	A team of researchers have planned an expedition to look for the legendary BigFoot in Michigan's Upper Peninsula next month.
	In Venice, Florida, a golfer nearly lost his arm when he reached into a pond to retrieve a golf ball and an 11-foot alligator pulled him in! He was hospitalized, but not seriously injured, and all of his limbs remain intact.
	In Chicago, a 4-year old girl called 911 dispatchers 287 times during the course of June using a deactivated cell phone. She would call as many as 20 times a day. Finally, authorities asked her what she wanted. She said she wanted McDonalds. They convinced her that if she told them her address, they would bring her McDonalds. After police arrived at the house-without McDonald's- the girl's mother took the phone from her.
	A satellite image of a Chinese nuclear ballistic missile submarine can now be seen on Google Earth.
	In Minnesota, a 6-year old girl had several feet of her intestines sucked out by a pool drain. She was able to extricate herself from the drain and was immediately hospitalized, where surgery to remove part of her intestines were immediately performed. This horrible incident is not the first of its kind; this is the third pool-related disembowelment since 1990.
	In a Witchita, Kansas, convenience store robbery, surveillance footage shows five people stepping over a woman dying of stab wounds. They continue to shop for snacks, and one even stops to take a picture on his mobile phone. The woman later died in the hospital from her injuries.
	In Rockford, Illinois, a woman with no hands or arms was refused service at a McDonald's drive-thru when she reached out the car window with her feet.
