Thanks, aomagrat, for today's history of the weird ship, Sao Paulo. No matter how hard I try, I still wonder about the Bermuda Triangle and its secrets.

Shut up and have fun! On "Silent Night," Charleston (S.C.) RiverDogs fans duct-tape their mouths while trying sit through nine innings in silence and break a 94-year-old record for quietest game. Blabbermouth Sarah O'Brien (center) nearly ruins it for everybody.

Whirlwind approach: A waterspout hovers in the distance as Hurricane Claudette advances toward the Texas Gulf coast at Galveston. One brave -- or foolhardy -- fisherman decided to get a few casts in before the storm hit.
