CHATHAM, Ont. - A man from Tiny Township, Ontario is facing an indecent act charge after an incident on Highway 401 in southwestern Ontario.

Provincial police say they received a complaint on Friday afternoon about a driver in the Chatham, Ont., area.

It's alleged he was driving erratically and exposing his genitals to another driver in the eastbound lanes of the highway.

The incident took place on Friday just after 1:00 p.m. Officers received the complaint about the male driver of a Dodge pickup on Highway 401 eastbound, near Merlin Road.

Paul Fournier, 49, of Tiny Township is charged with indecent act in a public place.

He is scheduled to appear in court on February 25.

Tiny Township is home to about 11,000 residents of Simcoe County. It sits about 150 km north of Toronto.



Man ‘demands sex’ from sister in-law to settle debt

A Gwanda man, caught in his brother’s bedroom at night chatting to his sister-in-law, stabbed his elder sibling several times with a knife after being asked about his intentions.


James Gandidzanwa, 25, of West Nicholson, was yesterday arraigned before Gwanda magistrate Olivia Mashava Mashaire facing charges of assaulting his brother, Justice Ndlovu, 32.

He pleaded guilty and was remanded in custody to today for sentencing.

Prosecuting Getrude Zvidzai told the court that on January 21, at around 8PM, Gandidzanwa approached his brother’s wife demanding his money.

Zvidzai said Ndlovu’s wife told Gandidzanwa to wait for her husband’s return as he was not around.

“The accused person then insisted on sleeping with his brother’s wife as a way of recovering his money. Gandidzanwa started quarrelling with his brother’s wife and that is when the complainant arrived and inquired what the noise was all about. This angered Ndlovu who then drew a knife and stabbed his brother several times on the back, twice on the left arm and once on the right hand. Gandidzanwa sustained injuries,” Zvidzai told the court.

The magistrate ordered the State to clarify whether the injuries sustained by Ndlovu would cause permanent disability.

In his defence, Gandidzanwa said he was provoked by his brother into attacking him.

“Your Worship, I admit that I stabbed my brother several times with a knife on his back but he was the aggressor. He attacked me after learning that I’d been chatting to his wife in their bedroom, which angered him.

“My brother’s wife is the one who called me into their bedroom indicating that her husband was away. What I don’t agree with is that I intended to have sexual intercourse with my sister-in-law,” he said.

Gandidzanwa said he had taken the knife from his brother after disarming him.

“He grabbed me armed with a knife and an altercation ensued. I disarmed him but in the process, injured my palm. I can’t remember how many times I stabbed him but it was more than four times,” he said.

He pleaded for the court’s leniency in passing the sentence, saying that he had given his brother $20 for medical attention.

Too ugly to love? Deaf dog with odd-coloured eyes like Mila Kunis in pound for two YEARS

Buddy, who suffers from heterochromia, has been waiting at a dog pound for two years while hundreds of other more attractive dogs are given new homes

Rare condition: Mila Kunis and Buddy both have heterochromia


A deaf dog with odd-coloured eyes like Mila Kunis has been declared "too ugly to love."

Buddy the lurcher suffers from heterochromia like the Hollywood actress - the condition is harmless but affects the pigment colour of one eye.

But while the Friends with Benefits star has since had surgery to correct the problem, the poor pooch has been waiting at a pound for two years to find a new home.

Around 1,000 more attractive dogs have since been taken in by families, while the only attention Buddy receives is when he visits prisoners behind bars to help with their life skills.

Susan Tonner, manager of the Dogs Trust, in West Lothian said: "Every time a prospective owner visits he leaps with joy in the hope they will stop at his door."

She says they occasionally pause for a moment or two - but quickly move on and set their hearts on one of his neighbours.

Some may be put off by his odd eyes - one is blue and the other brown. while others feel the prospect of learning doggy sign language is a commitment too far.

Still smiling: Buddy the lurcher has been declared 'too ugly to love'


"If someone got to know him like the staff here do they would have an absolutely lovely, loyal dog," she said.

