The striking image  taken by  photographer Rich Lam has been splashed around the world over  the past two days and on June 17, the couple was identified. Lying in  the middle of a downtown street in  Vancouver was Canadian Alex Thomas  and her  Australian boyfriend Scott Jones, seen cradling her in his arms  and brushing his lips  against hers. Scott was comforting her and gave  her a kiss to say, 'It's going to be  OK,' and the photographer just  took the shot at that moment.<br /><br /><br /></span> <div style="width:10px;float:left;"> </div>  <div class="stryimg"><img align="left" alt="Say No to pull up pants!" border="0" height="308" src="http://www.indiatimes.com/photo/8903130.cms" title="Say No to pull up pants!" width="340" /></div>  <h3>Say No to pull up pants!<span class="stryimgsep"></span></h3><span>It  has emerged that a passenger was deboarded from the plane at San  Francisco  International Airport and arrested after he refused to pull  up his baggy pants. Deshon Marman, 20, was asked to pull up his sagging pants before  boarding a US Airways  flight to Albuquerque. Marman's pants were  reportedly below his waist, exposing much  of his boxer shorts. An  airline employee asked Marman to pull up his pants at the  boarding  gate, and the request was repeated aboard the plane, but he refused. At that point he was asked to leave the plane.</span><br /><br /><div style="width:10px;float:left;"> </div>  <div class="stryimg"><img align="left" alt="Cat survives 14-storey-fall" border="0" height="308" src="http://www.indiatimes.com/photo/8903125.cms" title="Cat survives 14-storey-fall" width="340" /></div>  <h3>Cat survives 14-storey-fall<span class="stryimgsep"></span></h3><span>A  cat has incredibly survived the severe consequences of slipping from  the 14th floor  of her owners’ New York City apartment building. Angela  Lang and her family, who moved  into the Upper West Side apartment last  month, never thought that nine-year-old Copper  would be able to slip  out of the building through the windows, which hardly opened  very wide.  But the pet somehow managed to slip out onto a ledge only to fall 14   stories to the street below. When admitted to a local veterinary  hospital, the cat not  only had survived the ultimate after-effect but  also managed to limp away with only a  fractured foot.</span><br /><br /><div style="width:10px;float:left;"> </div>  <div class="stryimg"><img align="left" alt="Boys vomit to lose weight" border="0" height="308" src="http://www.indiatimes.com/photo/8903124.cms" title="Boys vomit to lose weight" width="340" /></div>  <h3>Boys vomit to lose weight<span class="stryimgsep"></span></h3><span>A  study of nearly 16,000 schoolchildren has shown that children as young  as 10 are  making themselves vomit in order to lose weight and the  problem is more common in boys  than girls. The study of 120 schools,  carried out for Taiwan''s Ministry of Education,  also found that 16% of  the boys made themselves sick, compared with 10% of the girls. The findings also suggest that self-induced vomiting might serve as an  early marker  for the development of obesity and/or other eating and  weight-related problems</span><br /><br /><div class="innerbox"> <div style="width:10px;float:left;"> </div> <div class="storybox"> <div class="stryimg"><img align="left" alt="Teabag & poached egg" border="0" height="308" src="http://www.indiatimes.com/photo/8903122.cms" title="Teabag & poached egg" width="340" /></div> <div class="strytext"> <h3>Teabag & poached egg<span class="stryimgsep"></span></h3><span>It  has always been difficult to make a perfect poached egg, but now, the  invention of  a pouch that is like a teabag, has made it possible. The  Poachet, which is made from a  semi-permeable papery fabric and allows  contact with water, is very different from  other poaching devices,  which are made from synthetic materials. It works in a similar  way to a  teabag, and holds the egg in the perfect shape while it cooks. All one  has to  do is open the Poachet and place it in a small glass, with the  open end up, then crack  an egg into it, before placing the bag in  boiling water.<br /><br /><br /><a href="http://www.indiatimes.com/picture-stories/wild-wacky/Riot-kiss-goes-viral/photostory/8903133.cms">http://www.indiatimes.com/</a><br /></span></div></div></div><br /></div></div></div>

Wild & Wacky

'Riot kiss' goes viral Flanked by police with shields and batons battling a riot following Vancouver's hockey champions...

