Burge. When she wakes up to her special day next month, her mum Sarah will hand her £8,000 of vouchers... to spend on plastic surgery. And while Poppy is so young her two front teeth have yet to come through, Sarah believes it’s perfectly OK to introduce her daughter to the world of Botox, facelifts, nose-jobs and boob jobs. Sarah, 51, who has already spent more than £250,000 on her own cosmetic procedures over the last 20 years, insists that the best gift she can give Poppy is the chance to be just like her.” I’m investing in my child’s future,” she says. “I’m





giving Poppy the freedom to do what she wants. That’s what Poppy wants for her ­birthday.” I think she is beautiful and I don’t think anything needs to change. But the reality of life is people don’t think they look fine as they are.  “It’s ­empowering for her to be able to take charge of the way she wants to look. She’ll be able to use the ­vouchers when she reaches 18. I’m going to keep buying them for her for Christmas and birthdays until then so she’ll have about £120,000 worth. “People are jealous of my success because I’m creative and fun. The plastic surgery sends them into a wild frenzy.”

Former nurse Sarah has had more than 100 cosmetic procedures. She runs her own cosmetic surgery clinic and regularly holds Botox parties at home in St Neots, Cambridgshire.

Many will think her gift ­outrageous... and Poppy’s birthday ­celebrations ­promise to be just as ­bizarre. Sarah, who has three girls by three different fathers (“Men find it hard to keep up with me,” she says) is throwing a lavish party costing £25,000.

She and husband Anthony, 51, an ­aluminum dealer, have hired a huge 24m x 12m marquee for their garden, which will be decked out in barn-dance style. And before the party even begins, Poppy will be taken on a procession through the local village in a horse and carriage, while 100 guests await her arrival.She will walk in on a pink carpet in a new outfit that includes diamond-­encrusted red boots and a designer dress. After ­dancing and a lunch of sausage and beans, there’ll be entertainment from a singer who has been asked to write and perform a song dedicated to Poppy.

Megan Fox stars in the weirdest advert (video)

 

So this is weird. Megan Fox is currently starring in a Turkish advert for Doritos Fritos Shots and it's the strangest thing we've seen in yonks. According to the ad, if you swallow a packet of Fritos Shots you'll turn into a sex kitten wearing a Jessica Rabbit-style dress. Obviously we can't understand most of what's being said - although Megan and a sweaty man we're guessing is meant to be her agent speak English - but we think the general gist is that a drag queen has hired Megan to make Doritos look sexy, but she turns up looking geeky. (She actually doesn't look geeky at all. She looks amazing.) Cue lots of angry shouting, she downs a packet of Fritos Shots, turns sexy, strides along the stage pouting, speaks a little Turkish and then does a weird dance. The end. We don't get it. Why would you want to advertise crisps by saying they'll make you sexy? Crisps are inherently un-sexy. There's nothing sexy about them. They get on your clothes, under your nails and all over your mouth. And why would you want to turn into a sex kitten while eating them? We usually eat crisps while watching daytime telly wearing our pants. If we suddenly turned into a growly minx we'd be furious. We'd miss Judge Judy!
