That's what my friend said. He said if he was that coyote, after being next to the hot engine and scared of his mind, he'd be ready to bite some faces off. LOL

LIMA, Peru -- A Dutch man long suspected in the disappearance of an Alabama teen in Aruba was arrested Thursday in the murder of a young woman in Peru.
Stephany Flores, 21, was killed in a Lima hotel Sunday, five years to the day after Holloway disappeared.
The suspect, Joran van der Sloot, was escorted by three police officers as he was taken from a dark vehicle into a police office in downtown Santiago, Chile. He made no comment as he entered, walking calmly and without handcuffs as journalists shouted his name.
Guardia said the 22-year-old Dutchman was in Peru for a poker tournament and appears with the dead woman in a video taken at a Lima casino early Sunday. The two were later seen entering the hotel by one of its employees about 5 a.m. and the Dutchman departed alone about four hours later, he said.

Naked trampoline man avoids jail sentence
A man caught jumping up and down naked on a trampoline has avoided a jail sentence.
James Burden, 55, was spotted by a neighbour in the garden of his Falkirk home at 0500 GMT on 25 March.
Falkirk Sheriff Court heard Burden had his "manhood" in one hand and a cigarette in the other when the neighbour saw him. She called the police, and Burden was arrested and charged with shameless indecency.
Mike McMahon, prosecuting, said: "He told police he had gone out to the trampoline and had masturbated himself there." Asked why he did it, Burden told officers: "Just for the thrill of it." Asked why he looked at his neighbour's window, he said: "Because I had seen the light go on." He added: "I did not intend anyone to see me."
Burden pleaded guilty to a single charge of publicly exposing his person in a shameless and indecent manner, and approaching his neighbour's house and placing the occupant in a state of fear and alarm. He appeared for sentencing at Falkirk Sheriff Court earlier this month but attempted to withdraw his plea. Gordon Addison, defending, said his client now claimed to have "only pled guilty to avoid the embarrassment of a trial." Sheriff Caldwell refused to allow Burden to withdraw his guilty plea, saying he had confirmed it in court after months of legal advice, and placed him on the sex offenders register.
At the court appearance on Thursday, Sheriff William Gallacher put Burden on probation for a period of three years, and warned if he did not comply with the order, he may be "removed from the community." He said: "I have read the reports and you will be provided with the support that you need, and it is essential the community is not faced with this sort of behaviour again." |

Segway Boss Jimi Heselden Dies on Segway: Are Segways Safe?
Company Owner's Death Coincides With Research Examining Injuries From the Machines
Sept. 27, 2010
In a bizarre twist, James Heselden, owner of the company that makes the two-wheeled Segway personal transporter, died Sunday morning in a Segway-related mishap -- just before the scheduled release of a study suggesting injuries related to the vehicles may be on the rise.
According to a witness report, Heselden, 62, apparently fell off a 30-foot cliff into a river while riding a Segway near his home in West Yorkshire, UK. Police found Heselden's body and a Segway personal transporter in the river. He was prounced dead at the scene and foul play is not suspected, West Yorkshire Police told reporters.
A short statement posted on the Segway company website noted that Heselden "died in a tragic accident."
"Our thoughts go out to his family and many friends, who have asked for privacy at this time." |

Dead Teen's Classmates Discover His Brain in Jar
(AP) A Staten Island couple is suing New York City after the shocking discovery that their dead son's brain was on display in a jar at a city morgue.
Jesse Shipley was 17 when he died in a car crash in 2005.
Andre and Korisha Shipley said they had no idea his brain was removed during an autopsy until some of the teen's classmates at Port Richmond High School visited a morgue on a field trip.
While on the tour, the kids, who were members of a forensic science club, came across a jar with a brain floating inside and their dead friend's name on the label.

Calif. Candidate Mails Scratch-and-sniff Attack Ad
(AP) SANTA ANA, Calif. (AP) - Something stinks in Orange County. It's an attack ad mailed by Republican Congressional candidate Van Tran that paints a picture of incumbent Democratic lawmaker Loretta Sanchez as an insider politician. Tran's campaign manager George Andrews told the Orange County Register the mailer looks like a perfume ad and features a scratch-and-sniff patch that is supposed to smell like trash.
The ad says: "It's the stench of Washington."

TORONTO -- A frustrated Toronto Maple Leafs fan who threw waffles on the ice at the Air Canada Centre will have to admire his team from afar.
Joseph Robb was charged with criminal mischief and barred from the arena for throwing waffles on the ice at a Maple Leafs game to protest the team's performance this season. The 12-17-4 Leafs were 28th out of the NHL's 30 teams entering Wednesday's games.
Robb, of Oakville, Ontario, says he's "just a normal Leafs fan, I love them to death."
Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment vice president Bob Hunter says Robb's actions during Monday night's game against the Atlanta Thrashers were inappropriate.
He has also been banned from other MLSE events at BMO Field and Ricoh Coliseum.
Hunter says MLSE bars a dozen to two dozen fans a year due to misbehavior.

So, just to be clear, octopus = ok, hats = ok, waffles = immediate ban from arena. |

SAN FERNANDO, Calif. (CBS/AP) A California university professor is charged with peeing on a fellow professor's office door.
Prosecutors charged 43-year-old Tihomir Petrov, a math professor at California State University, Northridge, with two misdemeanor counts of urinating in a public place.
Investigators say a dispute between Petrov and another math professor was the motive (no kidding).
The Los Angeles Times says Petrov was captured on videotape urinating on the door of another academician's campus office. School officials had rigged the camera after first discovering puddles of what they thought was urine at the professor's door.

