Boy with 24 fingers and toes

Photobucket



A 12-year-old boy with 12 fingers and 12 toes won't be having surgey to remove his extra digits - because they are not affecting the functions of his hands and feet.

Ouyang Guangchun, from Songpo village in southern China's Hunan province, is the only member of his family with the condition known as polydactylism.

It is not unusual for children to be born with additional digits, but it is rare for the extra digits to look and function normally.

Guangchun's mother said: "If people don't look at his hands or feet carefully, they can hardly tell any unusualness, as the extra digits are growing so naturally with the others."

Strangely, three months before the birth of Guangchun, his family's sow also labored a weird shaped piglet, which had eight legs, two mouths and four ears.

"The pig died two days later. It possibly was a bad omen to the family, leading to the birth of my son with extra fingers and toes," the mother added.

High School Cheerleader Tackles Thief

A would-be thief is behind bars. Police didn't catch him and neither did mall security. They both had help from a 16-year-old girl.

Watch the video at left and take a good long look at 16-year-old Kealey Oliver; she is one talented cheerleader.

"If I would have thought about it, I probably wouldn't have done it."

She traded tumbling for tackling when she brought down a thief at Penn Square Mall in Oklahoma last weekend.

"I just wasn't going to, like, let him run right past me."

The rising high school junior cheers for the Moore High School Lions. She was at the mall talking to her mother on her cell phone when suddenly a man started running her way.

"I was like, 'Hang on Mom,' and I put the phone down. When he got close to me, I just got in his way and grabbed him and he kept trying to run so I just slammed him on the ground."

By slamming him to the ground she gave mall security the chance to catch up.

"I grabbed him and then put him on his stomach and I was still holding on to him. I don't even know."

She didn't even know what she had done. High School Playbook wanted to know, "What was she thinking?"

"I didn't think. I was shaking. I was like nervous. I didn't know why I did that," Kealey Oliver smiles in amazement.

She got a scratch on her arm and bruised her left knee. And to top it off, she did it all in a dress.

"I was in a strapless dress, yes."

Kealey told all her friends and even posted her story on facebook.

We called Penn Square Mall but got no comment. Police confirmed a shop-lifter was arrested around this time.

To Kealey, it's really no big deal.

"At first, I thought I was just going to stop him, but he kept running. So I was like, okay, I guess you're going to the ground."

Leave your comments below for the cheerleader who suddenly became the hero. (But don't try this at home.)

Teacher Faces Sex Assault Charge For Allegedly Spanking Student

An Enfield Connecticut High School technology teacher has been arrested on sexual assault charges for allegedly spanking a student who was visiting his class, according to court records.

Francis Hajosy, 54, of Stafford, is charged with fourth-degree sexual assault and breach of peace. He was arrested Tuesday and arraigned in superior court Wednesday, where he was released on $5,000 bail.

An arrest warrant affidavit states the student was visiting Hajosy's class on June 9 but was not a student in the class Hajosy was teaching at the time.

While the student was sitting in the class with her feet up on a desk, Hajosy walked up behind her and said "You know, you're not too big for me to put over my knee and spank," the affidavit states.

The student then picked up a can of "spray glue" and sprayed it into the air, and did it a second time after Hajosy told her to stop. The teacher then put his hands on the student's neck and shoulders, and she tried to kick Hajosy to get him to release his grip, the affidavit states.

After she tried to pull Hajosy's hands off her shoulders, Hajosy sat down next to her, lifted her legs in the air off the desk and spanked the student twice, the affidavit states. After she told him to stop, he spanked her twice more, the affidavit states.

Judge Richard Dyer issued a protective order in the case, court records show.

"I'm following state law here, so right now he's suspended [with pay]," said Superintendent John Gallacher on Thursday. "That suspension is standing until we have more information or an investigation."

Gallacher said Hajosy was hired in 1999 as a technology education teacher. He said the district would be in touch with Hajosy but said he could not comment further because the incident is now considered a personnel matter.

GOD ENJOYS A GOOD LAUGH!

There were 3 good arguments that Jesus was Black:
1. He called everyone brother.
2. He liked Gospel.
3. He didn't get a fair trial.

But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was Jewish:
1. He went into His Father's business.
2. He lived at home until he was 33.
3. He was sure his Mother was a virgin and his Mother was sure He was God.


But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was Italian:
1. He talked with His hands.
2. He had wine with His meals.
3. He used olive oil.


But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was a Californian:
1. He never cut His hair.
2. He walked around barefoot all the time.
3. He started a new religion.


But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was an American Indian:
1. He was at peace with nature.
2. He ate a lot of fish.
3. He talked about the Great Spirit.

But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was Irish:
1. He never got married.
2. He was always telling stories.
3. He loved green pastures.

But the most compelling evidence of all - 3 proofs that Jesus was a woman:
1. He fed a crowd at a moment's notice when there was virtually no food.
2. He kept trying to get a message across to a bunch of men who just didn't get it.
3. And even when He was dead, He had to get up because there was still work to do.


Can I get an AMEN!!

Squirrel the other dark meat ..jumping off supermarket shelves in England

squirrel

The owner of a local Budgens supermarket has defended selling squirrel meat as a sustainable way of feeding people and says it has a "lovely" taste. Andrew Thornton, started selling the meat about five months ago after requests from customers at his Budgens store in Crouch End, north London. "There are too many squirrels around, we might as well eat them rather than cull them and dispose of them," he said. Thornton sells up to 15 squirrels a week when they are in stock.

The animal welfare group Viva accused Budgens of profiting from a "wildlife massacre". Its founder and director, Juliet Gellatley, said: "If this store is attempting to stand out from the crowd by selling squirrel, the only message they are giving out is that they are happy to have the blood of a beautiful wild animal on their hands for the sake of a few quid." Thornton rejected the claim: "That's not the case at all. If we are selling 10 or 15 a week I don't think that falls into the definition of a massacre."

He predicted more people would eat squirrel in the future. "I think it's lovely. It's bit like rabbit. I think there will be a lot of fuss about this now, but in a few years it will become accepted practice that we eat squirrels. People don't bat an eyelid now about eating rabbit," he said. Thornton buys the meat from a game supplier in Suffolk, the Wild Meat Company, but said he hadn't stocked it for several weeks because the firm had run out of squirrel while it focused on other game products. "We would like to get it back on shelves as soon as we can. We are a mainstream supermarket but we take a very strong sustainability stance," he said.

"We got into it because we had requests from customers. There are a lot of people who understand sustainability issues around here." Thornton claimed that squirrel meat is more sustainable than beef. "It takes about 15 tonnes of grain to produce one tonne of beef, which is not sustainable. "Squirrels will be culled anyway. You have two choices. Either you dispose of them or you eat them."

Got the $$$$$$..Get Yourself an Unusual Pet

Now you can buy tame foxes from Siberia in the US

Tame foxes are becoming better known and desired; however, there has been no official representation of Siberian tame foxes previously.

Genuine tame foxes come from Institute of Cytology and Genetics in Novosibirsk, Russia and are officially distributed by SibFox Inc.

Foxes can live outside or inside.They need shade from excessive heat and rain. A bed or blanket is nice, but optional.

If the fox lives outside, the cage should have a bottom or the walls of the cage should be dug in deep enough so that the fox cannot dig a hole and escape. Inside your house, they will snuggle on a bed like a cat.

$5,950.
