The Latin word decimate means to reduce by ten percent. We will now look at previously not thought of invertebrate (spineless) creatures that will at the very least decimate your body through bone crushing bites, damage your flesh or annihilate you through burning, drowning or terror in truly awful attacks.
Animals have been used in war for a long time: ever since we learned that sitting on a horse was faster than running. These ten examples show some of the more unusual ways we’ve used animals as weapons of war over the years. And just as a note, this doesn’t include blatantly heinous tactics like strapping bombs to dogs—those people should never be honored. All of these entries are unique either for being ridiculously awesome, creative, or just, well, sort of bizarre.
As a one-time professional singer, I understand how grueling live performances can be. But, unlike all of the entries on this list, I survived my years in the spotlight. This list looks at twelve people who died in the midst of a performance.

There are five “squares” or rooms on a farm in Sasbachwalden Village – a tiny community known for its wine-making and wood processing. Named after the kind of wine that was stored in each of the enormous oak barrels, which are so lovingly restored it will break your heart, the rooms are accompanied by a small rocky garden, flowers, a bench, and even a bathroom. Oh, and don’t worry about winter time. These cozy rooms are heated. There is a double bed in each barrel, though it can be separated into two singles upon request, and a basket of yummy German goodies await your arrival. The owners offer deals too. Here’s one: one night, two people, breakfast, a basket full of cheese and sausage, and wine. And what do you think that might cost? Your right arm, perhaps? Oh no, they are only charging 156 Euros – for two people. That’s a steal! Comprised of 70 percent forest, Sasbachwalden boasts lush green hills and spectacular sunsets. We can hardly think of a better place to spend the night.

Air pollution in China has gotten so bad lately that one entrepreneurial environmentalist's wacky idea for a solution doesn't seem all that far-fetched: putting clean air in a can.
When a thick gray haze blanketed Beijing and several other nearby Chinese cities last week, sending kids to the hospital, grounding planes, and causing the government to order cars off the road, Chen Guangbiao hit the streets of Beijing to hand out yellow and green cans of smog-free, non-carcinogenic air. "Free fresh air. Open it and drink it and breathe it!" the Guardian quoted the multimillionaire and national celeb as saying. "It keeps you fresh the whole day!"
China is officially overdue for a "clean air act" of their own.
Record has it that the smog in China was in fact, so bad that you can see it from space. From space!
Two Russian fighter jets recently whipped about Japan's airspace, causing the Japanese to scramble their own aircraft together for a possible attack. The jets were only over Hokaido for about a minute, but even that was long enough for the riots & protests to begin.
33-year-old Christopher Jordan Dorner, an ex-LAPD officer, is being hunted down for the shooting of more than 3 people, some of whom were law enforcement officers, in the passed week. Rumor has it that this is some kind of retaliation for being fired some 4 years ago. Looks like they were right to fire him!
On Sunday, Dorner killed Keith Lawrence and Monica Quan in Irvine, California, while sitting in a vehicle, authorities say. Quan was the daughter of former LAPD officer Randal Quan, who, it is claimed in the letter, handled Dorner's termination appeal and bungled it.
On Thursday, just after being named as the suspect, Dorner decides to ambush two officers at an intersection in Riverside, California. One officer dies, the other was hospitalized.

"It's Time to Read Me," is an electric pin-board that lights up with reminders. Now you can't ever forget any of your memos because they'll have a timer!
An ex police officer Christopher Dorner has already killed 3 people, and severely wounded one. He's being hunted by L.A.P.D. He has been fired for falsely accusing another officer of using excessive force in 2008, and seems to be after revenge. "The violence of action will be high. I will bring unconventional and asymmetrical warfare to those in LAPD uniform whether on or off duty," Dorner wrote. "The attacks will stop when the department states the truth about my innocence."
"There are early indications that people are having a love affair again with the idea of grunge," said Ken Downing, fashion director of luxury department store Neiman Marcus. The messy, punk grunge style was embodies by Nirvana singer Kurt Cobain and his wife Courtney Love in the 80's. It was a hit for some time and is now expected to come back in fall and winter! Grunge is going to be a part of the rock n' roll theme shown by more then 90 designers showing at the 2013 Mercedes Benz Fashion Week at Manhattan's Lincoln Center.
