ALBANY, Ore. -- A
9-year-old boy who complained of an earache was a little surprised when
the doctor told him that a pair of spiders had tried to make a home out
of him. "They were walking on my eardrums," said Jesse Courtney. One of the spiders was still alive after the doctor flushed the fourth-grader's left ear canal.
His mother, Diane Courtney, said her son insisted he kept hearing a
faint popping in his ear -- "like Rice Krispies" -- before the earache
sent them to the doctor. Dr. David Irvine said it looked
like the boy had something in his ear when he examined him, but he
could not immediately identify it. So he irrigated the ear, and the
first spider came out, dead. The other spider took a
second dousing before it emerged, still alive. Both were about the size
of a pencil eraser. kgw.com 9-year-old Jesse Courtney kept the two spiders that doctors pulled out of his ear. Irvine said it was a first for him as a physician. More: Reporter Blog: Jane Smith "It was the only time I ever pulled out an invertebrate," he said.
Jesse was given the spiders -- now both dead -- as a souvenir. He has
taken them to school and his mother has taken them to work. "It was real interesting, 'cause, two spiders in my ear -- what next?" Jesse said. Doctor finds spiders in ear of boy with earache

By Thom Jensen and KATU Web Staff
VANCOUVER, Wash. - Police have arrested a man suspected of breaking into a home, stripping off his clothes, taking a video of himself and then leaving the camera behind.
The incident happened in late April after the man followed two teenage girls to a Vancouver home. He later broke into the house, recorded video of himself in a bathroom mirror and left the camera.
The Vancouver Police Department got numerous tips after the story aired Wednesday night. There was a lot of concern in the community because the crime occurred right across the street from the popular Lieser Crest Park.
The man under arrest is 24-year-old Jose Mendez-Barragan. It turnes out he had been picked up on a warrant within the past 24 hours and was already in jail. He faces one count of Indecent Exposure and one count of Unlawful Communication with a Minor for Immoral Purposes.
House emptied after fake ad posted on Craigslist
Now she's trying to recover thousands of dollars that she lost.
Someone clearly thought the prank would be funny, but Laurie Raye says she hasn't stopped crying since she showed up to her mother's ransacked and emptied house.
The ad placed on the popular web site invited people to take "items outside this home and in the garage on the 1200 block of East 64th Street," saying that it was all was free for the taking.
Raye had recently evicted a tenant and cleaned out the rental, but that didn't stop people from walking of with something.
Those who read the ad took it literally, taking everything from the house -- including the kitchen sink and water heater. Light fixtures, wires, doors, and any other salvageable part of the house were also stolen.
Damaged furniture and other property now litter the front yard.
Tacoma police say they flagged the ad a few days earlier because of what it said. When the home owner reported the burglary police made the connection.
Detective Gretchen Ellis said this incident should serve as another reminder to think twice any time you see an ad on the web.
"We've had prostitution, we've had fraudulent scams, we've had rental scams, that type of thing," she said. "You just have to remember on Craigslist that it's a good resource, but you have to take those things with a grain of salt."
Ellis said it will likely be difficult to track down whoever posted the fake ad.
SALEM, Ore. (AP) - A former Woodburn coach has gotten a state reprimand for biting the thigh of one of half a dozen wrestlers who tried to give him a wedgie.
At a December 2005 practice, the Teacher Standards and Practices Commission said, team members tried to give Peter Porath a wedgie - jerking his undershorts upward.
"At least six wrestlers, weighing between 180 and 215 pounds each, came up to Mr. Porath from behind in an attempt to give him a 'wedgie'. In the process of getting the boys off of him, Mr. Porath bit the inside of a wrestler's leg leaving distinct teeth marks," the commission said.
The commission called that "gross neglect of duty." It put him on probation for two years and said Porath must complete a class on appropriate behavior and write a public apology to the student he bit.
Porath was then the assistant wrestling coach. He teaches high school social studies at Woodburn. He no longer coaches wrestling, but does coach baseball, said Woodburn Superintendent Walt Blomberg.
Blomberg said the wrestlers were disciplined by the wrestling coach but did not receive academic penalties such as suspension.
"You can't place all the blame on the teacher. He characterized it as an attack," Blomberg said.
The student and his family did not pursue a complaint, but the district felt obligated to report the incident to the state, Blomberg said. The district also reprimanded Porath
McMINNVILLE, Ore. (AP) - A man dressed in a World War II military uniform attacked two employees at the Evergreen Aviation Museum this week.
McMinnville Police Capt. Dennis Marks said Gerald Lahey, a transient, broke into the rear of the building and smashed the glass panel of a display case. He then removed the coat, hat and pants from a World War II uniform and put them on.
Lahey was inside when operations director Phillip Jeager of McMinnville and cafe manager Cheryl McKay of Sheridan arrived for work Monday morning. Marks said Lahey punched Jeager several times and bit McKay.
Neither employee required hospitalization.
A museum spokeswoman said Lahey got into one of the museum's airplanes.
Lahey was booked into the Yamhill County Jail and arraigned Tuesday.

