In the cloak and dagger world of international espionage, it takes a cool head and nerves of steel to get the job, though being a human isn't necessarily a prerequisite -- at least that's according to authorities in Saudi Arabia who recently detained a wild vulture under the suspicion that the bird was a spy. Yes, a vulture. Officials became concerned when they discovered that the otherwise unremarkable bird was wearing a transmitter and a ID bracelet around its leg, tying it to a foreign entity.

A flood of new details on Ridley Scott's two-part Alien prequel have emerged courtesy of a report by Vulture.
For starters, perhaps the biggest news is that the prequel will be known as Paradise (no more of this Untitled Alien Prequel business). It's certainly bold, and sure not to please everyone, but is it going to help mark this out as a totally new direction for the franchise?
The plot will centre on a group of space travellers who encounter a xenomorph, before it made its way onto the Nostromo. An earlier version of the Bishop android is set to appear, so maybe Lance Henriksen is going to get the same de-ageing treatment Jeff Bridges has had for TRON: Legacy.
Vulture's source is also stating that the release dates of the 3D prequels will not be moving from 2013 to 2014, as has recently been mooted.

Over Scotland aircraft were warned about a missing vulture called Gandalf, since the bird can fly at 37,000 feet and has a 10ft wing span that could take out a small aircraft.
Gandalf is a 7 year old female Vulture and was taking part in a bird display in Cumbernauld when a gust of wind caused the bird to take off.
"Mr Ritchie also said: "She was taking part in her daily display and started to soar. She got caught in the wind and just went higher and higher until she disappeared.
"We would warn people not to approach her but to call the police. She has no fear of humans and she could give someone a very severe bite. Her beak is designed to tear flesh apart."-BBCOver Scotland aircraft were warned about a missing vulture called Gandalf, since the... more
