"Lucky" Denver Puppy Rescued after Being Trapped between Walls (Video Link)

Denver fight fighting department was involved Saturday (Nov. 05) in a very rare kind of rescue operation.


2-day Old Lucky Denver Puppy Rescued
As per report in Huffington Post; a fire fighter crept into a narrow space, just 12-inch wide, to save a puppy of just 2-day old. Chihuahua mix puppy was slipped through floorboards, the owner Armando Velarde told media.

The puppy's mother and three siblings keep on heard as the little puppy moaning in suffering and the committed firefighter keep on advancing until he successfully reclaimed the lost puppy.

Velarde told that he was really luck to get back the puppy live and unhurt. After this lucky escape the puppy is named as “Lucky” and rightly so, I must add.

Facebook Mania: 1 Million Under Age Kids in UK Access Facebook Everyday


LONDON – A recent study conducted by Mintel, a London-based market research firm, concluded that about one million British under-teen children, aged between 7 and 12, use Facebook - a social networking platform with more than 800 million users worldwide - on a daily basis.

Under-age Kids Using Facebook 
Ina Mitskavets, a researcher at Mitel, said, “Today's children are well versed in all aspects of the internet, with almost a million children aged seven to twelve using Facebook - highlighting just how popular the site has become.”

The study further suggests that 50 per cent the British children aged between 7 and 12 access social networking websites, out of which, 49 percent or around 970,000 access Facebook every single day. The study shows that more than half of the children accessed Facebook from their desktops while 10 per cent of children use mobile devices to use Facbook.

Although Facebook , restricts children under the age of 13 to join the social networking site but, according to another survey, parents of the children help their underage children to open accounts on Facebook.

The study also revealed that the rest of the 50% children accessing social networking platforms do it irregularly while only 5 percent of the children don't use it at all.

Pressure from their friends is a major reason which motivates children to create accounts on social networking platforms, the study concluded in the end.

What Actually Saved Michael Cohen ..?? -- British man attacked by wild shark in Cape Town, South Africa



CAPE TOWN, South Africa - The British man, attacked by a shark at Cape Town beach, was survived by Good Samaritans who transformed a wetsuit into a tourniquet to stop his bleeding, his surgeon said Thursday.



Brit Michael Cohen Dragged Out to Shore by Douglas ­Drysdale and Hugh Till
Shocked witnesses told how the 9-foot wild white shark was seemed to attack again but got interrupted when a seal swam between it and the Cohen.

The seal then circled Michael and rescuers Douglas ­Drysdale, 61, and Hugh Till, 66, as they dragged him to the shore with the deadly shark floating just feet away.

The 43-year-old Cohen, living in Cape Town, lost his right leg above the knee and his left leg below the knee when a great white shark attacked him on Wednesday, local authorities said.

"The injury to the right leg had been controlled at the scene with a tourniquet," said Andrew Nicol, the trauma surgeon who operated on Cohen.

"That tourniquet has consisted of a wetsuit that had been applied around the thigh and wrapped with two belts very, very tightly," he told a news conference.

"It's just too early to predict at the moment about the outcome but I think a promising sign is the fact that he is stabilizing," he said.

"We've basically replaced his blood volume twice over already."

The beach was closed after sharks had been spotted earlier in the day but Cohen ignored warning flags when he went into the water at Fish Hoek beach, the city of Cape Town said in a statement.

He was rescued by two passersby who dragged him from the water and by one of the city's Shark Spotters, who used his belt to fasten the tourniquet, said National Sea Rescue Institute spokesman Craig Lambinon.

Beaches along Cape Town's False Bay remained closed on Thursday after two sharks were spotted in the morning.

Crocodile, Named Snappy, Turns Itself Bright Orange at 'Roaming Reptiles' in Australia (Photos)

MELBOURNE, Australia - If you haven’t get a chance to see a crocodile in bright orange colour then don’t miss the opportunity as a 2.5-meter long reptile in an Australian wildlife park has turned itself orange by mistake.



Crocodile, Named Snappy, Turns Itself Bright Orange at 'Roaming Reptiles' in Australia
The crocodile, named Snappy, entertaining the visitors at Roaming Reptiles in the State of Victoria more than normal due to its unusual orange colour. The crocodile reportedly turned orange after apparently biting off more than he could chew out of the filter in its water tank.

Experts believe vegetation and algae which would normally have stayed out of his water thanks to the filter managed to get in, which affected his colour.

Tracey Sandstrom, manager of Roaming Reptiles, said: "I think it caused the pH levels in his water to soar which has led to the change in colour."

Nevertheless, the new orange look has not had any health problems for Snappy and it is expected to return to his normal green colour in few days.

VIDEO: Break-off Sulzberger Ice Shelf in Antarcica Due to Japan Tsunami in March 2011

Anyone one in the world could hardly imagine that recent tsunami in Japan would have any tearing effects in the continent of Antarctica; but it’s really true.







(Photo: Credit: European Space Agency/)
Before (left) and after (right) photos of the Sulzberger Ice Shelf illustrate the calving event associated with the Japan earthquake and resulting tsunami that occurred on March 11, 2011. The icebergs have just begun to separate in the left image.

Waves generated by the massive March 2011 undersea earthquake off Japan travelled 8000 mi. to chop 50 sq. mi. of ice off the Sulzberger Ice Shelf. NASA and ESA satellites captured imagery of the break. Ice may have been weakened by climate change.

According to NASA; the break-off of icebergs apparently occurred about 18 hours after the tsunami struck the Japanese coast and Kelly Brunt, a cryosphere specialist at the Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, and her colleagues, were able to relate the two occurrences directly.
