Woman caught on camera walking into police station and hurling raw BACON and sausages at cops


This is the bizarre moment a woman walked into a police station and threw raw pork at police officers.

CCTV footage has revealed the moment 24-year-old Lindsey McNamara walked into the Framingham Police Department in Massachusetts to throw uncooked bacon and sausages at the reception window.

Lindsey, a nursing student, can be seen entering the station with a Dunkin' Donuts box, while a bystander is filling in some forms at the desk.

Unaware of what's about to happen, the witness is taken aback when the young woman opens the box to reveal pounds of raw pork.

According to police, Lindsey could be heard shouting: "It's time to feed the pigs" as she chucked the food at the bulletproof window.


Seconds later two police officers appeared to arrest Lindsey, who appeared to be wearing a black coat with tartan pyjama bottoms and beige slippers.

The witness can be seen reaching for his smartphone as he grabs a quick photograph of the scene.

According to MailOnline, McNamara later appeared in court after being charged with malicious destruction of property, and disorderly conduct.

At the hearing she was ordered to have a psychiatric evaluation before being due back in court on February 9.

The incident was thought to have taken place in December, although the one minute CCTV footage has only recently been uploaded to YouTube where it has had 190,716 views in five days.



Sex positions Dangerous sex: Scientists find the most dangerous sexual position


We've all been there: you're in the middle of it and then something terrible happens, like... you fall off the wardrobe and have to be rushed to A&E in your Batman costume. Or maybe someone somehow fractures a penis.

Scientists in Brazil were so fascinated by this that they decided to look into dangerous sex. Nice work if you can get it. Their study was published last year.

What's THE most penis-endangering position?


According to the study, woman on top is the most dangerous kind of sexual position - and carries the most risk of penile fracture.

The Brazilian experts say: "When woman is on top she usually controls the movement with her entire body weight landing on the erect penis, not being able to interrupt it when the penis suffers a wrong way penetration, because the harm is usually minor in woman with no pain but major in the penis.

"...When the man is controlling the movement, he has better chances of stopping the penetration energy in response to the pain related to the penis harm, minimizing it."

Fantastic stuff, guys.

Is a penile fracture all that bad though?

Well, for one thing, there's the pain. LOTS OF PAIN. But also some other alarming symptoms.

In 50% of cases, a cracking sound was heard. Yep, the horrifying sound of a penis cracking due to too much enthusiasm.

Also, in 80% of cases, the men lost their erection. WAIT. What about the other 20%? "Oh that cracking sound? It was nothing, probably just the wind." That is hardcore.

Unfortunately, two men in the study suffered long-term damage in the form of erectile dysfunction.


So should I just revert back to missionary?

Certainly not! While the results are compelling, one minor problem with this study is sample size.

The hospital was only able to find 44 patients with a penile fracture who were able to be used in the study.

Of these men, 28 were injured by having heterosexual sex, and four during homosexual intercourse. In case you're wondering, that's not wildly out of line with the proportion of men who identify as having had homosexual experiences.

Six men somehow managed to fracture their penis through "penis manipulation" (and we can only hazard a guess at what that involved) - and four injured their penis in a way which was "unclear". SURE. YOU JUST WOKE UP LIKE THAT.

The moral of this story? Be careful out there, and in the bedroom too.




'Cannibal cop' Gilberto Valle who plotted to COOK his ex-wife is out of jail and hungry for love


A cannibal cop who was jailed after plotting to cook and eat his ex-wife has been released... and is now looking to get back on the dating scene.

Incredibly, the 30-year-old catch Gilberto Valle lists COOKING among his hobbies on an online profile set up on Match.com.

On the profile he adds: “I am spending my energy rebounding from the errors I made in my past and rebuilding my life.

"Things are progressing very well on that front, and I am just beginning a new career.

"I have a few bucket list items: a cross-country drive along with other traveling, seeing Jerry Seinfeld do stand-up, going to a live Hell’s Kitchen dinner service.

