You have to see this: Queenie in trouble. (ETA: better safe than sorry: WARNING TRIGGERING.)

James May on where to keep the car keys and his cat. Kitty kitty kitty. ;-)

The Vatican's astronomer ponders the problem of extraterrestrials and original sin, José Gabriel Funes, who describes the Bible as a "love letter" from God to His people, rather than a source of scientific fact. "Contemplare il cielo è per lui l'atto più autenticamente umano che si possa fare. Perché - spiega a L'Osservatore Romano - 'dilata il nostro cuore e ci aiuta a uscire dai tanti inferni che l’umanità si è creata sulla terra: le violenze, le guerre, le poverté, le oppressioni”." Very roughly: "To study the heavens is one of the most authentically human activities, expanding our hearts, helping us escape from the hells we've made on earth: violence, war, poverty, and oppression."

Meanwhile, the C of E hopes to use the religious themes and imagery of Doctor Who to attract young followers.

David Tennant praises his dad's knowhow, although admitting that Sandy McDonald could not "work out the quantity of dark matter in the universe on the back of a napkin". (I am convinced that Mr McDonald is in fact Torchwood Two and this is therefore a deliberate red herring.) I myself still seek advice on all matters practical from my mum and dad's accumulated wisdom.

Is this Wikipedia in Quechua?

lolworthy DS9 icons.

Moar Barrowman, this time unable to resist anyone's Knickerbocker Glory. Best bit's at the end where he tries to eat the one with the entire sponge roll on top.

Yep, that's Quechua. I tried out the handful of words I know and they were there. I can count to 99 and I know the word for 1,000. I've kept meaning to look up the word for 100 'cause I forgot it a long time ago. Now that I have it back, I can count to 999,999 (but I would probably need paper and pencil to work it out).

I can also say, "Channel 4 from Lima," a very useful phrase. :-)

In attempt to decipher this, I ended up here, amidst the Show of the Muppets and the Chapter of Spiderman.

"Channel four: rabbit-blanket situation."

you might want to put a warning on the 'queenie in trouble' clip...if anyone on your f'list has been sexually assaulted, then watching that could be a trigger. (seriously)

ditto for all the james may love, though. and good for him for putting the kibosh on his co-stars' macho posturing. if (gods forbid) there was a fire or something, it is indeed right and proper that along with the human faily members, clarkson and hammond would save the animal family members, and THEN go after saving crap like photo albums and stuff.
