If you have an iPhone you have got to get the score! classic goals app.
You have to recreate classic international goals by swiping the passes and shots.
It's the greatest 79c I've ever spent.
Not sure if it's on Android.

Shame there's no Irish goals on it,would have been nice to see Ronnie Whelans v USSR or Ray Houghton v England thrown in,still it's great craic bending in that Roberto Carlos free.

Just about to nod off to sleep, went to close my window, A MASSIVE INSECT FLEW IN!!

It circled the room, then settled on the lampshade....off course I was too busy running out of my room screaming like a little girl.

I had few options 1) Get my dad, nah he was asleep! 2) Get the cat, that thing loves to kill insects, nowhere to be seen though or 3) Be a man and deal with it myself...So armed with a towel around my head, a tennis racket and a can of raid, I re-entered my room and sprayed the fucker. No success. After ignoring half the spraycan it flew onto my bed. BOOM! I dived onto it and caught it in the towel!

After a furious struggle (may not of happened) I transported the beast wrapped in the towel and threw it out the back, where it limped away, hopefully to tell its mates NEVER to enter my house again :mad:

Seriously though, this thing was HUGE. Reckon it was a queen bee! Now I can't sleep, I feel like something is crawling on my skin all the time!!

WTF?

Naked man shot dead by police as he chewed victim's face off by side of freeway

The moment police shot a naked man to death as he chewed the face off another man has been caught on CCTV.

Images show the legs of two men lying beneath a freeway underpass in Miami when a police car arrives on the scene.

Police shot the man thinking it would end the attack, but the aggressor continued to bite his victim prompting authorities to fire at least half a dozen shots until he died.

The man is fighting for his life in a nearby hospital after suffering critical injuries in the savage attack.
Neither the naked man nor the victim have been identified.
A woman notified a police officer nearby that she had seen two men fighting, witnesses told The Miami Herald.

A series of gunshots were heard at the off-ramp of the MacArthur Causeway along North 13th Street.
When the officer located the men, the aggressive naked male was in the process of chewing the victim, who was also not wearing any clothes, the Herald reported.
The officer demanded that the naked man stop what he was doing

But when he refused to listen and continued to feast on the victim, the officer shot him, according to the newspaper.
Despite suffering a bullet wound, the naked man would not stop so the officer fired about six more shots.
In that barrage of gunfire, the naked man was killed, collapsing face-down on the pedestrian walkway right by the Herald's parking garage.
Javier Ortiz, a police spokesman, said that based on information he's received, the officer who fired the shots 'is a hero and saved a life'.

The victim was transported to Jackson Memorial Hospital Ryder Trauma Center and is said to be suffering from massive injuries.

Very little is known about the circumstances leading up to the attack, but police have speculated that the victim may have been homeless.

Witness Larry Vega told Local 10: 'I stopped a City of Miami police officer and informed him that a homeless man was killing another person by biting and ripping his face to death.'
'The police officer confronted the aggressor, and he was like a rabid dog and confronted the officer. Then the officer shot the person four times,' he continued.

There were no weapons found near the two naked men, leading them to believe that the attacker used his own strength to subdue his victim.
'There are other ways to injure people,' Sergeant Altarr William told The Herald.
'Some people know martial arts, others are very strong and can kill you with their hands.'

No tests have been done to prove this, but police have also stated that they think the attacker was likely suffering from a 'cocaine psychosis', side effects from the drug which raise the body's temperature and prompts the individual to strip.

MacArthur Causeway is a major route that connects downtown Miami to popular South Beach.
Traffic clogged the area for hours as people used the route to descend into South Beach for Urban Beach Week, an annual festival dedicated to hip-hop music.

Right well....erm...after my morning shower I was cleaning my ears with cottons buds, I know not to put it in my ear but there was a ticklish spot and I couldn't help myself.

I pull the thing out but there was no swab on the end! It coulda fell somewhere It doesn't feel like there's anything in my ear.

With himself, he says he sees nothing. Maybe try a pair of tweezers and see....

Nothing has happened since If there's any pain/itch in my ear I'll go to the doc. I got an ear syringe/tweezers, no success. My hearing is fine, ear feels fine, so I dunno if it was OCD or what.
