Mali family dines on camel gifted to French President.
 
Officials in Mali will send French President Francois Hollande a replacement camel after the first, given to him as a gift for repelling rebels, was eaten.  Hollande had left the first camel with a family in Timbuktu for safekeeping after it was presented to him by locals in February.  At the time of the ceremony, he had joked about using the camel to get around traffic-jams in Paris.
 
"We are ashamed of what happened to the camel.  It was a present that did not deserve this fate," said an official in northern Mali.  "As soon as we heard of this, we quickly replaced it with a bigger and better-looking camel"

Man runs Up 91K phone bill after calling sex line…
 
A man has run up a Pound sterling 91,000 (abt Rs.9 lakhs) after calling a sex hotline, creating an all-new record of sorts.  Kevin W., 45, racked up this huge bill after dialling the premium rate number, but then hit out at the phone company for 'allowing' him to generate such a huge debt, saying it has left him feeling "down, depressed, desperate and anxious".  He was quoted by a newspaper as saying, "The provider needs shutting down because they are ripping people off left, right and centre."
 
(Me: No, by no means an isolated case.  Many men spent mini fortunes for the benefit of hearing some lady (most probably a v.senior person, you would never know…) talk sex.  Some months ago, a guy from interior Maharashtra got a cell phone connection using her aunt's documents for address proof and ran up a bill of something like 15 lakhs to the shock of the lady…)
 
Q: Do you know why is that maths teachers are so useless at gardening?
A: Simple!  Everything that they plant grows square roots.

Belief in miracle money multiplier leaves Dadar doctor poorer by Rs.25 lakhs!
 
Mumbai: A doctor was made to believe that magic chemicals could quadruple money in instant  This would have been news in itself had it not been for the fact that the prospect of 300% returns made her submit Rs.25 lakhs for this novel instrument of investment and lose it.  Though the police have caught the 'alchemists' who promised Dr. U. Mehta of Dadar the moon, the money is yet to be recovered.
