“How’s this for a night out: here’s a receipt from the Las Vegas nightclub Tryst that comes to a grand total of $189,375.98, including tax and an amazing $29,581.20 tip. Some people are suggesting that the image — posted by Ben Reiter, a staff writer at Sports Illustrated — is possibly photoshopped. But we want to believe.” w/ photo

“This Morning is at the center of controversy after the show played host to a woman claiming the world’s largest breasts at a massive 164XXX. Chelsea Charms appearance on the show with stars Philip Schofield and Ruth Langsford sparked almost 4,000 comments on the This Morning Facebook page. Daytime viewers were left horrified as to why an exotic dancer and stripper more suited to a late night post-watershed show was a guest on the pre-lunchtime magazine show – with the possibility of children watching. However, some viewers were entertained – if somewhat shocked by her appearance – and Ofcom have yet to receive any complaints. ITV meanwhile has yet to explain why Chelsea was chosen as a guest other than for pure titillation. Phillip Scofield posted up a picture of himself with Chelsea after the interview and said simply: ‘Good grief!!’ He had written earlier to his 762,000 followers: ‘The lady with the mahooooosive boobs has arrived! Everyone trying to keep their eyes up… and failing.’ Originally from Minneapolis, 35-year-old Chelsea had her breasts enlarged by means of a now illegal procedure in which polypropylene string was implanted into each breast.” w/ photos

“Sadhu Amar Bharati is an Indian holy man who claims he has kept his right hand raised in the air since 1973. Now, 38 years later, his hand is just a useless piece of skin and bone, but has become a symbol for Shiva worshipers around India. Until 1970, Amar Bharati was an average middle-class man who lived a normal life. He had a job, a home, a wife and three children, but none of that mattered when he woke up one morning and decided to leave everything behind and dedicate his life to serving the Hindu god Shiva. He began wandering the roads of India dressed in his simple Sadhu clothes and carrying only his trusty Trishula (a metal trident). After three years, in 1973, Amar realized he was still too connected to the fading luxury and pleasures of mortal life, and decided to separate himself from them by raising his right arm and keeping it raised. 38 years later, his arm is still up and he couldn’t use it, even if he wanted to.” w/ photos

“Keyring ornaments are perhaps the most useless item you’ll ever carry in your pocket or stuff in your purse — but now, thanks to an increasingly popular item being sold in China, it can easily be the cruelest, too. For the price you might expect to pay for some kitschy trinket, Chinese street vendors are selling live animals, permanently sealed in a small plastic pouch where they can survive for a short while as someone’s conversation piece. Apparently, these unimaginably inhumane keyrings are actually quite popular — and worst of all, it’s totally legal.” w/ photos

“For former chef Li Zongwen a man’s best friend is really his dog, as he looks after more than 140 strays in his home in China. Mr Li, 59, has become a dog’s best friend after adopting a number of stray and abandoned pooches. Walkies must be a nightmare and dealing with the poop almost unimaginable because Li takes care of over 140 of the animals in his home in China. Rescued from the streets on the outskirts of the city of Wuhan, they are given a roof over their heads and a meal to eat. The rescued animals like to sit and watch as the former chef rustles up their grub in a big cauldron using a garden spade. Taking care of more than 140 stray canines is no small task and the dog lover couldn’t do the job without support.” w/ photos

“Guiness can’t run through fields or play in the park like most dogs because he is allergic to grass and suffers a violent reaction if he comes into contact with a single blade… The Staffordshire Bull Terrier suffers from an allergic condition so rare there is no name for it. Experts believe that the he has a virulent form of hayfever. If that wasn’t enough for the poor pooch, he is also on a vegetarian diet due to an allergy to wheat, lamb and beef. Guiness was abandoned by his owners in 2008 because they could no longer cope with him. He is currently being looked after by staff at the Blue Cross animal center in Worchester.” w/ photo

“Lu Hao from China is only three years old yet he weighs a staggering 132 pounds. Nearly five times the normal size of a child his age, he eats three bowls of rice at dinner time. When he was born, Lu Hao only weighed 5lb 8oz, but from the age of three months he started to gain weight very quickly. Just in the past year the toddler has gained 21 pounds. Hao is so heavy that his mother Chen Yuan is now incapable of picking him up. She has to ride him in to kindergarten on a motorbike instead of walking. The boy’s family try to encourage him to exercise, having installed a basketball hoop at home and taking him to the local river to swim. But no matter how much he exercises he continues to get bigger and his parents say that the activities just make him feel hungrier.” w/ photo
