Dumb Burglar Stuck in Chimney.

Posted by Alex in Crime & Law on February 5, 2006 at 10:58 pm

If you’re trying to break into a convenience store, don’t go through the ceiling:

"We all think back to Christmas and Santa Claus coming down the chimney. It doesn’t work that way," said Assistant Chief Greg Hoggart, Orlando Fire Department. The man may be thinner than Santa Claus, though he’s not quite as skillful.

The suspect was identified as 37-year-old Lonnie Shields. Firefighters think he may have been stuck for six hours. He’s being treated for minor injuries at Orlando Regional Medical Center, after which he’ll be charged with commercial burglary.

We Don’t All See The Same Color.

Posted by Alex in Pictures, Science & Tech on February 5, 2006 at 2:01 am

Do we see colors the same way? Maybe not, according to this science report:

Debi Roberson of the University of Essex in Colchester, U.K., and colleagues studied a Southern African tribal community whose members, she reported, viewed colors quite differently from English speakers. They gave the same name to blue and green, for example.
