*	Attention hackers, WIBU-Systems is [offering $40,000][1] to anyone who can remove its anti-piracy software from an application. Registration starts next week at MacWorld and the challenge will run for six weeks.

*	Macworld [reports][2] that Adobe's Premiere software, which abandoned the Mac platform several years ago, will be returning to OS X. The new version will run on Intel-based machines and will be part of the Adobe Production Studio suite.

*	Here's a Google Maps mash-up you never wanted: locations of plane crashes. Aviation Marine Insurance has taken FAA and NTSB GPS data and created [AVCRASH][3] which plots out the location of plane crashes. [via [Jeremy Zawodny][4]]

*	Amazon is already [listing Apple's iLife '07][5] software, which seems to confirm that a new version will be announced at next week's MacWorld show. The existence of the software shouldn't come as too much of a surprise since Apple has consistently announced upgrades to the iLife suite at Macworld for several years now.

*	And last but not least, a Monkey Bites welcome to the 110th congress who begin work today. Can we get some net neutrality legislation already?
