Man Shoots Wife, Mistakes Her for Monkey

KUALA LUMPUR (Reuters) - A Malaysian man shot and killed his wife after he mistook her for a monkey :eek: picking fruit in a tree behind their house, the New Straits Times said on Wednesday.

The man, 70, is being held by police for causing death through recklessness after he fired a shotgun at what he thought was a monkey in a mangosteen tree on Monday, the newspaper said.

His wife, 68, had used a ladder to climb into the tree and was picking the tropical fruit when she was shot. She was pronounced dead on arrival at a hospital, the paper said. The couple lived in central Malaysia and had raised 13 children.

This is so funny that it just can't be sad. He didn't know that his wife climbed the tree to pick fruit? Even if it was a monkey, why shoot it? Was it an attack monkey? What a sad way to go...

Gunman kills 3-year-old child in day-care
Two women critically wounded; One child injured

Tuesday, September 28, 2004 Posted: 5:02 PM EDT (2102 GMT)


(CNN) -- Detroit police searched Tuesday for a man who opened fire in a Detroit home day-care center, killing a 3-year-old child and critically wounding two women, officials said.

Police Chief Ella Bully-Cummings told reporters that the man was wearing a black jacket and black pants and was carrying a steel blue, automatic gun.

The 3-year-old girl died at a hospital, police said.

Bully-Cummings said two women, ages 41 and 23, were shot and were in critical condition.

A 7-month-old :mad: :mad: was also in critical condition, "probably as a result of being dropped," the chief said.

Police detained a man, hoping he could help identify the suspect, said police spokesman James Tate.

"It appears as though this is not random," Bully-Cummings said of the shooting.

She said witnesses reported that the man came to the door, "words were exchanged" and then the man went inside, shooting.

Tate said the suspect asked for a "particular individual" at the door.

I think this man knew he was shooting his wife, and not a monkey. The article said she used a "ladder" to climb the tree. I may be wrong, but we all know that monkeys do not use ladders to climb trees :rolleyes: Think about it... if you walked outside and saw a ladder against the tree, and then see something big moving around in the tree, wouldn't you think that a "HUMAN" climbed the ladder and was in the tree??? Monkeys just don't use ladders to climb trees.

I think he should have thought of a better excuse. :rolleyes:

Teacher Investigated for Phony Test

Officials say a tenth-grade geometry teacher at Oxon Hill High School administered what is being called a "fake math proficiency test." It contained math word problems beginning with phrases like "Jose has two ounces of cocaine," "Willie gets $200 for a stolen BMW," and "Raul gets six years for murder."

Ok, so the school is going to take the appropriate action against the teacher. But what about the kids and the test? They all gotta re-take (or just take, really) that exam over again. If you have ever seen kids test, you know what it's like for them. That is so sad. And a shame, to boot. What would make you do some stupid mess like that? You thought the kids could relate, huh? I be that's what he says.

Alcohol Accidentally Served To Students In Alexandria (VA)
 
This is too crazy! Serving margaritas to elementary school kids.

"The faculty's not a big drinking group, and so we had the mixed margarita together -- the tequila and the mix -- and we put the pitcher in the back of the refrigerator," said Headmaster Alexander Harvey IV. "Next day, school starts. Everyone's focusing on kids and making it a good first couple of days of school."

But on the first day of school, the milk supply ran out after two lunch periods, so students were served what an employee thought was limeade. It turned out to be the leftover margaritas and was served to third-, fourth- and fifth-grade students.

BUCHAREST (Reuters) - A elderly Romanian man mistook his penis for a chicken's neck, cut it off and his dog rushed up and ate it, the state Rompres news agency said Monday.

It said 67 year-old Constantin Mocanu, from a village near the southeastern town of Galati, rushed out into his yard in his underwear to kill a noisy chicken keeping him awake at night.

"I confused it with the chicken's neck," Mocanu, who was admitted to the emergency hospital in Galati, was quoted as saying. "I cut it ... and the dog rushed and ate it."

Doctors said the man, who was brought in by an ambulance bleeding heavily, was now out of danger.

I know he's old and stuh, but how the f*** could you mistake your manhood for a
chicken's neck?

Swearing Student Faces Jail Time
North Carolina Teen Says Charge Is Overreaction

POSTED: 1:08 pm EDT October 10, 2004

WILMINGTON, N.C. -- A North Carolina teenager may have to go to jail for using foul language with a high school teacher.

