Australian aims to breed 'green' sheep that burp less -LOL FUCKING LOONEY TOONS LOL

Australian scientists have said they are hoping to breed sheep that burp less as part of efforts to tackle climate change. The scientists have been trying to identify a genetic link that causes some sheep to belch less than others. Burping is a far greater cause of emissions in sheep than flatulence, they say. About 16% of Australia's greenhouse emissions come from agriculture, says the department of climate change. Australia's Sheep Cooperative Research Council says 66% of agricultural emissions are released as methane from the gut of livestock. "Ninety per cent of the methane that sheep and cattle and goats produce comes from the rumen, and that's burped out," John Goopy from the New South Wales Department of Industry and Investment told ABC. "Not much goes behind - that's horses." The scientists in New South Wales have been conducting experiments in specially designed pens where they measure how much gas sheep emit by burping. They have found, from tests on 200 sheep so far, that the more they eat, the more they belch. But even taking that into account, there appear to be "significant differences" between individual animals, Mr Goopy said. The scientists' goal in the long term is to breed sheep that produce less methane, which produces many times more global warming than carbon dioxide. "We're looking for natural variations so we'll steer the population that way, " said Roger Hegarty, from the Sheep Cooperative Research Council.

German 'Robin Hood' banker gets suspended sentence

A German bank employee who secretly transferred money from rich to poor clients has been given a 22-month suspended prison term. The 62-year-old woman, dubbed the 'Robin Hood Banker', moved more than $11m (£7m) in 117 transfers. The court in Bonn was told that the employee, who has not been named, took no money for herself. The bank made a loss of more than $1.5m (£1m) when poor customers were unable to pay back unauthorised overdrafts. The employee was accused of allowing overdrafts for customers who would not normally qualify for them. Small pension She then used the money from richer customers to temporarily disguise the loans during the bank's monthly audit of overdrafts. The woman has begun reimbursing the bank for the losses, reportedly from a small retirement pension. She could have faced a four-year prison sentence, but the court decided on leniency as she had confessed immediately and did not profit personally. The woman was also considered to have suffered enough, through the loss of her job and the requirement that she pay back the lost funds. (my view)-The woman did NOTHING wrong..the rich have it made.......they do not struggle and this just proves the helping the poor and doing the right thing.....gets you arrested ect.....A FUCKING HATE THE GOVERNMENT...we want want want..thats all you think about....MORE MONEY! sick

Boy, 4, stabbed to death at flat

Murder detectives are waiting to question a father suspected of stabbing his four-year-old son to death before injuring himself. Officers were called to a flat in Southwark, south London, on Monday after people heard a violent argument. Police found the body of a boy with knife wounds. The 31-year-old father is under guard at a south London hospital. His 28-year-old wife suffered a stab wound to the neck but has been discharged. A 17-month-old girl was found unharmed at the address in Lynton Road at about 1800 GMT. A Metropolitan Police spokesman said the man, whose condition is described as "serious", remains under guard in hospital. Officers from the force's child abuse investigation command were waiting to arrest and question him. The spokesman added that no-one has been arrested and officers are not looking for anyone else in connection with the alleged stabbing. The police spokesman said: "At this stage, officers are looking into all the circumstances surrounding the child's death. "There have been no arrests and they are not looking for anyone else in connection with the incident." People living on the Lynton Road estate spoke of their shock at the boy's death. Joan Dixon, 39, who has lived on the estate for 23 years, said: "What I heard was screaming, then my mum saw the police turn up. "We saw the ambulance turn up and they were doing everything they could to resuscitate the man." Her mother Rita Dixon, 71, said: "I saw a man on a stretcher - they were resuscitating him halfway down the stairs and then outside. They were doing everything to sort him out." She said the family "never mixed with anyone, they kept themselves to themselves". Joan Dixon described the area as "no trouble" and "normal and quiet". The death is being investigated by officers led by Det Insp Keith Braithwaite, based at Stratford, east London. (my view)-The so-called father SHOULD be stabbed to death himself.......but justice will NOT be served..you mark my words!

