Florida Deputy Zaps Prowling Bear With Taser
MILTON, Fla. — A sheriff's deputy got a shock when a [url=javascript:siteSearch('bear');]bear[/url] came toward him as he searched for a prowler. So he gave the bear a shock with his [url=javascript:siteSearch('Taser');]Taser[/url].
Homeowner Charlie McQueen Smith called Santa Rosa County deputies Tuesday night after finding her air conditioner torn from her kitchen window.
Deputy Ray Dykes thought he was looking for a prowler.
"When I pulled up, I saw the reflection of an animal's eyes. It looked like a little bear cub," he said. "I got to about 40 feet and it stood up, and that's when I knew it was fully grown."
Dykes used his Taser gun when the bear got too close.
"He was about seven or eight feet away when I shocked him," he said.
The bear fell to the ground, breaking the connection with the weapon, which administers a strong electrical charge. The animal fled into the woods and disappeared.
Smith said she's lived in the home since it was built in 1960 and had never seen a bear there before Friday. The bear showed up then and visited several times over the weekend. Smith suspects the smell of fried chicken might have enticed it to try and come inside. A trash pit near the home might also have been a lure, officials said.
I have a special tazer just waiting for the first bear to come by. It has a 50 round clip ;^)

No mercy for oldest man on death row
Inmate, 75, scheduled to die on January 17
SACRAMENTO, California (Reuters) -- California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger has ruled out a clemency hearing for the state's oldest death row prisoner.
Clarence Ray Allen, 75, is scheduled to be executed on January 17 for ordering three murders while serving a life sentence in prison. He is blind, deaf, and confined to a wheelchair.
Allen would be the second-oldest man executed in the United States in recent decades. In December, a 77-year-old Mississippi man became the oldest prisoner executed in the United States since it resumed capital punishment in 1977.
Citing the failing health of their client, who suffered a heart attack in September, Allen's lawyers have sought to stay his execution. A federal judge last month declined their request.

Spammer must pay $11bn to ISP
And can't go online for three years...
By Dan Ilett
Published: Thursday 5 January 2006
A Florida man has been ordered to pay $11.2bn for sending millions of spam messages through the network of a small US internet service provider (ISP).
Iowa-based CIS Internet Services won the ruling against James McCalla, who sent more than 280 million unsolicited emails touting debt consolidation and mortgage services, a report from local newspaper the Quad City Times reports.
CIS owner Robert Kramer is reported to have said he will probably not see any of the money.
Graham Cluley, senior technology consultant for Sophos, commented: "This judgement against a spammer is undoubtedly the biggest we have ever heard of.
"Spam is not just a nuisance for individual computer users who find their inboxes clogged up with unwanted mail but for ISPs who are hit in the pocket by having to pay for the bandwidth to deliver and store hundreds of millions of messages."
District judge Charles Wolle also ruled that McCalla will be prohibited from accessing the internet for three years.
In 2004, CIS was awarded more than $1bn from 300 spammers after servers received up to 10 million spam emails in a day, according to court documents.

'Miracle' cat survives high-speed, 70-mile ride
Male kitty was stuck in the underbelly of a sport utility vehicle
The Associated Press
Updated: 1:22 p.m. ET Jan. 4, 2006
VORHEES, N.J. - Curiosity didn’t kill one cat on a wild ride on the New Jersey Turnpike.
The feline, now known as Miracle, hitchhiked a ride on the underbelly of a sport utility vehicle just before Christmas. The gray and white cat traveled some 70 miles on the turnpike Dec. 23.
“I’m just amazed that the cat didn’t fall off or get blown off,” said Karen Dixon-Aquino, director of the Animal Welfare Association in Voorhees. The association is caring for Miracle and plans to put him up for adoption.
The SUV’s driver didn’t know about the stowaway until another motorist saw the cat through a wheel well and flagged down the driver.
Dixon-Aquino said Miracle probably climbed under the SUV and was asleep when the journey began. Somehow, the cat avoided being mangled by fan blades and other moving parts as he clung to the car.
“He was pretty freaked out,” Dixon-Aquino said. “His paws were burnt, one claw was missing and his fur was singed.”

Afghan Teacher Beheaded For Educating Girls
POSTED: 5:36 am PST January 4, 2006
KANDAHAR, Afghanistan -- A school teacher has been found decapitated in Afghanistan, murdered by suspected Taliban militants protesting the education of girls.
A spokesman for the provincial government said assailants apparently broke into the man's house Tuesday night and killed him.
He was a teacher at a high school attended by both boys and girls. The education director of the province said insurgents have been putting up posters demanding that girls' schools be closed and threatening to kill teachers at schools that stay open. The official said, "Only the Taliban are against girls being educated."
Hundreds of thousands of Afghan girls have returned to classrooms since the U.S. invasion that toppled the Taliban regime.

Actually, it's pretty sad when something like that happens...
