Honda Fit/Jazz, originally called 'Fitta'

The Honda Fit is a five-door hatchback subcompact car, manufactured by the Honda Motor Company of Japan, was first introduced in June 2001.

Honda originally intended to name the car ‘Fitta’, but when it was to be launched in Scandinavia at the beginning of the new century they realized that ‘Fitta’ wasn’t the most appropriate name to give a car in these parts of the world.

"Fitta" more or less exactly to the English word – 'c*nt', In Swedish, Norwegian and Danish.

Colored Shirt Fatigue Ignites Nude Farang Protest

By Felix Lynn

BANGKOK: -- A group of naked foreigners dubbed the “no shirts,†have been rounded up by Bangkok police after they streaked nude down Sukhumvit Soi 4 yesterday in protest over the stalemate between the Red Shirts and the yellow shirted backed government.

“We love Thailand! We love Thai people! But we hate the color of their shirts, be they red or be they yellow,†shouted one of the portly streakers as chuckling Thai police dragged his naked form off the pavement.

The spontaneous protest of some 50 foreigners erupted after a group of drunk German tourists, swaggering from the balcony of the infamous Nana Plaza beer bar the Cathouse, inspired and rallied other Europeans and North Americans to strip and run naked down the street.

Witnesses heard chants of “no shirts! No shirts!†Others reported hearing variations of ‘I’m hot. I’m naked. And I’m not going to take it anymore.â€

Earlier, the Germans had returned to Nana Plaza after attempting a sight-seeing tour that was delayed and eventually cancelled due to continuing protests around the city. They began to drink and in their drunken disappointment at not seeing the reclining Buddha, led a fierce protest out of the popular Bangkok nightspot.

The anti-government Red Shirts have taken to the streets twice in the last year. Their protests followed the sustained Yellow Shirt protest that brought down the former government.

One streaker who evaded capture by the Thai police said, “It’s time tourists, expats, and poverty packers voiced their displeasure at Thailand’s political situation. I feel like I am trapped in a go-go bar with a girl who is ready to go and nobody wants to collect my barfine.â€

A spokesman from the Thai Culture Ministry, Boonlert Weng, said, “The Nana Entertainment Plaza is no place for foreigners to run naked and free. Foreigners should know Thai culture strictly forbids nakedness and nudeness and respect should be the order.â€

Asked if his annoyance had anything to do with the fact that the majority of the nude foreign protesters were old, fat, and mostly bald, Somchai said, “Well, I don’t know.â€

Police said each would be slapped with fines totaling whatever they had in their wallets.

No word as yet if the protests will continue.

http://finance.yahoo.com/banking-budgeting/article/109237/if-you-were-billionaire-for-five-hours

When Paul Fischer checked his bank account Friday night, he had a happy surprise. His balance had exploded to $88,888,888,888.88. A very lucky number indeed, and close to $89 billion.

Of course, the balance was a technical error by SunTrust Bank (NYSE: STI - News), which quickly fixed the problem. It also may have occurred in other accounts.

"You say, 'Eighty-eight billion, what can I do with that?'" said Mr. Fischer, who owns a jewelry concessionaire for Florida theme parks. "Maybe a handful of us could have brought down SunTrust Bank."

Mr. Fischer had other ideas as well. Before the problem was fixed, he asked a SunTrust rep if he could move the money to an interest-bearing account until it was reclaimed and donate the interest to charity. Total interest: more than $7.3 million.

The bank said no.

The money was stripped out of his account by Saturday morning.

"It's all gone. I'm poor again," he said. "I was a billionaire for five hours."

This kind of bank error happens frequently. But Mr. Fischer raises an interesting question: What if, for five hours, you truly did have $89 billion?

What would you do with the money? The ground rules are that you would have to give the money back — and whatever you bought or invested with it — after five hours.

I'd buy a now arse because mine has a crack and a hole in it.

Vatican warns media to stop basing reports on things that definitely happened

The Vatican newspaper has launched a scathing attack on the world’s media after it used ‘facts’ to report that a Vatican office that was definitely led by the Pope, definitely ignored a complaint about a priest over some definite child abuse.

A Vatican newspaper editorial said the media claims barely even referred to “faithâ€, choosing instead to base the attack on the Pope around things that had “definitely happenedâ€.

The editorial continued, “Facts are not something the church deals in, for blatantly obvious reasons, so we don’t think you should use them when reporting on us - it is only fair.â€

“Look, if the Church only dealt in ‘facts’, the Bible would be about a page long and it would simply be a list of places that were definitely around at that time, plus maybe the names of a few kings.â€

“That’s what your so called ‘facts’ do you see, they make everything boring and real.â€

Proof

A Vatican spokespersons went on to explain that just because a series of facts points to something having happened, doesn’t mean it definitely did.

