1. "Extremist Jews prevent women from voting in Israel"
When some Israeli women attempted to vote this past Wednesday, extremely Orthodox Jewish men screamed at them to leave the voting area immediately and even physically pushed them out of the building. Apparently this particular group of Jews is well-known for attempting to force their views on others, but most Israeli Jews strongly object to these practices.

2. "Truffles: the most expensive food in the world"
European white truffles can sell for as much as $3600 for a single pound, making them the most expensive fungus - or any other kind of food - in the world. Truffles are naturally occuring but rare and specially trained dogs are needed to locate them.

3. "Affair leads to shocking Ga. double murder"
Philip Heidt and his son Carey were attacked and killed in his home, his wife Linda getting shot and suffering damages to her face and shoulder. Both men were shot in the face. The killer staged the scene to look like a robbery attempt gone wrong, and then doused the entire house in gasoline, even while Linda was bleeding and dialing 911. Carey's wife Robin was apparently having an affair with his older brother Craig, and their picture perfect marriage was definitely not what it seemed to be. When her husband found out, he removed her as the beneficiary in his will and his father confronted Craig, telling him that if he didn't end it with Robin he would be cut off. One morning when the cheating pair had gone to a remote cabin, they were awoken by a helicopter taking photos of them, sent by Philip Heidt to gather evidence. Craig became very angry and vowed to "go old school" on his father and brother if they didn't back off. When Robin returned, she argued with her husband who decided to stay with his parents for the night. Robin told Craig where he had gone and that night he killed his father and brother, and also shot his mother. He denied the affair in interrogation, as well as having shot his parents and brother. Evidence, however, proved him a liar. There is still some debate about whether or not Robin was as innocent in the killings as she claims to be.
