A Coke and a Smile

Coca-Cola plus Mestos equals a fizzy fountain. Students at China's Chenchung University took advantage of this fact to win a place in history via Guinness World Records. 2,175 students from the University, dressed in raincoats, assembled on the schools basketball court and waited patiently while a countdown timed the event. When the buzzer sounded they dropped the candies into their sodas filling the air with thousands of sticky geysers. The previous record of 1,911 simultaneous geysers was set by students of the School of Business Administration in Turiba, Latvia, in 2008.

Zhang Bofa, vice dean of the university's tourism school, said a lot of preparation went into the successful record bid.

"We tested two ways of putting in the mint candies. One was to drop them through paper pipes and the other was to use skewers. After numerous tests, we chose the latter," he said.

"We ordered 2,450 packs of sweets from a local supermarket, and the day before the event, we had to unwrap them all, put them on skewers and then wrap them again to stop them melting in the heat."

Saudi Arabia Wants to put Breast Milk on the Menu

Saudi Clerics say it's indecent for women to spend time alone with men they are not related to. Which is problematic for women who work. The solution, breast milk for everybody. The idea is that once a man has been refreshed by a woman's milk he is as good as related, problem solved. All that's left to decide is how the milk should be drank. Some supporters of the plan say it should be pumped into a glass and consumed from there. Other experts in Islamic law say that for decency sake the milk must be suckled directly from the breast. The debate rages on, but one thing the men are not disputing is that drinking from a woman's breast is a good idea. Read all about it
