Albert Camus died instantly when the car he was travelling in spun off the road in icy conditions and hit a tree An Italian newspaper suggests that the KGB might have been behind the crash that led to the killing of French literary giant Albert Camus in 1960. Corriere della Sera claims that there may have been a secret behind the accident, stressing that Soviet spies may have killed Camus for criticizing the Soviet Union. The newspaper presented the theory based on the remarks of Italian academic and poet Giovanni Catelli who noted that a passage in a diary written by Czech poet and translator Jan Zabrana and published as a book entitled Cely Zivot was missing from the Italian ...

Poster Comment:The people involved in this sport are called recortadors. The object is not to kill the bull but to jump over him in various ways and avoid getting the horn(s). I don't like traditional bullfights where the bull almost always gets killed but I like the true skills shown in this "bull fight."

In a SPIEGEL interview, William Dutton of the Oxford Internet Institute discusses how fundamentally the World Wide Web has changed our lives since its creation 20 years ago, offering his views on how it helps communities organize and its emergence as a 'Fifth Estate,' helping hold both governments and media around the globe accountable. SPIEGEL: On that Aug. 6, Tim Berners-Lee, creator of the World Wide Web, made his invention accessible to the Internet community. He did so in a discussion forum called alt.hypertext ...

Was still 110F at 6:00 PM when I played my Wed. night mini-tournament last night, it was still 106F when I was driving home at 9:00 PM. Same deal Tuesday night when it was 109F at 6:00 PM and I was playing at a different course. I consider it a free sauna-session.

I've had to adjust the bi-level temperature setting on my truck to blow more cold air into the footwells to counter the heat radiating up from the pavement. Yard is showing large cracks in ...

First Look: BMW i8 Concept (hybrid) Post Date: 2011-08-01 04:27:43 by Tatarewicz
1 Comments
BMW's first plug-in hybrid vehicle will focus not just in saving the earth, but also on satisfying its driver's need for speed. Like the Chevrolet Volt, the BMW i8 concept combines a traditional gasoline engine with an electric drivetrain. According to BMW, the i8 can be as fuel-efficient as the best hybrid cars, while still delivering sports car-like performance. An electric motor drives the front wheels, while a traditional gasoline engine drives the rears. The i8 can thus act as a front-, rear-, or all-wheel-drive car depending on which power sources are running. An "energy tunnel" containing the battery and drivetrain electronics runs down the middle of the vehicle, ...

Dialing a good read in a phone booth Post Date: 2011-07-30 06:16:45 by Tatarewicz

As mobile phones grow in popularity, telephone booths have become rare in German cities. But a new project in Berlin is hoping to turn them into a sanctuary for another endangered technology books. Moises Mendoza reports. Technologies may change, but basic human needs never do. Once ubiquitous telephone booths have lost relevance in world dominated by mobile phones, even though people still need to communicate with each other. And reading remains key to human existence even if books are slowly being replaced by iPads and the internet. So it's perhaps surprising that someone eventually decided to marry the two antiquated technologies for a literacy project. But Konrad Kutt of ...
The crucifix row that shows Amy Winehouse has become a religious icon Post Date: 2011-07-29 20:13:07 by X-15

I have just seen an extraordinary scene outside Amy Winehouses house just round the corner from my flat in Camden, north London. As I bicycled past, a woman in her late 30s, dressed in dark clothes and a trilby, started taking photographs on her phone of a dummy on a crucifix (pictured) that she had placed against the railings in Camden Square. An incensed local man, in his 70s, started shouting at her, Its outrageous. She was Jewish. Who else thinks this is outrageous? We must call the police. Are you Jewish yourself? asked the cabbie who had brought the woman to the square. No but its still outrageous. When the woman ...
SS an "Entitlement"??? Post Date: 2011-07-29 17:38:43 by ndcorup

My Wife is in an on-line discussion on a "social network" and it turns out that Many folks don't/didn't know that SS is entirely paid for (unless you're Really Old, or a Leach on Society) by The EMPLOYEE and the EMPLOYER. You Paid for it. The Government acts as if it's a Gift from them. They are the leaches on it, along with most SSI and Many Disability claimants (fakes). Don't get in an uproar over that comment. That's where the bulk of the fraud is. Obama and almost all other Pols are casting it in the "Entitlement Pool". If you and your employer's payments into SS were accumulated at simple interest over your working life, there is a ...
Half of men would ditch woman who gained weight? Post Date: 2011-07-28 21:55:29 by Tatarewicz

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Men are more concerned with their partner's body type than women but they also seem to value family more highly, according to a new survey released on Tuesday. Nearly half of men questioned in the poll of 70,000 people said they would ditch a partner who gained weight, compared to only 20 percent of women. Two-third of men also said they had fantasized about their partner's friends, while only one-third of women had done so. "Even as men are getting more comfortable with meeting their girlfriends online and less anxious about who she's 'friending' there, other romantic behaviors have proven to be timeless ones: chivalry isn't dead, size ...
Firefighters Get $2M in Reverse Discrimination Case Post Date: 2011-07-28 14:23:52 by Jethro Tull

A group of New Haven firefighters who won a reverse discrimination case before the U.S. Supreme Court in 2009 have won a combined $2 million in damages from the city. The Supreme Court ruled that officials violated white firefighters' civil rights when they threw out 2003 promotion tests results because too few minorities did well. The firefighters returned to U.S. District Court in Connecticut seeking back pay, damages and legal fees. Court papers indicate 20 firefighters have accepted offers from the city for back pay, additional pension benefits and interest. The firefighters will receive about $2 million and three years of pension credit and the city will pay their ...
