Boy Survives 'Most Venomous Snake' Bite /smiley Just one drop of venom from an inland taipan is enough to kill 100 adult men - which makes one teen's survival even more amazing.,An Australian teenager had a lucky escape after being bitten by the world's most venomous snake.

The 17-year-old walked into a hospital in the small town of Kurri Kurri, north of Sydney, on Wednesday afternoon with a bite to his left hand.

According to reports, his friend was carrying a plastic tub containing the snake responsible, which was later identified as the toxic inland taipan.

Also known as the fierce snake due to the strength of its venom - one drop of which is enough to kill 100 adult men - the inland taipan typically lives in central Australia's arid deserts and is not normally seen on the coast.

Detectives are investigating how he came into contact with the desert reptile amid speculation it could have been an illegal pet.

"The youth ... is reported to be in a stable condition," police said in a statement.

"Police are now attempting to establish how the youth came to be bitten, and hope to speak to the young man once he is considered well enough."

According to doctors, the boy's rapid treatment with anti-venom had been crucial to his survival, as inland taipan venom can kill someone in as little as 45 minutes.

Tiger Mauling: Man Charged Over Zoo Leap A man who was mauled after leaping into a tiger enclosure tells police he wanted to touch it and is charged with trespassing. -roflfmao- A man who was seriously injured after jumping into a tiger enclosure at New York's Bronx Zoo has been charged with criminal trespassing.

David Villalobos is being treated in hospital for bites on his arms, legs, shoulders and back, as well as a broken arm, leg and pelvis and a collapsed lung after leaping from a monorail train into the den of a 180kg tiger last week.

The 25-year-old, whose condition was described as stable, has been charged after a complaint from the zoo and admitting to police that he deliberately jumped into the enclosure – without fear - because he wanted to "be one with the tiger".

It was "definitely not a suicide attempt", he told detectives.

Villalobos, who will be arrested at a later date, also recounted how, after he landed on all fours, the animal attacked him and dragged him around by his foot, according to the New York Police Department.

Despite his serious injuries, he claimed he was able to get his wish and pet the tiger - a male Siberian named Bashuta - before his rescue. /smiley

Doctors stored woman's skull in her belly after live-saving brain surgery Goodgreef!! A mother of three woke from brain surgery to find quarter of her head missing - and it was being stored in her stomach. *** If there were no pictures, you wouldn’t believe Jamie Hilton’s extraordinary story. She spent 42 days after life-saving brain surgery with a quarter of her skull ‘living’ in her stomach.

And now the former American beauty queen is back at home after surgeons successfully stapled the bone to her head.

'My heart feels like it could explode with GRATITUDE,’ she wrote on her blog.

‘My cup is running over with joy and happiness. Is everything in my life perfect? No. But today I AM ALIVE!’

The 36-year-old’s brush with death came after she stumbled and hit her head on a fishing trip with her husband, Nick, to Hell’s Canyon in Idaho in June. *** She was taken unconscious to hospital in Boise where doctors found her brain had swollen.

They decided to remove a quarter of her skull to ease the swelling and put it inside her stomach to keep it sterile and nourished.

When the mother of three, a former Mrs Idaho, woke from the operation she found a lump in her stomach and a large portion of her head missing. Mrs Hilton posted a photo of the skull in her abdomen on her blog entitled ‘Miracles... believe in them’ as well as a photo showing a scar running the length of her head.,She wrote about the moment her skull was replaced last month. ‘Surgery went as well as expected! My skull is back in my head... really weird to say/smiley,’ she said.

‘For now the only possible problems are infection or my body rejecting the skull being back in my head.’

Since recovering she has returned to work in the family taxi business as she attempts to clear a six-figure medical bill.

Flock of unruly sheep ram-raid Austrian sports store *** /smiley More than 80 stampeding sheep flocked to the shop in the popular ski resort village of St Anton, as tourists filmed the unlikely incident on their mobile phones.

'We think one of them saw its reflection in a mirror and came in to investigate,' explained a store spokesman.

'And being sheep, of course the rest of them decided to follow.'

