IN readiness for the World Cup, Brazil's Globo newspaper has launched a webpage featuring the correct way to pronounce many of the tournament's players' names.

YOU know you're a politician when you've been egged. And it can hurt. Get one in the head like Ruth Kelly, and kapow! Hard boil them, and the egg becomes a potentially lethal missile. But, then, it lacks the punchline. You know, the yolk. ('Ouch' - ed): More »
YOU may not know the name Scott Bradlee, but you'll definitely know the songs he performs. That's because you've probably seen his Postmodern Jukebox getting The Hits Of Today! and screwing them into the ground, kicking them around a little and uprooting and rearranging them as jazz standards, boozy ragtime belters and a whole load more...

IN what might not be the very best share tipping column ever the Daily Telegraph is telling us all that we should unload our Twitter shares immediately. This isn't sensible advice: or rather, it might be but it isn't for the reasons they're giving. Which is that the lock in is about to end and thus lots of people might start selling their stock...

A WHILE back, we brought you a list of action figure disappointments which featured the likes of a Love Boat and Grizzly Adams doll. However, there’s a bunch more that didn’t make the list, but desperately need to be shared. Plus, there are many that don’t necessarily fit into the “disappointment” category, but are nevertheless interesting and/or wildly insane. So, here are 13 additional dolls and figures. Enjoy. More »
A 7-FT TALL STATUE of Satan could soon be sat on the lawns before the Oklahoma State Capitol next to a monument of the ten commandments, pictured below. Note the spellings of "SABETH" and "MAIDSERAUNT". The Divine hand was big on Creation but not too hot on spelling... More »
