SoBeIt Posted June 23, 2010 Report Share Posted June 23, 2010 Driver hits elk and runs off with slice of thigh Published: 23 Jun 10 09:24 CET Online: http://www.thelocal.se/27402/20100623/ A car driver involved in a collision with an elk on the E22 motorway in Blekinge in southern Sweden, claimed a slice of meat from the animal's thigh before fleeing the scene in a callous hit and run incident that has left a local hunter seething. "To violate game in this way in unprecedented. I am lost for words," said Mikael Lundin, a hunter responsible for tracking down injured animals, to the local Sydöstran daily. Collisions with wild animals are a common occurrence in some parts of Sweden, despite improved security and fencing in recent years. When drivers collide with an elk or other game they are required to inform the police who get in touch with the local hunter responsible for tracking the animal and ending its suffering. But when this driver on the E22 near Brömsebro in Blekinge collided with a cow elk, they took the chance to claim a piece of the animal, presumably for later consumption. "This is a case of very low moral fibre, of butchery and pure theft," Lundin told the newspaper. According to the newspaper several passing cars noted the offending vehicle parked by the side of the road with its hazard lamps on. Although the animal is reported to have landed in the ditch by the side of the main road, it remains unclear whether it was dead while the driver sliced off a chunk of the elk's thigh before fleeing the scene. The accident was not brought to the attention of the authorities until the morning after when a worried calf was seen anxiously running up and down the bank by the ditch. "It is perhaps not that unusual that people leave the scene of collisions with wild game, but here he had first sliced off a large chunk of the elk's thigh, with what appears to be not insignificant butcher skills. Presumably to take home to eat, or perhaps to give to the dog," Lundin told the newspaper. The police are reportedly unable to rule the possibility that the more than one person was involved in the incident. _________________ :shock: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJTX Posted June 24, 2010 Report Share Posted June 24, 2010 Michael Jackson was 'murdered for money', says sisterMichael Jackson was murdered for money, according to his sister LaToya LaToya Jackson has claimed her brother Michael was murdered because he was "worth so much more dead than alive". Speaking during a TV interview, the singer demanded what she called "the truth" surrounding the star's death in June 2009. She said: "He was murdered for his catalogue and they knew that." Tomorrow (25 June) marks the one year anniversary of the Thriller singer's death with fans organising tributes around the globe. 'No' accident Earlier this week music trade magazine Billboard reported that the royalties accumulated since the star's death had earned the Jackson estate $1 billion (£677 million). In an interview with GMTV she said: "Personally I think it is a slap in the face, not just to Michael but to the entire family. It's totally unfair, it's wrong and it was not an accident." Asked whether she believed the star was murdered, she added: "I never had a doubt. LaToya Jackson claims her brother's death was "not an accident" "You must remember from the day that I found out that Michael was no longer with us, when my mother screamed 'he's dead' on the phone, I just went into this, 'Who did it?"' Michael Jackson's personal physician Dr. Conrad Murray has pleaded not guilty to a charge of involuntary manslaughter and is currently awaiting trial. Meanwhile, the Los Angeles Forest Lawn cemetery have confirmed fans will be allowed to leave flowers on an outdoor terrace near the singer's burial site to mark the anniversary but that balloons, candles and doves will not be permitted. Reverend Al Sharpton, who preceded over Jackson's memorial service last year said: "I don't think the world has been able to mourn him properly because there's too many unanswered questions. Speaking in New York regarding the anniversary, he added: "I don't think we can heal until we look at the wounds. Who inflicted the wound and why. "I think we can celebrate his life, but we can't be settled with his death until we know, who, what, when and why. And we still don't know." http://news.bbc.co.uk/newsbeat/hi/music/newsid_10400000/newsid_10401000/10401060.stm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stramash Posted June 24, 2010 Report Share Posted June 24, 2010 Courts rule you must listen to all the rubbish Pink Floyd songs too By Andrew Owen Millions of music lovers were left reeling today after a High Court judge ruled they could no longer download “just the good bits†from online music retailers and must in future download an album in its turgid entirety. The decision came after Pink Floyd successfully stopped their record label selling single downloads from their concept albums because it breached their wallets, and something or other about ‘artistic integrity’. In the case of Pink Floyd album The Wall, fans will no longer be able to download only the good ones, such as Goodbye Blue Skies and Another Brick in the Wall, but will be forced to listen to all the really depressing stuff as well. Even that one about the worms. Appreciated A band spokesperson explained, “It was a breach of our rights as creative entities, yes. Money is a secondary factor, definitely.†“It’s always been our contention that you would appreciate the good stuff all the more if you’re forced to listen to the garbage tracks too.†“It’s like tasting a cheesburger after a weekend on a health farm, it’s relative deliciousness is magnified tenfold.†“But if you could just go straight for the cheeseburger and skip the weekend of tofu and celery would you really enjoy the cheesburger? What, you would? Idiot.†“Yes, yes, I know McDonald’s don’t make you do that, but they didn’t spend three months in a studio making that ******* burger, did they!†Music industry insiders explained that several bands now planned to challenge the ’skip track’ function on CD players. “It’s simply not fair that people can buy, say, a copy of The Beatles’ Revolver album or Sergeant Pepper and completely ignore the ‘George one’,†the insider concluded.

