Gov: UK biofuel probably made of starvation, rainforests

What happened to the food mountains

Yes, people are going hungry, so we can't divert food production to fuel, but weren't we being told about european food mountains a few short years ago? Caused by subsidies and overproduction if I remember correctly. Only one of those things can be true.

Random article talking about excess food production: http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/life_and_style/health/article439730.ece

O2 buckles under 3G iPhone demand

Queued for two hours, but got one

In Richmond (on Thames, Surrey). Shot had about 100 iPhones, of which about 20 were 16G. There was a second batch delivered just as I got to the front of the queue, so I managed to get a 16G one.

It's still not been activated as far as I can tell, but I'm porting my number over so it's not really a big problem.
