Fellner ein Talibanjournalist ?


H.C.Strache gegen Wolfgang Fellner(ORF) war fad. Wie überhaupt die ORF Sommergespräche 2007 fad sind. Den Westenthaler sah ich mir nicht an (ärgern kann ich nich aus so), gestern hielt ich es immerhin 20 Minuten durch. Wartete das es platsch machte und die 3 Diskutanten mit ihren IKEA Gartenmöbeln in den Weissensee platschten. ......

...... Ja der Herr Oberhauser war auch noch dabei.

SuprNova: The Legend Returns Today


Suprnova has been down for some years due to some heavy pressure from the copyright lobby. The former owner sloncek donated suprnova to The Pirate Bay - and as you know, we like to kick ass and bow for noone!

We were going to keep this site a secret until we had finished it, but of course it leaked, that's how internet works. So now that the word is out, we're releasing it!

Please consider these first weeks/months as a beta test. Since we love all you guys and gals so much we decided to keep it an open beta test. That means, please behave, don't complaint to much and if you discover any weird bugs or problems, let us know.

Joybubbles, 58, Peter Pan of Phone Hackers, Dies


Joybubbles (the legal name of the former Joe Engressia since 1991), a blind genius with perfect pitch who accidentally found he could make free phone calls by whistling tones and went on to play a pivotal role in the 1970s subculture of “phone phreaks,” died on Aug. 8 in Minneapolis.

He was 58, though he had chosen in 1988 to remain 5 forever, and had the toys and teddy bears to prove it. The cause of death has not been determined, said Steven Gibb, a friend and the executor of the Joybubbles estate.

Google is unveiling within Google Earth today a new service called Sky that will allow users to view the skies as seen from Earth. Like Google Earth, Sky will let users fly around and zoom in, exposing increasingly detailed imagery of some 100 million stars and 200 million galaxies.

Archaeologists in Egypt say they have discovered what might be the oldest human footprint ever found.

The outline was found imprinted in mud, which has since turned to stone, at Siwa oasis in the western desert.

Director's Statement on the Release of the 9/11 IG Report Executive Summary


Earlier this month, Congress passed a bill implementing some of the recommendations of the 9/11 Commission. The legislation, lengthy and complex, includes a provision dealing with the report that CIA’s Office of Inspector General prepared on the performance of our agency prior to September 11th. The act gave me 30 days to make available to the public a version of the report’s executive summary, declassified to the maximum extent possible. Today, well within deadline, I am releasing that material.
