He announced it tonight on the finale of season 10. :sad: I'm gonna miss Kevin Rudd, P.M. :bigcry:

I thought it was interesting that Coldplay posted the missing poster and information for John Regan on their Twitter account. It got me thinking if one of the band members maybe know him, maybe from college or something? He went missing in Camden (their London hangout) and is 30 (around their age), so I guess it could be possible... What do you think? Just seems odd that they are posting this particular missing case. It's so sad when people go missing, I hope he is found safe.

Millions of bank customers seeking billions of pounds of overdraft charge refunds have been dealt a major blow by a Supreme Court ruling. The court has overturned earlier court rulings that allowed the Office of Fair Trading to investigate the fairness of charges for unauthorised overdrafts. The decision follows more than two years of test case litigation. At stake is an estimated £2.6bn of annual income for the banks, which had appealed against earlier rulings. Seven banks and one building society wanted the court to overturn two previous rulings that would let the OFT investigate their overdraft fees. In a three-day appeal in the House of Lords in June, the bank…

Having friends over for dinner 'is more stressful than working' By Daniel Bates Last updated at 8:10 AM on 23rd November 2009 Comments (2) Add to My Stories The delicate balance of doing the cooking and entertaining the guests has long vexed even the most well-organised of hosts. But now, fuelled by the rise of unforgiving TV shows such as Come Dine With Me, in which any food faux pas is cruelly exposed by the guests, it seems that hosting a dinner party has become culinary nightmare. According to a survey, many of us now find that inviting friends round to share a meal is more stressful than the daily commute, seeing the bank manager or eve…

Anyone planning on seeing this upcoming film from the writer of 'No Country For Old Men'? We are currently reading the book in my English class. Here is the official trailer: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fDq-HwncUYQ]YouTube- the road - trailer 4 hd (1080p)[/ame] However, that is a falsely easy to handle portrayal of the story. This highly disturbing film clip is a little more accurate: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=onBVYB_M6bo]YouTube- The Road - Clip 3 - Bad Guys[/ame] The book is morbid and somewhat horrible to read although it is quite incredibly written. Not a movie for the faint of heart, but if you can handle some messed up shit, it loo…

After much secrecy and a long development period, Hungry Jack's will today ramp up its battle with McDonald's by launching the Angry Angus burger. Available with either single or double patties, it features the highly-sought beef variety along with bacon, cheese, salad and a corn-dusted bun. It is also loaded with "angry onions" which are fried and spiced plus three condiments in mayonnaise, ketchup and mustard. But despite similarities in the Angus beef campaigns — and the fact that McDonald's launched its burgers about three months earlier — Hungry Jack's insists it is not imitating the global giant. "It's been in planning for quite some time, the last thing…

Argentina kicked off their World Cup qualifying campaign with a 2-0 win over Chile in Buenos Aires. Juan Roman Riquelme was the hero for the home with two superb trademark free kicks in the first half. Riquelme, who has not played for Villarreal this season, showed no sign of rustiness as he inspired Argentina to all three points. The classy playmaker broke the deadlock on 27 minutes when he curled his free kick from the edge of the box into the top corner. Riquelme repeated the act right on the stroke of half-time to double Argentina's lead with another clinical free kick from 30 yards out. Any hopes Chile had of getting back into the game went up…

A cure for coughing could be in the offing By Neil Sears Last updated at 8:36 AM on 23rd November 2009 Comments (3) Add to My Stories Agony: Chronic coughing could be cured thanks to new research Experts have come a step closer to finding a cure for coughing. For the first time the process that leads to the reflex has been identified, according to researchers. Often a cough in response to breathing in smoke, for example, carries out a useful purpose in swiftly clearing the airways with a sudden expulsion of air from the lungs. But if the coughing is persistent, and without obvious cause, it can be very stressful. Repeated coug…

Working women tell men they're useless at housework 'because it makes them feel more feminine' By Liz Hull Last updated at 7:01 PM on 22nd November 2009 Comments (6) Add to My Stories Working women have long complained that their men don't pull their weight when it comes to household chores. But a man's lack of effort on the domestic front could actually be a myth created by their wives, researchers have found. According to a major new study, female breadwinners exaggerate their partner's uselessness around the home because they feel guilty about devoting too much time to their career, and not enough to their role of wife and mother. Wome…
