Prepare for a hellish invasion of daddy-long-legs

Image
Daddy-long-legs are evil insects who want to watch the world burn. And this year we’re preparing for a mass invasion. The hellish crane flies lay their larvae under lawns during winter – but a huge majority is normally wiped out by cold weather. However, because last winter was particularly mild, more have survived than usual, say experts. Entomologist Barry Warrington, from Hull, said: ‘It is definitely a bumper year this year, simply due to the nice weather. ‘It has not been as cold, there is a lot more for them to prey on.  I think last year was a bit colder, so there wasn’t as many daddy long legs, but this year there are more than last. ‘Warmer conditions suit them more, and they are actually out earlier than usual this year. ‘They eat smaller insects and the warm weather is good for them too. ‘People will start to see them even more in the last couple of weeks as they head indoors for warmth, shelter and to find a mate.’ SOURCE

Couple 'had rowdy sex on kitchen floor in front of their crying children'

Image
A randy couple have been hauled in front of a court after allegedly having loud sex on the kitchen floor - as their crying children looked on. Police were called to a disturbance at the family's home in  Springfield, Massachusetts, before finding it was less of a routine call than they were used to. Officers said there were three visibly upset children, distressed at what was happening in front of their eyes. The couple, Adis A. Negron, 30, and Elias Alicea, 38, were arrested and have since appeared in court, where they denied charges of open and gross lewdness. A police report filed in the court revealed cops heard children crying and shouting inside the Haumont Terrace apartment on June 13. No one answered the door at first, before one of the children saw the officers outside and let them in, Masslive reports . "The children were all visibly upset, crying, sobbing...tears rolling down their cheeks while looking at their ... actions," the rep...

Sunbed cancer will kill me in 8 weeks but I’m smiling for kids’ sake

Image
FLICKING through the Center Parcs brochure, Louise Cook happily plans to whisk her three lively kids away. She knows Summer, six, Mason, four, and Chloe, 18 months, will have the time of their lives. But at just 27, Louise faces the heartbreak that the trip will provide some of their last shared memories. Louise has cancer and has been given just eight weeks to live after using sunbeds three times a week for two years. The brave mum says: “I was young and naive and will pay for that with my life. But I refuse to let cancer define our lives while I’m still here.  I’ll keep happy for my babies, they make me smile every day.” Now, as Louise prepares for her children to grow up without a mum, she is desperate for Sun readers to be aware of the dangers of sunbeds. Louise, who is married to Martyn Cook, 25, was diagnosed with malignant melanoma when she was nine weeks pregnant with their daughter, Chloe. Just 15 weeks later she was told the cancer ...

Hospital apologises after moving RAF man because of uniform

Image
A hospital has apologised after an RAF sergeant was moved away from oth er patients because staff said his uniform might cause offence. Sgt Mark Prendeville was taken to the Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother Hospital in Margate, Kent, after an accident during a training exercise. Staff moved him so other patients could not see him, the Sun reported. A previous "altercation" involving a man in uniform led to the 38-year-old being moved, the hospital said. The aircraft engineer needed medical attention after chemicals from a fire extinguisher got into his eyes while training at RAF Manston, Kent, on Wednesday. He was moved twice while in the accident and emergency department so others could not see him, his family said. 'Absolutely dumbfounded' Sgt Prendeville's father, Jim Prendeville, said he was "disgusted" by the way his son had been treated: "He's served all over the world, he's been to Afghanistan, Bosnia, Iraq y...

Here's What Would Happen To The World If Facebook Went Down For Good

Image
Earlier today, Facebook went down and absolutely no one knew what to do with their lives for about 21 minutes.  It was hell.  But the outage got us wondering, what would happen if Facebook just vanished off the face of the earth?  The world as we know it would cease to exist. Well, here's what we reckon could happen if 1.5 billion people were denied access to their favourite social networking site. Your relationship would never be official ever again I was once dating a girl for about seven months before she asked if I was her boyfriend.  Now, I thought I'd naturally become her boyfriend but then she dropped the bombshell:  "Well, why aren't we Facebook official?" Facebook. Official. We split up not long after. So, relationships would suffer massively and we'd all struggle to meet someone new because 99% of us are far too terrified of actually talking to members of the opposite sex in real life.  Myspace would ...