Dreams of an Ebony Girl - 40
Reply to: pers-296277600@craigslist.org

I was in the hospital in Southern California in the summer of 2004 after suffering a very serious illness.
I nearly died. As it was I spent several weeks in the hospital, including four weeks in ICU.
What I remember most about that craumatic experience was the number of beautiful ebony nurses I had. Neating the end of my stay I began to fantasize about having a relationship with an ebony girl.
Now more than ever I find myself turning to the dark side.
I am a middle-aged white man, unmarried, no children. I am in my 40s now and getting better steadily. Are you an attractive ebony girl looking for a way out or just something different? Do you have no kids and not really any wish to have children? Do you look good in a swim suit? Are you interested in the possibility of going on a tropical vacation? Need someone to take care of you?
Well then shoot me a line and let's talk. I thought I had an African American girlfriend some months back but discovered all she wanted were a few free movies and dinner a few times. I did have the opportunity to make love with Tanya once, but to be honest it was just not enough. Now I no longer hear from her.
Call me a player or a sugar daddy if you must. Just send me a pic and let's start a conversation.
Here is a pic with me and Tanya. Surely you can do better.
Hope to here from you.

Groomer allegedly glues dog's ear back on
GIG HARBOR, Wash. (AP) - A Gig Harbor woman said she was "freaked out" while giving her dog a bath when its ear floated away.
The woman, Anni Sheriffius, told a Seattle-area TV station she believes a groomer cut off the dog's ear and tried to glue it back on with super glue.
The dog named Jasimin, a shi tzu, was treated for an infection.
Pierce County sheriff's spokesman Ed Troyer said investigators are looking into possible charges of animal cruelty. But the pet grooming shop has shut down.

Residents getting fed up with naked neighbor
NEAR RAINIER, Ore. - A man dubbed the 'Naked Neighbor' because he constantly exposes himself in view of both adults and children is proving frustrating to those who just want him to cover up.
Neighbors have been complaining about the guy for decades.
If you drive past the man's home, which is just four miles south of Rainier and very near the intersection of Brownlee and Neer City Roads, be prepared for what you might see.
"I personally have seen him six or seven times," said a woman we'll call 'Susan.' She did not wish to be shown on camera, but came to KATU News looking for help after lodging numerous complaints about what she was seeing.
"He's naked and he wants to be seen," she said.
The man's name is Jimmy "Mack" McKenzie. He turns 60 next month. Neighbors say he has been strutting his stuff in front of them since he was in his 40s.
"He's standing out there in the summer, the spring, the rain, in the heat," said Susan. "It doesn't matter."
KATU News tried to talk to McKenzie, but he declined. However, we only had to wait outside his home for about 10 minutes to see the so-called 'Naked Neighbor' come out in his red and revealing briefs.
Neighbors say that's how it starts. He struts out in his underwear and then pulls them off. One of his favorite times to go 'full Monty' is in the afternoon, they say, just in time for the Rainier school bus.
The
local postal carrier, Becky Hubbard, said she too has seen him,
numerous times. She first heard about McKenzie after her niece
returned home on the school bus one day.
"I said 'how long has this been going on?' and she said 'well, we've told the driver and everything else. It's been going on forever,'" Hubbard said.
The driver of one school bus told KATU News he saw McKenzie out naked twice, but it was a story he changed after talking to Superintendent R. Michael Carter.
"I'm just telling you that nothing is going on," Carter told KATU News outside the District Office. "No comment."
When we told him that parents told KATU News they had made complaints to the school district, Carter said "We're done. You may leave now. We have not had one complaint. I've told you that four times. You may leave now please."
Hubbard said she complained to the previous school administration as far back as 2000.
"Kids on the school bus have complained," she said. "They told the driver. I even called the school."
"What about the children?" asked Susan. "What about the innocence? Who's getting protected here?"
The Columbia County Sheriff's Department has received complaints about McKenzie, but they say what he is doing is not illegal.
According to the law, McKenzie can walk all the way down his driveway to his mailbox, stark naked if he likes, and it doesn't matter who sees him.

However, if McKenzie does something a little different than just walking, he could get in trouble.
"If
he's walking around trying to arouse himself or others, then that's a
crime," said Lt. Jerry Simmons with the Columbia County Sheriff's
Department.
Oregon's law on public nudity is clear - it is not public indecency unless the person engages in sexual intercourse publicly or attempts arousing sexual desire with their self or another person.
"Just walking around in his birthday suit is not a crime," said Lt. Simmons.
However, some of McKenzie's neighbors say it is much more than a 'birthday parade.'
"When we told them that we had seen this gentleman outside in his driveway masturbating, they said 'we'll send someone out, but we're busy today,'" said Susan.
Nobody wants to acknowledge it," said Hubbard. "Nobody wants to do anything about it."
KATU News has obtained police and court records showing McKenzie was charged with public indecency three times between 1989 and 2004.
According to records at the state appeals court, he also admitted to molesting a toddler and while he was serving probation in 2005, McKenzie was arrested again, this time charged with 50 counts of Encouraging Child Sexual Abuse.

Deputies say they searched his home and found boxes and computer hard drives stuffed with child pornography. McKenzie is currently free on bail for the child porn charges. He goes to trial in late September, but that is little consolation to those who live near him.
"This guy was charged with kiddie porn and you're telling me he's not showing an interest in the children on the school bus? Where else are you going to get that big of an audience?" asked Susan.
