Question Boredom on the flightdeck

Does anybody know of incidents/ accidents that have occured due to boredom on the flightdeck (other than those cited in the Naked Pilot). I.e. pilots playing with switches, altering configuration unnecessarily etc. Or maybe lack of concentration due to reading the newspapers instead of approach plates.

This info is to form part of a presentation I am due to give as part of my ATPL
groundschool training.

Thanks
