Robot police officer begins to work in Beijing

BEIJING, Nov. 21 -- A robot police officer has recently begun working in Changping District of Beijing, facilitating citizens who want to call the police.

The newspaper Beijing Times reported on Tuesday that four video cameras have been installed in the robot, three in the head and one pinhole camera on the chest, with which he can inspect his surroundings.

When needing to call the police, citizens need only press a red button on the robot's stomach and the robot will automatically connect with police headquarters. Speaking through a microphone installed on the robot's chest, citizens can speak directly with an officer.

According to Changping police, the robot officer will be mainly used in areas where cameras can't be installed and where incidents happen frequently, thus benefiting citizens and frightening criminals.

Cat born with two faces & four eyes


What's new pussycat? Oh, nothing much, just my extra face. Cats have often been accused of being two-faced animals, but this is ridiculous. This is Lil'Bit in the ultimate mog-shot. He is the kitty with more features than your average fuzzball.
Even Blofeld's white Persian is afraid of him. Lil'Bit may look like the Frankenstein of felines, but he somehow manages to come a whisker away from being really cute. When he was born seven months ago, he had to be fed milk with an eye-dropper. He lives with his 47-year-old female owner in Arizona. Lil'Bit had four eyes when he was born, but the two in the middle are converging into one giant cat's eye. However, he still has two distinct noses and mouths, resulting in double the whining when he's hungry. Scientists believe he has two brains because when one face sleeps the other can remain alert and awake. When he gets a cold, only one of his noses runs. He was one of five kittens born to Lil'Pine, his brothers and sisters arriving into the world with just the one face each. Losers.

Woman with half a brain

Doctors treating a Chinese woman who complained of feeling weak discovered she only had half a brain.

The woman, 39, from Wuhan city, has lived a perfectly normal life and only came into hospital after she complained of feeling weak and stiff.

Zhang Linhong, director of Neural Rehabilitation Department at the local hospital, said: "On the MRI scans we were surprised to see that she only has grey matter on the right side.

"Our usual understanding is that the left brain controls language. But this patient has no problem communicating with people."

The woman's mother said her daughter lives a very normal life.

"She graduated from high school with good marks. Her memory is very good. She remembers phone numbers and names immediately."

Joke: SECRET TO HAPPY MARRIAGE

Here's the untold secret of married life....

A couple was celebrating their golden wedding anniversary.
Their Domestic tranquility had long been the talk of the town. What a
peaceful & loving couple".
A local newspaper reporter was inquiring as to the secret of their
long and happy marriage.
"Well, it dates back to our honeymoon," explained the man. "We visited
the Grand Canyon and took a trip down to the bottom on the canyon by
horse.
We hadn't gone too far when my wife's horse stumbled. My wife quietly
said, 'that's once'." We proceeded a little further and the horse
stumbled again.
Once more my wife quietly said, 'That's twice.'"We hadn't gone a
half-mile when the horse stumbled the third time.
My wife quietly removed a revolver from her purse and shot the horse
dead."I started an angry protest over her treatment of the horse,
while I was shouting; she looked at me, and quietly said,
'That's once'. "And we lived happily ever after."

Miracle man walks again

He survived against all the odds; now Peng Shulin has astounded
doctors by learning to walk again.When his body was cut in two by a lorry in 1995, it was little short
of a medical miracle that he lived.It took a team of more than 20 doctors to save his life.
Skin was grafted from his head to seal his torso – but the legless Mr
Peng was left only 78cm (2ft 6in) tall. Bedridden for years, doctors
in China had little hope that he would ever be able to live anything
like a normal life agan.But recently, he began exercising his arms, building up the strength
to carry out everyday chores such as washing his face and brushing his
teeth. Doctors at the China Rehabilitation Research Centre in Beijing
found out about Mr Peng's plight late last year and devised a plan to
get him up walking again. They came up with an ingenious way to allow
him to walk on his own, creating a sophisticated egg cup-like casing
to hold his body with two bionic legs attached to it. He has been
taking his first steps around the centre with the aid of his specially
adapted legs and a resized walking frame. Mr Peng, who has to learn
how to walk again, is said to be delighted with the device.

According to Pakistan Software Exports Board, Post Amazers CEO Asif Iqbal talking about these developments said:" The success of Commander Safeguard only proves the point that there is a lot

How to Ruin a Romantic Moment

Funny beer ad showing how men destroy romance - watch and weep, boys!

Women agrees to change her identity/face for her Husband Love

Unbelievable as it may sound, there is a woman in our world who is ready to forego her identity by having her face 'modified' according to the pattern devised by her husband. Putting aside women's lib she has given a new angle to women's loyalty.

China's Chongqing Business News has recently carried the story of a man named Zhao Gang, 32, who lost his wife three years ago in a car mishap. He himself was injured so badly that he had to spend six months in a hospital. Once discharged from there, he resolved to keep the memory of her late wife alive by never marrying again. (Some even otherwise consider marriage not a word, but a sentence!)

"As a matter of principle I should have died with my sweetheart, but to remarry will mean sheer infidelity with the departed soul," Zhao would reply to his friends and relatives whenever pressed by them to take a second wife. "Thirty-two years is too short an age to adopt celibacy," they would, in turn, urge him.

Swayed by the sustained pressure of his near and dear ones, Zhao at last agreed to wed again but put forward a strenuous condition which was tantamount to an outright refusal. He told his parents that he would marry with that woman only who resembled her former wife. He thought it to be nigh impossible for them to find such a woman but, after hectic search, they did succeed in locating one. Now Zhao had little ground to remain single. He married and later said, "I took Kim as my wife only because she looks to me a bit like her predecessor and I want to have a chance to make up for my mistakes."

However, soon after the marriage, on 'close observation,' he found that Kim needed minor 'touching' to become the replica of the woman imprinted on his heart. He, therefore, persuaded her to undergo plastic surgery if she wanted to stay with him. This was a callous demand and was arguably turned down by Kim. "You had accepted me on 'as-it-is, where-it-is' basis," she pleaded apparently to keep Zhao within limits. Yet, he was hellbent to establish his 'writ' in the house and prove the veracity of an orthodox view, "A man may brave opinion; a woman must submit to it."

Ultimately, the far-sighted, condescending and prudent lady melted belying the absolutely unrealistic male view that if you prolong the first syllable of woman, she becomes the woe of man. Kim consented to the surgery thrust upon her saying, "I feel complicated. I don't want to become some one else's shadow, but I also don't want to lose my family. Now I only hope that the surgery will not make me look ugly." Zhao, on the other hand, acknowledges, "Maybe, it's more or less unfair to her, but she has expressed her willingness and I will embrace her with all my love."

Man in India marries dog as atonement

He tells paper he had been suffering since he stoned two canines to death
... some sex life is going to have ...

NEW DELHI - A man in southern India married a female dog in a traditional Hindu ceremony as an attempt to atone for stoning two other dogs to death — an act he believes cursed him — a newspaper reported Tuesday.

P. Selvakumar married the sari-draped former stray named Selvi, chosen by family members and then bathed and clothed for the ceremony Sunday at a Hindu temple in the southern state of Tamil Nadu, the Hindustan Times newspaper said.

Selvakumar, 33, told the paper he had been suffering since he stoned two dogs to death and hung their bodies from a tree 15 years ago

After that my legs and hands got paralyzed and I lost hearing in one ear," he said in the report.

The paper said an astrologer had told Selvakumar the wedding was the only way he could cure the maladies. It did not say whether his situation had improved.

Deeply superstitious people in rural India sometimes organize weddings to dogs and other animals, believing it can ward off certain curses.

The paper showed a picture of Selvakumar sitting next to the dog, which was wearing an orange sari and a flower garland.

The paper said the groom and his family then had a feast, while the dog got a bun.

Joke: Really wishful thinking

A recently divorced woman is walking along the beach contemplating how
badly treated she got over the divorce settlement, when she spies a
magic lamp washing up onshore. She rubs the lamp, and out pops a
magical genie!! The genie notices her anger and lets her vent her
troubles to him. As a consolation, the genie informs her that he will
give her three wishes. But, he cautions her that because he does not
believe in divorce, he will give her ex-husband ten times the amount
of whatever she wishes.

