The Queen tasted one and immediately spat it out. She ordered her servants to shove the rest of the grapes up Malcolm Goldstein's ass. The servants did their duty, and left Malcolm Goldstein lying on theground screaming.

Eduardo Aguirre was the next to arrive with some yummy apples. The same thing happened to him, but curiously he laughed as the apples were shoved up his ass. Malcolm Goldstein was shocked. Here he was with grapes up his ass howling in pain, but Eduardo Aguirre had several apples in his ass and he was laughing. He asked him ''What the hell are you laughing about?''

A laughing Eduardo Aguirre replied ''Tony Danza's coming back with a watermelon.'''

Investigating a terrible accident

11:50 PM by mr. simplicity · 0 comments

There was a terrible bus accident. Unfortunately, no one survived the accident except a monkey which was on board and there were no witnesses. The police try to investigate further but they get no results. At last, they try to interrogate the monkey. The monkey seems to respond to their questions with gestures. Seeing that, they start asking the questions.

The police chief asks, "What were the people doing on the bus?"

The monkey shakes his head in a condemning manner and starts dancing around; meaning the people were dancing and having fun.

The chief asks, "Yeah, but what else were they doing?".

The monkey uses his hand and takes it to his mouth as if holding a bottle.

The chief says, "Oh! They were drinking, huh??!" The chief continues, "Okay, were they doing anything else?"

The monkey nods his head and moves his mouth back and forth, meaning they were talking.

The chief loses his patience, "If they were having such a great time, who was driving the stupid bus then?"

The monkey cheerfully swings his arms to the sides as if grabbing a wheel.

Is He Pregnant?

6:20 PM by mr. simplicity · 0 comments


If you think that this man in the picture has a pot belly due to all that junk what he ate then you are mistaken. Sanju Bhagat, a 36 year old farmer's stomach was so swollen at one point that it seemed he was pregnant . He felt self-conscious and embarrassed his entire life since he was teased of being pregnant. But his swollen tummy resulted into severe pain one fine night of June 1999 and he was rushed to the hospital. And what doctors found was not less than a shock to him as well all those who witnessed the operation.

Doctors thought that Bhagat had a large tumor inside his stomach but were amazed when they found lots of bones, limbs, part of genitalia, some part of hair, jaws etc. This was just not what they were expecting. Inside his stomach was a half-formed creature which had developed feet and hands and had long fingernails.

It was then the doctors realized that creature found in Bhagat's stomach was no one but his own twin. He had one of the world's most bizarre medical conditions- fetus in fetu. This abnormality is extremely rare and occurs when a fetus gets trapped in its own twin and survives as a parasite and leaches its twin's blood supply.

As for now Bhagat is very relieved after the operation and is happy that he would be able to lead a normal life without those nasty comments. And doctors still wonder about this medical miracle.



ABSTRACT


Fetus in fetu is a rare condition in which a fetiform calcified mass often is present in the abdomen of its host, a newborn or an infant. We report on a case of a 19-month-old girl whose plain abdominal radiograph, ultrasonography, and computed tomography scan revealed a mass in which the contents favor a fetus in fetu rather than a teratoma. The noncalcified vertebral column invisible on the radiographs was identified by the pathologist; therefore, the nonvisualization of the vertebral axis on radiography or on computed tomography scan does not exclude the diagnosis of fetus in fetu.

Key words: fetus in fetu, spine of fetus, teratoma, twin, intraabdominal mass, parasitic twin.


The term fetus in fetu is used to point out an unequal division of totipotential cells of a blastocyst where the result is the inclusion of a small cellular mass in the more mature embryo. This is a form of monozygotic diamniotic twin pregnancy where the parasitic twin installs and grows in the body of its partner.1 This is a rare malformation that has some similarities with the retroperitoneal teratoma, but it is different from the latter by its fetiform aspect and the metameric segmentation of its spinal axis. The presence of a capsule covering this formation and a vascular pedicle is frequently encountered.2


In reality, one may find cases whose vertebral column is insufficiently calcified and therefore invisible on the plain radiograph. It may also be nonexistent but, because of the organogenetic differentiation, one may link this fetiform mass to the diagnosis of fetus in fetu.




