What a day.
Thursday, apparently.
Embattled gombeen men, cute babies, Joe Higgins, Colm McCarthy, IBEC-heads, a scary sequence of shots of the IMF’s Ajai Chopra, Japanese media, homeless people (poignantly) begging, a man reading the Irish Independent, cops, crazies and lots and lots of camera people.
All human life. Here it is:

Evangelical Christians in Brazil have reportedly banned the use of USB connections after claiming the technology is the mark of Satan-worshippers.
The evangelical cult “Paz do Senhor Amado” (“Peace of the beloved Lord”) in the interior of Brazil forbids its followers to use any USB technology by contending that it uses a symbol that shows sympathy for the devil.
According to its founder, the “Apostle” Welder Saldanha says that this is just another symbol of Satan, which is always present in all Christian homes.
“The symbol of that name (a name which he doesn’t even like to pronounce) is a trident, which is used to torture souls that go to hell. Use only a symbol of those shows that all users of that vile technology are actually worshipers of Satan” – explains the” Apostle”.

The fantasy epic gets the stoner treatment. Possibly a few years too late, but what the hey, anything with Natalie Portman in a chain-mail bikini is bound to rake it in.

His name’s Robbie, and if you like the cut of his cyber-jib you can go and be his friend on Facebook.
Which will be nice for both of you.
That’s right. Fin. As in:
In an indication of potentially tough negotiations ahead, France said Ireland may have to raise its ultra-low 12.5 percent corporation tax rate — a taboo in Irish politics — in return for the assistance package. French Finance Minister Christine Lagarde said Irish business taxation was abnormally low by European standards. Higher-tax countries, including Britain, Germany and France, have long seen the Irish rate as a form of unfair competition. But Irish Deputy Prime Minister Mary Coughlan told parliament the government would not be raising the corporate tax rate. “It’s non-negotiable,” she said.
