at California beaches: link to news.
"Lucas Ransom, a 19-year-old student at the University of California, Santa Barbara, was bodyboarding with friend Matthew Garcia off Surf Beach some 130 miles northwest of Los Angeles on Friday when the shark pulled him under the water. He resurfaced with his leg nearly severed amid what Garcia told The Associated Press was a wave of pure red."
Horrible.
Still in shock at the death of Fran Crippen.
For anyone interested in the topic of the wrongly convicted, an excellent read is "Actual Innocence." It's by the Innocence Project guys and is a disturbing read. Overzealous prosecutors are only one part of the "problem." Faulty police techniques and crime "labs" with shoddy practices also contribute to the convictions of the actually innocent.
