Kangaroo is on the menu this weekend (and this weekend only) at both locations of The Burger Bistro, in Bay Ridge and Park Slope. The kangaroos in these Burger Bistro burgers are sourced directly from Australia—none of that Canadian factory-farm kanga meat here. The burgers will go for $12, and customers can order them with the bread, topping and cheese of your choice.

Will "Stay Sober" Pill Change Everything About How We Drink?
Ever since Science told us that heavy drinkers will outlive nondrinkers, we've been waiting for the other shoe to drop. But it seems that Science really wants to encourage us to drink as much as we possibly can, based on their latest concoction: Australian scientists are developing a "stay sober" pill, designed to limit the effects of alcohol on the brain. If we weren't already ignoring the Health Department's "you're cut off" ad campaign, we certainly would be now!
How Does Australia See The Five Boroughs?

Australian Sheep Farmer Vows To Sue False Accusers
The Australian sheep farmer who was acquitted of drugging and raping a LI speech therapist is heading back to Australia...but not before he sues his accusers. Australian David Green says he plans to file a $1 million lawsuit against the two women whose false accusations of date rape led to him spending more than a year and a half in Rikers. "They took 18 months from me," he told reporters today as he left Manhattan Supreme Court.
Global Warming and Bad Harvests Raise Cost of Beer
First devastating weather patterns and destroyed coral reefs, then lousy harvests and global food shortages, now this: soaring beer prices. In an increasingly warmer world, precious, life-sustaining beer is becoming a luxury item. The past year has seen a drought in Australia, flooding in Germany, hailstorms in the Pacific Northwest, and lower crop yields throughout Europe – all resulting in a dramatic spike in the cost of grains and hops.
Bagel Prices Ballooning Across New York
“It’s horrible. I don’t know what we’re going to do,” Arye Lewkowitz, owner of Daniel’s Bagels on Third Avenue, recently told Metro. “We’re going to have to sell a bagel for over $1.” Lewkowitz isn’t alone; bagel and bread prices are soaring nationwide due to the skyrocketing cost of wheat, which more than doubled in the past year in New York, from $5.31 a bushel to $14.22.
