If you like awesome music then check out Wu-Tang's '8 Diagrams' album. I can't believe I hadn't heard this before.

The music on this album is so diverse, I thought I liked the Wu-tang dubstep album that came out recently but '8 Diagrams' is heaps better.

Spaniard’s photo used for bin Laden poster - #fbi #fail #facepalm

MADRID - A Spanish lawmaker was horrified to learn that the FBI used an online photograph of him to create an image showing what Osama bin Laden might look like today.

The image using Gaspar Llamazares' photo appeared on a wanted poster updating the U.S. government's 1998 photo of the al-Qaida leader.

FBI spokesman Ken Hoffman acknowledged to the Spanish newspaper El Mundo that the agency used a picture of Llamazares taken from Google Images.

In a statement Saturday, the agency would say only that it was aware of similarities between their age-progressed image "and that of an existing photograph of a Spanish public official."

"The forensic artist was unable to find suitable features among the reference photographs and obtained those features, in part, from a photograph he found on the Internet," the FBI said in a statement to The Associated Press.

A composite image shows Osama bin Laden in April 1998, left, and two digitally enhanced and aged images released Thursday on the U.S. State Department's Web site rewardsforjustice.net showing what bin-Laden could look like today with a full beard and with his hair trimmed.

 

This is the sort of idiocy that #facepalm was invented for.
