Yes that is right.. A fighter jet attacked a school LITTLE EGG HARBOR, New Jersey (AP) -- The target was an object on the ground well within the confines of the Warren Grove firing range, a 2,400-acre scrub pine expanse used by the military to train pilots in bombing and strafing techniques. But when the heavy gun in the left wing of an Air National Guard F-16 fighter jet fired Wednesday night, it sent 25 rounds of 20mm ammunition smashing through the roof and zinging off the asphalt parking lot of the Little Egg Harbor Intermediate School 3 1/2 miles from the range. Military investigators are trying to determine how it could have happened. A custodian was the only person in the school when the shots hit at 11 p.m., and no one was injured. The jet that fired the rounds was assigned to the 113th Wing of the District of Columbia Air National Guard, based at Andrews Air Force Base in Maryland. It returned there after the shots were fired, an Air National Guard spokesman said. Military officials would not identify the pilot. Operations were suspended at the firing range pending completion of the investigation. Police were called after the custodian heard what sounded like someone running across the roof. Police Chief Mark Siino said officers who responded noticed punctures in the roof. Ceiling tiles had fallen into classrooms, and there were scratch marks in the asphalt outside. The pilot of the single-seat jet was supposed to fire at a ground target on the firing range 31/2 miles from the school, said Col. Brian Webster, commander of the 177th Fighter Wing of the New Jersey Air National Guard, which is responsible for the range. The plane was flying at 7,000 feet when the rounds were fired from the M61-A1 Vulcan cannon in the plane's left wing. The weapon fires 2-inch-long lead projectiles that do not explode, Webster said. Webster said he did not know what caused the gun to fire. "The National Guard takes this situation very seriously," said Lt. Col. Roberta Niedt, a spokeswoman for the state Department of Military and Veterans Affairs. "The safety of our people and the surrounding communities are our foremost concern." Mike Dupuis, president of the township's Board of Education, said school workers are mindful that the firing range is nearby. "Being so close to the range, that's always in the back of our minds. It is very scary. I have children in that school and relatives that work there," he said. Schools in New Jersey were closed Thursday because of a teachers convention. The Warren Grove range, about 30 miles north of Atlantic City, has been used by the military since the end of World War II, long before the surrounding area was developed. In 2002, an Air National Guard F-16 that had been practicing at the range crashed along the Garden State Parkway. The plane's pilot ejected safely, and no one on the ground was hurt. Errant practice bombs were blamed for forest fires that burned more than 11,000 acres of the Pine Barrens near the range in 1999 and more than 1,600 acres in 2002. Only one word.. oppps... That janitor is lucky as hell.. 2 inch long lead bullet though the foot might have hurt just a little bit.. not to mention lead poisoning ..

