Samsung preps anti-iPhone 5 lawsuit before it's even out

It could force a ceasefire

This attack from Samsung could force Apple to stop their patent war, much like how USA and Soviet waved their nuclear arsenals at each other. You may be able to give me trouble, but I can do the same to you.

I hope (and believe) that this is the reason Samsung haven't done this before, and hopefully won't do this to other manufacturers. It's just a show of weapons to try to restore order. Hopefully it works, and this patent nonsense can stop.

Midlands council laughs at zombie-apocalypse threat

WTF?

Public information?

I surely hope someone is having fun here. If not, I'm a little bit impressed that someone who believes in zombies are aware of their FOI rights.

On the other hand, emergency plans for zombie attacks should possibly not be public, as a safety measure. But then again, zombies are rather simple minded and wouldn't care about the plans, would they?

Zep fans warned off touted tickets

On the other hand, it could be nice for people who cannot stand in line at a ticket office or sit by the computer at the right time (when the ticket sale starts) to be able to get tickets. With today's system, those who can't buy the ticket during the 30 minutes before everything is sold out, will have to go to the ticket sharks and risk paying £3,750 instead of the original £125.

Ok, maybe the average ticket price would be higher than £125, but all tickets wouldn't cost £3,750.
