Food Buzz As a follow-up to this post, here are 9 more final meals of men condemned to die. This time they're from a collection called 'No Seconds' by Brooklyn photographer Henry Hargreaves. It’s all so very surreal to see the last thing Ted Bundy, Timothy McVeigh or Allen Lee Davis ever ate.

At least 50 college aged men from 11 states have died in the past 10 years in what is now being called the “Smiley Face” mystery. Most of their deaths have been ruled accidental drownings, but two New York cops are questioning one eerie coincidence. At each of these crime scenes there is a smiley face painted somewhere. It's still unclear as to whether this is a coincidence or the work of some deranged serial killer.

The drownings are usually chalked up as accidents, but two former New York cops say they’ve found links that make them look more like murders, and they hypothesize that a sinister group of killers is behind them all.
