Fox News Twitter Account Hacked
August 1st 2011 02:36
On the fourth of July the Fox News Twitter account was hacked and displayed the news that Barack Obama was assassinated. The tweets were up for a number of hours before being deleted.
Interestingly, if this were true Barack Obama would have been the 4th president to die on July 4th, the others are:
Thomas Jefferson-1826, age-83
John Adams-1826, age-90
James Monroe-1831, age-73

Renumeration of Country Leaders
August 6th 2010 03:27
Leaders of the fee world
How much a country's leader is paid compared to GDP per person?
How much a country's leader is paid compared to GDP per person?
As reported by The Economist, Kenya's prime minister was recently awarded a pay increase that would make him one of the highest-paid political leaders in the world. Incredibly, his new annual salary of $430,000 (in US dollars) would be 240 times greater than Kenya's GDP per person.
How much are the world's leaders paid and is there a great variance between countries?
The graph below will answer those questions. It reveals that while American President Barack Obama earns $400,000 per year, this pales in comparison to Lee Hsien Loong, the prime minister of Singapore who takes home a whopping $2.2 million.
Manmohan Singh, the prime minister of India on the other hand receives a meagre $4,000 of taxpayer’s money each year.
