A naked man found in Miami, Florida, eating the face of another naked man growled at a police officer before being shot dead, witnesses say.
The attacker was reportedly warned to back away but when he continued to eat the victim, the officer opened fire several times, killing him.
I was able to save this little fella before my kitties got a hold of him. Poor thing!

The hedgehog’s dilemma, or sometimes the porcupine dilemma, is an analogy about the challenges of human intimacy. It describes a situation in which a group of hedgehogs all seek to become close to one another in order to share their heat during cold weather. However, once accomplished, they cannot avoid hurting one another with their sharp quills. They must step away from one another. Though they all share the intention of a close reciprocal relationship, this may not occur for reasons which they cannot avoid.
The hedgehog’s dilemma suggests that despite goodwill, human intimacy cannot occur without substantial mutual harm, and what results is cautious behavior and weak relationships.
The Doomsday Clock is a symbolic clock face, maintained since 1947 by the board of directors of the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists at the University of Chicago. The closer the clock is to midnight, the closer the world is estimated to be to global disaster. As of January 10, 2012, the Doomsday Clock now stands at five minutes to midnight.

Edmund Kemper shot and killed co-ed Cynthia Schall, a 19-year-old Santa Cruz girl, and put her in the trunk of his car. He carried her body into his mother’s apartment near Santa Cruz, kept it in his bedroom closet for the night and dissected it in the bathtub the next day while his mother was at work. He buried the girl’s head in the back yard “with her face turned toward my bedroom window and, sometimes at night, I talked to her, saying love things, the way you do to a girlfriend or wife.”
