Maputo - A Mozambican man was arrested in the central province of Manica after he was found in possession of human flesh barely two weeks after he was released from prison where he served time for similar charges.
The daily Noticias reported on its Thursday online edition that the 24-year-old was arrested after he was found with parts of a recently buried corpse that he had exhumed from a grave at Nhamitchindo cemetery in Chimoio town's 7 April Township.
It was barely two weeks that he had been released from the Manica provincial prison after serving a prison term of two years for violating graves and allegedly consuming flesh from the corpses.
The paper said he told police officers on his arrest that he was unable to live without eating human flesh and that was why he had gone to the cemetery to dig out a recently buried corpse.
Pedro Gemusse, the provincial spokesperson of the national police service said the man was arrest by local people before he could consume the head of the corpse he had taken from the grave.
He was first arrested in 2005 after he was found with human flesh taken from a grave at his house in Chimoio town. He was also in possession of clothes he had taken from the corpse in the grave.
At that time he was only charged with violating a grave as Mozambican law does not have laws dealing specifically with that crime. - Sapa
Looks like another "Great Moment in the History of White Trash"...
An autopsy was planned Tuesday to determine what killed a Snellville man who died after being head-butted during a fight with a man with no arms. Ah think Ah kin take him, Orville...
No charges have been filed against the armless man. Well, he was unarmed...
Snellville police Chief Roy Whitehead said Charles Keith Teer and William Russell Redfren, who had been in an ongoing dispute over a woman, scuffled Monday afternoon in the driveway of a home on Pine Street in the Gwinnett County town. Well, ah's got more teeth then him, Britney!
But, Britney, he ain't got no arms!
Let's put down our beers n' settle it lahk men...somebody put mah beer down fer me.
"There was somebody between them trying to separate them and the fight occurred around the witness," Whitehead said. We tryed ta grab him by the arm, but...he ain't got any...
Whitehead said that according to witnesses, Redfren, who has no arms, kicked Teer, and Teer then struck Redfren. Bystanders got the two men separated, but Redfren "came back and head-butted [Teer] one time," Whitehead said. "That's what we understand at this point." Jeez, buddy. Seeing how the guy had no arms, it might've been smart to watch out for Ye Olde Headbutt.
After being head-butted, Teer complained of being dizzy, "and then he collapsed. He was dead on the scene," Whitehead said. His last thought: I just got beat to to death by a guy with no arms. How pathetic is that?
He said that after the fight, Redfren and the woman got into Redfren's truck and drove to the Snellville police station. Git in the truck, Britney...it ain't lahk I'm drivin.
"They were calling us," Whitehead said. "He was going to call to report the dispute, and then when [Teer] collapsed, they told 911 they needed EMS." How do you work a cellphone with no arms? And drive at the same time?
Please, I see that on the Chicago expressways every day ...
Whitehead said investigators were awaiting autopsy results before deciding on whether to file charges against Redfren. Duz ya still luv me, Britney!

Come up to Seattle sometime and watch all the Volvo / Beemer-drivin Barbies to that and more on I-5.
Hang up and drive, biatch.
A Bosnian couple are getting divorced after finding out they had been secretly chatting each other up online under fake names.
Sana Klaric, 27, and husband Adnan, 32, from Zenica, poured out their hearts to each other over their marriage troubles, and both felt they had found their real soul mate.
The couple met on an online chat forum while he was at work and she in an internet cafe, and started chatting under the names Sweetie and Prince of Joy.
They eventually decided to meet up - but there was no happy ending when they realised what had happened.
Now they are both filing for divorce - with each accusing the other of being unfaithful.
Sana said: "I thought I had found the love of my life. The way this Prince of Joy spoke to me, the things he wrote, the tenderness in every expression was something I had never had in my marriage.
"It was amazing, we seemed to be stuck in the same kind of miserable marriages - and how right that turned out to be.
"We arranged to meet outside a shop and both of us would be carrying a single rose so we would know the other.
"When I saw my husband there with the rose and it dawned on me what had happened I was shattered. I felt so betrayed. I was so angry."
Adnan said: "I was so happy to have found a woman who finally understood me. Then it turned out that I hadn't found anyone new at all.
"To be honest I still find it hard to believe that the person, Sweetie, who wrote such wonderful things to me on the internet, is actually the same woman I married and who has not said a nice word to me for years."

Government sponsored thugs. Wonder if this is the South African version of "war veterans". This sort of thievery will work until they make a move on De Beers at which point they and their government sponsors will wake up dead.

