Smelly Kebab's Banned!!

Massimo Botocci, mayor of a Northern Italian Town announced a ban on the selling of sandwiches and kebabs because he considered them being smelly and that they were not part of the Italian tradition.  He cited health and sanitary regulations to justify the bans and further adds that people who want to eat a kebab can prepare it at home or outside of the historic centre.

Sacked after being tricked into putting an electronic tag on a criminal’s prosthetic leg

Two security firm workers were sacked after they were tricked into putting an electronic tag on a criminal’s prosthetic leg.  Christopher Lowcock aged 29 wrapped his false leg in bandage and lied to the security workers who failed to carry out the proper tests when they were setting up the tag and monitoring equipment in Rochdale, England where the criminal resides. 

By fooling the G4S security officers, the criminal was able to breach certain rules and regulations as well as court imposed curfews by simply removing his leg and doing whatever he wanted.  A second G4S officer also failed to carry out the proper tests when he went to check the monitoring equipment. 

When the management got suspicious last month, they went for a site visit at the criminal’s place and they were surprised to find that he was already back into custody for driving illegally.  A spokesperson for G4S claims that given the critical nature of this service and the problems that may arise for not respecting the strict procedures, it was considered that the staff members had committed a serious professional blunder and was therefore dismissed from the company.

KitKat Fish

Have you ever heard of a fish which was addicted to chocolate and ate nothing but Kit Kats? Meet Gary-he is a 4 kilogram, 40cm long gourami fish who lives at the Sea Life London Aquarium and sadly he used to be a chocoholic.  The good news however is that staff members have managed to curb this addiction and have moved the fish onto a healthier diet. 

The staff members report that when they just inherited the fish, they were surprised to find out that the fish did not eat anything and they later found out that the previous owners raised their fish on Kit Kats only.  One way of getting the fish to eat other food was by inserting Kit Kat pieces into grapes and gradually introducing the fish to other food.  It is believed that the fish did not suffer from any negative health effects from this addiction but it remains a quite surprising thing to find a fish that normally feeds on a diet of fruits which has been fed chocolates its entire life.

Free Access to a park for Virgins

Park for Virgins in China

Now this is definitely a new concept and perhaps a very weird one was well.  A nature park in China which is displaying simple and pure flowers is giving free entry and prizes to virgin females who are aged 22 and above.  The rules are such that women who are still a virgin are granted free access to the Zhoulou Scenic resort which is reputed for its magnificent waterfall views and lovely flowers. 

You may be wondering how the officials are to check the virginity of the visitors in order to grant them free access-if you are thinking that visitors will have to provide medical proof of their virginity, you are wrong.  The Hunan province officials are simply relying on the honesty of the visitors and going with the honor system!
