CHICKASHA, Okla. — A suspected thief was taken into custody after allegedly trying to conceal a stolen chainsaw by stuffing it down his pants as one would a candy bar, according to local news reports. Police say 21-year old Anthony Black was eyeing an Echo chainsaw, but decided that a grab and dash wasn't in the cards.
The man, who police say appeared intoxicated, took the mechanical saw from the wall and put it down the front of his pants instead, according to NBC affiliate KSHB. While some employees initially thought Black — who by this point was walking with a noticeable waddle — was handicapped, others were suspicious. George Graham, an employee at the Ross Seed Company, witnessed the incident, telling NBC affiliate KEOR, "I seen the bar between his legs. It was pretty obvious. Imagine it in the front of your pants." "This is a little unique, simply because of how large the item was," Chickasha Police Assistant Chief Elip Moore explained. Paul Horton, the hardware store's manager, told KEOR it was "the first time I've ever seen a chainsaw go down anyone's britches." A limping Black was eventually chased from the store, ditching the chainsaw in the process. A short pursuit ensued, with the suspected thief diving headfirst into a creek, police say. Authorities fished Black from the shallow water, placing him under arrest.
"He could have cut himself up real good. He'd have been walking with a permanent limp," Graham explained. The chainsaw in question was eventually returned to the store. NBC affiliates KSHB and WAGT contributed to this report.

Facebook Cigarettes: Now Even More Addictive!
February 23rd, 2011 . By Eran Abramson
As if Facebook hasn’t been addictive enough for many teens, adults and other Internet users, a new concept surfaced which introduces the Facebook Cigarettes.
Designed by Stefan Kostic, the Facebook Cigarettes will probably way more addictive then the Social Network and could prove extremely harmful. In fact, the pack itself states on it…”sign up and die”. Is that a Poke at Facebook itself or simply stating the obvious about cigarettes?
There have been some other Facebook “products” that have been released in the real world which fans may enjoy, such as the Facebook Mug, the Like or Dislike Stamps and a really sweet concept called Facebook Chocolate.

When Man's Best Friend Is Obese
By Gwendolyn Bounds
Pets Are Getting Fatter; Owners Find It Tricky to Count Kitty Calories, Cut Kibble
For 12-year-old Buffy of Calabash, N.C., the trouble began with too much steak (and chicken and ice cream) at dinnertime. In nearby Ocean Isle Beach, six-year-old Hershey harbors a fondness for beef and cheese snacks. And 14-year-old Fridge of Longwood, Fla., gets cranky if his bowl isn't full.
The main culprit: owners who routinely overfeed pets, don't exercise them enough and are unaware of the severe, and costly, health problems caused by excess weight. Common woes include diabetes, arthritis, kidney failure, high blood pressure and cancer. Research also suggests that pets fed less over their lifetime can live significantly longer.
Now, new efforts are afoot to stem what many vets believe is the single most preventable health crisis facing the country's 171 million-plus dog and cat pets. They include software for doctors to track a pet's "Body Condition Score," a blood test that could quickly determine animals' body-fat percentage, Weight Watchers-type pet diet plans and doggie treadmills.
"Obesity in pets is almost the equivalent of smoking in human medicine," says Steven Budsberg, director of clinical research at the University of Georgia College of Veterinary Medicine. "There's the high cost to people, and it's self-induced. I never met a German shepherd who could open the refrigerator or food bag and pour himself another bowl."

To keep a healthy weight, Folsom, Calif., beagle Daisy Mae gets walked three to four miles several days a week.
In 2010, pet owners holding insurance policies with Veterinary Pet Insurance Co. shelled out $25 million to vets for obesity-related conditions, such as ligament ruptures (about $860 to treat), disc disease ($649) and asthma ($163). At Petplan USA in Philadelphia, five of the top insurance claims all have a close correlation to obesity.
When Cindy Nunes and her husband Joe of Folsom, Calif., adopted their beagle Daisy Mae, she was 41 pounds, suffered abdominal pains and couldn't roll over. Through a special high-protein and fiber, low-fat diet that's down to one cup a day, Daisy Mae has dropped to a more normal 29 pounds and walks three to four miles several days a week. Ms. Nunes estimates she's spent upwards of $1,800 in the past two years treating Daisy Mae...

Man shot dead for eating popcorn too loudly during Black Swan
A man was shot dead at a Latvian cinema after eating his popcorn too loudly during a screen of Black Swan, according to reports.

Police said they had arrested a 27-year-old man suspected of shooting a 42-year-old fellow audience member who later died of his wounds.
The conflict took place as the credits rolled during a screen of the Oscar-nominated film "Black Swan", according to police in the Baltic state.
Witnesses told the Latvian news agency Leta that it arose over how loudly the deceased man was eating his popcorn.
Gun-crime is relatively rare in Latvia, a European Union nation of 2.2 million.
The shooting occurred on Saturday evening in the central multiplex cinema in the Latvian capital, Riga, at the end of the psychological thriller about a ballet dancer who loses her mind succumbing to pressure to perform.
