From the wire:
A sparrow knocked over 23,000 dominoes in the Netherlands, nearly ruining a world record attempt before an exterminator shot it dead today. Only a system of 750 built-in gaps in the chain had prevented the bird from knocking most or all of the dominoes over ahead of schedule, Domino Day organisers were quoted as saying by the NOS news agency. The bird was shot by an exterminator with an air rifle while cowering in a corner.
