Stramash Posted October 11, 2011 Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 [h=1]Lucky lottery couple reveals what they will buy with £101m[/h] The lucky British couple who scooped the £101m EuroMillions jackpot have revealed what they will spend their money on - which includes making their friends millionaires too. At a press conference, prizewinners Dave andAngela Dawes, of Wisbech, Cambridgeshire, said that they will purchase a house in Chelsea close to the ground of the football team MrDawes, 47, a shift supervisor at Premier Foods, supports. Angela Dawes, 43, who is a volunteer for theBritish Heart Foundation, told reporters that her father wanted a 1926 Rolls Royce Silver Ghost even though he is unable to drive. A new diamond engagement ring and a house in Portugal near to where Mrs Dawes' parents live are also on their wish list.The couple plan to splash out on a trip to Las Vegas and a skiing holiday in Switzerland in the coming months. After winning the jackpot, the Dawes said that they drew up a list of 15-20 people of who they wanted to give the money to. They are also deciding which charities to support. The couple, who made a life-changing decision to go public, won the UK's third largest lottery prize and are now ranked among the richest people in the UK. [Blog: Why do lottery winners go public?] The Dawes are following in the footsteps of Scottish EuroMillions winners Colin and Chris Weir, who were criticised for going public with their massive £161m winning in July. At the moment, the unmarried couple, who have been together for four years, live in a modest one bedroom flat. Angela said that she had changed her last name to Dawes off her own back because they couldn't afford to get married straight away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FarangFarang Posted October 12, 2011 Report Share Posted October 12, 2011 Mind-blowing sex actually can wipe memory cleanBy Stephanie Pappas LiveScience A 54-year-old woman showed up in the emergency room at Georgetown University Hospital with her husband, unable to remember the past 24 hours. Her newer memories were hazy, too. One thing she did recall: Her amnesia had started right after having sex with her husband just an hour before. While sex can be forgettable or mind-blowing, for some people, it can quite literally be both at the same time. The woman, whose case was reported in the September issue of The Journal of Emergency Medicine, was experiencing transient global amnesia, a rare condition in which memory suddenly, temporarily, disappears. People with transient global amnesia suffer no side effects, and the memory problems usually reverse themselves in the span of a few hours. It's a rare condition, affecting only about 3 to 5 people per 100,000 each year. But what makes transient global amnesia so eerie is that researchers aren't sure what causes it, or why patients remain otherwise chatty and alert while missing large chunks of their memories. [inside the Brain: A Journey Through Time] "We don't know very much about the cause," said Sebastian Ameriso, a neurologist at the Institute for Neurological Research in Buenos Aires, who was not involved in the 54-year-old woman's case. "It causes a lot of alarm, but this is not a stroke or an event that causes damage to the brain. It's almost always very benign." Mind-erasing activities Sex can trigger transient global amnesia, as can other physically strenuous activities. People in their 50s and 60s are the most likely to experience an episode, but strangely, most people with transient global amnesia have it only once. In most cases, the amnesia is anterograde, meaning people have trouble forming new memories. Sometimes, people also experience transient retrograde amnesia, forgetting some portion of their previous memories. In the case of the 54-year-old woman at the Washington, D.C., hospital, the last day was a fog, and she had been forgetful and confused since having sex. As with most patients, the woman's brain scans using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT) showed nothing unusual and no damage to the brain. By the time she left the emergency room, her symptoms were almost gone. The closest thing to an explanation researchers have for this sex-triggered amnesia is that the problem may not begin in the brain, but in the neck. In a January 2010 study published in the journal Stroke, Ameriso and his colleagues conducted sonograms of the necks of 142 patients who'd experienced transient global amnesia within the last week. They found that 80 percent of the patients had what is called insufficiency of the valves in the jugular vein. This vein, which runs down the side of the neck, carries spent blood from the brain back to the heart. Valves in the veins prevent blood from flowing backward toward the head, but if the valves don't close sufficiently, blood could seep back upward. Memory mysteries The best guess for what might be happening is that patients unwittingly trigger the transient global amnesia by raising the pressure inside their abdomens. This is called the "Valsalva maneuver," familiar as the "bearing down" people might do when lifting weights, defecating or even having sex. The increased pressure increases the resistance to blood flowing down the jugular veins, and insufficient valves may allow deoxygenated blood to push back up the neck. Oxygen-poor blood then "piles up" in the veins draining the brain, especially in central brain regions that are key to memory formation. The result could be transient amnesia. What this explanation doesn't cover is why most people with transient global amnesia experience it only once, Ameriso told Livescience. "This doesn't explain why this would happen only once while we do this Valsalva maneuver many times during the day," he said. Whatever the cause, transient global amnesia can be upsetting. In one case reported in 1964, a man lost his memory the moment he orgasmed, causing him to exclaim, "Where am I? What's happened?" [10 Surprising Sex Statistics] People with transient global amnesia usually rush to the hospital in great distress, Ameriso said — which is not a bad thing, given that sudden memory loss can also herald a stroke or other serious neurological problems. For doctors and patients alike the most important thing is a quick diagnosis, Ameriso said. Otherwise, patients can languish in the hospital for days, waiting anxiously for test results. "It's important to be able to diagnose this very quickly, looking for the insufficiency in the veins," Ameriso said. "If you can confirm that this is the case, you can save a lot of money." http://bodyodd.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2011/10/11/8273914-mind-blowing-sex-actually-can-wipe-memory-clean Now you have an excuse.

