Apparently there is a guy in Germany who can fix the order that the balls come out of one of those lotto machine. Some lottery over there claimed that a live draw could never be fixed & this guy, who is some sort of street magician took them up on the claim and did it.
He used fine syringes to take out the air inside the 6 chosen balls and replace it with a heavier gas thus making those balls heavier. So when the machine was started up, these balls were the ones that fell down the chute for the chosen balls. To a spectator looking at it live, you could not tell it was fixed. And when the balls were forensically checked afterwards, all the balls were identical (in the past lotto fixers have used balls made of slightly heavier material or slightly bigger).

Conspiracy theory about a PC game. As is increasingly common these days (eg. movies and drama series), such PC games are an international effort, in this case a collaboration between Japanese and American authors, artists, programmers and producers. PC games these days are a far cry from the simplistic pac-man, eh?

Men with older brothers have an increased chance of being gay – and scientists now think they know why.
Researchers had previously observed that men with older brothers are more likely to be gay, but a paper published in the journal PNAS has suggested a biological medical explanation.
Previous research showed that for each older brother a man has, the chance he will be gay rises by roughly a third.

Singapore is actually doing Indonesia a favor by doing extra work managing the airspace above Riau islands on behalf of Indonesia. It's not that the Indonesian politicians are so stupid that they don't realize this, it's that Indonesian politicians are so deceitful that they want to manipulate the minds of the Indonesian voters by using Singapore as a scapegoat, similar to how Najib and UMNO uses Chinese and Indians as a scapegoat by deceitfully warning Malaysian voters with the lie : "If you vote for the opposition instead of UMNO, the Chinese and Indians will screw all us Malays and ban Islam, so you BETTER vote for UMNO if you're a good Malay and good Muslim!"

You know the link about loudly condemning and hypocrisy? Any society that is highly repressed socially will result in a psychological imbalance and consequent blowback. It's no coincidence the incidence of rapes and sex crimes are highest in repressed societies and countries. Egypt is ranked second in the world for internet searches on pornography, according to Google.

Yole is the LiHo equivalent, both being new local brands setup by the previous franchise license owners, who fell out with llaollao and GongCha respectively. The Yole owner may learn the hard way, just as the LiHo owner did, that it's not so easy starting out a new brand name from scratch.
