Woman wins lottery - for fourth time
A Las Vegas woman has continued an amazing run of luck after pocketing a fourth multi-million dollar payout from a lottery scratch card.
Joan Ginther's €7.9m win from a €45 scratchcard was the fourth time she has won a seven-figure sum through playing lottery.
The 63-year-old's win has had US news networks calling her the world's luckiest ever lottery player.
ABC News said Ms Ginther's first win came in 1993 when she won €4.2m. She won a further €1.5m in 2006, then €2.5m in 2008.
Incredibly, three of the tickets were bought from the same small shop in the town of Bishop, Texas.
Friends said Ms Ginther would return to her home town to visit her father and would drop in at the local shop to buy a scratch card.
Store manager Bob Solis said they sell 1,000 lottery tickets a day, adding: "This is a very lucky store."

Scuba Dog!!!

Scuba diving dachshund
A Russian man has made the headlines - by teaching his dog to scuba dive in a specially built wetsuit.
Sergei Gorbunov, a professional diver in Vladivostok, had a diving suit complete with helmet made for his pet dachshund Boniface.
In a recent demonstration, Boniface barked eagerly as Mr Gorbunov readied the equipment and fitted the suit on him.
Once underwater, he seemed to have a different outlook, emitting some high-pitched whines.
But Mr Gobunov insisted: "Underwater, I don't think he experiences any stress."

Tone down the Vuvuzela noise on your TV
[for TV with a good sound equaliser] Step 1: enter the sound settings for your TV, find the equaliser. Step 2: drop the 233Hz [or closest] channel (which Samsung TVs have, second from left), and raise the adjacent levels. Step 3: save as a custom setup (if you can). Repeat for 466, 932 and 1864Hz
We gave it a try on a Samsung TV, and while it doesn't remove the vuvuzela noise completely, it does tone it down. It also takes some of the depth out of the commentary, as voices sound less rounded and full bodied, perhaps no bad thing. The settings should work on most TVs where you can make changes to the sound levels in this way, but if they don't on your television you do have another option. Marlow Method B: Play the sound through your PC sound card. Run the free program Audacity and set up notch [cancellation] filters at frequencies 233, 466, 932 and 1864Hz
