Jim Goldman of Illinois, USA, born without arms, has developed incredible foot-based dexterity. He hunts, fishes, shoots basketballs and even throws knives with his feet! One big storm! On Dec. 5, 2010, a storm developed on Saturn that quickly grew to 8 times larger than the entire surface of planet Earth!

Is Jim Goldman a victim of Thaliomade-a pill to prevent morning sickness in pregnant women back in the early 60’s. It caused severe birth defects similar to Goldman’s. I applaud the courage of these victims.