Human/Animal Species!

Tuesday 17th 2009.- Terry,A 43 year old man emailed our HQ in Stafford with a bizarre story to tell and being as we print different articles of interest aswell as the usual ones,we decided to print this.make up your own minds on this one,here's the email: Dear sir or madam, My name is terry and i live in Stafford,you asked us all to email you with stories we have or come into your HQ,so i am emailing to tell you of a weird,fascinating and unexplained sighting. I always get up at 6am and take my dog for a walk at 6:30am i live with my wife,two kids and my dog,we live next to a wood that's kind of big. so we went for her daily walk into the wood, i could see the due in the air hovering like a low cloud and the smell like that of newly fresh cut grass,sammy(my golden retriever) was doing her thing,sniffing and playing around. running around trees and she bought a stick back for me to play fetch with her. so i took the stick and threw it,we played fetch for 20 minutes until Sammy never came back. i was worried as she always returned to me,so i walked a few meters and saw her on a mound smaller then a hill,instead of calling"sam"as i didn't want her to slip and fall down the mound(as the grass was damp- from the due in the air).as i walking up the mound i petted her and said"why didn't you come back" (everyone talks to their pets)and she was staring at something but sam didn't go to investigate like she does with everything else,which i thought was strange,she just stood there. my eyesight isn't very good,so i went in for a closer look and what a saw,change my thoughts on this saying "Are We Alone",as i pushed a bush and stick leaves out of my Field of view and what i could see is what sammy saw. 5 people,2 were having sexual intercourse but it was more animmalistic and the others were climbing trees and running around but here's where it gets weirdly interesting, they were running around on all fours like dogs...yes i said on all fours like dogs. then the two who were having sex were grunting and panting...yes i know what the readers are thinking.if i knew this was going on so i would have taken my camera with me. when the man finished having sex he howled like a wolf and then the woman after waiting a minute or so(not to sound as a perverse who spies on couples i don't,i was watching them all because i was fascinated by them all)was watching her partner(edited from post as this is a public newspaper)while the other were jumping around,climbing trees and carrying sticks in there mouths,well 3 of them anyway,then they were sniffing around on the floor. then i thought"the reason they didn't hear me and smell me"(if what they were actually an animal race of human) was the due(water)was masking my scent or dulling there sense of smell and not hearing me because the noise they all were making. as all this was going on i was thinking"this is like watching a fictional movie of sorts. and could NOT believe what i was witnessing. after the sex all of them started eating something they dug from the ground. the male(which i think is the leader)decided who gets what of the food. as they quited down during feeding,sam barked and they all stared our way and fled...on all fours. after about 10 minutes of sitting down in shock and ore,we walked home. what normally takes 30 minutes took me over an hour to reach home. i was walking slowly as i was thinking"what on earth did i see?" as we got home,i sat in my garden and was trying to make sense of all this. before i knew it,betty(my wife) came out to me and she told me i had been sitting out here for 3 hours....3 hours.i explained all to her and to this day betty doesn't believe it.and 8 days later i was reading your paper and saw that you wanted our stories.so that's my story of what i saw...i never really watched animal-ish movies like:teen wolf or others like these. but now i am watching as many as i can now,since that day a have bought books and dvds on wolves and dogs.all the acts that those people were doing......were on the dvds....but on the dvd were wolves and dogs. since that day i have been going alone(quietly as not to scare them away)and they are always there. so i sit and watch and take notes and post them in my blog...i hope you respect my privacy if i don't give the blog url out(if anyone writes in,because each week people write replies) Terry. ---(my view)-as you can tell by the date in this post(not when i posted this article)is 3 days old,the reason is,this story holds is person attachment to me(don't ask)so i have no real view you would not except other then-YOUR NOT ALONE-
