Bear hunt is likely to start in New Jersey. Inspite of the opposition from the Bear Education and Resource group. They are claiming that the Fish and Game council has violated the Open Public Meeting Act which allows teh public to attend the meeting.

The Fish and Game council says they have not violated the act but they have not allowed public in subcommittee meeting the act because this is not required by the act. The Fish and Game council has voted in favor of bear hunt with overwhleming majority 7-0.

Hunters are excited that they would get a chance to hunt bears after nearly five years.

Driver’s Drinking “Automatic”

I have been following drunken Dover driver, Baum’s case, who killed two young girls while they were walking along Kinnelon road on April 20, 2006. It seems a straight case of murdering two innocent teen agers by a drunk driver but the defence attorney tried very hard to prove the man innocent by saying that he was so addicted to Alcohol that he drank without realizing the consequences and ran over the girls without sensing what he did.

Baum has confessed to being drunk on vodka when the car he was driving struck and killed cousins Mayada Jafar, 15, of Kinnelon and Athear Jafar, 16, of Jefferson as they walked along Kinnelon Road on April 20, 2006.

Can anybody be given any concession if he/she is drunk while committing a crime. The person committing a crime while drunk should be punished severely because he has not only committed a crime rather committed it unknowingly due to higher dosage of alcohol.

How long would Alchohol stay legal and let humanity suffer?

I am relieved to see that the offender has been found guilty on all charges.

Justice done.

3 Americans Killed in Pakistan

3 Americans killed in a suicide attack in the Lower Dir district in Pakistan were neither journalists nor employees of the United States Agency for International Development, as reported by the media.

The three victims, who were killed when a suspected suicide bomber targeted a security convoy in the restive area, were US soldiers. This sheds the light on secret efforts of U

S to train paramilitary forces to fight Taliban and Al Qaeda

Rediff reported after contacting a security official,

"There were three US soldiers among the victims. They were in the area to train the (paramilitary) Frontier Corps."

It is also suspected that soldiers killed belong to Black Water.
