ODDITY : Swastika found in German forest
This photo was taken on November 14, 2000. The 60 x 60 meter swastika consisted of Larch trees in a Pine forest near the village of Zernikow (110 km Northeast of Berlin). It was only visible from the air a few weeks in the Spring and a few weeks in the Fall when Larch trees stood out in contract to the surrounding Pine trees.
These trees were planted in the 1930's by a local resident during Nazi times. They were largely forgotten until after the German reunification in 1992 when planes once again flew over the area.
ODDITY/SCARY : Giant marionettes
Now this is a puppet show. Pictures and movies can be found on this page but the explanation was found here.
Residents of Nantes, France woke to a space capsule crashed into a smoking pile of rubble in the central square of the city. Later that day, a giant animatronic elephant and entourage of the Sultan paraded into town to visit the mayor.
Then, on saturday, the capsule opened to reveal a giant animatronic girl who walked through the streets, mischievously sewed a row of parked cars to the street with a shipping Hauser rope, rode a scooter, and even asked that the crowd give her some privacy while she used the toilet.
This play went on all day -- the Giant and elephant slept curled together in a park -- for an entire weekend. People were completely involved in this fantasy, and you can only imagine the effect it has on the imaginations and passions of children.

Why did he do that? : Man provides photo for his own wanted poster
LONDON (Reuters) - A British man on the run from police sent a picture of himself to his local paper because he disliked the mugshot they had printed of him as part of a public appeal to track him down.
South Wales Police had issued media with the photo of Matthew Maynard, wanted by officers investigating a house burglary, as part of a crackdown on crime in Swansea.
When it appeared in the South Wales Evening Post, the 23-year-old sent the newspaper a replacement photo of himself standing in front of a police van. They obligingly printed it on the front page.
The police thanked him for helping them in their appeal, saying: "Everyone in Swansea will know what he looks like now."

WTF?!? : The anti-swine flu holy water dispenser
The terracotta dispenser, used in the northern town of Fornaci di Briosco, functions like an automatic soap dispenser in public washrooms -- a churchgoer waves his or her hand under a sensor and the machine spurts out holy water.
"It has been a bit of a novelty. People initially were a bit shocked by this technological innovation but then they welcomed it with great enthusiasm and joy. The members of this parish have got used to it," said Father Pierangelo Motta.
Catholics entering and leaving churches usually dip their hands into fonts full of holy water -- which has been blessed by a priest -- and make the sign of the cross.
But fear of contracting the H1N1 virus has led many in Italy -- where some 15 people have died of swine flu -- not to dip their hands in the communal water font.
"It's great," said worshipper Marta Caimm as she entered the church. "Thanks to this we are not worried about catching swine flu. It is the right thing for the times," she said.
Luciano Marabese, who invented the dispenser, said he did so out of concern that fear of swine flu was eroding traditions.
And he is now blessing himself all the way to the bank.
"After all the news that some churches, like Milan's cathedral, were suspending the use of holy water fonts as a measure against swine flu, demands for my invention shot to the stars. I have received orders from all over the world," he said.

LOL! : 10 Misspelled Tattoos
Nothing says forever like a misspelled tattoo.
That's probably a good thing, because if I were god, I'd be all over you. I hope God doesn't ever Juge ME, that sounds TERRIBLE!
The poor sap that inherited THIS tattoo was hoping for the phrase "Chi-TOWN", and ended up with "chi-Tonw. The customer was much wiser than the artist, and sued the shop.
Yeah man, you're such a rebel!
He's not awesome...he's SPECIAL, and NOT in that cool "short bus" kinda way.
Looks like it isn't just TOMARROW that never knows, 'cause right now I'm not too sure either.
This one actually makes me a little bit sad, because if it weren't for the horrid spelling, that would have been a GREAT idea for a tattoo!
This was supposed to read "Why not, everyone else does". Boy am I happy that I don't know exactly what he is talking about.
Oh, for crying out loud!
Too empty-headed to own an encyclopedia.
And with that, I give you 10 awesome tattoo bloopers.

WTF?!? : Effigy of Michael Jackson?
Michael Jackson appears in Ultrasound for one woman - Telegraph UK
The UK’s Telegraph reports that Abbie Drinkwater is convinced that her ultrasound contains an ‘effigy’ or a representation of Michael Jackson.
This is Abbies first child and incredibly, Abbie claims she learned that she was pregnant on June 25th, the day that Michael Jackson died.
Careful examination of the ultrasound does suggest a likeness of Michael Jackson in her womb, as part of her 17-week-old fetus.
Abbie told the Telegraph; “At first I couldn’t believe what I was seeing. It was quite a shock. I didn’t notice it at first as I was so excited about seeing my baby. It wasn’t until later when I was at home and just gazing at the scan picture that I saw Michael Jackson. I thought ‘wow!’ this is unbelievable”
“The likeness is amazing” she said.
Abbie, a lifelong Michael Jackson fan, says she will name the child Michael if it is a boy and presumably Michaela if it’s a girl?

WTF?!? : Fish found in boy's penis
A 2cm long fish apparently found it's way into the penis of a 14-year-old boy from India in a bizarre medical case.
The patient was admitted to hospital with complaints of pain, dribbling urine and acute urinary retention spanning a 24-hour period. According to the boy, the fish slipped into his penis while he was cleaning his aquarium at home.
Professor Vezhaventhan and Professor Jeyaraman, who treated the boy and later wrote a paper on the case, explained: "While he was cleaning the fish tank in his house, he was holding a fish in his hand and went to the toilet for passing urine. When he was passing urine, the fish slipped from his hand and entered his urethra and then he developed all these symptoms."
After detecting the fish in the boy's bladder, Vezhaventhan and Jeyaraman used a technique known as cystourethroscopy to insert a special set of forceps down the patient's penis. Unfortunately, the fish was just too slippery to grip, so they resorted to using a rigid ureteroscope with a tool attached that is normally used for removing bladder stones.
The fish the urologists removed, which Practical Fishkeeping believes to be a small member of the Betta genus, measured 2cm long and 1.5cm wide.
He was later admitted into counseling to help him overcome any trauma.

Fred reaches one million subscibers!
Make that one million and one Fred! Darkerstarz has signed on!
Congratulations to YouTube's most hyperactive star, the helium-voiced Fred Figglehorn, on the occasion of his Fred channel recording its millionth subscriber, the first YouTube channel to do so. What's even more amazing is that all this was accomplished in under one year.
A few Fred facts for the uninitiated (if there is such a thing): Fred is the creation of Lucas Cruikshank, a 15-year-old Nebraskan who was first spotted making videos with his cousins on the JKLproduction channel. His Fred channel is the fastest growing in YouTube history, featuring such smash-hit episodes as Fred Goes Swimming (23m+ views), Fred Loses His Meds (17m+ views), and Fred Goes to the Dentist (13m+ views).
Fred's high-pitched episodes chronicle the misadventures of a pseudo six-year-old, as he over-reacts to friends, family and schoolmates, events in his life, and the object of his non-reciprocated affection, Judy. Cruikshank releases his videos in traditional TV style, in 10-episode seasons that have become the schoolyard equivalent of must-see TV. His millionth subscriber joined the cult of Fred early in season three.
So congratulations Lucas/Fred on achieving this notable milestone in the history of online video. We're very impressed. Sadly, we can't promise that Judy will ever share our enthusiasm.
Best,
Mark Day
