What’s crazier than jumping from the top of a building into a snowbank?

Movie Not Starring Jim Carrey
The airline passenger who wore a very realistic mask to get past security was just the start. Now it’s bank robbery: Masks so realistic they’re arresting the wrong guy
A white bank robber in Ohio recently used a “hyper-realistic” mask manufactured by a small Van Nuys company to disguise himself as a black man, prompting police there to mistakenly arrest an African American man for the crimes.
From the manufacturer:
“We’re proud of the fact that our masks look real, but I’m not proud of the way they were used,” said Slusser, a 39-year-old former makeup artist. “We’re very embarrassed this has happened. We were shocked that this happened.”
Shocked. Shocked. Yes, Captain Renault is shocked.

Computer Calculates April 11 1954 Most Boring Day In History
“For fun we wrote the program and set it going. When the results came back the winner was April 11 1954 – a Sunday in the 1950’s. Nobody significant died that day, no major events apparently occurred and although a typical day in the 20th century has many notable people being born, for some reason that day had only one who might make that claim: Abdullah Atalar – a Turkish academic.”
“The irony is though, that having done the calculation, the day is interesting for being exceptionally boring, unless that is you are Abdullah Atalar!”

Radioactive rabbit trapped at Hanford
Workers first found contaminated rabbit droppings last week in the 300 Area, said Todd Nelson, spokesman for Washington Closure Hanford, the Department of Energy contractor cleaning up Hanford.
Several rabbits were trapped and the one was found to be highly contaminated with radioactive cesium.
I wonder what superpowers (of a non-breeding nature) you would get if bitten by a radioactive rabbit?
