Bronx Zoo Cobra Found Alive!

The missing Bronx Zoo cobra has been found.Zoo officials say the snake was found Thursday morning in the zoo's Reptile House, nearly a week after it went missing. The Egyptian cobra was found coiled in a dark corner of the reptile house and zoo director Jim Breheny says she is in good health.The zoo's Reptile House had closed last Friday after the snake disappeared and zoo workers couldn't find it.The snake was captured at about 9 a.m. Thursday.

Wood shavings that had been used as bedding for rats and mice were put out to lure the 3-ounce adolescent snake out of hiding, said Breheny, who explained that "snakes hunt by olfactory means.""It was merely the scent of the rodents that we hoped would bring her out," he said.Zoo workers also worked to reduce noise and dimmed the lights to make the environment more comforting, he said, adding that the key strategy was patience.

We had to give her a chance to feel secure and comfortable so she would come out and explore her environment," he said.He did not explain exactly how the staff captured the snake but said workers who deal with venomous snakes typically use special tongs and a tool called a snake hook.

Breheny said the zoo is investigating how the snake escaped and evaluating its protocols to make sure it doesn't happen again. Zoo officials hope to reopen the reptile house next week.Meanwhile, BronxZoosCobra on Twitter had stopped posting messages sometime Thursday."Oh, this isn't over," the person wrote in an e-mail to The Associated Press in response to a request for comment on the capture of the snake.

"They have only awakened the Bronx Zoo's Cobra nation."Breheny said the snake was "resting comfortably and secure" and was being evaluated to make sure she was in good condition.He said zoo workers put out wood chips that had been used as bedding for mice in order to lure the 3-ounce snake out of hiding.



"We were fairly confident that she would come out and she did," Breheny said.
Breheny said the zoo is evaluating its protocols to make sure the snake doesn't escape again. Zoo officials hope to reopen the reptile house next week.

"We don't have the resources to carry out all these operations," says a former ISI chief, Javed Ashraf Qazi.

"RAW has a budget 10 times that of the ISI's and it is more effective than the ISI." This mutual admiration may, of course, be nothing more than a sly way to lobby for a bigger budget. The scarier these agencies make the enemy appear, the more cash they can claim to need for their own skulduggery.

Their finances are kept secret, but estimates put the ISI's annual budget at $45 million and RAW's at $150 million.MS Dhoni is the uber-cool captain and, while he can be vocal while dealing with the press, he is almost invisible on the field. Silent nods of appreciation, a quiet word in the ear, calm instructions, a shrug of the shoulder is all you will get from him. And again, it's what this star-heavy team needs.

Someone who can be calm and remind them of the basics of the game.India have occasionally limped, at times choked, sometimes dazzled, before beating Australia to reach to the semi-finals. The progress card has the bowlers in the red, the batsmen guilty of not finishing the job, and the fielding has always been almost beyond redemption.

Their mode of progress should actually have freed them up in some ways. The batsmen must have realised that they can't try too hard to cover up for their bowlers' weakness, by trying to pile on too much, with the batting Powerplay pulling the rug from under their feet a few times.

The bowlers showed they are learning from the serial hiding by putting up a pretty disciplined effort against Australia. In some ways, the pressure must be off them, as not many would be surprised if they leak 300 runs.

Full Video : Britney Spears Steals Hearts At San Francisco Show

Britney Spears writhed and gyrated through a free concert in front of 5,000 screaming fans last night.But the Femme Fatale's concert was also filming the gig for Good Morning America which will be aired on Tuesday morning.Before Spears even hit the stage, five fabulous drag queens warmed up the crowd and declared their adoration for the femme fatale herself. Their sassy back-and-forth was followed by Cheer SF, a cheerleading act.



After the room was sufficiently warmed up, "GMA" hosts Sam Champion and Robin Roberts came onstage to introduce Spears.From a set that mirrored the one used in her Las Vegas show two nights ago, Spears kicked off with her lead single, "Hold It Against Me." She dazzled the crowd with an engaging performance, dancing around in a stunning silver bodysuit. After the song, she smiled, telling the crowd "It's beautiful" being in San Francisco to perform for them.

After a change of clothes into a body-hugging, black bodysuit, Spears got sexy for the will.i.am collabo "Big Fat Bass." As she shimmied to the thumping track, fans cheered along.

Spears even gave a shout-out to the local gay youths who were in attendance from the Larkin Street homeless shelter and the LYRIC center for LGBT youth. "They're in the front row; thanks for coming," she said.

"Till the World Ends," to cap off the performance. After her last song, an excited-looking Britney gazed at her fans and told them she was looking forward to releasing her new album: "I love music. It's my world, it's my everything."

