A Man Spotted Himself . . . Randomly . . . In The Background Of His Fiancee's Childhood Disney Vacation Photo


Even though this REALLY stretches the definition of what does and doesn't qualify as "news" . . . it's an absolutely INCREDIBLE coincidence.


Alex and Donna Voutsinas are newlyweds in Boynton Beach, Florida. A few days before their wedding, they were going through their old family photos, and found one of Donna's family trip to Walt Disney World when she was just a little girl.


Alex looked at the background of the photo and spotted something incredible: A guy who looked like his FATHER.


They looked closer and realized it WAS Alex's father . . . and he was pushing a stroller with a baby ALEX in it. In other words, Alex was randomly in the background of his future wife's Disney World vacation photo.


It's even more of an incredible coincidence since Alex's family lived in Montreal, Canada, at the time, and happened to be taking a rare trip to Disney World. Once Alex was an adult he moved to Florida and met Donna at work.


-Donna says, quote, "I was glad he proposed before [we found] the picture, because I know that it was because he loves me and not because he thought it was meant to be, it was fate."


(Take a look at the photo. Donna is in the pink, posing with Smee from "Peter Pan" and her siblings. Alex's dad is the guy in the blue shirt pushing the stroller in the background) Story from NBC in Orlando.

Lead In YOUR Kids Fruit Drinks???


We hate to sound like terrible local news anchors here, but this works for them, so we're going to steal it: Something in your house might be POISONING YOUR CHILDREN.


But . . . unlike the local news, we're not going to make you sit around through 21 minutes of garbage and filler to find out what the SILENT KILLER is. It's fruit drinks and snacks. You're welcome.


According to a study by a nonprofit group called the Environmental Law Foundation, more than 85% of the fruit drinks and snacks they tested contained lead.


The state of California has some of the strictest laws about chemicals in food. In California, the "safe" threshold for lead is half of a micro gram per day.


More than 85% of the products tested in this study had at least one sample containing MORE lead than that.


Now . . . before you PANIC, remember that not every sample of every product was high in lead. So if your kid's eating one serving of a "dangerous" fruit cocktail every day, he probably won't be poisoned.


But you should stay informed on which products do contain lead . . . so you can make sure your kid isn't taking down TONS on a daily basis.

SUPER UNDERWEAR!!!


I don't know if I'm comfortable wearing underwear that's smarter than I am.


A team of scientists at the University of California at San Diego have invented the first-ever pair of SMART UNDERWEAR . . . a pair of men's briefs that can actually SAVE YOUR LIFE.


The underwear's brain is in its elastic waistband. That waistband contains an electronic biosensor that measures your blood pressure, heart rate and vital signs. If you're hurt, it can even release painkillers right into your body.


The project was funded by the U.S. military, so the first people who will get the smart underwear will be the troops. (I mean . . . it's not body armor . . . but at least it's something, right?)


Joseph Wang is the nano-engineering professor at UCSD who led the project. He says, quote, "[These] monitor the injury of soldiers. The goal is to develop minimally-invasive sensors that can locate and identify the type of injury."


Down the road, he thinks these could expand beyond the military, quote, "for remote monitoring of the elderly, alerting for any potential stroke, diabetic changes and [any] other biomedical scenario."


I wonder if they still work great after you have them long enough to wear HOLES IN THEM…if nothing else - at least it provides great air flow !

Who's PEOPLE's #1 Hottest Country Guy?


The special country issue of "People" magazine doesn't hit newsstands until Friday . . . but they're already promoting what's in the issue.


There's some stuff about MIRANDA LAMBERT and BLAKE SHELTON'S wedding . . . and the BROOKS & DUNN All-Star salute.


And then there's the yearly list of the hottest guys. TIM MCGRAW is on the cover as "country's hottest guy". We also found what is, supposedly, the rest of that list.


There are 25 names, and some of them are pretty obscure, so we grabbed 15 of the more familiar artists and listed them in alphabetical order. Check it out . . .

#1.) TRACE ADKINS

#2.) JASON ALDEAN

#3.) LUKE BRYAN

#4.) KRISTIAN BUSH (of Sugarland)

#5.) KENNY CHESNEY

#6.) BILLY CURRINGTON

#7.) TOBY KEITH

#8.) JOE NICHOLS

#9.) JAKE OWEN

#10.) BRAD PAISLEY

#11.) BLAKE SHELTON

Louis Vuitton Purse Drags Woman?


This is the kind of story that makes a guy say, "Why didn't she just let go of her purse?" and makes a woman say, "I totally get it."


On Tuesday, a 22-year-old woman was walking in downtown Edinburgh, Scotland, when a car pulled up next to her. (The woman's name wasn't released.) One of the three men in the car called out to her and she walked over.


When she got close, one of the guys reached through the window and grabbed her Louis Vuitton purse. The car sped off . . . but that bag is EXPENSIVE, and the woman wasn't about to let it go that easily.


For our male listeners, Louis Vuitton bags cost anywhere from $650 to several thousand dollars.


So she held on, DRAGGING behind the car, as they tried to shake her off. When the guy holding her purse realized she wasn't going anywhere, he decided to let go.


Somehow, the woman wasn't hurt badly, but she did go to the hospital to get treated for some minor injuries.


The police haven't caught the guys in the car just yet, but they're on the lookout for big Manley cross dressers without purses.

Which Cities Are The Smartest, And Which Are The Dumbest?


Now it's time to feel better about ourselves by calling other people dumb! An economist named Rob Pitingolo put together this list of the 52 largest cities in the U.S., ranking them from SMARTEST to DUMBEST.


-It's not a perfect list . . . he didn't go around and actually give I.Q. tests to people in these cities . . . it's entirely based on the number of people with college degrees per square mile in each of the cities.


