Two Texas men have been charged for their plans to stage an armed coup on the 87,000 person Haitan island of Gonave.
Gavin Weisenburg and Tanner Thomas went through extensive preparation before the plot was foiled by the FBI. They began learning Haitan Creole, Thomas enlisted in the U.S. Air Force specifically to gain military skills, Weisenburg enrolled in a Fire Academy to train in command protocols (though he later failed out) and they schemed to recruit members of the D.C. area homeless population to serve as their mercenary force.
They planned to arrive by sailboat with firearms, take the lives of all men, and enslave the women and children. Both men were arrested and charged federally and could face up to life in federal prison.
A pastor reportedly farts on people's faces as a healing process to cure all spiritual and physical problems. Pastor Christ Penelope, of SevenFold Holy Spirit Ministries has created a buzz online for his unorthodox method of healing people after a photo of him sitting on the heads of people, apparently farting on them, went viral.
According to the pastor, farting near the person's nostrils is important so that the "healing power" can enter the body to do its work.
"It started with Master Jesus when he stepped on Peter. It is the demonstration of God's power. Just like God made Adam go into a deep sleep, it is a similar thing. God did anything with the body of Adam while he was on the ground in deep sleep. He was not feeling anything. The Bible doesn't say anything about Adam saying 'God, you are hurting me'," the pastor told the magazine Drum.
Surprisingly, many people wait up to two months to meet him to get farted on. Some even collect his farts in containers. Pastor Penelope reacted to criticism and said, "I don’t fart on people – I heal people."
A volunteer worker at the Keelung Museum ruined a contemporary art piece after mistaking it for a dirty mirror.

A man had climbed behind the wheel of a city bus after the driver stepped out to use the toilet and took passengers on a nighttime joyride through the city making stops, letting riders on and off, and even made someone with an expired bus pass put money in the fare box.
For a few minutes, everything seemed normal on board and passengers didn’t seem to notice. Police said “He was following the rules of the road. He was making the scheduled stops along the way and letting people come and go. It’s not like he was threatening in nature or holding them there."
“It was when the bus started going off the designated route — it was his own personalized route, he was going down side streets — some passengers noticed. Once they noticed that, they engaged in a conversation with him. One witness was saying that they were giving him directions.
“But when he did come to stops, he would make the stop, open the door and let people on or off. And he stopped somebody who was looking to use a Presto card that was expired. He actually charged them money and made them put it in the machine and they got on for their ride.”
A family in London is offering £180,000 (~$235,000 USD) per year for a private tutor to teach their one-year-old son to become an “English gentleman.”
The unusual listing, was posted through Tutors International and calls for “an extraordinary and experienced tutor” to guide the baby “on his first steps to becoming an English gentleman.”
According to Tutors International founder, the parents want to avoid what they describe as “cultural bias,” everyday habits, speech patterns, and behaviors they believe their older child picked up before formal education began.
They're ideally looking for someone who attended elite schools and can influence the child “via osmosis.” Applicants are also expected to have interests in horse riding, skiing, art, and music, and to ensure the child is “pony riding and picking up an instrument by age three.” The family told the agency that “cost is not relevant” in their pursuit of British refinement.
In the late 1980s, Mike Tyson offered a zookeeper $10,000 to open the gate to the gorilla exhibit so Mike could go in and fight a silverback gorilla that was bullying the others.
Mike later admitted in an interview, “When we got to the gorilla cage there was one big silverback gorilla there just bullying all the other gorillas. They were so powerful but their eyes were like an innocent infant. I offered the attendant $10,000 to open the cage and let me smash that silverback’s snot box. He declined.”
North Korean soldiers deployed in Russia have reportedly accessed the unrestricted internet for the first time, with many using this newfound freedom to view adult only content, according to Financial Times journalist Gideon Rachman.
"A usually reliable source tells me that the North Korean soldiers who have deployed to Russia have never had unfettered access to the internet before. As a result, they are gorging on [adult content]" Rachman said.
A Texas woman with dreams of becoming a social media influencer was sentenced to 35 years in prison after stealing $1.2M from her employer and spending $900,000 of it on TikTok gifts.
Prosecutors say Staci Blackmon was using the money to tip social media influencers on live streams in hopes of building her own following.
Blackmon's employer ultimately caught on to the theft, which led the company down a rabbit hole, realizing the theft had been going on for several years.
The CopenHill powerplant is the world's largest waste-to-energy facility but doubles as an entertainment destination.
During the warm summer months, the rooftop acts as a full-blown activity park that provides visitors with hiking trails, playgrounds, fitness equipment, trail running, climbing walls, and spectacular views of the city. In winter, it offers 1,640 feet (500 meters) of ski slopes, complete with a ski lift system. The slopes run from the top of the 90-metre-high building to its base, with a 180-degree turn halfway down the piste.
Australian skateboarding gold medalist, Arisa Trew, is only 14-years-old, but she had some incentive to bringing home the gold medal. Her parents promised her a pet if she won. And she chose a duck.
Trew said "They are really cute, then I can take it on walks and take it to the skate park … I don’t know, I just want a duck.”
