Jesus lookalike banned from darts tournament for second year running because of crowd chants

Full Title: One hundred and deity - Jesus lookalike banned from darts tournament for second year running because of crowd chants 6 Dec 2013 00:00
Aussie Nathan Grindal said: “Two big beef-head security guards dragged me into an office... It’s not my fault that I look like Jesus”
_____________________________________________________
A hairy fan has been banned from returning to a darts competition – because he looks like Jesus.
Bearded Nathan Grindal was booted out of last year’s Cash Converters Players Championship after the 5,000-strong crowd saw him on the big screen and chanted “Jesus”.
The Messianic cries put Phil “The Power” Taylor off at the oche and Nathan, 34, was asked leave the event at Butlins in Minehead, Somerset.
But when he tried to return last week for this year’s tournament, security pounced on the scraggly-bearded arrows fan.
Aussie electrician Nathan said: “Two big beef-head security guards dragged me into an office and told me they wouldn’t let me watch the darts.
“I felt quite intimidated. The head of security told me they would not be letting me into the tournament as they didn’t want a repeat of last year.
“It’s not my fault that I look like Jesus.”
A miraculous comeback saw Michael van Gerwen claim the 2013 title, beating previous champ Taylor 11-7.
A Butlins spokesman said: “Based on his disruptive behaviour last year, both Butlins and the organisers, PDC Darts, took the decision not to allow Mr Grindal into the resort.”
The PDC refused to comment last night.

Woman glued to toilet seat at Home Depot
Commerce News Daily

A woman found herself in a sticky situation after going to the restroom at The Home Depot store at Banks Crossing last week.
Someone had apparently put glue on all of the toilet seats in the women’s restroom and she didn’t realize it until she became stuck on the seat. Emergency medical services personnel were called to the store to help remove the woman from the toilet seat, according to an incident report filed at the Banks County Sheriff’s Office.
The woman had to be taken to a Gainesville hospital for treatment.
The manger of the store found a brown paper sack in the restroom that contained a bottle of Loctite GO2 glue.
The manager also noted that all of the toilet seats had a glue-like substance on them. Three toilet seats were damaged with a total value of $60.

The Hazards of Psychic Backlash
...
Moving on to the 1990s, there is the very unsettling saga of Ray Boeche, an Anglican priest and a former state-director for MUFON, the Mutual UFO Network. In 1991, Boeche met (at Lincoln, Nebraska) with two US Department of Defense physicists working on a project to try and contact what were termed “Non-Human Entities,” or NHEs. While the initial assumption on the part of the DoD team-members was that the NHEs were extraterrestrial, that view soon changed. And radically so, too.
Eventually, the project personnel concluded that far from being the aliens they purported to be, the NHEs were demonic – as in literally demonic. In other words, the DoD team concluded that the UFO phenomenon itself was born out of satanic deception, rather than alien visitation.
When the DoD scientists immersed themselves in the world of the NHEs, bad things began to occur. As Boeche told me, regardless of how benevolent or beneficial any of the contact they had with these entities seemed to be, it always ended up being tainted, for lack of a better term, with something that ultimately turned out to be bad. There was ultimately nothing positive from the interaction with the NHEs. Indeed, certain experimentation reportedly ended in death for some of those involved in the program.

You have been warned. In the world of the paranormal, it’s wise to tread very, very carefully…

The priest learned of the theft and alerted police after he came out of the hypnosis-induced trance, ANSA said.

'Yes We Eat Grass and We're Proud of It,' Say Congregants

Full Title: 'Yes We Eat Grass and We're Proud of It,' Say Congregants Who Were Convinced by 'Miracle' Working Preacher
Pastor Puts People to Sleep and Says If Cops Come to Arrest Him He Can Make Them Sleep Too


_______________________________________________________ _________
Despite growing outrage over a popular "miracle" working South African pastor who convinced members of his church to eat grass, members who have followed his command say the grass has given them strength and healing.

"Yes, we eat grass and we're proud of it because it demonstrates that, with God's power, we can do anything," said 21-year-old law student Rosemary Phetha and member of Pastor Lesego Daniel's Rabboni Centre Ministries in South Africa in a Times Live report.

Phetha said for more than a year she struggled with a sore throat that only healed after Daniel "turned me into a sheep and instructed me to eat grass."

Another member, 27-year-old Doreen Kgatle, who suffered a stroke two years ago that left her unable to walk said the grass made her walk again.

"I could not walk but soon after eating the grass, as the pastor had ordered, I started gaining strength and an hour later I could walk again," said Kgatle.

Pastor Daniel, dubbed the "miracle man," has been attracting people from all over South Africa to his 1,000-member church by unleashing spellbind acts like commanding people to sleep and awake at will.

