Wagner boss, Prigozhin resourfaces,(sic) Nah... Just scummy click-bait scamming... The video clip is already well seen and from days prior. Nothing new there. Don't give them the advertising revenue with your wasted time! Keep searchin'? Martin See new freedom: Mageia Linux Take a look for yourself: Linux Format The Future is what We all make IT (GPLv3) |

I don't think that the stick man will burn too well this year. Burning Man crowds fleeing as weather chaos leaves festival goers 'catching hypothermia'. Burning Man festival-goers are said to be desperately trying to flee the Nevada desert campsite as drastic weather conditions are wreaking havoc on the iconic event.Stay dray and warm. |

Maybe they should talk to the folks at Worthy Farm about planning for swamped car parks & access roads.... Bob Smith Member of Seti PIPPS (Pluto is a Planet Protest Society) Somewhere in the (un)known Universe? |

It got sunk in 1 river, fixed, sold and then trucked 1750km through the outback only to sink again. Will it ever stay afloat? Pride of the Murray paddle wheeler resurfaced after six months at the bottom of the Thomson River. Cheers. |

I reckon that that could just be the best of reality IMHO. Cheers. |

A Catholic Priest and a Rabbi were chatting one day when the conversation turned to a discussion of job descriptions and promotion. "What do you have to look forward to in way of a promotion in your job?" asked the Rabbi. "Well, I'm next in line for the Monsignor's job." replied the Priest. "Yes, and then what?" asked the Rabbi. "Well, next I can become Bishop." said the Priest. "Yes, and then?" asked the Rabbi. "If I work real hard and do a good job as Bishop, it's possible for me to become an Archbishop." said the Priest. "O.K., then what?" asked the Rabbi. The Priest, beginning to get a bit exasperated replied, "With some luck and real hard work, maybe I can become a Cardinal." "And then?" asked the Rabbi. The Priest is really starting to get mad now and replies, "With lots and lots of luck and some real difficult work and if I'm in the right places at the right times and play my political games just right, maybe, just maybe, I can get elected Pope." "Yes, and then what?" asked the Rabbi. "Good grief!" shouted the Priest. "What do you expect me to become, GOD?" "Well," said the Rabbi, "One of our boys made it!" |

And now Libya (or what's left of it), gets the snot knocked out of it by Storm Daniel.It's even worse than it first appeared. Libya floods wipe out quarter of the city of Derna, officials estimate a death toll more than 5,000 Thousands of people have been killed and at least 10,000 are missing in Libya after floods caused by a storm that burst dams, swept away buildings and wiped out as much as a quarter of the eastern coastal city of Derna.

Feel a need for speed? How about 0-100km/h (62.5mph) in under 1 second? University students built an electric car that can go from 0-100 km/h in under a second Grant Darwin NT |

This is what my old '87 was like when ready for a ride day at Eastern Creek Raceway (I hope that he just washed that and it just water dripping below). With a bit of engine and exhaust tinkering the black biatch put out 148bhp at the back wheel on the dyno and could pull low to mid 9's down the standing quarter, though back tyres didn't last very long. Below 6500rpm and it was a quiet bike, but once you went past that all hell broke loose big time. :-D Cheers. |
