It's been an action-packed week for the world - as evidenced by the Men's Downhill Training at the Audi FIS World Cup at Rosa Khutor Mountain Resort in Sochi, Russia.

And golf was getting into full swing at the International Container Terminal Services Incorporated (ICTSI) Philippine Open at Wack Wack Golf and Country Club in Manila

Meanwhile the snow may have been causing travel chaos and leaving people shivering, but the coating of white stuff around Northampton Town's Sixfields Stadium was truly a sight to behold.

A huddle of Japanese macaque monkeys was less impressed however.

A Tamil Hindu priest made for a picture perfect moment applying antiseptic powder on his face after a ceremonial steel rod was removed.

The display was in aid of Thaipusam, an annual festival that celebrates the victory of good over evil, marks the day when Goddess Parvati presented a weapon to Murugan, her son with Hindu God Shiva, to vanquish a demon army.

aewsome? I find worrying because when monkey gather such a way, they have news to give. I remembered when there was an earthquake when i was on holiday, before it came, all the animals started to run like hell have broken out, i was wondering and few elders started to say it could be earrhquake coming? I asked how could you tell? One replied 50 years ago he wintnessed it so he know? Yes he was dam right and minute later it came and his knowledge save me because i was in the building, i believed him so i walked out as well all gone and many thousands died i said thank you Lord for this man who asked me come my friend time has come? Yes i have heard saying about nature and monkey too. it is true something is coming some where God knows where?

DUDE......Just the picture. I haven't a clue on the meaning...and I really don't think you do either. Speculation isn't knowledge-maybe they were voting in a sheriff.
