Has anyone tried this Randonautica app? 

 

What Is Randonautica Really About?

 

 

Quote

 

The app led one person to a friendly dog in the desert and another to a field of wildflowers. One young woman, after making her college decision, followed the app to a field where her school’s initials had been mowed into the grass.

 

And then there were the friends who followed the app to a suitcase full of human remains.

Ugh. Black licorice is NASTY

 

 

Too much candy: Man dies from eating bags of black licorice

 

Quote

 

A Massachusetts construction worker’s love of black licorice wound up costing him his life. Eating a bag and a half every day for a few weeks threw his nutrients out of whack and caused the 54-year-old man’s heart to stop, doctors reported Wednesday.

 

“Even a small amount of licorice you eat can increase your blood pressure a little bit,” said Dr. Neel Butala, a cardiologist at Massachusetts General Hospital who described the case in the New England Journal of Medicine.

 

The problem is glycyrrhizic acid, found in black licorice and in many other foods and dietary supplements containing licorice root extract. It can cause dangerously low potassium and imbalances in other minerals called electrolytes.

 

Eating as little as 2 ounces of black licorice a day for two weeks could cause a heart rhythm problem, especially for folks over 40, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration warns.

Local (for me and JJ) story on Dateline tonight:

 

DATELINE NBC PROFILING FORT COLLINS CASE THURSDAY

 

Quote

 

Dateline NBC is profiling a Fort Collins case on Thursday (Sept. 24).

 

The show investigated a horrific 2013 sexual assault, where a woman was found screaming and bound with red duct tape in Cottonwood Glen Park.

 

The case took four years to get an arrest when a DNA profile of the suspect matched an individual.
