For those who want to keep their iPods close at all times, there is the Atech Flash iCarta stereo dock on a toilet-paper holder that mounts on the wall. Compatible with most recent iPod models (and presumably all brands of toilet paper), the iCarta comes with four integrated speakers to bounce sound off the bathroom walls. With its electrical adapter, the iCarta charges the iPod while it is parked in the dock. The system sells for around $100 and is available at many online electronics stores.

Iran Invites Scholars to Assess Holocaust as History or Fiction
Iran says that it can be the perfect impartial judge on this topic because they "are not accused and responsible for the Holocaust".
Well, I'm glad that's settled - there are no anti-Semites in the Middle East. Got it.
Mr. Mohammadi dismissed the notion that the seminar could promote anti-Semitism, saying anti-Semitism was a Western phenomenon. The proof for that, he said, was Iran’s community of 25,000 Jews.
3. File Under New Forms of Terror
An American Airlines flight was forced to make an emergency landing on Monday morning after a passenger lighted a match to disguise the scent of flatulence, the authorities said.

Flatulence has been my terror of choice for years.
There may not be any anti-semites ("it would be hating ourselves!" say the Arabs, and the Persians nod in agreement) but they sure as shit hate the jews.
I think we should found an International League Against The Shrill. The Iranians are on the shrill list. And so are the jews.
Oh come on, I'm kidding. Sheesh, tough room....
weasel,
what?
Who knows. But I like the IPoop.
I think Weasel's referencing the following:
Sem·ite /ˈsɛmaɪt or, especially Brit., ˈsimaɪt/ Pronunciation Key - Show Spelled Pronunciation[sem-ahyt or, especially Brit., see-mahyt]
–noun
1. A member of any of various ancient and modern peoples originating in southwestern Asia, including the Akkadians, Canaanites, Phoenicians, Hebrews, and Arabs.
My word verification is cupgoy, which sort of rocks.
bill,
i got that aspect. it is the shrill thing that i was slightly confused about.
It was an attempt at ironic juxtaposition: the Iranian powers-that-be are being shrill with their whole silly "We are a mighty power, there was no holocaust" nonsense. By contrast Jewish folks are not shrill, although the Iranians would like us to think so. They are instead often verklempt, especially when Jimmy Carter writes books.
Nothing? Is this thing on?