Admin_2 Posted October 14, 2011 Report Share Posted October 14, 2011 A 23-year-old Thai man has been arrested on murder charges after winning a game of Russian roulette with his friend, who was asleep at the time. Pornthep Jaisangiam confessed to shooting his friend Sanchai Nawasnathee, 25, after a drinking binge at a karaoke bar in Uthai district, Ayutthaya province, 90km north of Bangkok, the Thai Rath newspaper reported. Ponthep told police he was still drinking on Sunday morning while his two friends, Sanchai and Ton, slept. Seeing a pistol in Sanchai's belt, Ponthep decided to play a game of Russian roulette with his sleeping friend. He removed all the bullets but one, held it to his own head and fired. Nothing happened. Ponthep then held the gun to the sleeping Sanchai's head and fired, putting a bullet through his skull and killing him instantly. "Ponthep said he was shocked by what happened. He threw the gun away and ran home, where we found him," Uthai district police superintendent Thanaporn Pohthisuk said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stramash Posted October 14, 2011 Report Share Posted October 14, 2011 Fish allergy causes Vietnamese woman to age decades in 'a few days' Theses two women may look like grandmother and granddaughter but they are in fact the same person, with only five years separating the pictures. Nguyen Thi Phuong is 26 but an allergic reaction to seafood in 2008 aged her 50 years in a matter of days, leaving her with wrinkled skin over her face and body so severe that she wears a mask in public. ‘Five years ago, I was rather pretty and not so ugly,’ she said, while looking at a picture of her wedding day in 2006. ‘My skin has folds like an old woman who has given birth several times – even though I have never had a child.’ Doctors have argued her condition is lipodystrophy – an incurable syndrome that causes a layer of fat to disintegrate while the skin continues to grow. They believe the medicine Mrs Nguyen took after her initial allergic reaction may have made the condition take hold. Husband Tuyen, a 33-year-old carpenter whose £90-a-month wage could not cover hospital treatment, added: ‘I still love her very much.’ Doctors are due to examine Mrs Nguyen, from Ben Tre in southern Vietnam, free of charge this month.

FarangFarang Posted October 14, 2011 Report Share Posted October 14, 2011 Black magic sperm? Gang of women arrested for drugging, kidnapping and raping men to steal their semenPolice seize 33 condoms from three female suspects Alarming trend sees male hitchhikers drugged, sexually assaulted and dumped by roadsides Police investigating a spate of 'ritualistic' kidnappings and sex attacks on male hitchhikers have arrested three women. Detectives in Gweru, Zimbabwe, seized 33 used condoms from a suspect vehicle following reports of attacks on men seeking lifts in the town, as well as Harare and Mashonaland West. Reports in Zimbabwe have described the alarming trend of male hitchhikers being offered lifts, but then being drugged and driven to secluded spots by female attackers. The men are then forced into sex with the women, sometimes unprotected and at gunpoint, before the female rapists collect their semen and dump victims by the roadside. According to the NewZimbabwe.com, three women have been arrested after police found 33 condoms in a vehicle in Lower Gweru last Sunday. Midlands police chief Senior Assistant Commissioner Charles Makono said the women came under suspicion after asking officers if they could retrieve the bag of condoms from their car, which had just been involved in an accident. The three women, named as Rosemary Chakwizira, 24, Sophie Nhokwara, 26, and Netsai Nhokwara, 24, all from Mkoba 4, Gweru, were immediately arrested along with the male driver on suspicion of multiple counts of indecent assault. The driver also faces culpable homicide charges after the fatal accident in which a pedestrian was run over and killed. Zimbabwe news outlet Nehanda Radio reported that the local police station in Gweru was beseiged by an angry mob who wanted to see the arrested trio. One local resident in Gweru outside the police station last week said the three women were known in the town and regularly attended nightclubs there. Harry Mohammed Misi told Zimbabwe's Nehanda Radio: 'We are shocked with what is happening in our society where men are now being sexually-abused by women. It seems now that tables have turned.' 'But how can they make a living through such acts? On this case, let the law take its course. 'We used to drink with them at Uptown Nite Club and we didn’t know that they were behind such cases.' Police are asking for victims to come forward to an identity parade to help identify their attackers. Investigators also hope to match the semen to some of the victims through DNA testing. In October last year, police chief Augustine Chihuri was forced to address the female sex attack crimewave, warning that rapists would be 'professionally dealt with accordingly without fear or favour'.

Security camera footage shows a driver in a white van hit the young girl, apparently crushing her under the weight of the front wheel. The driver pauses briefly, but then continues to drive forward, running over her with the back wheel.The following video shows more than a dozen passersby walk, ride motorbikes or drive past the young, bleeding girl without stopping to help. They clearly notice the badly injured child, as some motorists swerve to avoid her body.
