I don't know if the safety device was on. It's not impossible the dog could have taken it off safety."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mr Potter said the man was hit from about 10 feet away with 27 pellets of birdshot during the incident at the Bear River Migratory Bird Refuge.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He wasn't seriously injured, in part because he was wearing waders or thick, waterproof trousers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The men called 911 and walked to a nearby main road to wait for emergency crews.

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;The 5.7 magnitude earthquake struck at 11:46 P.M. Monday night about nine miles outside of Trinidad, Colo., which is located on Colorado's border with New Mexico.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;The U.S. Geological Survey revealed that Trinidad, Colo.; Raton, N.M.; Colorado Springs, Colo.; and La Junta, Colo. were among the most impacted regions.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;The earthquake, though severe by Colorado standards, did not cause any major destruction or injuries save for some minor structural damage at homes near the epicenter and minor damages to highways nearby.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;It did, however, disrupt Colorado residents, many of whom called or checked online to find out what was happening.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;"I thought maybe a car had hit my house. Then I called to my son and he said it was the third (quake) today," an elderly Trinidad resident told the Colorado Springs Gazette.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;Colorado is considered a region of minor earthquake activity. The strongest recorded in modern times is a 6.6-magnitude earthquake in 1882, which was felt as far as Salt Lake City, Utah, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;In 1901, an earthquake cracked windows and rolled boulders onto the highway. In 1944, an earthquake cracked walls and chimneys. In 1967 and 1973, Colorado experienced strong earthquakes. However, unlike Monday's natural earthquake, they were ultimately determined to have been man-made.

A New York-based designer has invented a solar-powered bikini so wearers can charge their iPod or camera as they lie in the sun.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Andrew Schneider, 30, sewed together 40 paper-thin photo-voltaic panels together with soft conductive thread to produce his iKini which comes complete with USB ports sewn into the fabric.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mr Schneider told the International Business Times that he came up with the idea during a brainstorming session at New York University.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"I didn't really have anything exciting so I leaned over to my friend and just jokingly said that I was going to make a bikini that could cool your beer at the beach," he said.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He then decided there was some merit in the idea and started work on developing a prototype - before realising there were an important stumbling block.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"The original bikini didn't have enough surface area to kick out the juice necessary to... cool the beer, so I downgraded to a lower power device. I plugged in my iPod and it worked," he said.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He is now selling the iKinis with prices ranging from £300 to £900 with each one custom-built and tailor-made for the wearer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The designer now plans to go back to his original idea by developing shorts for men that can keep drinks cold.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"We're currently building and testing prototypes for the iDrink.

With the help of a special harness, he can even take steps on a treadmill and can move his lower extremities for the first time in years. It was all made possible by a spinal implant that emits small pulses of electricity, designed to replicate signals that the brain usually sends to coordinate movement. Prior to receiving the implant in 2009, Summers underwent two years of training on a treadmill, with a harness supporting his weight and researchers moving his legs. This week's breakthrough comes after 30 years of research, though scientists acknowledge that this brand of epidural stimulation still needs to be tested on a broader sample of subjects before any definitive conclusions can be drawn. Summers, meanwhile, seems understandably elated. "This procedure has completely changed my life," the former baseball player said. "To be able to pick up my foot and step down again was unbelievable, but beyond all of that my sense of well-being has changed." We can only imagine.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;                                                                            &lt;div class="post_via "&gt; &lt;img class="img_label" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.engadget.com/media/post_label_VIA.gif" alt="" /&gt;&lt;span class="caption"&gt;&lt;a href="http://medicalxpress.com/news/2011-05-implant-breakthrough-paraplegic-legs-voluntarily.html"&gt;MedicalXpress&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;                              &lt;img class="img_label" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.engadget.com/media/post_label_source.gif" alt="source" /&gt;&lt;span class="caption"&gt;&lt;a href="http://louisville.edu/uofltoday/campus-news/uofl-research-helps-paraplegic-man-stand-regain-leg-use"&gt;University of Louisville&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/627655772635270639-9001653511302893189?l=da-crazyworld.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://da-crazyworld.blogspot.com/2011/05/paralyzed-man-can-stand-and-walk-again.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Anung)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-l-CSpkanE9Y/TdgJw22stbI/AAAAAAAADTw/hOEa30KO0ZI/s72-c/rob-summers.jpg" height="72" width="72" /><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-627655772635270639.post-8560956996380610137</guid><pubDate>Mon, 16 May 2011 18:49:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2011-05-16T11:52:21.187-07:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">crime</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">celebrity</category><title>Cassidy Arrested In New Jersey, Suspected Of Murder</title><description>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-yMjWJ1szSd8/TdFx7yl0HOI/AAAAAAAADRI/QT5b1kfIFXU/s1600/cassidy.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 215px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-yMjWJ1szSd8/TdFx7yl0HOI/AAAAAAAADRI/QT5b1kfIFXU/s320/cassidy.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5607388283059576034" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Philadelphia rapper Cassidy has reportedly been arrested by New Jersey cops Saturday (May 14) while traveling in the Garden State on an arrest warrant.&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The Philadelphia Police warrant squad called the Hackensack Police Department on Saturday morning to tell officers there was an open warrant for Hackensack resident Barry Reese, also known as the rapper Cassidy, Hackensack police Lt. &lt;strong&gt;Timothy Lloyd&lt;/strong&gt; said.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt; &lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;"The warrant was for violating probation, but Reese is also a suspect in a murder and two attempted murders in Philadelphia, Lloyd said.

