New York (DEC) does Small Changes to Big Game Hunting Laws for Fall
N.Y. State Department of Environmental Conservation(DEC) has made some changes to the big game hunting laws for this fall 2011, it was too late for the changes to be included in the hunting manuals of 2011-2012, usually provided when licensees are purchased. Do to the fact that the bills were signed late by Gov. Andrew Cuomo the new changes will not appear on the manuals of 2011-2012.
The changes in which have been made consist of allowing rifles to be used for big games in Cortland County. Also crossbows are only permitted during the muzzle-loading gun season, this will only be for a part of the fall hunting season.
Hunters in Delaware, Sullivan and Ulster counties are now prohibited from killing a spike horn deer, they must have at least one antler with three points. The law applies to all public and private lands and all deer hunting seasons. Only hunters under the age of 17 are exempt and may take any antlered deer with at least one antler measuring three or more inches in length. Deer hunting regulations in all other WMUs were not affected by this legislation.

News: Apple Gadgets Smuggled Using a CROSSBOW and Zipline!!!!
According to China’s police, smugglers were using an old school method to transport iPAD 2s and iPhone 4s from China into Hong Kong. You may wonder how a crossbow and a zipline will come in handy for a smuggling operation.
Well basically the smugglers used a crossbow in which they shot a solid fishing line(300meters in length) across the Sha Tau Kok river where the arrow lodged in a countryside building on the Hong Kong side. Utilizing a good sized wheel and a nylon bag in which was hooked onto the fishing line, the smugglers began to transport the iPad 2s and iPhone 4s in small quantities during the night. That meant there will be no border checks, and no time to hide the devices in a vehicle with the hopes that they would make it across.
