Okay, this works great for me. I have to post it on a site which will take javascript, and then link to it, but it works. I use blogs.ie or blogsome.com for that. An example is this page. These Lj type journals willna take the code. Copy this code I have in the text box, and change MY urls to YOURS. Then let Google settle into what you are asking. Dun get too fancy too fast. :D | ||||||||||

By MAGGIE GALEHOUSE LIFESTYLE WRITER http://www.chron.com June 28, 2009 When someone famous dies, Michael Baden’s phone starts ringing. The 74-year-old forensic pathologist — who smiles merrily when asked about his “detective of death” nickname — got one of those calls last month, the day after David Carradine was found dead in a Bangkok hotel room. The first autopsy said that the cause of death was asphyxiation; the Kung Fu and Kill Bill actor was found naked with a rope around his neck. But the Carradine family wanted a second autopsy when the body was flown back to Los Angeles. Baden agreed to do it.In 1992, Dr. Michael Baden and others determined that skeletal remains found a year earlier in Siberia were those of Tsar Nicholas II, other members of the Romanov royal family and their servants. “I was looking for any evidence of homicide or suicide,” says Baden, his large, smooth hands working a cell phone and a plate of quesadillas as he explains the focus of his autopsy. “We ruled out suicide and death by natural causes.” But he hasn’t ruled out homicide or accidental death due to sexual experimentation. “We’re waiting for video from the security cameras at the hotel and the electric key usage into the room,” Baden says. “We’re also waiting for the toxicology report.” “We’re waiting for video from the security cameras at the hotel and the electric key usage into the room,” Baden says. “We’re also waiting for the toxicology report.” This congenial man, whose cell phone rings the Pink Panther theme song, passed through Texas recently to promote Skeleton Justice, his second mystery novel co-written with his wife, attorney Linda Kenney Baden. The book tour is a relatively low-profile gig for Baden, chief forensic pathologist for the New York State Police and host of the Autopsy documentary specials on HBO. As the post-mortem Michael Jackson drama demonstrates, the death of a well-known person can captivate the public — especially when questions linger. And Baden has investigated some of the highest-profile deaths of the past century. ( >>Read on ) | ||||||||||

From riderless horses disappearing through castle walls mischievous spirits apparently barging into visitors, English Heritage has compiled a new survey of "hauntings" and unexplained events recorded at its sites. By Jasper Copping Telegraph 27 Jun 2009 ![]() Battle Abbey, close to the site of the Battle of Hastings The so-called “spectral stocktake” reveals a series of mysterious occurrences, many of which have prompted investigations by staff. Some incidents are said to have led staff to resign. At one castle, employees have established protocols on how to deal with suspected sightings of ghosts or unexplained events. One medieval palace is even said to be haunted by a former member of staff. Many of the events involve staff and visitors seeing mysterious figures, while others involve complaints that people were pinched or pushed, when there was nobody standing near them. Some reports involve items being moved around sites. At Castle Rising, a 12th century keep in Norfolk, which was once the exile place of Queen Isabella, widow – and alleged murderess – of Edward II, “paranormal investigators” were called in by staff to conduct tests following sightings by visitors, many of whom claimed to have seen figures dressed in monks’ clothes.

Belfast Telegraph 6 November 2008 ![]() A Japanese man has enlisted hundreds of people in a campaign to allow marriages between humans and cartoon characters, saying he feels more at ease in the "two-dimensional world." Comics books are hugely popular in Japan. Marriage is meanwhile on the decline as many younger people find it difficult to find partners. Taichi Takashita launched an online petition aiming for one million signatures to present to the government to establish a law on marriages with cartoon characters. "I am no longer interested in three dimensions. I would even like to become a resident of the two-dimensional world," explained Taichi Takashita. "Therefore, at the very least, would it be possible to legally authorize marriage with a two-dimensional character?" | ||||||||||

This article didna grab my attention because of the hugeness of the pumpkin, as I have seen this before. But it had this description of its outrageous rate of growth--AT NIGHT, when no one was looking. It almost makes it sound like an ALIEN BEING! :O Smashing Pumpkin Ian and Stuart Paton's pumpkin weighed in at 1,457lb - more than 104 stone - and had to be lifted by forklift truck... "At it's fastest stage this one was growing at 30lb a day - that's more than two stone. "Pumpkins do most of their growing at night and it may even have managed up to 50lb in 24 hours if it was as warm as 25 degrees celsius overnight." An original Mini [car] weighs 1,360lb (617kg). | ||||||||||