Glenn Gattis and his parents don't deny that he cursed or has had other disciplinary problems at Ashley High School in Wilmington. But they said the misdemeanor charge of disorderly conduct is an overreaction.

The 17-year-old Gattis said he became frustrated and used bad language when he got in trouble for being late to class again. He said he was ultimately stopped by deputies working as school resource officers, who gave him a citation for using language meant to provoke violence. He was also suspended for three days.

Gattis' mother said she could understand if her son had to serve detention at school. But he could get up to 30 days in jail. The family has hired a lawyer to fight the charge.

School officials aren't commenting.

11-year-old held up at gunpoint by man demanding 'lunch money'

Wednesday, October 13, 2004
Stephen Hudak
Plain Dealer Reporter

A Cleveland sixth-grader was held up at gunpoint Tuesday morning at an East Side bus stop by a man who demanded his lunch money.

"It's an act of serious desperation," said Cleveland police spokesman Lt. Wayne Drummond. "How much money can you expect to get from an 11-year-old kid on his way to school?"

Gregory Darby had $2 in his pants pocket but said he was so scared, he forgot.

Gregory, a student at Willson Middle School, was confronted as he waited alone at Wade Park Avenue and East 88th Street for a bus to take him the 1.7 miles he otherwise would have to walk to school.

His mother, Chery Darby, said her son takes the Greater Cleveland Regional Transit Authority bus to school because he lives 3/10ths of a mile too close to Willson to ride the school bus and because her 1992 Aerostar van is too unreliable.

If he walks, he crosses vacant lots and passes boarded-up homes and barred stores.

The boy described the gunman to police as a light-skinned black man, about 6 feet 2, 160 pounds, with an Afro and wearing a black-hooded sweatshirt and dark pants.

Gregory said the man seized him by the left arm.

"Where do you live?" he asked.

Gregory fibbed. "On 88th."

The man then pointed the gun: "Give me all your lunch money!"

Gregory said he froze, the man cursed him, and ran behind the buildings from which he had appeared. Gregory ran, too, bursting into tears on his way home where his mom was getting ready for work.

He and his mother spent the morning with detectives, scouring mug shots.

Chery Darby said her son is an unlikely target. He dresses the way they live: cheaply.

"Look at his shoes," she said. "They're K-Swiss. They're not Jordans."

Drummond said police would patrol the neighborhood closely before and after school, hoping to calm Gregory's fears and the worries of other neighborhood kids.

"Kids need to feel safe," he said.

Howard: No Natural Hair!
Cheerleaders, Performance Groups Allegedly Reject Hopefuls with Natural Hair


By Shaleem Thompson
www.blackcollegewire.org

Howard University's tryouts for cheerleading, band and the Ohh-laa-laa dance squad have ended with allegations of discrimination based on hair, body type and criteria other than talent.

"They went around basically telling everyone their imperfections, saying you would have to shave your legs, wax your eyebrows . . ." said one "flashy flags" contender who allegedly received comments from the coordinator about her short, natural hair.

"Hmm -- I don't know what we would do with your hair if you were chosen for the team," coordinator Lauren White said, according to the trainee. Another leader suggested an instant weave.

"The band has to be uniform in terms of looks as well as performance," said band director John Newson. "It does not matter what they do with their hair all year round, but when it is time to perform," straight hair "is the requirement."

For some students, such as band member Marcus Ware, assimilation is an important part of the organization.

"The band requires unity in all aspects, so if someone does not fit that requirement, they would just stand out," Ware said.

However, the forced uniformity does not sit well with others.
"This perpetuates stereotyping in our society [for people] of the African descent and we should allow all types of persons to take part in this activity," said Debra Roberts, a psychology professor.

Band Director Newson's assertion that "relaxed hair is my preference as well as everyone else's" leaves many begging to differ, including acting major Atrice Williams, a sophomore.

"I would think nothing of seeing someone with natural hair actually performing on the flashy flag wavers," Williams said. "I see many of the beautiful black women on the HU campus rocking the natural look, and the style is so common it might be weird not to see that on the squad."

A current flag squad member who requested anonymity said, "It was decided that we should all have straight hair during performances and we don't have a problem with it. It has nothing to do with changing your identity, but just being uniform in appearance."

