From a story on Yahoo News " HOLYHEAD, Wales - A man who dressed up as Darth Vader, wearing a garbage bag for a cape, and assaulted the founders of a group calling itself the Jedi church was given a suspended sentence Tuesday.

Arwel Wynne Hughes, 27, attacked Jedi church founder Barney Jones — aka Master Jonba Hehol — with a metal crutch, hitting him on the head, prosecutors told Holyhead Magistrates' Court.

"We all love the films and what they stand for. Obviously some people are going to laugh about it," the Wales on Sunday newspaper quoted Barney Jones as saying last month. "But a lot of people do take it seriously."

Total süß!

Wikipedia: Ernest Gary Gygax (July 27, 1938 – March 4, 2008) was an American writer and game designer, best known for co-creating the pioneering role-playing game Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) with Dave Arneson, and co-founding the company Tactical Studies Rules with Don Kaye in 1974. Gygax is generally acknowledged as the father of the role-playing game.

On March 4th, the Associated Press confirmed reports of Gygax's passing. He had been in poor health, suffering multiple strokes and a near-heart attack

Telegraph: ""They planned the attack from the sea so they could enter his property from the garden and avoid security at the front. The boat was hit by a storm and all of the men were thrown overboard. All survived and there was not said to have been any further attempt on Jagger's life.""

Your big chance!

Pop Disco Schlager Glamfolk Legende Alex Tornado spielt demnächst einen Bullen in der Verfilmung von "The Reader" und hatte nebenbei ein Interview mit Vagina Jones im WTNR Radio.

Wir erinnern uns alle an Tornados sensationellen Oscar-Auftritt als stummer Stasi-Schüler in "Das Leben der Anderen" (siehe Bild oben, der konzentriert drein blickende Herr) und sind sehr gespannt auf seine Performance in diesem neuen RAF-Schocker aus dem Haus Eichinger, wo Tornado von Ulrike Meinhoff umgerannt wird. Unvergessen natürlich auch sein Mimenspiel als Zombie-Eintänzer in "Resident Evil". An der Seite dieser Frau mit dem unaussprechlichen Namen gab es in diesem Action-Spektakel auch seinen ersten Einsatz als Stuntman zu sehen. Die Tür nach Hollywood steht Alex Tornado längst schon offen.

Bist Du dafür Emo genug?

1996 - Propagandhi in the Alps (From the left: Chris, John, Jord. The boy in the middle is their legendary babysitter Regal who just posted some amazing pictures from back in the old days on his Facebook.)

That day we knew we made it. We were not in Germany anymore. We were on our way to Italy and we had good friends waiting for us. They let us sleep at their houses for a couple of days when we had to cancel two shows in Italy. We were on the road for three weeks already and there were three more weeks to go. The next big, big highlight was playing Amsterdam with "...But Alive" and drinking with our friends from Hamburg again. That was like 7 or 8 days later. We were back in the bus and after the show with "Skin of Tears" in Wangen everyone was sick. Chris was throwing up already when they got on stage to play the first show in Italy that night. The boys did the gig, we had some shady sleeping quarters and everyone was close to following Hannah's example. But in the morning we decided to call in sick. It was early April, the sun was out, we were in Italy, Chris was getting sicker by the minute and people offered us a place to stay for a few nights.

We walked around this italian smalltown for two days and those were two of the most relaxing days of my life, I think. Three or four nights later we were in Schopfheim, Sunny's homebase. Back in Germany. That was the night when the boys finally got to see the first cd-copies of "less Talk, More Rock". We did the release-party at this cheesy chinese restaurant and it took Jord forever to take the cd out of the tray and discover "that photo"....

"Erzähle mir keiner, dass Heteromänner grundsätzlich und libidinös anders drauf sind als Schwule! Denn täglich sind die Eier dick, aber Heteromannen im Saft müssen sich nun mal mit der Tatsache herumschlagen, dass Frauen in aller Regel anders ticken als sie. Aber gäbe es, sagen wir in Osnabrück, einen Stadtpark, in dem nachts Frauen rumstreunten und Männer zum Sex suchten, ohne Geld, aus reiner Lust am Schweinkram – Osnabrück bräuchte drei neue Autobahnabfahrten!"

(AP) — Heath Ledger was found dead Tuesday at a downtown Manhattan residence, and police said drugs may have been a factor.(...) The Australian-born actor was nominated for an Oscar for "Brokeback Mountain," where he met his wife, actress Michelle Williams, in 2005. Ledger and Williams had lived in Brooklyn and had a daughter, Matilda, until they split up last year.

Ledger was to appear as the Joker this year in "The Dark Knight," a sequel to 2005's "Batman Begins." He's had starring roles in "A Knight's Tale" and "The Patriot," and played the suicidal son of Billy Bob Thornton in "Monster's Ball."

The Joker is dead!

That's really sad...! 28 years old, probably on drugs, spending the night with one of those Olsen brats without telling the wife....

"Joe Jackson has recently attracted a lot of attention for speaking out against antismoking hysteria and smoking bans. His position is based on neither personal prejudice nor profit, but on several years of research.
