Channel 9 placed a call to the WWE to ask them how the accident could happen. The call was not immediately returned.

Someone ****ed up is my guess. The WWE isn't really knows for their safety precautions when it comes to stuff in the rafters.

(CNN) – Hillary Clinton appears to have lost a high-profile backer to rival Barack Obama.

Rapper 50 Cent, who told Time magazine last September he was supporting the New York senator's White House bid, now says he has decided to shift his allegiance to Obama.

The multi-platinum star, born Curtis Jackson, told MTV News Friday that Obama's recent speech on race was the deciding factor for his decision.

"I heard Obama speak," he said. "He hit me with that he-just-got-done-watching-'Malcolm X,' and I swear to God, I'm like, 'Yo, Obama!'

"I'm Obama to the end now, baby!"

But the musician also admitted he's lost interest in the protracted Democratic race, and may not support either candidate.

"To be honest, I haven't been following that anymore. I lost my interest," he said. "I listened to some of the debates and things that they were saying, and I just got lost in everything that was going on…Don't look for my vote, for me to determine nothing on that. Just say, '50 Cent, he don't know, so don't ask Fiddy.'

He also said he didn't think the country is ready for a black president.

"I just think there's people that might not be ready for an African-American president," he said. "It'll be an issue, believe it or not."

"You've got to be conscious of racism, period," he continued. "And it's still there. We don't deal with it as often as my grandparents did. My grandparents grew up in South Carolina, so they experienced the heart of that."

You know I really don't think this is going to effect either of their campaigns at all.

The bizarre aftermath of the San Francisco Zoo tiger attack took another strange twist this week. Two San Jose brothers injured in the attack filed a negligence and defamation claim against the city and zoo, and hours later, one of the brothers was in trouble with the law.

Paul Dhaliwal, 19, was arrested on suspicion of trying to swipe a pair of Nintendo Wii video game controllers from a Target store in San Leandro.

He probably planned to strangle his balls with the wiimote strap and then claim Target was neglegent in keeping him from stealing them.

Macbook hacked withing 2 mins (http://news.yahoo.com/s/nf/20080331/bs_nf/59043;_ylt=Ai0jurZTnsv9ri8fH9jwz60jtBAF)

Last week saw the MacBook Air hacked through a Safari browser at the CanSecWest security conference. But before the week ended, Microsoft's Vista Ultimate also fell victim to hackers in the Pwn to Own challenge.

CanSecWest organizers offered a Fujitsu U810 laptop running Vista Ultimate SP1 to any security researcher who could find a way to breach security and gain access to the contents of system files using a previously undisclosed zero-day attack.

Shane Macaulay from Security Objectives won the laptop by exploiting an Adobe Flash zero-day vulnerability. The vulnerability was disclosed to Adobe, which is reportedly working on the issue. No other information is available about the Adobe flaw. Macaulay also won a $5,000 cash prize.

At the end of the last day of the three-day hacker challenge, which was sponsored by 3Com's TippingPoint, only the Sony VAIO laptop running Ubuntu (Linux) was left standing.

Shifting Rules

The first day of the contest, hackers were only allowed to hack into the computers over a network. No one was able to claim the prizes. On the second day, the rules changed. Contestants were allowed to use the machines to visit Web sites and open e-mail messages.

That rule change made it possible for Charlie Miller, a researcher at Independent Security Evaluators, to hack the MacBook Air using the Safari browser within two minutes.

But the Vista and Ubuntu laptops seemingly remained airtight. On the third day of the contest, the judges again broadened the rules, opening up the scope beyond just default installed applications on those laptops to any popular third-party application, such as Adobe's Acrobat Reader, the Firefox browser, and voice-over-IP program Skype.

Macaulay installed Adobe Flash on the laptops and proceeded to compromise the system. Macaulay had some help from Security Objectives colleague Derek Callaway and independent researcher Alexander Sotirov.

Means Justifies the End

Contests such as this tend to be high profile and gain a great deal of attention, but people need to realize that similar vulnerabilities are discovered every day and many stay hidden in the underground where they are used by attackers for some time before they're patched, according to Michael Sutton, director of security research at Safe Channel and a former director at VeriSign iDefense.

"Third-party researchers deserve to be rewarded for the considerable work that goes into uncovering vulnerabilities, so long as they handle the issues responsibly and report them to the appropriate parties to ensure that patches are created and distributed," Sutton said. "In this case, the contest does just that, so the end justifies the means."

Client-side vulnerabilities like the ones exploited in the hacking contest are an increasingly popular attack vector. It's easy to protect a single server that's guarded by a well-designed fortress of controls, Sutton explained, but it's a nightmare to secure thousands of client-side applications under the control of nonsecurity-savvy end users.

So much for Apple's invulnerability the Macbook Air fell first.

President George W. Bush will be battling this week at the NATO summit meeting in Romania against Russia's opposition to eventual alliance membership for Ukraine and Georgia. And he will be pressing for greater help in Afghanistan from allies who are weary of the war there and inclined, in some cases, to put off tough decisions in hopes that the next American president will be more flexible.

A prominent evangelical member of the Church of England’s General Synod has called for a ban on the building of any more mosques in Britain.

Oh dear. This is not going to be pleasant.

Alison Ruoff also claimed that Sharia law is inevitable in this country if mosques continue to be built here.

Build more Churches then. Or, better yet, destroy all Religious buildings and replace them with Universities and Council Houses.

However, if, in some inconceivable catastrophy Sharia Law is declared, I will start riots. I am not having that **** here under any circumstances.

Survey: Florida Teens Believe Drinking Bleach Will Prevent HIV (http://www.local6.com/news/15773787/detail.html)


A recent survey that found some Florida teens believe drinking a cap of bleach will prevent HIV and a shot of Mountain Dew will stop pregnancy has prompted lawmakers to push for an overhaul of sex education in the state.

The survey showed that Florida teens also believe that smoking marijuana will prevent a person from getting pregnant.

State lawmakers said the myths are spreading because of Florida's abstinence-only sex education, Local 6 reported.

They are proposing a bill that would require a more comprehensive approach, the report said.

It would still require teaching abstinence but students would also learn about condoms and other methods of birth control and disease prevention.

The bill just passed its first vote in a committee, Local 6 reported.

For once, I'm all for government intervention here.

Police say the plot at Center Elementary School began because the children, ages 8 to 10, were apparently angry after the teacher disciplined one of the students for standing on a chair.

Students brought a crystal paperweight, a steak knife with a broken handle, steel handcuffs and other items as part of last week's plot, police said Tuesday. They said nine students were involved, but prosecutors are seeking juvenile charges against only three of them.



Police said the plot had been organized enough that some students were assigned specific roles such as covering classroom windows and cleaning up any mess.

I used to work in an abbatoir/smallgoods factory on school holidays and I can attest to the fact that slaughtermen are weird, don't know about violent but it kind of does a person's head in after a while I think. There was a separate production line for making fertiliser out of any pigs who came of the truck sick or dead, it involved what amounted to a giant shredder and the sickos used to lean over the guard rails so they could watch the carcasses get smashed up. Nobody was supposed to go into the killing room if they were slaughtering but people used to stand outside the door and have a smoke and watch.It was a gross job altogether.
