How a Top Nazi's Brother Saved Lives

Hermann Göring was one of the Nazi party's most powerful figures and an adamant anti-Semite. But his younger brother Albert worked to save the lives of dozens of Jews. Despite his efforts to do good, Albert's family name would ultimately prove to be a curse. In downtown Vienna under the Nazis, two members of the SA had decided to humiliate an old woman. A crowd gathered and jeered as the stormtroopers hung a sign bearing the words "I'm a dirty Jew" around the woman's neck. Suddenly, a tall man with a high forehead and thick mustache pushed his way angrily through the mob and freed the woman. "There was a scuffle with two stormtroopers, I hit them and ...

ScienceDaily (Apr. 30, 2012) — A team of Rice University students accepted a challenge to turn shale gas produced in China into a range of useful, profitable and environmentally friendly products and did so in a cost-effective manner. The CHBE Pandas (CHBE stands for chemical and biomolecular engineering) designed a process by which shale gas extracted in the rich Sichuan Basin could be turned into methanol, hydrogen and carbon disulfide, all valuable products in the booming Chinese economy. The Rice team was one of seven groups of students presented similar challenges for locations outside of the United States as their capstone design projects, required of most graduates of ...
German Police Identify Burglar by His Earprints

Prints left by ears are as unique as fingerprints, say police. Criminals beware -- don't leave earprints. They are as useful to the police as finger prints. A burglar in Germany made the mistake of pressing his ear to front doors to check if anyone was home. The unique prints have allowed the police to pin 96 burglaries on him. Info Police in Germany said on Sunday they had solved a series of 96 burglaries by identifying the culprit using the earprints he had left at the scenes while listening at doors. The 33-year old man from Macedonia was arrested and temporarily held in custody last December after committing a burglary in Kiel, police in Hamburg said in a statement. He has now ...
Monday’s medical myth: men think about sex every seven seconds

There is no consensus among researchers about the frequency of men's sexual thoughts, but every seven seconds seems a little much. Each time you turn on the television after 10pm, eavesdrop on a group of men at your local pub, or drive past a billboard, you’re likely to encounter some stereotypes about masculinity and men’s sexuality. We’re told that men’s minds are so immersed in thoughts of sex that it can become a full-time preoccupation. Think of James Bond’s sexual exploits, Cola Cola’s “bigger is better” campaign, and the folklore that men think about sex every seven seconds (which would amount to more than 8,000 thoughts about sex a day). ...

If you're planning a trip to the dentist, it might not be the wisest decision to make your appointment with the person you just broke up with. A Polish woman is facing three years in prison after she removed all of her ex-boyfriend's teeth during dental surgery just days after their breakup. "I tried to be professional and detach myself from my emotions," Anna Mackowiak, 34, told the Austrian Times. "But when I saw him lying there I just thought, 'What a bastard' and decided to take all his teeth out." Marek Olszewski, 45, reportedly showed up at Mackowiak's dental office complaining of toothache just days after he broke up with her. She then ...

Forget global warming and fuel shortages... the world is facing a CHOCOLATE crisis

The world is on the brink of a chocolate supply crisis thanks to instability in cacao growing areas and soaring demand in developing countries, an expert has warned. Professor David Guest of the University of Sydney's Faculty of Agriculture and Environment says farming methods used by cacao bean growers are in dire need of modernisation. He warns that global production of cacao, the raw ingredient in chocolate, must increase nearly a quarter by 2020 to keep up with demand from China and other rising economies. However, cacao growing regions remain some of the most undeveloped and unstable parts of the world and farmers face significant challenges in bringing production up to speed. ...

A Nation of Morons by Stephen Lendman Jefferson called an educated citizenry "a vital requisite for our survival as a free people." Madison warned that "A popular Government, without popular information, or the means of acquiring it, is but a Prologue to a Farce or a Tragedy, or, perhaps both." Jack Kennedy said "The ignorance of one voter in a democracy impairs the security of all." In 1748, Montesquieu said "The tyranny of a principal in an oligarchy is not so dangerous to the public welfare as the apathy of a citizen in a democracy." In a June 1950 commencement speech, Boston University President Daniel Marsh said, "If the (television) ...

(Reuters) - A pit bull named Big Boi began menacing George and Shellie Zimmerman in the fall of 2009. The first time the dog ran free and cornered Shellie in their gated community in Sanford, Florida, George called the owner to complain. The second time, Big Boi frightened his mother-in-law's dog. Zimmerman called Seminole County Animal Services and bought pepper spray. The third time he saw the dog on the loose, he called again. An officer came to the house, county records show. "Don't use pepper spray," he told the Zimmermans, according to a friend. "It'll take two or three seconds to take effect, but a quarter second for the dog to jump you," he said. ...

(Reuters) Apr 20 - Starbucks said on its blog that it will stop using a natural, government-approved coloring made from crushed beetles in its strawberry flavoring by late June, bowing to pressure from some vegetarian customers. Starbucks has been using the extract in its strawberry "frappuccinos" and smoothies, as well as some deserts like raspberry swirl cake. "After a thorough, yet fastidious, evaluation, I am pleased to report that we are reformulating the affected products to assure the highest quality possible," Cliff Burrows, president of Starbucks U.S., wrote in a blog post. Instead, the coffeehouse chain said it plans to use lycopene, a natural, tomato-based ...

Vladimir Putin Could Secretly Be The Richest Person In The World

The life he leads makes it possible. But is Vladimir Putin secretly the wealthiest person in the world? The Bureau of Investigative Journalism's Maeve McClenaghan talks to a Russian political analyst who says that Putin owns shares in three major oil and gas companies: 4.5% of Gazprom, 37% of oil supplier Surgutneftegas and up to 75% of oil trader Gunvor. The analyst, Stanislav Belkovsky, says the Russian president could be worth up to $70 billion. "His estimate is based on information gained from confidential sources around the corporations, Belkovsky claims. But he is reluctant to reveal more," McClenaghan writes. TBIG's premise is that Putin's declaration of ...
Cop convicted for taking lunch salad bribe

A police officer from western Sweden who agreed to let a beltless motorist off the hook in exchange for a salad has learned the hard way there's no such thing as a free lunch. Instead, the officer has been convicted of bribery and sentenced to 20,800 kronor ($3,100) in fines, all because he asked for and accepted a 65 kronor salad. The conviction stems from an incident which took place in September 2011 when the traffic cop stopped a man who was driving without a seatbelt on a Gothenburg-area roadway. The officer duly informed the offender, a 50-year-old restaurant owner, that he would be fined 1,500 kronor for neglecting to buckle up in accordance with Swedish traffic laws. The ...
Doctors must pay for 'stolen sperm' babies

Two German gynaecologists will have to pay child support for twins they created via artificial insemination – because the biological father did not know anything about it. The district court in Dortmund ruled on Thursday that the doctors must bear financial responsibility for the five-year-old twins created from the frozen sperm which had been slated for destruction – because they did it without the permission of the father. The man, who portrayed himself as a victim of his partner’s deceit and likened the use of his sperm to a robbery, said he was relieved by the verdict. “There was no desire on my part to have children at that time,” the 40-year-old told the ...
