Donkey can fly. | Animal Cruelty
Police in southern Russia will launch a probe into an initiative by local entrepreneurs who sent a donkey into the sky on a parachute in an advertising stunt. The official spokesman for the local directorate of the Interior Ministry told reporters that the parachuting donkey incident took place last Thursday on an Azov Sea beach in the Temryk District in Krasnodar. "They gave this donkey a parachute ride in order to attract holidaymakers' attention to this sort of entertainment. The parasailing donkey brayed and the children cried, but no one was smart enough to inform the police about the incident," RIA Novosti news agency quoted the official as saying Monday. The police will launch a probe and if the entrepreneurs are found guilty, they could face criminal persecution under the article on cruel treatment of animals of the Russian Criminal Code, which carries a maximum punishment of two years in prison.

Dream Sports Car
Cars are the best fashion accessory and probably every man dreams of having one of the world’s most powerful and most attractive cars.
Here is the countdown:
Lexus LF-A
The Lexus LF-A is the single most baffling car of 2009, maybe even the decade. It’s also possibly the best Japanese car but, seeing as it costs a comical $375,000, perhaps it’s the worst. God knows, it may even be both. This is a carbon-fibre-bodied, mid-engined supercar, powered by a 552bhp 4.8-litre V10 engine, that can rip to 62mph in 3.7sec and on to a 202mph top speed. The LF-A is a more chunky Transformer than curvy Megan Fox.
Porsche Carrera GT
The Porsche Carrera GT is probably 100 years of human achievement crammed into three cubic feet of titanium, magnesium, aluminium and raw, unadulterated, visceral, screaming power. Powered by a heart made of pure fire, a V10 engine with 612 bhp, this incredible supercar is able to sprint from 0 to 62 mph in just 3.9 seconds and it could reach a top speed of 205 mph.
Bentley Continental Supersports
Bentley are well known for their fine quality limos but they decided to use their experience to make a monstrously capable supercar. The Bentley Continental Supersports is a lightened two-seater version of the Bentley Continental with a 621HP twin-turbo W12 engine, a top speed of 204mph and an ability to get from 0-60 in 3.7 seconds.
Lamborghini Murcielago LP670-4 SuperVeloce
The Lamborghini Murcielago LP670-4 SuperVeloce is the fastest and most pure sports car ever to roll out of the Italian car icon’s factory. The car looks incredible, needless to say. It looks like the birth-child of Darth Vader and a Euro Fighter. Or in other words absolutely evil and aggressive. With its 670 HP V12 engine this car is able to sprint to 62 mph from standstill in just 3.2 seconds and it could reach a breahtaking top speed of 212 mph.
McLaren MP4-12C
The McLaren MP4-12C is the next chapter in McLaren’s supercardom story. The car was revealed just a couple of months ago and it already seems to be one of the best supercars ever! The MP4-12C is able to crack the 62 mph mark in “under three seconds” and its 0-124 mph time is “under 10 seconds”. Its top speed wasn’t even announced yet but it’s probably going to be well over 200 mph.
Ferrari 458 Italia
The Ferrari 458 Italia is the stallion’s fastest road-going car yet and one of the most beautiful Ferraris ever. The car was designed by the famous Italian design company Pininfarina and besides being extremetely eye catching and aggressive, this car also slices through air more efficiently than any other Ferrari. With a top speed of 203mph, and a 0-60mph time of just 3.4sec, this is the fastest road-going Ferrari to date.
Bugatti Veyron
The Bugatti Veyron might be the definition of perfection when we’re talking about supercars. It started from one man’s dream to brake the 250 mph barrier who wanted a car with 1,000 HP and asked his engineers to glue together two Audi V8 engines to create a W16. This was then garnished with four superchargers and produced as much power as the earth’s core. And also as much heat. His enginers were horrified but somehow they managed to cool down this monster with 10 radiators. Thanks to its massive power and perfect aerodynamics it can do 252 mph. 0 to 62 mph time – ONLY 2.5 seconds. It’s top speed means this road going car is faster than a F1 car and it’s even faster than a lot of small planes too.
Mercedes SLS AMG
Mercedes has dusted down one if its most fascinating cars, the 1954 300 SL Gullwing for inspiration for the new Mercedes SLS AMG and it paid off beautifully. The result is a modern sports car which is Neither retro nor ultra-modern and it fuses some old-school details with more contemporary touches. Powered by a 6.3L V8 engine with 571 HP, the SLS AMG can reach 62 mph from standstill in 3.7 seconds and a top speed which was electronically limited to 197 mph.
Audi R8 V10
This is an outstanding-looking car: low-slung and sharply executed, the Audi R8 could leave anyone underwhelmed. The R8 is like a jewel and its distinctive side blades and eye catching LED lights are just the mini cherries on the top of the regular cherry on the top of the sundae of hotness, that is this car. Audi can feel a little smug about its trademark 518bhp, 5.2-litre V10 engine, capable of 0-62mph in 3.9sec and a top speed of 197mph.
Aston Martin One-77
Aston Martin One-77 is one of the most beautiful and also most exclusive cars in the world. Exclusivity for one: as the name suggests, just 77 will be built, of which Aston Martin has already sold more than 50 before anyone outside the company has driven it. It has a gargantuan 7.3-litre engine generating more than 700bhp, more than any roadgoing Ferrari, Lamborghini or Porsche has produced. The One-77 can accelerate from 0 to 62mph in less than 3.5 seconds and it could reach a breathtaking top speed of 220 mph! The One-77 is more than the ultimate Aston: it is the company’s claim to a place at the supercar top table.

World Cup octopus predicts next Russian president
(Reuters) - One of Russia's most popular newspapers said on Friday it had managed to get Paul, the oracle German octopus which accurately predicted the World Cup results, to forecast who will be Russia's next president.
But shhhhhh...Komsomolskaya Pravda said the results of Paul's prediction for the 2012 presidential election have been sealed until election year.The paper said one of its reporters approached Paul, who lives at the Sea Life attraction in the German city of Oberhausen and put two sheets of paper with the names of Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin and President Dmitry Medvedev in front of the soothsaying invertebrate, which pointed to one of the names with a tentacle.
Since Medvedev replaced Putin as president in 2008, with the latter taking over the cabinet, it has been unclear who is the number one decision-maker in a country with a tradition of strong, individual rulers.
A recent poll conducted by Russia's Levada-Centre shows that 76 percent of respondents believe Putin is the country's most influential person, while 67 percent see Medvedev as top leader.
Both politicians at some point said they were considering running for president in 2012. In April Medvedev said they would decide together who is going to run. Putin said in June they would talk about it closer to the election date.
Paul the octopus became famous for accurately predicting the outcome of Germany's World Cup campaign and the World Cup final between Spain and The Netherlands.His Russian presidential pick has been conducted in a fashion rather different to his World Cup prognostications, where he predicted football matches by picking food from two different transparent containers lowered into his tank, each adorned with the flag of one of the matches' competitors.
