The Adventure of Many Lifetimes
For thousands of years, the human race has spread out across the Earth, scaling mountains and plying the oceans, planting crops and building highways, raising skyscrapers and atmospheric CO2 levels, and observing, with tremendous and unflagging enthusiasm, the Biblical injunction to be fruitful and multiply across our world's every last nook, cranny and subdivision. An invitation. Earth has issues, and it's time humanity got started on a Plan B. So, starting in 2014, Virgin founder Richard Branson and Google co-founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin will be leading hundreds of users on one of the grandest adventures in human history: Project Virgle, the first permanent human colony on Mars.

Anzeige gegen 14-Jährigen: Grazer Polizei lenkt ein
Im Fall des 14-jährigen Grazers, der von der Polizei bei zwei verschiedenen Demos gegen das BZÖ und die FPÖ in Graz angezeigt wurde, dürfte es nun ein Einlenken der Behörde geben. Wie berichtet, bekam der Schüler Anzeigen, weil er einmal BZÖ-Generalsekretär Gerald Grosz den Mittelfinger zeigte, nachdem dieser Demonstranten als "Schmutz" beschimpft hatte, und ein anderes Mal, weil er den Gehsteig innerhalb eines Demonstrationszuges nicht benutzt hatte. "Ich sage: Wir können und müssen uns da verbessern", fand der Grazer Polizeidirektor, Helmut Westermayer, am Freitag gegenüber dem Standard deutliche Worte.
