Save the Planet?
Here's one way to stop global warming and save the planet's atmosphere....(kinda).....
STOP SHEEP FROM FARTING OUT BAD GAS BY FEEDING THEM CURRY!!
Scientists say that feeding curry to sheep could help save the planet - by reducing methane emissions.
Researchers found that coriander and turmeric can reduce the amount of methane produced by sheep by up to 40%.
The spices, traditionally used in curry, were found to kill the "bad" bacteria in the animal's gut while allowing the "good" bacteria to flourish.
"Coriander seeds, for example, are often prescribed for stomach complaints while turmeric and cloves are strong antiseptics.
"Methane is a major contributor to global warming and the slow digestive system of ruminant animals such as cows and sheep makes them a key producer of the gas.

Imagine driving home in the car after work and thinking, I love if someone just gave me loads of money wouldn't that be great!!!!!!!!!!
Lorry spills millions in road
Motorists thought they had hit the jackpot after a lorry carrying millions of euro in coins overturned and spilled its load.
The lorry's rear door popped open, shedding the precious cargo in the road, near Foggie, southern Italy.
Piles of one and two euro coins were left scattered along the motorway, reports the BBC.
Before the police arrived, drivers stopped their cars and made off with at least 10,000 euro.
Police later closed the motorway to try to recover the money.
The lorry, belonging to a security firm, was transporting €2.5m in coins from Cesena to Bari, distributing money from the Italian mint to banks, reports say.

Cheryl has Maleria?
We spoke about her on the show on monday and how she had collapsed but this seems to be quite serious!!!!
Cheryl collapsed at the weekend after contracting deadly disease malaria during a trip to Tanzania last month, according to reports.
The Girls Aloud star sparked fears for her health after fainting during a photoshoot in London on Saturday.
Initial reports suggested the singer was suffering from exhaustion and a severe stomach bug due to her heavy workload.
However, The Sun reports that the star's illness stems from catching mosquito-borne illness malaria while visiting Africa in June and that she is currently under medics' watch in hospital.
A source tells the publication, "She told doctors she'd had stomach pains since her return from Tanzania. On Sunday evening her condition deteriorated so rapidly she knew it was something serious.
"She'd spent 48 hours in bed trying to sleep off what she thought was a stomach bug. She was extremely weak, sweating and drifting in and out of consciousness. She was driven to hospital where tests showed malaria. Everyone is really concerned. She is very ill."
The star's representative confirmed on Monday that Cole was ordered to take time off by doctors and that she would not be able to work for at least a week.
Surely no one can be this lucky!!!!!!
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."
