-Headline of the Day-
"Burning chilli sparks terror fear." Cops and firefighters were called to central London after locals called in what they thought might be a terrorist chemical attack. "I was sitting in the office when me and my chief start coughing and I said this was something really dodgy," said turkish journalist Alpaslan Duven. "I looked out of the window and saw people rushing and then we heard the sirens."

Firefighters broke down a door at a Thai restaurant "where they discovered the source - a 9lb pot of chillies." The weird thing is that the restaurant was preparing Nam Prik Pao, a chili dip using deliberately burned peppers -- so you'd assume that the smell and ensuing watery eyes were nothing new.
