about the world's hotter chle pepper: the bhut jolokia, rated at over 1
million scoville units. ( href="http://www.chilepepperinstitute.org/holy_jolokia.php">Sauce

things: combatting terrorism.

deploys world's hottest chilli to fight terrorism


Bhut jolokia, or 'ghost chilli', to be used for teargas-like
grenades to immobilise suspects, defence officials say



style="margin: 0px 0px 13px; padding: 0px; border-collapse: collapse; font-family: arial,sans-serif;">Ever
since the Trojan Horse - and probably long before - men have bent their
minds to developing the ultimate secret weapon. Now, at last, the
Indian army just might have discovered it: the world's hottest chilli
pepper.

style="margin: 0px 0px 13px; padding: 0px; border-collapse: collapse; font-family: arial,sans-serif;">The
Indian army believes that the pungency of its ground seeds of the bhut
jolokia - a capsicum hybrid, growing around the banks of the
Brahmaputra river, that is reputed to be 100 times hotter than a
jalapeño - could be harnessed in smoke grenades against rioters or to
flush out terrorists in confined spaces...







These peppers are two orders of magnitude hotter than the
 jalapeño.  Mother nature always wins, in the end.

These peppers are two orders of magnitude hotter than the jalapeño.

Which makes them only about three orders of magnitude hotter than a bell pepper. I know, I know -- the jalapeño is well-known so they don't have much choice about using it but it's one wimpy capsicum critter.

And worse yet, it tastes bad. If you want some mild chiles give me a Big Jim or a poblano or some nice fresh serranos or ...

I'd have said about twice as hot as a habanero, but most people don't know about those. For those of us that do, that really puts it in perspective. That's one scary pepper!

Pam mae pobl yn newynu i farwolaeth mewn byd sy'n cynhyrchu mwy o fwyd nag y mae'n ei angen? Ar dudalen we ei ddweud ei fod yn ganlyniad i logisteg o symud yr bwyd. Rwy'n dweud, mae'n fwy i'w wneud ag elw na diffyg y gallu i symud yr bwyd i lle mae ei angen. Hefyd, mae rhai gwledydd y trydydd byd yn allforio bwyd sydd eu hangen arnynt er mwyn iddynt gael arian ar gyfer pethau eraill.

An elderly couple were having dinner one evening when the husband reached across the table, took his wifeâs hand in his and said , âClara, soon we
will be married 50 years and thereâs something I have to know. In all of these 50 years, have you ever been unfaithful to me?â
Clara replied, âWell, Paul, I have to be honest with you. Yes, Iâve been unfaithful to you three times during these 50 years, but always for a good reason.â
Paul was obviously hurt by his wifeâs confession, but said, âI never suspected. Can you tell me what you mean by âgood reasons?â
Clara said, âThe first time was shortly after we were married, and we were about to lose our little house because we couldnât pay the mortgage. Do you remember that one evening I went to see the banker and the next day he notified you that the loan would be extended?â
Paul recalled the visit to the banker and said, âI can forgive you for that. You saved our home, but what about the second time?â
Clara asked, âAnd do you remember when you were so sick, but we didnât have the money to pay for the heart surgery you needed? Well, I went to see your doctor one night and, if you recall, he did the surgery at no charge.â
âI recall that,â said Paul. âAnd you did it to save my life, so of course I can forgive you for that. Now tell me about the third time.â
âAll right,â Clara said. âSo do you remember when you ran for president of your golf club, and you needed 73 more votes?â

Doctor Dave had slept with one of his patients and felt guilty all day long.

No matter how much he tried to forget about it, he couldn't.

The guilt and sense of betrayal was overwhelming. But every once in a while he'd hear an internal, reassuring voice that said:

"Dave, don't worry about it. You aren't the first doctor to sleep with one of their patients and you won't be the last. And you're single. Just let it go.."

But invariably the other voice would bring him back to reality, whispering:

"Dave you're a vet."

Hi, I just thought I would let you know I think the subject matter you tackled here was a little ambitious. Next time why don't you stick to mildly amusing, like always.

This powerful little legend should stand the test of time, it should go down in history it's such a good read. It's so commanding and striking I think people will sing songs and write poems about it in the future.

I took a razor blade to your poem and made it very respectable. Well it needed to be in the kind of region we would be visiting!

Alf was part of the high wire act of the circus, he had just set off walking the tight rope when he was handed a Bomb! Alf was not the best of the troup at tight rope walking but when a man on the trapeze swung down and handed him a bomb he thought his legs were turning to jelly. He dared to look down and seen there was no net, this was getting worse. Alf somhow got to the other side and collapsed before being told the bomb was a fake. Oh well thats all right then said alf.
