There’s a 40-year-old guy named Jermaine Nichols in Scarborough, and he called 911 recently because he needed to be RESCUED.\u00a0 Apparently, he was out hiking and got stuck on a steep cliff. But his phone died before he could give them his specific location.<\/p>\n
So firefighters and paramedics drove up the cliffs to hunt for him.\u00a0 And while they searched . . . he suddenly appeared, hopped into a fire truck, and tried to STEAL IT.<\/p>\n
But Police were also part of the rescue effort . . . so he was quickly stopped and arrested.<\/p>\n
He’s been charged with attempted theft and failure to comply.<\/p>\n

after ice gave way on the Tanana River in Nenana, Alaska.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Patricia Andrew predicted the ice would go out on April 14 at 12:21 a.m. Alaska standard time — making her the only contestant to guess the correct time.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n “She had no clue,” said Cherrie Forness, who runs the Ice Classic. “She probably didn’t remember what she put on her ticket.”<\/p>\n <\/p>\n This is the first time since 2013 the ice classic had only one winner.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n If no one chooses the exact time of the tripod falling into the water, the person who guesses the minute closest to the actual time wins.<\/p>\n _________________________________________________________________________<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/u><\/strong>\u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n RANDOM

<\/p>\n THERE’S A DOWNSIDE TO BEING ORGANIZED <\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n It’s very trendy to be organized these days, and that’s mostly a good thing. A 2013 study found that being in a tidy space drives people to make healthy choices and to follow “conventional” thinking, and working in a messy space creates creativity and new ideas.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Now Harvard University researchers say the desire to organize can be a sign of underlying mental angst or upset.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Study leader Martin Lang says his finding linked anxiety to the performance of repetitive, ritualistic behaviors, and that cleaning up and organizing definitely fits the bill. In a sense organizing is good, as it can bring a sense of comfort and control to those having a rough time, but on the flip side, spending a huge amount of time and energy organizing signals a problem.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Michelle Newman, a professor of psychology, adds, “Organizing becomes pathological when it\u2019s interfering with your ability to focus or function, or it\u2019s overly distressing.”<\/p>\n ______________________________________________________________________________<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/u><\/strong>\u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n PLEASE WAIT WHILE JAVA IS INSTALLED:<\/u><\/strong> <\/p>\n The new edition of a Psychiatric mental health manual includes a new coffee-related diagnosis: \u201ccaffeine withdrawal,\u201d which describes the symptoms of stopping or dramatically reducing one\u2019s daily coffee habit. It notes that the symptoms of caffeine withdrawal include fatigue, headache and difficulty focusing.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n A spokesperson says there is some logic to treating caffeine withdrawal as a type of mental health issue. Caffeine is a stimulant.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n However as one psychologist point out that a mental disorder diagnosis of \u201ccaffeine withdrawal\u201d should be made only if symptoms cause \u201cclinically significant distress\u201d or impair a person\u2019s daily functioning.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/u><\/strong>\u00a0____________________________________________________________________________<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/u><\/strong>\u00a0<\/u><\/strong>\u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n TUESDAY MAY 7TH<\/sup> \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n ——————————————————————————————————————————-<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Boston Bruins 3, Columbus Blue Jackets 0 —\u00a0Boston wins series 4 games to 2<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n Colorado Avalanche 4, San Jose Sharks 3 (OT) — Series tied at 3-3<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n MLB<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n Minnesota\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 8\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Toronto\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 0<\/p>\n Detroit had the night off<\/p>\n <\/p>\n A\u00a0Reds<\/strong>\u00a0\/\u00a0Giants<\/strong>\u00a0game was delayed by BEES yesterday.\u00a0 The swarm was so intense that all the players were called off the field, and play was suspended for 18 minutes.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n An Australian news teams was covering\u00a0the royal baby in the UK, when a little kid in the backseat of a car in the background flipped them off.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n __________________________________________________________________________________________<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Keith Urban Had to Take an Uber to a Show in Florida<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n KEITH URBAN<\/strong>\u00a0was forced to take an Uber to his show in West Palm Beach, Florida on Sunday.\u00a0 He was supposed to fly in but bad weather wouldn’t allow the plane to land so he ended up in Miami, about 75 miles away.<\/p>\n And he couldn’t get a small plane out of there either because planes don’t take off when there’s lightning . . . and that just kept coming.\u00a0 So, he took an Uber, and he got lucky because his driver was not afraid to put the pedal to the metal.<\/p>\n During the ride Keith downloaded an app that showed how fast they were going and it topped out at 103 mph.\u00a0 He was late, but at least he got there.\u00a0 When he hit the stage he told the crowd the story, and then thanked the driver.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n CHRIS YOUNG LAUNCHES TOUR WITH OVERSEAS SOLD-OUT SHOW<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n Chris Young<\/strong>\u00a0launched his\u00a0Raised On Country World Tour 2019<\/em>\u00a0in Manchester, England on Sunday (May 5th) with a sold-out show.
