Lighthouse, lobster, sail parade

Lighthouse 'bagging' (visiting) proves popular. This is useful for a little project I've got in the works.


An undisclosed number of German Shepherds [is] being trained to jump out of airplanes at 25,000 feet. How.... useful.


Stabbed policeman and dog return

The knifeman is charged with two counts of wounding with intent to do grievous bodily harm (emphasis mine). Suck on that, evildoer! No stabbing doggies!


Big lobster proves popular catch (article/vid)

I don't remember if I linked this back in June... adorable. (vid)


Lab animal numbers continue upward trend. >:(


Tall ships arrive for sail parade (vid)

I've been covering this for a couple of days last week and yesterday on the Liverpool '08 site. Lots and lots of tall ship films.


Time-lapse film of Earth's moon (vid) which is awesome because it's from 31 MILLION miles away, dude.


Does anyone here like PARROTS? (vid)


I've just been presented with a card and a doughnut party by my coworkers. D'aww, you guys, you'll make me blush.

Lighthouse bagging? Never heard of it actually. *innocent look* Well, ok, I didn't know of the term for it.

Must one go to the top of a lighthouse for it to count? I've only done that once, and the narrow spiral staircase freaked me out.

Michigan has only 116 lighthouses (according to the book) but then it's only a state, not two countries with many centuries of maritime history.

It's true, I rather associate you with lighthouses now.

I hadn't heard the term 'bagging' before, either. Knowing journalists' tendency to look at any kind of hobby with slightly bemused incomprehension, it could be they've misunderstood it, or taken it to be an official term when it isn't.
