Man-made islands designed like miniture countries, placed in internation waters "free of laws and moral codes". I think it's custom made for a Delta Green game but it could also be a good start for designing custom habitats in Eclipse Phase.

This just popped up in the news again:

Good stuff for any horror game or in an action game as a "motive" for the PCs.

I almost post the Wiki entry when I posted the first article. It's odd to have two cases in a decade let alone in a month.

Ms Wake, who has died in London just before her 99th birthday, was a New Zealander brought up in Australia. She became a nurse, a journalist who interviewed Adolf Hitler, a wealthy French socialite, a British agent and a French resistance leader. She led 7,000 guerrilla fighters in battles against the Nazis in the northern Auvergne, just before the D-Day landings in 1944. On one occasion, she strangled an SS sentry with her bare hands. On another, she cycled 500 miles to replace lost codes. In June 1944, she led her fighters in an attack on the Gestapo headquarters at Montlucon in central France.

Fuck. Yeah.

Anyone can shoot someone.  It takes something extra special to strangle someone to death with your own digits.

Nightmare fuel. What really goes on inside illegal spas? If this is accurate - nothing you want on or in you.  :o

Proof we live in a dystopian future: http://pruned.blogspot.com/2011/09/mapping-dark-geography-of-sand.html

Sand piracy is a thing. Criminals steal fucking SAND for profit and sell it to Singapore, which uses the sand to create new land.

I smell Call of Cthulhu scenario all over this one.

Some how I feel like this is a song about a guy who killed his friends and dumped them in the lake. The reason why may or may not include Deep Ones.
