PHOTOS: 10 Odd Wedding Rituals of All Times...........

1)The tradition of not allowing the newlyweds to use the bathroom for 3 days.

Well, this one can get painful and ugly. Members of the Tidong community in Sandakan, Sabah, Malaysia do not allow newlyweds to go to the bathroom for 3 days and 3 nights. If they do, they will have bad luck, apparently. Bad luck may come in the form of a broken union, the death of children, or even infertility. The couple is starved and given little water.

2) The ritual of marrying animals to exorcise ghosts.

In some parts of India it is believed that if a baby girl has a tooth rooted to her upper gum, it's the obvious sign that she will be eaten by a tiger or something in the near future, because ghosts hate her. Therefore, she must marry an animal. The good news is that this is nothing but a mock ceremony and the couple don't have to consummate the wedding. It's just to ward off the evil spirits so the girl can marry a real boy some time later.

3)The ritual where guests pay to dance with the bride.

This Polish tradition involves all of wedding guests, the bride, dancing, money and an apron. At the wedding reception, the bride will dance with her father, while a relative holds out an apron. Guests who place money in the apron win the opportunity to dance with the bride. After a time, the groom will throw in his wallet, thus surpassing all the other contributions. He will then whisk away his new wife on their honeymoon.

4) The brides who wear rings on their toes instead of fingers.

Whereas most jewelry exchanged at weddings involves placing rings on fingers, Hindu brides use the Bichiya, which is the tradition of wearing their wedding rings on their feet. The ring is usually silver and placed on a woman's left foot, specifically on her great toe (which is next to the big toe). The groom slips the ring on the bride's foot during the ceremony, and these rings are only worn by married women.

5)The ritual of smashing dishes.

The origin of this tradition is unknown, but it's thought that the cacophonous sounds caused by the smashing of the cookery represent the inevitable future disturbances that the couple will face throughout their married lives. By breaking the dishes beforehand, the community is preparing the couple for the obstacles ahead and simultaneously wishing them luck.

6) The practice of kidnapping brides.

Bride kidnapping, also known as marriage by abduction or marriage by capture, is a practice throughout history and around the world in which a man abducts the woman he wishes to marry. It's said that bride kidnapping still occurs in some cultures like the Romani, also known as Gypsies. If you manage to forcefully kidnap a girl and keep her by your side for 2-3 days, she officially becomes your wife. Pretty crazy, right?

7)The ritual of blackening the bride.

It's part of a hazing ritual that actually happens before the wedding. The bride is taken by surprise, by hands down the crummiest friends you could have, and covered from head to toe with foul substances such as eggs, various sauces, feathers, and, well, you name it….The ritual of covering brides and grooms in treacle, soot and flour used to be carried out to ward off evil spirits. It still happens in parts of Scotland.

8)The ritual where grooms jumps over a broom.

Jumping the broom is a time-honored wedding tradition in which the bride and groom jump over a broom during the ceremony. The act symbolizes a new beginning and a sweeping away of the past, and can also signify the joining of two families or offer a respectful nod to family ancestors.

9) The ritual of beating the groom's feet.

Most men look forward to the conclusion of their weddings, but in South Korea the groom has to endure a beating before he can retire with his bride. After the wedding ceremony, friends of the groom take off his socks, tie a rope around the ankles, and start beating the soles of his feet with dried yellow corvina. Yellow corvina is a kind of fish! It is done to make the groom stronger before the first wedding night.

Nearly Half Saudi Women Are Beaten At Home.........

Nearly half Saudi women are beaten up by their husbands or other family members at home and many of them are hit by sticks and head cover, according to a university study published in local newspapers on Tuesday.

Surprisingly, the study found that the Bedouin men who still dwell the desert in the conservative Gulf Kingdom, are less violent than Saudi men in urban areas.

The study was conducted by Dr Lateefa Abdul Lateef, a social science professor at King Saud University in the Capital Riyadh. It involved female students at the university and some Saudi women covered by the government’s social security.

The study showed that nearly half those covered by social security and more than a third of the female students at the university are beaten up at home," Dr Lateefa said.

"Husbands were found to be beating their wives more than others. They are followed by fathers, then brothers then sons…Hands and sticks were found to be used mostly in beating women, following by men’s head cover and to a lesser extent, sharp objects."

The study showed that husbands beating their wives included both educated and non-educated men and that "those dwelling in the desert are less violent with their wives than those living in cities or villages."

