Dog holds world record for having biggest eyes

Guinness World Records announced on Friday that 4-year-old Bruschi the Boston terrier holds the record for dog with the largest eyes. Each one measures 28 millimeters in diameter.

According to the Guinness World Records website, Bruschi’s owner, Victoria Reed, didn’t really notice her pooch’s enormous eyeballs until many of her friends and family started commenting on their size. That’s when she submitted an application for a Guinness World Records title.

Man celebrating opening new business that teaches people how to operate parachutes dies in skydiving accident

Former Hoboken resident Robert Ranieri III, 29, died on Tuesday in a skydiving accident over Lake Tahoe in California. Ranieri was making a skydive to celebrate opening his new business that teaches people how to operate parachutes, according to his grandfather, former Hoboken assemblyman and councilman Robert Ranieri Sr.

Ranieri III’s first chute twisted and an emergency chute didn’t open, his grandfather said. Ranieri III’s body was found 15 feet below the surface in Lake Tahoe. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has been holding his body pending an investigation to rule out foul play.

He leaves behind a wife, an 8-month-old child, parents, grandparents and two siblings. After a memorial service near Lake Tahoe, his family plans to have his body brought to Hoboken for his funeral at Lawton-Turso Funeral Home.

Jellyfishbowl

One type of sea life has proven tough to keep in home aquariums: jellyfish. The blobby beasties get shredded like Kleenex in the filters. This 7-gallon tank — a project that got funded through Kickstarter — solves that by using a laminar-flow system to circulate the water in a controlled swirl, nudging the jellies to the middle of the tank and away from danger. The kit takes about 10 minutes to assemble and includes a voucher for three moon jellyfish, shipped overnight in Styrofoam coolers along with a six-month supply of frozen brine shrimp. Slip them into the water, turn on the color-changing LED light, and … dude, whoa! Bad news is your stoned friends will never leave ! lol

Volcanic eruptions trigger shocking finding

Volcanic eruptions can spark squalls of lightning that are as intense as the biggest superstorms over the central United States, according to researchers who have captured the most detailed measurements of electrical discharges during a volcanic blast. The data, they say, could help to illuminate what causes volcanic lightning and point the way towards a system that can quickly detect ash plumes from remote eruptions, which can disrupt air travel.

Solar-powered airplane attempts transcontinental flight

A Solar Impulse aircraft takes off at Payerne airport May 24, 2012, piloted by André Borschberg. The Solar Impulse HB-SIA prototype aircraft, which has 12,000 solar cells built into its jumbo-jet-sized wings (about 200 feet long), attempted its first intercontinental flight from Switzerland to Morocco with a few days for a technical stop and a change of pilot in Madrid. This flight will act as a final rehearsal for the 2014 round-the-world flight.

What's a Dog to do ?

A&E cancelled Dog the Bounty Hunter on Monday after eight seasons of chases, takedowns, religious lectures and family squabbles -- and occasional legal headaches for the network. The reality series followed mullet-sporting Duane (Dog) Chapman as he ran his family bounty-hunting business and wanted men and women ran away from him. In 2006, Chapman, his son and another bounty hunter were arrested on charges of illegal detention in the capture of Max Factor heir Andrew Luster in Mexico. Luster had fled the country while on trial on charges he raped three women. Charges against the three bounty hunters were eventually dropped by a Mexican court. One of Dog's collars sued Chapman and two of his sons last year, claiming a 2009 arrest that they instigated led to his firing, the Colorado Springs Gazette reported. Those two sons, Duane Chapman 2nd and Leland Chapman, later left the show -- and stopped talking to the rest of the family. Dog's daughter Lyssa was arrested last year in Hawaii after allegedly cursing and banging on doors in a residential neighbourhood.

Drunk golfer used city as driving range

A man was arrested on Saturday for using the centre of the historic German city of Cologne as a driving range, after one of his wayward iron shots hit a taxi. The taxi had just stopped to let in a new passenger when there was a loud bang against the car. "I saw some damage on the taxi to the right of the trunk," the startled taxi driver said. "Then I looked on the ground and found a golf ball." When he got out he was amazed to see the rogue golfer holding a club and repeatedly hitting balls on to the street.

The driver confronted the 44-year-old, who merely began swearing at him, packed up his clubs and walked off. According to a police report filed on Sunday, the taxi driver then followed the man in his car to remonstrate with him further, and got out to confront him. This apparently riled the golfer, who pulled out a knife and pointed at it. It is understood the cabbie decided not to be the caddy. Police then arrested the inebriated golfer and took him to a cell to sober up. He has been arrested on charges of dangerously interfering with traffic, property damage, abusive and threatening behaviour.

Future Bluetooth ?

Although it might sound like something from a science fiction novel, scientists at the University of Washington are working on solar powered contact lenses with transparent LEDs embedded onto the lens. This technology could be applied in countless ways, from health monitoring to text translation right in front of the wearer's eyes.