If the Afrikaners have any chutzpah left, they will quietly spring an organized massacre on the Zulus, leaving about a hundred dead where they shouldn't be.
Of course the government will go bananas, but after things settle down, there will be a lot fewer Zulus who try strong arm tactics for a long time.
Long-sleeved white coats, favoured by physicians for decades, are set to be banned under an NHS shake-up aimed at tackling hospital superbugs. Under a bare below the elbow dress-code unveiled by Health Secretary Alan Johnson, every doctor, nurse and therapist will also be banned from wearing watches, jewellery such as rings and bracelets, and neckties.
The aims is to stamp out deadly infections plaguing the NHS such as Clostridium difficile - C.Diff - and MRSA. The long-sleeved coats - already being phased out in many hospitals - will go because of the danger of the cuffs carrying bacteria to patients. Johnson said he was determined to ensure that patient safety remained the NHSs number one priority.
Todays package will ... set guidelines on clothing that will help ensure thorough hand-washing and prevent the spread of infections, he added.
Experts have said that up to two-thirds of doctors do not wash their hands properly.
Remind me again where the NHS is recruiting physicians from?
Isn't much better with native-born Americans, trust me.
Other rules, to be implemented by every NHS trust by the end of the year, include quarantining patients suffering from a superbug and giving nurses and matrons the right to report directly to hospital boards four times a year to ensure their efforts are not overlooked by managers. Health bosses will also face a legal obligation to detail any superbug outbreaks or face massive fines. The moves come after a report found British hospitals were among the worst in Europe for superbugs, behind countries such as Slovakia, Hungary, Poland and the Czech Republic.

Proper hand washing was one of the first major advances in surgical medicine. England has such a love of cameras, they should place them in washrooms to monitor the sinks. Any doctors caught not washing up once they enter the rest room are suspended without pay.
Considering that Muslims eschew toilet paper in favor of much closer manual contact after defecating, they should be among the most closely scrutinized for hand cleanliness. A program of random swabbing and culturing of hospital staff would go a long way towards halting this problem.

Muslim washing practises reveal the problem of binding religious principles being applied to modern professions. When licked by a dog, a Muslim must soak the spot with water, 7 times. There is absolutely no scientific basis for same, indicating that Muhammed concocted a false solution solely to advance his authority to resolve issues. As for washing arms rather than wearing lab coats, it makes sense. By the way, the correct means of washing involves use of each hand to completely cover both arms in sanitizing soap, and then thoroughly washing same. It only takes a couple of minutes.

We have small pumps at many locations around the hospitals and clinics that dispense the no-water-needed soap. We're supposed to use this in between seeing each patient. Gawd forbid they put cameras on those suckers because a LOT of my colleagues would flunk.

Eww, gross! Something unislamic about TP? Maybe they should just have a bucket full of rocks next to the toilets. Might drive the point home a bit better.

I hope no one will be unduly offended if I preface my remarks by noting that Zenster has strong opinions on Islam and that nothing I say should be taken as a general reflection on his veracity. But I would appreciate another source of confirmation of a point has been raised many times before. Given the patina of a scientific discussion in this topic, could someone else confirm the sinister hygienic practice suggested in comment 1 as being widely observed currently as opposed to an historic anachronism? In this country as well? Thank you.

Muslims regularly refuse to use the antimicrobial hand rinse at hospital entrances as it has an alcohol base. No one is asking them to drink the stuff but they consider it haram so they bring their germs with them everywhere they go.
As a couple of other people have mentioned, a lot of MDs would fail the hand-washing test. It is horrifying watching staff in my part of the hospital...

If you're going to dream of having nuclear weapons you better reform your toliet practices. The first thing a Nuclear Engineer is taught is to "wash your hands FIRST before you go take a pee".

The first thing arts majors were taught was, "Don't pee on your hands" LOL

NS: one of our 'Cultural Briefs' we had prior to a port call in any number of Muslim countries was that you never touched a Moslem with your Left Hand, as that was considered a huge insult, due to their hygenic practices..... And we were also briefed to bring our own TP.

Happy, Nimble Spemble? I read all of ed's link and it even exceeds what I had expected. There is prescribed direct manual contact with the anal orifice post-defecation andas is so often the case with Islameven the allowable amount of residual excrement that can remain after cleaning is specified.
This procedure creates a wealth of opportunities for lodging fecal matter beneath the fingernails, around the cuticles and transferring it to the metacarpal area where laving may not be so intensive. While I do not know what Islam prescribes as a correct length of nail plate extending beyond the nail bedand I'm sure there's a fatwah for that toonails would have to be trimmed clear back to the lunula to avoid any retention of fecal particles beneath them.
From what I see Temping on the Recycling round at the local "Modern" UK Hospital for the last six weeks is:
They have an MRSA section, but it's on a Need To Know basis.
All waste, clinical or other, goes up and comes down in the same lift system as the food.
Sharps stored in same areas as all other waste.
Anecdotal/.
A bed getting repaired in a corridor, a layer of dust covered with lint was exposed on the hydraulics underneath, not cleaned in about Lord knows how many years, if ever.
So, best answer they come up with last time, close Wards, that will stop risk of the Super-Bugs, for sure, when they all closed, they defeated the Super-Bugs, lol! Success!
Only now, when people objected to Maternity Wards and A&E being closed, are they approaching the problems that are there, having to think for their money. Problem is, it is not joined up thinking, and they too pc to have things like cams on alcohol hand-washes in and out of the wards, never mind scrub-rooms.
And, no, I do not want my health to depend on some Muslim, Doctor or otherwise, thanks.
BTW, I use that haram alcohol liquid soap on entering and leaving all areas where they provide it. I always let the 90 proof aroma wash over me. Beats a good Scotch.
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
