    Hoax Web site jabs anti-illegal immigrant U.S. town - Reuters via Scientific American
    Hazleton's immigration act has been temporarily blocked by a federal judge pending a lawsuit against the town brought by immigrant supporters, including the American Civil Liberties Union. It is expected to be heard in early 2007.

    Hazleton is a former coal-mining town of 31,000 people in the eastern part of the state.

    Barletta said he has no idea who created the site, adding: 'Whoever did that will certainly be getting coal for Christmas.'
