    Teenager Passes Out Marrying Sexy Cow

    A Balinese teenager caught in the act of intercourse with a cow passed out on Friday when he was forced to marry the animal in a ceremony witnessed by hundreds of curious onlookers.

    As the Jakarta Globe reported earlier in the day, Ngurah Alit, 18, an unemployed youth from the seaside village of Yeh Embang in Jembrana, was caught stark naked positioned behind the cow in a rice paddy field.

    In his defence, Alit admitted to the act of bestiality but claimed the cow, which he believed was a young and beautiful woman, had wooed him with flattering compliments.

    Poor Alit doesn't understand females. The cow only wanted to cuddle.

    Maybe the worst case of blue balls ever

    ROME — Italian police confiscated some 70,000 balls of mozzarella in Turin after consumers noticed the milky-white cheese quickly developed a bluish tint when the package was opened, authorities said Saturday.

    Agriculture Minister Giancarlo Galan ordered ministry laboratories to investigate what he called a "disturbing" development. [...]

    The mysterious blue mozzarella was the latest embarrassment for a food that is a point of pride for Italians and a staple in pizzas, panini and even the signature "caprese" salad in the red-white-and-green colors of the national flag — ripe tomatoes, creamy rich cheese and fragrant basil leaves.

    Most prized of all the mozzarella is the kind made from buffalo milk. But earlier this year, Italian agriculture authorities said some of the buffalo mozzarella, which comes from an area south of Rome, had fallen below standard after traces of cow's milk were found in it.

    Two years earlier, tests at hundreds of Italian mozzarella production plants found high levels of dioxin in some samples of buffalo milk. That scare led some countries to suspend imports.

    'Cannibal' trial opens in France

    A French convict has gone on trial for murdering and eating part of the body of his cell-mate.

    Nicolas Cocaign admitted to a court in Rouen that he killed his victim before cutting him open and removing part of his lung, which he then ate. [...]

    Prosecutors say Cocaign beat Baudry before stabbing him with a pair of scissors and then suffocating him with a plastic bag.

    He then allegedly cut him open, removing a rib and pulling out part of his lung, mistaking it for Baudry's heart.

    Before the trial, he had told investigators that he wanted to eat his victim's heart in order to take his soul.

    Chuwin the fat with Frank Chu. Professional Gadfly and Conspiracy Einstein extraordinare.

    One news report from 1985 quoted a police lieutenant as saying that Chu had a history of mental problems and had been prescribed medication.[1]
    A reporter in 2004 noted:
    “For at least a decade this guy has been doing this thing that he does, this thing that no one really understands. Now he has a club named after him, and, as 12 Galaxies' [Adam] Bergerson points out, he can drink and eat for free in a number of places around town. From the looks of it, he's also got plenty of genuine friends.

    CCTV appeal over 'animal semen' attacks

    Police have released CCTV footage of a man wanted after a substance thought to be animal semen was thrown on schoolgirls in Greater Manchester.

    Detectives have said four teenagers were targeted between November 2009 and January 2010 in Unsworth, Whitefield, Bury town centre and Prestwich.

    Each time a girl was approached by a man and later discovered a sticky white substance on her skirt or tights.

    The Nudists of Antarctica



    A BIZARRE nudist subculture has taken shape on the inhospitable, snowswept plains of Antarctica.

    Visitors of all nationalities defy an average temperature of -50C and take part in variations of the traditional nudie run, independent scholar and author Chris Cormick revealed yesterday.

    Dr Cormick spoke about the trend to the Antarctic Visions: Cultural Perspectives on the Southern Continent conference put on by the University of Tasmania this week.

    He said Australians based at all three stations, Davis, Casey and Mawson, take part in the traditional "Bliz Run", which obliges the loser of any bet or dare to strip off and run a lap of the accommodation block.

    "It's only about 100m, but even 10m would seem like a long run in the conditions," Dr Cormick said.

    New Zealanders at their summer station go skinny dipping in Lake Vanda, with a plunge in the chilly water earning membership of the Royal Lake Vanda Swim Club.

    The group is rumoured to include former NZ Prime Minister Helen Clark, who gained membership before she was elected.

    Americans at the Amundsen-Scott base can regularly be seen emerging from the sauna to run a naked lap of the South Pole.

    The deed earns membership of the 300 Club, but only if it's done when temperatures have plunged to below -100F.

    "The idea is to run from the 200F sauna, outside, so they go through 300 degrees (F) in seconds," Dr Cormick said.

    He said he felt compelled to speak because although the practice was widely participated in, it was not officially recorded.

    "Historians, authors and researchers depend on official records, but just because it isn't in the official records doesn't mean it's not happening," Dr Cormick said.

    He visited Antarctica on an Australian Antarctic Arts Fellowship in 2008, but declined to reveal whether he participated in a Bliz Run himself.

    "There is also a strong culture of what happens on the ice stays on the ice," he said.

    I guess the polar ice cap isn't the only thing diminishing over there...

    RTW, 167 BC: Rome expels Greek philosophers after the Lex Fannia law is passed. This bans the effete and nasty Greek practice of 'philosophy' in favour of more manly, properly Roman pursuits that don't involve quite so much thinking.

    14 cats maybe, but 15 cats loose in your car? [Will Smith voice:] Aw, hell no!



    SIOUX FALLS, S.D. -- The South Dakota Supreme Court has ruled that a police officer acted correctly when he seized 15 cats from a woman who was driving with the animals running free inside her car.

    In a 3-2 decision Thursday, the justices ruled that the felines were a distraction and interfered with driver Patricia Edwards' ability to see where she was going.

    Men shoot each other "to see if it hurts"

    HORSHAM, Australia, June 23 -- Police in Australia said two men dubbed "dumb and dumber" by investigators shot each other with an air rifle to see whether it would hurt. [...]

    Police said the two men shot each other at about 5:30 p.m. and apparently believed they had escaped injury until two days later when they were hospitalized with pain and had pellets surgically removed from their legs and buttocks.

    Investigators said they revoked a firearms license held by one of the men and took away his guns.

    Couple attempts to sell baby at Walmart (and at a really great price!)



    SALINAS, Calif. – A California couple faces child endangerment charges after police say they tried to sell their 6-month-old baby for $25 outside a Walmart store.

    Salinas police spokesman, Officer Lalo Villegas, said Thursday that Patrick Fousek, 38, and Samantha Tomasini, 20, were arrested early Wednesday, hours after Fousek allegedly approached two women outside Walmart and asked if they'd like to purchase his child.

    The women initially thought Fousek was joking, but when he became persistent, they became suspicious and reported it to police, Villegas said.