CASE REPORT



A 19-month-old girl was hospitalized because of an abdominal mass of some months' duration. She was the only child in her family where there was neither twin pregnancy nor fetal malformation. Her body weight was 10 kg. Except for the presence of a mass in the upper right abdomen, the clinical examination and laboratory findings were normal. The plain film of the abdomen showed left-sided calcifications adjacent to the spine at the fourth and fifth lumbar vertebrae and the first sacral vertebra (Fig 1). These calcifications had the appearance of limb bones rather than vertebral bodies. Abdominal ultrasonography showed a hypoechoic mass with hyperechoic structures inside that extended from the lower border of the liver to the hypogastric region. An abdominal computed tomography (CT) scan (Figs 2, 3, and 4) showed a thick-walled mass that measured approximately 90 × 65 mm including solid, cystic, and calcified components. The calcifications resembled cranial bones and long bones, but a vertebral axis was not visualized. The mass was displacing the transverse colon downward and the small bowel downward and posteriorly.


Fig. 1. Plain film of the abdomen. Calcified mass (arrows) at the left border of lumbosacral vertebrae L4, L5, and S1.

Fig. 2. Axial CT at the L2 level. In front of the vertebral column, there is a well-defined mass with 2 cystic formations. In the larger formation, which is anterior and on the left side, there are long and hyperdense opacities corresponding to fetal limbs.

Fig. 3. Axial CT at the L3 level. In front of the vertebral column, there is a cystic mass containing fluid and some calcified opacities that correspond to fetal bones.




Fig. 4. Axial CT at the L3-L4 levels. In the midline of the abdomen, there is a round hyperdense opacity that corresponds to the fetal skull.



Based on these imaging findings, a diagnosis of fetus in fetu was thus made preoperatively.


The surgeon discovered a well-encapsulated retroperitoneal mass behind the transverse mesocolon. This mass had a pedicle that was connected to the superior mesenteric artery. Excision of the capsule revealed a yellowish fluid and an incompletely developed fetus covered by vernix caseosa.


The postoperative course was uneventful and the patient was discharged on the eighth postoperative day.


A radiograph of the specimen showed cranial bones and long bones but no vertebral column. On the macroscopic pathologic examination, the mass measured 20 × 8 × 5 cm and was composed of a head with hair, a trunk, and rudimentary limbs corresponding to an incompletely developed fetus. A soft vertebral axis was found behind the intestinal loops, colon, and liver. (Figs 5 and 6). Microscopically, there were hepatic cells, biliary tract cells, splenic tissue, and pulmonary tissue. Most of these cells were in blastic stage and not well-differentiated. The bony tissue was essentially composed of osteoblasts with little bone marrow. The nervous tissue was mostly formed by glial cells and not well-differentiated neurons.




Fig. 5. The postoperative specimen shows a fairly well-developed fetus lying on its back. The head is on the right side (thick black arrow), the buttocks on the left side (2 small arrows). The left arm, left leg, and feet are clearly seen (small separated arrows). The intestines are visible on the anterior abdominal wall, which is open (white curved arrow).



Fig. 6. The postoperative specimen shows the fetus in prone position: the head on the left side (thick arrow) and the buttocks on the right side (small black arrows). The right shoulder and arm can be visualized (small white arrows) as a minor formation.

The bulletproof toilet.The bulletproof toilet.

The next time you hear the terrorism alarm sound and you happen to see one of these washrooms nearby, quickly hop into it, lock the doors and pray. The structure is bulletproof, and can even withstand a 15-ton blast. So you are pretty safe from whatever that is happening out there. But if the terrorists decide to blast open your door Hollywood-style, I guess it’s still Game Over for you.

At this moment, eight of these toilets were spotted at Zhongguancun Plaza, Beijing.

Lesson in life and death: pupils build dying teacher's coffin

10:50 PM by mr. simplicity · 0 comments


Special project: These primary school children have nearly finished their woodwork assignment - they only have the coffin's lid left to craft.


Michael Leidig, London
February 14, 2007

A DUTCH primary school teacher dying of cancer is overseeing one last class project: her pupils are making her coffin.

Eri van den Biggelaar, 40, has just a few weeks to live after being diagnosed last year with an aggressive form of cervical cancer.

She asked the woodwork teacher, a friend, to build a coffin for her. "Why don't you let the children make it?" replied Erik van Dijk.

Now pupils of the school in Someren, who normally plane wood for baskets and placemats, have been helping with the finishing touches. They have already sawed more than 100 narrow boards and glued them together. Only the lid needs to be completed.

The coffin now stands in the middle of one of the classrooms.

Although Miss van den Biggelaar can no longer teach, she has looked at sketches of the coffin and is being kept up to date about it by pupils, aged between four and 11, who visit her at home.

"Life and death belong together," she said. "The children realised that when I explained it to them. I didn't want to be morbid about it, I wanted them to help me. I told them: 'Where I will go is much nicer than this world.' "

None of the children considered it creepy or was afraid and nobody felt traumatised, she said. Parents of the children involved all gave their consent.

But in neighbouring Belgium the project has caused uproar.

