Swede Shocked by Elk Threesome
A man in Sweden was greeted by an unusual sight on Wednesday morning when he saw three elk engaged in what appeared to be group sex in his backyard. "I had just gone out on the balcony to get some fresh air," Peter Lundgren, a 43-year-old marketing manager from Lindome, told The Local. "They were eating apples and then suddenly they assumed the position," Lundgren said. He grabbed his camera to document the young male elk mounting an older female elk, which in turn appeared to be licking the rear end of another young male elk. “I'd never seen anything like it. Not with elk, at least,” he said. Elk are a common sight in his neighbourhood, frequently roaming from nearby wooded areas through people's yards. While he is used to seeing elk get tipsy from eating fermented apples, Lundgren said he was wholly unprepared to have a front row seat at an elk sex show taking place in his backyard.

The Young Man and the Sea
Poon Lim, a 25-year-old Chinese seaman from Hainan, was second steward on the British merchant ship, Ben Lomond, which was carrying a crew of 55. It was torpedoed by a German U-boat on 23 November 1942. Poon Lim leaped over the side. He had tied a life jacket around himself, so he surfaced and swam away from the freighter.

Sheep on Meth Shocked With Tasers
Cocaine is a hell of a drug, but getting shocked with a Taser while riding high on methamphetamines probably beats any white-knuckled cocaine experience hands down. And that's exactly what happened to some lucky sheep in a new study that tested the effects of Tasers on meth-addled targets, funded in part by Taser International.

Let them eat shit
Japanese scientists have found a way to create artificial meat from sewage containing human feces. Somehow this feels like a Vonnegut plotline: population boom equals food shortage. Solution? Synthesize food from human waste matter. Absurd yes, but Japanese scientists have actually discovered a way to create edible steaks from human feces. Mitsuyuki Ikeda, researcher at Okayama Laboratory, has developed steaks based on proteins from human excrement. Tokyo Sewage approached the scientist because of an overabundance of sewage mud. They asked him to explore the possible uses of the sewage, and Ikeda found that the mud contained a great deal of protein because of all the bacteria. The researchers extracted those proteins, combined them with a reaction enhancer, and put it in an exploder which created the artificial steak. The "meat" is 63% proteins, 25% carbohydrates, 3% lipids, and 9% minerals. The researchers apply red food coloring and enhance the flavor with soy protein. Initial tests have people saying it even tastes like beef.
Question: How does this differ from a Big Mac?http://www.digitaltrends.com/international/japanese-scientists-creates-meat-out-of-feces/
