Man stuck head-first in drain after dropping wallet

newslite--21-year-old Jared Medeiros had apparently climbed into the manhole head first after dropping his wallet and found himself unable to climb back out.

Police were first on the scene - after Jared had been in there about 40 minutes - but despite their best efforts the "slightly intoxicated" man could not be removed.

It then fell to firefighters to rescue him and pull him free from the tight spot. He was soon released to his mother with minor scrapes and bruises. There was no news on the wallet.The wonderfully worded police report said: "Ceres Officers responded to the 2200 Block of Hale Aloha Way for a report of a person flailing his legs from the ground."The officers arrived and discovered two legs kicking outside of a manhole".

Indian Child Born with 34 Fingers and Toes

Ten fingers. Ten toes. And another 14 tossed in for good measure. A one-year old boy in India is now a record holder as Guinness has recognized his 34 fingers and toes as the most belonging to anyone in the world.





Young Akshat Saxena, from Uttar Pradesh in northern India, has a condition known as polydactylism, a congenital anomaly that litterally means “many fingers.” In the case of Akshat, it involves his fingers and toes.
Upon seeing her child, the boy’s mother Amrita was “shocked and surprised.” The doctor revealed that her son had broken the world record, beating out a Chinese boy with a combined 31 digits. This was confirmed when they hopped online and registered the data.
Doctors have performed a number of surgeries to remove the extra digits, though a distinct lack of thumbs have required them to construct them from scratch out of the removed fingers.source:weirdasiannews By Lycurgus

Javier Pastore has joined Paris St Germain


Palermo president Maurizio Zamparini claims sought-after midfielder Javier Pastore has joined Paris St Germain, ending Chelsea's pursuit of the Argentinian.
Zamparini has revealed that a €43million (£37.5m) deal was struck late on Friday for the 22-year-old to join the Parc des Princes club.
Chelsea were thought to be chasing the talented youngster's signature but it appears they have been beaten to the punch by the Ligue 1 outfit.
The swoop is yet to be officially confirmed by the two sides, while Palermo sources had earlier said that the Argentina international's agent was still negotiating with the Blues over a move.
But Zamparini told Radio Radio on Saturday:"[We] closed the deal last night (Friday) around midnight.
"Basically it's the official transfer of Pastore to Paris St Germain based on a €43m fee."
Pastore has been regarded as one of European football's hottest properties since netting 11 goals from midfield in 35 Serie A matches last season.
It is thought the youngster will put pen to paper on a five-year deal at the Ligue 1 side.source :skysportsBy Nadia Carminati

World's Worst Predictions

Theoretically, television may be feasible, but I consider it an impossibility--a development which we should waste little time dreaming about.
- Lee de Forest, 1926, inventor of the cathode ray tube

I think there is a world market for maybe five computers.

It doesn't matter what he does, he will never amount to anything.

The African leader is proudly showing off his new modish presidential limousine



presidents car
Obama’s Cadillac has an executive package featuring a foldaway desktop, laptop computer with wi-fi, state of the art satellite phone and a direct line to the vice president and the Pentagon. Defense accessories include night vision cameras and weapon. Also bottles of the president’s blood are kept on board in case he needs and emergency transfusion.



Earlier president Barack Obama showed off his new three-ton Cadillac limousine, dubbed “The Monster” by American journalists, a worthy representative of the classy presidential car. Also President Medvedev rolled out in style with his presidential car known as the “Behemoth”. African leader shows off his new diplomatic yet stylish limousine not to be one upped by his counterparts from around the world. The new Vehicle for the African President was compliments of left over capital this year.
Normally the main requirement for the presidential car is safety. Usually with glass thickness of 60 mm a floor which can withstand grenade explosion, even if it exploded directly under the bottom, thick doors weighing less than 100 kg, and riddled buses can travel at least 100 miles at speeds up to 100 km / h.
Obama has secret compartments with laptops, GPS, satellite phones, extra blood and even weapons up front in his presidential limo. Medvedev’s Iron fortress contains similar bells and whistles matching that of Obama’s car. The African limo has much cooler goodies like no top at all, cell phone, 2 sling shots, a small bag of rocks and femur bone of a wildebeest for cracking noggins. This cool new limo will certainly make world news and leave many world leaders pouting with envy.

New African presidential car
The African leader is proudly showing off his new modish presidential limousine which was afforded due to the great economical year end he helped to bring to his people. Notice the all the African secret service which completely surrounds the official guaranteeing his complete safety from harm. Don’t forget, this incredible feat of engineering comes with sling shots and wildebeest leg bone if protesters get rough.
