Daredevil- Lovers share picnic on the edge of 800ft cliff


Anyone wants to try…



The pair had carefully crawled right to the end of Australian landmark Hanging Rock, where the sandstone is only a few centimetres wide. Photographer Michael Matthews was amazed to see the duo so far out on the narrow rock formation, overlooking the Grose River Gorge in the Blue Mountains of New South Wales. He said: ‘They even had a hug and a kiss out there but were being extremely careful.’ Matthews, 54, had driven from his home in Sydney, having seen an image of the Hanging Rock on a postage stamp. ‘I decided that I had to see it for myself,’ he said.
Matthews reached a viewpoint known as Baltzers Lookout but still couldn’t see the landmark – which shares its name with another Australian feature made famous by the book Picnic At Hanging Rock: ‘I felt quite vulnerable up there. There were no fences and a wind was blowing. I felt it would be easy to get blown off the cliff if you got too close to the edge.’ (ww.metro.co.uk)

What-Pepper-sprayed patient closes ER


How this happen….?

ST. CATHARINES, Ont. — the hospital emergency room in this southern Ontario city was shut down late Sunday when a man arrived covered in pepper spray.The substance was so noxious, eight staff members and six patients reported burning eyes and throat irritation.
One nurse, who treated the man and had no time to don protective gear, was given first aid, said Anne Atkinson, the Niagara Health System's vice-president patient services.
"It was a significant amount (of pepper spray) and staff and other patients had burning of the eyes," she said.Ambulances were diverted to other hospitals for about an hour to allow staff to "safely manage that patient and decontamination," Atkinson said.Atkinson said she could not identify the patient nor disclose the circumstances that brought him to the emergency room citing patient confidentiality rules.Police could not confirm if they were investigating the man.
"Our staff responded immediately and rendered care even though there was an acknowledgment there was a hazardous substance," she said. (QMI)



Rare-Snake stores sperm 5 years, gives birth


Very nice achievement…

A rare case of a snake giving birth after being in captivity for five years has led geneticists to confirm for the first time that reptiles can store sperm for several years.According to New Scientist magazine; the female rattlesnake was in a private collection in Florida and had no contact with other snakes during that time. But late last year, it gave birth to 19 snakelets.
To study the phenomenon, Warren Booth of North Carolina State University in Raleigh took DNA samples from the mother and her young. Booth studies "virgin birth," in which a female produces young without any contribution from a male.But in this case the snakelets carried genes that their mother didn't, so she must have mated before being captured and stored the sperm, he concluded.Booth told New Scientist he suspects other reptiles can store sperm even longer."How long is anyone's guess," he said.(QMI)

Why-Sexy, religious images spotted on new money

 

Canada's new plastic money may give you a little more bang for your buck.

New documents show a focus group mistook a strand of DNA on the $100 bill for a sex toy.
Most people also thought the see-through window on the new polymer notes was shaped like the contours of a woman's body.Others looked into the port holes of a famed Canadian icebreaker and saw a skull and crossbones staring back at them.These are just some of the offbeat images focus groups thought they saw on the plastic bank notes that go into circulation next month.
Internal documents show the Bank of Canada fretted that Canadians would find all kinds of unintended images on the new bills. So the bank used focus groups to spot "potential controversies."Security features stir imagination"The overall purpose of the research was to disaster check the $50 and $100 notes among the general public and cash handlers," says a January report to the central bank. Clockface or religious symbol.Every focus group thought they saw religious iconography on the face of the Peace Tower clock."It was often described as 'The Star of David.' Others referred to it as a 'pagan' or 'religious' symbol," the document says.
"This evoked a response that suggested that the depiction of religious icons on Canadian bank notes was strongly resisted."The research also raised red flags about the new $50 bill.
