Lawson hid the young rhesus macaque monkey under a loose-fitting blouse on a flight from Bangkok, Thailand, to Los Angeles, California, International Airport, pretending she was pregnant, the U.S. Attorneys Office for the Eastern District of Washington said.

Permits are required to possess rhesus monkeys and many other species of animals. Such permits are granted for research, enhancement and conservation purposes. Additionally, transporting such species into the United States requires a customs declaration. Lawson and Ogren had neither.

Facebook Virus Koobface

Facebook Virus Koobface

It looks like the deadly Koobface virus has sunken it's teeth into Facebook.

The virus, which has been looming since last August, infiltrates users accounts and sends emails to their friends advertising some jokes or humorous stories or videos.

What makes it so mean is that these messages are personalized with subject lines such as:

"It Was Hilarious When You Kissed That Guy..."

or something to reel you into glicking the link in the mail.

DON'T! I Repeat ! DO NOT OPEN IT!

By clicking the link you are taken to a dummy site that looks like YouTube and by the time you realize it your computer has been infected.

Wait until Facebook gives the all clear and ...be careful out there!
