Snake dies after biting silicone breast

London: A huge snake died of silicone poisoning after it bit the enhanced breast of a model during a photoshoot.

Israeli Orit Fox was at a photoshoot in Tel Aviv in which she alluringly used the boa constrictor. The snake suddenly lunged at her and bit her breast, the Daily Mail reported Monday.

Fox was initially comfortable with the snake and wrapped it around her legs, waist and neck.

She then licked the snake, loosening the grip on its neck. The snake then sank its fangs into her left breast.

The model screamed for help, and an assistant struggled to pull off the determined snake. After a few seconds, the snake released its grip.

Though Fox needed a tetanus shot in the hospital, it was the snake which came off worse as it died from silicone poisoning.

12-year-old on school trip delivers baby

Indo-Asian News Service, Updated: March 30, 2011 14:20 IST

London: A 12 year-old Dutch girl, who did not realise she was pregnant, delivered a baby girl when she was on a school trip.

"Neither the girl nor her family had realised she was pregnant, and there were no external signs to show it," the Telegraph quoted a spokesperson for health services as saying.

The girl was from Groningen in the north of the Netherlands.

She felt violent stomach pain when she was on a day out with her classmates last week.

A supervisor alerted the emergency services and when ambulance staff came they saw the girl was about to give birth, the media report said.

She was taken to a nearby building where she delivered her baby.

Both the child-mother and her new-born "are doing well" in the maternity ward of a hospital.

The barber who owns a Rolls

Ramesh Babu with his prized possession, the Rs 3.1 crore worth Rolls Royce Ghost, for which he pays an EMI of Rs 7 lakh

Like he has been doing every day for the past 25 years, Ramesh Babu spends at least five hours daily in his tastefully done but no-frills saloon in Bowring Institute, one of the city’s elite clubs. He personally styles the hair of his regular customers. As a professional barber, he doesn’t want to forget his roots.

On most days, however, Ramesh drives to work in an egg-white Rolls Royce Ghost, handling the controls on the car’s spiffy dashboard with the same deft touch and care as when he is shaping somebody’s coif. The Rolls costs Rs 3.1 crore and there are only five other people in Bangalore who own such a pedigreed car.

The 40-year-old bought the Rolls a few months back with his own hard-earnedmoney, supplemented by a huge bank loan with a monthly pay-back instalment of Rs 7 lakh. His earnings from the saloon are quite modest, but Ramesh, who networks well with the rich clientele of the elite Bowring Institute, has built a lucrative luxury car rental business.
But mainly, the man has a collector’s passion for fancy cars. And if there is some social prestige attached to it, then he’s not complaining.

“Let me enjoy the comfort of a Rolls Royce which was restricted to rajas and maharajas in the past,” Ramesh told Bangalore Mirror. Next year, Ramesh is planning to buy a stretch limousine worth around Rs 8 to 9 crore.

IN THE BIG LEAGUE
Currently, he has a fleet that includes Mercedes Benz (E,S and Viano series) and BMW (5 & 7 series). He hires out these cars to corporates through a travel agency. The Rolls, however, he rents out sparingly. He charges Rs 75,000 for a day for the Rolls when it is let out and his usual clients are corporate bigwigs and visiting Bollywood and Tollywood stars. The last High Net Worth Individual who hired his Rolls was Hero Honda’s chairman who was in town during the World Cup India-England clash.

The other notables in the city who own a Rolls include top builder Dayanand Pai, Royal Orchid Hotel’s owner Baljee and Gold Finch Hotel owner Prakash Shetty.

AMAZING STORY
When his father died in 1979, Ramesh, a nine year-old boy, was literally on the streets. The barber shop his father ran on Brigade Road’s St Patrick’s Complex was rented out for Rs 5 per day. Ramesh’s family survived on that money.

After completing SSLC, he quit studying and like his father became a full-time barber. He became a hair stylist subsequently. His fortunes changed in 1994, when taking a leaf from his uncle who rented out cars, be bought a a Maruti Omni van and started renting it out. From there began Ramesh’s tryst with cars. Even now, he has the Omni with him. In 1996, he started a saloon at Bowring Institute and has not looked back since.

