Drunk woman bites schoolteacher!

Women are often funnier after drunk. While many of them act silly under the influence, some of them go violent at the drop of a hat.  For 32 year old Kelly Kociela, a mother, could not control her anger when she was stop from entering into a school and she did the worst. She bit a teacher hard!

According to the Daily Mail, Kociela bit a teacher after turning up drunk at her children's school has been banned from entering the playground.

She had drunk lager and rum before arriving at Filton Avenue Junior and Infant School in Horfield, Bristol ‘distressed and slurring,’ reports the Daily Mail.

Kociela was held back by teachers as she tried to push her way into a school building to reach her children at an after-school club. When teacher Matthew Cox tried to block her path, she bit him on the arm.

Cox had to go to hospital and get precautionary tetanus and hepatitis B injections done.

Kociela was arrested and taken to Southmead police station where she told officers that she had drunk three or four pints of Stella and four rum and cokes before she argued with her partner and decided to collect her children.

She reportedly denied having any memory of being at the school and biting Cox.

Magistrates handed Kociela a two-year community order and she was ordered to pay £100 compensation to Cox, £85 costs and a £60 victim surcharge.

Kociela may only go to the school if invited but can collect her children from the school gates.

Show boobs, give boost!

Girl students in Kansas seem to have gone crazy en masse. Female students at schools across the country are showing off their cleavage their school pride, perhaps hoping that their athletic teams will win.

According to a report in Huffington Post, a University of Kansas Jayhawks fan identified as Tiffany took a shot of her breasts covered by her Jayhawks shirt and added #kuboobs to her tweet hoping to "give a little boost" to a struggling team.

KUboobs.com writes:

“On a Saturday afternoon in a sports cathedral known as Allen Fieldhouse our beloved Kansas Jayhawks were facing certain defeat from the evil Missouri Tigers in a final battle for supremacy. Thousands of Jayhawk faithful watched helplessly as the border ruffians from Missouri sought to pillage and disgrace our beautiful cathedral. Far above the Golden Valley glorious to view, one woman had enough. She channeled the power inherent in all true Jayhawk fans to resurrect the Jayhawks from a 19-point deficit to a stunning one-point victory! That power was KU Boobs.”

The report says that the online phenomenon swept across Jayhawk nation "like a Kansas gale and carried the Jayhawks to the Final Four in New Orleans." Interestingly, the @KUBoobs Twitter account has more than 19,000 followers. More than 11,528 people like KU Boobs on Facebook and 5,540 people are talking about it on the site (and still counting).

A Nashville-based author with over 66,000 Twitter followers even claimed @kuboobs as "genius.”

A probably creepy and entirely inappropriate-for-the-office Twitter search yielded over 30 similar @boobs accounts at schools across the country. Even the "border ruffians" at Mizzou created an account. It's attracted over 6,000 followers, says the report.

Teenage girl hits schoolboy hard

In a bizarre incident, a 14-year-old girl was found hitting a boy repeatedly and showering him with abuses in a YouTube video that has been removed by now for violating its terms and conditions.

The video shows a young schoolgirl repeatedly punching a male student and subjecting him to a stream of foul-mouthed abuses. According to the Daily Mail, the case is being investigated by police and education chiefs.

The footage shows the petite girl jeering at the boy to shouts of encouragement from a friend filming the encounter in Scotland. She is then seen hitting the schoolboy in the head six times in a vicious attack.

The report says that the incident is understood to involve two pupils from Catholic comprehensive St Aidan's High School in Wishaw.

In the video, which lasts almost two minutes, the girl attempts to provoke the school boy, who refuses to retaliate.

She can be heard to say: 'He can't even speak or anything', to which the victim responds by insisting: 'I don't hit lassies.'

After an inaudible exchange between the schoolgirl and the boy she is then heard to shout: 'You don't be f****** cheeky to me right?', before pushing him and calling him more abusive names.

She then punches the boy in the face five times prompting gasps from the person filming.

The girl is seen attempting to goad the schoolboy into retaliating, shouting: 'Go on, hit me!'

But the victim, who keeps his arms by his side throughout the encounter, repeats: 'I don't hit lassies, right.'

The bully feigns landing another blow on the schoolboy, before actually hitting him once more and shouting more abuse.

Sexual abuse at workplace

According to a recent survey, 17 percent of Indian working women still face sexual harassment at workplace

Despite all tall talks of women emerging as an equally powerful workforce as men in our country, the grim fact remains that they are often discriminated and harassed at workplaces. A new survey conducted in major cities in the country by Oxfam India and the Social and Rural Research Institute reveals that as many as 17 percent of working women in India have experienced sexual harassment at their workplace.

As per the survey, about 17 percent of working women in India feel that they have experienced acts of sexual harassment at workplace, indicating a high incidence of sexual harassment among working women from both the organised and unorganised sectors. However, majority of women said they had faced incidents that were non-physical.

The survey says that 66 of the 400 respondents faced a cumulative of 121 incidents of sexual harassment. A total of 102 out of 121 incidents were reported to be non-physical, whereas the remaining 19 incidents were physical in nature.

While 87 percent of the general population and 93 percent of working women respondents reported awareness of sexual harassment of women at work place, a majority of the victims did not resort to any formal action against the perpetrator.

According to the report, maximum number of sexual harassment cases was reported among labourers (29 percent), domestic helps (23 percent) and small-scale manufacturing units (16 percent).

A report in a national daily quoted Oxfam India CEO Nisha Agrawal as saying: “Violence against women is a human rights violation, whether it is domestic violence within homes or sexual harassment at the workplace. We believe in the right of every woman to a violence free workplace."

