Dog ban issued after puppy gets drunk

A British court has barred a man from having a dog for three years after his Labrador puppy was discovered drunk.
Matthew Cox had been drinking vodka and coke with his roommate on August 22 when he left his glass on the floor to go for a smoke.
He returned to find that his six-month-old dog, Max, had swallowed the booze.
But he left the animal at home, and prosecutor Maria Moore told Nottingham Magistrate's Court in central England that the puppy was later spotted staggering and falling over near Cox's home.
Police were called and took the dog to an emergency vet, where it was put on a drip to flush the alcohol out of its system.
Magistrate J A Smith called the incident "downright stupid".
The puppy has since been given a new home.

This begs the question; How on earth does a puppy develop the taste for an alcoholic beverage?

Mind you, having asked that, I have noticed over the years, some of my mates have had dogs which have had a tendency to consume all manner of matter (organic or not), at quite an express speed.

Creepy Cricket Fans

Cricket is traditionally a gentleman's sport. However, these 2011 World Cup fans caught on camera at two different matches, appear to have come across as rather unusual gentleman.

The Sri Lankan supporter, firstly pictured, wearing some weird voodoo-type face mask, was filmed in the crowd, poking his tongue towards a (thankfully)fake baby.

The second picture is of a fan who attended the Bangladesh vs West Indies match, who walked into camera view, and then just stood there, staring coldy straight at the camera, sporadically twitching his face and not smiling at all. He looked so scary. The commentators said the Bangladeshi fans were smiling despite their team losing the match. He certainly wasn't. He would be a good casting option for another movie of The Omen, after all, he looks convincingly evil.

Here's a couple of links to the respective video footage.
