Daily misery

What the hell did Adidas use to manufacture the current World Cup soccer ball that makes it goes like 200mph every times a player shoots? I mean seriously we are only a little over a week into the tournament and see how many long-range goals blazed through the nets already? Did they put in some sort of self-activated motion sensored nitro injection device into the ball or what? First we have Germany’s Thorsten Frings’s 35-yard screamer (also Lahm’s edge-of-the-box shot), Shunsuke Nakamura’s long-range floating shot, Rosicky’s 30 yard rocket and just today Pirlo (Italy) hit another 35 yarder against Ghana. When Roberto Carlos shoots with this ball, everyone should duck. No, I mean seriously, it might just as well kill a player instantly. At least when you try to improve the accuracy and speed of the ball, you should also try to come out with some sort of goalkeeping glove that can auto-expand its diameter or has a layer of glue on it to decrease the chances of a ball spilling incident. Where’s the fairness yo?

Police seized an array of bomb-making materials.. That’s the caption for the image used in the story covering the recent Canada’s terror raid. Ok, from what I can see in the picture, there’re flashlights, tapes, that metal thing you use when you try to steam your food, walkie-talkie, knife and etc. I have all of those in my apartment. Please don’t raid my apartment. None of my plastic bags are blue in color though. No wonder people don’t read news now days.

Update: Finally my rant is justified!
