Trainee nurses fired after group sex in ward

The department of health is horrified at an incident in which five trainee nurses openly engaged in sex in a children's ward.

The incident took place at the Charles Johnson Memorial Hospital in Nquthu, in northern KwaZulu-Natal. A mother, who had come to visit her sick child, was alarmed by screams and strange noises.

Upon investigation she witnessed two female nurses and three males laughing loudly and engaging in group sex on one of the beds.

The group had showed arrogance towards the mother, said hospital spokesperson Francis Zuma.

"The nurses told the woman that 'having sex could not be new to her', and they continued with their sexual escapades and kept changing partners."

Tell-tale parrot exposes cheating girlfriend

Chris Taylor, a 30-year-old British computer programmer, grew suspicious of his live-in girlfriend when his pet parrot began to imitate her saying, “I love you, Gary.”

Ziggy, an 8-year-old African gray parrot, would also make kissing noises whenever the name Gary was mentioned on TV and would mimic Suzy Collins saying, “Hiya, Gary,” every time she answered her mobile phone.

Confronted with the evidence, Collins admitted to a month-long affair with a coworker named Gary and moved out of their shared Leeds apartment that same night.

A man and his car--reunited after 36 years

NEW YORK -- Alan Poster had been going through a rough time that winter. A 26-year-old guitar salesman, he had just divorced and moved from Queens to a studio in lower Manhattan. He bought himself a flashy treat that he could barely afford but could not resist: a blue Corvette.

Poster had owned the car for only two or three months when it was stolen from a parking garage. It was Jan. 22, 1969.

Years passed, and there were other cars, but he never forgot that '68 Corvette. "Probably the only car I've ever really loved," Poster, now 63, said last week. "That car and my new life started together."

The new life took him to California.

Turns out, the car followed.

Almost 37 years after the Corvette was stolen, Poster got a call last month that it had been recovered--days before it was supposed to be shipped to a buyer in Sweden. It was flagged during a Customs Service check of the vehicle identification number, sending two New York City detectives on a long-shot search through thousands of crime reports to connect the car to its first owner.

"We can call this a miracle," Poster said. "I stand in the shower going, `Why me?' Has anything like this ever happened to you?"

A high school research assignment on Internet pornography was canceled after parents in this Cleveland suburb complained.

Superintendent Jeff Lampert said that although the teacher's apparent goal _ to discuss the harmful effects of pornography _ was well- intentioned, he agreed with parents that the assignment was inappropriate for 14- and 15-year-old freshmen at Brooklyn High.

The assignment asked students to research pornography on the Internet and list eight facts about pornography. Students also were asked to write their personal views of pornography and any experience they had with it.

Bratz Doll's Thong Surprise

Tiana Ennis was excited about Sasha, the bottle wearing Baby Bratz doll she got Christmas morning, along with 3 other teenage Bratz. They're known for their bold fashion statements. But the 8-year-old was unnerved by the skinny underwear she discovered under the baby bratz's skirt.

It was a thong. Tiana's discomfort is clear as she recounts showing her big sister and mom.
Tiana Ennis/8 Years Old: "I didn't feel too right about it. I said... umm.. she looks too grown wearing that."

Evonne/Tiana's mother: "I just wanted to know why would they put something like this on a baby. If I knew the doll had this on I wouldn't have bought it."

But the Bratz dolls are clearly not conservative. Still, Evonne expected baby bratz were different based on a booklet attached to the package.

British woman weds dolphin

British tourist Sharon Tendler has finally made her dream match - by "marrying" a dolphin she has been visiting for 15 years in the Israeli resort of Eilat, the mass-circulation Yediot Ahronot daily reported.

Tendler, 41, has been visiting the city on the Gulf of Aqaba two or three times a year to spend time with her 35-year-old underwater sweetheart.

"The peace and tranquility under water, and his love, would calm me down," the Israeli daily quoted her as saying.

Last week Tendler finally plucked up the courage to ask the dolphin's trainer for the mammal's fin in marriage.

The wedding took place Wednesday, with the bride, wearing a white dress and watched by amazed spectators, walking down the dock to where the groom was waiting in the water.

She kissed him, to the cheers of the spectators and then, after the ceremony was sealed with some mackerels, was tossed into the water so she could swim away with her new husband.

"I'm the happiest girl on earth," the bride was quoted as saying.

"I made a dream come true. And I am not a pervert."