Belgian therapists specialising in bereavement have complained that young children are not able to fully appreciate the consequences of the death of a friend, grandparent or parent.

Miss van den Biggelaar, however, thinks that the uproar shows how necessary it is to tell children about death, mourning and pain.

When her grandfather died, she felt lonely and nobody spoke to her, she said.

"As a little child, I stood with flowers at his grave and did not know why people were crying."

Catch a thief and win a motorbike

10:28 PM by mr. simplicity · 0 comments

KUALA LUMPUR (Reuters) - Malaysia's main ruling party has volunteered to help curb street crime, offering new motorbikes to gangs of illegal street racers if they spend their time catching thieves instead.
ADVERTISEMENT

Illegal racing and bag-snatch robberies are twin scourges of Malaysian streets. Bag-snatchers are usually men who grab women's handbags as they race past them on motorcycles, often dragging them head-first into the pavement and sometimes killing them.

"Once they catch at least 30 snatch thieves, we will reward them with a motorcycle each as an incentive," Abdul Azeez Abdul Rahim, head of the party's junior wing, told the Star newspaper.

The United Malays National Organization party has tried to reach out to illegal racers, usually jobless or lowly paid youths, to persuade them to give up racing and join the party.

"Instead of wasting their time, they might as well help police combat crime," Abdul Azeez said.

Couple Plan to Tie the Knot in Graveyard

9:46 PM by mr. simplicity · 0 comments

PACIFIC, Mo., Feb. 19, 2007
By JIM SUHR Associated Press Writer
(AP) It's not the traditional "till death do us part," but Scott Amsler and Miranda Patterson believe getting hitched in a graveyard is just thinking outside the box.

Come September, the Illinois couple expects to pledge their undying love among the dearly departed in this St. Louis suburb's city cemetery, even though those who approved the request are dead set against seeing it become a trend.

The wedding wouldn't be out of character for Amsler, 27, a computer expert for a financial company by day and rehabber of old hearses by night.

The graveyard, he said, just has a certain tranquility and thriftiness for nuptials the young couple insists will be small, private and traditional _ except for the bagpipes, Amsler's refurbished hearse and the throng of eternally silent witnesses.

"People are going to think how they want. I don't actively try to convince people that my interests are normal or logical," Amsler said. "I'm not a freak or Satan worshipper or cult member. It just goes with our theme."

Deep down, the couple said, it just seemed right.

Amsler and Patterson, who recently moved to Collinsville, Ill., became an item not long after they met in November 2005 at a birthday party where Patterson, 21, was to have been the celebrant's blind date. Amsler showed up in a retooled hearse that caught Patterson's eye.

"I wanted a ride in it but I chickened out at the last minute," she said.

By their first date weeks later, on New Year's Eve, Patterson knew Amsler was the one. Not long afterward, she quit her factory job in Sullivan, Mo., and moved in with Amsler in Troy, Ill.

Amsler proposed last June, affixing to the side of the 1965 hearse _ which the two call "Edgar" _ a plate with a simple message: "Will you marry me?" Seconds later, the ring slid onto a crying Patterson's finger.

She received Edgar as an engagement gift and had only one stipulation: The wedding had to be outside, in a gazebo.

Her worries were laid to rest while she and Amsler drove to her dad's house. While traveling on Interstate 44, Patterson spotted a gazebo on a hilltop, only to find it was in a graveyard. No worries.

"The view was just gorgeous," she said. "I said, `This is where I want to get married.'"

When the couple called last fall for permission to use the three-acre cemetery, which dates to the Civil War, City Clerk Jo Ann Hoehne told them the local cemetery committee would have to decide.

"When I spoke to them, they were just a normal young couple who wanted to have a wedding some place they thought was nice and serene for a very small, intimate wedding," Hoehne said. "They weren't any cult group or anything like that."

Bill Hohman, a 71-year-old alderman on the cemetery panel, wasn't sure what to think.

"It's strange to me. This is kind of an unusual thing around here," he said of the country town where the roughly 5,700 residents "roll up the sidewalks at nine o'clock, and everyone goes to bed."

The committee last month signed off on the couple's request despite concerns about the appropriateness of the setting for the occasion _ and fears that a burial might be scheduled for the same time.

Hohman, though, vows to introduce a measure to make Amsler-Patterson nuptials the last among this town's tombstones. "Once the horse is out of the barn, you have to have an ordinance," he said.

But Patterson said she and Amsler have respect for the living and the dead.

"We're not going to do anything stupid or horrible. We just want to have a wedding," she said.

"Some of the ladies I work with said, `Are you crazy? Why would you get married in a cemetery?' Does it matter where we get married, just as long as we get married?"