<div class="stryimg"><img align="left" alt="Not all smooches are romantic" border="0" height="308" src="http://www.indiatimes.com/photo/7305649.cms" title="Not all smooches are romantic" width="340" /></div>  <h3>Not all smooches are romantic<span class="stryimgsep"></span></h3><span>Want  to know what a kiss reveals? A new book, 'Kisstory' tells the history  of kissing and reveals that not all smooches are romantic. For instance,  in Naples in 1562 kissing publicly was punishable by death. The word  "kiss" comes from the Germanic word kussjan, probably because of the  sounds it makes.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /></span> <div style="width: 10px; float: left;"> </div>  <div class="stryimg"><img align="left" alt="336 hours of kissing in a lifetime" border="0" height="308" src="http://www.indiatimes.com/photo/7305643.cms" title="336 hours of kissing in a lifetime" width="340" /></div>  <h3>336 hours of kissing in a lifetime<span class="stryimgsep"></span></h3><span>In  a lifetime, the average person spends around 336 hours kissing –  equivalent to a fortnight-long snug, reports the Sun. What we term a  French kiss is known as an English kiss in India. As kisses weren't  shown in Indian cinema for many years, the first open-mouthed smooch  they saw was in a little-known English-language film in 1926. </span><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div class="innerbox"> <div style="width: 10px; float: left;"> </div> <div class="storybox"> <div class="stryimg"><img align="left" alt="First all-male kiss" border="0" height="308" src="http://www.indiatimes.com/photo/7305642.cms" title="First all-male kiss" width="340" /></div> <div class="strytext"> <h3>First all-male kiss<span class="stryimgsep"></span></h3><span>Meanwhile  the French describe tongue-kissing as "rouler une pelle" - "to roll a  shovel" – or "rouler un patin" – "to skate". The 2005 film Brokeback  Mountain drew a lot of attention for depicting a sexual relationship  between men, but the first all-male kiss in a film came almost 80 years  earlier, in the 1927 movie Wings.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /></span> <div class="innerbox"> <div style="width: 10px; float: left;"> </div> <div class="storybox"> <div class="stryimg"><img align="left" alt="Longest-ever kiss" border="0" height="308" src="http://www.indiatimes.com/photo/7305639.cms" title="Longest-ever kiss" width="340" /></div> <div class="strytext"> <h3>Longest-ever kiss<span class="stryimgsep"></span></h3><span>However,  the first openly gay big-screen kiss came even earlier – as the 1922  movie Manslaughter included two lesbians snogging. The most kisses seen  in a film was 191 – Don Juan, in 1926 – while the longest-ever kiss  lasted a breathtaking (and strength-sapping) 31 hours and 30 minutes.</span></div></div></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div style="width: 10px; float: left;"> </div>  <div class="stryimg"><img align="left" alt="Wolfram kissed 8,001 people in 8 hours" border="0" height="308" src="http://www.indiatimes.com/photo/7305637.cms" title="Wolfram kissed 8,001 people in 8 hours" width="340" /></div>  <h3>Wolfram kissed 8,001 people in 8 hours<span class="stryimgsep"></span></h3><span>In  1990, Alfred Wolfram kissed 8,001 people in eight hours during a  festival in Minnesota – an average of 16 people per minute. But kissers  should beware as a single snog can contain up to 278 types of bacteria,  some of which may carry diseases, while a passionate peck can raise  hormone levels enough to shorten your life by a full minute.</span><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://www.indiatimes.com/picture-stories/history-of-kissing/Not-all-smooches-are-romantic/photostory/7305649.cms">http://www.indiatimes.com/</a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /></div></div></div>
