A Saudi Prince and nine other people have been charged with drug smuggling in Lebanon.

They were arrested after two tones of Captagon 
pills were found in cases being loaded on a private jet.
The pills, which typically contain amphetamine and caffeine, are consumed widely in the Middle East.

The drug was first produced in the 1960s, to treat hyperactivity, narcolepsy and depression. But it was banned in most countries by the 1980s, because it was too addictive.

According to a 1983 article in the journal Science, "soot found on ceilings of prehistoric caves provides ample evidence of the high levels of pollution that was associated with inadequate ventilation of open fires.” Metal forging appears to be a key turning point in the creation of significant air pollution levels outside the home. Core samples of glaciersin Greenland indicate increases in pollution associated with Greek, Roman and Chinese metal pr...
