Pictures at an Exposition - 12
Everyone knows the procedure. As a prize, the winner will have his or her name submitted as consideration for the Order of St. Sylvester. However, if the winner has his or her heart set on the Equestrian Order of the Holy Sepulcher of Jerusalem, I will see what I can do. No promises, however.

The Vatican will not be bestowing any orders, as this week's picture failed to get a response. It's hard to believe everyone had the discipline not to respond to a boy with a large iron skillet stuck to his chest.
Ladies and gentlemen, we give you Magnetic Boy: six-year-old Ivan Stoilikovic from Koprivnica in Croatia. His family claim that when he takes off his shirt, metallic objects such as spoons, mobile phones and even frying pans stick to his body. In total, his family says, he can carry up to 25kg of metal stuck to his torso.
And that isn't the end to Ivan's unusual talents. According to his family Ivan has also used his 'healing' hands to alleviate his grandfather's stomach pains and take away the pain of a neighbour who hurt his leg in a tractor accident. Ivo, Ivan's grandfather, said when his grandson laid his hands on his stomach they became extremely hot and the pain simply went away. If that wasn't enough, Ivan, it is also claimed, is much stronger than other children his age and is able to easily carry bags of cement as heavy as 50lbs.
I have to give another picture. I picture is worth 1,000 funny words.