The woman is steaming mad, thinking that this is hardly fair, but she
makes her first wish. The first wish was for a billion dollars. The
genie grants her wish and she finds herself sitting in pile of one
billion one-dollar bills. The genie then reminds her that her husband
is now the recipient of 10 billion dollars.

The woman can barely contain her anger when she makes her second wish.
The second wish was for a beautiful mansion on the shore of her own
private beach. In an instant it was granted, but the genie then
reminds again that her ex-husband now owns ten of what she wished for,
and points at the beach to a small development of ten such mansions.

Upon hearing this, the woman takes her time to contemplate her last
wish. Just as the genie was about to give up on her, the woman informs
the genie that she wants to make the last wish. But, before she can do
this, the genie again warns her that her ex-husband will get TEN times
what she wishes for.

"No problem," said the woman as she grinned in ecstasy. "For my last
wish … I'd like to give birth to TWINS."

Russians Get Day Off To Boost Birth Rate

http://www.thenews.com.pk/daily_detail.asp?id=72050


MOSCOW: Workers in a Russian region were given a holiday on Wednesday, to have sex in a bid to boost the birth rate.

Today has been declared the Day of Conception in Ulyanovsk, Lenin's birthplace, when couples are told go to home and multiply.

If they succeed they could win a car, cash or a fridge.

Under the city council's "Give Birth to a Patriot" scheme, those who give birth on June 12, Lenin's birthday, will get a prize.

The winning couple of the grand prize - a locally made 4x4 car - are judged by a committee on criteria such as "respectability" and "commendable parenting".

The scheme is championed by the Ulyanovsk governor, Sergei Morozov. "The leadership (of the country) is interested in the family," he told AP Television News. Since the scheme started three years ago the region's birth rate has increased.

Low life expectancy, declining birth rates, a spike in emigration to other countries, a frayed healthcare system and other factors have contributed to a sharp drop in Russia's population since the 1991 Soviet collapse. The world's largest country now has just 141.4 million citizens, making it one of the most sparsely settled nations in the world. Experts expect the decline to accelerate, estimating that Russia's population could fall below 100 million by 2050.

Just 311 women signed up to take part in the first competition, in 2005, and qualify for a half-day off from work. The following June, 46 more babies were born in Ulyanovsk's 25 hospitals compared to the previous June, including 28 born on June 12, officials said.

In Memory of all those who love their bosses !

A guy calls up his Boss, but gets the bosses' wife instead.

"I'm afraid he died last week." she explains.

The next day the man calls again and asks for the boss.

"I told you" the wife replies, "he died last week."

The next day he calls again and once more asks to Speak to his boss.

By this time the wife is getting upset and shouts,

"I'VE ALREADY TOLD YOU TWICE, MY HUSBAND, YOUR BOSS, DIED LAST WEEK! WHY DO
YOU KEEP CALLING?"

He replied laughing,

"I just love hearing it... ;-) "

*!~@Priceless <%21%7E@Priceless>!@~

A husband wakes up with a huge hangover the night after a business function. He forces himself to open his eyes and the first thing he sees is a couple of aspirins next to a glass of water on the side table. And, next to them, a single red rose! The husband sits up in bed and sees his clothing in front of him, all clean and pressed. He looks around the room and sees that it is in perfect order, spotlessly clean. So is the rest of the house. He takes the aspirins, cringes when he sees a huge black eye staring back at him in the bathroom mirror and notices a note on the table:

Honey, breakfast is on the stove, I left early to go shopping Love you!

He stumbles to the kitchen and sure enough, there is hot breakfast and the morning newspaper. His son is also at the table, eating.

The husband asks: Son . . . what happened last night??
Son: Well, you came home after 3 am , drunk and out of your mind. You broke the coffee table, puked in the hallway and got that black eye when you ran into the door.?
The husband asks: Huh?! So, why is everything in such perfect order, so clean, I have a rose and breakfast is on the table waiting for me??
His son replies: Oh, THAT? Mom dragged you to the bedroom and when she tried to take your pants off, you screamed, Leave me alone, bitch! I'm married!??


