Putin voices ‘disgust’ at Qadhafi coverage

MOSCOW: Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin expressed his “disgust” at the global media Wednesday for its graphic coverage of ousted Libyan leader Muammar Qadhafi’s death. The overwhelming favourite in next year’s Russian presidential elections told an election campaign meeting that he found the TV coverage immoral and blamed journalists for failing a basic ethics test. “Almost the entire Qadhafi family was killed. His body was shown on all the world channels. You could not watch without disgust,” news agencies quoted Putin as saying. “What is that?” Putin exclaimed. “They show a bloodied man, wounded, still alive but getting beaten to ...

TRENTON, N.J. (AP) — A New York man pleaded guilty Thursday to what experts said was the first ever proven case of black-market organ trafficking in the United States. Levy Izhak Rosenbaum admitted in federal court in Trenton that he had brokered three illegal kidney transplants for New Jersey-based customers in exchange for payments of $120,000 or more. He also pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to broker an illegal kidney sale. His attorneys, Ronald Kleinberg and Richard Finkel, said in a statement that their client had performed a life-saving service for desperately ill people who had been languishing on official transplant waiting lists. "The transplants were ...

A former cellmate of jailed Russian tycoon Mikhail Khodorkovsky has filed for political asylum in Britain, saying he is being harrassed and pressured by the authorities, his lawyer said on Thursday. Alexander Kuchma slashed Khodorkovsky's face when they were cellmates at a correctional facility in the remote Chita region in April 2006. Kuchma later claimed he had attacked on orders from the prison authorities. Kuchma has been released and now lives with his mother in Chita. His lawyer Vitaly Cherkasov said his client has recently noticed a number of suspicious incidents. “His house was searched without any legal grounds, and he was visited by two people posing as army draft ...
Study questions outsourcing traffic camera systems

WASHINGTON (AP) — One out of every five Americans lives in a community that pays a for-profit company to install and operate cameras that record traffic violations. A pro-consumer group says that practice could end up putting profits ahead of safety and accuracy. Some contracts require cities to share revenue with camera vendors on a per-ticket basis or through other formulas as a percentage of revenue. Suffolk County, N.Y., for example, diverts half of the revenue from its red-light camera program to its vendor, according to the report being released Thursday by the U.S. Public Interest Research Group. Another type of agreement — conditional "cost-neutral" contracts ...

Steve Jobs, Walter Isaacson’s hotly anticipated bio of the Apple guru came out on Monday, but the media has already got its hands on the book. The notoriously private Jobs gave Isaacson unprecedented access, granting him over 40 interviews. Here, seven revelations: 1. He was really furious about Google’s Android Jobs said Google was guilty of “grand theft” when HTC released an Android phone that borrowed or approximated many of the iPhone’s popular features. Apple promptly sued Google, in one of the early shots of the ongoing mobile patent wars. “I will spend my last dying breath if I need to, and I will spend every penny of Apple’s $40 billion in the ...

Weirdly prescient 1987 sitcom predicted the death of Muammar Gaddafi

There was no shortage of crappy, short-lived genre shows in the 1980s, but only one of them accidentally predicted the death year of a newly deceased Libyan strongman. In this bizarre scene from the pilot of the 1987 "guy comes back from the afterlife to make amends" series Second Chance, St. Peter tosses Gaddafi into the bowels of Hell in the far-off year of 2011. Excuse me for a moment, I'm going to read old episodes of Gobots like tea leaves. [Via Buzzfeed] As in 9/11 another sign of Jew "orchestration."

Shakespeare's hometown protests film challenging authorship

Shakespeare's name is being removed from signs in Warwickshire in a campaign against a new film which questions whether he wrote his plays. The Shakespeare Birthplace Trust is taping over nine road signs for the day to coincide with the premiere of Anonymous at the London Film Festival. It criticised the film as an attempt to "rewrite English culture and history". A memorial in William Shakespeare's home town of Stratford-upon-Avon is being covered with a sheet. The sign on The Shakespeare pub in Welford, where the Bard is said to have enjoyed his last drink, is one of 10 pub signs that are being covered. 'Enormous legacy' The trust said it wanted to highlight ...

One of the greatest revelations that has come out of my research for my book The Natural Enterprise is something that should have been obvious, and should be obvious to all of us: Our education systems prepare us for dependence on employment by large corporations and government organizations. Why? Because this is the most ‘manageable’ way to run the system, and conveniently keeps us in our place. If the system were to equip us to be independent entrepreneurs, there would be a number of unpleasant consequences for the established wealth and power hierarchy: Large employers would have to offer a lot more to attract the top graduates: more money, more freedom, more flexibility.