The fluffy mammals caused complete carnage as they piled into the store, clearly enjoying their freedom in the absence of a shepherd to round them up. *** Store manager Michael Ess, 42, added: 'They broke some of the sunglasses and left a lot of dirt. We had quite a clean-up to do.

'I have never experienced anything like it.'

A video of the incident was posted on video-sharing website YouTube where it has racked up thousands of hits.

Users compared the frenzied scenes to last week's iPhone 5 launch, with one user commenting: 'Welcome to the Apple store.'

Another joked that the sheep must have been using Apple's much maligned new iOS6 maps app. Video HA HA HA

Chef COOKS His Wife "He treated her like a piece of meat": Chef cooked his wife for four days to try to hide the evidence of her murder /smiley
He stuffed his wife's body in a 55-gallon drum of boiling water and kept it submerged with weights,
A chef who told police he boiled his wife's body for four days to hide evidence of her death was convicted of second-degree murder.

David Viens showed no emotion as the verdict was read. The sister of his victim burst into sobs.

In a recorded interrogation presented by prosecutors during the trial in Los Angeles, Viens, 49, can be heard saying he cooked the body of his 39-year-old wife, Dawn in late 2009 until little was left but her skull.

"He treated her like a piece of meat and got rid of her," said Karen Patterson, the couple's best friend who spoke to reporters outside court.

She was the key witness in Viens' trial and the person who prodded police to investigate her friend's disappearance.

At a news conference, she warned others to take heed of domestic violence among friends.

She apologised for failing to act herself when Mrs Viens called her during an incident of abuse, but begged her not to call police.

"Maybe you have to go beyond your friend's trust and try to save lives," she said.

But Ms Patterson said she would like to visit Viens in prison.

"Even through all this, he is still my friend," she said. "I struggle with the lovely person who killed another lovely person. I would remind him of how much Dawn loved him."

Juror Tal Erickson said it was Viens' own words in two confessions that convinced them of his guilt.

The chef spoke to authorities from a hospital bed in March 2011 after leaping off a cliff in Rancho Palos Verdes.

Authorities say he jumped after learning he was a suspect in her disappearance.

The trial relied heavily on recorded interviews with authorities in which the chef acknowledged the crime in detail.

"I just slowly cooked it and I ended up cooking her for four days," Viens could be heard saying on the recording.

Viens, who attended his trial in a wheelchair, said in the interview that he stuffed his wife's body in a 55-gallon drum of boiling water and kept it submerged with weights.

He said he mixed what remained after four days with other waste, dumping some of it in a grease pit at his restaurant in Lomita, and putting the rest with the rubbish.

He said he stashed his wife's skull in his mother's attic in Torrance.

But a search of the house turned up nothing, nor did an excavation of the restaurant.

Mr Erickson told reporters the gruesome evidence shocked jurors.

Birmingham to Kashmir by bus Plans have been announced to launch a bus service between Birmingham and Mirpur in Pakistan, known as "Little Birmingham".It promises to be Britain’s longest bus route – all the way from Birmingham to Kashmir almost 4,000 miles away.

Plans have been drawn up for a bus service between the West Midlands and Mirpur, nicknamed “Little Birmingham” because of close historical and family ties between the two cities.

The Mirpur region’s transport chief Tahir Khokher says the route will span seven countries including Iran and Pakistan – and include stopovers in Quetta, near the Afghan border, and the Iranian capital Tehran.

Tickets for the 12-day trip are expected to cost £130, a saving of around £450 on the average air fare.Birmingham is home to the world’s largest population of Kashmiri expatriates, many having emigrated from Mirpur in the 1960s after being displaced by the building of a dam.

Mr Khokher says he hoped the service would strengthen ties and tourism between the two cities. “We are proposing to run four luxury buses once a fortnight,” he said. “The Kashmir government will also set up a swift counter system to hasten the visa process for those who don’t have a British passport.”

The plans were welcomed last night by by Khalid Mahmood, a Birmingham Labour MP whose family originates from Mirpur. “It’s a great idea that will bring the two cities closer together and be a real life experience, particularly for younger people,” he said.