Two aspirins --- $.25
Red rose bud -- $3


Hot breakfast --- $5
Broken table ---- $200

Sat, 10/27/2007 - 08:45


Former US Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld fled France today fearing arrest over charges of "ordering and authorizing" torture of detainees at both the American-run Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq and the US military's detainment facility at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, unconfirmed reports coming from Paris suggest.
US embassy officials whisked Rumsfeld away yesterday from a breakfast meeting in Paris organized by the Foreign Policy magazine after human rights groups filed a criminal complaint against the man who spearheaded President George W. Bush's "war on terror" for six years.
Under international law, authorities in France are obliged to open an investigation when a complaint is made while the alleged torturer is on French soil.
According to activists in France, who greeted Rumsfeld shouting "murderer" and "war criminal" at the breakfast meeting venue, US embassy officials remained tight-lipped about the former defense secretary's whereabouts citing "security reasons".
Anti-torture protesters in France believe that the defense secretary fled over the open border to Germany, where a war crimes case against Rumsfeld was dismissed by a federal court. But activist point out that under the Schengen agreement that ended border checkpoints across a large part of the European Union, French law enforcement agents are allowed to cross the border into Germany in pursuit of a fleeing fugitive.
"Rumsfeld must be feeling how Saddam Hussein felt when US forces were hunting him down," activist Tanguy Richard said. "He may never end up being hanged like his old friend, but he must learn that in the civilized world, war crime doesn't pay."
International Federation for Human Rights (FIDH) along with the Center for Constitutional Rights (CCR), the European Center for Constitutional and Human Rights (ECCHR), and the French League for Human Rights (LDH) filed the complaint on Thursday after learning that Rumsfeld was scheduled to visit Paris.

Girl, 13, gets detention for hugging two friends

MASCOUTAH, Ill. - Two hugs equals two days of detention for 13-year-old Megan Coulter.

The eighth-grader was punished for violating a school policy banning public displays of affection when she hugged two friends Friday.

“I feel it is crazy,” said Megan, who was to serve her second detention Tuesday after classes at Mascoutah Middle School.

“I was just giving them a hug goodbye for the weekend,” she said.

Megan’s mother, Melissa Coulter, said the embraces weren’t even real hugs — just an arm around the shoulder and slight squeeze.

“It’s hilarious to the point of ridicule,” Coulter said. “I’m still dumbfounded that she’s having to do this.”


District Superintendent Sam McGowen said that he thinks the penalty is fair and that administrators in the school east of St. Louis were following policy in the student handbook.

It states: “Displays of affection should not occur on the school campus at any time. It is in poor taste, reflects poor judgment, and brings discredit to the school and to the persons involved.”

Parents urge change in policy
Coulter said she and her husband told their daughter to go ahead and serve her detentions
because the only other option was a day of suspension for each skipped detention.

“We don’t agree with it, but I certainly don’t want her to get in more trouble,” Coulter said.

The couple plan to attend the next school board meeting to ask board members to consider rewording the policy or be more specific in what is considered a display of affection.

“I’m just hoping the school board will open their eyes and just realize that maybe they shouldn’t be punishing us for hugs,” Megan said.

UK chooses 'most ludicrous laws'

Legislation said to prohibit people dying while in the Houses of Parliament has been voted one of the most ludicrous laws in the UK.

Treason laws which reportedly could be used against someone who places a stamp upside down on a letter were also cited by those polled by UKTV Gold.

Nearly 4,000 people picked laws on a list compiled by UKTV Gold researchers.

It examined laws that have never been repealed even though statutes could have rendered them obsolete.

A UKTV Gold spokeswoman said many of the regulations were referenced in the book The Strange Laws of Old England by Nigel Cawthorne.

A total of 27% of those questioned by UKTV Gold thought the law against dying in the Houses of Parliament was the most absurd.

