Tomatoes and Potatoes, Same Tree?

A unique plant that grows both tomatoes and potatoes is to be launched in Britain for the first time. Dubbed the “ketchup and chips tree”, the bizarre TomTato is aimed at families who have limited garden space and those living in flats.

And the wacky hybrid which has taken six years to perfect through hard graft, is expected to fly off shelves when it hits Morrisons stores on Monday.

The two-in-one which can grow to a metre high, has cherry tomatoes on top and white potatoes underground. Developed by Ipswich-based horticultural firm Thompson and Morgan, the plants are grown in the Netherlands for Morrisons. READ MORE:

Chobani CEO Gives Employees 10% of Company

Greek yogurt is known for being rich in flavor and protein. Now, some employees at Chobani could become rich themselves. On Tuesday, founder and CEO Hamdi Ulukaya announced that he would be giving all of his 2,000 full-time workers awards that could be worth up to 10 percent of the privately held company's future value if it becomes public or is sold. Each employee will be given "Chobani Shares" or award units, based on workers' tenure and role at the company, which could convert to cash or shares in the event of an initial public offering or a sale. The value of the awards are dependent on company performance, however, and have the potential to be worth nothing if the company doesn't meet performance metrics. The New York Times, which first reported the news, said that if Chobani was valued at $3 billion, the average employee payout could be $150,000, and some long-tenured employees could see windfalls possibly worth more than $1 million. (A Chobani spokesperson declined to confirm those amounts.)

Guinness World Record Broken By Aaron's

Who really needs words on this one, but here they are anyway. So.... A Guinness World Record was recently set and the video was released. It shows 1.200 people holding mattresses behind them and falling backward like a pack of lined up dominoes. Smashing into each other, one after the next, they created the longest mattress flop on Thursday in Maryland.

Of course they needed some assistance and who else better than a dominoes expert and certified by a Guinness World Record adjudicator. The previous record was 1,150.

The CEO of Aaron's pushed over the first vertical mattress and it was on from there. It may have taken 13 minutes and 38 seconds for all the kings men to fall, but it paid off.

Aaron's will be donating 1200 mattresses to Washington in an effort to aid in homelessness and ending poverty.

Way to Go Aaron's!!! Now, let's watch this human domino line.

California middle schooler found meth disguised as candy

IONE, Calif., April 6  -- A California middle-schooler found methamphetamine that looked like candy on school grounds, police said.

Chief Tracy Busby of the Ione Police Department said the boy found it at Ione Junior High and told school officials, who confiscated the drugs.

"We'll be working with the schools to see if we have any more of this activity," Busby said.

The candy looked just like hard-shelled tablet candies such as MM's or Sweet Tarts.

School officials the news the candy tested positive for methamphetamine and informed parents of the incident in a letter. I hope a blood test was implemented to make sure the children were okay. 

"It was scary to see that these drugs are masked as candy and could be passed off to any student as such," the principal and vice principal wrote in a statement. "It is worrisome that it can come in the forms of very popular types of snacks that we see sold daily. Even the packaging can be similar."

It's one thing to do drugs, it's another thing to take a chance with an unsuspecting child's life. Somethings just shouldn't be.