The study found that the main reasons for violence against women include poor religious motives, drug addiction and alcoholism, arrogance and a tendency to control, psychological problems, poverty, and unemployment.

Woman Drowns Son Because He Has A Small Pénis........

An Indonesian woman drowned her nine-year-old son in the bath, claiming she was worried that his “small man-hood” would affect his prospects for the future, a police spokesman said Thursday.

The 38-year-old woman from the Indonesian capital Jakarta told police her son had had a small man-hood prior to being circumcised, but that it appeared to shrink further after the operation, police spokesman Rikwanto told AFP.

“She told police investigators that she killed him as he would have a bleak future with his small man-hood,” Rikwanto said.

“She drowned her son in a bathtub filled with water. She then dressed him and laid him on a bed. After that, she went to a nearby police office to report her crime.”

Rikwanto said the woman was fully conscious of what she had done, but police ordered a psychiatry test to assess her mental condition.

Mourning Parents Find Dead Baby Alive In The Mortuary..............

A couple didn’t know how to respond after finding their dead baby alive in a hospital morgue.

Five doctors at Perrando Hospital, in northern Argentina have been suspended for the declaration of a stillbirth and having the baby nailed inside a coffin and placing it in a cold room in the hospital morgue for 12 hours, the Argentina news media reported.

The boy, who was named Luz Milagros, or “Light Miracle”, was found in a coffin in the hospital in Chaco, a half a day after his birth.

“We were told the baby had hypothermia and that this may have weakened her heart, which was already low before birth,” said the baby’s father, Fabian Veron, who is 31 years old.

The baby’s mother, Analia Bouter, 29, who has four children, said she never had the chance to say goodbye to her child, since she was sedated during birth, which came three months early.

The grieving mother and father visited the hospital morgue 12 hours later. The couple was taken to a cold room and shown a small coffin that was nailed shut.

“My husband used a lever and opened the coffin,” said Bouter.

The mother, hoping to find closure, instead came face to face with her daughter, who was wrapped in a white blanket and it looked as if she was just waking up, the mother said. The baby stretched and let out a scream.

The mother of five children, said she fell to her knees. “This is a message from God, a miracle,” she told the news media.

Rafael Sabatinelli, the Assistant Secretary for Health of the province of Chaco, Argentina, told the news media, that his office had opened an investigation into the matter.

Man facing life in prison for trying to rape a 74-year-old woman in Elevator.........

A depraved ex-con is facing life in prison for trying to rape a 74-year-old woman in East Harlem on Tuesday, prosecutors said.
Angel Hernandez, 50, was held on $200,000 bail Wednesday after being hit with attempted rape, sex abuse and assault charges in the grisly attack inside a Lexington Ave. building.
“(He) dragged her into an elevator and got naked except for his socks,” Manhattan Assistant District Attorney Andrew Stengel said.
A witness called 911 and the attack was thwarted by two responding police officers who pulled open the elevator door and found Hernandez on top of his victim, officials said.
Before the cops arrived, Hernandez removed his clothes and the victim’s clothes and tried to force himself on her, putting his hands on her neck and his knee on her ribs after she resisted, according to the criminal complaint.
The victim suffered minor injuries.
Police say Hernandez has a record of crimes dating to 1998.
The Manhattan man had been released from prison just two months ago, according to prosecutors.
Hernandez appeared in court wearing a navy sweatshirt, corduroy pants and flip-flops.
He could face a life sentence because of his violent felony record, prosecutors said.
Residents of the Johnson Houses, the public housing development where the alleged attack occurred, were floored by news of the attack.
“(Hernandez) picked her because she’s vulnerable. She can’t do anything – she’s frail,” said Connie Ruiz, 66, who added the victim and her husband are a familiar sight in the neighborhood as they make their rounds collecting cans. “People are going to attack the elderly because they’re defenseless.”

Balotelli orders life-sized statue to ‘immortalise’ himself ............

MARIO Balotelli has ordered a life-sized statue of himself to make sure he is "immortalised" in his new Italian home.

The former Manchester City striker - who went home to Italy in January when he transferred to AC Milan - has reportedly contacted a local artist to create the work.
Livio Scarpella told Italian newspaper Il Giornale di Brescia: "I have received the commission, but I've never met Balotelli so I am working from photos."
He added: "I presented several drawings but Mario wanted to be immortalised in a pose that shows him having scored a goal, highlighting his muscles and with an expression of defiance.
"I have imagined him as an athlete from ancient times and the statue will be a mix of classical and pop style in platinum and coloured bronze with the eyes made of stones."
Italian media reports have claimed the statue will recreate his pose after he scored against Germany in the Euro 2012 semi-final.