"I drink an abnormal amount of coffee, sometimes I just like it black. My favorite chain coffee is Dunkin’ Donuts, but at home I drink Cafe Bustelo."

Tencent cracks down cyber crime

Chinese Internet giant Tencent Holdings Ltd helped police crack down on 200 groups involved in cyberspace fraud and extortion over the past year.
Shenzhen-based Tencent said on Tuesday there were new trends in online crimes in 2014.

Those conducting online crimes are no longer mainly individuals with more working together to make financial gains by hacking into website databases and stealing the personal information of netizens.

About 200 million cell phones in China had been hit with viruses whereas in 2013 the number was less than 100 million. Sending short messages to lure cell phone users to download software containing viruses was the most used tactic last year.

Tencent also said that with more databases being hacked, increased personal information is leaked. Those engaged in cyber crimes pretend to be friends or family members of their targets.

According to the report, most of those carrying out cyber crimes are in China's Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region and Guangdong, Hainan and Fujian provinces.

Four macaque circus trainers acquitted


ZHENGZHOU -- Four macaque circus trainers in central China will be allowed to continue performances after a court overturned a first-instance verdict which found them guilty of illegally transporting rare wildlife.

The People's Court of Xinye County in Henan Province announced Bao Fengshan and three others were innocent given their minor offense in a second trial verdict.

The trainers caused no harm to the macaques in their transportation and performances and thus the offense was very minor, the court said on Tuesday.

The four were detained in July 2014 by local police when performing with six macaques on the streets of Mudanjiang City in the northeastern Heilongjiang Province, because they did not have a wildlife transportation license.

A local court in Heilongjiang saw the case in late September and said he and his fellow trainers committed the crime of illegally transporting rare wildlife. But the court was lenient, not handing out criminal penalties.

Despite their release, the four appealed as they feared they would not be able to continue their circus performances given the conviction.

According to regulations, macaque performers need to have three licenses, namely for domestication and breeding, performing, and wildlife transport. But most performers have no wildlife transport licenses due to the complicated administration procedures to obtain them.

"Our family has been macaque performers for generation after generation, we never had a wildlife transport license," said Zhang Zhizhong, a macaque circus performer in Xinye.

Without the transport license, Zhang said he was often driven away by authorities when performing in other places.

Though macaque circus performers finally won the case, the most troublesome issue has not yet been solved, said Zhang Junran, head of the Macaque Art Association of Xinye County.

"We hope relevant departments can simplify procedures for us to obtain all licenses, taking into account the specialty of the intangible cultural heritage," said Zhang. Zhang added that he also hoped to set up formal macaque circus troupes and show the performances on stages instead of streets in the future.

Monkey circuses are a traditional art form in Xinye and listed as an intangible cultural heritage by Henan Province in 2009. Its origins date back over 2,000 years during the Eastern Han Dynasty. Currently, several hundred people in Xinye are macaque circus trainers and performers. They travel to different places across the country to perform to earn money.


NGO records 9,286 protests in Venezuela in 2014

"Venezuelans took the streets in 2014 peacefully demanding their rights," said Marco Antonio Ponce, the general coordinator of the Venezuelan Observatory of Social Conflict


In its latest report, non-governmental organization Observatorio Venezolano de conflictividad Social (Venezuelan Observatory of Social Conflict, OVCS) comments that 9,286 protests took place in Venezuela in 2014, that is, 26 protests daily. The research showed a hike in Venezuela's peaceful protests, marking a record high in the contemporary history of the nation. 

"Venezuelans took the streets in 2014 peacefully demanding their rights, yet the State responded with systematic political repression and criminalization, which resulted in a large number of people injured, dead, and political prisoners. We are concerned about the increase of impunity and human rights violations in Venezuela." Marco Antonio Ponce, OVCS general coordinator, said.

In the report, the NGO elaborates on the demands of the population, the sort of protests, the State's response, among other matters. It also explains that 52% of the protests on record during 2014 had to do with rejection towards Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his cabinet.
