UPDATE: Florida couple sentenced to prison in deadly python case where their 2 yr. old died
ORLANDO, Fla (Reuters) - A young Florida mother and her boyfriend were sentenced on Wednesday to 12 years each in prison on manslaughter charges stemming from the death of the woman's 2-year-old daughter, who was strangled by their pet python in her crib.
Jaren Hare, 21, and boyfriend Charles Darnell, 34, were convicted last month for the July 2009 death of Hare's daughter, Shaianna, in the central Florida town of Bushnell.
Assistant State Attorney Conrad Juergensmeyer said the couple also was ordered to serve five years of probation upon release from prison.
Darnell found the couple's 8-1/2-foot-long albino Burmese python named Gypsy wrapped around Shaianna's head and body after it escaped from an unsecured aquarium during the night, according to the Sumter County Sheriff's Office.
The medical examiner found bite marks on the child's head and arms.
Darnell told authorities he thought he had secured the snake by placing it in a laundry bag, which had a small hole in it, and then covering the aquarium with a quilt held on by safety pins.
Hare told deputies that the snake had escaped from the tank and laundry bag 10 times in the previous two months, and that she was planning to make a locking lid for the tank. The aquarium was kept in the living room where two other children sleeping on a convertible sofa were unharmed.

JOKE: Oh God
A drunk lay slumped outside a bar, in serious need of a drink. A passing priest and bishop started to lecture him on the evils of alcohol. "You should be more like God, like me," said one. The other argued, "No, my son, more like me. I am more like God." The two holy men then argued over which was more like God. Finally, the drunk interrupted. "I'm more like God than either of you arguing hypocrites. And if you give me ten bucks, I'll prove it!" They accepted his challenge and each handed him five dollars. As the drunk stood, he said, "You two go sit in the bar and when I enter you'll have your proof." The bishop entered first and the barkeep said, "Good afternoon, bishop. What'll you have?" Then the priest entered and the barkeep said, "Good afternoon, father. What'll you have?" The drunk came in waving his ten dollars. The bartender shrugged. "Oh, God. Not you again!"
Tractor Loving Swan Has a New Love..A Goose
Schwani the swan who fell in love with an old tractor has traded it in for a new model - after falling for a goose.
Hotel groundsman Hermann Hericks - from Munster, Germany - says the fickle fowl has shunned the blue farm vehicle after a six year obsession and now spends all day following a goose around the park.
"Not so long ago he wouldn't be parted from my tractor and followed me from the minute I started the engine every day," said Herman.
"Now he never lets the goose out of his sight. I am very pleased he's found a new love because although it's not ideal, she's a much better match for him than a tractor," he added.
Man found with suitcase full of ape parts he planned to eat
A horrifying stash of ape body parts intended for use in voodoo spells has been confiscated by customs officials in Potsdam, Germany.
The haul - which included chimp heads, hands, internal organs and several penises - were discovered in the suitcase of African-born David Bueno, 41, who claimed he planned to eat them.
But contraband expert believe the parts were to be used in witchcraft and voodoo rituals where animal body parts are said to bring strength and power to believers.
A customs spokesman said: "This is increasingly common, sadly. These body parts are used in religious rites or medicine." Bueno - who was on his way back from the Congo - is facing charges of trafficking endangered species.
Police Catch Squirrel Flag Thief ...Toledo Residents Relieved
It's not every day Toledo police catch a thief in the act, let alone with a uniformed command officer standing just feet away, watching. But that's exactly what happened on Wednesday. For days, officers had noticed that small flags were disappearing from the Toledo Police Memorial Garden at the Civic Mall, between the municipal and federal courthouses. There were no suspects, no clues left at the scene to help police catch the perpetrator.
But at about 7:15 a.m. on Wednesday, walking into the office, Lieutenants James Brown and Mark King watched the bandit take a flag - and a single pink plastic flower - from the garden. "I just saw him eyeballing it," Lieutenant Brown said. "He didn't know I was standing there." The quick-thinking officer pulled out his cell phone to snap a picture. Lieutenant Brown got his man. Or, well, his squirrel.
The squirrel stopped for a split-second, perhaps realizing he had been caught red-handed - or pawed - on film to look at the lieutenant. Then the suspect, who police describe as a red and brown bushy-tailed critter, fled on four paws toward the Safety Building. "He was too fast," the lieutenant said. "I couldn't catch him." No charges have been filed and police believe the squirrel acted alone in the incident. Lieutenant Brown said it took the squirrel less than 30 seconds to get the small flag off the wooden dowel.
"He definitely knew what he was doing," the lieutenant said. "This wasn't his first time." It's unclear how many flags have been taken from the garden, but the lieutenant said at least three are missing. "I can't prove it was all the same squirrel," he said. Carefully using his teeth, the squirrel cut the flag away from the post. The flag was not ripped and the wooden post was left intact.
JOKE: An Old Man Goes to the Doctor
An 86-year-old man entered the crowded doctor's office, walked over to the the receptionist and said in a rather loud voice, "There's something wrong with my pecker!" The receptionist was offended.
"You shouldn't say things like that in a crowded office!"
"Why not? You asked me what was wrong. I told you," he said.
The receptionist replied, "Because you embarrass the other people waiting here. Say there's something wrong with your ear or something instead and then discuss your problem with the doctor, in private." The man left, waited in the hallway for a while and then reentered. The receptionist smiled smugly and asked, "Yes?"
"There's something wrong with my ear," said the man, loudly. The receptionist nodded approvingly and smiled because he had taken her advice.
"And just what's wrong with your ear, sir?"
And he bellowed, "I can't piss out of it!"
