Women 'try to set fire to porn shop' in sweden

Two young women tried to set fire to a pornographic video shop in Malmö on Thursday night, police have said.The women, 23 and 26, were arrested at 12:45 am near the shop on Bergsgatan in the city."They were outside the shop, and set fire to a phone book. They also tried to set fire to an antenna cable that led into the video store," said police spokesman Lars-Håkan Lindholm to The Local.As well as housing the porn shop, the block housed a number of apartments.

Police were called to the scene by someone who saw what the young women were doing. It is not yet clear whether the women's action was a political statement or whether they had another motive."They are going to be questioned. There's nothing yet to indicate a motive. They had been drinking vodka however, and they were pretty drunk," said Lindholm.
The women are suspected of attempted arson, but police say their attempt was a long way from being successful.

"It was pretty clumsily done," said Lindholm.

Toxin from Spiderman


Strengths and abilities

Toxin possesses the "unique" special abilities of his two symbiote predecessors; He can stick to walls, can change his identity to that of a completely different person and also has unlimited webbing. His suit is red from the abdomen up and blue from the abdomen down. Toxin can also blend in with its surroundings and become undetectably camouflaged, an ability he gained from his grandfather, and he can form solid weapons from his limbs, an ability first seen in his father. Toxin also seems to have some sort of quick-healing ability like his predecessors, as his wounds from his first battle with Razor Fist healed remarkably quickly. Unlike the others, Toxin can track anyone, not just other symbiotes or symbiote hosts, as long as he has something to begin from, within the entire city of New York and possibly further.

Unlike the other symbiotes, Toxin does not try to take over the mind of his human host. Instead, the symbiote actually thinks and voices its opinions to the human host (as evidenced in Toxin's Cut to the Chase storyline). The symbiote usually speaks when the host is in his "human form", and acts very immature and childlike because of its nascent existence, once refusing to aid Pat in battle until he apologized for an earlier argument. In addition, he seems to have a stronger resistance to sonics and intense heat compared to Carnage, though this does not mean that Toxin is more resistant to violent urges: it can get carried away with violence and fighting crime, even if it's a petty crime. When he's not angry or fighting, Toxin is slim and smooth-lined, although still well muscled, closely resembling Carnage or Spider-Man in his symbiote costume. When he becomes upset or aggressive, he grows into his much bigger and stronger form (like Venom), with vicious fangs and long curving claws.
