INSTANT KARMA: WALLET THIEF'S WALLET.... MISSING
An Idaho man suspected of stealing a wallet from the desk of
a prospective employer has been arrested after calling police to report that
his wallet was missing.
Boise police realized the man who reported the missing
wallet matched the description of the suspected wallet thief, so they arrested
the 25-year-old on suspicion of burglary and grand theft.
Police believe he tossed the stolen wallet, but used a
credit card to buy tobacco at two stores. It was when he was leaving the second
store that he thought he may have dropped his own wallet.
Police recovered the credit card and the stolen wallet.
Officers suspect someone else found his wallet. It has not
been recovered.
Mayan relic sold for $4 million is a fake?
MEXICO CITY (Reuters) – A sculpture of a Mayan warrior that
sold for more than $4 million at a Paris auction house this week is a fake,
Mexico's National Institute of Anthropology and History said.
The masked, stone figure, sold by a private collector, was
billed as an impressive piece of Pre-Columbian art and was believed to be a
unique work dating from around 550 to 950 A.D. It sold for 2.9 million euros
($4.1 million) on Monday.
But Mexican experts at the institute who studied the auction
catalog said the piece, a warrior holding a shield and weapon and wearing a
turban-like hat, had been made recently and was carefully carved to give an
ancient appearance. Another 66 pieces in the auction also were fakes, they
said.
"The figure tries to recreate the Pre-Columbian
features of the Maya region in southeastern Mexico but the height, the posture
of the flexed legs and the boot straps are not characteristic of this
culture," the institute said in a statement.
Mexico's Foreign Ministry said it had contacted the French
government prior to the auction to alert it to the fraud.

Botox to give her an edge in beauty pageants.

help her become a star." She's proud that she's one of the youngest people
in the world to get Botox.
Her daughter is so used to it she now looks for wrinkles and
