I came across an interesting article which got me to thinking more generally about kid's psychology.  The article was about a school lunch program which found that kids ate more vegetables when they were given cool names. A study of 186 4 year old children were given veggies renamed as "X-Ray Vision Carrots" and they ate twice as much as they normally did.

International escape artist Curtis Lovell II successfully escaped being buried alive in the City of Grand Terrace, California.  Lovell has release the footage of the escape on Youtube.  Lovell's feat echoed an escape by the great Harry Houdini.  In 1926, Houdini was shackled and lowered into a grave.  Dirt was poured onto him.  When he escaped alive, he vowed never to attempt such a stunt again.  He died on Halloween 1926, this time not returning from his grave.