Before she left the stage, Brit was presented with a certificate from the city, and she thanked them exuberantly for the super reception.

Sexy Laura Vikmanis 42 Year NFL's Oldest Cheerleader Watch It

NFL's Oldest Cheerleader, Laura Vikmanis, cheerleader for the Cincinnati Ben-gals.At 42 years old, Laura Vikmanis is the NFL's oldest cheerleader. A registered dietician, trainer and mom of teenagers who set her mind to making the squad and joined the Cincinnati Bengals' Ben-Gals squad in 2009, Vikmanis serves as a guide for her younger cheerleading teammates. If it sounds like a Hollywood film, well, it soon will be.

We've already seen inspirational true stories about aspiring football players overcoming the odds to play for their favorite team in films like Rudy and Invincible. So it only seems logical that the next move is to tell the story of an NFL cheerleader struggling to make the squad.


The Hollywood Reporter writes:

Vikmanis, a mother with two teenage daughters, was shaken after her husband left her for a younger woman. At a Cincinnati Bengals game, her sister suggested she find something to make her happy, and Vikmanis, who had been a dancer, looked to the field and said being a cheerleader looked like fun.



At age 39, she tried out for the Ben-Gals squad but failed. Vikmanis, however, spent a year improving her fitness and working on routines and returned to tryouts the following year. She made the squad, thus serving as an inspiration to her daughters and as a mother figure to the cheerleaders, many of them 20 years her junior.

I think the film could work if done right. Though I could also see it being overly cheesy or cutesy too if done poorly.What do you think? Do you want to see a film about a struggling 42-year-old cheerleader? Or, perhaps the bigger question is: who do you want to see play Vikmanis?

Night 2: Down the Mountain

So last night I was back at the Bloor Cinema with my butt parked in one of their oh so comfy seats.  It was Day 2 of the showing of the Banff Mountain Film Festival.  It was a good mix of movies.  It was kind of more serious especially after the feature movie Tibet: Murder in the Snow, which can't be blamed for false advertising.  Anyway after the intermission and another night of being shut out of the raffle prizes a movie about fly fishing started.  When it was done it was too bad.  It was awesome!  Everyone in the theatre was laughing.  Great Movie!!!  Did I mention it was about fly fishing?  Here's the trailer

A surprise treat for fans in Las Vegas at the Rain nightclub inside the Palms Casino and Resort, it was a high energy performance for those at the right place who paid nothing for an amazing performance.

A moment with Britney Spears and a look at her new album, Femme Fatale was worth the risk of waiting. The worst that could happen is that there wasn’t a concert, but this was a taping for MTV, so there wasn’t any doubt there would be some type of show on stage.Take a look at ‘Till the World Ends’ performed on Friday night in the video clip. Britney Spears album, Femme Fatale, hits shelves on Tuesday.

Jessi Slaughter's Dad (Gene Leonhardt) Arrested : Abused & Punched Her Daughter's Mouth

Gene Leonhardt, dad of internet meme sensation Jessi Slaughter, has been arrested for smacking his daughter in the mouth. The 11-year-old girl’s dad ranted about her online treatment in a video, spouting off about “cyberpolice,” threatening that the interactions had been “backtraced,” and most famously warning online bullies that “consequences would never be the same.” Considering the stress the family had been through, it wasn’t too surprising the dad flew off the handle a bit. But he’s been arrested in Florida for allegedly smacking his daughter in the face, drawing blood.





According to a police report, Jessi was arguing with her father when he "punched her, causing her to have a bloody and swollen lip." When police officer arrived, he saw "blood on the victim's mouth and chin area." Leonhardt was "slightly intoxicated," too.

Leonhardt, who police say seemed a bit intoxicated, claims he only hit his daughter after she punched him first and that the blood on her face was “theatrical blood,” whatever that means.This certainly isn’t the first time he’s been caught hitting his daughter. This time, he was busted for it, however.Leonhardt pleaded not guilty to charges of child abuse and was released on $5,000 bond.

Top News : Dancers reveal ‘Black Swan’ The Real Story

Natalie Portman's dancing double for "Black Swan," Sarah Lane, told "Entertainment Weekly" that the public has been mislead about Portman's dancing in the film. "Of the full body shots, I would say 5 percent are Natalie... I mean, from a professional dancer's standpoint, she doesn't look like a professional ballet dancer at all and she can't dance in pointe shoes. And she can't move her body; she's very stiff."

Portman has said in interviews that she used a body double for scenes in the film, and her fiancé and "Black Swan" choreographer Benjamin Millepied told the L.A.
