A Romanian news reporter is making some news of his own after getting caught on camera recreating a sand storm he was unable to capture live.

For emphasis, a production assistant was ordered to kick some sand in the direction of the camera, but miscommunication with the cameraman led to his makeshift sand storm getting caught in the frame. That didn't stop the assistant, who diligently kept punting away for the remainder of the report.

WACKY-BUT-TRUE: MAN SAYS HE WAS TOO DRUNK TO REMEMBER HE WAS TRESPASSING _ A Fort Walton Beach, Florida, police officer saw a group of people sitting on a park bench.

A San Francisco man is suing BMW and motorcycle seat manufacturer Corbin-Pacific for general negligence and product liability because he continues to have an erection following a motorcycle ride nearly two years ago. In a claim filed last week, Henry Wolf said he rode his 1993 BMW motorcycle — which has a Corbin-Pacific seat — in San Francisco on May 1, 2010. The ride lasted two hours each way to and from his destination, and after the ride he developed "a severe case of priapism," a persistent and painful erection. According to the claim, Wolf "now suffers from priapism and has been experiencing continuing problems since his motorcycle ride." The claim states he is "now unable to engage in sexual activity, which is causing him substantial emotional and mental anguish."
