Weatherman vs Pelican - LIVE
Aussie weatherman Steven Jacobs didn't know one of his vocational hazards would be a pelican attack.
Broadcasting from the Taronga Zoo in Sydney, Jacobs was in the middle of his report recently when a pelican named Marnie began repeatedly biting his backside.
Jacobs, of Nine Network Australia, joked on "The Early Show" that he has no idea what provoked the behavior, but it could have been the fish he’d eaten the night before.

Shaquille O'Neall Conduct The Boston Pops
Shaquille O'Neal has done a lot of wacky things throughout his career, from attempting to rap to starring in the abomination known as Kazaam.
But Shaq, the music conductor? You betcha.
Last night at Boston's Symphony Hall, the Boston Celtic donned his finest black and white tuxedo and made his "conducting debut."
O'Neal led the Boston Pops Orchestra and the Tanglewood Festival Chorus in "Sleigh Ride" at the Holiday Pops Concert.
I gotta admit, this was much better than anything we saw when Shaq played a genie.
You can tell he's about 0.03 seconds from busting out laughing while he's conducting the orchestra.

How Lazy People Walk the Dog
This seems like an interesting idea. If your remote control car has a long enough range, you may be able to get it to walk your dog. This dog seems content on following his mechanical master.
The World's Largest Snake
Indonesian villagers claim to have captured a python that is almost 49 feet long and weighs nearly 990 pounds, a local official said.
If confirmed, it would be the largest snake ever kept in captivity.
Hundreds of people have flocked to see the snake at a primitive zoo in Curugsewu village on the country’s main island of Java.
Local government official Rachmat said the reticulated python measured 48 feet 8 inches and weighed in at 983 pounds.
The Guinness Book of World Records lists the longest ever captured snake to be 32 feet. The heaviest — a Burmese Python kept in Gurnee, Ill. — weighs 402 pounds, the book said on its Web site.

Hair in Flame at Diddy's Party
In case anyone needed further proof that Sean “P. Diddy” Combs knows how to throw a party, last night’s hotel room soiree in honor of his new album was officially, and literally, en fuego.
Not only did over 200 people show up — hotel managers at NYC’s The London maintain Diddy told them the guest list was capped at 20 — but things got really hot when one model’s hair caught on fire. According to UStream video of the event, the model was lounging (read: posing) in the hotel room’s jacuzzi tub when she leaned back over a candle and her head went up in flames. Rapper Fabolous, who was perched on the edge of the tub, was the first to spot the fire, and alerted the bathing beauty who screamed and quickly dunked her head in the water.

Incredible Ice-Hockey Goal
Oscar Milton, a 17-year-old center for Almtuna J20 in Sweden, didn't settle for imitation and went for the innovation in scoring an amazing goal: Lifting the puck onto his blade and tossing it off the back of the goaltender's mask in a game against Nacka of Stockholm.
The slow-mo replay of this goal, really captures what makes it an instant classic; well, that and the mini pile-on by his teammates after the tally. No wonder it was a goal of the year.

Singing Surprise at Airport
A T-Mobile advert filmed at Heathrow Airport was broadcast simultaneously across 80 TV channels - in a broadcasting first for the UK.
The three minute ad, in which thousands of passengers landing at London’s Heathrow airport were welcomed by a singing flash mob, aired across every commercial station in Britain at the same time.
An estimated 10 million people saw the touching T-Mobile commercial, which was filmed at Terminal 5 on Wednesday.
In the ad, bleary-eyed travellers were greeted by hundreds of happy people clapping and singing welcome home songs. Hundreds more onlookers joined in, including cabin crew, taxi drivers and baggage handlers.
T-Mobile’s Spencer McHugh said: “We all know what it can be like arriving at an airport after a flight.
“We thought that, just for one day, we should give travellers a welcome they would never forget.”

Miss of the Century
You wonder what goes through the minds of footballers sometimes - although it's pretty clear what Qatar's Fahad Khalfan was thinking after missing the easiest of open goals in the Asian Games against Uzbekistan.
You don't need to be an expert lip-reader to see the 18-year-old mutter 's***' under his breath as the camera focuses on his reaction after what can only be described as one of the misses of the century.
Taking advantage of a mistake by Uzbeki goalkeeper Timur Juraev, who flapped at the ball in the opening moments of extra time, Khalfan found himself almost completely alone inside the penalty area.
So, with the scent of glory in his nostrils, Khalfan takes a couple of touches until he's pretty much in the centre of the goal, two yards out.
The problem is the ball's not well placed for him to strike it with his favoured left foot.
'But no matter', he thinks, 'I'm only a couple of yards out so I'll use the outside of my boot.'
Oops. Cue ball hitting post and widespread bewilderment among team-mates and opponents alike.
A moment of panic insues as our Fahad realises his mistake - and that's when the camera finds him.
Yes, Fahad, 's***' just about sums it up.
The worst part about the whole episode was our hero's side ended up losing 1-0 after extra-time. Bet he wasn't a popular guy in the dressing room afterwards...

Chinese Construct Hotel In 48 Hours
Ark Hotel China - 15 floors in 48hours
Behold China's real estate boom, in time-lapse! It took just six days to build the Ark Hotel in Changsha. According to the video, no stationary cranes were used in construction and there wasn't single injury among the site's workers. Hat tip to Good
The finished building stood 15 stories and used prefabricated columns (the foundation was apparently already built). Better yet, because the building's parts were factory-built waste was minimized.
Demolition of Chimney
The former Ohio Edison Mad River Power Plant's 275-foot smoke stack crushes surrounding buildings as it falls the wrong way during its demolition Wednesday, Nov. 10.
“Oh no.”
Those were some of the last words heard before shouts to get back as the old Mad River Power Plant’s 275-foot tower toppled in the wrong direction about noon Wednesday.
The blasts should have sent the stack onto a cleared area directly to the east, but instead the tower crashed to the southeast.
No one was injured but the tower knocked down two 12,500-volt power lines and smashed a building housing back-up generators.
Russian Kids - On The Edge
A terrifying video of a death-defying group of teenagers walking out on a beam 900ft up is a hit online.
The one-minute clip shows one girl carefully edging out on an iron girder above a distant forest below.
But she is soon trumped by a blond-haired boy who smiles at the camera before pulling off an even more spine-tingling stunt.
He slides out on to the bar before standing bolt upright at the end with his hands on his hips admiring the view.
One fan wrote: "I got scared just looking at the video. They got balls."
But another asked: "Why in the hell would you ever want to do something so stupid and pointless?"
