NEW DELHI (AP) — Indian police cleared a suspected Chinese spy pigeon after eight months’ detention and released it into the wild Tuesday, news agency Press Trust of India reported.

The pigeon’s ordeal began in May when it was captured near a port in Mumbai with two rings tied to its legs, carrying words that looked like Chinese. Police suspected it was involved in espionage and took it in, later sending it to Mumbai’s Bai Sakarbai Dinshaw Petit Hospital for Animals.

Eventually, it turned out the pigeon was an open-water racing bird from Taiwan that had escaped and made its way to India. With police permission, the bird was transferred to the Bombay Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, whose doctors set it free on Tuesday.

'In cases where not all substances are burned, they will be expelled as water, the official said.' Not the least of the stupidities contained in the article.

What a load of b*ll*cks!

Michigan transgender Muslim woman loses case against ex who she sued for throwing out jar of her former pair of testicles that she kept in the FRIDGE

"A transgender Muslim woman is suing her ex-boyfriend for throwing out her surgically removed testicles, which she left rotting in his fridge.

On Wednesday, a district judge in Pontiac, Michigan, denied small claims petitions from a pair for former lovers who were battling each other in court.

The claims centered around the testicles of Brianna Kingsley, also known as Zahrah Bri-Zee Muharib, who identifies as a Muslim woman.

Kingsley, a transgender woman, has claimed that her ex-boyfriend, William Wojciechowski, 'retains possession of my surgically extracted testicles, preserved in (a) Mason jar, kept in (the) fridge next to the eggs' and demanded the 'immediate return of my human remains specimen and damages of $6,500.'

Judge Jeremy Bowie ruled 'it's a wash' after hearing a testimony from Kingsley, 40, and Wojciechowski, 37, in regard to the testicle drama."

Rams testicles are compressed and then pickled - delicious! Photo: Iceland Monitor/Heiðar Kristjánsson

When I was a kid I loved pickled rams testicles so much that I spent my weekly allowance on that instead of candy. After all, this is food only available during þorri, you have to grab the testicles when you have the chance!
