			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As we <a href="http://paulschreiber.com/blog/2008/03/31/you-fucked-with-the-wrong-marine-part-ii/">read</a> <a href="http://paulschreiber.com/blog/2007/06/27/you-fucked-with-the-wrong-marine/">previously</a>, sometimes criminals try picking on old folks thinking they&#8217;re easy targets. Then they get their asses kicked.</p>
<p>This <a href="http://articles.sun-sentinel.com/2011-08-12/news/fl-boynton-robbery-attempt-20110812_1_gun-robber-wrestler">continues</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p>Seated on the passenger&#8217;s side, Kemp was closing the door of his 2011 Volkswagen Jetta when the robber, identified as Richard Nowling, 41, stuck a gun in his face.</p>
<p>Thinking of his wife&#8217;s safety, the 5-foot-7 Kemp instinctively pushed the gun away. But the robber started to pistol whip Kemp in the head, police said.</p>
<p>&#8220;He started to hit me, so I reacted from there,&#8221; a bruised but smiling Kemp said Friday. &#8220;I got him out into the street and held his arm. I foot-sweeped him down and I was trying to get a hold of the gun. He banged me up a little bit but my main concern was the gun.&#8221;</p>
<p>Pulling out more wrestling moves, Kemp maneuvered the suspect into a rear naked choke hold, or &#8220;sleeper hold,&#8221; a popular submission technique in mixed martial arts.</p></blockquote>

<blockquote><p>
Physicians and hospital leaders in Cedar Rapids began by counting how many CAT scans they were doing, only to find that in just one year 52,000 scans were done in a community of 300,000 people. â€œI was embarrassed for us,â€ confides Jim Levett, a cardiac surgeon and the head of a large physician group in Cedar Rapids. Itâ€™s just not likely that 1/6 of the population needed a CAT scan in a given year.

<p>The trend continues.</p>
<p>In February, <a href="http://cbs3.com/watercooler/Ellen.Basinski.70.2.946658.html">70-year-old Ellen Basinski beat up some robbers with a saucepan</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p>
The feisty Basinski was on the phone with her husband, a local judge, when the would-be robbers entered the house.</p>
<p>&#8220;I was angry,&#8221; she says.</p>
<p>As one of them started rummaging through her purse, she grabbed her favorite trademark Lagasse saucepan and, as the famous chef himself likes to say, BAM!</p>
<p>&#8220;He told the police it almost knocked him out,&#8221; Basinski says. &#8220;I gave it a good whack. I figured, &#8216;You might get only one swing, lady!&#8217; So make it good!&#8221;

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/dn/latestnews/stories/032609dnmetcopstop.3e9c080.html">From the <em>Dallas Morning News</em></a>:</p>
<p>Jackass &#8220;officer&#8221; pulls his gun during a traffic stop, then takes 13 minutes to write a ticket. Oh yeah, Moats&#8217; mother-in-law died while he waited for the ticket to be written.</p>
<blockquote><p>Kunkle said Officer Robert Powell has been placed on paid administrative leave in connection with an incident last week in which he stopped a family rushing to visit a dying mother, detaining them for 13 minutes to write a traffic ticket.<br />
&#8230;<br />
During the traffic stop, caught on the officerâ€™s in-car camera, Powell berated the driver, 26-year-old NFL running back Ryan Moats, and threatened him with arrest for running a traffic light.</p>
<p>â€œI can screw you over,â€ said Powell, 25. â€œIâ€™d rather not do that.â€<br />
&#8230;<br />
Powell drew his gun and yelled at her to get back in.<br />
&#8230;<br />
Moats and Collinsworthâ€™s father went into the hospital, where they found Collinsworth had died, with her daughter at her side.

<blockquote><p>A boy in his mid-teens learned Wednesday afternoon that it is not a good idea to try to rob a former U.S. Marine at knifepoint, even if the former Marine is 84 years old, police said today.<br />
&#8230;<br />
The man then put his bags on the ground and told the boy that if he stepped closer he would be sorry. When the boy stepped closer, the man kicked him in the groin, knocking him to the sidewalk, Bair said. The ex-Marine picked up his grocery bags and walked home, leaving the boy doubled over, Bair said.</p></blockquote>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The <cite>Manchester Evening News</cite>, a British rag is reporting a lottery scratchcard has been withdrawn from sale &#8220;<a href="http://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/s/1022757_cool_cash_card_confusion">because players couldn&#8217;t understand it</a>.&#8221;Apparently your average Brit is <a href="http://verizonmath.blogspot.com/2006/12/verizon-doesnt-know-dollars-from-cents.html">well-qualified for a job at Verizon</a>:<br />
<blockquote> Tina Farrell, from Levenshulme, called Camelot after failing to win with several cards.The 23-year-old, who said she had left school without a maths GCSE, said: &#8220;On one of my cards it said I had to find temperatures lower than -8. The numbers I uncovered were -6 and -7 so I thought I had won, and so did the woman in the shop. But when she scanned the card the machine said I hadn&#8217;t.&#8221;I phoned Camelot and they fobbed me off with some story that -6 is higher &#8211; not lower &#8211; than -8 but I&#8217;m not having it.&#8221;I think Camelot are giving people the wrong impression &#8211; the card doesn&#8217;t say to look for a colder or warmer temperature, it says to look for a higher or lower number. Six is a lower number than 8. Imagine how many people have been misled.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