The smartest city turned out to be San Francisco, with 7,031 bachelor degrees and graduate degrees per square mile.


The rest of the top 10 smartest cities are: New York City . . . Boston . . . Washington, D.C. . . . Seattle . . . Chicago . . . Minneapolis . . . Providence, Rhode Island . . . Philadelphia . . . and Miami.


And the "winner" for dumbest city is . . . Oklahoma City, with 159 degrees per square mile.


The rest of the bottom 10 are: Jacksonville, Florida . . . Birmingham, Alabama . . . Louisville, Kentucky . . . Nashville, Tennessee . . . New Orleans . . . Kansas City, Missouri . . . Memphis . . . Virginia Beach . . . and Indianapolis.

How Dangerous Is It To Be On Your Cell and Drive?

At this point, we all know how dangerous it is to use our cell phones while we're driving. But since 81% of us totally IGNORE all that and still talk while we're driving . . . here are even MORE stats about why it's the most dangerous thing we all do.


According to Dr. Amy Ship . . . who works as a physician at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston . . . 28% of all car accidents in the U.S. are caused by someone using a cell phone while driving.


And talking on a cell phone while driving is 400% riskier than driving undistracted.


Ship also says that talking on a cell phone in the car is about as dangerous as driving while you're drunk or drugged up.

Kelly Pickler - Misunderstood?


KELLIE PICKLER recorded her single, "Makin' Me Fall In Love Again", because she didn't want to be known as a man-basher. She says, quote, "When I first heard the song, that's where I was in my life, and that's where I feel like I am right now.

"So it was really cool to be able to have that positive, happy song 'cause I don't want to get the reputation of a man-basher, you know, where all I do is record songs that are about heartache, because, behind heartache, there was always once love.


"Right now, I am in that particular stage in my life, and so it's really cool to sing that song and feel it."

Hey Gold Diggers...


The Boston Consulting Group put out its annual report on wealth around the world . . . where they rank all of the countries based on their percentage of millionaires.

And the U.S. finished in seventh place. Even though we've got 4.7 million millionaire households . . . which is BY FAR the most in the world . . . that's only 4.1% of our households.

Singapore is has the most millionaires, percentage wise. It has a population of 4.7 million . . . and 11.4% of the households in Singapore are worth at least $1 MILLION.

The full top 10, based on percentage of millionaires, goes: Singapore, Hong Kong, Switzerland, Kuwait, Qatar, United Arab Emirates, United States, Belgium, Israel, Taiwan.

The countries with the MOST millionaires, not the highest percentage, are the U.S., Japan, China, the United Kingdom and Germany.

The number of millionaire households worldwide went up by 14% last year, to 11.2 million . . . that's about where the total was before the global recession.

Less than 1% of the households worldwide are worth at least $1 MILLION . . . but those households own 38% of the world's wealth.

HEY! Put Down That iPad!!!

I probably won't drop hundreds of dollars on the new iPad, but I've gone to an Apple Store to mess around with one. And . . . well . . . after hearing this I'm NEVER going to do that again.

The "New York Daily News" secretly swabbed the iPads on display at four different Apple Stores around New York City, and found they're just CRAWLING with the diseases and bacteria of everyone who's touched them before you.

Two of the iPads had the bacteria that causes staph infections . . . two had a type of nasty YEAST . . . and two had bacteria that cause nasty rashes. So . . . if you are going to touch them . . . WASH YOUR HANDS when you're done.

Put YOUR Face in Space!!!

NASA is giving YOU a FREEBIE!!!

Shania Is Single...Kind Of


SHANIA TWAIN is now completely unshackled from her guru (slash) ex-husband MUTT LANGE. According to "People", the necessary documents were filed this week in Switzerland that finalized their divorce.


They have one son together, eight-year-old Eja. (--pronounced Asia) There's no word yet on the custody arrangements.


Shania hasn't released a statement, and I doubt she will. She's notoriously private. But her friends are yapping away to "People" . . . mostly saying Shania's still deeply involved with her studly Swiss boyfriend, FREDERIC THIEBAUD.


Shania and Frederic were together last month at the Swiss Red Cross Ball and a friend who was there said, quote, "She was radiantly happy. Her happiness certainly shone through. They are a great addition to each other's lives."


Another friend added, quote, "Shania and Fred are a couple that fit together. Things are getting really serious with Fred." (above's a photo of Shania and Fred at the Swiss Red Cross ball . . .)

Melt Pounds Away? Na, FREEZE THEM AWAY!

Freeze it off! There's nothing we'd all love more than to lose a few pounds. The only problem is . . . we're also all very lazy. Which is why THIS just might be the best thing ever . . .


Last year, a handful of doctors started performing a procedure that's similar to liposuction, except it's non-surgical, and it doesn't require any recovery time.


It's called Cryolipolysis (--pronounced "CRY-OH-lie-PAHL-eh-sis"). It's a painless, non-invasive way to break down fat cells by FREEZING them off. A dermatologist named Dr. David Goldberg developed the procedure. He's tested it on 200 patients, and he says just a single three-hour "cooling" treatment can cause up to a 25% reduction of fat cells over the next two to four months.


It sounds amazing, right? But before you run out and drop $1,500 on it, there are a couple things you should know:

#1.) The FDA has NOT approved it as a fat remover. That doesn't mean you can't get it . . . it's perfectly legal if your doctor recommends it. It just means the FDA doesn't condone it.

#2.) It's NOT covered by health insurance.


Ya, I know you're thinking "no problem, I'll just buy a couple bags of ice and...". It's not that simple. There's a special process that ensures that you don't end up with frostbite or worse.
