I swear guys, there are crazy people in this world, and the man from this story is one of them. Apparently, he was riding on a Greyhound bus in Canada and seemed completely normal until about 8:30 P.M. when he decided to begin STABBING the poor victim sleeping next to him. Whitnesses said he stabbed the man approximately 50 – 60 times before he proceeded to decapitate him (in front of everyone!). If you didn’t know already, you should stay your behind off of the bus for a while.
A 40-year-old man is in custody in Manitoba after a young man was stabbed — and, witnesses said, decapitated — aboard a Greyhound bus travelling through the province overnight.
The RCMP would not confirm the reports of beheading, saying only that a stabbing took place around 8:30 p.m. CT on an eastbound Greyhound bus on the Trans-Canada Highway about 20 kilometres west of Portage la Prairie.
The suspect, believed to be from outside Manitoba, was arrested early Thursday morning after a standoff lasting several hours and remains in RCMP custody .
Charges have not yet been laid, and the suspect has not yet been interviewed, said RCMP spokesman Staff Sgt. Steve Colwell, adding that he could release no further information on the investigation….[continue reading here]

Hi everybody! It’s me! Thalie! LOL, I felt pretty cute today. What’d you wear today? Send me the photo / link and I’ll post ya later! (nathalie407@yahoo.com)
If you’ve been to my house, you know my patio REALLY needs some help. Kayla just ordered this set from Amazon.com and I was AMAZED by the cheap prices! (Table, $42.59; 2 chairs, $109.99)
I must confess, I MUST! I’m a digital pack rat and I seriously need some help! I honestly have a fear of deleting files and it’s getting ridiculous! (Is there a scientific term for this condition?)
Here are my symptoms:
My Inbox has 2501 messages dated back from 2004
Even though I use an external hard-drive, I have a lack of trust in it, so I have two or three copies of photo albums EVERYWHERE!
When designing/redesigning websites, I keep ALL copies of the layouts…even if they’re ugly
Didn’t I say before that I LOVE creativity!!!?!?! This song’s been running on my top 25 in the iPhone for about a month now. The video is ON POINT!!! What do you all think of it? Was the heart too graphic for ya?
This weekend, we celebrated my mom’s 50th birthday. We had so many friends and family show up that we actually ran out of food so I’m ELATED that so many people came to show her support. I don’t have time to write much because I’ve already been threatened…gotta develop the pictures before I get my butt whooped!
- A network administrator has locked up a multimillion dollar computer system for San Francisco that handles sensitive data and is refusing to give police the password, the San Francisco Chronicle reported Monday.
The employee, 43-year-old Terry Childs, was arrested Sunday. He gave some passwords to police, which did not work, and refused to reveal the real code, the paper reported.
The new FiberWAN (Wide Area Network) handles city payroll files, jail bookings, law enforcement documents and official e-mail for San Francisco. The network is functioning but administrators have little or no access.
Childs, who remains in custody, is accused of improperly tampering with computer systems and causing a denial of service, said Kamala Harris, San Francisco’s district attorney, on Monday afternoon.
“The bail has been set at $5 million, and the exposure in this case if he were convicted on all counts would be seven years in prison,” Harris said.
Harris said it’s unknown why Childs tampered with the system. The Chronicle, however, reported that Childs was disciplined recently for poor performance. Childs worked in the Department of Technology for San Francisco, making close to US$150,000 a year, the paper reported.
City officials told the paper that Childs may have caused millions in damage while also rigging the network so that other third parties could monitor traffic, posing a huge data security risk. He is also alleged to have installed a tracing system to monitor communications related to his personnel case.

All I can say is DAMN!
We all may need to go back to typewriters and filing cabinets! If my livelihood is at the whim of some deranged, disgruntled sys. admin, I’d rather revert back to the yesteryear’s frustration of long lines, and tall piles of paperwork. Unfortunately…we are ALL at risk of having something like this go down. Computers are secure, but you better believe that if someone wants to f* up your day, they’ll find a way to. I’m sure we’ve ALL experienced a “free day of solitaire” at work because of computer/network problems (Now imagine this happening to an entire CITY). We can’t do ANYTHING without computers these days! The officials of San Francisco are about to test out some new waterboarding techniques on Mr. Childs. He’ll be squealing with the password in no time.
We all enjoy the luxury of sharing information freely on the internet, but at what cost? Network security specialists, and programmers are more valuable now more than ever… but you better not piss them off! LOL