Police hunt for mother who smashed up shop and attacked assistants after they sold out of her favourite £2.20 cupcake

When having a bad day it can take just the tiniest incident to tip you over the edge - but this woman's fit of rage really takes the cake.
A mother trashed a cake shop after being told they had run out of her favourite flavour of cupcake.
With her children beside her, she smashed glass display units and threw cupcakes at customers after being told there were no more 'sweet tooth fairy cakes'.
She even attacked members of staff in her fit of rage.
Her reaction was so swift and dramatic, she did not even give staff time to tell her they could simply bake a fresh batch.
Police are appealing for help to trace the woman who fled with her two young sons at Sugarswirlz cake shop in Cardiff city centre.
The shop's owner, Sally Dodd, 43, said: 'The woman went absolutely ballistic when she was told we didn't have the cupcake flavour she wanted - it is called the sweet tooth fairy cake and is very popular.
'She didn't even wait for us to tell her that if she waited we could bake some fresh cupcakes for her.
'She threw herself on the floor ranting and raving while her children screamed and shouted.
'Then she came round to my side of the counter and grabbed me by the hair before I could get out of her way.
Sugarswirlz cake shop in Cardiff, South Wales. The woman inflicted around £400 worth of damage on the shop, which opened just two months ago
'I managed to tear myself free before the woman started smashing glass display units and spilling cakes all over the floor. I've never seen anything like it.
'You expect a certain amount of risk running a bar or a pub but not in a cupcake shop.'
The woman inflicted around £400 worth of damage on the shop, which opened just two months ago.
The £2.20 sweet tooth fairy cake, which has become a firm favourite among customers, is made out of an assortment of flavours and topped with candy floss.
Police were yesterday trying to trace the woman, aged between 35 and 45, with shoulder-length strawberry blonde hair.
The 5ft 3in well-built woman was wearing a mid-length green coat.
Detectives are hoping that CCTV cameras will help to identify the woman who is believed to be from Newport, South Wales.
A police spokeswoman said: 'We are investigating an incident of actual bodily harm.
'Officers were called after a 43-year-old woman was assaulted and damage was caused to the premises.'
Det Insp Noel Harris said: 'This was an unprovoked incident which caused a great deal of distress to the victim.
'There were several witnesses at the scene and we would ask anyone with information who hasn't spoken to the police already to please contact us.' |

Showering Home Intruder Calls 911 on Homeowner
| Quote: |
A man called 911 to say there was a burglary in progress and he wanted police to come protect him. The caller, however, was the alleged intruder.
Timothy James Chapek, 24, had allegedly broken into a home in Portland, Ore., and was taking a shower in the house when the woman who lived there returned about 7 p.m. Monday, according to police.
Chapek leaped into the bathroom, locked the door and called 911. "I just broke into a house and the owners came home...I think they have guns," he told the operator according to the 911 audio tapes.
He goes on to tell the operator that he has no idea where he is.
"I'm up in the hills," he says.
When asked what his name is, he grows quiet, saying the homeowners can hear him. The homeowner, Hilary Mackenzie, can be heard confronting Chapek. Her two German Shepherds can be heard barking during the call.
Mackenzie asks, "Why are you in my house taking a shower?"
Chapek responds, "I broke in. I was kidnapped."
He tells the homeowner his name. When Mackenzie tells Chapek that she's calling the police, he says, "I've already called them. They're on the phone right now."
Mackenzie calls the authorities anyway, standing on the front porch wearing slippers and no coat and even laughing at time about the man who broke into her house.
"I said who the hell are you and he said Timothy something...He said he broke in and he was kidnapped and he was taking a shower," she tells the 911 operator.
Chapek told police that a group of men had kidnapped him and put him in the bathroom, according to a police report.
Mackenzie and her daughter had returned home fron running an errand at the grocery store Monday night when they heard a man's voice coming from their first floor bathroom, according to the police report.
The bathroom windows were fogged up and a towel was thrown over the stall of the shower. Chapek still had a wet head from his shower, according to the police report.
Mackenzie, in her own call to 911, said that her daughter first thought there was an intruder.
"My daughter said you know I hear a man in the house, I thought, oh no, don't be silly," she told the 911 operator.
Mackenzie told the 911 operator that Chapek was "obviously nuts."
"We dispatched a number of officers including our K-9 unit and went into the house and found him in the bathroom," Sgt. Pete Simpson from the Portland Police Department said.
"Based on what I learned last night, maybe there's some issues with mental health or substance abuse or both," Simpson said.
It's unclear if Chapek was intoxicated at the time.
Chapek was booked into the Multnomah County Jail last night and was released today. He will be charged with a misdemeanor for criminal trespassing, police said.
Chapek did not manage to take anything from the home.
"It appeared more as though he wasn't intent to steal...he just wanted to take a shower," Simpson said.
Chapek has an extensive criminal record for non-violent crimes, police said. He was arrested as recently as late January. |

'Cowgirls Abandon Mares for Stick Ponies in Herpes Outbreak
Even cowgirls get the blues. The contestants in a Utah rodeo queen contest had to abandon their mares and ride toy stick ponies -- all because of an equine herpes outbreak.
"It's kind of weird, but you can't really help that the disease is going around," said Savanna Steed, 15, of Far West, Utah, a former queen who has been riding and competing since she was 4.'
haha, very appropriate name
