Schools Crack Down on Cheetos – Teachers patrol halls
USA – Teachers across several states are patrolling hallways searching for students in possession of snack food contraband but there’s one hot & spicy treat that is Enemy Number One – Flamin’ Hot Cheetos.
A spokesman for the Pasadena School system told Fox News that the ban was part of a district-wide wellness policy – and that most of the guidelines come from the federal government.
The teacher at Lyndon B. Johnson Middle School warned parents that Hot Cheetos are not only unhealthy but can also spread germs because the students share their Cheetos. More

US Secret Service scared of big lizards
Thailand - United States Secret Service agents were taken aback on seeing large water monitors wandering the grounds of Government House during security inspections ahead of President Barack Obama`s visit. They mistook them for the ferocious, carnivorous komodo dragons found in parts of Indonesia, a Government House source said. Thai officials calmed their nerves, explaining to them the creatures are relatively harmless. Monitor lizards are commonly found at Government House as the compound is surrounded by canals. US embassy officials accompanying the team told the agents the reptiles could also be found at the US embassy office on Witthayu Road. More

Shark Falls From Sky Onto Golf Course
A shark has been rescued after it dropped out of the sky onto the 12th hole at a golf course in California.
San Juan Hills Golf Club operations director Melissa McCormack said a course marshal found the leopard shark writhing around on the course and brought it to the clubhouse.
There the two-foot long fish was placed into a bucket of water which was quickly salted by an employee who remembered that it would normally be found in seawater.
Cart attendant Bryan Stizer reportedly used his break to drive the shark back to the Pacific Ocean, about five miles away.
It is believed the shark had been snatched up by a large bird of prey, such as an osprey or peregrine falcon, which then lost its grip on its dinner. More

Thief runs off with hand bag - then returns it to owner
Jeremy Clark, 38, said he was at home in Maple Drive, Burgess Hill, when he spotted a fox making off with his wife`s handbag - then return it to her. He was preparing to go to hospital with his wife, Anna, 35, when the cunning carnivore made his move. "Next thing I knew he had my wife`s handbag in his mouth and was running towards the bushes." Jeremy screamed at the fox to drop the bag but he scuttled off out of sight. But a few minutes later the guilty looking fox crept back into the car park with his bushy tail between his legs. In his mouth was Anna`s bag which he dropped at her feet before running off. More