Exploit code makes IE flaw more dangerous The threat posed by a critical flaw in Internet Explorer has been ratcheted up by the release of a program designed to exploit the vulnerability, security researchers warned on Thursday. Security information provider Secunia raised the buffer overflow flaw to its highest rating in a new advisory. The vulnerability, which was made public on Tuesday, could be used to make Internet Explorer trigger a malicious program when the Microsoft browser loads a specially formatted Web page. The flaw does not affect Windows XP Service Pack 2, Secunia said. "This advisory has been rated 'extremely critical,' as a working exploit has been published on public mailing lists," the company said. The Iframe flaw is the latest in a series of security issues related to Internet Explorer. This week, ScanSafe found that a flaw in the browser had racked up the highest number of attacks for one exploit in the second quarter. In addition, Microsoft has been drawn into a debate whether a spoofing technique that uses Internet Explorer can be described as a flaw. Last month, security companies sent out a warning that a set of security holes affected Microsoft's browser among other major Web software. Microsoft has begun to investigate the Iframe vulnerability and has not been made aware of any program designed to exploit the flaw, the company said in an e-mail statement to CNET News.com. "Upon completion of this investigation, Microsoft will take the appropriate action to protect our customers, which may include providing a fix through our monthly release process or an out-of-cycle security update, depending on customer needs," the company stated. The software company took issue with the public release of the vulnerability before it had been notified. Digital agenda "Microsoft is concerned that this new report of a vulnerability in Internet Explorer was not disclosed responsibly, potentially putting computer users at risk," the company said in the statement. "We believe the commonly accepted practice of reporting vulnerabilities directly to a vendor serves everyone's best interests, by helping to ensure that customers receive comprehensive, high-quality updates for security vulnerabilities with no exposure to malicious attackers while the patch is being developed." For now, users can upgrade to Windows XP SP 2 or use a different browser. The U.S. watchdog for Internet threats, the Computer Emergency Readiness Team (CERT), has also warned government and industry users about the Iframe flaw. According to the US-CERT advisory, the problem is caused by how Internet Explorer handles certain attributes of frames, which is a way of displaying Web content in separate parts of the browser window. The US-CERT alert notes that other programs using the WebBrowser Active X control, could be affected by the vulnerability. These programs include Microsoft's Outlook and Outlook Express, America Online's browser, and Lotus Notes. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA "For now, users can upgrade to Windows XP SP 2 or use a different browser." hmm... not upgrading to SP2 so i guess it is Firefox for me.. What a sad day..

LOS ANGELES (AP) - Taking a cue from recording companies, Hollywood movie studios are preparing to file copyright infringement lawsuits against computer users it says are illegally distributing movies online, a source familiar with the studios' plans said Wednesday. The lawsuits will target movie fans who share digitized versions of films over peer-to-peer networks, with the first wave of litigation planned for as early as Thursday, according to the source, who spoke on condition of anonymity. Like the recording industry, which began suing individual music file-sharers last year, the movie studios plan an ongoing litigation campaign, the source said. The Motion Picture Association of America, which represents the major film studios, declined to comment Wednesday. But the organization issued a release saying its chief executive would be making ``a major announcement regarding illegal file sharing of motion pictures on peer-to-peer networks'' early Thursday. The movie studios were still finalizing how many lawsuits would make up their initial filing, but it would probably be around 200 or so, the source said. Videotaped copies of films in theaters often are digitized or burned off DVDs and then distributed on file-sharing networks. The MPAA claims the U.S. movie industry loses more than $3 billion annually in potential global revenue because of physical piracy, or bogus copies of videos and DVDs of its films. The MPAA doesn't give an estimate for how much online piracy costs the industry annually, but claims the health of the industry is at stake as the copying and distribution of movies online continues to grow unabated. Along with the recording industry, movie studios have tried to shut down companies behind file-sharing software through litigation with little success. The movie industry has also tried to battle piracy by running ads in movie theaters and elsewhere designed to dissuade people from file-sharing films by stressing the risks of identity theft and liability. Up to this point, the studios have stopped short of taking legal action against individuals. Hmm.... I think we had someone this forum who wanted to do this.. i dont remember who it was.. well here you go.. have fun.. I do have one thing to say.. How the HELL do they charge 21.99 for a freakin piece of plastic!? Maybe lower the price and then it would stop! Hell I dont buy a movie until the price had gone down about $7... Or offer a legal download from the studio.. The other thing is that if you dont want your shit ripped off.. then not let people bring their camcorders into the theator.. dumbass...

By MATTHEW BARAKAT Associated Press LEESBURG, Va. -- A brother and sister who sent unsolicited junk e-mail to millions of America Online customers were convicted Wednesday in the nation's first felony prosecution of distributors of spam. After returning their verdict, jurors immediately began deliberating punishments for Jeremy D. Jaynes, 30, and Jessica DeGroot, 28, both of the Raleigh, N.C., area. Each could receive jail terms for fraudulently sending junk mail. A third defendant, Richard Rutkowski, was acquitted. Jurors deliberated 1
