Topless flasher mown down by car
By New Zealand correspondent Kerri Ritchie
A New Zealand woman who flashed her breasts at passing motorists distracted one driver so much he ran her over.
Cherelle Dudfield never meant to literally stop traffic.
She says she was egged on by a friend to flash her breasts at passing cars while standing in the middle of a road in the South Island city of Invercargill.
But the good times turned bad when one of the vehicles crashed into her.
The 18-year-old rolled over the bonnet, and cracked the windscreen, but luckily was not hurt.
Ms Dudfield pleaded guilty in the Invercargill District Court to one charge of disorderly behaviour.
The judge said the behaviour was dangerous and fined her $220.

Fugitive gives own mug shot to newspaper
A British man on the run from police sent a picture of himself to his local paper because he disliked the mug shot they had printed of him as part of a public appeal to track him down.
South Wales police had issued media with the photo of Matthew Maynard, wanted by officers investigating a house burglary, as part of a crackdown on crime in Swansea.
When it appeared in the South Wales Evening Post, the 23-year-old sent the newspaper a replacement photo of himself standing in front of a police van.
They obligingly printed it on the front page.
The police thanked him for helping them in their appeal, saying: "Everyone in Swansea will know what he looks like now."

Pilots in 'heated discussion' forget to land plane
Aviation officials in the United States are investigating why the pilots on an airliner with 150 people on board lost contact with controllers for an hour and flew more than 200 kilometres past their destination.
The two pilots of North West Airline's flight 188 told US Transport Safety officials they lost contact with Air Traffic controllers because they had become distracted during a heated discussion about airline policy.
Federal investigators are expected to review the plane's voice recorders to determine whether the crew were indeed distracted or whether fatigue had been a factor.
When the airbus A-320 failed to respond to air traffic controllers military authorities were alerted and fighter jets were put on standby status over fears of a hijacking.

Mayors on one-way street to head-on collision
Police in Paris are dealing with traffic anarchy after the mayors of two feuding suburbs declared the same busy street one-way - but in opposite directions.
There was chaos among bemused drivers at the point where the rival systems converged, with all traffic forced down one side road.
The confusion followed a decision by the Mayor of Levallois who wanted to introduce a one-way system to free up traffic through his borough.
Fearing an overspill into his district, the Mayor of Clichy, Gilles Catoire, brought in a one-way system running the opposite direction.
The local prefect, representing the French state, has issued a decree ordering the immediate return of two-way traffic in Clichy, accusing its Mr Catoire of provoking serious disorder.
Mr Catoire is refusing to back down, saying he will challenge the decision in court.

Novel published one tweet at a time
An American writer who failed to find a publisher for his novel is putting the book on Twitter - 140 characters at a time.
Matt Stewart, a San Francisco-based novelist, began "tweeting" his first book, The French Revolution, on the micro-blogging service on Tuesday (local time).
"As far as I can tell, I'm the first person to release a completed full-length literary novel on Twitter," Stewart wrote on his website, www.thefrenchrev.com.
"Loosely structured on the greatest identity crisis ever, The French Revolution tells the story of a San Francisco family forging its place in history," he said.
Stewart says putting the book on Twitter is a "social experiment" to "see how the world reacts to a long-form tale told in snippets."
He also acknowledges that he has been unable to find a publisher.
"My agent submitted The French Revolution to all the major publishing houses," Stewart said.
"Many of them loved it, but none were willing to buy what they viewed as a 'risky' novel - vivid language, elements of fantasy and farce, raunchy humour," he said.
Stewart says it will take approximately 3,700 "tweets" to transmit all of the 480,000 characters in his book.

Police clear street over kids' 'nuclear reactor'
Two six-year-old boys pretending to have built a mini nuclear power plant has prompted German police and the fire brigade to clear their street, authorities said.
The school children in the western town of Oelde had built the nuclear reactor mock-up out of a computer casing and taped a "radioactivity warning" they had printed out from the internet on its side.
"When the boys returned to their 'nuclear power plant' from a brief stop at home they were sent away again as the area and a wide radius around it had been cleared and blocked off," police said in a statement.
Residents were ordered not to leave their homes and firefighters tested for a radioactive leak.
The boys' parents thought the fire department was conducting a drill until they read about the operation online and what led to it.
They reported to the police station and explained their six-year-olds had not managed to build an actual nuclear reactor.

Killer SMS rumours sweep Egypt
The Egyptian Government has sought to dispel rumours that a mobile phone text message "from unknown foreign quarters" is spreading around the country and killing those who receive it.
The extraordinary move by Egypt's health and interior ministries follows press reports that an SMS containing a special combination of numbers killed a man in the town of Mallawi south of Cairo.
"He died vomiting blood, followed by stroke, shortly after he received a message from an unknown phone number," the Egyptian Gazette reported.
"The number begins with the symbol (+) and ends with (111)," it said.
An "official security source" was quoted by the official MENA news agency as denying that those who receive the SMS "get splitting headaches followed by brain haemorrhage that leads to death."
A statement from the health ministry quoted health officials in several regions as saying that they had "received no cases with such symptoms"
"These rumours contradict all scientific facts," the statement said.
Egypt's interior ministry has detained three workers at an oil company for allegedly starting the rumours "and they are now being interrogated," MENA said.

Police in Nigeria are holding a goat on suspicion of attempted armed robbery.
Vigilantes took the black and white beast to the police saying it was an armed robber who had used black magic to transform himself into a goat to escape arrest after trying to steal a Mazda 323.
"The group of vigilante men came to report that while they were on patrol they saw some hoodlums attempting to rob a car," Kwara state police spokesman Tunde Mohammed told Reuters by telephone.
"They pursued them. However one of them escaped while the other turned into a goat.
"We cannot confirm the story, but the goat is in our custody. We cannot base our information on something mystical. It is something that has to be proved scientifically, that a human being turned into a goat."
Belief in witchcraft is widespread in parts of Nigeria, Africa's most populous nation.
Residents came to the police station to see the goat, photographed in one national newspaper on its knees next to a pile of straw.

