Bummed out because you can't get a sushi pedicure anymore (original post here)? Why not try an $80 Israeli snake massage? The spa uses a combo of big snakes for a deep massage (the king and corn snakes are heavy enough to produce a kneading sensation) and little ones, whose passage over the skin is a trembling flutter. "People either like it a lot or they hate it," says the spas owner. [Time]

Israeli soldier gets tongue pierced, then brain infection, then dead
The 20-year-old soldier collapsed a few days after having his tongue pierced. Doctors determined the piercing caused a rare brain infection. The Israeli military says it bans tongue piercing. This fellow should have followed orders. [El Paso Times]

Israeli city to use DNA to identify dog poop offenders
Authorities in Petah Tikva, Israel are tired of stepping in dog poop, so they are setting up a special DNA database of local dogs. They will use the data to match dogs' droppings to owners - and punish those who do not clean up after their pets. Sounds like a great idea to me. [BBC]
