I know bananas are beneficial, with lots of potassium, vitamin B6, and are a good energy booster which also aid bowel movement. But seriously, public sex for these benefits? I’ll rather have constipation for a month.

The umbrella that protects against rain and muggers

Makers Real Self-Defense say their brolly is as strong as a steel pipe despite weighing only 775g and is already proving a hit across the UK and Europe. They claim it is perfect for use as a self-defence weapon, particularly when combined with knowledge of martial arts training such as Kendo, a Japanese style of fencing.

Short people ordered to stand behind President Nicolas Sarkozy during speech

sarko

Twenty short people were ordered to stand behind French President Nicolas Sarkozy to make him look taller while delivering a televised speech.

Reason being?
“Mr Sarkozy, who is notoriously sensitive about his height, did not want a repeat of the fiasco in June when he was caught using a footstool when delivering a speech alongside Gordon Brown and President Barack Obama on one of Normandy’s D-Day beaches. Both the 5ft 11ins British Prime Minister and 6ft 2 ins US leader towered above Mr Sarkozy when they used the same podium, humiliating him in front of a worldwide audience.”

“I still get a rose by my bedside every day and I always get a kiss in the morning and before I go to bed at night. ”We have lived and worked together all our lives, so we know how important give and take is. We’ve had a happy 60 years together. I wouldn’t have changed a thing.” Her husband insisted his romantic gestures were unremarkable. ”Everyone should do it,” he said. “I love her to bits – I have done since the day we met.”
