In a waste-conscious move, the crocodile was “prepared for a feast in the traditional manner,” police said, but not before authorities took the opportunity to give local children an impromptu “crocodile safety session,” including an “up-close look at the dangers within our waterways.” Speaking
to public broadcaster ABC, Northern Territory Police Sergeant Andrew McBride said the animal was “cooked up into crocodile tail soup, he was on the barbecue, a few of the pieces were wrapped up in banana leaves and cooked underground.” “It was a rather large traditional feast and there were a few full bellies,” Sergeant McBride said.

The fact is that screwball started in the wake of the Production Code, when there were things that could no longer be shown, so they were talked about instead, by the kinds of people who knew...

Doctors described a case of a rare infection called ocular pentastomiasis, which is caused by a parasite known to lay its eggs in snakes. A
mass that had been growing in a woman's eye for two years turned out to be a parasite that sometimes passes from reptiles to humans, doctors say. The doctors flagged contaminated crocodile meat as a potential source of the rare infection, which may make it the first case of its kind in medical literature, they reported Thursday (April 11) in JAMA Ophthalmology. The report's authors diagnosed the woman with an infection called "ocular pentastomiasis," a...

CAIR lobby's racist-Arab islamic-fadcist Rashida Tlaib (D-Gaza/Ramallah) crocodile tears

Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Ramallah) is fighting back using a strategy that Islamist spokesmen in the West have frequently favored over the years: she’s lying. This
shouldn’t come as any surprise to anyone: in the book that those spokesmen and Tlaib consider to be holy, lying to infidels. Of course Tlaib knows that "From the river to the sea" means racist supremacist Arab Islamic ethnic cleansing of Jews. With those same fake tears this bigot repeated the bloodlibel when jihadiats killed their people in the al-Ahli Hispital on Oct/17 and blamed Israel for their crimes.

The last time Hogan, 82, was photographed in public was last May when he was thought to be pinning up an angry note to vagrants camped outside his $3.5million Venice mansion. Hogan denied writing the sign that...
