Ok, so this one made me laugh out loud...

(warning: links are PG-rated!)

Article here: "A young Greek woman, Marina Fanouraki, has become an overnight national hero after setting fire to the genitals of Stuart Feltham, a 20-year-old Briton..."

Long story short: he was being an idiot and groping her in a bar, she persuaded him to stop by setting fire to his bits. Win. And I love that they publish his photo, so everyone knows who he is now - it'll take a while to live that one down. And in the same week as this also hit the news (warning, scary scary photos of the "women" responsible in that story - they all look like dudes) - seems a good week for guys to be being very very careful about how they're behaving around potentially vengeful women...

Oh, and also: what are the England cricket team thinking having Stuart Broad batting at 7? Although, having said that, his first-class batting average is about the same as Graham Manou's... unfortunately, I don't know that he'll play all that many matches at international level, he looks a much better wicketkeeper than Haddin, but just can't cut it as a batsman, and keepers have to be able to bat these days. And also unfortunately, the emphasis on actually being able to keep wickets properly seems to be falling off, even at Test level - which explains why Dilshan ended up being picked as a keeper for Sri Lanka. Fortunately Haddin doesn't seem to drop too many actual catches (which Gilly used to occasionally do), but there do seem to be more than the usual quota going screaming down to the fence for byes...
