Special delivery. Police Sergeant Steven Rocher helped deliver a woman’s baby on the streets of Philadelphia early Christmas morning. He discovered the woman lying on the sidewalk near a bus stop about to give birth. The baby’s father was with her. After safely delivering the baby, Rocher called for a police car to take the parents to the hospital along with their new baby girl.

Small-print Bible. Israeli scientists have inscribed the entire text of the Jewish Bible onto a space less than half the size of a grain of sugar. The nanotechnology experts at the Technion institute in Haifa say the text measures less than 0.01 square inch surface. It may not take up much space, but in order to read this Bible you will need exceptionally good eyesight and know how to read Hebrew.

Loose change adds up. Paul Brant bought his brand new Dodge Ram half-ton pickup truck using spare change that he collected in bottles and cans. He was escorted by sheriff’s deputies as he brought nearly $26,000 in rolled coins to the dealership to make the purchase. It was not the first time. In 1994, he bought a Dodge pickup and a Dodge Neon using about $36,000 in quarters.
