According to cannibals, the Japanese are yummy

If I were Japanese and I'd have plans to go to Papua New Guinea for the holidays, I'd have second thoughts, because according to the gourmet cannibals that live over there, the Japanese taste the best. White people are yucky because they're smelly and salty.

Bild:

Anthropologist Olga Ammann describes it more succinctly in the book. She quotes people who have eaten other humans: “The meat of white people smells too strongly and is too salty.”

The Japanese are meant to taste the best, according to her study - the only thing that beats it is the meat of their own women.

Chinese girl has a basketball for legs

She bounces around on the basketball that replaces her lower part of the body, but that doesn't stop her from competing in the 2012 Paralympics in London.

The 10 year-old was injured trajically in an auto accident when she was only 3 years old. To insure her survival, the doctors were forced to amputate her legs.

Qian’s family, living in Zhuangxia, China, was unable to afford modern prosthetics and instead used a half a basketball to get around on. Once on the ball she uses two wooden props to help her move around.

The Bush superstar shoe

Bloomberg:

The shoe hurled at President George W. Bush has sent sales soaring at the Turkish maker as orders pour in from Iraq, the U.S. and Iran.

The brown, thick-soled “Model 271” may soon be renamed “The Bush Shoe” or “Bye-Bye Bush,” Ramazan Baydan, who owns the Istanbul-based producer Baydan Ayakkabicilik San. & Tic., said in a telephone interview today.

Baydan has received orders for 300,000 pairs of the shoes since the attack, more than four times the number his company sold each year since the model was introduced in 1999. The company plans to employ 100 more staff to meet demand, he said.

The driver - who has not been named by police - has been banned from taking the car on the road again until it has passed a tidiness test.

Police said the car was so full of junk the woman's face was pressed up against the windscreen as she drove.

Electric Art took these separate 'pieces of the puzzle' and put it back together to create this image of Cathy Freeman. Check out see complete pics.

Man tosses cat into the air during burglary

Investigators in Henry County said they just got the video of robbery that was caught on camera in October at the Georgia Forestry Commission.

The tape shows a man stealing two axes from vehicles parked outside the commission building.

The tape also shows the cat named Wildfire, who lives at the building, greeting the man.

After the friendly cat is seen greeting the robber, the man grabs the cat and tosses it about 30 feet into the air.

Pay-per-wink advertising

Feelunique.com introduces a whole new means of advertising:

feelunique.com is offering people the chance to earn 10 pence per wink in return for displaying the company's logo on their eyelid space. People who sign up to star in the campaign will have the feelunique.com logo temporarily transferred onto their eyelid and will be paid on a Pay Per Wink (PPW) basis - up to a total of £100 per model.

Amy Rebours of feelunique.com says:

"We all take notice when we're being winked at so what better way to advertise feelunique.com than on people's eyelids. It's a genuine marketing first, which encourages people to spread a feel-good winking moment and earn some much-needed extra income in the process."

I wonder what wink tracking system they use.

Woman inhales condom

Accidental condom inhalation:

A 27-year-old lady presented with persistent cough, sputum and fever for the preceding six months. Inspite of trials with antibiotics and anti-tuberculosis treatment for the preceeding four months, her symptoms did not improve. A subsequent chest radiograph showed non-homogeneous collapse-consolidation of right upper lobe. Videobronchoscopy revealed an inverted bag like structure in right upper lobe bronchus and rigid bronchoscopic removal with biopsy forceps confirmed the presence of a condom. Detailed retrospective history also confirmed accidental inhalation of the condom during fellatio.

Snowy Vegas

Daily Mail:

It's known for its casinos, bright lights and soaring temperatures but yesterday the desert city of Las Vegas was blanketed in several inches of snow following a rare storm.

More than six inches of the white stuff fell on the city, forcing schools to close and causing problems for motorists unused to driving in slippery conditions.

But it's unlikely any punters had put any money on snow falling this Christmas - the city has only had measurable levels of snow five times since 1937.

Owners give up their dog because he looks like David Bowie

Being the wrong colour to match a sofa and even having eyes "like David Bowie" rank among some of the excuses given by dog owners for abandoning their pets, according to a leading animal charity.

Here is the top 10 list of most irresponsible reasons for abandoning a dog:

:: "My dog doesn't match the sofa."

:: "The dog looks evil and has different coloured eyes, just like David Bowie."

:: "My black dog doesn't match new white carpet, can we swap him for a white dog?"

:: "My current dog is too old, can we swap for a puppy or younger model?"

:: "My dog ate the Christmas turkey cooling on the worktop."

:: "My pet guinea pig got worried with a dog in the house."

:: "The dog opened all the presents on Christmas Eve."

:: An owner who accidentally knelt in dog mess while cleaning it up brought the dog in the very next day.

:: A puppy bought as a present for elderly couple with dementia.

:: The negative image of Staffordshire Bull Terriers because of their perceived resemblance to Pit Bull-style dogs.

Why did the chicken cross the road?

Different people have a different views on this matter:

Plato: For the greater good.

Aristotle: To fulfill its nature on the other side.

Hippocrates: Because of an excess of light pink gooey stuff in its pancreas.

Karl Marx: It was a historical inevitability.

Thomas de Torquemada: Give me ten minutes with the chicken and I'll find out.

Douglas Adams: Forty-two.

Jean-Paul Sartre: In order to act in good faith and be true to itself, the chicken found it necessary to cross the road.

