2 planes collide, everyone's OK

GRAND JUNCTION, Colo., Oct. 23 (UPI) -- Two small airplanes collided in the sky above Colorado Wednesday and all six people involved lived to tell the tale, authorities said.

The midair accident that occurred 15 miles southeast of Grand Junction involved a Mesa County Sheriff's Office plane carrying four people, including two prisoners, and two men in a second aircraft, The Denver Post reported.

"It's very miraculous," Barbara Chappell, an assistant at the Mesa County Sheriff's Office, told the Post. "There were no injuries."

The sheriff's plane flew back to the Grand Junction Regional Airport, while the second aircraft landed upside down in a field 14 miles southeast of the airport, a spokesman for the Federal Aviation Administration said.

Weather conditions were good at the time and officials hadn't given a cause for the accident.

"All of a sudden, there was a plane right in front of us," John Haefeli, who was in the second plane being flown by his son, Tom Haefeli of Del Norte, told the Grand Junction Daily Sentinel.

He said his son tried to turn the plane's nose down but the sheriff's plane sheared off a section of their tail.

"We thought, 'We're not going to make it,' " he told the Sentinel.

Couple scales down to 154-square-foot home

CALISTOGA, Calif., Oct. 22 (UPI) -- A couple in Calistoga, Calif., say they replaced their 1,800-square-foot home with a 154-square-foot house when the economy began to sour.

Bill and Sharon Kastrinos said Wednesday on CNN's "American Morning" program that they like their new minimalist lifestyle.

"There's a tremendous burden that's off your shoulders," Sharon Kastrinos said. "Small is OK, and it might even be better."

Her husband said Americans "want to be seen in their big house with a big car," adding that, "I don't think bigger is better."

Their new house, which has wheels, cost them $15,000, and the utilities cost them just $15 a month.

CNN said the couple lives on property owned by their daughter in California's wine country, where the average home in 2007 cost $725,000.

Italian court: Boy cannot be named Friday

ROME, Oct. 22 (UPI) -- A court in Italy ruled Wednesday that a couple cannot name their son Venerdi, which means Friday.

Italy's supreme court, the Cassation Court, said the name Friday, which is taken from the famous Robinson Crusoe character, was ''ridiculous, susceptible to irony and mockery and liable to cause serious harm to the person who bears it,'' ANSA reported.

The high court said the Robinson Crusoe character is one characterized by "subservience and inferiority, who would never reach the condition of a civilized man,'' the Italian news service reported.

The judges ordered the couple to call the child Gregorio, after the saint's day he was born on.

The head of the Italian Association of Matrimonial Lawyers said Italian law mandates name changes ''when the child's name is likely to limit social interaction and create insecurity.''

Police arrest nude man in store chimney

PEMBERTON, England, Oct. 22 (UPI) -- Police in Pemberton, England, say a man has been charged with burglary after being found trapped naked in a supermarket's chimney.

Officers said the 22-year-old man was found wedged in the chimney of a Tesco store at about 5:30 a.m. Wednesday, The Times of London reported.

A Greater Manchester Police spokeswoman said she "has no idea how the man got into the chimney" but officers have a theory regarding how he wound up naked: "It is believed that some of his clothes came off as a result of him struggling to get out of the chimney," she said.

Police freed the man with the help of firefighters and he was checked out at a local hospital before being taken into custody.