He said, “It’s the exact opposite of how we work, actually. There are many things which we say definitely happened, despite a complete absence of any factual evidence whatsoever.â€

“So when you take that to its logical conclusion, lots of factual evidence must mean that it definitely didn’t happen. Right?â€

“Just because you have proof that someone reported to then Cardinal Ratzinger about some proven child abuse, and further proof that no action was ever taken, doesn’t give you the right to say he ignored it. It might have got lost in the post.â€

“Look, we are men of God, we have absolutely no reason in the world to lie about this.â€

“Actually, thinking about it, the Italian postal service IS very unreliable you know. You should print that, definitely.â€

US enhances air security checks

Passenger being patted down at Paris, Charles de Gaulle airport

The rules apply to all travellers heading to the United States

The US has announced that it will begin profiling US-bound passengers to determine who should get extra screening.

The measures will replace mandatory enhanced screening of all travellers from 14 nations, brought in after the failed attack on a flight in December.

Travellers will be picked out according to how closely they match intelligence on potential terrorist threats.

The new screening strategy results from a review ordered by President Obama.

'Intelligence-led'

Department of Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano said the new measures would use "real-time, threat-based intelligence along with multiple, random layers of security, both seen and unseen, to more effectively mitigate evolving terrorist threats."

The US began notifying air carriers on Thursday and the new protocols are being implemented as of Friday, 2 April 2010, a senior administration official told the BBC.

The New York Times says the new strategy will more surgically target those individuals security personnel are concerned about and have intelligence for.

"This is not a system that can be called profiling in the traditional sense. It is intelligence-based," the newspaper quoted an official as saying.

Passengers were told to expect increased use of explosives trace detection, advanced imaging technology, sniffer dogs and pat downs.

The measures will apply to US citizens, as well as foreigners travelling to America.

'No fly' list

The US government currently has a 6,000-name "no fly" list of suspected terrorists, who are banned from flights to or within US territory.

This will be supplemented by cross-referenced information that may see passengers subject to further screening even if their names are not flagged, the Wall Street Journal reported.

The screening will take into account characteristics like nationality, age, recently visited countries, and partial names, the newspaper said.

While the US does not have the authority to screen passengers in foreign airports, it can sanction air carriers if they do not agree to follow US guidelines for international aviation security.

A 23-year-old Nigerian man - Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab - has been charged with attempting to destroy a plane after he allegedly tried to detonate a bomb on a passenger jet arriving in the US on 25 December 2009.

Abdulmutallab was overpowered by passengers and crew shortly before the Northwest Airlines plane landed in Detroit from Amsterdam.

In the wake of that incident new rules were instated requiring extra screening for passengers from, or travelling through Afghanistan, Algeria, Cuba, Iran, Iraq, Lebanon, Libya, Nigeria, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen.

Kinky Swedish mums want more sex

Swedish mums are a kinky lot and want far more sex than they are actually getting, according to a survey done by trendy mummy magazine Mama.

Contrary to popular belief, mums don't just think about nappies, baby food and getting some sleep. They want more nookie and they want it now.

Apparently, 43 percent of mums under the age of 29 own a dildo and almost 28 percent of those questioned in the Mama survey have checked out online porn.

Having said that, 31 percent of those surveyed think their man's freshly showered body is the greatest turn-on. Some mums would prefer a completely different man altogether: 7 percent of mums have been unfaithful after becoming mothers.

Back to the kinky stuff: 39 percent of the Swedish mums surveyed have had anal sex and 23 percent fantasize about other men or women during sexual intercourse. 37 percent of the younger mums (under age 29) have had lesbian fantasies. 2 percent have had group sex and 23 percent of mums under the age of 29 use handcuffs as part of sex play.

But the most telling statistic in the survey - though not exactly surprising - is that 60 percent of mums simply want more frequent sex. They would like to have sex at least once or twice a week but only 38 percent of them actually get it that often.

Many parents downsize sexual activities once they get kids but Swedish mums (and dads) are making an effort to combat this. 38 percent have even had sex whilst their baby slept in the same bed next to them.

Most mums can multitask in their sleep but find it difficult to find the time for sex. So it is no surprise that sex starved mums have turned to their diaries with 28 percent of Mama magazine readers actually block booking sex dates in their diaries.

Given that the Swedish calendar is organized according to week numbers, this is probably an excellent way to work out whether you are getting enough per year.

The Mama survey questioned 918 Mama readers in an internet survey carried out in co-operation with RAM (Research-and analysis of media).

Danish artist dresses up her baby as Hitler, Stalin and Saddam to show 'the evil inside all of us'

A Danish artist who dressed her baby as Hitler, Stalin and other dictators says her work is necessary to explore the meaning of evil.

Nina Maria Kleivan’s baby daughter Faustina appears in a series of photos dressed as reviled historical figures from the 20th Century.

