Three women 'forced hitchhiker to have sex with them in order to harvest his sperm'
Three female 'sperm collectors' are being hunted by police after they picked up a hitchhicker and raped him in order to 'harvest' his sperm, police said.
The women, believed to be driving a white Toyota Cresta, offered their target a lift along a main road in the city of Bulawayo, in the southwest of Zimbabwe.
But the man told police instead of dropping him off at his destination, they forced him to have sex with them before dumping him and making off with his semen.
Bulawayo police spokesperson Inspector Precious Simango told The Chronicle they picked up the man at an illegal hiking point on 6th Avenue in the city.

Stripper Leaves Her 2-Year-Old Alone At Home To Die In NY Fire
A stripper by the name of Leila Aquino left her two-year-old daughter home alone during the middle of the night to go “work” an afties spot in New York. At around 7AM, a fire started in her building and her daughter, Kaleenah Muldrow, unfortunately lost her life. The fire department found the little girl under the bed, as it appears she was trying to hide from the flames of the burning fire.
Leila came home at around 9AM to realize there was a fire in her building along with the fact her toddler was no longer alive. She had told authorities (and her baby father) that she had a sitter watching her daughter. However, police questioned the baby sitter about it, and she had informed them that she stopped working for Aquino months prior due to the fact she wouldn’t pay her.
Charges Against Brooklyn Gang Rape Suspects Dropped After Victim Admits Having Sex With Her Father
Earlier this year we reported five Brooklyn teens were arrested and charged with the gang rape of an 18 year-old girl at a Brownsville Park. The victim reported that while out for a walk with her father; Denzel Murray, 14; Shaquell Cooper, 15; Ethan Phillip, 15; Onandi Brown, 17, and Travis Beckford, 17, held them at gunpoint and raped her. The teens were charged, as adults, with one count of rape and sex abuse, and two counts of committing a criminal sex act. The victim has since recanted her story and now claims that not only did the group of teens not have a gun, they walked upon her while she was having sexual relations with her father.
According to Brooklyn DA Ken Thompson, “The complainant has recanted her allegations of forcible sexual assault and the existence of a gun, and she does not wish to pursue criminal charges against any of the defendants. She also refuses to cooperate with any prosecution against her father, who was engaging in sexual conduct with her.”
32 things you should never say to your boss
Honesty is the best policy in the workplace — but like any rule, this one has a few exceptions.
"It's important to be cautious with what you say to your boss, as even the slightest slip up could make or break your career," says Ryan Kahn, a career coach, founder ofThe Hired Group, and author of "Hired! The Guide for the Recent Grad."
"There are the obvious things to hold back from saying to your boss, but the key is to dissect the little things in your interactions."
Lynn Taylor, a national workplace expert and the author of "Tame Your Terrible Office Tyrant: How to Manage Childish Boss Behavior and Thrive in Your Job," agrees. "There are certain comments and questions based on negative perspectives that can set you back with your boss," she says. "If they continue unabated, these phrases can sabotage an otherwise great job."
A good practice is to first pause before blurting out something you might regret and examine what you're trying to achieve, and the likely reaction you'll get from your boss.

94-year-old who served behind Nazi lines reveals the most terrifying thing he experienced
A 94-year-old World War II veteran held a Reddit AMA, with the help of his grandson, in which he provides a startling look at his time serving behind Nazi lines as an intelligence staff sergeant.
John Cardinalli, who was sworn to secrecy for 65 years following the end of World War II, has taken to Reddit to explain his time with the US Office of Strategic Services. The OSS was the forerunner of the CIA, and it was dedicated to coordinating espionage and intelligence gathering behind enemy lines during WWII.
Cardinalli was unable to tell his story until the FBI and CIA declassified his mission in 2008. Now, realizing the historical importance of his role, Cardinalli has written the book "65 Years of Secrecy" about his roles during the war.
Pregnant secretary of Pope Francis found dead in her Rome apartment
The Pope's pregnant receptionist has been found dead in her apartment on the outskirts of the city.
Miriam Wuolou, a 34-year-old of Eritrean origin, was seven-months pregnant when her body was discovered.
She had worked at Pope Francis' home and a priests' guesthouse called Santa Marta for years.
The Italian press reports she worked as a kind of gatekeeper for the Pontiff, as well as for the bishops and cardinals who stay there.
The Pope opted to live at the Santa Marta guesthouse after his appointment in 2013, rejecting the grand papal apartments because he found them too sumptuous and he feared isolation.

FLOYD MAYWEATHER 'MONEY TEAM' IN SERIOUS CAR WRECK
Floyd Mayweather's entourage, The Money Team, got into a major accident on an L.A. freeway ... critically injuring one member of Floyd's crew ... 3m360 has learned.
The crash happened Tuesday night on the 10 freeway -- 3 TMT vans were rolling eastbound when one of them smashed into an 18-wheeler. Sources on the scene tell us one passenger in the van, not the driver, was hurt so badly he could lose an eye.
You can see in the video, the front left side of the van sustained major damage.
We're told Floyd was in the second vehicle in the caravan which was not involved in the accident. It's unclear if the driver of the truck was injured.
Today is Floyd's 39th birthday. He'd flown into LAX Tuesday, and was rolling back to Las Vegas when the accident happened.

Jose Mourinho vs Ryan Giggs: Manchester United fans vote for who they want as their next manager
Manchester United's supporters have voted overwhelmingly in favour of Jose Mourinho becoming the club's next manager ahead of Ryan Giggs, the Manchester Evening News report.
Louis van Gaal is expected to leave the club at the end of the season - 12 months before his three-year contract at Old Trafford ends.
Mourinho and Giggs are the two most likely candidates to replace him, with Ed Woodward keen on appointing Mourinho, and Sir Bobby Charlton and Sir Alex Ferguson in favour of Giggs.
The knights, though, are in the minority. On the Red Issue, United We Stand and Red News fanzine websites, Giggs has scored incredibly low with supporters in 'next manager' polls.

Robotic third arm turns musician into cyborg drummer
After an accident fused a quartet of robotic limbs to his body, nuclear physicist Dr. Otto Octavius devoted himself to a life of crime and fighting Spider-Man. However, villainy isn't the only option for people either blessed or cured with extra mechanical appendages—they can also choose to rock.
Researchers at Georgia Tech's Center for Music Technology have created a robotic arm that attaches to a drummer's body and improvises drum parts based on what the human drummer is playing.
Gil Weinberg, the director of the Center for Music Technology, says in a video about the project that music is an ideal challenge for researchers working in the area of integrating robotic limbs into human movement. “Music is something that is very timely," said Weinberg, who also led the project. "You really need to do things on the right millisecond. It's also very spacial. You need to go to the right places.
This lightweight robotic exoskeleton is getting paralyzed people on their feet once again
"I am not the robot, I wear the robot," Steven Sanchez said of the Phoenix robotic exoskeleton that is helping paralyzed people walk again. The Phoenix, developed by SuitX, is a modular robotic device that enables people with limited mobility walk with the fluidity of natural movement.
Sanchez, now 28-years-old, was paralyzed 11 years ago in a BMX accident. He was casually playing around with fellow high schoolers on his bike when an accident left him immobile from the waist down.
For the last four years he's been working with SuitX on the development, design, and technical execution of the lightweight machinery that's helped him regain mobility. Sanchez, a machinist by trade, is one of the first people in the world to walk with the Phoenix skeleton equipped.
