Canadian Press ELDRIDGE, Iowa (AP) - Pillaging, plundering and grog, sweet grog; James Hill is happy to discuss the finer points of pirate life. But first, you'll have to hear him out on lobbying reform.
"Lobbying should be illegal," said Hill, a self-professed "drunken pirate" who is running for Congress as an independent in Iowa's 1st District. "It amounts to taxation without representation." |

Canadian Press PORT HURON, Mich. (AP) - Authorities confiscated mummified human remains from a woman who was auctioning them on EBay, after a browser on the Internet auction site called police.
Lynn Barrett, 45, told police she obtained the mummy from a friend who said he found them in a Detroit school he helped demolish nearly 30 years ago. Barrett told the Port Huron Times Herald that she was selling the remains for a friend, and contacted a lawyer before advertising on EBay. |

October 13, 2006 PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. - Two adults and two children were found shot to death Friday along an isolated stretch of Florida's Turnpike, with the woman clutching the two children in an apparent attempt to protect them, authorities said.
Florida Highway Patrol troopers got a call shortly before 8 a.m. after someone spotted the bodies of a man, woman, boy and girl off the southbound shoulder of the highway in Port St. Lucie, the St. Lucie County Sheriff's Office said. The adults were both in their 20s or 30s, and the children appeared to be between the ages of 4 and 6, Sheriff Ken Mascara said. All had been shot multiple times, he said. |
