Squirrels enjoy the vibrant floral colours of summer by playing with and smelling lots of different plants. The small rodents appear to particularly enjoy the dandelions, blowing the delicate seeds everywhere and even trying to eat them.
The striking red of their fur stands out against the pinks, purples and yellows of the summertime scene. These adorable images were taken in Bispgarden, Sweden, by photographer Geert Weggen who uses nuts and seeds to entice squirrels to the scenes in his garden. SEE OUR COPY FOR DETAILS.

World's smallest heart pacemaker

Pacemaker 1
Ref 16694

See Ferrari text
Pictures must credit: John A. Rogers/Northwestern University
A heart pacemaker so small it can be injected into the body has been developed by researchers.
The minuscule device is tinier than a single grain of rice.
It can fit inside the tip of a syringe and be non-invasively injected into the body.
Although it can work with hearts of all sizes, the pacemaker is particularly well-suited to the tiny, fragile hearts of newborn babies with congenital heart defects.
The pacemaker is paired with a small, soft, flexible, wireless, wearable device that mounts onto a patient’s chest to control pacing.
When the wearable device detects an irregular heartbeat, it automatically shines a light pulse to activate the pacemaker.
These short pulses— which penetrate through the patient’s skin, breastbone and muscles — control the pacing.
Even though the pacemaker is so tiny, measuring just 1.8 mm in width, 3.5 mm in length and one mm in thickness, it still delivers as much stimulation as a full-sized pacemaker.
The pacemaker is designed for patients who only need temporary pacing and simply dissolves after it’s no longer needed.
All the pacemaker’s components are biocompatible, so they naturally dissolve into the body’s bio-fluids, bypassing the need for surgical extraction.
Bioelectronics pioneer John A. Rogers, who led the device development for the USA’s Northwestern University, just outside Chicago, said: “We have developed what is, to our knowledge, the world’s smallest pacemaker."

Afton Burton AKA Star, poised to marry Charlie Manson
EXCLUSIVE: February 2015 - Corcoran, California USA: Amidst a flurry of rumor, Afton Elaine Burton, who has been dubbed 'Star' by Charles Manson, maintains that she will wed the 80 year old convicted murderer. The two were issued a marriage license in November 2014. At the time these photos were taken that license was to expire within days. In an exclusive videotaped interview with journalist James McGrath, Star spoke with conviction about her love for Manson, the status of their relationship and their commitment to being married legally. They consider themselves to be man and wife regardless. Star also displayed the use of a 'seed gun', a concept of Charlie Manson's, put into use.
