From the New York Post :
A parody of Sarah Palin's book "Going Rogue: An American Life" has been causing huge confusion -- forcing Palin's publishers HarperCollins to take out ads to direct buyers to the official version.The rival book, "Going Rouge: An American Nightmare," was released on the same day as Palin's memoir and features an almost identical cover.
The victims so far?
Thousands of people who wanted to read Sarah Palin's book.
"Numerous media outlets"
Fox News
Harper Collins
CNN's Political Ticker
USA Today
One of those responsible for Going Rouge :
"We are sure that many people who mistakenly bought our book will have been pleasantly surprised. You learn more about the real Palin in our version."
A trainee spy for Israel's secret service agency Mossad was arrested by Tel Aviv police while taking part in a training operation, media reports say.The young trainee was spotted by a female passer-by as he planted a fake bomb under a vehicle in the city.
The authorities have refused to comment on the story although Israeli media outlets have expressed their surprise.
Are they sure it was fake? And is this an admission that Mossad is still planting car bombs, seeing as this act was apparently part of a training exercise?

Will America's enemies be emboldened and the country shamed if the president bows to mere children?Someone needs to give this half white half wit a swift kick in his boney black ass and remind him that Americans, especially Presidents of the United States, bow to no man, woman or beast!
More HereRespondents were asked: "When the president of the United States is traveling overseas, do you think it is appropriate for him to bow to a foreign leader if that is the country's custom or is it never appropriate for the president to bow to another leader?"
The numbers: Appropriate 67%, Never appropriate 26%. Even a majority of Republican respondents were okay with the bow, by a 53%-40% margin. Democrats weigh in at 84%-9%, and independents 62%-30%.
Scientology is not a religious organisation. It is a criminal organisation that hides behind its so-called religious beliefs.The Church Of Scientology quickly released a two page statement. Note the precise use of emotional trigger words throughout the statement :
What you believe does not mean you are not accountable for how you behave.
The letters received by me which were written by former followers in Australia contains extensive allegations of crimes and abuses that are truly shocking. Crimes against them and crimes they say they were coerced into committing.
There are allegations of false imprisonment, coerced abortions and embezzlement of church funds; of physical violence and intimidation, blackmail and the widespread and deliberate abuse of information obtained by the organisation.What we are seeing is a worldwide pattern of abuse and criminality. On the body of evidence, this is not happening by accident, it is happening by design.
These victims of Scientology claim it is an abusive, manipulative, violent and criminal organisation, and that criminality is condoned at the highest levels.

Just before touchdown, parachutists and hang-gliders execute a manoeuvre called a flare: raising the craft's nose to maximise lift from its wings while cutting its speed. Larger aircraft and many birds also flare when landing. Von Egidy is developing a suit she calls the Integrated Glide and Landing System (IGALS) that will allow fliers to do the same. It aims to achieve two things, the first being a much flatter glide angle.The Full Story Is Here
Normal wingsuits have a glide ratio of about 2.5:1- the pilot travels 2.5 metres horizontally for every metre of fall. Von Egidy claims she can achieve 4:1 or better by increasing the suit's wingspan, stabilising the aerofoil and changing the wing's shape.
The most innovative part of the design, though, is that it allows the pilot to drop out of the wing just before landing and hang beneath it, rather like a hang-glider pilot does, making it easier to flare without losing control.
This is the key to achieving the second aim: to slow "smoothly and dramatically" just before touchdown, so that the pilot ends up flying slowly enough to simply run off the excess speed, as in a parachute landing. Von Egidy, who is revealing the concept behind the suit for the first time here, claims it has "proved totally viable" in scale-model tests.
This hideous piece of 'merman' fakery was donated to the British Museum by royalty :

"Please be advised that any student who has the letters 'meep' on their clothing or uses the words verbally will face suspension from school...the police are monitoring this situation as well."It appears some students may have been using "Meep!" as a form of psychological torture.
....students were using the word to taunt a specific teacher.Parents of students at the school are now trying to stop their children from communicating with each other using this already absurdly notorious four letter word.
"Some kids would say it constantly," said student Kyle Sullivan.
"They would just walk by and just yell meep," said Allen.
"principal Murray....the school commitee, the town administrator, and the superintendent of schools for comments, but all have refused."A New York attorney heard about this surreal hilariously bizarre word ban and e-mailed the school's principal and administrators a message. The message?
Yesterday I received a reply email from Assistant Principal Mark Strout, which said (in full) "Your E-mail has been forwarded to the Danvers Police Department."Meep is an interesting word, not only because its childhood ingrained associations with Road Runner and Beaker.
1. An exclamation akin to 'ouch' or 'uh oh..'
2. Filling in the blanks where other (rude) words would go.
3. A greeting! I personally say meep instead of Hello...
4. A random expression of happiness used to fill gaps in conversation.
More than 1,000 students were held in a Danvers High School gymnasium for more than two hours this morning after police locked down the school in response to threatening messages found on a bathroom wall, police and school officials said.The police would not give the Boston.com any details on what the "threatening messages" actually said.The school was dismissed without incident at 1 p.m., nearly an hour early and more than two hours after classroom evacuations began.
A group of local law enforcers who are part of the School Threat Assessment and Response System swept the building with dog units after two threatening messages, one on a wall and one in a stall, were found in a boys’ bathroom about 9:15 a.m.
It was a silly question.Bob Thompson, a pop culture professor at Syracuse University, said he first heard students meep about a year ago during a class screening of a television show.
"Something happened and one of them said 'Meep,'" he said. "And then they all started doing it."
The meeps, he said, came from all of the students in the class in rapid-fire succession. When he asked them what that meant, they said it didn't really mean anything.
"It's almost like they look at you like it's a silly question," he said.
"It has nothing to do with the word. It has to do with the conduct of the students. We wouldn't just ban a word just to ban a word."I'm still betting the "threatening messages" that saw 1000 students confined to the gymnasium at the school in October contained the word 'Meep'.
A blockbuster video game which sees players act as terrorists and shoot up civilians has sparked calls for the Australian classification system to be cleaned up.
"When the terrorist level starts you step out of an elevator, the memorable line is one of the guys turning around to you and saying 'Remember, no Russian,'" he told ABC News Online.Modern Warfare 2 is claimed to have sold 7 million copies in its first 24 hours of release. Something like a $500-700 million dollar one day gross, when Hollywood wets itself when a movie makes $30 million in a weekend. Tens of thousands of copies of the game are now also being downloaded every hour through hundreds of torrent sites."Then all of you bring your guns up and you just unleash on an entire crowd of people. There's people screaming, some people trying to put their hands up to surrender, but everybody gets mowed down. You can choose not to shoot, but you can also choose to throw grenades, kill security guards.
"You eventually come up to a balcony where you're looking down on a massive crowd of people and then you can unleash of them. Then you have to take out a SWAT team with riot shields."
Everyone sent to destroy the television winds up totally mind controlled chanting, "I have no complaints".I sense a remake on the horizon....Though a monstrous, wall-filling flat screen would have trouble getting out of the house by itself, so its potential for global domination would be quite limited.
Coach explains what he thinks the Twonky might really be: "a form that would be quite safe and acceptable…I believe that the world in the future where this Twonky comes from every house, every family, has a Twonky of their own -to carry out the dictates of the super state…yes the super state…There’s one placed in every home to serve, to regulate every thought according to the dictates of the super state…He is now carrying out that function with you."
