Fireworks Over Sydney - Neatorama

The new year came in hours ago in Australia, and Sydney welcomed 2014 with a glorious 12-minute fireworks display centered around the Sydney Harbour Bridge. THe finale, with the cascading shower off the bridge, begins at the 11:10 mark. -via The Week

You can keep track of which cities are approaching midnight with this New Year Tracker, which gives the times in Wichita, Kansas, (central time zone) so you can adjust accordingly. Enter your own time zone at the top, and you'll get a countdown for your area. Or you can go to this page and get a countdown for every time zone.

Personally, I think the New Year Map is the easiest to follow.

What the fork? I thought cats had nine lives and not dogs.

I don't believe for a moment that a fork, of all things, could accidentally get lodged in a dog's skull like that. This is a clear case of animal abuse.

I'm with Edward - it takes a lot of force to push a fork through a skull ...

Flew off the handle? Sounds more like a human flew off the handle with the dog scrounging and had a stab at it.

I'll have a hot-dog, please.

Count me in as a skeptic of the broken handle theory.

Of course it was deliberate, but how else do you check if he's done yet?

Ok, this is not neat, this is ridiculous. How could someone possibly do this to an animal?

Kal that is so wrong, funny, but wrong :D

Poor pup. Im skeptical but strange accidents happen so Im not automatically jumping to the animal abuse conclusion. Why would you take him to the vet if you did this on purpose?

Sounds bogus.
No, I just can't fathom this.

Maybe the person who did it is not the one in the family who took him to the vet.

How sad.

Seems like the yappy little mutt will still be barking in the near future.

However, it seems like it would be somewhat tricky to actually manage to fork a chihuahua in the head on purpose. They are small and rather mobile. Humans have bigger heads and stay still better.

Oh my god!! That picture is incredibly disturbing... would have been nice to not include it right in the RSS feed, I almost choked!!

Crazy story, though; did the dog have any brain damage??

Lisa A - it's a chihuahua - how could you tell?

It was lost in the woods for a few day. I have to admit, that would be a VERY strange site to randomly see. You are out in the woods for one reason or an other and behind some bushes you see a fork handle at shin level moving towards you! Then, it comes around from cover and its a chihuahua with a fork in it, who scampers away. Truely a WTF moment (if only someone saw it).

I'm sorry to see everyone is so negative on the dog because of its breed. I guess it's ok when bad things happen to some things (or people??)...

Actually, it's quite easy to put something through many chihuahua's skulls, because the soft spot on top of their heads never closes (you know, the one human babies are born with). They've been killed by something as small as a pinecone hitting the top of their head. By the way, I'm a vet.

Yep, it hit the fontanel.

An uncle of mine once stuck a pick-axe through his dog's skull (dog was running through while he was digging a hole in the backyard, completely unintentional). He assumed it was dead until he went back a few hours later and found it alive. It's still around to this day with a big knot on its scalp. The dog is also a tripod (wasn't born that way) and has survived a couple of encounters with cars, so I don't have any trouble believing that a chihuahua survived a forking.
