The news that's fit to link

Work- and home-life of the Flea have been extra hectic for the last week. One consequence is a stack of unlinked links cluttering multiple browser windows. By way of tidying up a bit:

Henry VIII reveals his softer side in never-before-seen gushing love letter to Anne Boleyn.

British lbraries put Koran on top shelf. The Bible, a collection of books people are meant to read, follows and is now safely out-of-reach.

Indian army eliminates 1,256 "militants" in Jammu and Kashmir and the North East in 2008. World's progressives, neo-Nazis and Muslim dictatorships strangely unoutraged.

Syria building chemical weapons plant. For peaceful chemical weapons, presumably.

Obama wants to reopen NAFTA. Sucks to be you, NDP voters. Enjoy your Hope and Change bumper stickers.

Greens waste more energy. Piety levels remain unaltered.

Replacing Michelle Obama.

Books, not bombs.

You call that a love letter? I'd hate to see what happens when you actually despise someone...

1528 huh? That's a full 5 years before he married her, and had his previous marriage anulled. I presume someone gave it to the Catholic church as proof of his adultery against Catherine or Aragon.

This tells me two things; Never trust a Welshman and The Catholic church will hold paper on your ass for a long damn time.
