The Austrian daredevil Felix Baumgartner set a world record today when he jumped out of a balloon gondola 24 miles above New Mexico. Preliminary indications are that his rate of descent exceeded the speed of sound before his parachute opened a few thousand feet above the Earth.
In other news, thousands of Muslims protested outside the London offices of Google over the continued hosting of the notorious Mohammed movie by YouTube.

"Norwegian" "rebel" killed in Syria
His younger brother is supposedly, still in Syria, according to VG.
- Sad. (...) ..one of the nicest and funniest persons...., a friend of "the young man" says of the "rebel" who was killed recently, in the vicinity of Aleppo, fighting Al Assad's forces.
Yet, another "Norwegian" "rebel" in Syria! The one who has threatened the people of Norway with a local 9/11.
Here in richly vibrant and exciting multicultural Britain, the 14-year-old girl shot by the Taliban in Pakistan for promoting female eduction has just arrived to receive treatment for her injuries in a Birmingham hospital.
For those or you not aware of this, Birmingham, England, is probably well ahead in the race to become England's first city with an afro-asian majority.
Had it been 1952 instead of 2012 when the number of afro-asians in Birmingham could be counted on the fingers of one hand then this little girl would have been taken to their hearts by the English and afforded all the help and hospitality we could muster. By the way her entire family are at her bedside with her and of course will undoubtedly claim asylum as it will not be safe for her and them to return to Pakistan.
However, in vibrant multicultural 21st century Birmingham it is not safe for them there either and the entire family are being guarded at the hospital by an armed guard.
I don't think he has instructions to shoot potential ethnic English well wishers. No he is there to shoot the potential terrorists who are all over Britain now and definitely in Birmingham. For as we know the mp for an area of Birmingham known as Perry Bar, a gentleman of Pakistani heritage called Khalid Mahmoud, has said that there are many young people in his constituency who are going to join Al Qaeda and the Taliban in their fight in Syria against President Assad. So undoubtedly there are Taliban sympathisers
England's second city now prepared to bomb or shoot their way into the hospital and finish the girl off.
Please remember that this is the city in which Enoch Powell made his rivers of blood speech in 1968 warning what a multicultural England would mean for its indigenous citizens and urging its immediate dismantling. At the time there were 80,000 muslims in Britain. Now there are at least 3 million and probably many more than 80,000 in Birmingham alone.
Interesting facts and thoughts from England, 4:50. How terrible, that the Taliban she is fleeing is present and willing to kill in England.
Sweden: Asylum seekers complain about
Bad spirit in asylum castle
Asylum seekers/refugees - Does it make any difference as long as it is all about getting access to the Swedish money and free ride?
Edit
Interesting facts and thoughts from England, 4:50. How terrible, that the Taliban she is standing up to is present and ready to kill her in England, as our formerly(!) civilized, world is incapable of protecting us against the barbars.
