A British man posted more than 80 videos of himself committing minor crimes on YouTube. He has been called the “dumbest criminal” in Leeds, England.
Andrew Kellett, 23, had posted videos of himself and others taking drugs, racing cars at high speeds and trespassing.
He even filmed himself receiving a sentence in Leeds Magistrates’ Court in the northern English city.

Last month the court told him he can’t show himself breaking the law on the video-sharing Web site. The ruling will last at least until the middle of this month. Some of the videos were shown in court as part of the prosecution’s case.
“Kellett must be in the running to be Leeds’ dumbest criminal. He has handed us the evidence against him on a plate,” said Leeds councilor Les Carter.
“In the last three years, we have seen a 32 percent reduction in crime in Leeds. If more criminals were as [helpful], the city would be even safer,” he added.

英國一名男子把自己犯下八十多項輕罪的過程拍成影片，放上YouTube網站讓人瀏覽，此舉讓他被稱為英國利茲「最蠢的罪犯」。
二十三歲的安德魯．凱勒上傳的影片內容包括他和其他人吸毒、高速飆車及非法侵入的畫面。
他甚至自拍下他在英國北部利茲市治安法庭聽取判決的經過。
法院上個月要求他不得把自己犯法的影片放上影音分享網站；至少在本月中前，凱勒都必須遵守此裁決。他拍的部分影片被當成起訴的證物在法庭上播放。
利茲市市議員萊斯．卡特說：「凱勒肯定是利茲市最笨的罪犯了，他等於是親手把犯罪事證奉送給我們。」
他又說：「過去三年來，利茲市的犯罪率減少了三成二，如果有更多罪犯都能這麼『主動配合』，利茲市的治安將會更好。」（法新社�翻譯：袁星塵）

Picture a 45-foot-long animal with a 5-foot-long skull and 3-foot-long arms. It may not seem strange until you realize that a human with those proportions would be 6 feet tall with 5-inch arms. Although the Tyrannosaurus rex went extinct 65 million years ago, the mystery of its unusual body __1__ has fascinated scientists for over a century. Barnum Brown, the paleontologist who first discovered T. rex fossils, initially found it hard to believe that the tiny arms belonged to such a __2__ creature. One of his colleagues speculated that the short forelimbs might have been used to hold the
A: Actually, Brazilian jiu-jitsu is particularly good for small people like you. B: Really? How so?

Dogs’ noses are incredibly keen. They can even detect changes in cortisol levels in human sweat and breath. Known as the “stress hormone,” cortisol increases when humans are under pressure. Recent research indicates that the smell of human stress can influence a dog’s behavior and emotions. In the study, human volunteers were exposed to the stressful tasks of preparing and delivering a speech on the spot and then solving math problems. __1__ Researchers collected sweat and breath samples from the volunteers on pieces of cloth during both their stressful and restful states. Meanwhile, other researchers worked with 18
