Something to crow about! Pet bird catches mice, does impressions of dogs
and can speak Chinese
Despite sounding like Frankenstein’s pet, this crafty crow is all bird –
even though he can bark like a dog, catch mice like a cat and natter
like a parrot. The pet crow, who does not have a name, likes catching
rodents on the farm where he lives and also manages basic Chinese.
According to owner Ma Baocheng, the crow can manage simple phrases and
expressions in Chinese, like saying hello, and also barks like a dog.Mr
Ma, from Nanning, Guangxi Province, bought the crow a year ago to keep
as a pet. |

Remains of Europe's largest predatory dinosaur discovered in Portugal
Scientists in Portugal have discovered a new species of dinosaur --
possibly the largest land predator of any kind ever found in Europe.
Paleontologists Christophe Hendrickx and Octávio Mateus of Universidade
Nova de Lisboa and Museu da Lourinhã in Portugal say the 33-foot-long
dinosaur called Torvosaurus gurneyi was the scourge of Jurassic Europe,
Reuters reported."It was indeed better not to cross the way of this
large, carnivorous dinosaur," Hendrickx said. "Torvosaurus gurneyi was
obviously a super predator feeding on large prey like herbivorous
dinosaurs." |

High protein diets like Paleo as bad as chain-smoking for cancer & early
death
A high-protein diet like the meat-heavy Paleo diet is linked to cancer
and early death among middle-aged people, according to a study published
March 4 in the medical journal Cell Metabolism. An 18-year study
conducted by the University of Southern California indicates that eating
lots of animal protein and cheese quadruples cancer risk for middle-aged
people and is as bad for their health as smoking 20 cigarettes a day.
The study tracked 6,318 adults over the age of 50.

This Mercedes S-Class Was Painted With 1,000 Sheets Of Gold Leaf
I'm not talking about any paint or wrap this time as the Carlsson CS50
Versailles is indeed adorned with more than 1,000 sheets of wafer-thin
gold leaf. It takes 200 man hours and a squirrel-hair brush to achieve
such class. And it's going to China, of course. Based on the flagship
Mercedes, the Versailles was "specifically developed for China's
ultra-wealthy "'Taipan' clients; the new 'royalty' of the Middle
Kingdom." And those ultra-wealthy Chinese must love the thing because
Carlsson has sold ten of the planned 25 in advance.

The world's toughest golf hole
Forget your local pitch and putt, this mammoth Par 3 is one of golf's
greatest challenges - and that's just getting to the tee! The Extreme
19th is the world's longest par 3, measuring 391 yards, and challengers
can only access the tee by helicopter. Sat atop South Africa's Hanglip
Mountain, at 400 metres tall it is also the globe's highest hole,
meaning it takes almost 30 seconds for any tee shot to reach the
Africa-shaped green below. Part of the Legend Golf Resort, situated in
South Africa's Waterberg mountain range, the course has been designed by
18 of the globes top players, including Justin Rose and Retief Goosen.
