The Michigan Court of Appeals has ruled that a Battle Creek man who was convicted of sodomizing a sheep will not have to register as a sex offender when he is released from prison.
Jeffrey Haynes, 42, was convicted in 2006 of sodomy after it was determined he'd had abused a Bedford Township rancher's sheep. He is currently incarcerated in the Parr Highway Correctional Facility in Adrian.
Haynes was caught in 2005, after the rancher noticed his sheep were injured and became suspicious. Haynes was arrested after trespassing on the man's ranch in January, 2005. DNA taken from the sheep matched Haynes, and he later pleaded no contest to sodomy charges. A no contest plea is tantamount to an admission of guilt.
Does thinking make us fatter?
Angelo Tremblay noticed something odd every time he worked up a grant application for his research program in a Quebec university. He had a craving for chocolate chip cookies.
Now, thanks to research in his lab at the Universite Laval, he has a better understanding of why. It turns out that performing mental tasks, like trying to solve problems while working at a computer, stimulates the appetite so much that people tend to eat significantly more calories than they burned while performing the "knowledge-based" tasks.
In a study published in the current issue of Psychosomatic Medicine, researchers found a physiological basis for the spike in appetite. Mental work "destabilizes" the levels of insulin and glucose, two critical components in the body's regulatory and energy machinery, thus stimulating the appetite, said Jean-Philippe Chaput, lead author of the study.
Why men don't do laundry
A preliminary autopsy report indicated the Sunday night death of a Dixie County man was apparently a freak accident.
Carl U. Thomas, 29, was found in an unattached shed near the home where he had been living at 94 SE 452nd St., an area southeast of Cross City.
Witnesses told deputies that Thomas had gone to the shed to do laundry. When he did not return to the house, witnesses said they went to look for him and found him on the floor next to a clothes dryer shortly before 7:49 p.m.

"That's what my daughter wanted and how could I tell her no?" said Randy Barrows, father of the bride.
The love story began five years ago. Trevor and Crystal Gingras met at the race track, fell in love, and decided to get married. Both enjoy the outdoors and hunting and wanted their wedding to reflect their common interests. "Everything I own is camouflage, so we went with it," said Trevor Gingras, the groom. Unusual wedding plans -- but plans that came as no surprise to their family and friends.

Diddy Blog #16 - John McCain is buggin the f%^k out!
This hurt my head. Seriously, while I was listening to this I had to stay away from sharp objects. But I thought it was necessary for you to be aware of the type of people that are voting. Democrat or Republican, our country is doomed if these people are left to decide.
