Guinness World-Record Holding Cats Missing After Michigan Fire

FARMINGTON HILLS, Mich. — Two Guinness World Records-holding cats are missing after a fire gutted their owners’ suburban Detroit home.

Will and Lauren Powers escaped Sunday’s blaze, but Arcturus and Cygnus haven’t been seen since. Both cats are 2 years old.

Will Powers says the couple opened some doors as they fled their burning Farmington Hills’ house in hopes that Arcturus, Cygnus and their third cat would escape.

The Associated Press left a message Monday seeking comment from fire officials.

Arcturus holds the Guinness World Record for being the tallest domestic cat, measuring at about 19 inches. Cygnus is the domestic cat with the world’s longest tail, measuring at more than 17 inches.

Guinness has said the Powers sought the records to raise awareness about a cat shelter.

Which Banana Would You Eat? Your Answer May Have An Effect On Your Health

When we eat bananas, we do so because we are hoping to gain a number of different health benefits. While some of us eat them because we truly enjoy the taste, others are merely trying to keep their potassium levels high. This healthy snack also allows you to receive the proper amount of vitamins, in addition to other assorted nutrients our bodies require. Are you aware of the different colors and the benefits that they can provide?

Each banana coloration comes with its own distinct advantages. For starters, the greenest of bananas are a crucial part of our diet when we are struggling to keep our blood sugar in check. They are very low on the glycemic index, making them a wonderful snack for those who must pay close attention to their body’s sugar levels. Young and green bananas also lead to a longer period of satiety.

Bananas that are soft and brown may seem as if they do not have much to offer us from a health standpoint. A banana of this color tends to be far more sugary than their lighter counterparts. These bananas do come with their own special powers, though. They contain tryptophan, which reduces stress and anxiety. They are also rich in various nutrients that promote muscle and bone health.

Caring Wife.......... What a joke....

A man who is driving a car is stopped by a police officer.

The Officer: "You were going at least 75 in a 55 zone."
Man: "No sir, I was going 60."
Wife: "Oh, Harry. You were going 80."

Officer: "I'm also going to give you a ticket for your broken tail light."
Man: "Broken tail light? I didn't know about a broken tail light!"
Wife: "Oh Harry, you've known about that tail light for weeks."

Officer: "I'm also going to give you a citation for not wearing your seat belt."
Man: "Oh, I just took it off when you were walking up to the car."
Wife: "Oh, Harry, you never wear your seat belt."

Man turns to his wife and yells: "Shut your damn mouth!"
Officer turns to the woman and asks, "Ma'am, does your husband talk to you this way all the time?"
Wife: "No, only when he's drunk."

Norwegian Launches Fort Lauder dale-Martinique Flights

Low-cost carrier Norwegian officially launched its first ever flights from Fort Lauderdale to Martinique on Monday, kicking off the new nonstop service with a ribbon-cutting ceremony and some French Caribbean flair.
