US dinner ladies say they have found an image of the Virgin Mary on a pizza dish.
The staff at a school in Houston, Texas, first spotted the mark on Ash Wednesday and unsuccessfully tried to scrub it away.
Worker Guadalupe Rodriguez said: "On the third rinse I started watching it, trying to discover what it was. It appeared to me to look like the Virgin Mary." Now people are flocking to the makeshift shrine to see the divine vision.
One pupil revealed: "They said, ‘The Virgin is in the cafeteria’ and I ran over there to see. My God, it was the Virgin. I cried when I saw her with my own eyes." The school’s principle says they have been blessed with the image.
Lyda Guerrero said: "I think someone is watching over this community and this school district and this school."

A German man caught speeding has blamed his bored pet cockatoo.
Walter Konehauser, 45, who now faces losing his licence, says he wanted to cheer up his bored bird and decided to take him for a drive.
Walter said: "She was bored at home and I wanted to take her for a ride." He was stopped by police while doing 60mph in a 30mph zone in Augsburg and now faces dangerous driving charges.
A police spokesman said: "He should have had the bird in a cage, but when he was stopped it was flying around the car, and could easily have obscured his vision, causing an accident, or caused him to miss important signs like the one telling him to slow down."

Britain’s oldest worker used Kung Fu to fight off a gang of muggers.
Buster Martin, a 100-year-old World War II veteran from South London, was confronted by three teenagers as he was leaving a pub.
When they tried to steal his wallet, Buster demonstrated his terrifying martial arts moves and sent the attackers fleeing empty-handed.
Buster, who is a car washer-and-mechanic, said: "They thought I was an easy target but they didn’t realise what a fighter I can be. They pushed me against a wall and tried to take my money.
"I went mad, I pushed one and Kung Fu kicked another one between the legs.
They ran off scared and I kept my money." Buster, who hasn’t taken a day off sick in 80 years, came to work the next day despite having a bruised rib.

A Bulgarian football fan wants to change his name to Manchester United.
Marin Levidzhev, from Veliko Tarnovo, has spent two years pursuing his case in court and is now legally allowed to call himself Manchester Levidzhev.
Local magistrates stopped him from changing his surname to United, ruling that being an ardent supporter of the English club is not a good enough reason.
Levidzhev said: "I feel as if I am only at the half-time break. I won’t feel right until I get my name changed to Manchester United.
"I love the club. It’s my whole life and I want my name to reflect that." He now plans to take his case to a higher court.

Chinese scientists have invented a remote-controlled pigeon.
The designers steer the Robo-pigeon by sending commands via a computer to electrodes implanted in the bird’s brain.
The electrodes then send electrical signals telling the pigeon which way to move.
Su Xuecheng from the Shandong University of Science and Technology said: "It’s the first such successful experiment on a pigeon in the world." Animal rights campaigners were not impressed with the experiment.
A spokesman for PETA: "Pigeons are not inanimate remote-controlled toys.
Manipulating the brains of animals is cruel."

A US city is to make it illegal for dogs to bark excessively.
Clifton City Council, in New Jersey, will introduce a law against noisy canines later this month.
Owners could now face a fine of $250 if their dog barks for more than 30 minutes on two consecutive days.
Council officials say existing nuisance and "noise laws that can be used to address annoying and disturbing noises such as constant barking" are too difficult to enforce, and they need stricter guidelines.
Last year, the city Heath Department sent 11 letters warning owners they could face a court summons if their dogs continued to cause a disturbance.
However, summons rarely materialise as the person complaining must also go to court to sign a complaint.

Show creator Ryan Murphy has invited the Oscar-winning actress to guest star and has even started writing an episode for her.
Ryan said: ‘I was talking to Nicole recently and she said, ‘I want you to write me a part in ‘Nip/Tuck’.’ So I think I’m going to write a part where she comes in and she’s wearing that Virginia Woolf nose. She’s hilarious and I love her.’ The 39-year-old actress won an Oscar for her performance as writer Virginia Woolf in ‘The Hours’ for which she wore an large prosthetic nose.

The 48-year-old confessed she turns to Guy for style guidance and seeks his approval when it comes to fashion.
Madonna told Elle magazine: ‘I try my designs out on my husband - I put on an outfit and say, ‘Do you like this?’ and he says, ‘Oh yes, that’s cool.’ ‘I think he pretty much approves of how I dress. Although once he said, ‘I like the dress you’re almost wearing.’ Madonna insists she also has input in what Guy wears and prefers it when he dresses smartly.
She said: ‘I like it when my husband wears suits and I tell him that on a regular basis. He is very obedient in the clothes department!’ Madonna, who is set to launch a fashion line with high street retailers H and M, can’t understand why anyone would want to wear something they bought a year ago.
She added: ‘I don’t want to look back. Who wants to wear last year’s clothes? There are too many things to buy!’
