What happens when a cow is struck by lightning?

Probably you never saw a cow after a lightning strike, right?
This is the image of the cow that almost was turned into an instant barbecue but survived the experience (although with some wounds - the image at the end of the post can be shocking for some people).
The incident happened weeks ago in Australia. According to experts, probably the electricity from a lightning strike entered the front set of legs and exit out the back legs, leaving those marks on the animal.

What is happening in this picture?

Click to enlarge. Bizarre, isn't it?
I saw this picture several weeks ago, but today I discovered what is this about: the name of the man in thong, clogs and red helmet is Cuco Suarez, a Spanish artist.
His performance begins with him putting fire in a cardboard structure (representing an enemy city) and ends with the artist wearing a suit, spilling cow blood on newspapers.
And in the midst of all he takes a public bath - so if you take a look at these pictures, be prepared to see him without clothes...

Newborn had foot embedded in brain

Inside a newborn's brain: two feet, a hand and thigh. Unbelievable, huh?
But it's true...

The parents of Sam Esquibel know him only as a miracle baby.
The Colorado Springs infant survived surgery to remove what was believed to be a tumor when he was just 3 days old.
"The doctors said to us, 'This one is for the books,' " mom Tiffnie Esquibel said.
Inside the microscopic tumor was what looked like the formations of two feet, a hand and thigh.
"To find a perfectly formed structure (like this) is extremely unique, unusual, borderline unheard of," said Dr. Paul Grabb, the veteran pediatric neurosurgeon who performed the operation on Sam at Colorado Springs' Memorial Hospital for Children.
As for what this could mean to science books, Grabb said he did not pursue it because it was not vital to saving Sam, although he did say it gave insight to stem-cell research.
"How does the body form complete extremities? Who is to say we can't grow a heart, leg or foot?" Grabb said. "This could show a window of what's possible."
At 41 weeks into Esquibel's pregnancy, an ultrasound showed fluid in Sam's brain, and an emergency cesarean section was scheduled. The infant appeared healthy, but was given an MRI exam to be sure.
"If they hadn't done the (testing), the hospital said they would have sent Sam home with me," Esquibel said. "He just seemed as healthy as can be."
The MRI ultimately revealed a tumor, and at 3 days old, Sam underwent a two-hour surgery to remove it.
"I was absolutely devastated," Esquibel said. "We didn't know if he'd make it through the surgery or not, and it was a 50-50 percent chance the tumor could be cancerous."
Two and half months later, Sam has mostly recovered. Now that the sutures have healed, the infant is scheduled for 25 sessions of physical therapy to improve use of the right side of his head and neck.

Snowboarding Santa
Christmas is nearing so I started to search for a nice picture about Santa Claus (to make an e-card). Before start searching the internet I gave a look at my files and in the end I found this one, which I took in the beginning of this year.
I didn't remembered this one... but it's kind of interesting and bizarre, so I decided to share.
Does anybody out there have some other interesting picture about Christmas?

Anti-abduction helmet

Have been kidnapped by aliens these days? Little green men (or gray men, if you like) have harassed you lately? Maybe it's time to start using a anti-telepathy helmet, to avoid extra-terrestrial mind control over you...
Weird? Sure... But even weirder is the fact that there is a website teaching its readers to make such helmets.
The website in question is called "Stop Alien Abductions".
According to their informations the ETs have to control the mind of the person they are willing to kidnap - and if this telepathy is avoided the abduction doesn't occurs.
All you need is a hat and a piece of electricity-conductive plastic, plus basic stuff like scissors and tape.

Ah, there is an important detail for those who eventually need a helmet like this: it doesn't work on "hybrids" (human + alien breed)...

Man arrested for releasing worms on train to scare women

I love Japanese crime. The cases are always so minor... and strangely sexual. One of the most recent arrests for one of these "crimes" involves a strange pervert and a backpack full of 3,600 worms.
Manabu Mizuta is 35-years-old and probably has some kind of ladies scared of worms fetish. Maybe that's why he packed his backpack full of worms and headed for the nearest express train. On the Keihan line in Osaka prefecture, he would move close to women on the train and dump out a canister of beetle larvae.
He said, "I wanted to see women get scared and shake their legs.''
Awesome.
Apparently Mizuta had a good run, as local police were on alert due to 18 similar reported cases in the same month. Sadly, it all came to an end as he was arrested by a patrolling police officer on duty. The officer stopped him on the spot in mid dump of a canister of nearly 200 worms. He never got the chance to release his full 3,600 worm payload.

El Caganer: Catalonia's Fecal Christmas

Some of the world's most curious Christmas traditions can be found in Catalonia, where the idea of holiday cheer seems to involve some of life's more basic bodily functions.
A caganer -- or "pooper" -- is a small figurine of a person squatting down with lowered pants (or raised skirt) to answer nature's call. They have been around since the 17th century and can often be found hiding in an obscure corner of a Nativity scene.
Some say that the figurines originally became popular among farmers who believed -- quite practically -- that the caganer's "offerings" would make the soil rich and productive for the coming year.
The Wikipedia entry mentions how the caganer might represent "the equality of all people" because "everyone defecates" or it may be meant to reinforce that "the infant Jesus is God in human form."
Young children in Catalonia still play a Where's-Waldo-like game that involves searching for the caganer in the Nativity scene arrangement. According to the Friends Web site, the caganer is "placed under a bridge, behind a haystack or otherwise discretely hidden" as it "would show a lack of respect" to have him near the arrangement's manger scene.
The original el caganer is a wooden or clay figure of a peasant wearing the traditional floppy red Catalan cap with a black band (barretina) and smoking a cigarette or a pipe. But the figure's popularity has led to a massive expansion in the range of defecating figurines.
After the jump you will see images and a video of some caganers made after celebrities: Barack Obama, Lula (Brazilian President) and Ronaldo (soccer player).

