Chuck’s Hand-Picked Overnight Weird News for Saturday
Britain's least-parentally-successful radical Muslim cleric
Rabble-rousing Omar Bakri Mohammed, who was kicked out, to Lebanon, after the 7/7 London subway attacks, now knows that a daughter he left behind, Yasmin Fostok, 26, is a smokin' part-time model with breast implants, does a little topless here, a little pole-dancing there, despite having worn a veil most of her teen years. Omar said it all must be lies by the infidels. Daily Mail

Sounds like a joke: Securities and Exchange Commission kills its regulation program for investment banks
Chairman Christopher Cox put his foot down and said, by God, he's ending the program because it hasn't seemed to work. Er, maybe that's because it was voluntary. Seriously. When the European Union threatened in 2002 to regulate U.S. investment banks doing business there (but said they'd hold off if the U.S. regulated them), the gov't's regulatory cowboys came up with this voluntary regulation of disclosure and forbearance, but the companies could drop out any time they wanted. Now, if you haven't been keeping up with the financial news: The five largest investment banks are all dead. New York Times

On a Japanese runway, models wearing diapers
It's actually a sorta festival sponsored by the Aging Lifestyle Research Center and others to show Japan's swelling numbers of seniors that there are many varieties of absorbent wear. The Japan Today report fails to mention the silent younger audience of diaper perverts (which probably won't switch from baby-style nappies, anyway). Japan Today

Instant reincarnation in Nakhon Nayok
For the equivalent of about $5, Buddhists line up at a Thai temple to lie inside coffin things for a few minutes while priests chant some magic words, and when they alight, they're supposed to feel like another whole person, kind of. But while you're waiting your turn, don't stand directly behind the coffin, because that's where the current customer's evilness is wafting out. 50.0 percent of one's destiny lies in his name, and the ther 50.0 percent by date of birth, so be careful when making a reservation at the temple.

Your Daily Jury Duty
[no fair examining the evidence; verdict must be based on mugshot only]
Ryder Laramore, who is also alleged to be a cross-dresser, but how could that be, because his day job is F State probation officer, and he's the son of the local public defender. Anyway, that's irrelevant under the direction of you, Jury 2.0! Panama City News Herald

Here is photographer Chris Jordan's picture of a sorta-illustration of a woman's bare chest [so if you're really, really sensitive, it's Not Safe For Work™], but it's really his commentary on the ridiculous number of U.S. women each month (32,000) who get boob jobs, and the sorta-illustration is composed of 32,000 artistically arranged Barbie dolls. Metro (London) [Link from Abroath]
