(ABC) - man found asleep in a motorized wheelchair on a highway in northern Australia was charged with drunk driving, police said Monday.

Officers in a patrol car noticed the man slumped in the stationary chair about 10 a.m. Friday on an exit lane near the tourist city of Cairns, regional traffic Inspector Bob Waters said. Cars were swerving to get around him, Waters said.

The officers breath-tested the 64-year-old man, who registered a blood alcohol reading of 0.301 — more than six times the legal driving limit. He was charged with operating a vehicle while drunk and ordered to report to court on July 7, where he faces a stiff fine if convicted. 

"The vehicles that we normally hear about with drink driving are the family car, the truck, the motorbike," Waters said. "But there are also other classes of vehicles that are subject to drink-driving laws," including horses, bicycles, and motorized wheelchairs.

We all get a little worried when we get our food and the order is wrong.  We struggle with ourselves wether or not we should send it back. This might make you think twice.

A cook pleaded guilty to a food-tampering charge after putting hair into a unsatisfied customer’s steak. Kropp was charged in Washington County Circuit Court with a felony of placing foreign objects in edibles, carrying up to 3 1/2 years in prison.

According to the complaint, a second kitchen worker told police Kropp had put a slit in the cooked steak and pushed something inside, then stated, "These are my pubes," referring to pubic hair.

Art major Aliza Shvarts artificially inseminated herself just to giver herself an abortion.  She is calling it Art.

From Yale Daily News

Beginning next Tuesday, Shvarts will be displaying her senior art project, a documentation of a nine-month process during which she artificially inseminated herself "as often as possible" while periodically taking abortifacient drugs to induce miscarriages. Her exhibition will feature video recordings of these forced miscarriages as well as preserved collections of the blood from the process.

The goal in creating the art exhibition, Shvarts said, was to spark conversation and debate on the relationship between art and the human body. But her project has already provoked more than just debate, inciting, for instance, outcry at a forum for fellow senior art majors held last week. And when told about Shvarts’ project, students on both ends of the abortion debate have expressed shock . saying the project does everything from violate moral code to trivialize abortion.

But Shvarts insists her concept was not designed for "shock value."

Police in Utah are looking for three men who were involved in cooking human feces in a convenience store microwave oven.
Police say one of the men placed a one gallon plastic bag with human feces inside of it inside the oven and set the timer for ten minutes.
They say it happened on March 23rd at approximately 10:45 p.m. at the 7-11 at 2175 East 9400 South.
The men left the area, and after the bag exploded, it ruined the microwave costing approximately $3500.00 in damage. The store had to be aired out for a long period of time, causing lost profits.
Police released surveillance photos of the crime in hopes the suspects can be identified.
