Mr T, the star of the 80s TV show the A Team is set to make a comeback on a Dr Phil style talkshow, dishing out advice to audience members. The show's called 'I Pity the Fool' and should start in the US in October.
When asked about the show, Mr T said, “You're a fool if you don't take my advice.”
Mr T was a legend, I just hope he doesn't taint the greatness of the A Team.
For a sneak peek at the future of computing, go to YouOS and click "Try a Demo." Your browser window turns into a desktop of its own, with sub-windows for e-mail, chat, and Web browsing. There are also links on the YouOS desktop for a sticky-notes program and a rich-text editor. But these programs aren't on your hard drive, they're running somewhere in the vast unknown Internet.
YouOS is the fledgling startup of four recent college grads with a bit of angel funding. Its simplicity makes it a great demo. Anyone who logs on can instantly spot the big idea: You don't need Windows! You don't even need a PC! You can login and work from anywhere using any gadget with a screen and a keyboard.
Just because the demo and the name are cool doesn't mean YouOS will replace Windows. It does, however, serve as a proof-of-concept for people who doubt the viability of Web-based operating systems. Check out YouOS for 10 minutes, then imagine the same project on a billion-dollar budget. Now do you think the mythical Google PC that's allegedly being secretly developed in Silicon Valley, or in China or on a Ukrainian IRC channel will become reality?
I can really see this as being the future, there'd be no need for any client side OS, apart from the browser you need to view the webpage. 
The six-year-old mascot for a British army battalion has been demoted in disgrace for acting the goat during a parade in full view of dignitaries.
Billy Goat has been a mascot of the First Battalion, the Royal Welsh regiment, since he was six months old and had the official rank of lance-corporal before his frisky antics during a parade marking Queen Elizabeth’s official birthday earlier this month.
The army said he had been demoted to fusilier (private) as a result of his behavior.
“The goat major had a hard time keeping him in line, he was bouncing around all over the place,†military spokesman Captain Crispian Coates told Reuters Saturday. “This is his first overseas tour. He has certainly not made a good start for himself.â€
When Katey Sagal visited The Late Late Show the other day, she told Craig that the show is coming back to Comedy Central in 2008 for at least 13 episodes (I was watching that appearance, too. Must have slept through that part). Don Kaplan of the New York Post confirmed this; his sources told him that all the primary voice actors signed new deals this week. Also according to the article, FOX may have the option to air the new episodes, but probably won't. The new episodes will also come out on DVD after they air.
There were rumours of this last year, but it's good to see they finally confirmed it!
Andrew Hawkins – the descendent of one of the first British slave traders, Sir John Hawkins – kneeled in chains in front of 25,000 Africans in Gambia and asked for forgivness.
Next year marks the 200th anniversary of the abolition of slavery in the UK. Mr Hawkins and organisers of his trip to Africa say not enough has been done to apologise for the wrong of slavery.
So should we say sorry for enslaving africans? They seem to have pretty much paid us back for what we did by increasing the amount of crime in the US and creating rap.
Apologize? Back to work!
I had my last ever A-Level exam today, which officially means no more school/sixth form or crazy rules. I need grades BBC to get into Sheffield University to study German and Russian.
Researches in Japan have made a CGI simulation of what would happen if an asteroid hit the Earth… it would be destroyed. They obviously forgot to factor in Bruce Wiliis.

A recent trailer for the latest X-Men movie has a line taken from the massively famous “Juggernaut Bitch” video by Naztradamix. The dubbed version of a transformers clip was popular last year.
It’s a clear sign the world’s gone mad when an axe wielding nutter dressed as a lizard monster wins Eurovision. Just when everyone was expecting “We are stars of eurovision” to win, Lordi suprised everyone. They even gave the lead singer some flowers for his dungeon…

The man cannon is design to hurl SWAT team members and other emergency personnel onto otherwise inaccessible rooftops. It consists of a forward-facing chair mounted on rails that point at an angle of up to 80°. Powered by compressed air, the “payload” would shoot up until the saddle reaches the end of the rails, at which point he would flail free skyward.
Seems like a great idea, but what if the SWAT guy has an extra clip in his pocket that shifts his weight…
