quote:

Three people, including two children, have died after their throats were slit by glass-coated strings used for flying kites on India's Independence Day.

Saanchi Goyal, 3, and Harry, 4, were looking out through the sunroof of their cars in different parts of Delhi when sharp strings slit their throats. Zafar Khan, 22, died in the same manner when he was riding his motorbike. Glass-coated strings are used to bring down competitors' kites, but they also end up injuring and killing people. Many Indians fly kites to celebrate festivals and important occasions like the Independence Day, which is celebrated on 15 August. But every year, there are reports of people dying or getting wounded from the kite strings - locally known as manja - treated with powdered glass or metal to sharpen them.

My kite will gently caress your kite up... and your family members :shepface:

I actually watched a documentary on crash test dummies* last night and it is weeks of preparation for a 15 second crash which they analyze for weeks afterwards. I'm not sure if it's a great spectator event. You probably end up standing quite a distance away from the crash as a safety measure since you've got debris flying everywhere.

Stunt player Harry O'Connor was killed when he hit a pillar of the Palacky Bridge in Prague, para-sailing during one of the actions scenes.

The cinema I frequent recently installed these sink + hand dryer combos and they are not intuitive to use the first time around. It's no surprise there were instruction sheets on how to use them taped to the mirrors.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PkpP-mEUcAs

People have seem to gotten used to motion sensitive sinks in public places tho. If they don't have them, people sometimes leave the water running, simply because they are so used to them automatically stopping (or maybe they are just being dicks).

Are they still banning foreign cheese over shooting down that airliner? or am I misremembering.

I think the ban is still on. Two or three months ago I watched a short behind-the-news segment on Dutch television featuring a Russian farmer who had really benefited from the ban. But judging by posts in this thread his positive outlook might not make his cheese any better, lol

Dutch farmers who produced cheese had to up their security, because there were several mass cheese thefts in the year after the sanctions. I imagine the security up to the point was just lock and key, because cheese theft had never really been a thing over here. Although judging by Google search results it happens more often in regions that produce really fancy cheese.