Benitez Speaks: I’m leaving Chelsea ............

RAFA BENITEZ snapped last night and launched a blistering attack on Chelsea and their fans.

The Spaniard has endured ceaseless abuse since taking over in November.
After guiding the Blues to the FA Cup quarter-finals, Benitez said: “They gave me the title of interim manager which is a massive mistake.
“I will leave at the end of the season. The fans are not helping us. They are damaging the image of the club. They have to support the team instead of wasting time making banners.
“The fans do not create a good atmosphere at Stamford Bridge. They have to realise they are making a big mistake.
“They are putting pressure on the players.
“They could be playing Europa League again next season and not the Champions League.”
Benitez added: “I am a professional and I will do my job.
“The manager is the manager, one month, seven months, it does not matter. You are the manager.
“The people who run the club will know I am trying to do my best.
“I have been in charge of football for 26 years. I have won the Champions League, the FA Cup, the Italian Super Cup, the Spanish League twice.
“Nine trophies, all the trophies you can win at club level.”
Rafa’s latest rant came 48 hours after his training-ground row with skipper John Terry, as exclusively revealed by SunSport.
Now it would not be surprising if he had gone by the time Chelsea host West Brom on Saturday.
Ironically, the previous two Chelsea chiefs — Roberto Di Matteo and Andre Villas-Boas — were both axed by ruthless owner Roman Abramovich after losing to the Baggies.
Blues fans loathe Benitez for the rivalry they had when he was boss of Liverpool and the fact he replaced terrace hero Di Matteo at Stamford Bridge.
Benitez earned an FA Cup quarter-final clash at Manchester United after a stroke of duck last night.
The Blues were struggling to see off Championship outfit Middlesbrough in their fifth-round tie.
But in the 51st minute, Fernando Torres ducked out of the way of Ramires’ shot — and it flicked off the Spaniard and into the net.
Victor Moses’ strike confirmed the Old Trafford showdown on March 10.
PS RAFA: Chelsea’s last interim manager (Di Matteo) won the Champions League.

‘Obagoal’ set for Levante exit.........

Levante striker, Obafemi Martins, is close to leaving the Spanish La Liga club.

The 28-year-old striker fondly “Obagoal” revealed to Spanish radio station, CadenaSer Valencia, that he has held talks with Major League Soccer (MLS) side, Seattle Sounders.

But Martins will have to wait for Levante’s decision on the proposed transfer to the MLS club.

“[Seattle] have spoken to me, and we’ve made a good deal. They’ve already had a conversation with Levante and I’m waiting for the club to tell me something.

“It’s a good deal for me. It’s a good deal for everyone and for my family as well. It would be good to go to the United States,” said the Nigerian striker.

Martins also made it clear he is “not happy with Levante,” which is why he wants to leave.

“I’m not happy with Levante, that’s something I’ve communicated with the club. It’s not about money that is not being paid.

“I came to Levante for very little money and they will receive more than what it cost to sign me, so it would be a good deal for Levante,” said the former Inter Milan man.

Martins has a €3 million buyout clause in his contract at Levante and the club have stated that they would only negotiate within the player’s release clause.

“We will not be negotiating the transfer of any player at this time and if an offer is received, it will be referred to said player’s release clause,” stated Levante.

Reports are already suggesting that Martins and Seattle Sounders have agreed a three-year contract with an option of a year, which will see the Nigerian earn around $2.5m per annum.

PHOTOS: Touching Story Of A Man With Half Face.............

Ganesh Bhagat Chaurasia, 65, from Haridwar, northern India, suffers from a rare facial deformity that makes it difficult for him to work.

Even worse, his family disowned him - cutting him out of his land inheritance 50 years ago.

But refusing to look on the bad side, Ganesh now thanks his disability for keeping him alive as sympathetic people often offer him money, shelter and food because of his condition.

He said: “People are very kind and generous in India. I never ask for money but people voluntarily offer me things. This is the only way I survive now.”

Ganesh was born with just a small lump on his face but as time passed it grew to an enormous size, covering his eyes and leaving him unable to work.

