Osama Bin Laden Is Dead, Barack Obama Announces



President Barack Obama announced that the killing of Osama bin Laden "a good day for America," the world was safer without the al-Qaida terrorist and mastermind of the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks.

His administration used DNA testing to help confirm that American forces in Pakistan had in fact killed bin Laden, as U.S. officials sought to erase all doubt about the stunning news.

Osama Bin Laden was shot in the head during a firefight and then quickly buried at sea.

"We can all agree this is a good day for America," a subdued Obama said during a Medal of Honor ceremony in the glimmering White House East Room.

Three adult males were also killed in the raid, including one of bin Laden's sons, whom officials did not name. One of bin Laden's sons, Hamza, is a senior member of al-Qaida. U.S. officials also said one woman was killed when she was used as a shield by a male combatant, and two other women were injured.

Mexico 'Vampire Woman' - Maria Jose Cristerna, Monster Horns And Piercings, Call It Sign Of Strength

We have video, we have photos, and you have to believe it. This woman from Mexico, named Maria Jose Cristerna, a 35-year-old tattoo artist reportedly says a horrific history of domestic violence triggered her decision to re-invent herself as a "vampire."

Cristerna recently showed off a new set of titanium "horn" implants -- along with dental "fangs" and multiple facial piercings -- at a Monterrey tattoo exhibition, but insists she lives a normal life. "The horns I have are a symbol of strength and were implanted without anesthetic," the Catholic-raised mother-of-four tells the Sun proudly. "I had the fangs done because I loved vampires as a little girl and I changed the color of my eyes so they were how I really wanted them to be.'

She says she wants to have more titanium horns implanted in the back of her head. "Tattooing is my way of being immortal, of really being a vampire and not dying -- leaving my work on other people's skin."

So, let's look at the photos and video below, and tell us what do you think.

March 11, devastating day for Japan, after the magnitude-8.9 offshore earthquake happened, a deadly tsunami came off and swept away cars, homes and businesses as it touched land.

The Associated Press is reporting that up to 300 bodies have already been found in the northeastern coastal city of Sendai, the city in Miyagi prefecture (state) closest to the quake's epicenter, with another 88 were confirmed killed and at least 349 still missing.
