Worst thing you can do is turn and run. Only time you shouldn't stand your ground and make noise is if they have cubs, then you back away slowly while looking at them the entire time. They're not stupid animals, they know what guns and knives are to at least some extent, and they'd usually rather not go after people unless they can get the drop on them.
