This is seriously disturbing. A Peruvian gang responsible for killing people, extracting their fat and selling it to cosmetic companies has been disbanded. Next time you apply your lipstick, think of Pedro.
Pedro finally got close to a Real Girl
The 4 gang members caught by the Peruvian cops explained how they kidnapped and murdered people and then extracted their fat in a low tech lab. This fat was then bottled and dispatched to buyers.
Over 60 people are missing and the cops believe they are victims of the evil fat traffickers. Remains of some of the victims were discovered around a rural house that served as their haunt.
The cops got suspicious when they heard of a shipment of fat that arrived in Lima by bus from the Peruvian mountains. They are now hunting for the buyers of the fat and other people associated with this ghoulish group.
This just proves that fact is way freakier than fiction. Imagine being chased down a desolate valley by a gang of mad fat extractors. Reminisces of Texas Chainsaw Massacre? Hills Have Eyes? The human species is capable of so much horror.

Bombs Away
You don’t have to go breathless with fun this Diwali. Go
green with smoke free firecrackers.
Jaipur firecracker manufacturers have developed a new range of crackers with more whiz bang and pyrotechnics and less smoke. Apparently all it took was some chemical manipulation.
From Reuters:
“These smoke-free crackers are made by reducing the quantity of chemical content, responsible for emitting smoke. Also, we have increased the quantity of the chemicals that emanate various colors and light,” said Zahir Ahmad, a firecracker shop owner.
“We have used herbs in the manufacturing of these crackers, so that smoke is less when they are burned.”
This means you’ll be able to see a whole lot more of the horizon the day after Diwali, but it comes at an added cost. Some of these sizzlers are selling for up to Rs. 5000. Those who can afford it are not complaining and neither will their asthamatic neighbors.
Personally, I wish they would do away with the bang too. My ears hear door bells ringing 24/7 for days after the festival of light and terrible noise.
Forum’s open for discussion. Do you still buy crackers?

While your grandma was watching Balika Vadhu, 100 year old Ruth Frith from Brisbane was making history. She was hoping to win a Gold in Shot Put at the World Masters Games in Sydney. Ruth was quite confident because, well… she was the only competitor in the over 100s category. However, she not only won her medal, but also set the record with her 13 ft 4.2 in throw on Sunday.
Shot Put Granny Ruth Frith
According to Reuters:
Frith trains five days a week, regularly lifting 35 kg (77 lb) weights. She doesn’t drink or smoke and she doesn’t eat vegetables either, claiming she hasn’t liked them since she was young.
That’s the secret. No comments on exercise, but if you want to live long, and you’ve got to be strong, don’t count your chickens… cook them.
