Death Cap Mushroom Is Called That For A Reason!
 |
| Looks Pure Evil Full Stop! |
2 people in Australia are now dead thanks to this deadly fungi!
Mistaking this mushroom for the edible Paddy Straw mushroom 4 people indulged on the highly poisonous Death Cap leaving 2 dead and one still seriously ill in hospital!
Unfortunately a New Years Eve meal has now materialised into a nightmare, at first if ingested victims get bad vomiting, but after a few days the symptoms turn into something much worse as the toxins within this fungi cause mega complications with the liver! No part of this mushroom is edible whatsoever!
Just goes to show you never know what's lurking out there, one thing is for sure though, if I fancy mushrooms with my fry up then I'm going to make sure I buy them from my local store and not risk chancing what I might find in the backyard!

Guys Don't Adjust Your TV Sets, You'll See The Fireworks Just Fine!
Ok so shoot me for not pulling out the most scandalous or shocking news story of the day but this one I read earlier on Sky News was worth a mention.
Pyrotechnics are pretty amazing really, there's a great deal of work and science that goes into the expensive displays that the vast majority of us love to watch.
To us it's a great thing to watch, but to the people who build and create them, it goes alot further than just worrying about if the crowd can see ok!
Countries around the world are beginning to realise the potential in having a great fireworks display on New Years Eve and the extra revenue it can pull in worldwide, I guess it's a bit like putting yourself on the map with thanks to the news companies that document the awesome displays.
So more concentration is being applied to ensure that tv audiences get just as good a show on their HD sets as the crowds are getting who are actually there in person!
So never fear, if you can't get to one of the major capitals of the world to see in the New Year with a bang then just turn your news channel on, make sure you have an HDMI socket and a couple of beers and rest assured that your gonna be watching so top notch fireworks this new years eve!!!
