Here's an interesting story - apparently the Lebanese authorities recently found a shipment of feminine napkins contaminated with an unspecified radionuclide. The article also mentioned very briefly that an earlier shipment of Chinese cell phone covers were also contaminated with radioactivity.

No nuclide(s) or activity levels were mentioned.