Birds of pray: Doves released in the Vatican as a gesture of peace are immediately ATTACKED…

Two white doves released by children standing alongside Pope Francis as a peace gesture today were attacked by other birds.
As tens of thousands of people watched in St. Peter’s Square, a seagull and a large black crow swept down on the doves right after they were set free from an open window of the Apostolic Palace.
One dove lost some feathers as it broke free from the gull. But the crow pecked repeatedly at the other dove. It was not clear what happened to the doves as they flew off. …

Spanish man dies while taking selfie on top of train
The Local (Spain) ^

A 21-year-old from southern Spain died on Saturday after being electrocuted when he climbed on to a train to take a photo of himself with friends.
The young man from the Andalusian town of Andújar suffered the fatal blow when he touched a high-voltage wire on a train he and his friends had assumed was not electrified.
They'd clambered on top of the parked wagon at Andújar train station to take a picture of themselves when they suffered the severe electric shock.
Spanish online daily Ideal reported that a 3,5000-volt discharge killed the young man as he went to take the photo.
Local paramedics and police rushed to the scene but found the 21-year-old was already dead.
One of his friends survived the shock but remains in a serious condition at the local Alto Guadalquivir Hospital.
Andújar's mayor has declared three days of mourning for the town of 40,000 people in the middle of olive growing country.

Police hunting 'mystery pooper' defecating on park slides
Ann Arbor News ^ |


Who has been defecating on children's slides in Ypsilanti’s Prospect Park for the past five to six months?
Ypsilanti police and city officials are hunting for the person officials have described as the “mystery pooper” as warmer weather approaches.
Officials have discovered feces on the slides so frequently that police installed a hidden camera to try to capture an image of the act.
Council Member Pete Murdock, who is also the head of the Friends of Prospect Park, described the act as “weird and deliberate.” He said he first received a call about the issue more than five months ago and the culprit struck as recently as early March.
Department of Public Works employees are supposed to be checking the slides daily and cleaning up any human waste, Murdock said, and the suspect appears to be using the slide only at night.
In January, Ypsilanti police Chief Tony DeGiusti sent a communication out to YPD officers about the incidents.
“We have a problem in Prospect Park with a miscreant that does not understand the difference between a children’s playground slide and a toilet,” the email stated. “Apparently this extremely misguided individual feels the need to defecate on the slide despite the cold weather. This has been an ongoing problem at this location. Please make frequent checks in the area and record them on your daily log.”
DeGiusti did not return calls from The Ann Arbor News and City Manager Ralph Lange declined to comment.
“We most definitely need to get this under control before school (recess) and park season starts,” Murdock said. “It’s hard to deal with because it’s so unbelievable to begin with. When somebody called me and told me what happened I said ‘What? You gotta be kidding me!”
Murdock said the Friends of the Prospect Park may stake out the park as temperatures warm and the nights grow shorter.
He said he has encouraged staff and residents to contact him every time defecation is discovered so he can determine if there’s a pattern in regards to a schedule.
“We need to get him or her and get them the help they need,” Murdock said.

Woman sued for $2 million after boyfriend torches squirrel on apartment deck, starts massive fire

HOLLAND TOWNSHIP, MI -- A woman who signed an apartment lease with her boyfriend and allegedly agreed to be liable for any smoke or water damage, faces a $2 million lawsuit after he attempted to cook a squirrel and started a massive fire with a torch.
...
Khek Chanthalavong told investigators the blaze started after he had been using a torch on the deck of a unit he shared with Barbara Pellow, to burn the fur off a squirrel he'd captured. Once the fur was removed, he placed the torch in the corner of their deck, next to a plastic plant holder. He then went inside to cook the rodent.
Pellow awoke to Chanthalavong yelling and throwing water on flames that were quickly growing on the deck. The fire spread and caused major damage to 32 units in the couple's building. Pellow told police she had no knowledge of the torch being used.

North Carolina man will spend all of eternity in a Duke's Mayonnaise jar
upi ^ |

BESSEMER CITY, N.C., A North Carolina man who never says “hold the mayo” will be held for all eternity in a Duke’s Mayonnaise jar when he dies.
Larry Clinton of Bessemer City has been searching for a suitable resting place for his cremated remains for over 20 years.
Thanks to his daughter, the 67-year-old now has a custom-made Duke's jar that has a label bearing his name.
Clinton’s daughter, Teresa Clinton-Edge, sent a letter the parent company of Duke’s to request a jar for her father’s remains.
“She sent a very nice letter saying her father had always loved Duke’s Mayo and included a funny story about her father being at a funeral and telling his wife ‘I’d like to get buried in a jar,’” C.F. Sauer executive vice president Mark Sauer told ABC News.
To Clinton-Edge’s surprise, the company was happy to oblige.
“They were custom all the way,” said Sauer. “We took the basis of the label and with the swirl on the bottom and put his name in there. His daughter said he was just delighted. I know it sounds -- well I don’t know how it sounds -- but you almost have to do this. It’s somebody’s last wish so it takes a couple of days and a few bucks from us.”
Clinton is happy to have the jar -- but he’s hoping he won’t have to use it anytime soon.
“My father eats Duke’s Mayonnaise on everything: peaches, pears, baloney sandwiches, banana sandwiches,” Clinton-Edge said. “He says he cannot remember a time that Duke’s wasn’t a part of his family and the food. I’m 43 and that’s the only mayo we’ve ever eaten.”
