World: Duh: Man killed by bull-goring during the running of the bulls

  • Most obvious headline we’ll write all day. Now, we’re not rocket scientists here, but if a bull is running after tons of people, it’s probably gonna hurt someone, right? Well, that’s Pamplona, Spain for you, where Daniel Jimeno Romero, 27, was killed in a bull attack. He’s the 15th fatal victim of the bull running since records started to be kept in 1924, and – not counting a guy who died after being in a coma for six months – the first to die since 1995. It’s a stupid tradition which should end, both for the safety of the bulls and for that of the humans. source

Sports: There’s a sad ending for Mike Tyson’s daughter Exodus :(

  • She was taking off life support this morning. Exodus, victim of a terrible accident involving a treadmill, died this morning at 11:45 a.m. It’s perhaps one of the more gut-wrenching stories we’ve run lately and we wish the best to the Tyson family in this difficult time. source