Women working in the unorganised sectors are more vulnerable to sexual harassment due to lack of awareness of legislation. Economic problems often add to the misery at workplace.  The report sites some of the reasons for not taking any such action were "fear of losing job", "absence of any complaints mechanism at the workplace", "fear of getting stigmatized", and "not aware of redressal mechanism".

Happy and ‘gay ’

India is fast turning into a hot spot for gay travellers as it offers safety and a discrimination-free trip to the LGBT community

The world is abuzz with Uganda’s ‘Kill the Gay’ Bill. World leaders including Barack Hussein Obama, Hillary Clinton and David Cameroon are knitting their brows in anger and the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community is up the creek about their entity and safety.

But the sexual minority across the world has reasons to cheer. India offers exciting tourist destination for the LGBT community members to have a hassle-free frolic. India is fast emerging as the ultimate ‘pink’ tourist destination, thanks to Indian gay-tour operators.

It may be remembered that since the high court decriminalized homosexuality in 2009, India has been getting more popular among gay travellers. According to gay travel operates, LGBT tourists want the same things as any traveller: to feel safe and welcome. Feeling welcome is not only a reference to local hospitality, but also to larger issues of governmental rights, they say.

Pink tourism agents are making a killing by catering exclusively to the LGBT community. They make gay travellers feel welcome in an unknown land and also bridge the gap between them and the locals.

Their tour packages often include gay nightlife or interactions with local gay business people. The biggest difference between normal and gay-friendly tour operators is; the latter can anticipate the requirements of gay travellers better, compared to the former.

The prime concerns of the travellers are safety and a discrimination-free trip, which the operators ensure through extensive networking. Gay-friendly tour operators say that they keep an eye on clients' movements, as they have offices all across the country and make sure all necessary information about what to wear and where to go is provided to the clients.

Some gay-friendly operators like Pink Escapes sends out advisories to their clients about the Indian scenario and also how to manage interactions with new acquaintances. They also use the services of gay or gay-friendly establishments to secure a discrimination- free trip.

The pink tourists can, during their trip to India, get a flavour of the country through multifaceted experiences tailored to meet their cultural curiosities and adventurous escapades, apart from the normal sightseeing.

They can enjoy puppet shows, music and dance based on folklore in a natural setting, cooking from scratch - from tours of spice and vegetable markets to the table - attend a dream Indian wedding ceremony or get an insight into being a gay royal, among other delights. According to experts, the lure of India as a tourist destination lies not only in its gay friendly environment but also as a golden chance to explore.

And they are not just limiting their tours to big metros, they throng smaller cities like Udaipur, Jaipur, Jaisalmer, Khajuraho, Varanasi and locations like back waters of Kerala, Marari Beach and foothills of Himalayas.

And if you didn’t know, Udaipur has a number of gay friendly restaurants and cafes, Jaipur has gay-friendly neighbourhoods and people, whereas down south, Kerala provides good opportunities for travellers looking for a therapeutic getaway.

Birthday guest stabbed for eating burger!

                                                              (Ann Carr)

Who cares if it is someone’s birthday and you are one of the invitees? If you try to eat anything else other than what you are ordered, beware, you may be stabbed with a kitchen knife!

That is what exactly happened to an unsuspecting guest at the birthday party of Ann Carr, who turned 37 recently.

The guest was stabbed with a kitchen knife for eating Carr’s takeaway burger and chips after a night out to celebrate her birthday. According to Daily Mail, Ann Carr had bought the food as she made her way back to her home in Allenton, Derby, with a group of people at the end of the night.

Carr had gone into her bedroom to remove her make-up, and the group continued the celebrations back at the house. Everything was fine until Carr was back and joined the guests, but suddenly the atmosphere soured when she realised one of her guests had eaten 'a lot' of her chicken burger and chips.

Unable to control her anger, Carr pushed the remnants of the food into the face of one onlooker and then fetched a 'large kitchen knife and lunged' at the man who had eaten the burger, reports the Daily Mail.

The attack damaged muscles around the man's spine and left him with a 3cm wound. The victim has had trouble walking and suffered nightmares in the wake of the incident, it was reported.

It is said that Carr who has battled with alcoholism, had taken drugs on the night of her birthday.

The court was told she had a previous conviction for assault dating back to in 1996. Carr’s mother died when she was a teenager and she had also lost her father and a brother.  As a result, she consumed a great deal of alcohol to deal with these emotional problems and she became an alcoholic, it was reported.

And now a golden car!

Even as the Pune man who flaunted his all pure gold shirt, much to the amusement of many, remains in news headlines, a glittering car at an exhibition has become cynosure of all eyes. In what can be termed as highly spectacular, the white Chevrolet UVA has been decked in two kilograms of gold, 30 kilograms of silver and around 20,000 Swarovski crystals!

The wonder car is on display at the gems and jewellery exhibition in the Gujarat Global Trade show, as a clear symbol of the tremendous economic growth the state has achieved.  

According to media reports, arguably India's most expensive car has an estimated base price of Rs 2 crore.  Mumbai-based sculptor Rajesh Bajaj, who designed it in collaboration with Rajkot's Bhindi Jewellers is all smiles as congratulations are pouring in.

The car was the work of 50 craftsmen, who wanted to pay tribute to the recent development in the state of Gujarat, say reports.

Rajendra Jain of Swarovski Gems India said that Rajesh Bajaj came up with the idea which interested him and in turn got in touch with Bhindi Jewellers to get it done.

"This is our tribute to Vibrant Gujarat and the development brought about by chief minister Narendra Modi," Jain was quoted as saying.

It took around 20 days to complete the project. It will be put up for auction on February 13. The money generated from the auction will be deposited in the chief minister's relief fund after the manufacturers' basic expenses have been deducted, say the reports.
