San Diego Chargers kicker Nick Novak had an embarrassing moment during a game against the Denver Broncos when footage of him urinating was aired on TV. CBS cut to footage of Novak on the sidelines during the fourth quarter of Sunday's game, which was tied 13-13 at the time, to accompany a conversation about the kicker between booth announcers Ian Eagle and Dan Fouts. However, instead of seeing the kicker preparing for the possibility of a field goal attempt, viewers were treated to the spectacle of Novak relieving himself next to the team's bench while someone held a towel to give the kicker a small amount of privacy. Novak later missed a 53-yard field goal and the Broncos took the game by 3 points.

An overzealous cleaner accidentally destroyed a piece of art worth more than $1 million when she removed what she thought was a "stain" from the installation. Martin Kippenberger's "When it Starts Dripping from the Ceiling" remains in place at the Ostwall museum in Dortmund, Germany, despite the damage sustained earlier this month when a cleaner scrubbed away the painted puddle beneath a rubber trough placed under a stacked tower of wooden slats. The work by Kippenberger, a German-born artist who died in 1997, was on loan to the museum from a private collector who agreed that it should remain on display despite the incident. In the meantime, insurance adjusters are assessing the damage. It has not yet been decided whether the patina would be restored, or if the artwork would be left in its newly "cleaned" condition.
