A
Portland man now faces felony criminal charges after police say he
created a homemade bomb containing dog feces and tricked a former
friend into setting it off. 48-year-old Robb Alexander Stout, 48,
placed the bomb into a plastic tool box and filled the box with dog
feces he’d collected from his dog and dogs that had defecated
around a courtyard. Police say he then set the toolbox up to explode
upon opening. Stout admitted to police that he had set up the device
because he was angry at his former friend for failing to return
something of his. One of the things he and his friend had liked to do
together was watch YouTube videos of people pulling pranks. Stout was
arraigned Friday in Multniomah County Circuit Court on a felony
charge of unlawfully manufacturing a destructive device. Police who
searched his home say they found methamphetamine and a sawed-off
shotgun -- leading to more charges.

FUN FACT FOR YOU:
Share this with your friends... they'll think you're really smart!
Hummingbirds Can Fly Backwards. As if these animals weren’t already cool enough—with their ability to beat their wings 80 times per second—they can also move forward and backward with the same speed and efficiency. Scientists studying the phenomenon filmed the fast birds as they moved toward a feed and the researchers blasted air, pushing it backwards and leading it to adjust its direction with ease.

An
Iowa man facing child porn charges was arrested after he brought a
“gravy covered computer” into Best Buy for repairs and a “Geek
Squad” member discovered illicit images on the machine.
Investigators
say 54-year-old Robert Leo Watson brought his laptop to a Best Buy
near his Des Moines home “because he had spilled gravy on the
keyboard rendering this device unusable.”
Watson,
purchased a replacement computer and “paid an additional fee to
have the files on his used gravy covered computer transferred to his
newly purchased computer,” as reported by a Des Moines Police
Department investigator.
During
the file migration, “Geek Squad” workers noticed “multiple
images being transferred that they believed contained child
pornography.” The Best Buy workers contacted cops, who seized both
computers as evidence.
