Police nabbed two allotment thieves after victims viewed a bizarre identity parade of their stolen vegetables. Lawrence Miller, 44, and Steven Randall, 46, were found with bags of veg near the scene so officers lined up the produce and asked gardeners to identify it in Brampton, Cambs. Miller, of Brampton, and Randall, of nearby Eynesbury, admitted theft due to poverty. They were discharged but told to pay £20 compensation each. Urine may one day be used to power homes and even villages, instead of being flushed down the toilet. Scientists have created batteries filled with bacteria, which can generate electricity as wee flows through them. As we each pass 2.5 litres of urine a day and these cells can be stacked to make mini-power stations, it could be a viable biofuel, the Royal Society of Chemistry found.
