As if being arrested wasn’t bad enough..

Ivonne Hernandez, 43, pleaded not guilty on Monday to reckless second-degree murder, aggravated driving while intoxicated and two counts of reckless conduct after the incident in a Nashua, New Hampshire parking lot last Friday.

Prosecutors say Hernandez was drunk when she drove her car across a dirt parking lot outside the Nashua City Hall into Matthew Beaudoin, 29, and Maria Hughes, 21, after exchanging words with them about the Yankees and Red Sox baseball teams.

The spat began at a local bar where Hernandez said she was a Yankees fan, according to witnesses quoted by the Nashua Telegraph newspaper.

It then spilled outside where a group that included Beaudoin chanted “Yankees suck!” when they saw a Yankees sticker on the rear window of Hernandez’s car, New Hampshire’s Assistant Attorney General, Susan Morrell, told Reuters in a telephone interview.

She told Nashua District Court that Hernandez drove directly at the group and did not brake, hitting Beaudoin.

“The forensic evidence at the scene indicates tire tracks going about 200 feet that did not swerve or brake,” Morrell said. “He went onto the windshield and then when the car hit the parking meter he was ejected,” she added.

Beaudoin died of massive head trauma, she added.

Hernandez told police she had only wanted to scare the group. She was ordered held without bail.

Hughes suffered minor injuries.

The Red Sox and the New York Yankees have long been one of sport’s most colorful and fiercest rivalries.

While Boston won the World Series championship five times in its first two decades, including the 1903 inaugural series, they endured an 86-year dry spell before winning their sixth Series in 2004 and seventh in 2007.

The Yankees, however, have racked up 26 wins over the Series’ history, including streaks of three, four and five-in-a-row championships.

“If you could go to any planet, what planet would you want to go to and why?”

After pondering the question she answered, “I would like to go to Mars because it seems so interesting with all the recent news about possible extra terrestrial life on the planet.”

They said “Well okay, thank you,” and told her that they would get back to her.

Next, the redhead entered the room and the NASA people asked her same question. In reply, “I would like to go to Saturn to see all of its rings.” Again, thank you and they would get back to her.

Finally, the blond entered the room and they asked her the same question they asked the brunette and the redhead. She thought for a while and replied, “I would like to go to the Sun.”

The people from NASA replied, “Why? Don’t you know that if you went to the sun you would burn to death?”

The blond smirked and put her hands on her hips. “Are you guys dumb? I’d go at night!”

The mini-bus driver was on his way to collect a fare in Castle Acre, near King’s Lynn, when he took a wrong turn into the River Nar.

Fortunately he had no passengers aboard - but he did have the embarrassment of having to ring his bosses for help, reports Lynn News.

Streamline Taxis owners Keith Jarvis and Pat Bowles took along a towrope, expecting to find the eight-seater minibus just off the ford.

But Mr Jarvis said: “It took ages to find him and we couldn’t believe it when we saw where he was - it was several hundred yards along the river!

“The vehicle still had its engine running and headlights on, and he was sitting in it with his trousers rolled up round his knees. I shone a torch in the river and there were fish swimming around the headlights.”

Pat Bowles added: “Normal people would stop and back out but because his sat-nav told him to keep going that’s what he did.

“I don’t think he did think until he couldn’t go any further.”

Ms Bowles said it had given the driver’s colleagues plenty of amusement: “He’s had taxi drivers going into the office with snorkels on.

“We’ve also had phones calls, texts coming through asking if they can book river trips.”

An Australian lads’ mag is running a competition with a free divorce as the prize.

The competition will allow one disgruntled husband to “unleash themselves back to bachelor hood”.

Zoo Weekly’s £5,000 divorce package includes lawyers fees, court costs - and a divorce party with pin-up girls.

There is also a three-tiered divorce cake, a cleaner for two months, a plasma TV, Playstation 3 and a year’s subscription to Zoo.

Zoo editor Paul Merrill said the divorce competition was the perfect way for a reader to “win back their freedom”.

“If a marriage fails it’s sad, but what’s sadder is being stuck under the same roof as a woman who’s just slept with your best mate,” said Mr Merrill.

“Our lucky winner will get to escape and start a new whole new life. We’ll help him at every stage - from buying a new plasma screen and throwing him a party, to finding him a new girlfriend.”

The give away follows Zoo’s previous offer of a free breast enhancement for a reader’s girlfriend.

Girls were urged to send in snaps of their cleavage for readers to decide who needed the surgical enhancement the most.

There were thousands of entries received for what the magazine described as “the most romantic gift of all”.

The groom doesn’t look happy at all…lol

Experts at Belgrade University have confirmed that all the rocks Radivoje Lajic has handed over were meteorites.

They are now investigating local magnetic fields to try and work out what makes the property so attractive to the heavenly bodies.

But Mr Lajic, who has had a steel girder reinforced roof put on the house he owns in the northern village of Gornja Lamovite, has an alternative explanation.

He said: “I am obviously being targeted by extraterrestrials. I don’t know what I have done to annoy them but there is no other explanation that makes sense. The chance of being hit by a meteorite is so small that getting hit five times has to be deliberate.”

The first meteorite fell on his house in November last year and since then a further four have smashed into his home. The strikes always happen when it is raining heavily, never when there are clear skies.