His views were echoed by Mohammed Nazam, a city councillor, who said earlier generations often made the trip from Britain to Pakistan by road. “In the 1970s and 1980s people would drive a van from the UK to Kashmir and it would take about 10 or 12 days of hard driving, day and night,” he said. “Even in those days it was a real adventure. But the world isn’t as safe a place as it used to be.”

Mr Khokher dismissed security concerns, particularly those surrounding the volatile city of Quetta, where top Taliban commanders are believed to be in hiding. “I don’t feel it will be a problem,” he said. “The government is responsible for security.

“Barring one or two instances in Quetta, the overall situation is good to go.” GOSH BET UR ARSE WILL BE SORE AFTER THAT

Man jailed for attacking wife with sandwich /smiley American Larry Spurling has been jailed after admitting attacking his wife - with a sandwich.Spurling pleaded no contest to disturbing the peace following an incident at his home in Melbeta, Nebraska, on Sunday.

The 50-year-old was arrested after his wife called 911 following an argument in which Spurling pushed her down on a bed before rubbing the sandwich in her face, reports KETV.

An officer who arrived at the property told a court on Monday that he found several pieces of meat on the carpet outside a bedroom and bits of bread just metres away.

The woman said her husband had grown angry with her for 'making him live in the country' before the disturbance.

She added that he was bored as 'there is no place for him to walk'.

The court heard how Spurling drank three large cans of eight per cent malt liquor Natty Daddy leading up to the incident.

His wife said she 'got tired' of an argument before making herself a sandwich and going to a bedroom, while Spruling followed her moments later.

He was sentenced to five days in jail. However, it is not clear what was in the sandwich. /smiley ha ha ha surely it could only happen in usa

Fowlty towers: Luxury five-star hotel for chickens opens in Kent england (chicken)
An egg-centric hotelier has turned her passion for poultry into a business after opening up a luxury five-star hotel for chickens.,
Julie Smith decided to open the guesthouse for hens due to the huge demand for the service in her rural Kent community.

She was inspired to create the hen hotel, named Fowlty Towers, after being regularly asked to look after her friends feathered pets while they were on holiday.

'A lot of people asked what they would do when they went on holiday with the hens,' explained Ms Smith, who has 13 hens of her own.

'So I started looking after them as a favour and then I thought well it might be a bit of a business and we'll try and get them sorted.'
Free from their chicken coops, the feathered birds can relax in five-star accommodation or roam free in the hotel's fox-proof garden.

The birds are also taken for walks and on trips to the local village pub.

She added: 'Of course the best place for any animal including hens would be in their own home, that's what they're used to, but I try and offer them service where they get as good as home.

'I think that they bring them to me because I give them individual attention, as I say they are pets so I care a lot about them.

Comet 15 times brighter than the Moon to cross night sky next year
/smiley
Astronomers have discovered a 'super comet' named ISON that is so bright it will be visible in daylight when it passes Earth next year .omg.
The small Solar System body (SSS/smiley is set to provide a dazzling show as it lights up the sky in November 2013, with some experts claiming it will be the brightest comet man has ever witnessed.

Named ISON because it was discovered by Russian astronomers using the International Scientific Optical Network telescope, the comet is currently very dim due to it being many hundreds of millions of kilometres away near Jupiter's orbit but will brighten when it passes within 2million km of the Sun next November.

A comet on this path is called a sungrazer and there is a chance the celestial display will be ruined by ISON breaking up when it nears the Sun.

If the comet can withstand the inner Solar System without dissipating it will appear as a bright light in the sky and will erupt jets of gas and dust.

'This is a very exciting discovery. The comet looks like it could become a very spectacular sight in the evening sky after sunset from the UK in late November and early December next year,' said Robin Scagell, vice-president of the Society for Popular Astronomy.

'Our members will be eagerly following it as it makes its first trip around the Sun and hoping to see it shining brilliantly and displaying a magnificent tail as it releases powerful jets of gas and dust.'

There may also be the opportunity for some spectacular photography of the comet from Mars, with the European Space Agency's Nick Howes tweeting: 'Comet #ISON will pass VERY close to Mars in Oct 2013, and I mean VERY close.. opportunities for lander/orbiter imaging we hope.'
