Man can't stop laughing after hip surgery




A Dutch man who underwent hip surgery two years ago has appeared in a TV interview claiming he has not been able to stop laughing ever since.

According to Huug Bosse's wife, her husband now spends his days laughing at everyone and everything and it all started when he had a hip replaced under anaesthesia in 2010.

'It appears that due to the operation, due to the anaesthesia, he was laughing more,' Mr Bosse's wife told the Dutch TV programme Man Bijt Hond as he sat roaring with laughter next to her.


While Mr Bosse did laugh before, his personality had significantly altered since the operation and he now laughed almost all the time, she claimed.

'Sometimes it starts to get really annoying all that laughing the whole day,' she said.

'When you are having a discussion and all he does is laughing, then it gets annoying.'

How Facebook could cost you your job!



Next time you start to upload pictures of nights out on to Facebook, or moan about your day on Twitter, bear in mind that you could be risking your career.

One in five bosses have rejected an applicant because of their profiles on social networking sites, according to a UK company's report on the technology industry.

Jobseekers are being warned to be far more vigilant over what they reveal online, as it could cost them that coveted role.

Even job-hunters who have passed any online screening to land their dream role should not relax.

Increasing numbers of workers have been sacked for careless social media posts - so however strong your privacy settings, take note of these cautionary tales:

The moment GIRL, 3, was THROWN from a moving U.S. FUNFAIR RIDE



- Child sustained concussion and bruising after falling from the contraption

- Rodeo organisers first claimed she tried to climb out of the ride's car

- However footage shows she slipped under at least one safety restraint


A shocking video has emerged showing the moment a three-year-old girl was hurled from a fairground ride after slipping under the restraining bar.

The child is shown with her feet in the air seconds before flying off the Techno Jump carnival ride at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo in Texas, the footage has revealed.

It appears that the little girl slipped under at least one safety restraint on the ride, raising questions over how she came to fall off it.

The child suffered concussion and bruising to her face and head after she was thrown between from the moving contraption between six and eight feet above the ground.

GIANT MANTA raised from the depths off Africa by ship's anchor




There are few details, but images posted this week to a Nairaland website forum starkly illustrate a story about a giant manta being hauled aboard an oil-rig servicing ship after becoming entangled in its anchor line in the South Atlantic. The unusual catch off Nigeria's Bonny Island involves one of the largest and most docile marine species.

Giant mantas, which are found in temperate regions around the planet, can measure nearly 30 feet across and weigh more than a ton. A brief description of the catch, from a forum contributor named Pharrod, is posted between the accompanying images, and it should be noted that plankton-eating giant mantas do not possess stinging spines, contrary to what's stated in the description.

(Game Review) Max Payne 3



Max Payne, the titular main character, has had a hard life since we left him eight years before. He has drifted along on pills and booze, and runs into an old friend from the force, Raul Passos, who invites him to come do private security in Sao Paulo, Brazil. As New York is no longer hospitable to him, Max agrees, and finds himself working private security for wealthy Rodrigo Branco, his beautiful wife, and two younger brothers.

We were dropped into the chapter where Rodrigo’s wife has just been kidnapped with a ransom of $3 million. The brothers were debating how to handle the situation in a cut scene. For fans of the original, the graphic novel-style cutscenes have been updated. They are fully rendered movies, but still retain the graphic novel flavor with kinetic text to emphasize important phrases and occasional comic-styled panels breaking up the action. The game also flirts with splashes of color that make the whole world a little more surreal, again eliciting a feeling of illustration.

’Cinematic’ is often used to describe games with great cutscenes, but our approach applies to the entire game,” a Rockstar rep said.