DJTX Posted June 25, 2010 Report Share Posted June 25, 2010 Imagine being this guy... The gambling man who co-founded Apple and left for $800Pahrump, Nevada (CNN) -- Ron Wayne is usually just another gambler at the Nugget Hotel & Casino in Nevada. He comes here a couple of days a week to try his luck on the video poker machine. But on this trip, he drew some curious onlookers, as he was escorted by a CNN camera crew. A gift-shop worker asked him if he's famous. "Well, I'm one of the founders of Apple Computer," Wayne responded. Wayne, 76, is used to the puzzled looks. He said people assume that he must be living in a mansion. "I'm living off my Social Security and I do a modest trade in collectors' stamps and coins," he said. The irony of being inside a casino is not lost on Wayne. After all, if his short-lived career at Apple had gone differently, he would be holding a different kind of winnings: 10 percent of Apple's stock. Today, that stock would be worth $22 billion. Wayne left Apple for only $800. "What can I say? You make a decision based on your understanding of the circumstances, and you live with it," he said. Wayne's tenure at Apple began on April 1, 1976. His name is signed on the legal document that established Apple -- next to those of Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak, the Silicon Valley giants most people associate with the popular tech company, which makes the iPhone and iPad. Jobs and Wayne had become friends a few years earlier while both were working for the Atari Corporation. "We did get fairly chummy, had lunch together, dinner together and had conversations," he said. As Wayne tells it, Jobs asked for his help in drafting documents and mediating a dispute between Jobs and Wozniak. He also drafted the company's first logo and operating manual. For this work, Wayne was awarded a 10 percent stake in Apple. "What Jobs had in mind was that he and Woz [as Wozniak is sometimes called] should each have 45 percent and I would have 10 percent as mediator in any dispute that would come up," he said. That account is backed up by other reports. In Steve Wozniak's autobiography, "iWoZ," he described Wayne as "one of those people who seemed to have a quick answer for everything." "He seemed to know all the things we didn't," Wozniak wrote. "Ron ended up play a huge role in those very early days at Apple." But Wayne had early misgivings. He had been unsuccessful in starting a slot-machine manufacturing business. He racked up thousands of dollars in debt. With Apple, he was concerned history would repeat itself. "I could see myself getting into this situation again, and I was really getting too old for that kind of thing," Wayne said, noting that his partners at Apple were 20 years younger than he was. "The way these guys were going, they were going to bulldoze through anything to make this company succeed. But it was going to be very rough ride, and if I wasn't careful, I was going to be the richest man in the cemetery." Eleven days after Apple was formed, Wayne removed himself from the company charter. He eventually was given $800 for his stake in Apple, and he let go of that valuable Apple stock, which has exploded in value since. Wayne said he doesn't let himself wonder how things could have been different if he had chosen to stay with Apple. "Obviously he [Wayne] didn't have the foresight to know what Apple would become. Like any company in the very early stages, there's a risk associated and you've got to be willing to take it, or you're not," said Ben Bajarin, a technology industry analyst for Creative Strategies. Wayne, whose net worth is mostly tied up in his extensive coin and stamp collection, said he's as "enamored with money as anybody else." "But when you're at a focal point of history, you don't realize you're at a focal point of history," he said. A retired engineer, who has worked at various companies since his departure, Wayne said he never has owned an Apple product. "I never had a real use for computers," he said. He recently purchased a Dell, saying he's too familiar with Microsoft Windows to want to switch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stramash Posted June 25, 2010 Report Share Posted June 25, 2010 Apple announce hands-free iHelmet for problematic iPhone 4 Apple has responded to criticism of its problematic iPhone 4 handset by announcing the immediate release of the iHelmet, which will remove the need to ever touch the iPhone ever again. The helmet will allow users to hang the phone by the side of their head, preventing the need to actually make troublesome contact with the handset itself. The helmet itself converts everything above your shoulders into an antenna, ensuring that should you still make accidental contact with the iPhone 4, there is now only a 70% chance that you will drop the call. Steve Jobs explained, “The iHelmet is a revolution in hands-free communication - which is now considered a pre-requisite in order to use the iPhone as an actual phone to make phone calls with.†“Hats and helmets have been with us for hundreds of years, so you already know how to use the iHelmet. Only now we’ve combined the wearing of a helmet with a solution for using a phone that doesn’t actually work as a phone.