4 tunnels found under Mexico-Ariz. border


Mexican agents found four tunnels under the Mexico-Arizona border that were presumably used to transport drugs or migrants into the United States, officials said Monday.

The tunnels were found Saturday by Mexican agents patrolling near the border city of Nogales, federal investigators said. The agents entered a drainage canal as part of their patrol and found a door at the border that led to four separate tunnels, each about 1 yard in diameter.

Penis sizes of world religious figures


Founding a major world religion can be difficult. But it has its perks, chief among them the groupies. Even rock musicians can't moisten the ladies' laps like someone who promises to plow them with the ol' God Rod. But Prophets tend to be arrogant and self-absorbed, and when they've finished using the bodies of their willing female supplicants, they toss them in the garbage like a half-eaten tray of fish 'n' chips. But now the God Groupies are having their revenge. A website called messiahs-exes.com is run by and dedicated to the women who've been used and then cast aside by Prophets of the Lord.

RIAA to release worm


Several months ago, GOBBLES Security was recruited by the RIAA to invent, create, and finally deploy the future of antipiracy tools. We focused on creating virii/worm hybrids to infect and spread over p2p nets. Until we became RIAA contracters, the best they could do was to passively monitor traffic. Our contributions to the RIAA have given them the power to actively control the majority of hosts using these networks. During our research, we auditted and developed our hydra for the following media tools:

mplayer (www.mplayerhq.org) WinAMP (www.winamp.com) Windows Media Player (www.microsoft.com) xine (xine.sourceforge.net) mpg123 (www.mpg123.de) xmms (www.xmms.org)
