PORTLAND, Ore., July 23 (UPI) -- An Oregon man whose roommate "drunkenly" stranded his aerial drone on a rooftop used a camera-mounted drone with coat hanger hooks to rescue the smaller device. Harrisen Howes, who posted video of the rescue to YouTube, said his roommate took his small Syma x5c drone out for a spin and "drunkenly" lost it on a neighbor's roof, where it spent two months. Howes said a lack of rooftop access made the drone's rescue impossible until he upgraded to a larger drone, which he outfitted with a video camera and a pair of hooks made from coat hangers and green tape for the attempt. The video shows Howes successfully snare the stranded ...

PressTV/// Prisoners who study hard whilst imprisoned could be eligible for early release under new plans by justice secretary, Michael Gove. In what is being described as the first major speech on prison policies, Gove suggests inmates who work towards gaining qualifications in prisons could be allowed to leave earlier than planned under the “earned release” scheme.

The plans are expected to apply to 86,000 prisoners who are under automatic release once they reach the half way point of their fixed term sentences. Gove’s plans ...

Every time Sophie Loader, of Essex, England, has her period, she goes into labor for up to 72 hours. The 23-year-old has uterus bicornis, a rare condition in which she was born with two separate wombs, reports the Mirror. One womb functions normally, but every month, Loader’s second uterus fills up with blood, resulting in painful contractions similar to what she would feel when giving birth to a baby. The only thing that helps her cope is breathing exercises, reports ITV. "I've been in labor more than 100 times, but only once for real,” Loader, who has a 2-year-old son named Chase, said, according to the Mirror. “To say that it's a pain would be an ...
Wild article on a potential Pacific Northwest quake (An earthquake will destroy a sizable portion of the coastal Northwest. The question is when)

http://www.newyorker.com/magazin.../07/20/the-really-big-one Poster Comment:It has also been estimated that over the last ten thousand years a major quake hit at this fault every 250 or so years. Twenty or so years ago scientists figured that there had been a 9.0 earthquake centered in around Portland, Oregon in 1700; there have been no major quakes since then. It's gonna happen (1-in-3 chance for an 8 quake in the next 50 years, a 1-in-10 chance for a 9) and it's gonna be bad, in part because so many buildings were built before it was recognized that the Pacific Northwest was in a serious seismic zone. "Everything west of I-5 is going to be wiped out."
