A guy pretended to be a Gucci ad representative and conned a major swiss newspaper into running their "newest" ad. The ad in question contained a picture of the scam artist along with a photoshopped picture of gucci cologne. The $50,000 bill was sent to Gucci who was thoroughly confused.

Paul's attempt to copycat the crime with the above ad did NOT fool the ever-vigilent Boston Globe.

God I love it when religious leaders are caught being hypocrits. Rev. Lonnie W. Latham, who had repeatedly asked for gays to renounce their evil ways, was caught soliciting a male cop to come back to his room for a blow job. This goes to show you that priests are just people and are as corruptable as any politician.

How embarrassing. After killing his sister, the 8th woman in the family to be the victim of an honor killing, Rashad's female relatives had the AUDACITY to speak to non-family members. And the POLICE no less. Looks like the Abu-Ghanem family will fall into disgrace as the men will no longer be able to kill their sisters. Unless of course, they quickly kill all the women who are gonna testify against them.

This essay very effectively articulates the problems with Homeland Security and the TSA and all the bullshit security procedures we have to put up with because someone tried to light their explosive shoes on fire.

It looks like the Muslims in Britain are trying to do what the fundi-Christians want to do here in America. Force their religion on every kid in school. They have some VERY progressive ideas like banning swimming during Ramadan (just in case a kid swallows water), not allowing kids to draw people in art class (forbidden under sharia law), and require that the Koran is recited during every music class.

At least they aren't trying to pretend their religion is science.

A 19 year old computer dork who does nothing but stare at his computer because he has no social skills wrote a program to spy on people. He was specifically targeting pedophiles and was the key person in the 2002 indictment of a California Supreme Court Judge. Interesting read.

"SETI@home is a distributed processing client from UC Berkeley that installs on the volunteers' home computers and harnesses their processing power in the search for extraterrestrial intelligence. So far nothing noteworthy has comeout of this massive project... that is until today! One of the volunteers was able to track down his wife's stolen laptop using the IP address that SETI@home client reports back to the server. After getting back the laptop his wife said, 'I always knew that a geek would make a great husband.'"

This picture was presented to the world as proof of US weapons being used in Iran. If you look closely, there are some tell-tale problems with it. If you are lazy like me, just look at this webpage. It has a nice little movie file that shows all the problems.

A soldier in Iraq contacted a website asking them about shipping mats to Iraq after purchase. The response was that they wouldn't and that the soldier should pull his troops out of Iraq. The person who sent the email was fired and the website was closed...probably forever.