White, the coordinator, was asked about a heavy student who tried out for the band and said she was shown a size "large" that was too small for her. The student, Shalondra Gardner, said she was given the choice of wearing it or losing weight.

"Being a full-figured woman, I know how it feels to be stereotyped," White said. "I showed them all the three sizes of the uniform, making it clear that it was pre-ordered and this was the requirement. I would never pressure someone to lose weight. The decision was hers and she was welcome to come to practice."

White also said that her statements to the "flashy flags" contender about hair were misinterpreted. She said she told tryouts that the band requires uniformity in all aspects, so that for performances everyone is required to have straight hair. If the tryout were chosen, she would have to put in an instant weave or a wig piece. It was not said in a downgrading way, White said, maintaining that the school was not trying to influence personal hair choices.

Newson denied size discrimination in the band's dance groups, saying the reality was that uniforms are French cut and must be worn tastefully.

Woman Allegedly Steals Boyfriend's Ashes

PORTAGE, Wis. (AP) - Sheriff's deputies have arrested a woman for digging up her dead boyfriend's ashes from a Columbia County cemetery more than 10 years ago and drinking the beer that was buried with him, possibly out of spite for his family.
Karen Stolzmann, now 44, was arrested Tuesday in a case Columbia County Detective Wayne Smith calls ``twisted and bizarre.''

Sheboygan County District Attorney Joe De Cecco said Thursday he would likely determine this week if possession charges should be filed in his county since the urn was found at Stolzmann's Sheboygan home. A call to the Columbia County district attorney's office was not immediately returned Thursday.
Stolzmann has already been charged with a misdemeanor count of concealing stolen property.

Michael Hendrickson, 27, died in 1992 from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. His family contacted authorities three weeks ago because they found out his remains had been stolen.

An exhumation revealed Hendrickson's cremated remains were missing from Cambria Cemetery in Cambria. Beer and cigarettes that were buried with him were also missing.

Sheriff's deputies investigated and were led to Stolzmann. Detectives searched her home and found her hiding in the shower.

The remains, located in her garage, had ``identifiable things to make us believe they're (Hendrickson's),'' Smith said.

Some of Hendrickson's memorabilia was also recovered, but Smith believes Stolzmann drank the beer buried with the remains.

Really. I have heard of them being placed in a mausoleum, but not buried.

Did they get some sort of tip that she had the ashes? I mean, this happened ten years ago. What made them just now worry about him being missing?

Teacher Jailed After Fistfight With Pupil's Mother
Parent Ends Up in Emergency Room

MACON, Ga. (Oct. 22) - A teacher-parent brawl in front of 19 fourth-
grade pupils sent a mother to the emergency room and the teacher to
jail.

Teacher Katrina Ann Rucker, 30, is charged with battery and cruelty
to children for allegedly beating a parent who tried to retrieve her
daughter's book bag.

According to police interviews, parent Lurella Amica went to Bruce-
Weir Elementary School Thursday morning to deliver a note to her 9-
year-old daughter.

At the classroom door, the girl told her mother that Rucker had
thrown her bag in the trash can, the report stated. Amica entered
the classroom and tried to get the book bag, but Rucker grabbed for
it and the two struggled, the report said.

After Amica wrestled the bag away, police say Rucker picked up a
chair and hit her in the back, knocking Amica to the floor. Rucker
then began punching Amica in the face and body.

During the fight, the girl was reportedly crying for her teacher to
stop hitting her mother and ran up to them. Rucker then allegedly
hit the child, pulled her hair and pushed her out of the way before
starting to strike the mother again.

Rucker dragged Amica by the hair outside the classroom, according to
the report.

"A school administrator and another teacher had to pull the teacher
off the mother," Macon police spokeswoman Melanie Hofmann said.

In Rucker's account of the story, she said Amica hit her hand during
the initial struggle, Hofmann said.

"The teacher said she was defending herself because she gets a shot
in that hand and it hurt," Hofmann said.

Amica was in stable condition in the emergency room of The Medical
Center of Central Georgia late Thursday night.

Rucker was placed on administrative leave.

Sylvia McGee, Bibb County's deputy superintendent, said school staff
called the parent or guardian of each child in the class. Social
workers counseled students, and only Amica's daughter left school
early.

Principal Karen Konke sent letters to parents about the incident.

"Let me assure you the school is safe and that our students have
been involved in appropriate instructional activities throughout the
day," Konke wrote.
