Police are hunting for a man who stormed a Sunshine Coast pharmacy, sprayed a chemical at staff, left a device on the counter and ran off with drugs.

Wearing a protective mask and suit, the man entered the Twin Waters pharmacy at around 1pm, threatening to blow up the staff if they tried to move.

A bomb squad is on the scene sussing out the device while emergency services initially hosed down staff before three female employees were taken to Nambour Hospital to be checked over.

EXECUTIONS TAKE PLACE IN INDONESIA

Six prisoners on death row in Indonesia have been executed.

All faced the firing squad, including five foreigners from Brazil, the Netherlands, Vietnam,Malawi and Nigeria.

Five were executed on Nusakambangan Island, off the southern coast of Java.

The sixth was executed in Boyolali district in central Java.

These are the first executions to take place in Indonesia under new President Joko Widodo who is taking a hard-line approach to drug offenders.

Indonesian President Joko Widodo
Australian Myuran Sukumaran is on death row, is due to face the firing squad after having his plea for clemency rejected.

Fellow Bali Nine member Andrew Chan is yet to have his last ditch plea formally rejected.

Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott has urged President Widodo to show mercy to the pair.

BRISBANE MELTS: BUT WHAT's NEXT?

Fan on last night? Aircon humming? You betcha.

Brisbane's sweltered through its hottest night since 2004 overnight, with the temp down to 27 degrees. Blergh.

The humidity factor was extreme too, hovering around 87% well into the night.

BUT, there's some good news on the way!

The forecast is tipping a cool change:

Thank God grandma has aircon #hotdog #puppylove #furgrandkids #brisbanehot

BABY NAMES AUTHORITIES SAID NO TO
Got any interesting baby names on your list? Are they so interesting they might be nixed at the Registry Office?

The NZ Department Of Internal Affairs has revealed the baby names they said NO to in 2014, and there are some shockers.

One bubba was going to be called Senior Constable, while other newborns were set to be called '3rd' and '09'.

Justice also got the thumbs down, as did Justyce and Justis.

People were also keen on adding a royal touch - with Prince, Princess, King, Majesty and Royal-Rule rejected.

Under New Zealand law names can be rejected for a limited number of reasons, including that they are unreasonably long, resemble a title or rank, or may be offensive.

TOP DIET TIPS - FOR REALZ
More than 2.3 million of us are currently slurping down a kale smoothie for lunch or munching on celery sticks, trying to shed those extra kilos we packed on over the holidays.
Kale smoothie anyone? Or just sensible eating?

But, there's a catch. Those 'Fad Diets' that promises dramatic results like dropping 3 dress sizes in a few weeks are just not realistic.

The Dieticians Association of Australia reckons putting in the hard yards in the first month will help us to keep the weight off long-term, and using things like a 'fitbit' to track our progress can keep us more motivated.

There's nothing paleo, or sugar free about these top tips - but they are scientifically PROVEN. Yep, science.

1. Eat a healthy breakky - EVERYDAY
2. Portion size your food and make sure it's high in fibre to keep you full
3. Get moving every day of the week - a brisk 20 minute walk daily can do wonders
4. Expect challenges - remember weight loss takes patience and effort
5. Use an app or online tracker to monitor your healthy habits

SUNNY COAST RAIDS NET DRUGS,CASH and AMMO
Thirteen people have been arrested on 34 charges after police raids on the Sunshine Coast and Wide Bay Burnett during the past week.
Charges include possession and production of dangerous drugs, unlawful possession of explosives, drug utensils, possession of counterfeit money and tainted property.

Police say they've uncovered a heap of dangerous drugs including methyl-amphetamines, cannabis, including a small cannabis crop and steroids. A mobile phone frequency jammer, counterfeit money, a sum of cash, ammunition and a quantity of unlawful fireworks and drug paraphernalia were also found.

Detective Inspector Brendan Smith from Taskforce Maxima said he was pleased with the results from the joint operations.

This deployment saw officers from the Taskforce work with regional police to target the unlawful activities of criminal gangs and their networks. Reinforced by the results of these recent efforts, we will continue to work together, conducting operations wherever these gangs operate.
It is always a good result when we locate and seize dangerous drugs during these operations. The possession of counterfeit money and an electronic mobile phone jammer further demonstrates the sophistication and extent of their criminal activities.

THUMBS UP TO COUPLES WHO SWEAT TOGETHER

If you're trying to kick a bad habit, you've got more chance if you get your partner involved.

Scientists looked at 3722 couples, either married or living together, who were enrolled into the English Longitudinal Study of Ageing (Elsa).

When it comes to smoking, half of the women in the study managed to quit if their partner gave up at the same time. That's compared to a success rate of just 8% of women who had partners who were regular smokers.

The same deal applies to healthy eating, and exercising.

TIGER'S MISSING TOOTH

Tiger Woods has made an impression visiting his girlfriend at a ski event in Cortina D'Ampezzo, Italy.

He didn't crack much of a smile, despite the fact Lindsey Vonn won a record breaking 63rd Alpine racing win.

That's because he's missing a tooth. Right in the front there.

His agent says there's nothing dodgy about it, and that a cameraman had crashed into him in the push to get closer to the podium.

Time for a trip to the dentist, Tiger?

CHILD RAPIST: MY MONITORING BRACELET "EMBARRASSING"

A convicted child rapist whose 14 year old victim took her own life wants to have his monitoring ankle bracelet removed because it's 'embarrassing'.

42 year old Darren Costello's served 13 years prison over the attack at Inala in 1995. The Courier Mail reports he was on parole for trying to rob a pregnant woman with a baseball bat at the time.

In Costello's application, he says he's paranoid everyone will know he's got a monitoring device, and claims to have missed out on three jobs because of it.

The complaints don't sit well with child safety advocate and Bravehearts boss Hetty Johnston.

She says he should consider himself lucky to even be allowed back in the community. " This guy's dangerous, and no one really cares what whether he thinks it's embarrassing or not. The fact is he shouldn't really even be out there."

CAN YOU HELP POLICE SOLVE TWIN WATERS ROBBERY?
Remember that armed robbery at a Twin Waters pharmacy last Friday?

It involved a man entering the business, spraying a purple substance at staff, leaving a suss looking package on the counter and taking off with drugs.

Well, detectives have released the image of a man they believe can help with their investigations.
He's described as being in his 40s, white, slim, with grey/brown hair and around 178cms tall.

Nobody was seriously injured, and chemical and air tests all came back clear.

He was seen by witnesses walking around outside the pharmacy and a nearby doctor’s surgery for about 40mins before entering the pharmacy.

Sunshine Coast detectives want anyone with info to contact Crime Stoppers or Policelink.
