Anjem Choudary.
"This week he stood outside Westminster Cathedral in central London to call for the execution of the Pope as punishment for 'insulting Islam'. He fulminated against Pope Benedict XVl, adding: "Whoever insults the message of Mohammed is going to be subject to capital punishment."
It's a long way from his days as a medical student at Southampton University, where, friends say, he drank, indulged in casual sex, smoked cannabis and even took LSD. He called himself 'Andy' and was famed for his ability to drink a pint of cider in a few seconds.
One former acquaintance said: "At parties, like the rest of us, he was rarely without a joint. The morning after one party, I can remember him getting all the roaches (butts) from the spliffs we had smoked the night before out of the ashtrays, cutting them up and making a new one out of the leftovers.
"He would say he was a Muslim and was proud of his Pakistani heritage, but he did-n't seem to attend any of the mosques in Southampton, and I only knew of him having white girlfriends. He certainly shared a bed with them."
On one occasion, 'Andy' and a friend took LSD together. The friend said: "We took far too much and were hallucinating for 20 hours."
Choudary failed his first-year exams, switched from medicine to commercial law and did his final year as a law student at Guildford, from 1990 to 1991, before moving to London."
It's good to know this guy is just a rambling stoner who almost failed out of college. Execute the pope? Yeah.....right.

So a dream of mine is to one day open up a restaurant or maybe a coffee shop/cafe.
I've even gone so far as to think of some names.
Java, The Hut
Grand Brew Auto (if it was a drivethrough)
Joe2Go
The Brew Crew
Brewed Awakening
Joe-mentum
A Whole Latte Love
Inbound Espresso
The Three Ami-joes
Coffee 2.0
Yeah I've given thought to this. Who wants to be a co-owner?

This really sickens me.
This nun was slaughtered as a result of what the pope said. Why on earth should the Pope apologize - he was quoting a medieval text! If a historian quotes Hitler, that doesn't mean that he supports those views himself. Any extremists, of any religion, who incite hatred and violence should be jailed. If they have moved here from another country they should be made to return. We should not tolerate such behaviour any longer in our midst. Spare a thought for the poor nun who has been murdered in Somalia her only crime was to be a Catholic. She devoted her life to helping people.
It's scary the reverberations that are occurring from this. Sometimes it's not that hard to see how forces could move against the Church one day.

Hallelujah.
As it stands now, the recent oil-price slump has brought the national average for a gallon of unleaded gasoline down to $2.59, according to the AAA motor club. In the Seattle area, prices per gallon have fallen to $2.856 currently from $3.071 a month ago, a decline of 7 percent, according to AAA.
Should oil traders fear that this downward price spiral will get worse and run for the exits by selling off their futures contracts, Verleger said, it's not unthinkable that oil prices could return to $15 or less a barrel, at least temporarily. That could mean gasoline prices as low as $1.15 per gallon. as per Drudge Report

I knew it was only a matter of time.
"At least 10 stingrays have been found dead and mutilated on Australia's eastern coast since "Crocodile Hunter" Steve Irwin was killed by one of the animals last week."
Who'd have ever thought Steve Irwin had such an impact on the world?

* As impressive as Kingda Ka may be, it is worth noting that it is not the first of its kind. While Xcelerator at Knott's Berry Farm was the first hydraulically-launched coaster, Top Thrill Dragster at Cedar Point (the coaster which formerly had the title of "fastest" and "tallest" prior to the completion of Kingda Ka) is the most similar in design. All of these coasters were manufactured by Intamin. The most notable difference between Kingda Ka and Top Thrill Dragster is that Top Thrill Dragster lacks Kingda Ka's second hill; it instead has a flat brake run. Kingda Ka's tower is 36 feet (11 m) taller than Top Thrill Dragster's, and its launch is 4 mph (6.5 km/h) faster. Another notable difference is that Kingda Ka lacks Top Thrill Dragster's "christmas tree" starting lights, making it hard to know exactly when the launch will occur.
* Kingda Ka is different from Xcelerator in that, like Top Thrill Dragster, it lacks Xcelerator's double banked turns near the end of the ride.
* The downward spiral actually twists slightly less than 270 degrees, because the second hill is angled back toward the station rather than parallel with the launch track. On the other hand, Top Thrill Dragster's brake run is parallel to its launch track, so it spirals a full 270 degrees on the way down.
* It is less than one foot taller than the Great Pyramid of Giza, however the original height of the pyramid was 481 ft. - 25 ft. taller than Kingda Ka.
* It is 151 feet (46 m) taller than the Statue of Liberty, including its pedestal and base. Interestingly, the Statue itself (not including its pedestal and base) is that exact height - 151 feet tall.
* At the top of the first hill, riders feel negative g force.
* At the bottom of the first hill, riders experience 3-4 times the normal g force on earth.
* Kingda Ka is 45 stories tall.
* Kingda Ka never runs in the rain, even a slight drizzle, due to the potential hazards of traveling through the rain at 128 mph.
* Kingda Ka's launch is almost double the speed of the launch of the park's Batman & Robin: The Chiller (70 miles per hour or 110 km/h).
* Kingda Ka's hydraulic launch motor is capable of producing 20,800 horsepower (15.5 MW) peak.
* Kingda Ka is visible from the NJ 37 bridge connecting Toms River, New Jersey to Seaside Heights, New Jersey, 34 km or 21 mi from Six Flags Great Adventure.
* Kingda Ka is briefly visible directly ahead when passing exit 8 on Interstate 195.
* Kingda Ka is almost double the height of Nitro, the second tallest roller coaster at Six Flags Great Adventure (230 ft or 70 m).
* Kingda Ka's second hill is higher than the highest points of the park's Rolling Thunder, Batman: The Ride and Skull Mountain. The second hill is also only 13 feet (4 m) shorter than the highest point of Medusa.
* One of the park's tigers, a rare golden tabby bengal tiger cub, is named Kingda Ka after the coaster.
* The skylines of Philadelphia to the left, New York City to the right and Atlantic City to the back-left can be seen from the top of the tower.

Here's why there was really an XBox 360 Shortage. (via Kotaku)
It looks like someone may have figured out what happened to a batch of those early Xbox 360s to make them lock-up and overheat. A German modder took apart two Xbox 360s and found that during assembly someone forgot to remove the protective layer of foil from the GPU heatsink’s heat transfer pad.
In other words instead of cooling, the heatsink was likely acting like a frying pan.
That matches up with the report received by Kotaku shortly after launch that a huge batch of Xbox 360s were recalled internally. In other words, they found something wrong and never shipped them out to stores, and a global shortage happened.