Mr Cawthorne told the Daily Telegraph newspaper that anyone who dies in Parliament is technically entitled to a state funeral and the law is in place to ensure this does not happen.

However, a spokesman for the House of Commons said: "The people who know about these things here say there is no basis for such a law, not to say it does not exist somewhere in writing."

Cannon firing

Other lesser-known laws making the list included one banning eating mince pies on Christmas Day and another from 1313 stating it is illegal to enter the Houses of Parliament wearing a suit of armour.

Almost half of those asked confessed to breaking the mince pie law, which was brought in by Oliver Cromwell in the 17th Century.

Last year, the Law Society last year highlighted a number of bizarre laws still in existence on the statute book in England and Wales.

These included a ban on firing a cannon close to a dwelling house (Met Police Act 1839); a ban on the use of any slide upon ice or snow (Town Police Clauses Act 1847); and the prohibition of driving cattle through the streets of London (Metropolitan Streets Act 1867).

An ongoing cull of obsolete laws by the statute law revision team, has seen 2,000 abolished since 1965.

Dead whales

Among the most ridiculous laws listed by UKTV Gold were:

  • It is illegal to die in the Houses of Parliament (27%)
  • It could be regarded an act of treason to place a postage stamp bearing the British king or queen's image upside-down (7%)
  • Eating mince pies on Christmas Day is banned (5%)
  • In the UK, a pregnant woman can legally relieve herself anywhere she wants (4%)
  • The head of any dead whale found on the British coast automatically becomes the property of the King, and the tail of the Queen (3.5%)
  • It is illegal not to tell the tax man anything you do not want him to know, but legal not to tell him information you do not mind him knowing (3%)
  • It is illegal to enter the Houses of Parliament wearing a suit of armour (3%)

    Boy hires hitman to Kill parents


    We've certainly gotten cranky after being denied some quality gaming time, but 16-year-old Cory Ryder took it to the next level by attempting to hire a hitman to kill his parents after they took away his PlayStation and denied him television. Seems young Cory had been making threats around the house, so his mom hired a cop to pose as a hitter -- and Cory took the bait, offering up his dad's truck as payment. After a couple rounds of "negotiations," the officer revealed himself and arrested Cory for attempted murder, for which he's now awaiting trial. Of course, you'd think that having a hitman conveniently show up after you'd been threatening to kill your parents might set off an alarm or two, but Cory's apparently not the brightest bulb around -- his PlayStation was confiscated due to failing grades.

    Shadi = Abadi ya Saza

    Abhi shaadi ka pehla hi saal tha,
    Khushi ke maare mera bura haal tha,
    Khushiyaan kuch yun umad rahin thi,
    Ki sambhale nahi sambhal rahi thi ..
    Subah subah madam ka chai Le kar aana
    Thora sharmate huye humein neend se jagana,
    Wo pyaar bhara hath hamare baalon mein phirana,
    Muskurate huye kehna ki..
    Darling chai to pi lo, Jaldi se ready ho jao, Aap ko office bhi hai jaana.
    Gharwali bhagwan ka roop Le kar aayee thi,
    Dil aur dimag par poori tarah chhayee thi,
    Saans bhi lete they to naam usee ka hota tha,
    Ek pal bhi door jeena dushwar hota tha..

    ******

    5 saal baad........

    Subah subah madam ka chai Le kar aana,
    Table par rakh kar jor se chillana,
    Aaj office jao to munna ko
    School chorte hue jana...
    Suno ek baar phir wohi awaaz aayi,
    Kya baat hai abhi tak chhori nahi charpayee,
    Agar munna late ho gaya to dekh Lena,
    Munna ki teachers ko phir khud hi sambhaal Lena..
    Na Jane gharwali kaisa roop Le kar aayi thi,
    Dil aur dimaag par kaali ghata chhayee thi,
    Saans bhi lete hain to unhi ka khayal hota hai,
    Ab har samay jehan mein ek hi sawal hota hai..
    Kya kabhi who din laut ke aayenge,
    Hum ek baar phir kunwaare Ho jaayenge.... ...!