He said: “My parents tried to get me some treatment; they spent thousands of rupees seeing doctors. In the end a Mumbai doctor did offer to operate on me but he said there was only a ten per cent chance of survival. It was just too risky, so they decided against it.

“My parents always worried about my chances of getting married. And they died too young to help me make that happen. In the end I had nothing to offer a bride so I decided it was best not to marry.”

Ganesh was the son of an affluent farmer and was set to inherit 30 acres of profitable agricultural land in Champaran, Bihar, northern India, when his father died.

But his uncle, along with some local officials, managed to claim ownership of the land and house, leaving then teenage Ganesh with nothing.

He explained: “I tried to fight him in the courts but in the end I lost because I just didn’t know the right people. Let’s say my uncle was very well connected and in the end officials even used my facial condition as an excuse to stop me entering offices.”

Ganesh managed to work as a mechanic for many years but in the end his facial condition left him unable to see clearly.

“My village folk hated being anywhere near me,” he said. “I know people don't like looking at me but I am not a bad person. I am a happy man, I make the most of what I have and I am the way I am.

“I have a good head on me, I know many trades and I could’ve been a success, but I have faced problems getting on in life because of my appearance.”

Ganesh now moves around small towns, sleeping in temples and eating where he can.

People give him around 200 rupees a day (£2.50), which he said is enough to survive on.

“I wasn't comfortable taking money from people at first but then I thought that maybe God has made me this way and this is what’s meant to be for me,” he added.

Ganesh is now a content man. He refuses to dwell on the negatives and believes he lives a good life compared to some.

He said: “I am God’s creation. I am not bitter about my appearance. Some people call me a reincarnation of Ganesh, the Hindu God, while others see me as the devil. But I don’t want any pity. This is my life and I live it the best I can.”

Dr Vivek Kumar, a plastic and cosmetic surgeon and consultant, at Sir Ganga Ram Hospital, in New Delhi, said Ganesh suffers from neurofibromatosis, meaning a large tumour has grown on his face.

He added: “This appears to potentially be a very treatable condition. But it would not be simple, and would require a specialist team of surgeons.”

But Ganesh doesn't want to see any surgeon, he said the time has passed for operating tables, and will now continue to live as he always has done.

104-year-old woman lies about age on facebook.........

Marguerite Joseph, the 104-year-old woman who had to lie about her age on Facebook might be old but not too old to shake up Facebook’s powerful CEO Mark Zuckerberg. Will Mark Zuckerberg succeed in allowing Facebook users to “Search for people, places and things” without any age limit or will Marguerite Joseph have to continue to lie about her age and stay the forever 99-year-old Facebook user? The heat is on.
As of Wednesday, Feb. 20, 2013, neither Facebook officials nor Mark Zuckerberg have been able to meet the 104-year-old woman’s challenge according to a Feb. 20, 2013, Daily News report.
“Facebook keeps Joseph young by allowing the senior, who is hard of hearing and legally blind, to share with the world, her granddaughter said. Her granddaughter tried to contact Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg about the problem to no avail.”
The granddaughter of the 104-year-old woman who had “to lie” about her age on Facebook is Gail Marlow. Three years ago, Gail tried to set up a profile for her then 101 year-old-grandmother but Facebook’s profile settings did not go back as far as 1908, the true birth year of Marguerite Joseph.
“Every time I tried to change the settings to the right year, Facebook always came back with an unknown error message and would send us right back to a year she wasn’t born in," said Gail about her struggle.
"I would love to see her real age on Facebook. I mean in April she’s going to be 105. It’s special.”
Even though Marguerite Joseph has grown older during the past three years, her age on Facebook has stayed at 99. The now 104-year-old woman from Gross Pointe Shores, Mich., loves using Facebook and keeping up with the lives of her grandchildren and friends. She has 109 Facebook friends and 84 posted pictures.
Despite being legally blind and hard of hearing, Marguerite reads and responds to all her messages. Gail says about her grandmother’s experience with Facebook, other than the feud over her age, that
“Regardless of the glitch, Marlow says that participating in social media makes her grandmother, who is legally blind and hard of hearing, feel young again.”
On behalf of her grandmother, Gail Marlow contacted Mark Zuckerberg, “but he never responded.”
If the case Zuckerberg versus 104-year-old woman who has to lie about her age on Facebook remains unsolved by the time that Marguerite Joseph turns 105, Facebook should at least rephrase their Search feature description to “Search for people, places and things -- under the age of 100.”