Shaolin monks are hoping to improve China's poor football performance with a new training school which combines football with kung fu.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Shi Yanlu, head of the venture at the world famous Shaolin Temple, says he believes the disciplines of kung fu will benefit young footballers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He has selected 40 young monks to train at the school under the supervision of martial arts experts and former international footballers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yanlu said: "Right now, China's football performance is really disappointing. We hope by combining kung fu elements and spirit, Chinese football can perform better."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As well as regular football training, the monks focus on aspects of the martial art, such as balance and leg strength, which will make them better footballers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"They have superb physical qualities, and they are learning things very quickly. We will try to meld the kung fu into the football training, hopefully improving the level of Chinese football," added Yanlu.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"The kids here all have a spirit of hard-work.

This could be an optional treatment for them," she said.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Her study, published in the Journal of Sexual Medicine, involved experiments using hypertensive rats with severe erectile dysfunction.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"The toxin was able to normalise the erectile dysfunction in these animals," said Dr Nunes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, further research is required. Other side-effects can include loss of muscle control, severe pain, difficulty breathing and death.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dr Nunes added: "The venom of the Phoneutria nigriventer spider is a very rich mixture of several molecules.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"These molecules are called toxins, and then we have various toxins in this venom with different activity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Because of this, when a human is bitten by this spider, we can observe many different symptoms including priapism, a condition in which the penis is continually erect."&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/627655772635270639-573301227194283936?l=da-crazyworld.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://da-crazyworld.blogspot.com/2011/03/spider-bite-causes-four-hour-erection.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Anung)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-_7N8PODtW3U/TYd68lDkKnI/AAAAAAAAC4E/V33dXPM3C7E/s72-c/brazilian_wandering_spider_rex.jpg" height="72" width="72" /><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-627655772635270639.post-5126314086674770435</guid><pubDate>Mon, 21 Mar 2011 14:02:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2011-03-21T08:45:10.947-07:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">crazy</category><title>Immigration officer put wife on terror list</title><description>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-9VNnkdPKak8/TYdyYDo9PvI/AAAAAAAAC38/VJNxLGT6M34/s1600/passport_control_pa.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 352px; height: 198px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-9VNnkdPKak8/TYdyYDo9PvI/AAAAAAAAC38/VJNxLGT6M34/s320/passport_control_pa.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5586559620395908850" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;An immigration officer was so sick of his wife that he put her on a terrorist watch list - ­so she couldn't get home from Pakistan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The officer added her name to the register of people banned from flights into the UK while she was visiting family overseas, reports The Mirror.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When she went to the airport to get her return flight back, officials told her she could not board the plane and did not ­explain why.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She called her husband, who ­promised to look into it - but left her stuck in Pakistan for three years while he had the "time of his life".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;An immigration source said: "A lot of people may dislike their other halves but to do this takes it to the next level.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Needless to say she was confused when she got to the airport as she had never been involved in anything criminal or terrorist related.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"She obviously thought her husband, being an immigration officer, would be able to find out what was going on.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Little did she know it was him who had put her on the list.
