A BRASKY VACATION!!!!
Luxury ocean liners in Russia are offering pirate hunting cruises aboard armed private yachts off the Somali coast.
The ships deliberately cruise close to the coast at a speed of just five nautical miles in an attempt to attract the interest of pirates.
Wealthy clients pay £3,500 per day to patrol the most dangerous waters in the world hoping to be attacked by raiders.
When attacked, they retaliate with grenade launchers, machine guns and rocket launchers, reports Austrian business paper Wirtschaftsblatt.
Passengers, who can pay an extra £5 a day for an AK-47 machine gun and £7 for 100 rounds of ammo, are also protected by a squad of ex special forces troops.

North Korea Threatens to 'Wipe Out' U.S.
SEOUL, South Korea — North Korea threatened Wednesday to wipe the United States off the map as Washington and its allies watched for signs the regime will launch a series of missiles in the coming days.
Off China's coast, a U.S. destroyer was tailing a North Korean ship suspected of transporting illicit weapons to Burma in what could be the first test of U.N. sanctions passed to punish the nation for an underground nuclear test last month.

Uncle Sam - 2 Conquistadores - 0
Spain's record-breaking winning streak came to an end as they lost 2-0 to USA in the first semi-final of the Confederations Cup.
Having cruised through their group without conceding a goal, Spain were looking to seal a 16th successive victory against a USA side that only scraped into the last four on goal difference thanks to a 3-0 success over Egypt on Sunday.
But USA produced an inspired performance against Vicente del Bosque's men and claimed a famous win courtesy of goals from Jozy Altidore and Clint Dempsey.

GERONIMOOOOOOOOO!!!!! v. Skull and Bones Society
Twenty descendants of Geronimo, the 19th century Apache chief, are suing Yale and its infamous secret society Skull & Bones to demand the return of their ancestor's skull and punitive damages, the Yale Daily News reports. Because Geronimo's remains were initially buried on a U.S. military base, several government officials, including President Barack Obama, Secretary of Defense Robert Gates, and Secretary of the Army Pete Geren, also were named in the suit, filed in U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia.
The suit alleges that members of Skull and Bones exhumed his remains in 1918 or 1919 and transported them to the society's High Street tomb in New Haven. The group that is rumored to have stolen Geronimo's skull, bones and other items from his grave site is said to have included Prescott Bush, father of former President George H. W. Bush '48 and grandfather to former President George W. Bush '68.
It's unclear whether the society does in fact have possession of the skull.

Why didn't I think of this... So simple... So Genius
There have been countless times that I have attempted to perform this balancing act, (every time there is some sort of party or BBQ.) The balancing act goes good for around 30 seconds before I have food on my shirt or all over the floor. It would have been much easier to come up with this.
Perfect for parties and buffet-style events, the plate stays put while you eat. When you want to take a drink, simply lift the plate off!

Kaka reluctantly joins Spanish club to help financially troubled AC Milan and gets paid
The 27-year-old Brazilian is believed to have signed for around £59m ($94.05m), which beats the world record transfer fee of £46.7m ($75.3m) paid by Real to Juventus for Zinedine Zidane in 2001.
Kaka, who was also a target for Premier League club Chelsea, revealed that he turned down a £100m move to Manchester City in January because he did not want to leave Milan mid-season.
"Manchester City and Real Madrid are two different clubs with different situations. At that time, it was mid-season, I had a strong emotional impact due to the Italian fans requesting me to stay, and I decided to stay.
"Now another chance came up and AC Milan is in a big crisis (financially). For me, the sporting project (at Madrid) is interesting and will be an important boost to continue my career in the highest level.
"I wanted to stay on at Milan, but the world (financial) crisis affected a lot of clubs, especially those like Milan which are businesses. So then, I spoke with the Milan directors and we reached the conclusion that the best thing for everybody would be to sell."
"I want to thank Milan, as they were the club who put me on the international scene. They gave me the opportunity to become a big name in Europe.
"I'm happy to leave Milan by the front door, with a lot of friends. It has been very emotional to see what the Milan fans have done for me."