Man jailed for Spiderpig insults
A man has been jailed for breaching the peace by singing Spiderpig from The Simpsons Movie at police officers.David Mullen was sentenced to three months for the incident and calling an officer "ginger" in a police van.
Mullen, 22, from Blairgowrie, claimed he was singing the ditty, performed by Homer in the cartoon, because it was the ringtone on his mobile phone.
He was given a further eight months in prison for assaulting a police officer and breaching a curfew while on bail.
Homer sings Spiderpig to the theme of Spiderman while walking a pig across the ceiling in The Simpsons Movie.
Mullen sang the song to officers on 25 July while sitting in the back of a police van after being involved in a fight in Blairgowrie, Perthshire.
Solicitor Paul Ralph, defending, said: "He started the song and that was the origin of the joke, but things went further. He felt he had not done anything to be apprehended for."

The whale and the surfer

Have you noticed that beneath the surfer there is a huge whale? Click to enlarge.
Seconds after this photo was snapped remotely by David's camera, mounted on the kite apparatus, the whale flicked up its tail and gave him an almighty blow on the back of his head.
Because the camera was programmed to take pictures every 10 seconds it missed the moment when the whale struck David - but this incredible shot of the massive creature swimming beneath him is reminder enough of his close encounter...

Manga on your toilet paper

Manga TP is a manga-themed toilet paper, to be read while your are using the toilet. It's weird, of course, but it's a good idea...
Japanese paper products company Banbix created several TP lines with mangas printed on - you can find them at their website.

Meet Captain Fantastic

A teenager has changed his name to Captain Fantastic Faster Than Superman Spiderman Batman Wolverine Hulk And The Flash Combined.
The record-breaking name, now thought to be the world's longest, was the idea of music graduate George Garratt, 19.
He changed his name by deed poll online for £10 last week.
Captain Fantastic said: "I wanted to be unique.
"I decided upon a theme of superheroes."
Captain Fantastic joins a number of people with unusually long names, including Rhoshandiatellyneshiaunneveshenk Koyaanisquatsiuth Williams, a girl born in Texas in 1984.
The teenager, from Glastonbury, Somerset, added that while he thought the new name was "crazy", his grandmother was no longer speaking to him.
Last month in Italy, a couple was banned from naming their son Friday - Venerdi - because the name could expose him to ridicule.
Named after the manservant of Daniel Defoe's famous novel Robinson Crusoe, the court ordered the boy's name be changed to Gregorio, named after the saint's day on which he was born.
In February, a judge in New Zealand made a young girl a ward of court so she could change her name from Talula Does The Hula From Hawaii.
Other banned names include Sex Fruit, Keenan Got Lucy and Yeah Detroit.
In New Zealand again, last year a couple was banned from naming their baby 4Real, so they chose Superman instead.

Body Bakery (aka Hannibal Lecter's bakery?)

This brings weird to a whole new level. Thai Fine Art student and artist Kittiwat Unarrom is the son of a baker. All that baking exposure growing up has been a clear influence, but his artistic need to see things a little differently definitely flared up as he created the tacitly named “Body Bakery” - brutally, gruesomely, almost unbelievably realistic looking sculptures of dismembered human body parts sculpted entirely from bread.
Unarrom himself is almost charmingly candid about his art…
“Of course, people were shocked and thought that I was mad when they saw the works. But once they knew the idea behind it, they understood and became interested in the work itself, instead of thinking that I am crazy.”
Inspired and informed by anatomy book and visits to forensic museums, he makes sure that none of your various body part bread desires go unfulfilled: he also makes feet, hands, and internal organs which come displayed impaled on hooks. Made from dough, raisins, cashew nuts, and chocolate, all of the works on display are totally edible.
“When people see the bread, they don’t want to eat it. But when they taste it, it’s just normal bread. The lesson is ‘don’t judge just by outer appearances.”

Fear of being buried alive? Try this...

Mr. Freud de Melo, from the city of Hidrolandia (Brazil) is so afraid of being buried alive that he made "buried alive-proof" tomb - equipped with food, water, television and a ventilation system.
In this very special tomb there's also a communication system - plastic cones attached to hoses that runs through the walls - to let outside people know that he was buried alive, if such thing happens to him.
He's gripped by a rare condition called taphephobia, the fear of being buried alive. "I have awful, awful nightmares of trying to dig myself out from underground," says Mr. de Melo, whose physician father named him, presciently, for the pioneer of dream analysis.

Motherhood vs mucus

Another curious product available at "The Land of the Rising Sun": "Mama's Snot Remover" (Hana-mizu tote). As far as I understood one straw is inserted in the baby's nose and the other one is kept into the mother's mouth, which aspires and then makes the snot to fall into the plastic reservoir.
Useful or not, the idea of sucking mucus from a baby's nose (even if the baby in question happens to be yours) isn't tremendously disgusting?

Leopard Man comes in from the wild

The Leopard Man of Skye has given up his remote hermit lifestyle to live in a retirement home.
Tom Leppard, whose entire body is covered in leopard-spot tattoos, lived in a ruined bothy on the Scottish island of Skye for 20 years, with no electricity or furniture.
The Leopard Man used to have to canoe three miles for his weekly shopping, but he has now moved from his remote stretch of shoreline near Kyleakin after admitting he's getting too old at 73.
Mr Leppard, an ex-special forces soldier, told the Daily Telegraph: "I was perfectly happy in the bothy but I'm like everyone else - I'm getting too old for that kind of life."
