An Oregon City man just couldn't catch a break Friday -- first he lost his job and then he returned home to find his house on fire.
Victor Gonzalez said there was a silver lining to getting fired Friday.
"If I hadn’t gotten fired from work, I wouldn’t have come home, and I don’t know how far the fire would’ve gotten. So I guess that’s a good thing," he said.

The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel said Frederick W. Bertrang stands accused of first-degree reckless injury with use of a dangerous weapon and second-degree recklessly endangering safety with a dangerous weapon in relation to an alleged attack on his mother and his brother's girlfriend.
Authorities allege Bertrang attacked his mother, Patricia, last Thursday after she refused to give him $2 for a bar's cover charge.

Just before noon [yesterday], Harry Kalas got off the Phillies team bus and walked into the visiting clubhouse at Nationals Park. As always, Kalas said something nice to everyone he encountered, then stopped, pulled out a pen and wrote down the lineup which had been posted on the wall.
Lineup in hand, the Hall of Fame broadcaster rode the elevator to the press level and began preparing for a 3 p.m. game between the Phillies and Washington Nationals.
He never got to call the game.

Traffic congestion, road accidents and vehicles with four wheels could soon become a thing of the past if executives at an ailing U.S. car giant get their way.
General Motors have teamed up with electric scooter maker Segway to develop a two-wheeled, two-seat electric vehicle designed to be a fast, safe, inexpensive and clean alternative to traditional cars for cities across the world.
The Personal Urban Mobility and Accessibility, or PUMA, project also would involve a vast communications network that would allow vehicles to interact with each other, regulate the flow of traffic and prevent crashes from happening.