In his last public appearance, Steve Jobs wore a sweater by exclusive Berlin label Von Rosen. Since his death earlier this month, the company has seen a huge rush in sales of the €420-cashmere turtleneck. The trademark black jumper is now nearly sold out, as Jobs fans worldwide are racing to own a slice of Apple history. In the spring of 2010, company director and self-confessed Apple-enthusiast David von Rosen sent one of their cashmere jumpers to Apple headquarters. “We felt that our design philosophy and Apple’s were on the same wavelength,” he said in an interview with Suddeutsche Zeitung. “We thought it would be awesome if Steve would wear our jumper, ...

Germany might still be known for its high-speed autobahns, but in cities, bicycles are now so popular that a war of words has broken out between drivers and cyclists over who rules the road. Ramsauer: helmet law for cyclists could be inevitable - Society (19 Oct 11) In Berlin, more than 500,000 of the 3.5 million inhabitants daily bike around the city – twice as many as a decade ago – making the most of an extensive network of cycle paths. On Unter den Linden, the capital's celebrated, tree-lined central boulevard, cyclists zoom up and down between the pedestrians and hordes of tourists admiring the Brandenburg Gate.

Most young criminals re-offend after jail

More than two-thirds of young criminals in Germany re-offend after being released from custody – largely due to insufficient preparation made for their release, according to new research. Delegates at a conference on youth incarceration in Greifswald heard that increased staffing of the 29 juvenile detention facilities since 1994 had reduced the re-offending rate by nine percent. “But many former criminals do not cope with their sudden freedom, are unsatisfactorily integrated into society and end up committing new crimes,” said criminology professor Frieder Dünkel at the conference. He said that up to 40 percent of re-offenders commit crimes serious enough to return ...

According to the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, Texas law prohibits the sale of live armadillos, but a few Texans still go after their meat. Click for Full Text!
Albert Einstein - Genius or Fraud?

Albert Einstein -- was he a thief, a liar and a plagiarist? ALBERT EINSTEIN is held up as "a rare genius," who drastically changed the field of theoretical physics. However, using the technique known as 'The Often-Repeated Lie=Truth,' he has been made an idol to young people, and his very name has become synonymous with genius. THE TRUTH, HOWEVER, IS VERY DIFFERENT. Einstein was an inept and moronic person, who could not even tie his own shoelaces; he contributed NOTHING ORIGINAL to the field of quantum mechanics, nor any other science. On the contrary -- he stole the ideas of others, and the Jew-controlled media made him a 'hero.' When we actually examine the ...
Brit community blocks shale gas fracking

Councillors in the Vale of Glamorgan have unanimously rejected an application to test drill for shale gas in the county. They said the potential risk of pollution to ground water following a letter from Welsh Water made the application difficult to accept. Coast Oil and Gas Limited wanted to test a site at the Llandow Industrial Estate near Llantwit Major. The Bridgend-based company said it was likely to appeal the ruling. In its letter Welsh Water said it believed there was "a very small risk" of contamination of its reserve groundwater sites from the proposed exploratory drilling. But it added: "If there is an excessive loss of drilling fluid to the aquifer during the ...

6 Most Mind-Blowing Things Ever Discovered in Space

It's actually really easy to think of space as boring. The planets in our own solar system all seem to be empty rocks or balls of gas, and you find a whole lot of nothing before you get to the next star. Meanwhile, Hollywood's most creative minds can't get past populating the place with planets that look a whole lot like Earth (and specifically, parts of California) featuring monsters, rapey aliens or Muppets. But real space is far, far stranger. You just have to know where to look to find things like ... #6. A Planet Made of Diamond Science fiction writers have this annoying thing they do where they can only think of like five different types of planets. You know, ...
The Best Way to Cook Corn on the Cob for a Crowd?

It's Cooler Corn! Am I the only person who hasn't heard of "cooler corn"? As an obsessive food nerd, you'd expect that I would have at least heard of it, but over the weekend I was blind-sided by the simple genius of this method for cooking loads of corn on the cob perfectly. I was hepped to it while visiting my family in Maine. Short story: We like corn on the cob. And with eight adults at the table, that means a couple of dozen ears. We would have used the lobster pot to cook them all, but the lobster pot was busy steaming lobster. Then my sister, a capable Maine cook with years of camping experience, says "let's do cooler corn!" Before I can ask ...
