GravatarTangential to all this talk of Thanksgiving recipes, I must create a command performance dinner tonight. The centerpiece of it is going to be some kind of Grand Boef, but I haven't quite decided what variety yet. Prime Rib is pretty foolproof, but I'm a bit uninspired by it.

GravatarMore than 1,500 people are now known to have died after a powerful cyclone ripped through southern and central Bangladesh, officials have said.

The government announced that 1,595 bodies had been recovered so far and that the toll was expected to rise.

Rescuers are trying to reach hundreds of thousands of survivors but debris and floods are hampering their efforts.

Cyclone Sidr destroyed or damaged tens of thousands of homes, brought down power lines and wiped out vital crops.

GravatarHere's a humble household hint to perk up the season a bit:

Add thought bubbles to your paper currency, here's a few suggestions:

#1.) Fuck Bush. My favorite. Sometimes there's nothing like writing Fuck Bush. Oopsie. Just did it again Usually I add this one to the right of George or Abe or Andy.

2.) Fuck the GOP. Usually goes on the left.

3.) Fuck [Insert the Gop'er of your choice here.]

4.) Sometimes I add "The GOP is a cargo cult." on the back.

Few things tickle the funny bone more than seeing George, Abe, Andy or Benjy say Fuck Bush Wouldn't it be great to see hundreds, thousands, or maybe even millions of bills with Fuck Bush on 'em?


GravatarA 5.5m long minke whale has been spotted more than 1600km (994 miles) from the Atlantic Ocean, deep inside the Amazon rain forest.

The whale ran aground earlier this week but after being freed with the help of vets and biologists it disappeared shortly afterwards.

It is the second time this week in Brazil that a lost animal has been spotted in an unexpected location.

The minke whale ran aground on a sandbar deep inside the Amazon.

Local people had been splashing water on the whale's back and fin while it was exposed to the hot Amazon sun.

GravatarNobel peace prize winner Al Gore is booked as the star turn and a dinner of Aberdeen Angus beef and pink champagne jelly awaits. The Fortune Forum Summit, to be held later this month, is poised to be the richest gathering yet of Britain's "new philanthropists".

Under the vaulted brick ceilings of the Royal Courts of Justice in London, an elite band of the rich, famous and powerful - worth a combined £100bn, according to the organisers - will hatch plans to tackle climate change, poverty, Aids, cancer and malaria.

But despite their astronomical wealth, these philanthropists will not be reaching deep into their pockets just yet. They plan to trade in a different coin: influence.

As a fundraiser, the inaugural party last year didn't add up to much. Bill Clinton, who has made a second career of persuading the super-rich to give, grabbed the headlines with a speech and Michael Douglas schmoozed with Yusuf Islam and Lakshmi Mittal, Britain's richest man.

The Kenosha Kid

Like an old man returning his soup at a deli.


GravatarBAGHDAD — At 18, Zahraa Abdulrasool married a man 15 years her senior, a good man, she said, who never refused a day's work. To support his family, he drove a truck from Basra to Baghdad, a perilous journey in these days of war, sectarian violence and lawlessness.

"I pleaded with him to stop," she said, " to find some other kind of work, but there was no other work."

On a spring day in 2004, he again set off for Baghdad. He never returned. His body was found on the side of a road. He was shot to death, his truck torched and destroyed. At 23, Abdulrasool was a widow.

"I lost my husband, father of my two boys and my only support in this world," she said.

Alone to raise her family, she fell into despair. Her way out was to remarry, again and again and again. She betrothed herself to men who provided dowries and a sense of security and comfort, if only fleetingly.

"It has become a way of life to me," she said.

These temporary marriages — called mutaa or "pleasure" marriages — are said to be on the rise in Iraq, where the ravages of war have made widows of thousands of women. Car bombs, snipers, hoodlums and the random chaos that have gripped the country for the past four years have broken thousands of families.

GravatarThe US justice department is investigating the soaring building costs for a huge American embassy in Baghdad. Postponing its scheduled opening last month, the state department said it didn't "have an answer" as to when it would be finished.

The embassy was supposed to have opened by now but has suffered from repeated postponements because work has either been judged to be below standard or because of design changes.

The original budget for the embassy, the biggest US one in the world, was $592m (£296m) but this has jumped by a further $144m.

Indeed it is.

Braised it with some nice, rich chicken stock, diced tomatoes, more wine, and roasted garlic. 'Twas indeed the schizzle.

But alas, a bit downscale for what I'm about this time....

GravatarOil prices rose back above $95 a barrel on Friday on expectations that an Opec summit would not debate raising output.

The jump came after a day of losses caused by a surprise build in US crude stocks and forecast of lower demand.

US light, sweet crude gained $1.67 to $95.10 a barrel. London Brent crude was up $1.39 cents at $91.62 a barrel.

The Opec members' leaders are holding a summit in Riyadh this weekend, but the group argues that current supplies of oil are adequate.

Opec said on Thursday that oil demand in the last quarter of 2007 would rise by 1.97%, less than predicted in October.

On Friday, Venezuela's oil minister Rafael Ramirez told reporters there was no need to raise output levels at the group's policy meeting in December.

"No, there is enough oil in the market," he said in the Saudi capital.

Reports that Opec ministers were planning to release a statement rejecting US requests to increase production also pushed up prices, analysts said.

GravatarThe government department spearheading the fight against climate change is planning an emergency package of at least £300m of cuts covering key environmental services, the Guardian has learned.

Frontline agencies tackling recycling, nature protection, energy saving, carbon emissions and safeguarding the environment are all being targeted in the package which is being drawn up by Helen Ghosh, the top civil servant at the Department for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs.

Details of the cuts have emerged just as the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change is due to publish its latest report. The study, to be made public today ahead of a UN climate meeting in Bali, will warn that all forms of carbon pollution from flights to inefficient light bulbs must become more expensive if the world is to avert catastrophic effects of warming.

The disclosure of the Defra cuts plan will embarrass Gordon Brown, who is expected next week to give a major speech on climate change, recommitting Britain to supplying a fifth of its energy requirements from renewables by 2020. Previously government officials had said Britain would struggle to meet the target and lobbied to be allowed to use different statistics.

Gravatarcertainly this was not mentioned in the estate agents - Police have resumed their search for more bodies buried at a house in Margate, Kent, as the family living there expressed horror at the gruesome discoveries.

The remains of two teenage girls were found buried at the three-bedroom property this week, and police are examining 10 other possible "hotspots" where alterations have been carried out.

Police have identified the remains as those of missing 15-year-old Vicky Hamilton, while a second skeleton is thought to be that of Dinah McNicol, 18.

The family who had been living at the Margate house described the experience as "devastating and unreal".

In a statement read by police today, resident Nicola Downing said the discovery had turned the family’s life upside down. They have been moved to a hotel while their home is pulled apart.

"I can only describe it as a nightmare that gets worse every day. We lived in that house for 12 years and we had a happy family home," she said.

GravatarPolice and clergy in southern Russia are trying to negotiate with members of a doomsday cult barricaded inside a cave and threatening to blow it up.

The group calls itself the "True Russian Orthodox Church". Members are waiting for the end of the world, which they are expecting to happen next May.

They say they have enough food and water to last out the winter, as well as large quantities of petrol.

The cult leader did not join them, and has been arrested by police.

Russian television showed pictures of black-robed Orthodox monks scaling down into a snow-covered gully in a forest in the Penza region, about 650km (400 miles) south-east of Moscow.
