Mexican and his alligator wife

Mayor of San Pedro Huamelula, a city in Mexico, Joel Vazquez
Rojas, on Tuesday tied the knot with an alligator princess named
María Isabel in a traditional ceremony that attracted hundreds of
guests who watched and cheered in excitement.
The annual ceremony is meant to bring plenty of fish, shrimp and
seafood to the fishermen who live in the Pacific coast town.
It was busy day for the lucky alligator, as not only did she walk
down the aisle dressed in traditional white garb and with a very
large piece of duct tape around her deadly mouth, she was also
baptised prior to the festivities.
The ceremony happens every year, and Mayor Rojas even
exchanges vows with the reptiles during the event.
And like all wedding parties, this one was followed by a massive
ceremony where the newlywed princess alligator changed into
more colorful attire and was held by her new husband as he
danced and swung her around the floor.

Police credited an air pocket with saving their lives. The two cousins, 11-year-old Elijah Martinez and 9-year-old Jason Rivera, were building a snow fort Wednesday night across the street from Elijah's apartment in Newburgh when a plow operator clearing a parking lot unknowingly pushed snow over them. Buried in about 5 feet of snow, they could barely move and couldn't breathe very well, so they could do nothing as they heard the anguished cries nearby. Jason lost his gloves. His hat flew off. They relied on each other to stay alive, they said, sharing Elijah's face mask to try and keep their hands warm and talking to each other so they wouldn't fall asleep. "I felt so tired. It didn't feel real that they were coming to get u...

Ebiripo: one of the best Ijebu Food

In spite of the fact that most of the Ijebu foods are tuber-related such as Ikokore, Ojojo, Ebiripo etc, the process of cooking these tuber varieties with special sauces makes them nutritionally rich and appropriate for all occasions. Ebiripo is a typical Ijebu cocoyam meal that can be cooked in various ways and spiced up to make a balanced diet. Cocoyam is purely carbohydrates and poor in other nutrients but many have now found ways to make the roots nutritious by adding soya beans while making Ebiripo. According to a study by Sowonola O. A. Et al, from the Federal College of Agriculture, Moor Plantation, Ibadan, Oyo State, “The combination of cocoyam and soyabeans in the processing of Ebiripo will bring about nutrient complement ability”.
