THE PIGEON MISSION

UK experts seek breakers that can translate the contents of a coded message found in the paw skeleton of a homing pigeon killed 70 years ago during the Second World War.

According to the "BBC", a chimney sweep found the corpse of a dove when a chimney cleaned in Surrey (southeast England) with a holster attached to a red paw. Inside was a piece of rolled paper with the inscription "service Pombo" with 27 blocks of letters written by hand.

The codebreakers of the Government Communications Headquarters (CGHQ) - a center ultrasecret eavesdropping and interception British very successful in the secret war against the Nazis - had to recognize that their computers were unable to decipher the contents.

"This type of messages used in operations were designed so that only the sender and receiver could decipher them," said Tony, a historian who asked that only his name was revealed.

About 250,000 carrier pigeons were used during the Second World War, in particular to transmit information between the continent and Britain occupied.

Now the hope is that there is some decipherer still alive who can solve the puzzle.

KILLER MAD CHAMELEON!!!

BREAST MILK ICE CREAM IS FORBIDDEN

Local British councillors have reported that they have seized ice cream made from the breast milk of human beings that had been placed on sale in a shop located in London, England, United Kingdom. Officials cited concerns relating to health and safety.

A Westminster City Council spokeswoman explained that two complaints made by members of the public were being replied to by the council. The Icecreamists, the marketing company involved with the dessert known as 'Baby Gaga', are fully co-operating with officials who are carrying out tests that are currently ongoing. According to Brian Connell, an individual from the council, "[s]elling foodstuffs made from another person's bodily fluids can lead to viruses being passed on and, in this case, potentially hepatitis."

A serving of the ice cream is valued at £14 (US$22.76, €16.49) and is provided in a martini glass. The item became available to purchase during the last week and quickly increased in popularity; within days, the first shipment was sold out.

The breast milk was donated by fifteen women who responded to an online advertisement located on a forum aimed at mothers. According to the company, all milk is screened for the "highest and safest" standards before it is pasteurized and prepared for human consumption. It is then mixed with the zest of lemons and vanilla seed cases.

Matt O'Connor, who founded the Icecreamists, stated: "As far as we are aware there is no law prohibiting a business from selling breast milk ice cream". He claimed that "[i]f it's good enough for our children, it's good enough for the rest of us" and "[s]ome people will hear about it and go yuck - but actually it's pure organic, free-range and totally natural." Brian Connell, a member of the the Conservative Party in the UK, believes that "[a]s the local authority we will support small businesses and applaud innovative ideas wherever possible, but must protect the health of consumers."

The crisis affects supply of toilet paper in the United States

Toilet paper supplies in Trenton, the capital of the US state of New Jersey, may run out by week's end following their city council's dispute over budgets.

The council has declined to sign a contract for paper products worth $42,573 after falling out over a $4,000 charge for paper cups.

Lauren Ira, a spokeswoman for Mayor Tony Mack, said that while the money has been made available to purchase the tissue, the Council is unwilling to sign the contract. The decision means that buildings such as Trenton City Hall may run out of toilet paper by Friday.

Former police officer George Muschal, now Trenton's South Ward Councilman, spoke of the decision in an interview with Bloomsberg. He said the Council was not willing to bow to Mack's order for paper cups, designed to carry hot beverages. He cited reports that the extreme nature of the order was down to fears some cups would be "stolen" for home use. He told the website: "We're the checks and balances over the administration, and we're not going to send out any blank checks."

The rejected contract for paper products is part of a $182.6 million budget laid out by Mack in November. The budget has yet to be adopted due to arguments over its viability; if agreed, it will go into place on July 1, the start of the new fiscal year.
