...and his fucking cell is now designed to look like a university dormNorwegian mass murderer Anders Behring Breivik won a place on Friday to study at Oslo University from solitary confinement in prison, despite outrage at his massacre of 77 people four years ago.
"He meets the admission requirements. We stick to our rules and he will be admitted," Oslo University rector Ole Petter Ottersen told Reuters, saying prisoners are eligible to study as long as their academic grades are good enough.
Many were appalled when Breivik, who holds far-right anti-Muslim views and has shown no remorse, applied for the three-year bachelor's course in political science. Some students now at the university survived his attacks, while others had friends or relatives killed.
"I realise there are many feelings involved here. He tried to demolish the system. We have to stay faithful to it," Ottersen said. The course includes study of democracy, human rights and respect for minorities.
Breivik, now 36, planted a bomb on July 22, 2011 in central Oslo that killed eight people and destroyed the government headquarters. He then travelled to an island where the then-ruling Labour Party was holding a summer camp and shot dead 69 people, many of them teenagers.
Under the terms of his sentence, Breivik is held in solitary confinement and will be unable to attend lectures or seminars. All his work will go via prison staff, with no direct contact with professors.
"His study will be carried out exclusively in his own cell," Ottersen said. Breivik has access to books but not the Internet.
Norway will open a "July 22 Centre" next week in Oslo with information and exhibits about the attacks. Some relatives and survivors fear it risks becoming a Breivik "hall of fame"

http://www.forbes.com/sites/erikkain/2015/07/09/a-call-of-duty-mini-fridge-comes-with-the-juggernog-edition-of-black-ops-3/This version not only comes with the game, the season pass, and “The Giant”—a remake of Der Rise, a fan favorite zombie map—it also comes with a full-sized, fully functioning mini-fridge. And it’s a damn fine looking mini-fridge, though it only holds about 12 cans.
The fridge is modeled after the Juggernog Perk-a-Cola dispenser from Call of Duty Zombies, and must be Activision’s way of trying to one-up Bethesda and their Fall Out 4 Pipboy Edition.  First a DLC console bundle, now a fucking mini fridge.

Destiny publisher Activision is teaming up with Sony once again for a limited-edition PlayStation 4 bundle, this time for the upcoming expansion The Taken King, Sony announced today.
The PS4 from the original Destiny bundle last fall came in a solid "glacier white" color. This time around, the top/right side of the console is imprinted with Destiny's map of the cosmos in gray and the Guardian seal in gold. The unit includes a 500 GB hard drive, and comes with a matching white controller.

Also included in the bundle is a physical copy of the Legendary Edition of The Taken King, which costs $59.99 on its own. The package consists of The Taken King — $39.99 by itself — along with Destiny and its first two expansions. The PS4 bundle also comes with a token for an upgrade to the digital Collector's Edition of The Taken King.
The Collector's Edition, which regularly costs $79.99, offers three exotic class items with XP bonuses; three class-specific emotes; three armor shaders; and the early access weapons pack. That exclusive content has proved controversial, since Activision initially wasn't offering the items outside of the Collector's Edition. Now the content will be available on its own, but for a whopping $20.
As usual, The Taken King also offers exclusive content on PlayStation 3 and PS4. Those items will remain exclusive to PlayStation until at least fall 2016. http://www.polygon.com/2015/7/7/8907327/destiny-the-taken-king-ps4-bundleOh. My. Fucking. God.

Bernie Sanders has more than halved the gap with Hillary Clinton in the early-voting state of Iowa, according to a new poll which shows the leftwing insurgent building on his recent record-breaking public appearances with growing support among key Democratic voters.
An estimated 10,000 supporters filled an arena in Madison, Wisconsin, on Wednesday night to hear the Vermont senator call for “revolution” in American politics as he challenges Clinton for the party’s nomination in the 2016 presidential election.

Sanders told the crowd: “Tonight we have made a little bit of history. Tonight we have more people at any meeting for a candidate of president of the United States than any other candidate.”
Though still seen as a long-shot candidate when compared with the former secretary of state and establishment favourite Clinton, the momentum behind Sanders’ uncompromising progressive message is also beginning to show in opinion polling.
The latest survey in Iowa, carried out by Quinnipiac University, shows him trailing her by 33 to 52 percentage points among likely Democratic participants in the state caucuses on 1 February.

This compares with Clinton’s 60-15 point lead, more than twice as large, in the last Quinnipiac poll on 7 May and the latest CNN poll from the other key early-voting state of New Hampshire showing Clinton only eight points ahead of Sanders.

http://news.yahoo.com/robot-kills-man-volkswagen-plant-germany-200538646.htmlBERLIN (AP) — A robot has killed a contractor at one of Volkswagen's production plants in Germany, the automaker said Wednesday.

The man died Monday at the plant in Baunatal, about 100 kilometers (62 miles) north of Frankfurt, VW spokesman Heiko Hillwig said.
The 22-year-old was part of a team that was setting up the stationary robot when it grabbed and crushed him against a metal plate, Hillwig said.
He said initial conclusions indicate that human error was to blame, rather than a problem with the robot, which can be programmed to perform various tasks in the assembly process. He said it normally operates within a confined area at the plant, grabbing auto parts and manipulating them.
Another contractor was present when the incident occurred, but wasn't harmed, Hillwig said. He declined to give any more details about the case, citing an ongoing investigation .

