Top 4-Accused murderer created fake Facebook account to kidnap girl, stage fake rescue
Bad side of Facebook….
A Maine man accused of murdering a 15-year-old girl used a fake Facebook account to lure her from her home earlier this month with the intention of kidnapping her and then pretending to rescue her, a police affidavit says. Kyle Dube, 20, of Orono, has been charged with the kidnapping and murder of Nichole Cable. Her body was found in the woods May 20, a week after her mother reported her missing. Police arrested Dube May 21 after investigators said they connected him to a Facebook account with the name of Bryan Butterfield, according to a police affidavit unsealed by Judge William Anderson on Wednesday, the Kennebec Journal reports.
Police say the IP address involved in the Butterfield account originated from Dube's home where he lived with his parents. And the last four digits of the phone number used to disable the account matched Dube's cellphone number, the affidavit says. Cable had agreed to meet a boy she thought was named Butterfield near her home May 12, but instead she was met by a ski mask-clad Dube who duct-taped her and put her in his father's truck, the police document says.
Dube allegedly told his brother he planned to kidnap her and stage a fake rescue so he could be a hero. But, according to police, he told his brother that when he took her out of the truck she was dead. He then allegedly dumped her body in the woods and covered it with sticks, the affidavit says. Her cause of death is still under investigation.

Top 3-Anger over Starbucks toilet coffee
A STARBUCKS cafe in Hong Kong's posh financial district which used water from a tap near a urinal to brew coffee prompted a flood of angry reactions from customers. The coffee shop, in the famous Bank of China Tower, has been using the water from a tap in a toilet to make beverages since its opening in October 2011. Images from local newspaper Apple Daily on Thursday showed the tap with a sign that said "Starbucks only" a few metres away from a urinal in the dingy washroom, which the paper said was in the building's car park. "Totally disappointed! The initial decision by Starbucks to use water from toilet is a clear sign of your company's vision and the level of (dis) respect your company has for the health and mind of your customers." Kevin L wrote on the Starbucks Hong Kong Facebook wall. "I stick to my McCafe and the water is not from a toilet!" Cristiane Guimaraes commented on her Facebook wall.
The water was collected less than five times a day by staff from a tap in a toilet located near the store, Starbucks said, adding that it was dedicated for collecting drinking water. "There is no direct water supply to that particular store, that's why we need to obtain the drinking water from the nearest source in the building," Starbucks spokeswoman Wendy Pang said. The water from the toilet tap would go through a filtration system in the store ensuring it passed local and World Health Organisation standards, Pang said, adding the store is now using distilled water.The issue that is more worrying is ... the potential risk of transferring pathogens from the restroom environment into the Starbucks food preparation area," Hong Kong University School of Public Health associate professor Benjamin Cowling said.

Top 1- Bikini Teacher's PHOTOS Will Raise Funds For Oklahoma Tornado Victims
The former teacher who said she was forced to resign over one of her racy modeling photos is now using her newfound fame for a good cause. Olivia Sprauer, who models under the name Victoria James, was let go from Florida's Martin County High School last month. Her story made international headlines and now the 26-year-old former English teacher is putting together a pictorial of her most recent work. Sprauer told The Huffington Post she plans to donate a dollar from each pictorial sold between now and
June 7 to the Red Cross' Oklahoma tornado relief efforts. "We see a lot of the devastation on TV," Sprauer, a mother of two, said. "It's important for people in the public view to encourage other people to reach out and help people in a desperate and tragic situation." Sprauer's Internet fame has gained her many fans and some eyebrow-raising requests. "One guy wanted to buy my intimate apparel," Sprauer said. "Another guy asked If he could send me tickets so I could take my children to Disney World. I didn't ask for this, the guy just offered. I said, if he wanted to send them, he could.
Sprauer said she knows that, like all viral sensations, her time in the limelight will fade. But the aspiring author who said she'd like to get her P.H.D. in English is prepared for that eventuality."I'm just gonna keep doing what I'm doing," Sprauer said. "I'm gonna try to break into TV hosting or acting or both. The attention dying down, which it inevitably will, would just make things a little less facile."
