The girl from Tucson, Arizona got the Sport Pilot certificate lately and became the first pilot licensed to fly using only her feet.TUCSON -- Jessica Cox of Tucson was born without arms, but that has only stopped her from doing one thing: using the word "can't."Her latest flight into the seemingly impossible is becoming the first pilot licensed to fly using only her feet.With one foot manning the controls and the other delicately guiding the steering column, Cox, 25, soared to achieve a Sport Pilot certificate. Her certificate qualifies her to fly a light-sport aircraft to altitudes of 10,000 feet."She's a good pilot. She's rock solid," said Parrish Traweek, 42, the flying instructor at San Manuel's Ray Blair Airport.He runs PC Aircraft Maintenance and Flight Services and has trained many pilots, some of whom didn't come close to Cox's abilities."When she came up here driving a car," Tr...

2008-09-04 16:04:00
Hundreds of women - and a few men - jostle for line honors in the stiletto sprint eventWith three-inch high-heel shoes on feet, 265 ladies tore up an 80-meter race track at Sydney 's Circular Quay on Tuesday to break the world record for the most people running in a "stiletto sprint". Four hundred meter hurdler Brittney McGlone, 18, was first across the line, winning the 5,000 Aus dollar (4,250 U.S. dollars) award. She was closely followed by dozens of leggy blondes and brunettes in green shorts, some of whom came off second best with scratches and scrapes from a few spills, according to a report of Australian Associated Press. Former Australian sprinter Melinda Gainsford-Taylor had the job of inspecting the athletes and ensuring they were wearing three-inch heals and had the customary smooth legs. An event spokeswoman said the current world record topped the previous world record of 150 ladies. "It looks like Australia has smashed the current world record and should now hold the ti...

ALEXANDRIA, Va. -- Ready for the latest in spa pampering? Prepare to dunk your tootsies in a tank of water and let tiny carp nibble away.Fish pedicures are creating something of a splash in the D.C. area, where a northern Virginia spa has been offering them for the past four months. John Ho, who runs the Yvonne Hair and Nails salon with his wife, Yvonne Le, said 5,000 people have taken the plunge so far.This is a good treatment for everyone who likes to have nice feet," Ho said.He said he wanted to come up with something unique while finding a replacement for pedicures that use razors to scrape off dead skin. The razors have fallen out of favor with state regulators because of concerns about whether they're sanitary.Ho was skeptical at first about the fish, which are called garra rufa but typically known as doctor fish. They were first used in Turkey and have become popular in some Asian countries.But Ho doubted they would thrive in the warm water needed for a comfortable footbath....

World Largest Clam
2008-03-01 16:16:00
The geoduck or gooyduck is the largest species of clams on the face of the earth. The clam itself is 15 to 20 cm long, which is pretty big but the really impressive part is its long siphon that often reaches one meter in length. it weighs between 0.5 and 1.5 kilograms, but there have been stories about 7.5 kg heavy gooyducks.The incredible aspect of the gooeyduck isn?t only limited to its size, but also to its lifespan. It has a life expectancy of 146 years, which makes it one of the longest-living organisms in the animal reign.As repulsive as they look (personal opinion) geoducks are a delicacy in China and Japa, where they are often eaten raw, sashimi style.

6 Bad Habits That May Be Good For You
2008-02-26 11:39:00
1 Picking your teeth in publicActually, this is extremely useful for your dental health. Helps to remove the food that may cause tooth decay if it stayed in or between your teeth.2 Nose pickingDoesn't have particular health benefits, besides probably removing some snot containing bacteria, but is very pleasant and relaxing.3 Mouth washing during mealWashing your mouth with your drink is one of the healthiest bad habits as it helps to wash out the food remains. It may be especially beneficial if you do it with green tea. Green tea kills the bacteria that cause dental plaques and bad breath and increases the acid resistance of tooth enamel.4 Head scratchingFor many people this is a "thought promotion process" habit. Also, as a possible alternative to scalp massage, it stimulates the scalp blood circulation, which is beneficial for hair follicles. Recent research in the Journal of Investigative Dermatology found that, although scratching an itch feels like a pretty primal activity, th...

scientists develop instructions to make a magic carpet
2007-12-20 23:11:00
Perfectly timed for pantomime season, a team of scientists has come up with instructions for how to make a flying carpet.The magical device may owe more to Walt Disney than to The Arabian Nights , but it is not pure fantasy, according to Lakshminarayanan Mahadevan of Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and his co-workers.The researchers have studied the aerodynamics of a flexible, rippling sheet moving through a fluid, and find that it should be possible to make one that will stay aloft in air.No such carpet is going to ferry people around, though.The researchers say that to stay afloat in air, a sheet measuring about 10 centimetres long and 0.1 millimetres thick would need to vibrate at about 10 hertz with an amplitude of about 0.25 millimetres.Making a heavier carpet "fly" is not forbidden by the laws of physics.But the researchers say that their "computations and scaling laws suggest it will remain in the magical, mystical and virtual realm", as the engine driving the...