He said: “I did not know what the strange-looking stones were at first but I have since had them all confirmed as meteorites by experts at Belgrade University.

“I am being targeted by aliens. They are playing games with me. I don’t know why they are doing this. When it rains I can’t sleep for worrying about another strike.”

Brakke reported the car stolen to Burbank police in May 1970.

One month later, a Long Beach teenager named Judy Smongesky received the car as a high school graduation gift from her father, who had bought it at a Bellflower used car dealer.

Smongesky, who now lives in San Diego, said Thursday she had been driving and maintaining the car for nearly four decades, and only learned that it had been stolen when she recently prepared to sell it. San Diego police verified the car was hot.

“It’s his car, even though he had it for four years and I had it for 38,” Smongesky said. “He seems like a real nice gentleman, though.”

Brakke found out Smongesky had twice rebuilt the engine and painted the Mustang from its old gold color to silver-blue.

“He wasn’t too happy with that,” Smongesky said.

The pair planned to meet up to transfer the car soon.

“It was hard but it was the right thing to do,” Smongesky said. “I haven’t really cried yet, but when he drives it away, I think I’ll fall apart.”

LONDON (Reuters) - It is the one moment every man wants to get right — and which London floor-fitter Lefkos Hajji could hardly have got more wrong.

The luckless 28 year-old’s dreams of giving his sweetheart, Leanne, 26, the ultimate proposal have literally vanished into thin air.

Hajji, of Hackney, east London, had concealed a $12,000 engagement ring inside a helium balloon. The idea was that she would pop the balloon as he popped the question.

But as he left the shop, a gust of wind pulled the balloon from his hand and he watched the ring — and quite possibly the affections of his girlfriend — sailing away over the rooftops.

“I couldn’t believe it,” he told The Sun newspaper.

“I just watched as it went further and further into the air.

“I felt like such a plonker. It cost a fortune and I knew my girlfriend would kill me.”

Hajji spent two hours in his car trying to chase and find the balloon, without success.

“I thought I would give Leanne a pin so I could literally pop the question,” he said.

“But I had to tell her the story — she went absolutely mad. Now she is refusing to speak to me until I get her a new ring.”

He is hoping the ring will still turn up.

“It would be amazing if someone found it,” he added.

YELLOW SPRINGS, Ohio - No, that’s not a hallucination. That pear tree is wearing a sweater.

Wrapped around the trunk is a colorful, crazy-quilt skin made up of panels of yarn knitted individually by residents and visitors alike. Good-luck charms cling to the yarn. Family photos, poems and jokes peek out of knitted pockets.

The art project in this southwest Ohio village, already known for its offbeat art, has become a conversation piece and even a photo op.

“What takes this to a different level is it is a community thing,” said Corrine Bayraktaroglu, an artist who helped start the “knitknot tree” project. “People are really, really enjoying it. They’re coming from towns to have their photograph taken with the tree. They’re adding stuff to the pockets.”

Knitters around the U.S. are dressing trees, street signs, benches, door handles and other objects.

Last month, residents of Columbus, Ind., knitted cozies for 33 ornamental pear trees that line the city’s main street. One tree, called the People Hugger, has knitted arms.

Knitted coverings are showing up on trees and doorknobs in Charleston, W.Va. In Houston, knitters have dressed up park benches, car antennas, telephone poles and beer bottles.

“It’s fascinating what’s going on in the knitting world,” Bayraktaroglu said. “Graffiti street art is going to a whole different realm. It’s gone beyond just painting on sides of buildings.”

Artist Carol Hummel is among the pioneers. She crocheted a cozy for a tree in front of City Hall in Cleveland Heights several years ago. It took her 500 hours and the use of a hydraulic lift to dress the upper branches.

The cozy has survived several winters and even a swarm of cicadas, which left their molted skins clinging to the material.

“There are a lot of copycats now,” Hummel said. “A lot of people are getting into putting things on the trees. That’s cool.”

In Yellow Springs, the first knitted panel — a gold piece with the words “Knitknot Tree” and a smiley face — went up in October. It wasn’t until early February that more panels began to be added.

“Then it just took off like crazy,” Bayraktaroglu said. “People were coming from out of town and adding their own knitting.”

Artist Nancy Mellon said people love to come up and touch the tree, and children like to check out what’s in the pockets.

“There was a man — while I was working on the tree — who walked by, and all he said was ‘Thank you,’” Mellon said.

Other residents in this village about 15 miles east of Dayton also seem to like the dressed-up tree.

“It looks like Yellow Springs; it’s unique, it’s colorful, unpredictable,” said Lynda Sirk. “It makes me smile. That’s what I like.”

The tree is vulnerable to the raised legs of passing pooches. Because of that, the panels of yarn don’t extend all the way to ground level.

As the panels spread up the trunk, the knitters had to follow, first standing on a chair, then a three-step ladder, a 6-foot ladder and finally an 8-foot ladder. They finally decided they had gone high enough after someone suggested scaffolding and village officials began to worry about someone falling.

“The fear factor has kicked in,” Mellon said.

The artists who started the project tentatively plan to remove the knitting on Arbor Day at the end of April and give away the pieces of yarn.

But Bayraktaroglu has some reservations about that.

“People get very attached,” she said, “and I think they’ll be mad at us if we cut it down.
