Japan speed-eater gobbles title

Takeru Kobayashi is not nicknamed "Tsunami" or "Big Wave" for nothing.
The Japanese world speed-eating champion has swallowed a total of 53 and a half hot dogs, and their accompanying buns, in just 12 minutes.

US Military worry over Coke cans

Specially rigged Coke cans, part of a summer promotion, contain cell phones and global positioning chips. That has officials at some installations worried the cans could be used to eavesdrop, and they are instituting protective measures.

Mart Martin, a Coca-Cola spokesman, said no one would mistake one of the winning cans from the company’s “Unexpected Summer” promotion for a regular Coke. “The can is dramatically different looking,” he said. The cans have a recessed panel on the outside and a big red button. “It’s very clear that there’s a cell phone device.”

Winners activate it by pushing the button, which can only call Coke’s prize center, he said. Data from the GPS device can only be received by Coke’s prize center. Prizes include cash, a home entertainment center and an SUV.

Nonetheless, military bases, including the U.S. Army Armor Center at Fort Knox, Ky., are asking soldiers to examine their Coke cans before bringing them in to classified meetings.
