I have a new found appreciation for women's hockey

The International Olympic Committee will investigate the actions of Canadian women's hockey players who celebrated their gold medal victory Thursday night by swigging beer and smoking cigars on the ice in Vancouver.

A number of players, including 18-year-old superstar Marie-Philip Poulin, were drinking alcohol on the ice following the team's 2-0 defeat of the United States. (The legal drinking age in BC is 19.)

Players lingered for more than 70 minutes after the awards ceremony reveling in the arena, which was empty except for media and arena staff.

The drinking Koala

"Koala Man" Dave Tree made news across the globe with footage of a koala drinking from a bottle. The footage, shot on a mobile phone was all over Youtube.
However the appealing scene was actually taken in the week leading up to the fires, during preventative backburning operations.

He's still in news. They are doing a TV show about the lady who is now looking after him. Koalas don't normally drink. They get all their moisture from Eucalyptus leaves, which also makes them pretty stoned most of the time....what a life!