IN THE FAMILY
Ramesh also owns a Suzuki Intruder high-end bike costing Rs 16 lakh. He rides this bike during weekends and it’s purely for his private use though occasionally he lets some of his close friends enjoy a ride. Meanwhile, his two-year-old son already seems to share his father’s passion. He effortlessly identifies each and every car in Ramesh’s fancy fleet.
Inside the saloon, as he dons his black overalls, Ramesh seamlessly makes the switch from Rolls Royce owner to barber.

“Even today, I cut the hair of my regular customers for just Rs 65. I can easily hike my rates but I don’t. It’s the family trade. And if I don’t cut someone’s hair on a particular day, I won’t be able to sleep,” Ramesh confessed. No matter that gleaming Rolls parked outside, his head surely is in the right place.

Two Idiots Name Their Baby Girl "Like" After the Facebook Button
Lior and Vardit Adler just had a baby girl. She’s probably all cute and wrinkly! But they hate her soo much that they named her Like, in honor of the Like button in Facebook. Of course, they explain it differently:

To me it is important to give my children names that are not used anywhere else, at least not in Israel. If once people gave Biblical names and that was the icon, then today this is one of the most famous icons in the world, he said, joking that the name could be seen as a modern version of the traditional Jewish name Ahuva, which means “beloved.”

I believe there will be people who will lift a eyebrow, but it is my girl and that’s what’s fun about it.

Yes, dear readers, you are totally right: These parents—who live in Hod Hasharon, a town north-east of Tel Aviv, Israel—are idiots. Idiots, idiots, idiots. Idiots. Idiots who named their first two children Dvash—Hebrew for honey—and Pie. Compared to Like, those names seem as normal as John and Jane.

When the German Press Agency asked the father if he thought the girl would “like” her name when she’s older, he replied that he hoped so, to then add: “By the way, I asked her, but she wouldn’t answer.”

As I was saying, idiot.

Perhaps this is a sign that the times they are a-changin’ and all that. It doesn’t make it any better. People have been naming their kids after other people forever. Music and film stars and even presidents and astronauts and superheroes. I can take that. You admire someone, you want to take that admiration onto your kid, even while he would hate you forever (I wish they called me Elvis, though). However, anyone who names their kids after a piece of junk should be slapped repeatedly, until their brains stop functioning. It shouldn’t be hard. And social services should take the kid away.

So, if you are going to have a baby, please don’t call her or him after any stupid Facebook button or any other technology or gadget or web service. Unless you use Google Doodle. Then you’ll have my blessing

And then we have this:

Last Updated: Thursday, July 24, 2008 | 9:06 AM ET CBC

A judge in New Zealand fed up with parents bestowing bizarre names on their offspring has given a girl named Talula Does the Hula From Hawaii the chance to change hers.

Judge Rob Murfitt has ruled that the girl, 9, become a ward of the court so her name can be changed. The girl was involved in a custody battle between her separated parents.

In his ruling made public Thursday, Murfitt expressed concern at the "very poor judgment" shown by the parents in selecting the moniker.

"It makes a fool of the child and sets her up with a social disability and handicap, unnecessarily," said Murfitt.

The court heard that the girl was so embarrassed by her name that she never even told her friends.

Instead, she told people to call her K, her lawyer told the family court in the port city of New Plymouth, located on the west coast of the North Island.

The ruling was made in February, but became public Thursday when it was published in law reports. The girl's new name will not be made public in order to protect her identity.

In his ruling, Murfitt cited a list of strange names given to children in New Zealand.

He said names blocked by registration officials included Yeah Detroit, Keenan Got Lucy and Sex Fruit, while Number 16 Bus Shelter and Violence were allowed.

New Zealand law does not allow names that would cause offence to a reasonable person, among other conditions, said Brian Clarke, the registrar general of births, deaths and marriages.

Clarke said officials usually talked to parents who proposed unusual names to convince them of the potential embarrassment for the child.

Number 16 bus shelter :lol2: :lol2:

Calling a kid "Like"? Can you imagine when the kid is 30 years old? That's like someone today going around called "Fax Machine" or "VCR".

That's not quite the same though. "Like" will still remain a word with its own meaning. Naming her "Facebook" or "Twitter" on the other hand...
