A California college student who set up a Web site asking for donations for breast implants has reached her goal.

The 23-year-old, known as Michel, created giveboobs.com and asked for money to “help a girl fill out her sweater.” She’s now raised $4,500 to have her 34A breasts enlarged.

“My boobs would like to thank everyone who sent support and contributions,” she said, promising to post new pictures on her site after surgery.

Two huge Siberian tigers at the San Francisco Zoo have become the biggest scaredy-cats in town – they’re terrified of an oil painting of another tiger in their enclosure.

“It’s their instinct to feel threatened by another tiger,” said keeper Linda Caratti. “They just haven’t figured out it’s a picture. Instead, they look totally scared, like it’s a giant ghost tiger.”

The tigers, named Tony and Emily, often refuse to come inside, even at feeding time, and won’t turn their backs on the 8-foot-square painting.

Officials at an Alabama school are in hot water for giving seniors beer mugs and shot glasses as graduation presents.

“To me, it’s sending a bad message that drinking is elegant,” said Virginia Benintende, who has two grandsons at Gulf Shores HS.

But a school spokesman insisted, “They’re not shot glasses until you put alcohol in it. It’s not a beer mug until you put beer in it.”

A Swedish home-care worker looking for a new job placed a classified ad about how untalented she is – and landed a new position with higher pay.

“I want a well-paid job. I have no imagination, I am anti-social, uncreative and untalented,” said the ad by Angelika Wedberg, 30, of Goteborg.

Her phone started ringing off the hook, and she scored a job that pays $2,118 per month – 30 percent more than she had been making.
