Pig weighing nearly 300 pounds found in wrecked car

A pig weighing nearly 300 pounds was discovered in the back of a wrecked car in Youngstown, Ohio. The car, a Nissan Cube, was totaled, but Penelope the pig was unscathed.

If pigs could talk, Penelope would tell quite a story. The car, which belongs to Wendy Thrasher, Penelope's owner, was apparently stolen while Thrasher was visiting a friend in Youngstown. When police discovered the car on Monday afternoon, the front end was badly damaged, the two front tires were flat and the air bags had been deployed. Oh, and there was a huge pig hanging out in the back.

Chuck Sayer, a representative from the Mahoning County Humane Society, said, "This isn't something we see every day. Usually dogs, cats, domestic animals, usually not a potbellied pig that weighs 300 pounds."

The Youngstown Vindicator reports that the car was towed with the pig still inside. Thrasher was distressed to see her car totaled but delighted to learn her pig was safe. In an interview with Fox News, Thrasher explained that she's had Penelope since the pig was just 3 days old. "We have human kids," Thrasher said, "I love her (Penelope) every bit as much as the human ones."

Thrasher told WFMJ, "[Penelope] is a little weirded out right now. I'm sure she's weirded out. Whoever stole the car, I'm wondering if that's why they wrecked it."

NHL labor talks resume in undisclosed location

NEW YORK (AP) ? Talks between the NHL and the union are back under way for the first time in nearly a week as the sides again search for a deal to save the hockey season.

Federal mediators are rejoining negotiations being held Wednesday in an undisclosed location under a media blackout. The union, however, has released the names of those players who are taking part in the discussions. They include Craig Adams, Adrian Aucoin, Brad Boyes, Chris Campoli, Mathieu Darche, Shane Doan, Ron Hainsey, Jamal Mayers Andy McDonald, Steve Montador, Brendan Morrison, Douglas Murray, and Daniel Winnik.

It is believed that no owners are accompanying Commissioner Gary Bettman and deputy commissioner Bill Daly on the NHL side.

The talks, being held on the 88th day of the league's lockout, are the first in-person discussions between the sides since last Thursday when bargaining broke down.

All games through Dec. 30 have been canceled.

Here's the Pope's First Tweet

Imagine going Christmas shopping at your local mall, and someone starts shooting. That's exactly what happened in Portland, Oregon on Tuesday, when a lone gunman killed three, including himself. For reasons that weren't immediately clear to authorities, a shooter described by officials as simply an "adult male" entered the?Clackamas Town Center with an assault rifle and started shooting somewhere near the food court. Witnesses counted as many as 60 shots before the assailant turned the gun on himself. ...
