| Harry Potter: The devil himself? | ||||
 |
Pope Benedict believes the Harry Potter books subtly seduce young readers and "distort Christianity in the soul" before it can develop properly, according to comments attributed to him by a German writer. Gabriele Kuby, who has written a book called "Harry Potter - Good or Evil," which attacks J.K. Rowling's best selling series about the boy wizard, published extracts from two letters written to her by Benedict in 2003, when he was a cardinal. Kuby, a devout Catholic, had sent him a copy of her Potter critique and he wrote to thank her, according to a passage from one of the letters published in German on her Web site. |

| Master Weirdo: Anus surgery | ||||
 |
This is no advertisement people! also see the article on: ass surgery or read the full story here, it's...it's weird trust me. I recently had my ass operated. Not as in: "I had my ass kicked." A surgeon actually used a scalpel on my anus. I'm writing this information piece on my experience in the interest of the general public. People who needed this procedure don't actually walk around with t-shirts bearing the slogan: "Ask me about anus surgery." They don't go to support groups announcing their presence with a "Hi, my name is Leon and I've had my ass cut." So I'm breaking the silence. I'm telling you what it's like. And most importantly, what you can do to avoid the plight that was mine.  |

The man's family told police he had argued with his sister Wednesday over some money she'd borrowed and not repaid. He went into his bedroom, where his body was found ten hours later.