†Pricing The iHelmet will go on sale this weekend for £199, and consumers are already queueing outside London’s Apple Store to get their hands on the eagerly anticipated new product. Apple fan Dwight Smith told us, “I’ve been waiting for years for Apple to release a product that addresses the perennial problem of having a slightly cold head.†“And not only does this almost entirely eliminate heat loss from the cranium area, it also means I can use my iPhone 4 to communicate remotely with other mobile phone users. Genius.†“This is another master stroke from Apple, and I simply won’t hear another word on the matter.†na Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruce551 Posted June 29, 2010 Report Share Posted June 29, 2010 Dengue and cholera outbreaks bring warnings after 30 die By Pongphon Sarnsamak The Nation BANGKOK: -- The Public Health Ministry has ordered its officials across the country to keep a close eye on the outbreak of two communicable diseases, dengue fever and cholera, following reports these illnesses have killed 30 people over the past six months. Minister Jurin Laksanawisit said 26,185 dengue fever infection cases had been reported and six people had died during the past week alone. Two victims were in Songkhla province and one each in Nakhon Si Thammarat, Nakhon Ratchasima, Udon Thani, and Chai Nat. The Ministry reported the Central region was the hardest hit with 9,823 cases, followed by 6,976 in the South, 6,579 in the Northeast, and 2,807 in the North. Deputy Health Minister Pannasiri Kullanartsiri said people aged between 15 and 24 were the most vulnerable to dengue fever infection, followed by children between 10 to 14, and those from 5 to 9. Jurin added he had also ordered public health officials to monitor the spread of cholera after reports of five deaths. Three cases were in Pattani and the rest in Songkhla and Tak. Officials reported 982 people infected by the food-borne disease during the past six months. Among the infected, 708 were Thai, and 274 migrant workers. Southern region has the highest number of people infected with cholera with 505 cases, followed by the North with 279, the Northeast with 166, and the Central region with 32 cases. A cholera outbreak in 2007 infected 986 people and seven people died. The number of infections was reduced in 2008 to 200, and in 2009 to 300 cases, with 2-3 deaths a year. The Public Health Ministry has issued a warning to people to protect themselves from infection by eating cooked and hot food, using a middle spoon and washing hands frequently. For exported food products, Department of Disease Control's director-general Dr Manit Teeratantikanont said the department had strictly checked bacterial contamination among exports. Any food products with bacteria contamination would not be allowed to leave the country. -- The Nation 2010-06-29 Drought? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave40 Posted July 1, 2010 Report Share Posted July 1, 2010 Falling maggots force plane back US Airways says maggots falling from an overhead bin from a container of spoiled meat forced a plane to return to the gate in Atlanta. A passenger brought the container onto the plane and passengers noticed the maggots on Monday on the flight bound for North Carolina, the airline's spokesman, Todd Lehmacher, said. The plane returned to the gate and passengers got off so crews could clean the overhead bin. Mr Lehmacher said the flight continued to Charlotte, where the plane was taken out of service and fumigated out of an "abundance of caution". http://au.news.yahoo.com/thewest/a/-/breaking/7495176/falling-maggots-force-plane-back/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stramash Posted July 1, 2010 Report Share Posted July 1, 2010 Ryanair is planning to run flights where passengers stand during the journey at a cost of just GBP 5 per ticket. Michael O'Leary, the airline's chief executive, will set out proposals today that include charging customers to use the loo. A standing area with "vertical seats" will be introduced at the back of its fleet of 250 planes. He said that charging customers GBP 1 to make use of facilities would encourage travellers on one-hour flights to use lavatories at the airport instead of on the aircraft. The Irishman said he intended to introduce coin-operated loos and added: "The other change we've been looking at is taking out the last 10 rows of seats so we will have 15 rows of seats and the equivalent of 10 rows of standing area." A Ryanair spokesman said that Boeing had been consulted over refitting the fleet with "vertical seats" which would allow passengers to be strapped in while standing up, which would cost between GBP 4 and 8 per person. Safety testing will be carried out next year. However, a spokesman for the Civil Aviation Authority said the plans would struggle to meet safety requirements. He said: "It's aviation law that people have to have a seat belt on from take-off and landing so they would have to be in a seat. I don't know how Mr O'Leary would get around that one. During turbulence passengers also have to have a seat belt on." Mr O'Leary was interviewed for ITV's ‘How to Beat the Budget Airlines’ which airs on Thursday night at 7.30pm. f*ck that!!! :roll: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
