Ah the days when you could only get ringtones via your friendly Big Telco.

This is badass

How on earth is Kewell's accidental handball warrant a RED CARD?

While Vidic's intentional handball is a YELLOW CARD?

Well thats because the Referee of Vidic's match UNDERSTOOD THE RULES. Unlike ROSETTI.

In FIFA's Laws of the Game (2005), Law 12 states that a free kick or penalty will be awarded if a player "handles the ball deliberately (except for the goalkeeper within his own penalty area)".

It adds: "Referees are reminded that deliberately handling the ball is normally punished only by a direct free-kick or penalty kick if the offence occurred inside the penalty area. FIFA continues …"A caution or dismissal is not normally required."

According to this;
- Vidic should have been a spot kick + yellow card (which it was)
- Kewell's should have been a spot kick only (no card as arm was in a natural position). Ah two World Cup's in a row that the Italians have knocked the Aussies out!

So I just cracked open a new iPad, plugged it in to de-brick it, fired up iTunes, and then sat around for 10 mins waiting for the USB Screen Of Death to disappear...

Alas, the geniuses at Apple strike again.

Turns out that if your iTunes doesn't recognize your iPad, you may need to run Software Update to get the latest iPhone SDK Compatibility Update;

I ordered a bunch of books from Amazon, they took about a month to get here to South Africa (expected), but they arrived in a BAG ??!.

I thought it rather strange that Amazon would ship items halfway across the world in a bag. Surely not?

Of course not, SA Customs was to blame.

Upon opening the bag I was able to see the extent of the damage caused to my books by SA Customs a) ripping the Amazon box to pieces and b) not bothering to tape it back up again.

And of course several of the books, especially the paperbacks sustained enough damage to age them 5 years.

Well done SA Customs. Seriously, WTF are you guys smoking?