Man pleads insanity to killing wife after he ate marijuana sweet

Image
A man accused of eating marijuana-infused candy he bought at a legal pot shop and then killing his wife has changed his plea to not guilty by reason of insanity. Richard Kirk, 49, is charged with first-degree murder after his wife, Kristine, 44, was shot dead in April 2014. His legal team have suggested that Kirk was so impaired by the weed-infused ‘Karma Kandy Orange Ginger’ that he may not have intended to kill her. The shooting stoked concerns about the effects of the marijuana snacks, which have become popular since Denver legalised recreational marijuana stores. Just before she was shot, Kristine Kirk told 911 dispatchers that her husband was acting more drunk than violent, crawling through a bedroom window and cutting his legs on broken glass. Prosecutors maintain he had the sense to remember the code to a locked gun safe and press the weapon to his wife’s head. Kirk pleaded not guilty in March. He has since recruited a new attorney, who has not ...

Man ‘ripped out girlfriend’s intestines because she screamed ex’s name during sex’

Image
A man accused of murdering his girlfriend ripped out her intestines with his bare hands because she twice called out the name of her ex-husband during sex, police said. Fidel Lopez, 24, said he flew into a drunken rage after 31-year-old Maria Nemeth screamed her ex’s name while they were having sex at their Florida apartment. Lopez shattered a glass door, punched holes in the wall and ripped a door clean off its hinges before mutilating his girlfriend with several objects and disemboweling her with his hands, authorities say. According to the report, the 24-year-old called police in the early hours of Sunday morning and arriving officers found him sobbing over her lifeless body. Paramedics pronounced Ms Nemeth dead at about 4am, half an hour after Lopez called police. Lopez initially told officers that he had put a beer bottle inside his girlfriend during sex, and she had gone to the bathroom to throw up before having trouble breathing. He later admitted that she ...

Here’s what Microsoft gave the teenager who was arrested for bringing a homemade clock to school

It’s been quite the week for Ahmed Mohamed. The 14-year-old was arrested this past Monday at his Irving, Texas high school after bringing a homemade clock into class to show his teacher at MacArthur High School.  He was then questioned by police and taken into custody for building what the police call a “hoax bomb.” Mohamed was eventually released after police did not file charges.  However, that was certainly not the end of it, as the story went viral across the Internet.  Many supported Mohamed’s inventive curiosity — though some wondered how “inventive” the clock actually was — and President Obama even invited the teen to visit the White House.  Mohamed was hailed as a hero, with other tech leaders like  Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg and Box CEO Aaron Levie inviting him to visit their Silicon Valley offices. Now, Microsoft is showing Mohamed some love.  Enjoyed delivering box of tech goodies gifted by @microsoft ...

This ‘fish’ is actually a massive dead whale

Image
This is not a photo of a dead fish lying by some grass.  It is really a gigantic whale which appeared on a shoreline in Alaska.  Those cocoa things?  They are bears eating it. That is how enormous it is.  On the off chance that you aren't nauseous about the circle of life, you can in any event welcome that those bear fledglings will most likely get enough fat from this whale  (in the event that it isn't too severely decayed) to help them survive the winter.  While this sight may be amazing it is nothing but the same old thing , as a few whales have purportedly been appearing on the shore of Alaska and British Columbia in Canada lately. Marine biologists are investigating the sudden rise in carcasses found, however many, like this one, are eaten by bears and other animals, making it hard for scientists to gather samples. Numerous trust that an increment in poisonous green growth off the west shoreline of North A...

Son spent all of his inheritance money to prove his father was guilty of murdering his mother

Image
Weeks before her passing, researcher Uta von Schwedler made a major leap forward with her exploration into adolescence leukemia.  She was making strides to win care of her kids and had discovered new love after she separated from her spouse of 16 years, John "Johnny" Brickman Walls .  At that point she was discovered dead in a shower.  The world was robbed of a great talent and four children lost their mum.  Uta's demise was ruled as suicide, yet her child Pelle declined to trust his mom would take her own life, so he spent the greater part of his inheritance attempting to demonstrate it was murder. Not just that, he guaranteed he knew who the executioner was – his dad.  In 2011, German-conceived Uta, 49, lived in Salt Lake City and was attempting to win full care of her youngsters.  Four years prior she had separated from their dad Johnny. They'd met as understudies in California, and Johnny had turned into a very much loved and regarde...

Image
A man was captured on a charge of homicide after supposedly stuffing a container of cleanser into a lady's genitals, prosecutors in the United Kingdom said.  The Winchester Crown Court was informed that 51-year-old Majella Lynch of Southampton, was taken to a clinic in frightful torment following 43-year-old Daniel McBride, stuffed a full cleanser jug into her reproductive organs.  Prosecutors told the court that her passing was the aftereffect of a debased rape as it was unthinkable for her to push the container into herself.  McBride denied the claims.

McBride advised his companion that he jumped at the chance to have intercourse with more established ladies.  The court heard that Lynch was a dipsomaniac, which left her helpless.  At the point when Lynch was brought into the doctor's facility...
