Body? What body?

The trick is in enforcement.

Sydney, Australia (Australia Correspondent)
   The Dee Why Grand shopping complex in Sydney has banned screaming children.  The shopping center has posted that "screaming children will not be tolerated and parent and child will be removed."  So who shops mostly at shopping centers?  I'm thinking moms. Yup, what could go wrong?

Numb ass awards in Sweden.


Stockholm, Sweden (AP)
   4 men and two women are going to share a $3000 prize.  These four folks successfully spent 48 hours sitting on ice poles with temperatures as low as -18 degrees F.  I figure these folk won the numb ass and dumb ass awards at one sitting.
