A Malaysian court has fined a man and a woman four buffaloes and a pig after they were found guilty of an extra-marital affair, a local report says.
The pair were convicted by the Native Court in Penampang on Borneo island, after the man's wife lodged a complaint last year, said the Star newspaper.
She had found her husband wearing shorts at his second home with her colleague, who was wearing a sarong.
The court in Sabah state rejected their claim they were just "best friends".
Convicting the pair under customary local laws, Judge William Sampil said on Friday there was strong evidence the pair had had an affair, reported the Star.
They were ordered to compensate their communities with the livestock, valued at about 6,500 ringgit ($1,900; £1,200) for their tryst.
They were also reportedly each fined 1,000 ringgit.

I wonder what the spent on travel, bags, sand, and salt. Other articles said the sand was aquarium sand. Doesn't that cost more than Jello?Suffolk County police have arrested an East Northport couple in connection with a bizarre case of Jell-o tampering. The couple face multiple counts of petit larceny and tampering with a consumer product. They were arrested on Sunday, March 28, 2010 and face arraignment later on the charges against them.
Alexander Clement, 68-years-old, and Christine Clement, 64-years-old, are accused of buying Jell-O pudding, replacing the contents of the boxes with a mixture of sand and salt, resealing the packages and returning them to the stores for a refund. Apparently, they hit four Long Island stores a total of five times. Three of the markets are in Brookhaven, Smithtown and Huntington, all in Suffolk County, and the fourth is in Woodbury, in Nassau County.
The allegation is that Alexander would drive Christine to the store where she would buy ten boxes of Jell-O pudding at a time. Pistachio and butterscotch are said to have been their choice flavors. When back at home, she would replace the contents of the boxes with a mixture of sand and salt in plastic sandwich bags. Then her husband would drive her back to the store where she would return the boxes for a refund. It appears that she did such a good job of this that the tampering was not noticeable and the boxes were placed back on the shelves for re-sale.
The Clement’s scheme wasn’t detected until other customers started bringing the salt and sand filled boxes back to the store and complaining. The police were notified and authorities were able to traced the suspicious Jell-O thefts by reviewing surveillance videos.
Suffolk Police Lt. Michael Murphy says he doesn’t believe the couple meant any harm. They just wanted Jell-O without having to pay for it. And its not that they are destitute. According to reports, the jell-o tampering couple are well-off financially and have been married for over 40-years. It is also reported that Christine is suffering from ‘an age-related mental issue’. Neither Alexander Clement or Christine Clement have a history of run-ins with the law. Now they face charges in this food tampering case.
This story is more tragic than criminal.

I have no idea what a country does when it loses nearly its entire government in a tragedy such as this.
A Danish hotel is offering a free meal to any guest who is able to produce electricity for the hotel on an exercise bike attached to a generator.
The Crowne Plaza Hotel in Copenhagen says the idea is to get people fit and reduce their carbon footprint.
Guests will have to produce at least 10 watt hours of electricity - roughly 15 minutes of cycling for someone of average fitness.
The hotel already produces renewable energy with solar panels on its facade.
Guests staying at Plaza Hotel will be given meal vouchers worth $36 (26 euros; £23) once they have produced 10 watt hours of electricity, hotel spokeswoman Frederikke Toemmergaard told the BBC News website.

I usually go to a hotel for one of two reasons. Either I'm on a business trip and I have no time to go to the gym or I'm on vacation and I have no desire to exercise. That said, I bet there will be plenty of people who will be attracted to this.

I like this part. Very creative! All the more reasons to use a normal user account on your Windows machine, as opposed to one with Admin privileges.
