Modern Days Robinson Crusoe

Actually it’s not one, it’s 11 new Robinson Crusoe and they were not lost in an island, their ship wrecked in Russia and they managed to survive for 3 months from fish they caught and some flour they found in an old abandoned military base! Read the complete story from BBC here.

That’s really weird!

You have heard that it was said, ‘An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.’ But I tell you not to resist an evil person. But whoever slaps you on your right cheek, turn the other to him also. If anyone wants to sue you and take away your tunic, let him have your cloak also. And whoever compels you to go one mile, go with him two. Give to him who asks you, and from him who wants to borrow from you do not turn away.

I am pretty sure you all know this paragraph, it is taken from the bible and was said by Jesus when he was teaching the people to forgive each others.

Today priests are supposed to pass on his teaching and the majority of them are doing it. The majority and not all of them because apparently a group of priest in Bethlehem forgot it and started a fight between them in the Basilica of Nativity (One of the most important places in Christianity)! Apparently the fight started because orthodox priests that wanted to clean the Basilica after Christmas trespassed into the Armenian controlled part of the Basilica. This trespassing started a fight involving 50 religious in black robes that lasted for 15 minutes before the Palestinian police stepped in and separated them! At the end 7 people were injured from the fight including 5 religious and 2 policeman.

Elissa’s New Album Cover

I don’t usually listen to Arabic music so I never know when a new album is released but in the previous days ads for Elissa’s new album started to pop-up in every street corner so I saw it and I have to say: That’s the worst cover design ever!!!

It looks like someone decapitated her and threw her head in the water!!! Why did they do this design!! Here’s a picture of it in case you missed it:

The Future?

I just watched this weird Flash presentation predicting the future of computers, the internet and its user. The presentation is a mix of history and fiction starting in the 90s and ending in 2014 (I think fiction starts in 2004). What’s really weird is that this is actually currently happening and we are all helping turning this fiction into a reality.

Mike the Headless Chicken

Mike the Headless Chicken

Here is “Mike” the headless chicken from USA. Mike has a very interesting story. The owner of the chicken wanted to eat it so he cut its head but the chicken somehow managed to survive without its head for 18 months! In those 18 months the owner took the bird across the US and showed it around until the bird choke to death during one night.

You can read more info and check some pictures of Mike here, but for some really weird stuff check out this site (that’s where I found out about this chicken in the first place) giving 5 scientific reasons why a bunch of Zombies might start attacking humans soon.

Do they know it is a fictional character?

Dumbledore is Gay

Sometimes I really don’t get people in Europe and the USA, Waiting a day in line to go get a book, a phone or a game is a little weird but since they don’t have politicians fighting and making them guess when a war will start I can understand why they do that. They just need something to have fun with.

But one week ago JK Rowling announced that a character in Harry Potter, Dumbledore, is Gay. This news became the most read and emailed story in BBC, it got on Digg’s front page and on every news site on the web. But is this really interesting!? He is just a character in a book! She created him, she could grow him a third leg if she wants, how the hell is this affecting peoples lives!! Why do they care so much??
