Baggage Container Sucked into Plane Engine

I'm glad no one got hurt but I wonder what was in that container and if any personal items were damaged...

Authorities say a metal baggage container was sucked into an engine of a Boeing 747 at Los Angeles International Airport. No one was injured.

Marshall Lowe, an airport spokesman, says the incident occurred as Japan Flight 61 to Narita, Japan, was pushing back from a terminal about 1:30 p.m.
Federal Aviation Administration spokesman Ian Gregor says a baggage cart was being towed nearby at the same time and the engine ingested one of its containers.
The big metal container became lodged in the outer left-side engine of the four-engine jet.
The 245 passengers were taken back to the terminal.Federal investigators were examining the jet. (From AP/AOL News)

Moose Falls Out of the Sky

It's a bird! It's a plane! It's a-- WTF?!

Police said a 500-pound moose fell 18 feet to its when it apparently leaped a guardrail on an Interstate 95 overpass and landed on Hinckley Road. Officials learned of the incident when a motorist called the town office shortly after 8 a.m. Tuesday and told assistant town clerk Shirley Bailey that "a moose just fell out of the sky."

Bailey said the driver, who was under the bridge when he spotted the falling moose, was "pretty excited about it."
Police Chief Charles Runnels said the yearling bull probably panicked because of the noise and traffic along I-95 and began running. He said it just picked the wrong spot to jump the guardrail, falling onto a road instead of landing in a field.
A passerby with a wrecker hauled away the carcass. (From AP/AOL News)

LaLa Gets Ejected from Basketball Game

Her version of the story isn't too hard too believe (statement below). Texas can be an interesting place and she just doesn't seem like the type to pick a fight. Post-racial society, huh?

“La La Vazquez became distressed during a heated playoff game, after being verbally attacked by some opposing fans, who were using racial slurs, calling her child crude names and throwing ice cubes. She sent her son home early and was preparing to leave herself when she was physically pushed. Although shaken, she left the premises on her own will and is estatic to be at home with her fiancée and child.”

“Obviously the play-offs games bring out the best and the worst in fans but what happened on Monday night with the racial slurs/threats, verbal attacks on my son and physical attacks to myself by irate fans was unacceptable,” states La La. “The fans were totally out of control. What the cameras captured was me defending myself and didn’t show the that was taking place.” (From Allhiphop.com/NBCDFW.com)

XXL Editor Steps Down

XXL Editor Steps Down It's hard not to notice the trend here. Could this be the end of magazines? XXL Magazine Editor-In-Chief Datwon Thomas has reportedly left his position at the publication after just over a year.While details are in short supply, the news of Thomas' departure hit the net earlier today (May 12).

Word on the curb is that Datwon Thomas has stepped down from his position as Editor-In-Chief of XXL and Executive Editor, Vanessa Satten will resume duties at the top of the masthead. No reason as to why Datwon allegedly left his post, but we'll have more as this story develops. ( Radar)

Thomas took over the magazine in March 2008.

"I won't take the job lightly," he said in a statement last year. "The game is in a tough spot. Lagging sales, declining buzz, warring factions, creative slump and various other factors make the details of my job tougher than expected. I'm here though, ready to grip up and bust some for a culture that's slipping into uncharted territory that looks a little grim. The fact that a lot of good hip-hop is still out there helps make my job that much easier. I, with your help, will find that hip-hop and give it the platform that it rightly deserves. Wish me luck, I'm going in." (Pro Hip Hop)
Prior to XXL, Thomas helped launch King Magazine and helped build it into a prominent urban publication. (Compiled by Sohh.com)
