Face transplants could one day be routine
Follow-ups on two landmark surgeries find patients blinking, smiling

LONDON - Transplanting faces may seem like science fiction, but doctors say the experimental surgeries could one day become routine.

Two of the world's three teams that have done partial face transplants reported Friday that their techniques were surprisingly effective, though complications exist and more work is still needed.
The whole story.

I can think of a few naked women I would like to transplant my face under.

Italian priest organizes beauty contest for nuns

Quote:

"We are not going to parade nuns in bathing suits," Rungi said by telephone from his town of Mondragone. "But being ugly is not a requirement for becoming a nun. External beauty is gift from God, and we mustn't hide it."

The fighting started this week when Coach Wilfred Vidro refused a directive by league officials to replace 9-year-old pitcher Jericho Scott, whose pitching they say is so hard, fast and accurate that it might frighten or discourage other players

...

Coach Vidro and the Scotts claim the real reason league authorities want Jericho on a team other than Vidro’s Wilpower Fitness is because they have a vested interested in another team that is second in the standings and can’t get to number one past Jericho’s winning arm.

They said that team is sponsored by Carlito’s barber shop and that league president Reynaldo Reyes owns it. Noble said Reyes does have a chair at the barber shop temporarily while his own beauty shop is restored after a fire.

Nine year old forced to quit pitching. He is too good.

Cat survives being walled in under bath for 7 weeks

Quote:

By the time the neighbor heard Bonny's plaintive miaowing from behind the tiles on August 8, the cat's weight had dropped from 13 pounds to 4 pounds.
Poor kitty! :(

Actually, I'd disagree. Or at least, I'd hope that my guardian angel wouldn't let me be walled up for 7 weeks.

How is this even possible, btw? There must have been a water leak...

Sad for trapped kitty. Happy for rescued kitty!
