What concerns me is why anti-terrorist squads at the Olympics would need flamethrowers...

Meh!
All I need is a garlic-rich meal, an après dinner nap, and then a strategically placed lighter to show you what REAL biological flamethrowing is all about....
And what not from China: Chinese, uhm, cheerleaders are preparing for the olympics :inquisitive:

(best of Chinese culture, surely?)
What with the Olympics coming up and all of this emphasis on sports, why do we ignore bog snorkeling? Any competition that involves riding a mountain bike into a trench bog while wearing s snorkel is worth discussing ...
Competitors first added a mountain bike to the bog-snorkelling proceedings in 2005 and it has been growing in popularity ever since.
Those who accept the challenge use a bike prepared with a lead-filled frame and water-filled tyres to ensure grip on the pond bottom. The snorkeller-cyclist wears a lead weight belt to avoid floating off the bike.
The terrorists are recruiting children with the promise of blowing up portable toilets. Who can resist their wily ways?

Yuck!!!
Just to whet you appetite, here's some extracts.

San Francisco's tribute to President Bush.
Apologies if this is a little too political for News of the Weird, I took the moral of the story to be as much "people from San Francisco are silly" as "Bush is teh suck".
They're going to use microwaves to bake a silent scream in your skull. No, really.
A US company claims it is ready to build a microwave ray gun able to beam sounds directly into people's heads.
The device – dubbed MEDUSA (Mob Excess Deterrent Using Silent Audio) – exploits the microwave audio effect, in which short microwave pulses rapidly heat tissue, causing a shockwave inside the skull that can be detected by the ears. [...]
MEDUSA involves a microwave auditory effect "loud" enough to cause discomfort or even incapacitation. Sadovnik says that normal audio safety limits do not apply since the sound does not enter through the eardrums.
"The repel effect is a combination of loudness and the irritation factor," he says. "You can’t block it out."
Irony: It can be illegal in Massachusetts.

Childhood peace crusader pleads guilty to shooting
Tuesday, July 8, 2008
A Boston man who as a child implored the governor of Massachusetts to "stop the violence" has admitted to fatally shooting another man.
Jason Meeks pleaded guilty Monday to voluntary manslaughter in the 2001 shooting death of Alvaro Sanders. The 27-year-old Meeks also pleaded guilty to wounding another man in the shooting and to witness intimidation. He was sentenced to 17 years in prison.
Prosecutors say Sanders was not Meeks' intended target.
Meeks had been charged with first-degree murder, but a jury deadlocked in his trial earlier this year, prompting prosecutors to negotiate the plea agreement.
In 1991, when he was just 10, Meeks wrote a letter to then-Gov. William Weld asking him to "stop the violence" and "put the bad people in jail."

Teen delivers LSD cookies to police departments
FORT WORTH - A man performing community service delivered drug-laced cookies to police departments in both Blue Mound and Lake Worth on Monday, authorities said.
At least three officers at the Blue Mound Police Department consumed some food that came from a basket of cookies and assorted candies delivered by Christian Phillips, 18, on behalf of Mothers Against Drunk Driving. At the time, Phillips was working for MADD as part of ordered community service.
It was discovered the cookies contained LSD after staff at Blue Mound thought the cookies smelled of marijuana and sent them for testing.
Lake Worth Police Department, who was warned by Blue Mound, arrested Phillips when he came into their department to deliver another basket.
Who says that hard work never killed anyone?
