Michael Marin, Convicted Arsonist, Poisoned Himself In Courtroom, Investigators Believe

quote:

PHOENIX -- As the word "guilty" filled the silence of a Phoenix courtroom, defendant Michael Marin closed his eyes, put his head in his hands and appeared to put something in his mouth. He then took a swig from a sports bottle.

Minutes later, the 53-year-old Marin was dead.
...
Prosecutors said he torched his home when he couldn't keep up with the payments. Marin, an attorney and father of four, faced seven to 21 years in prison.
...
Marin, a former Wall Street trader, had summited Everest and wrote on his Facebook page that he had scaled six of the world's seven tallest mountains. He also was an art collector who had original Picassos.

Prosecutors painted him as a desperate man who had $50 in his bank account in July 2009, down from $900,000 a year earlier. He also had a monthly mortgage payment on the mansion of $17,250 and an upcoming balloon payment of $2.3 million.

Marin also owed $2,500 a month on a different home and owed $34,000 in taxes, prosecutors said.

On July 5, 2009, Marin told investigators that he escaped a blaze in his 10,000-sqaure-foot mansion in a posh part of Phoenix using a rope ladder and wearing scuba gear to avoid inhaling smoke.

HUGE PUBES A PLUS: Apr 30, 2005

On July 4, 2012 A single engine plane piloted by a team from Sweden left Lithuania airspace, flew into Belarusian airspace undetected and dropped several hundred teddy bears on a Belarusian town.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oPGmrFH-5no
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=btmb6CER6_s

Lithuanian defense confirmed on July 5 that Belarusian airspace was breached from Lithuania, but wouldn't comment what kind of airplane did the breaching. The Belarusian Defense ministry insists no such thing happened and the video was a clever photoshop.

The mayor of the town also made an official statement that no one dropped bears on the town. Some residents have come forward and said they did find bears.

The stunt was sponsored and payed for by /Studio Out, which has a reputation for staging hoaxes. They insist this time it wasn't a hoax and they spent about a million Kroner on the project that took a year of planning.

Whether it is true or not, Belarusians are laughing off the stunt and comparing it to German pilot Mathias Rust, the man who landed a plane in Red Square in 1987.

According to my father, that's like $10000 worth of silver and gold, so that's probably fake or being sold by an imbecile.

Eh, sort of? The Byzantines asked for help in pushing back the Turks after Manzikert, and things kinda spiraled out of control from there.

For Example, here are the crusaders attempting to convince the Byzantines to pay their cab fare to the holy land:

The retaking of territory lost to the Seljuks was basically left to Byzantium, though. The Crusaders were far more interested in conquering and dividing up the Levant. The Second and Third Crusades were dedicated to defending or retaking the conquests made in the First, the Fourth ended with Constantinople being sacked like you showed, and the remaining (numbered) Crusades were half-assed invasions that came to little.

These two contradict each other, the first one says (correctly, and surprisingly given the source) that Islamic fundamentalism isn't ancient, the second more or less explicitly says that modern fundamentalists are the same as the people who fought the Crusaders. A more sympathetic source might make the claim that they have the same motives in the sense that they're fighting a defensive battle against Western invaders but considering the fact that the guy who wrote it seems to think the Crusades were entirely defensive on the part of the Christians I highly doubt that's what he's trying to say.

Have some Varosha, Cyprus' "Forbidden Zone."

Formerly a Greek suburb of Famagusta, Varosha was abandoned in 1974 when Turkey invaded the island and forced the Greek residents out. Rumor has it there's a car dealership with 1974-era cars still in there. But you might get shot for trying to take a peek.

It's the Taliban. They don't want to acknowledge the existence of a female and a Jew being the person they're expected to talk to. So they make up a male-sounding name, close their eyes and think of ~~England~~ Allah.
