I just wanted a spot where I could dump some of the interesting stories I've run across without making a unique thread topic. There've been some interesting ones.


When sinkhole swallows Dunedin woman's world, community responds

DUNEDIN — Elvira Oakes does not like being in the spotlight. After a sinkhole, 90 feet across and 53 feet deep, opened up in her back yard last month, swallowing her home, speaking to the media was the last thing she wanted to do.

^^^Above from someone else. His comment:

That isn't the title of the actual article, but on the TV news this morning they kept repeating "Seven Small Earthquakes" on the hour like a tongue twister or mantra, and then went into detail about the phenomena.

Example:

This seemed really strange.

Carnivorous fish attack in Argentina injures 70 bathers

http://rt.com/news/piranhas-injure-60-argentina-857/

A shoal of piranhas has attacked bathers in the Argentinian province of Rosario, injuring 70 people and resulting in amputations. Officials have suggested the freak incident was caused by the unusually high temperatures at the time of the attack.

The attack occurred on the beaches of Rambla Catalunya on the river Parana, where around 9,000 people had gathered on Christmas Day to escape the heat wave Argentina has been experiencing for the last few days

“It came out of nowhere. Suddenly people started appearing with bites on their hands and feet. It was sudden,” said Federico Cornier, director of the Emergency Medical Services (SIES), to newspaper La Nacion.

Cornier said most of the injuries that had been sustained by the bathers were light. Among the more seriously injured were a nine-year-old girl who had part of a finger bitten off, while one man had a toe amputated.

“This is not normal,” Cornier told Argentine TV. “It's normal for there to be an isolated bite or injury, but the magnitude in this case was great… this is an exceptional event.”

This guy/world is worth doing some study and research. This is the first link I ran across and I have another related link but there are many pages loaded with more details and stories. I can't remember the names of the two Canadian cities mentioned but I remember reading that that were built entirely from dead bodies and bribes and for all I read it was believable.

Vito Rizzuto, Canada’s most notorious mobster, dies suddenly

Vito Rizzuto, considered Canada’s most notorious mobster, has died suddenly in a Montreal hospital just hours after complaining he felt ill at a party

By: Peter Edwards Star Reporter, Published on Mon Dec 23 2013

Vito Rizzuto, considered Canada’s most notorious mobster, died suddenly in a Montreal hospital on Monday morning, hours after complaining he felt ill at a party. He was 67.

Ironically, his death at Sacré-Coeur Hospital in the Cartierville district of Montreal, comes as he was considered by police sources to be winning a sustained gang war in Montreal and the Toronto region.

A spokesperson for the Quebec Coroner’s office Sacré-Coeur was quoted as saying there would be no autopsy because he died of natural medical causes.

Antonio Nicaso, an internationally respected authority on organized crime, said he finds the decision not to carry out an autopsy bizarre.

Here's a related story. Joseph Di Maulo, who was gunned down in his driveway, apparently had a falling out with Vito Rizutto.

Pictured is his wife and other family members. They're about to release doves,

Rizutto had organizations all over, Italy, Mexico, and... several other places.

If there ever was a 'God-father' this guy probably would have been it. I wonder personally about his complicity with the gov, the catholics, in child trafficking. I know prostitution was part part of his organization but I don't know what if any other links in crime or the depth or degree.

A former lover of disgraced Lostprophets star Ian Watkins says the singer wanted to kidnap and kill children.

Joanne Mjadzelics, also known as Joanne Majic, said she believes Watkins, 36, attacked hundreds of young people around the world .

On Tuesday, Watkins admitted charges including attempting to rape a baby and sexual assault .

But Joanne, 38, who says she told police of his depraved desire to attack children in 2008, said: “I’m absolutely sure Ian wouldn’t have stopped at abuse. He wanted to rape and kill children. He wanted to rape newborns.

“He even wanted to get me pregnant so he could rape our baby. How does anyone become that sick?

He also confessed how his favourite film was an eastern European film which shows a newborn baby being raped.

Now that they have him in custody I hope they do all they can to find out where he got that film, who made it, and who got a copy to watch and deal with those animals.
