An artist has turned his cat into a flying helicopter after it was killed by a car.

Dutchman Bart Jansen stuffed Orville before teaming up with aradio control helicopter expert to attach propellers to each of its four paws.

The cat - named after pioneering aviator Orville Wright - is now a piece of artwork. The "Orvillecopter" is on show at the Kunstrai art festival in Amsterdam.

Jansen said his creation is "half cat, half machine", and part of a visual art project to pay tribute to his pet.

"After a period of mourning he received his propellers posthumously," he said.

The Orvillecopter currently struggles to fly steadily, a problem Jansen has promised to fix.

"He will receive more powerful engines and larger props for his birthday. So this hopping will soon change into steady flight."

Squid Injects Woman's Tongue With Sperm Bag As She Eats In Korea

The squid was partially cooked -- of course it was hot and bothered.

A woman in Seoul, Korea was eating semi-boiled squid when the cephalopod injected its sperm bag into her tongue, according to research published in February.

The unidentified woman reportedly experienced a "pricking and foreign-body sensation" while she chewed and spat the squid out. She had to go to the hospital when she felt severe pain and several "small, squirming" creepy crawlies in her mouth.

Doctors found that the squid had left "twelve small, white spindle-shaped, bug-like organisms" in the mucous membranes of her tongue and cheek.

Indeed, the woman's mouth had been essentially inseminated.

Researchers think that the squid's sperm bags came out while the woman chewed her food. Squids have "sperm bags," which are ejaculatory apparatuses that attach themselves to a female's body before slowly secreting sperm, according to Fairfax New Zealand News.

It's not the first time a squid has tried to fertilize a human mouth. There have been several incidents in Japan where people have complained of oral stings by their food, the news site reported.

When consuming raw squid, diners should remove their internal organs, or boil the tasty treat long enough to kill its sperm bags, researchers warned.

The research was published by the American Society of Parasitologists in the Journal of Parasitology.

Man threatens police, demands pizza, Paris Hilton

Fredrick Denney of North Carolina found himself in trouble with the law after allegedly causing a disturbance at a hotel then barricading himself in his room.

A North Carolina man barricaded himself in his hotel room and refused to come out until his two demands were met - pizza and a marriage proposal from Paris Hilton.

Fredrick Denney threatened to open fire on the police while he was locked in his Hampton Inn room in Belmont, N.C., Saturday morning, WCNC-TV reports. Several agencies, including the Regional SWAT Team, responded to the incident and closed off the second floor of the hotel as they tried to negotiate with Denney. Authorities attempted to reason with the 61-year-old for hours until they finally pepper sprayed him and cuffed him. Denney allegedly caused a unspecified disturbance in the hotel hours before the stand-off incident. This is not Denney’s first run-in with the law. Officials say he’s had several encounters with SWAT teams in other states in the past.
