Jumpers leave workers sleepless in Seattle
That's a joke, see. 'cause of the movie...

Panda-monium!
SICHUAN, China -- One zoo in southwest China has its hands full with 16 baby pandas.
The Sichuan Wolong Panda Protection and Breed Center is dealing with the results of a breeding boom -- 16 pandas have been born since July, 2006. The brood includes five sets of twins. The cubs are weighed and measured every five days.
The heaviest tips the scale at just over 24 pounds, while the lightest weighs about 11 pounds. The pandas are due to stop suckling by February, 2007 just about the time they'll start learning to walk. Once weaned, the panda cubs will attend panda kindergarten. In the meantime, more little ones are expected at the center since 38 giant pandas were artificially impregnated.

Starbucks Is Insane
"Starbucks is to open new coffee shops in London at the rate of one a fortnight for the next decade.
The firm has outlined a relentless expansion plan, and says it can foresee no limit to the number of branches in and around the capital.
Phil Broad, the firm's managing director for Britain and Ireland, said: “We don't think we’ve reached saturation point and we certainly don’t see London as finished yet.”

angry mob burns bullys house
In a fine example of traditional village justice, after seven years of tolerating a local bully's violent behaviour, locals finally snapped and a 400-strong mob burned his house down.