Albert Einstein: Whether the chicken crossed the road or the road crossed the chicken depends upon your frame of reference.

Howard Cosell: It may very well have been one of the most astonishing events to grace the annals of history. An historic, unprecedented avian biped with the temerity to attempt such an herculean achievement formerly relegated to homo sapien pedestrians is truly a remarkable occurence.

Salvador Dali: The Fish.

Darwin: It was the logical next step after coming down from the trees.

Ernest Hemingway: To die. In the rain.

Jack Nicholson: 'Cause it (censored) wanted to. That's the (censored) reason.

Vagina ripped apart by water fountain

A 19-year-old Chinese college student had a pretty unpleasant experience in thesummer of 2007.

BannedinHollywood.com:

Yang was at the town square in the Henan Province of China watching the musical fountain show with some friends, dancing around the light bursts of water and enjoying herself when from below her a jet erupted, projecting her above the heads of her friends.

When she landed, Yang was bleeding profusely and her energy succumbed to extreme stomach pains–her friends called for help and she was immediately taken to the hospital for treatment. The doctor explained that her vagina had been torn and her intestines had been damaged by the pressure of the water fountain–damage that would take three surgeries over a seven month span to correct.

The daughter, Amal Saad Gumaa, said she agreed with the idea. "This is something that would honour me. I would like to live in Iraq, especially if I were attached to this hero," she told Reuters by telephone.

Watch found in 400-year-old tomb

Chinese archeologists have found a swiss watch in a 400-year-old Ming Dinasty tomb. A Swiss fuckin' watch.

"When we tried to remove the soil wrapped around the coffin, a piece of rock suddenly dropped off and hit the ground with a metallic sound, said Jiang Yanyu, former curator of the Guangxi Autonomous Region Museum.

"We picked up the object, and found it was a ring. After removing the covering soil and examining it further, we were shocked to see it was a watch."

The time was stopped at 10:06am, and on the back was engraved the word "Swiss", reports the People's Daily.

He shot his parents for not letting him play Halo 3

The trial of the 17-year-old who killed his mother and shot his father because they wouldn't allow him to play Halo 3 opened this Monday.

In September 2007, Daniel, then 16, had sneaked out of his bedroom window to purchase the game at a store against his father's orders. When he returned home, his parents caught him with the game and took it from him. His father, Mark, a minister at New Life Assembly of God in Wellington, put the game in a lockbox in a closet where he also kept a 9mm handgun, according to prosecutors.

About a month later, on Oct. 20, 2007, Daniel used his father's key to open the lockbox and remove the gun and the game. The boy shot his parents, killing his mother and gravely wounding his father. As his father lay wounded, Daniel tried to place the gun in his father's hand.

Petric, 45, said he "expected a pleasant surprise" and closed his eyes. Then his head went numb. As the blood poured from a bullet wound in his head, he realized his wife, Susan Petric, 43, was lying dead on a nearby loveseat, shot in the head, arms and chest. - Read article

Questions that I have for the Secret Service

1. Shouldn’t you have jumped in front of that shoe?
2. Shouldn’t you have jumped in front of that second shoe?
3. Second shoe = the one thrown after being removed from foot after first shoe was thrown.
4. Let’s say people had three feet. Would you have allowed a third shoe to fly unimpeded?
5. While the shoe was in the air, were you like, “Oh, its just a shoe.”
6. Same question about the second shoe.
7. Do you think this is funny, “Throw a shoe at me once, shame on–you. Throw a shoe–you throw a shoe, you can’t throw a shoe again.”
8. Is there not “protection training” for lunatics launching objects?
9. Let’s say there isn’t training for that–but do they tell you that if someone does throw (or shoot) something to be on the alert in case they want to repeat this behavior?
10. Where were you?

BONUS QUESTION: Do you think the Iraqis want us there? (Hint: their journalists are throwing their shoes at Bush)

The Colorado Springs infant survived surgery to remove what was believed to be a tumor when he was just 3 days old.

"The doctors said to us, 'This one is for the books,' " mom Tiffnie Esquibel said.

Inside the microscopic tumor was what looked like the formations of two feet, a hand and thigh.

"To find a perfectly formed structure (like this) is extremely unique, unusual, borderline unheard of," said Dr. Paul Grabb, the veteran pediatric neurosurgeon who performed the operation on Sam at Colorado Springs' Memorial Hospital for Children.

List of motor yachts by length

Wikipedia:

This is a list of the world's longest motor luxury yachts in order of their length. While length closely correlates with other measures of size such as tonnage (a measure of volume), or accommodation area, or displacement (a measure of yacht's weight), the correspondence is not exact, and the rankings should not be taken as a definitive ranking of size.

Whilst many businesses and organisations use length as an indication of the general trend, and the below is fascinating for the lay person, the true statistic of a yacht's size is its gross tonnage. Not to be confused with weight/displacement, this is in fact a measurement of a vessel's volume, what it can carry and accommodate.

Here's the top 5:

1. Roman Abramovich - 548'22" (167.1m) - Eclipse
2. Sheikh of Dubai - 524'10" (160m) - Dubai
3. Sultan Qaboos of Oman - 508'53" (155m) - Al Said
4. King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia - 482'3" (147m) - Prince Abdulaziz
5. Crown Prince Sultan of Saudi Arabia - 456'10" (139m) - Al Salamah
