KOMODO DRAGON Do you know what is the largest lizard? This lizard is called komodo.

It lives in the scrub and woodland of a few Indonesian islands. Komodo dragon is the world's heaviest lizard, weighing 150 pounds or more. The largest Komodo ever measured was more than 10 feet (3 meters) long and weighed 366 pounds (166 kg) but the average size of komodo in the wild is about 8 feet (2.5 meters) long and 200 pounds (91 kg) Komodo has gray scaly skin, a pointed snout, powerful limbs and a muscular tail. They use their keen sense of smell to locate decaying animal remains from several miles away. They also hunt other lizards as well as large mammals and are sometimes cannibalistic. The Komodo dragon's teeth are almost completely covered by its gums. When it feeds, the gums bleed, creating an ideal culture for virulent bacteria. The bacteria that live in the Komodo dragon's saliva causes septicemia, or blood poisoning, in its victims. A dragon will bite its prey, then follow it until the animal is too weak to carry on. This lizard species is threatened by hunting, loss of prey species and habitat loss.

COURT AGAIN TO CONSIDER PNG GOVERNMENTS LEGITIMACY All cases stayed until legality of Parliamentary actions determined By Jacob Pok and Angeline Karius PORT MORESBY, Papua New Guinea (The National, Feb. 8, 2012) The Supreme Court will begin preliminary hearings on two special references relating to the legitimacy of the government from next Monday. This was decided by a three-judge bench hearing a series of cases relating to political developments in the country which led to wrangling between Sir Michael Somare and Peter ONeill over who should be running the countrys affairs. The courtroom was packed to capacity again yesterday as the bench headed by deputy Chief Justice Gibbs Salika, Bernard Sakora and Nicholas Kirriwom gave directives on how to deal with the 14 related cases before the court. The judges issued a blanket stay on all other cases while they focused on the two references SCR 1 of 2012 filed by Dr Allan Marat and SCR 2 of 2012 filed by parliament. Sir Michaels lawyer, Kerenga Kua, yesterday also raised a question of competency on whether Marat, ONeills appointed attorney-general, had the right to file a reference. This would be among other questions to be raised in the next sitting of the Supreme Court. Among the 12 cases stayed was an application to discharge orders concerning the suspension of Chief Justice Sir Salamo Injia. The court will later decide on a time length of the proceedings, appoint a penal of judges to preside on the cases and clear other preliminary issues before the substantive hearings. The reference filed by Marat consists of 29 constitutional questions relating to the actions of parliament since Aug 2 last year. It was when parliament passed a motion to create a vacancy in the office of the prime minister that subsequently removed Sir Michael from the post and appointed ONeill as prime minister. The questions in the references seek the courts opinion on whether parliament had erred in any of its decisions or did anything outside of the constitution. The questions include whether or not the MPs seat becomes vacant when the MP is absent from three consecutive parliament secession, whether parliament had inherent power to elect a prime minister when the incumbent abandons the post, whether section 134 of the Constitution prevents the Supreme Court from making orders that dictate the duties of parliament and other relevant questions.

Rimbink Pato, a lawyer representing a party in one of the cases, said he supported the stand by Kua. Pato suggested that the fastest way to deal with all the cases was for the Supreme Court to establish a legitimate attorney-general and prime minister first before references were heard.
