Liberian executions Pulitzer winner Price excited
Texas photographer Larry C. Price says he is as excited as he can be after winning the Pulitzer Prize for spot news photography for a 10 image series from Liberia last year. The shots showed executions on a deserted beach following a coup and were published by the Star-Telegram and distributed by AP. Price, who was initially in Liberia to photograph Baptist missionaries, noted he is getting married in May and sees the award as a happy note.

Stink Gun idea aims to deter crime in Modesto
Modesto body shop owner Matthew Vacante unveils the Stink Gun, a canister releasing a foul odor to drive criminals away. He says the scent lasts 24 to 72 hours and helps identify offenders, while claiming the formula is derived from asphalt and tar and is not harmful. In Martinsburg, scientists plan to send fruit flies to space to study reproduction in zero gravity aboard the shuttle’s fourth or fifth mission.