The baby girl, just a few months old, poses in a Swastika armband as the Nazi leader, in a beret and fatigues as Saddam Hussein and in a turban as the Ayatolla Khomenei.

Faustina also appears as Benito Mussolini, Chairman Mao, Idi Amin, Augusto Pinochet and Slobodan Milosevic.

Kleivan told Haartez.com: ‘We all have evil within us. Even small children are evil towards each other.

‘Even my daughter could end up ruling Denmark with an iron fist. The possibility is still there. You never know.’

The artist began experimenting with her ideas after a medical condition kept her in hospital for two months and then in a wheelchair for a further four months.

Unable to reach her studio, she found a canvas in her baby daughter and began sewing the tiny outfits.

She admitted the Hitler and Stalin costumes were the hardest, particularly after her husband complained after seeing his daughter in a Swastika armband.

She explained: ‘â€I'm aware that you're an artist, but this is wrong,†he told me. I've pondered that a lot myself: Could I really do this? I agree it's on the verge, especially Hitler, whom I and most others view as the incarnation of evil. He and Stalin were the hardest to do. It hurt.'

Kleivan’s father was a member of the Norweigan resistance movement who had been held in a German prison camp.

As a result, she grew up with a ‘tremendous hatred’ of the German’s and fantasised about killing the guard who imprisoned her father.

Kleivan insists: ‘This is not a deliberate provocation, it calls for reflection. Even though comical, you’re not supposed to only laugh at these pictures. You need to contemplate them, ponder where this evil comes from.’

http://www.theonion.com/articles/pope-vows-to-get-church-pedophilia-down-to-accepta,17201/

VATICAN CITY—Calling the behavior shameful, sinful, and much more frequent than the Vatican was comfortable with, Pope Benedict XVI vowed this week to bring the widespread pedophilia within the Roman Catholic Church down to a more manageable level.

Addressing thousands gathered at St. Peter's Square on Easter Sunday, the pontiff offered his "most humble apologies" to abuse victims, and pledged to reduce the total number of molestations by 60 percent over the next five years.

"This is absolutely unacceptable," Pope Benedict said. "It seems a weakening of faith in God has prevented our priests from exercising moderation when sexually abusing helpless minors."

"And let me remind our clergy of the holy vows they all took when they entered the priesthood," he continued. "They should know that they're only allowed one small child every other month."

The pope said he was deeply disappointed to learn that the number of children sexually abused by priests was almost 10 times beyond the allowable limit clearly outlined in church doctrine. Admitting for the first time in public that the overindulgent touching of "tender, tender young flesh" had become a full-blown crisis, the Holy Father vowed to implement new reforms to bring the pedophilia rate back down to five children per 1,000 clergy.

"The truth is there will always be a little bit of molestation—it's simply unavoidable," Vatican spokesperson Rev. Federico Lombardi said. "But the fact that young boys have gotten much more attractive over the past few decades is no excuse for the blatant defiance of church limits that have been in place for centuries."

"The majority of priests don't want to molest kids at all," he added. "But for those who do, we must make sure they're doing it at a reasonable rate."

Following the pope's speech, the Vatican released a statement outlining its plan to reduce pedophilia. Starting next year, specially trained cardinals will make unannounced visits to inspect and observe random churches in order to ensure they are not going beyond diocese-wide molestation caps. The inspector-cardinals will grade each parish based on long, private interviews with altar boys in darkened church basements, and careful observation of priests' sexual activity.

These senior officials will also have the authority to enforce harsh punishments for any clergy member violating his allotment of pedophilia.

"If a priest goes even one child over the limit, there will be hell to pay," said Prefect Emeritus of the Congregation for Bishops Giovanni Battista Re, explaining the Vatican's new "Three Strikes, You're Out Rule." "After the third offense, the offending priest will immediately be moved to another parish. This will give officials time to investigate the case, and will act as an effective deterrent since it usually takes months for priests to gain the trust of the new children."

As a "goodwill measure," Cardinal Re said all churches will also be required to display a sign next to the altar showing the number of days since the last molestation.

Criticism of the pope's new plan has already begun to emerge from within the Catholic Church itself. Rev. Walter Moore, a pastor at St. Peter's in Chicago, questioned the Vatican's methodology in calculating the molestation rates, saying the church's inconsistent definition of pedophilia may have skewed the numbers.

"Is it technically pedophilia if the child's clothes are fully on the entire time? What if he's asleep when it happens?" Moore said. "It's time we had some clear guidance from Rome on this issue. For instance, the church counts it as one incident regardless of whether the child is molested multiple times by the same individual or by two priests at once. That's just plain wrong."

"Plus, if it's supposed to be a special secret between the priest and the boy, is it even any of the church's business in the first place?" he added. "Maybe Brandon is just trying to get attention."

The Vatican would not release details of the pope's upcoming world tour, in which he plans to clear up any confusion on the matter by personally demonstrating what constitutes molestation.
