Facebook group seeks camera's owner

SYDNEY, Nov. 3 (UPI) -- An Australian man said a Facebook group he created to identify the owner of a camera he found in Greece has grown to more than 180,000 members.

Danny Cameron said he found a camera by a bus stop on the Greek island of Mykonos while vacationing in September and he was unable to find any information leading to its owner before he returned home to Sydney, Australia, in mid-October, Sky News reported.

"Six degrees of separation has always fascinated me, and I thought that maybe, just maybe, I could use Facebook to close the world between us," Cameron said of his inspiration to create the "Needle in a Haystack" Facebook group.

He said he posted pictures from the camera to the group in the hope that someone will view them and recognize a face.

Cameron said the group started out with a modest 40 members and quickly grew to more than 180,000.

"I am being absolutely blown away by the growth of the group -- it is blowing my mind, it might actually work and I am seeing how many of the people like to see good happen," he said.

Notes may contain 150-year-old recipe

WORCESTER, England, Nov. 3 (UPI) -- A former employee of British company Lea and Perrins discovered what may be the original 150-year old recipe for Worcestershire sauce, his daughter says.

Bonnie Clifford said her father, Brian Keogh, who died in 2006, discovered notes while he was working for the Worcester, England, company that date back to the mid-19th century and she is working with the Worcester City Museum to verify whether they contain the company's original Worcestershire sauce recipe, The Daily Telegraph reported.

Experts said the notes are written in two separate styles of handwriting, likely because no one person knew the entire recipe.

"There has always been a lot of secrecy surrounding the recipes and pride that it is made locally," Worcester City Museum collections officer David Nash said. "Not even the staff knew the whole recipe, only parts of it, which would account for the different handwriting, and some of the ingredients were written in code."

"Even with all the ingredients there is no guarantee you would be able to make the sauce as what makes it distinctive is the way it is made, which is still a secret," he said.

15 seconds for Rubik's 'speedcuber'

OLD MARKET, England, Nov. 3 (UPI) -- A 23-year-old British student who competes in Rubik's Cube competitions says she can finish the puzzle in as little as 15 seconds.

Charlotte Cooper of Old Market, England, said her fastest finish in a competition was 17.59 seconds at a Swindon, England, event in July, but she has frequently beat that score while practicing, The Sun reported.

"At home it's not uncommon for me to get solves of under 15 seconds," she said.

Cooper, who said she practices for as much as five hours a day, is a rarity among professional "speedcubers" as most competitors are men with backgrounds in math or science. Cooper said she is working on a degree in English.

"It's not beyond anybody, although it does take a considerable amount of dedication and ability to remember the sequences to learn how to solve it," she said.

Cooper is scheduled to compete next at the U.K. Open competition in Manchester, England. She is also planning to compete in events in Sweden, Spain and the United States in the near future.
