it's my pet dog
2007-08-04 12:24:00
When a picture emerged of a hulking beast stalking the moors, one woman wasn't chilled by rumours of its gaping jaws, glowing eyes and blood-curdling howls. That's because Lucinda Reid recognised the "Demon of Dartmoor" as ... her pet dog. The two-year-old Newfoundland - called Troy - weighs in at a whopping 12 stones. But, far from being ferocious, he's as gentle as a lamb. Scroll down for more   The 'Beast' of Dartmoor is just a harmless hound called Troy, its owner claims Scary: the mysterious photoMiss Reid lives close to the spot where the photo was taken and often takes Troy for a walk there. "I was in stitches when I read that someone thought Troy was the beast of Dartmoor," she said yesterday. "I spotted that it was him right away - you can tell by the shape and the way he is walking.

Buy your own flying saucer
2007-08-04 12:21:00
A flying saucer which glides up to 10 metres off the ground and carries two people could be yours for £65,000. The saucer is powered by eight engines and can reach speeds of over 50mph as it moves gracefully through the air. The bizarre flying pod, which is the size of a small car, is even able to land on skyscrapers - should the need arise. Amazing: The flying saucer which can travel at speeds of up to 50 mphIt can take off and land vertically, like a helicopter, but it is almost noise-free and has been described by passengers as being "like a magic carpet ride." US company Moller International has begun manufacturing the flying saucer and says it has completed more than 200 successful test flights. The firm is so confident in its flying ability that it says it welcomes "potential military and/or para-military applications" and also thinks the saucer could be used for border patrol. Company founder Dr Paul Moller calls the craft "the ultimate off-roa...

This month, it will be ten years since the crash that killed Princess Diana . Since then, millions of words have been written about that fatal accident.  Yet one haunting fact remains.

Bunker babes change the face of golf at St Andrew'sThe words 'lady golfer' tend to conjure up images of middle-aged matrons in tweed and sensible shoes.

Former communist leader Mikhail Gorbachev cashes in as the new face of Louis Vuitton He was once one of the world's most powerful men, going head-to-head with Ronald Reagan and the decadent West. Now, he's advertising luggage (although to be fair, it is upmarket luggage). Mikhail Gorbachev , the last leader of the Soviet Union, is appearing in an advert for Louis Vuitton travel bags. Mikhail Gorbachev is one of the stars of the new ad campaignIt might seem an odd choice for a Nobel Peace Prize winner who has a nice pension, bodyguardsand the right to live rent-free in a state residence of his choice. But this, it seems, is a special case. Or suitcase. Mr Gorbachev, 76, is giving all the proceeds of his modelling job to former U.S. vice president Al Gore's climate change campaign.

The Garden

The Leylandi-eyes on guard in my gardenGreen-fingered Michael Geiger's stunning hedge certainly gives a new meaning to Neighbourhood Watch. With six faces peering out of the 12ft Leylandii in his front garden, it's not surprising that passers-by might get the feeling they are not alone. Mr Geiger used gardening clippers and string to create the characters, which are styled on the faces of the Moai statues on Easter Island in the South Pacific. Mr Geiger with his leylandiiThe retired banker, who lives in Billericay, Essex, with his wife Betty, says they are the talk of the town. He said: "I am amazed at the attention the faces get. It makes me laugh at how they get people talking. They weren't difficult to do. Once you have the eyes, the nose is quite simple and all I had to do was cut deep into its base. "But I have to trim them once a month and cut the top of the hedge twice a year." Mr Geiger, 78, added: "I don't think I'll ever get rid of them. People se...

The Everest Spirit
2007-08-02 11:32:00
The Epic of Mount Everest by Sir Francis Younghusband takes a condensed look back at the accounts of the 1921, 1922 and 1924 British Everest expeditions that pioneered a path to the mountain and almost scaled it. Taking these original chronicles, written by the expedition team members as primary sources, Younghusband weaves a tale of heroic endeavour and tragic loss, and especially redolent of the time it was written in. A real blast from the past.If a shortened and summarised execution of all three classic expeditions is what you are looking for then this is it. It’s all there in the book. How the gateway into the lap of Everest was reached through the high plateaus of Tibet, the record heights achieved by the second expedition team, the first use of oxygen, the first casualties on the slopes of the mountain, how the record height of 28,100 feet was reached by Norton in the third expedition and the compelling story of Mallory and Irvine’s disappearance on their final at...

Hollywood actors Nicholas Cage and Leonardo DiCaprio took centre stage at a Beverley Hills auction house. But the starring role went to the 67 million-year-old dinosaur skull of a tyrannosaurus bataar. The pair were battling it out in the bidding at IM Chait auctioneers before Cage walked off with the lot for $276,000 (£135,000) to add to his fossil collection. The skull of a tyrannosaurus bataar went under the hammer for $276,000"Dinosaur bones and all sorts of fossily are increasingly hot right now. Hollywood heavy-hitters and the mega-rich types from the Middle East love this stuff," said Josh Chait, operations director the auction house. "When you already have a Warhol or a Monet on the wall, you tend to want a change from traditional artwork and people are turning to natural history for that," he told the Sunday Telegraph.   Nicholas Cage outbid Leonardo DiCaprio (below) for the dinosaur's headHis firm is putting up a mosasaurus in a forthc...

Catherine Zeta-Jones gets her cleavage back

Her shoulders are back and her dress is particularly plunging. Perhaps that is why Catherine Zeta -Jones is looking a little more curvaceous in the cleavage department these days. Then again, she is all Hollywood. So there is always the possibility she has had a little help to sculpt such a remarkable figure. Whatever the reason, Miss Zeta-Jones appeared very pleased indeed with her new look when arriving to be interviewed on the Late Show with David Letterman in New York. The change in the 37-year-old actress's figure is even more apparent when looking back at her public appearances over the years. In 1999, for example, when promoting her movie Entrapment, she had a much rangier frame. Taking the plunge: Catherine shows off her knock-out curves in New YorkThe fact that she has had two children could also be a factor in her fuller figure.
