Sections of the roof at the Hekili Outrigger Canoe Club in Cairns, Australia, are breaking off due to the amorous adventures of some very large snakes.According to the Cairns Post newspaper, up to six pythons, all at least 3.5 metres long, are getting busy in the roof of a boat shed. It's believed one of the sex-crazed serpents is a 7-metre-long female named Nigini, that has eluded capture more than once.A coach at Hekili told the Post one of the snakes startled a club member when it was seen poking out of the ceiling of the shed.Two of the pythons have been caught by a snake catcher and will be released into the wild. But the others are ensconced in narrow parts of the roof that makes them unreachable.

Lucky-Man survives in trunk after car plunges into river
SALMON, Idaho - A Washington state man was listed in satisfactory condition on Monday and was "incredibly lucky to be alive" after his car flipped into a river near the Idaho-Washington border, authorities said. Ned Florea, 20, squeezed through the rear seats and into the trunk of his two-door Hyundai Tiburon as chill, fast-flowing waters engulfed all but 6 inches of head room, creating a life-saving air pocket, Idaho State Trooper Leslie Lehman said. Rescuers estimated that Florea was in the Pend Oreille River for nearly an hour after the accident, which happened about 11 p.m. on Saturday after his car veered off a northern Idaho roadway and plunged into the water. A passenger, Keefer Peterson, 18, of Oldtown, Idaho, managed to swim free of the submerged car but later could not recollect how he escaped, Lehman said.

What-'Nail technician' job advert causes confusion among beauticians
Dozens of people applied for the nail technician role advertised in the Sentinel newspaper, however, the local builder was looking for someone to sort through and organise excess stock, rather than a trained beautician to perform manicures and other treatments. A wide range of applicants put their name forward for the position, some with as much as seven years experience in the beauty industry.However, people could be forgiven for being confused by the ad, which read: 'Good rates of pay and flexible working hours on offer. Previous nail experience preferable but not essential.' A spokesperson for LocalTraders.com, which placed the advert, said the dual meaning of the word nail did not occur to them at first, however, the error soon became clear when the applications came pouring in.
