Paraplegic David Blancarte healed by miracle spider bite

This seems to be an amazing story, but I am sure that CNN would not have run it if it didn’t have some form of truth to it. You make up your own mind.

2 handcuffed prisoners try to pole dance their way to freedom

Video: YouTube

These 2 prisoners tried to outrun the law, only trouble is they didn’t count on their own stupidity (and a pole) getting in the way. Maybe next time they will look both ways and straight ahead before crossing the road.

Atlantis The Palm, Dubai

Video: YouTube

Dubai has become known for it’s opulence and the latest addition is The Atlantis The Palm Hotel. Apparently it cost approximately 2 Billion Australian Dollars to build and they spent something like 30 Million Dollars just to put on a opening ceremony.

I am sure that they will make their money back and much more, I just went online to book a few nights at the hotel and the price per room is between 2100 and 6500 United Arab Emirates Dirham (AED) and these prices did not include a 10% Service fee and 10% municipality fee. So if you are an Aussie expect to pay in the order of $1000 to $3000 per room per night.

Large Hadron Collider

Large Hadron Collider part 1

It’s finally happening, they are testing out the particle exelerator and we are all waiting with baited breath to see if we are still all going to be here tomorrow. No need to worry if you read a quote from CNET news as shown below.

Remember the fear that the Trinity test of the first atomic bomb in 1945 might ignite the atmosphere? The Large Hadron Collider, a massive particle accelerator 17 miles in circumference that will begin operation Wednesday, comes with its own apocalyptic possibility: teensy black holes with gravitational appetites voracious enough to swallow the Earth.
Images: Where particles, physics theories collide

But you can breathe easy, because some scientists believe that worry is just as baseless as the A-bomb’s flaming atmosphere.

Robbie Maddison’s 322 ft, world record jump on ESPN

Video: YouTube

As a child I was a huge fan of Evel Knievel and his exploits. He was an amazing guy who went for his goals no matter what the risk to life and limb.

Robbie Maddison seems to opitimize the same ideals as Evel Knievel had all those years ago, I have to wonder though how much further Evel would have jumped these days given the improvements in the new bikes.

This is an awesome jump by Robbie and he really sticks the landing as well.

Conspiracy theories? (who knows what really happened).

I’m just going to put this video on and let you all make up your own mind as to what really happened on September 11, 2001.

Burger King Employee Takes Bath In Sink

This must be about the most expensive bath ever, seems this guy lost his job after management found out about his little episode.

Ingesting Magic Mushrooms has Long Lasting Positive Effects…

Video: YouTube

No wonder they’re illegal… “spiritual significants and sustained positive changes in behavior”.

But the presenter talks about Timothy Leary allegedly claiming, that Timothy used the phrase, with regards to his own experiences, as a “mushroom induced psychotic trip”… somehow I don’t see Leary expressing his experience as a “mushroom induced psychotic trip”.

As for her “Hippie dippie 60s” jibe… a presenter who can’t get her facts straight and was not even alive in the 60s or 70s, and who’s probably basing her evaluation, on a series of presenters before her, who have gone sooo far from reporting the news, to rather producing the ‘news’ (ala Bill O’reilly’s FOX ‘news’)… that they, like Bill, have absolutely no creditability as far as I, and many others are concerned.

See two can play that game, actually she is just a presenter… she’s not responsible for the script, she probably doesn’t even know any better, but those behind the scenes probably know which side their bread’s buttered, and most likely have little or no conscience, which allows them to willingly, not only sell out themselves, but everyone else for their 30 pieces of silver… it’s amazing what Murdoch can buy for small change eh?
