Psychologist Mitchell Spero trained his pet turtle to do dog tricks! Florida can sit, stay, and roll over (turtles in the wild do their best to avoid the rollover). Spero uses his turtle as an example of overcoming obstacles, to encourage the children he works with.

The Movida nightclub in London has launched a new cocktail that will sell for £35,000. That’s roughly equivalent to $71,000 US dollars. They call this drink the Flawless, and it will be mixed and served under the supervision of security guards.
The cocktail consists of a large measure of Louis XII cognac, half a bottle of Cristal Rose champagne, some brown sugar, angostura bitters and a few flakes of 24-carat edible gold leaf. The drink is described as warming and refreshing, but that is not the main reason for the exorbitant cost: at the bottom of the crystal glass is an 11-carat white diamond ring.
The nightclub has already taken several orders. Link -via Fark
