Need to have quick, free access to usenet for a short time? Hitnews gives you a free 7 day trial that doesn't require a credit card or anything else. Looks like you can publish with that account as well.

And if you need to search through the newsgroups? I use binsearch to find stuff and see what's been uploaded.

edit: Here's the english site, by the way.

I hope that cup of joe was worth it

Stolen from here:

According to the Salt Lake Tribune 6 [BYU] Freshman have been suspended from practice only after violating team rules. No details were made clear for the suspension, but since it is only practice it probably was for missing study hall or missing a weight session. However Freshman Ryan Kessman was one of the 6 and ask for and granted a release from his scholarship. His reasons were explained

[Kessman] was suspended for drinking a vanilla cappuccino, breaking curfew and missing a weight-lifting workout.

As a note Kessman is not Mormon but is of Jewish faith and he has left the school and is looking into UCLA as a potential school.

That's right. The players got the boot for drinking some coffee.

I don't know if I should be impressed for the school's sticking to their beliefs or going "WTF?"

The end of the first season for Avatar: the Last Airbender. It's a double episode so it's long. I'll start adding in the second season shortly.

Part #2 is after the fold.

Description: The Northern Water Tribe braces against the attack by the Fire Nation. Meanwhile, Zuko sneaks into the North Pole to capture the Avatar. Aang, realizing that the Water Tribe cannot defeat Zhao's fleet alone, decides to visit the Spirit World to get help from the Moon and Ocean spirits.

This was an interesting read about saving on fuel while driving your car. And nice to see an article about saving gasoline that's not a rip off.
