A Bus Shelter That Uses The Human Touch Farrakhan Asks President Obama to Open Area 51 and Reveal its UFO Secrets Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan asked that President Obama open up Area 51 to scientists in a sermon he gave on Saturday, February 15. It was the last of a year long sermon series titled, “Time and What Must Be Done.” Farrakhan has often referred to a UFO he calls the Mother Wheel, which according to The New Yorker, he describes as a “heavily armed spaceship the size of a city that will rain destruction upon white America, but save those who embrace the Nation of Islam.” Need a new reason to love your body, no matter what? Here’s one: It makes an excellent extension cord. Comprised of more than 50% water by weight, it conducts electricity really well. In most real-world situations, that would be totally useless — and potentially deadly, should you get struck by lightening — but now you can use your innate ability to activate battery-powered heaters in an outdoor bus shelter in Montreal. Here’s how it works: When two or more people step into the shelter, hold hands and press the palm of their free hand against sensors on the walls, an electrical circuit is completed and four ceiling vents release hot air into the glass-enclosed space.

No Sign of Missing Plane in Area Shown on Satellite Images Malaysian authorities expanded their search for the missing jetliner westward toward India, saying it may have flown for several hours after its last contact with the ground. That scenario would make finding the Boeing 777 a vastly more difficult task, and raises the possibility that searchers have been looking in the wrong place for the plane and its 239 passengers and crew since it disappeared en route to Beijing. In the latest in a series of false leads in the hunt, search planes were sent Thursday to search an area off the southern tip of Vietnam where Chinese satellite images published on a Chinese government website reportedly showed three suspected floating objects.

In an incident in Bangalore, fight broke out between the participants of a marriage function over Biryani prepared for the function. Relatives of the groom and the bride got involved in a heated verbal altercation over the issue, and at the end, the marriage broke down, and the concerned walked away in a huff. From the groom’s side, it was made abundantly clear much in advance that mutton Biryani was to be prepared for the function. The family of the bride, which reportedly had agreed to the demand, violated the agreement and instead, prepared chicken Biryani.

Kamur of the week

Section 144 during Holi. It has to be said that the district administration has come up with an amazing idea of stopping conflicts during Holi - Section 144. But is this what they could come up with. People celebrate the festival of Holi with great joy and fervour and being together in a group is a natural tendency during the occasion. So was this all that the ‘intel insides’ could think of to curb indiscipline. What a kamur we must say!
