Alison Carroll (1985) is an English gymnast and model and the official Lara Croft model from 2008. She was born in the London Borough of Croydon in England.
She has represented Great Britain as a professional display gymnast, and has performed in front of Prince Charles. She was also a children's gymnastics coach, choreographing the winning junior team at the British National Gymnastics Championships. Since 2007 she has been a registered model.

In August 2008 she was announced as the new Lara Croft model for the latest game, Tomb Raider: Underworld. At the time she was working as a receptionist at a golf club. Carroll replaced Karima Adebibe, who retired from the role earlier in the year.
She is the first Lara Croft model with gymnastic skills.

Swimming with Tigers

Tigers are known as the best swimmers of all the big cats with modified webbing between their toes to make their feet more like flippers. But The Institute of Greatly Endangered and Rare Species, or Tigers, near Miami, claims to have overcome the problem by encouraging both tigers and humans to swim together in a specially adapted pool. Traditionally, trainers have struggled to build an attachment with the largest of the big cats. Despite the apparent danger, the trainers are never at risk. They've found that in the water people and tigers are on a more equal footing. The hand-reared tigers are introduced to the water a few months after birth and the trainers then give one-on-one tuition to each of the animals while they are in the water.

Oktoberfest 2008 in Munich

The 2008 Oktoberfest Beer Festival starts on Saturday 20th September 2008. The Munich Oktoberfest, known by Germans as `Wiesn` is the biggest Festival in the world with over 6 million people attending the Oktoberfest Beer Festival over the 15 days of activities in Munich, Bavaria. The 2008 Munich Oktoberfest, the 175th, starts on Saturday 20th September and finishes on Sunday 5th October 2008. With the myriad of food and drinks offered during this sixteen-day festival, it's a good idea to learn German to be able to pronounce them.