"He is good in cars, he travels really well. We've had him in a house so we know he's house-trained. He is very, very friendly, it just needs somebody to build up some time and trust with him."

The playful pooch was brought into the shelter as a stray, and staff quickly noticed he did not respond to commands like most other dogs.

They established he was partially deaf and started teaching him basic sign language.

Susan added: "We would be looking for a home that would understand deaf dogs or be patient with him.

"If there is something coming towards him that he's not expecting he can be jumpy, so we are looking for someone who understands that and will be calm and reassuring."

Different colours: Buddy has been snubbed by many a loving family


Figures released by the Dogs Trust last week revealed 174 dogs were brought into its shelters over Christmas and New Year - twice the normal rate.

After hearing of Buddy's plight, comedian and dog lover Paul O'Grady, 59, who recently presented a TV series from Battersea Dogs and Cats Home, urged the perfect owner to come forward.

He said: "He will make somebody a lovely pet, he really will. I wish him all the best."

Pauline Waller, who runs K9 Harmony behavioural dog training in Fife, which works with deaf dogs, has vowed to give free advice to anyone who takes Buddy on.

She said: "With any dog there is work...training a deaf dog is not harder.

"You'll use different techniques to train him but the love you will get from him is quite incredible."

The male anchor is forced to walk off screen because he's laughing so much at the accidental double entendre



A video of two TV news anchors losing it when the word "balls" is used in a report has become an online sensation.

The two journalists at Michigan-based News Channel 3 burst into giggles when a reporter on the segment about a children’s ball pit signs the segment off with the words: "They’ll let David keep his balls."

The camera cuts back to the studio where the male and female anchor start laughing, before the man walks off screen, apparently unable to contain himself.

Giggles: The pair's initial shock turns into laughter

His colleague, manages to blurt out: "I’m slightly concerned by the story we’ve put on television,” before urging him to come back.

She then tells viewers that they’ll be right back. Now thousands of people have viewed the video, which is being extensively shared on social media and blogs.

Meet the sewer surfers! Watch daredevils perform incredible stunts in a drain

The British talents swap a boat for a portable petrol winch in the amazing footage shot by filmmaker Andrew Eddy


A talented group of wakeboarders have showcased numerous unimaginable tricks in a small overflow drain.

The professional group made use of their urban environment by swapping a boat for a portable petrol winch in a usually serene stretch of water.

Innovative, British sportsmen Matt Crowhurst, Lee Debuse, Christian Koester and wakeskater Ollie Moore risked their lives for the dangerous stint in Surrey which was shot by filmmaker Andrew Eddy.

Former athlete Andrew, who has more than 20 years experience in the sport said any waterway can become a playground for extreme sport.

Cool dude: A fearless wakeboarder using some flood conditions to his advantage in Surrey, England


He added: “Riding along areas such as canals and overflow drains is becoming more popular.

“Any waterway where we can practice in a new place is appealing.

“Obviously most wakeboarders are propelled by a boat but we like to improvise and used a petrol winch that had a spool of rope with a handle on.

“There has been a good reaction to the video – I think people appreciate we looked for somewhere to ride that was very different and used the storm waters in a way that was positive and original.”

Slick: Just chilling out before he takes part in a dangerous extreme sport...  


Wakeboarding is one of Britain's fastest growing water sports and can be enjoyed all over the country, especially when conditions are calm.

Riding in shallow water is often more dangerous for wake boarders. But the thrill-seeking athletes land their tricks with apparent ease.

Andrew said: “They were all professionals so the risk is reduced, but given the shallow depth of the water, it was still pretty dangerous.

This hilarious video shows an American try - and fail in epic fashion - to pronounce a selection of UK place names.

The four-minute, 27 second clip shows expert voice artist Siobhan Thompson, AKA Anglophenia, asking US citizen and fellow YouTube star Rusty Ward of Science Friction fame to say aloud the names of several places towns and cities across Britain.

Perhaps needless to say, he doesn't do too well.

Llanelli, Bicester, Derby, Dumfries, Cirencester, Marlborough and Marylebone are among the settlements Ward pronounces incorrectly.

God bless America.
