New Cocaine-based Drink Hits the Market
In Peru, a new drink called Kdrink has hit the market. It looks and tastes like bottle iced tea. The beverage hit Peruvian stores this year and uses a formula made from coca leaves, the base ingredient in cocaine.
Each bottle contains a trace of cocaine -- 0.6 milligrams. This trace carries less kick than a cup of coffee. With the exception of Coca-Cola, products using coca leaves are banned in most nations by U.S. and UN import regulations.

Finne zahlt für Pinkelpause 1.888 Euro
Für einen Finnen wird die Pinkelpause wohl etwas teuer. Ein Geschäftsmann hat sich vor einem Pub in der Stadt Tampere mitten auf der Straße von seinem Urin befreit. Die Polizei fand das gar nicht nett.
Normalerweise ist das Bußgeld bei solchen Delikten auf 20 Euro angesetzt. Da der 30-Jährige sich aber vor versammelter Menschenmenge entleerte, wurde er zu einer Geldstraße von 1.888 Euro verurteilt.

Google has written an API that allows us to query their search engine and analyze the results. The key indicator that we are using to process our statistics is Total Results. If you run a search on Google, you can easily see how the total results for any search is also a measure of the popularity of that term across the web.
We are using different formulations for the user-defined Google race and the predefined and analysed trends.
