Drops of water stay as spherical balls on top of the fabric and a sheet of the material need only be tilted by 2 degrees from horizontal for them to roll off like marbles.  Awesome! Didn't read the article but.....how do you wash it? dry clean it?

Actually, dry cleaning isn't dry. It's also a liquid, but it's a chemical bath instead of water with detergent.

New Jersey supermarket denies Adolf Hitler a birthday cake.It's one batshit crazy thing to name your kid Adolf Hitler (and Aryan Nation), but it's a whole other level when the father is "surprised by all the controversy the dispute had generated."

This isn't so much "weird news" as it is "really stupid news"
I just saw a report on an airport television about a study claiming that heavy metal may be detrimental to your health. Banging your head, according to the study, causes the loss of brain cells and could even lead to a concussion.
I imagine this report played during a concert. As it begins, the music stops, people stop moving, their chains stop swinging in the air and hang limp by their sides, a large sweaty man removes his leg from the smaller man beneath him and helps him stand up, and the singer spits out the head of the dove he had been chewing on. There is a collective gasp as brain damage is mentioned. The lead singer gurgles "dear god" as blood bubbles and rolls down his chin. The report ends, instruments fall to the ground with a crash, and every one orderly starts to file out the door.

Pennsylvania man shot for talking during a movie:http://www.comcast.net/articles/news-general/20081228/Movie.Noise.Shooting/PHILADELPHIA — A man enraged by a noisy family sitting near him in a movie theater on Christmas night shot the father of the family in the arm, police said.
James Joseph Cialella, 29, of Philadelphia, faces six charges that include attempted murder and aggravated assault. He remained in custody Saturday.
Police said Cialella told the man's family to be quiet, then threw popcorn at the man's son. The victim, whom television reports identified as Woffard Lomax, told police that Cialella was walking toward his family when he stood up and was shot.
Detectives called to the United Artists Riverview Stadium theater in South Philadelphia found Cialella carrying the weapon, a .380-caliber handgun, in his waistband, police said. Had this man been using a taser or something, I think I'd be on his side.

Ah, Devon's a hundred miles away. Makes me wonder what exactly you were searching for on the internet to come up with this story though, RAD.