I'm sorry, everyone. I cannot and will not back the Supreme Court decision. The Founders would be ashamed and God is ashamed. Don't pretend He isn't, Christians-who-support-this, because you'll be in for a rude awakening when the time comes. If you continue to ignore Him on this, then you better have your defense ready when He asks why you allowed this. Trash me from your friends list if you want but if you have a RIGHT to support this trash, I have the RIGHT to oppose it and to DEFEND my choice. Enjoy this victory while you can because it will come back to bite you later when the King returns. Lord, forgive them, for they don't know what they are doing. I will follow your example and forgive them as well. All we can do anymore is wait. You won't leave the world broken forever. I have to remember that.  I can taste the salt in their tears.

http://www.heraldsun.com.au/leader/west/kitten-nearly-dies-from-vegan-diet/story-fngnvmj7-1226682108386The horrific case at a North Melbourne animal hospital has prompted a warning about the dangers of people "forcing ideologies" on their pets.
Lort Smith Animal Hospital veterinarian Leanne Pinfold said the kitten was brought in this month by its owners, who were believed to be vegan.
She said the kitten's diet of potatoes, rice milk and pasta had caused it to become critically ill.
"It was extremely weak and collapsed when it came in. It was almost non-responsive," Dr Pinfold said.
The kitten was given fluids via a drip, placed on a heat pad and fed meat.
It remained in hospital for three days after which the kitten's owners were given meat to feed their pet at home, she said.
Dr Pinfold said as obligate or true carnivores, cats needed meat to survive.
She said people who wanted a pet that did not eat meat should consider other animals, such as rabbits. #SaveTheKittens

http://www.citylab.com/housing/2015/05/mapping-the-hourly-wage-needed-to-rent-a-2-bedroom-apartment-in-every-us-state/394142/Yes, the American economy is improving, and yes, we’re creating more jobs. But the hourly wages for a lot of these jobs arestagnant at best. According to the Pew Research Center, 30 percent of America’s workforce earns a near-minimum-wage salary—that’s almost 21 million people. As a cruel paradox, rents across the country keep rising.
A new report by the National Low Income Housing Coalition examines how these opposite trends play out regionally. The work maps how much an American worker needs to earn per hour in each state to rent a two-bedroom apartment. It finds that in no state can a person earning minimum wage afford such an apartment at market rent. God Damn. Thankfully you should be able to find roomate to share the load, but if one of them doesn't have a job and you're needing to cover the cost for a while...that could hurt.

I got a .50 cent raise last year for my solid performer evaluation.
Starting this year if I get solid performer again then my raise will be "a percentage of my current wage as determined by a manager."

http://kobi5.com/news/local-news/item/cracking-down-on-electronic-cigarette-use.html#.VWaLRFnn_qAEssentially, no vaping in places where it is illegal to smoke, and people under 18 can't have vaporizers. Now honestly, I feel this might be going a bit far. Sure I think it's stupid when people that look like they haven't finished high school are walking around walmart blowing vape out of their mouths because they can. But I feel vaping is "different" than smoking a cigarette inside. For instance, I gag a little and my sense of smell gets a little fucked up if someone is blowing cigarette smoke next to me. When I'm near vaporizers however, I don't get that same feeling and it makes it a more pleasant experience when I chat with smokers who vape, rather than puffing a cig. I can understand the paranoia behind ecigs, but is there actually evidence that supports the "they give off cancerous chemicals" claim in the article?

David Koch said Saturday that he and his brother Charles plan to support more than one Republican's presidential campaign this year, but they are not ready to announce who they are backing.
"We are thinking of supporting several Republicans," the billionaire Republican supporter said on The Larry Kudlow Show. Koch said the support will likely come in "the primary season, winter and next spring" and will be determined based on the policies the hopefuls back.
"If we're happy with the policies that these individuals are supporting, we will finance their campaigns," Koch told Kudlow.
The brothers are reportedly planning a massive $900 million strategy to put a Republican in the White House in 2016, including a $125 million budget next year for its flagship Americans for Prosperity, in an effort described as "beyond the biggest, boldest, broadest effort AFP has ever undertaken.
Koch himself was a candidate in the 1980 election, when he ran for vice president on the Libertarian ticket as Ed Clark's running mate. http://www.nytimes.com/2014/05/18/us/politics/quixotic-80-campaign-gave-birth-to-kochs-powerful-network.html
Koch told Kudlow the experience was "wonderful" but since that time, he and his brother have shifted their influence to the Republican ticket, where "we do our best to find outstanding public candidates. We think that we've done a good job in many ways, and we're going to continue to support free market Republicans."
He's often been referred to as a "fiscal conservative and a social liberal," Kudlow pointed out, with Koch agreeing with that assessment.
With social issues, "individuals should conduct themselves in a proper way...and don't force people to do things they don't want to do," said Koch.
This year, Koch said, he'd like to see "a broad range of Republicans" voting for candidates, as long as people of "stature and quality" can be elected.
....yeah, it's DEFINITELY fiscally conservative to spend $900 fucking million dollars on a White House campaign. This disgusted me. It's not uncommon knowledge that money fuels our politics, but I still couldn't help but feel my skin crawl while reading this.

http://fox2now.com/2015/05/20/ferguson-paving-project-may-impact-michael-brown-memorial/Officials say that there needs to be a more permanent memorial to the teen and objects in the street are a safety hazard. The items placed in the middle of the street were removed on Wednesday by Michael Brown Sr. and volunteers. They will be placed in storage by the Urban League. A paving project to improve Canfield Drive is slated to start soon. ed.
Michael Brown’s father says a plaque will be placed in the sidewalk on Canfield Drive near where Michael Brown was shot and killed. Ferguson Mayor James Knowles III says a permanent place to remember Michael Brown may be set up near the Canfield Green Apartment complex.
Canfield Drive is where Brown, who was black, was shot and killed by white police officer Darren Wilson, touching off often violent protests and a national “Black Lives Matter” movement. Wilson later resigned. Yes, let's honor a criminal that strong armed a store owner for come cigars... By rightfully stepping on the plaque.
