Video: Very weird – magnetic boy
A Serbian family claims their son Bogdan is magnetic. Forks and knives stick to his body. So do plates. He can't go near computers or they stop working. I'm not sure what is going on, but it is just weird. Have a look:
Video: Judge jails man for ringing phone
A Kentucky judge just got fed up with phones ringing in his court. I guess they are calling him the "Hanging-up Judge" now. Have a look as he jails the phone ranger.
Video: Coach hits and kicks player during practice
Matt Kravchuk likely knew that playing with Holy Family University in Philadelphia was going to be a tough grind, but I'm guessing he didn't sign up for this. During a rebounding drill Kravchuk wasn't working hard enough for coach John O’Connor. O’Connor decided to "inspire" Kravchuk by knocking him to the ground and kicking him while yelling “get up!” Kravchuk – injured and bleeding, got up and went to the back of the line. O’Connor continued saying ”Got a little blood on ya? Good,” and then kicked him out of practice. O'Connor has been suspended. One hell of a coach.

Photo: Highest resolution image of the moon ever
OK, you've seen lots of images of the big pizza pie in the sky. But this one is extraordinary. It's the one of the highest resolution images of the moon ever made. It's actually a mosaic of 1300 separate images taken by the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter’s Wide-Angle Camera. The total size is an incredible 24,000 x 24,000 pixels. The images were taken over the course of two weeks in December 2010 by the LRO in a polar orbit around the Moon. Behold!
Dell marketing stunts ends with SWAT team
Image via WikipediaA Dell sales manager dressed in a biker costume complete with black mask while carrying two metallic objects. He then told people at Dell's Round Rock headquarters to "go to the lobby."
The Round Rock SWAT team responded to multiple 911 calls of a suspect inside of one of the Dell campus buildings. When officers stormed the place, they say one man refused to comply with officers. 11 minutes into the situation police finally determined the masked man and another man were part of an in house marketing plan but had not told anyone about it.
Now that's marketing! Sounds more like an episode of The Office.

Video: Catfight brawl at Denny's over syrup
I like my pancakes and like to use lots of syrup, but this is just plain ridiculous. Have a look at this mass brawl at a Kenny's in Chicopee, Massachusetts, when one group of girls asks the other if they could have some syrup. I guess they take their maple syrup real serious in Chicopee.

Video: Terrorist terrier goes on rampage on plane
A Manchester terrier went on a rampage on a US Airways flight after escaping from its cage, biting and injuring a passenger and flight attendant. After landing the dog and its 89-year-old owner were allowed to continue on another flight. I'm hoping they at least strip searched them both.

Video: 11-year-old boy arrested for stick figure drawing - led away in cuffs
An 11-year-old boy was arrested and hauled off in handcuffs for drawing stick figures in school, something his therapist told him to do. In a separate incident last October, he drew stick figures of himself with a gun, pointed at four other stick figures with the words "teacher must die." Bad boy – but sounds just a wee bit harsh on the punishment. Why not a public flogging while we are at it.
