Elderly Amish Man Caught on Film With Prostitute, Blackmailed
When a 75-year-old Amish widower slept with a prostitute, he -- we feel certain -- felt pretty bad about it the next morning. As if that guilt weren't enough for the old man, the prostitute and her boyfriend demanded $67,000 from him, claiming that they had filmed the scene with wall-mounted cameras and would upload the recording to the Internet. The pair was later arrested and, we can only imagine, the Amish man abhorred technology more than ever.
Bank Robber Gets Away With the Help of Craiglist
In October, a bank robber -- wearing a safety vest, blue shirt, face mask and goggles -- eluded police with the help of Craiglist. Just outside the bank, while the robbery was in progress, stood a group of men who were responding to a Craiglist day labor opportunity. As the advertisement required, they were all wearing safety vests, blue shirts, face masks and goggles.
Nude New Zealander Arrested After Responding to Fake Sexy Text Message
Late in 2007, a Wellington, New Zealand man received a racy text message from two anonymous "ladies," giving him only an address and a request that he show up naked. Well, he indeed showed up naked... at the home of one appalled, unsuspecting New Zealander. Both the nude Romeo and the sadistic texter were arrested, though neither were prosecuted.
Fake Craiglist Ad Costs Man Most of What He Owns
Last Spring, a post appeared on an Oregon Craigslist board stating that the owner of a specific house was leaving all of his worldly possessions (still in said house) to whoever wanted them. When homeowner Robert Salisbury rushed home -- on a tip from a woman suspicious about the offer of a free horse -- he found his house being ransacked by 30 strangers. We suggest he take that horse and collect some vengeance Clint Eastwood-style.
17-Year-Old Jailed for Stealing Virtual 'Furniture'
When a 17-year-old Dutch boy hacked into several accounts on the Second Life-style site 'Habbo' in 2007, the the law got involved. The boy was discovered to have stolen $5,800 worth of virtual furniture and knick-knacks. Apparently, crime -- whether actual or virtual -- does not pay.
Phishers Going After Your Phones in New 'Vishing' Trend
Over the past year, sneaky spammers have begun to forsake the worn-out territory of e-mail in favor of cell phones' fertile frontier. The result? "Vishing." Get it? Voice mail phishing. It might be more ominous if it didn't sound like a James Bond villain saying, "Wishing."
Burglars Break Into Restaurant, Steal HDTV, Leave Money / Food Behind
Around Halloween of last year, a truckload of thieves drove into -- that's right, into -- a Pennsylvania Mexican restaurant, where they -- apparently uninterested in the cash register -- stole a mid-grade 47-inch HDTV and fled the scene. We've all heard about how this generation is lacking in ambition, but this generation's thieves, too?

That's pretty cool! I finally got it spinning the other way. If you concentrate on the shadow of the foot and sort stare at it out of focus, it'll change direction. Then work your way up to her rack she'll be going the other way. Very cool. Though I don't know if its a test for the brain, but probably to see if you have a foot fetish or not :)

If you watch her long enough, you will see that she switches legs. Her right leg is pointed when she is going clockwise, and her left leg is pointed when she is going counter-clockwise.

wow...for a long time I could just see her counter clockwise.....then I concentrated on the shadow of the foot for a bit and she went clockwise and if I scanned up a bit and back down she would go back and forth for a short bit until I lost my focus and she was back counter clockwise.....amazing.

This is totally fake. She switches from clockwise to counterclockwise over time. Dumb.

I CANNOT see her going counterclockwise, no matter how long I stare at the image. I see her ONLY going clockwise. Hmmm...

Only clockwise! Can't see her going any other way. How intriguing.

VERY cool! To reverse the image, let your eyes relax and go a little blurry and even cross a bit until you see double images of the lady. The image will then switch and you can reverse it at will.

It actually changed direction for me when I ran my mouse over the image. And it's changing back and forth randomly. The legs pointing even change... This is retarded. And I know I'm not just using my mind to change directions.

I saw her swapping between both - I initially saw counter clockwise and then shadow at the foot seemed to be a trigger for her to go clockwise. You should test this out - cover your right eye for a while and stare, then cover your left eye - you will be accessing different hemispheres, so you might see her change direction if you have not already. There is also a longer test you can take - I came out 50/50 on the hemispheres - so that would explain me seeing both.

You can get her to reverse directions in your mind. It's not a gimmick as mentioned below. When she is "facing" you with her leg pointed toward you, just imagine that her leg is pointing away from you (which means she has her back to you). As soon as you do that, she will appear to spin in the opposite direction.

The key is in the shadow of this figure. Everytime you switch your focus from the black figure to her gray shadow below, and start moving your eyes upward to the figure again, you would see that it changes from clockwise to counter-clockwise.

HOAX!! SEVERAL OF US WERE WATCHING AT THE SAME TIME AND ALL SAW THE BODY CHANGING DIRECTION AT THE SAME EXACT TIME! IF YOU DONT BELIEVE ME, WATCH IT WITH SOMEONE ELSE!!

WRONG! I watched it with someone else and it randomly switched while it stayed for the other person.

Useless website. I hope no one gets paid to put this junk up there for AOL users.

When I first looked at it, she was spinning clockwise, but then I started thinking, making sure that clockwise was the way she was spinning, and when I looked back at the picture, she was spinning the other way. That is just too frickin' cool. xD

i think she switches legs every few seconds sometimes she's staznding on her right leg, then she's standing on her left leg. watch her hips closely.
