I have just read that the UK government has made it a criminal offence to watch snuff movies. Although I am not into snuff movies personally, this is just one more petty law out of hundreds they have implemented since they came to power in '97. Another example is where they have made it an offence not to pay your dentist bill.
Meanwhile,if you live in the UK, for goodness sake don't watch any snuff movies on the Internet. You don't want to end up with a late night knock on your door.

Susan.

They need a law for that? lol...

Jeezus :(

Agreed...sheesh

#3 of Top 10 Hoaxes of 2004

Home Computer of 2004

It's a picture from 1954 of what RAND Corporation scientists imagined that a 'home computer' would look like in 2004 (note the steering wheel). Except that the picture doesn't really date from 1954. It was created in 2004 by Danish software sales and support technician Troels Eklund Andersen as an entry in a Fark Photoshop contest (theme: "Photoshop this mock-up of a submarine's maneuvering Room"... Andersen's photo won the contest). He didn't intend for it to fool thousands of people on the internet, but once it slipped beyond the confines of Fark and began circulating via email, that's exactly what it did. It even fooled Scott McNealy, CEO of Sun Microsystems, who displayed it to an audience at a computer conference as evidence of how impossible it is to predict what future technology will look like.

On a lighter note:

Russians have sex while driving

Russians are Europe's worst drivers with 25% admitting to having had sex behind the wheel, according to a new survey.

The poll, by KRC Research and Goodyear, also found Russians do not use seatbelts, break speed-limits, drive through red lights, drive drunk and have sex while driving more often than other Europeans.

Some 36% of Russian drivers admit to regularly exceeding speed limits - the highest rate in Europe, the Delovoi Peterburg newspaper reported.

Russians talk on their mobile phones while driving more often than drivers in the other 14 European countries polled. And about 30% of those polled in Russia had driven drunk before.

Russians also do not pay enough attention to their physical condition when they are going to take the wheel. Only 9% of those polled across Europe will drive if they don't feel well, compared to 23% of Russians.

Yeah sure, I'd bet that many of those that were questioned were exaggerating about that part.

It's a long story..but very similar...and I just want to point out that none of it was my fault.

Holidaymaker uses laptop to nab burglars
The long arm of the net
By John Leyden → More by this authorPublished Thursday 14th September 2006 13:11 A businessman on holiday in Spain was able to alert police of a raid on his home in the UK because he'd invested in an expensive net-connected CCTV system. Engineering boss John Ellison, 52, watched the attack on his Lancaster home unfold on a laptop PC he'd taken on holiday with him to Malaga, Spain.

He was automatically notified (via an SMS message) that something was amiss by the £20,000 security system, which features 16 CCTV cameras, after blaggers bludgeoned their way through a conservatory door in order to enter his £600,000 home. Ellison reacted quickly to log on, confirming his worse fears. He watched the raid in mounting anger for the next 40 minutes until police, notified by Ellison that a raid was in the progress, nabbed two of three burglars.

One of the blaggers was caught wearing a Bart Simpson mask and cowering in Ellison's bathroom, This Is London reports. Ellison estimates the burglars cost £12,000 damage to his property. "They were armed with bags full of crow bars and other tools. I was livid. I could see them smashing doors and various other things," he said.

"But it was wonderful to see them being marched out and their masks being pulled off. The security system is expensive but worth every penny. The police seemed impressed as I directed the operations from Spain."

The two men caught by police raiding Ellison's home - Mark Johnson, 46, and Ian McClements, 20 - have pleaded guilty to burglary and are due to be sentenced on 5 November. Police are still searching for the third man involved in the raid. ®

Chemical Process Makes Fuel from Carbon Dioxide
CARBON DIOXIDE emissions could be turned back into a fuel.
Carbon dioxide is part of nearly everything humans do. It comes out of the tailpipes of our cars, the stacks from most of our power plants and the nostrils on the tail end of every breath we take. From a climate change perspective, of course, all this CO2 is a problem, given the greenhouse property of the gas. A variety of solutions have been proposed, including burying the stuff deep below the earth or sea or switching to fuels that do not lead to its emission, but now a scientist from Italy has offered another possibility: turn it back into fuel.
Chemist Gabriele Centi of the University of Messina in Italy uses solar energy gathered by a titanium dioxide film to ionize CO2 in its liquid form. Mixing this ionized liquid carbon dioxide with water, chemists can create longer carbon chains, much like photosynthesis in plants. In current tests the process can create some natural gas and methanol, but the number and type of carbon chains cannot be controlled.
Centi's team decided to try to use carbon dioxide
in its natural form: gas. In a device much like a fuel cell, known as a photoelectrocatalytic reactor, the researchers tested several potential catalysts, ranging from copper to carbon nanotubes. In each case, the process turned CO2 into more complex carbon molecules. Most intriguingly, depending on the catalyst involved, the researchers could create hydrocarbons with as many as nine carbon atoms--the kinds of useful fuels produced by industry using the so-called Fischer-Tropsch reaction--and with some control over the amount made. Further, by placing iron molecules within the carbon nanotubes, the process could be made even more efficient, though not as much as using expensive platinum or palladium. "It is a long time to practical applications," Centi says. But he notes it might prove useful on a manned mission to Mars, which cannot easily carry enough fuel for its return, to be able to make it on the Red Planet itself. Centi presented his new gas phase research on September 13 at the American Chemical Society meeting in San Francisco. --David Biello

Witchdoctor orders Serb to have sex with hedgehog
By Lester Haines → More by this authorPublished Friday 15th September 2006 11:34 GMT- A Serbian man who went to a witchdoctor in search of a cure for premature ejaculation rather foolishly took the shaman's advice, viz: have sex with a hedgehog.

You know the rest: Zoran Nikolovic, 35, from Belgrade, ended up in the hospital with severe lacerations to his wedding tackle, according to Ananova. A hospital spokesman said: "The animal was apparently unhurt and the patient came off much worse from the encounter. We have managed to repair the damage to his penis."
We contacted a member of the International Association of Witchdoctors this morning for a comment. He told us: "This demonstrates the dangers in consulting unlicenced witchdoctors. We advise anyone with ejaculatory disfunction to consult our list of approved practitioners."
On the matter of premature ejaculation, he added: "Mix one teaspoon of powdered ocelot spleen with Red Bull under a full moon. Drink one hour before attempting penetration while sitting in a pentacle formed by toad skulls. Then, when you're on the job, think about the mother-in-law and filling in tax returns." ®
