Girl Drinks Liquid Nitrogen Cocktail, Gets Stomach Removed

A TEENAGE girl needed a life-saving operation to remove her STOMACH after drinking a cocktail laced with liquid nitrogen.

Gaby Scanlon, 18, was rushed to hospital after downing two 'Nitro Jagermeister' drinks on a boozy night out.

Surgeons found she had a perforated stomach — and feared she would die unless they removed it straight away.

Her parents were last night at their daughter's bedside at Royal Lancaster Infirmary, where she is "serious but stable".

Sixth-form student Gaby had been out with pals in Lancaster city centre and had drunk the Jagermeister and liquid nitrogen cocktails in Oscar's Wine Bar and Bistro.

The chemical, popularised by TV chef Heston Blumenthal, vaporises at -196°C and in drinks creates a smoky "dry ice" effect.

Although her pals suffered no ill-effects, Gaby, from nearby Heysham, began to feel breathless. She then had severe stomach pains and was rushed to hospital at 11pm.

Lancashire police said an investigation was under way and added: "Medical opinion is that this would have proved fatal had the operation not been carried out urgently.

"The premises involved have suspended drinks involving liquid nitrogen."

Puppy Buried Alive!

On Thursday afternoon, as Williston cops were destroying evidence to comply with a court order, they heard an animal whimpering, according to a news release from the Williston Police Department.

The sounds appeared to be coming from under the surface of the ground. So the officers carefully started digging, about six-inches down, they found a male puppy about two weeks old.
The puppy,  whose eyes had not opened yet, was taken to the Levy Animal Clinic, where it's being cared for and will be placed in a richly-deserved loving home.
Authorities do not think the puppy had been buried long before being found.

Angry Owls Attack!

Some suburban joggers have recently reported seeing and being attacked by owls, WTOP reports.

• Laurie Cantillo said she felt a "scraping sensation" on the right side of her head while jogging off Grubb Road in Silver Spring. After shooing the bird away, she did an online search for what she saw and believes it might have been a barred owl.
• Peter Grace told the Washington Post that he was attacked by a large owl earlier this month along Glen Cove Parkway in Bethesda. He was attacked again the following day and said the bird swooped down on his head three times with its talons.
• Stuart Kern said an owl came at him "just like a nature program," the Post reported. He was in northwest DC, but he lives in Silver Spring. 

A biologist with DC's department of the environment told WTOP the owls may have mistaken the people's hair for small animals or perhaps felt threatened when one of the joggers moved too close to it.

Iranian News Posts An Onion Story As True

An Iranian news agency picked up — as fact — a story from the paper about a supposed survey showing an overwhelming majority of rural white Americans would rather vote for Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad than President Barack Obama. But it was made up, like everything in the just-for-laughs newspaper, which is headquartered in Chicago.
The English-language service of Iran's semiofficial Fars news agency republished the story Friday, several days after it appeared in The Onion.
The Iranian version copied the original word-for-word, even including a made-up quote from a fictional West Virginia resident who says he'd rather go to a baseball game with Ahmadinejad because "he takes national defense seriously, and he'd never let some gay protesters tell him how to run his country like Obama does."
