They frighten and excite me in equal measure.

Just so you know, while they are edible, they're also believed to have eaten Amelia Earhart and her navigator.

Post mortem! Post mortem! We also don't know if Earhart or her navigator killed and ate the other with the crabs finishing dinner...

What's really demented is that some people obviously get their assistants to do all that for real.

Yes, I believe it got to 72 here in the mountains (that's 22 C for you freaks in Europe). WRONG. . It's supposed to snow on Saturday, though. I hope so, fer christsake. We've only had one dusting, though about two miles away it was two inches. I dread the future, reminiscing about winter.

That is, indeed, shitty science. I know plenty of women who'd jeer and chaps who'd encourage. The fact that it's a strange old man on a unicycle probably biasses the experiment somewhat.

while 75% of the men attempted comedy - mostly shouting out "Lost your wheel?", for example.

Key word here is "attempted."

Often the men's comments were mocking and intended as a put-down. Young men in cars were particularly aggressive - they lowered their windows and shouted abusively.

Note how "aggression" (a negative trait) is changed to "humor" (a positive trait) for the headline and opening paragraphs.

It's ridiculous - comedy and agression probably are linked in all sorts of ways, but most of what he's describing is pure agression.

Well, what he's reported as describing. To be fair to the man, once an investigation has been through the media mill it often bears only the most passing resemblance to the result the reserchers actually announced.

As my old Aunt Petunia used to say: "What the quivering fuck?"

Judge won't inquire into CIA tapes case

The CIA acknowledged last month that in 2005 it destroyed videos of officers using tough interrogation methods while questioning two al-Qaida suspects. Lawyers for other terrorism suspects quickly asked Kennedy to hold hearings, saying the executive branch had proved itself unreliable and could not be trusted to investigate its own potential wrongdoing.

Kennedy disagreed, ruling that attorneys hadn't "presented anything to cause this court to question whether the Department of Justice will follow the facts wherever they may lead and live up to the assurances it made to this court."

Attorney General Michael Mukasey recently appointed a prosecutor to conduct a criminal investigation into destruction of the tapes. John Durham, a career public corruption and organized crime prosecutor, has a reputation for being independent.

Kennedy, a former prosecutor who was appointed to the bench by President Clinton, said he had been assured that the Justice Department would report back if it found evidence that a court order had been violated.

"There is no reason to disregard the Department of Justice's assurances," Kennedy said.


Emphasis emphatically mine.

This week, I read the Korean manwha comic Let's Bible!

In which Jesus Nazareth (sic) appears on Earth as a beautiful girl only to be abducted by a Croatian fisherman called Vulcan who aims to use her to rid himself of his burdensome virginity; Jesus is then re-abducted by Lucifer (a mariachi who magically drops Mini Coopers, battleships and skyscrapers on his opponents) who plans to kill her but is opposed by Honey, a bazooka-toting Gothic Lolita descended from the Apostle Simon. Honey drops the ball on her rescue attempt but manages to pass on her materialisation powers to Vulcan via a heavenly nanotech energy drink, only to find that he has the unexpected power to materalise nonexistent items - so he batters the shit out of Lucifer with a solid diamond Versace oar and summons the god Poseidon (a giant squid) to finish the job. Vulcan turns out to be the descendant of Peter, and Jesus returns to heaven in a minibus driven by her dad.

Um, yeah. It must have occurred to SOMEONE, surely? Maybe the world of golf publishing is as far removed from reality as any combination of "golf" and "publishing" SHOULD be?

That's a definite WTF?, though.
