This photo of a two faced cow shot up to the number one emailed photo on Yahoo today. Yesterday it was on the move in their top twenty or so. Apparently the cow has two eyes in the center of the two faces, two tongues, and two different noses which it breaths out of. The real question is does Rural Retreat, Virginia where the cow was born glow? In reality mutations like this are pretty common it seems as we've posted things like this before and there are whole websites dedicated to five legged cows and other such things.
Here is a video of a pool of corn starch on a Spanish TV show. The mixed up corn starch in a concrete mixer and then poured it into this pool. The trick is that it is a non-newtonian fluid which means that when force is applied to the liquid it exhibits properties of a solid. In the video the two hosts of the show repeatedly run over the top of the corn starch. Just to show that it is actually liquid the one host sinks into the corn starch while the other host continues to run around on top of the liquid. Near the end they have some bystanders also run over the liquid and the other host sinks into the corn starch too.
Here is an article about a mutant dolphin which was caught recently that had four flippers instead of the 'normal' two. I've circled the two extra flippers in the photo to the right. The flippers look normal but other dolphins don't have them and only a few times previously have four fins been recorded on dolphins. The article claims dolphins use to be land animals millions of years ago and these fins are a left over trait from that. Additionally grow leg buds before they are born but they disappear before birth. So there you have it. Mutant dolphins for the win.
So David Blaine is at it again and this time he's living in an 8x8 sphere of water for a week before attempting this stunt. He has an oxygen hose, goggles, pants, and gloves on. Apparently after the week's time he is going to try beating the 'holding your breath underwater' record of 8 minutes and and 58 seconds. At the same time he is suppost to try and escape from 150 pounds of chains and handcuffs according to the caption attached with the photo. I assume the gloves are so his hands don't turn into prunes. Is he sleeping underwater? Is he slowly lowering or raising the oxygen content of the air tube to prepare himself for the holding his breath? Strange stuff.
So the most emailed photo on Yahoo for the last few days has been this photo of a giant rabbit named 'Robert' from Germany. Major news sites are pairing this photo with a story about a giant rabbit eating vegetable gardens in the UK which really has nothing to do with the rabbit in the photograph. So what is this "rabbit breeder" doing with the bunnies anyway? Meat? Fur coats? Pets? In any event that is one huge mutant rabbit which leads us to another site in the UK called "British Giant Rabbits" where they have a photo which claims to be of the biggest rabbit in the world.
So one of the mosted emailed photos for today on Yahoo was this image of a "designer contact lense". This contact lense has a soccer ball on it with the center area open so you can still see out of your eye. A second set of contact lenses has the German flag on it. They're charging something like $54 a pop for these things. Just wait, you know they have deals in the works for all the mega brands like Coca Cola, 7-Up, etc. Wait for the tradeshows, other sporting events (American football?), or even TV shows where everyone there is wearing their brand logo on their eyeball.
It's not every day that you see a giant panda sitting in a chair, wearing a crown, and eating a piece of cake with a fork now is it? The panda's name is Bass according to this news article and the giant panda who lives in China is celebrating her 25th birthday. I suppose this isn't any different than European dancing bears from the Middle Ages. The average weight for a female panda looks like it's between 155 and 220 so Bass is a chubber weighing in at 304 pounds. Fact is stranger than fiction for the win.
So apparently the only thing the Croats and Muslims can agree on in Bosnia is the fact that Bruce Lee kicks some serious ass. So to honor Big Dawg Bruce they put up a golden statue of Bruce Lee in one of their parks. Now this golden statue is holding some golden nunchucks. Apparently shortly after the statue was unveiled some local thugs moved in at night and jacked Bruce's golden Nunchucks. I'd say they better watch themselves as spirit Bruce Lee might come back and give them a wooping. I wouldn't be surprised if they came back the next night with a truck and jacked the whole statue! Go Bosnia!