Barry Manilow music used as punishment
A US judge has hailed as a success a new form of punishment for people who go to court for being too noisy - an hour of listening to Barry Manilow or the theme tune from the children's TV show Barney And Friends.
Judge Paul Sacco said he decided to try something new after noticing that violators brought before his Colorado court for playing their stereos too loudly or disturbing neighbours with band rehearsals kept doing it again.
The usual practice of fining these offenders was not proving to be a deterrent, so he decided to give them a dose of their own medicine and make them listen to his musical selection at high volume for one hour.
"This is a way, when I look back, of teaching manners to people," Mr Sacco, a judge from Fort Lupton Municipal Court in Colorado, told Reuters Television.
He said his methods had cut the number of repeat offenders appearing in his court.

Malaysian man gets nut stuck around penis
Sunday the 31st of Aug 31, 2008
A Malaysian welder had to have a nut removed from around his penis after an attempt to lengthen it before he gets engaged next week went embarrassingly wrong, a news report said.
The nut got stuck on his penis following an erection, the Star newspaper said, forcing him to seek help at a hospital in southern Johor state.
Staff from the Sultanah Aminah hospital had to drain some blood from the penis and cut away a top layer of skin before the object could be removed, the newspaper said.
It said the fire and rescue department were also involved in trying to remove the nut from the unnamed welder, who is in his 20s and hoped the nut would weigh down his penis to make it longer.
"The patient is now recovering and we hope to discharge him today (Sunday)," hospital director Daud Abdul Rahim told the Star.
On August 25, another young man in Kuala Lumpur had tried to increase his sexual prowess by slipping a steel ring around his penis, forcing the fire department to cut off the ring after doctors were unable to remove it, the newspaper said.

Russian town puts breasts on a pedestal
A Russian town plans to unveil a monument that shows a man's hand gripping a nubile female breast, which officials say will bring "family happiness" to men who touch it, Russian media reported.
The monument will be opened to the public Saturday in Bataisk, a town of about 100,000 in the Rostov region of southern Russia, a spokesman for the Bataisk administration told the Interfax news agency.
"A bas-relief of a female silhouette has been made on a metal plate, with a man's hand on the breast. It is believed that if a man touches this bust, he will gain family happiness," the spokesman said.
Sculptor Anatoly Sknarin was inspired by a similar sculpture he saw in the red-light district of Amsterdam, the Moskovsky Komsomolets daily newspaper reported.

Shopkeepers warned of sheep in Queen's clothing.
The 6th of July 2008
New Zealand shopkeepers are being fleeced by fake 100 dollar notes featuring a sheep wearing a tiara in the place where Queen Elizabeth's portrait should be.
Police said the notes, which all bear the same serial number, were crude forgeries but some merchants in Rodney, near Auckland, where they were circulating, were taken in, the Herald on Sunday reported.
The Queen's tiara-wearing portrait features on all New Zealand bank notes.

Monumental enema for small town
Article from: 
By staff writers
July 03, 2008 08:44am
A TOWN in southern Russia has erected a monument in the shape of an enema to celebrate the famous medical procedure.
The bronze syringe bulb sculpture held by three angels was unveiled in the city of Zheleznovodsk, a region known for dozens of spas where enemas with water from mineral springs are routinely administered to treat digestive and other complaints.
Standing at 1.5m and weighing 400kg, the $44,000 sculpture was installed in a square in front of the Mashuk-Akva Term spa, with a banner declaring: "Let's beat constipation and sloppiness with enemas".
"There is no kitsch or obscenity, it is a successful work of art," said spa director Alexander Kharchenko.
"An enema is almost a symbol of our region."
The monument was designed with "irony and humour", said sculptor Svetlana Avakina, who modelled the angels on the works of Italian Renaissance painter Alessandro Botticelli.
Ms Avakina hoped to promote the sculpture as a brand and turn it into a franchise with souvenirs and awards for medical doctors.
"This device is eternal, it will never change," she said.

Manure thief falls into dung, flees naked
A woman trying to make "manure bombs" using stockings, slipped into a slurry tank and fled the scene naked, German police said.
Two women entered a farm in the northern village of Eberholzen on Wednesday evening and started to fill the stockings with manure.
"One of them slipped into the manure tank, right into the cow muck," said a spokesman for local police. "The other one helped her out. We found their clothes in a field. One seems to have run off completely naked, the other in her underwear."
Police said it was unclear what the women had intended to do with the "manure bombs", but added the incident could be linked to victory celebrations surrounding the Euro 2008 semi-finals on Wednesday evening, when Germany beat Turkey 3-2.
"The women can get their clothes back from the local police station - unwashed," the spokesman added.

Wolf whistlers wish - woman whips off woollies
Road workers in a small New Zealand town got their wish granted when a woman stripped, saying she was fed up with their wolf-whistles.
The Israeli tourist was about to use an ATM in the main street of Kerikeri, in the far north of the country, when the men whistled, the New Zealand Press Association (NZPA) reported.
She calmly stripped off, used the cash machine, before getting dressed and walking away.
The woman told police she did not take too kindly to the whistling from the men repairing the road.
"She said she had thought 'bugger them, I'll show them what I've got'," police Sergeant Peter Masters told NZPA.
"She gave the explanation that she had been ... pestered by New Zealand men. She's not an unattractive looking lady," Sgt Masters said.
"She was taken back to the police station and spoken to and told that was inappropriate in New Zealand."
