RidicuList: Fanning the flames of Anderson's candle

Anderson got punked this week when he started reading the teleprompter, only to learn that he was the focus of Monday's RidicuList. The team let Anderson know they didn't like the smell of his basil-scented candle. If you missed the descriptions, just imagine what "Mario Batali's Croc" would smell like. Today, Mario had his say and so did Anderson. Now everyone in the newsroom knows what revenge smells like.

Family's forensic expert says Michael Brown was shot seven times

The Ferguson grand jury heard testimony today from Dr. Michael Baden. He is a forensics expert hired by Michael Brown's family to conduct an independent autopsy. Shawn Parcells assisted Dr. Baden and spoke to Anderson tonight. Parcells updated earlier findings that Brown was shot at least six times, now saying that he was hit by seven bullets.

The entire proceeding to determine whether Officer Darren Wilson will face an indictment is happening behind closed doors. Anderson discussed the grand jury proceedings with former federal prosecutors Sunny Hostin and Jeffrey Toobin, along with defense attorney Mark O'Mara.

RidicuList: 911 is not a dating service

Let's hope this is not a trend. In less than two weeks, two different guys, in two different states each called 911 and hit on the dispatcher. You have to hear these phone calls to believe them and luckily the RidicuList has both. You may also want to listen to Anderson's advice, "if you're drunk and looking for a date… don't call 911."

How did Rosetta land on a comet?

Mankind took another giant step in outer space today. A 220-pound lander that's about the size of a washing machine touched down on a comet 300-million miles from earth. The comet is just two-and-a-half miles wide and this accomplishment has been compared to catching a bullet. Anderson spoke to CNN Aviation Analyst Miles O'Brien and Bill Nye 'The Science Guy' about the more than ten years of planning that went into today's landing.

How the FDNY rescued the WTC window washers

Two men survived every window washer's worst nightmare. Their scaffolding collapsed, leaving them dangling hundreds of feet above the streets of New York City. It happened outside the 68th floor of one of the world's most famous addresses, One World Trade Center. Anderson breaks down the FDNY's heroic efforts that saved these two men.


Gerard McEneaney knows what it is like to work while suspended outside of skyscrapers. He is a field representative for the local window washers' union. He told Anderson that when one side of the scaffolding stopped moving the men likely had about two seconds to react.

Remembering Fouad Ajami

Viewers of AC360 will likely recognize Fouad Ajami. He was a frequent guest on the show and a Middle East scholar. He passed away last June.

Fouad's writings include some 400 essays on Arab and Islamic politics, US foreign policy, and contemporary international history. Today the Hoover Institution Press is releasing a collection of his essays in the book "This Arab Time."

We wanted to share one of those essays. Click here to read "The Making of Strangers - Muslims, Jews, and the Other 1492."

You can also watch some of Fouad's appearances on AC360:
