The latest losses at chipmaker Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) were not as extensive as market expectations, thanks to surging sales of laptops.

They kidnapped him before they knew he was a doctor, and after they found out, had him operate using nothing but a pocketknife. The operation was successful and as a thank you, they let him go without taking any of his money.

Today, an 18-year-old kid started shooting at his High School at Jokela, Finland. There is no official statement about how many people died, but they say that there is more than 5 people killed and more shot at. One of those who were shot at was the principle of the school, but there is no words about his condition. The suspect has been taken into prison.
A couple of hours before the shooting happened, the shooter uploaded a video to YouTube titled "Jokela High School Massacre 11/07/2007". It seems he wanted to give out a warning. Unfortunately this video was found too late and it's now deleted from YouTube as well as his account is.
It seems this shooter was trying to fight to turn Finland into his dream society, where natural selection did all the job and people were animals. He also wanted that handicapped people can't have kids. So there was some Hitlerish ideas in his dream society.
Pretty sad. Maybe he took some action model from Virginia...

Umm... according to recent news on tv, 8 has been confirmed dead. 5 boys, 2 girls and the principal of the school, a middle aged woman. The shooter is not in prison, he is in a critical condition after shooting himself in the head and is being treated for that in E.R but his chances of surviving are estimated low.
This is just fucking terrible.

Well, when I read about it, those were the things they said.
After I read the blog the shooter had wrote, I realised he tried to kill himself too, so it's not really odd that his in a critical condition.
This really is terrible although I don't know anyone who would have been involved. This is just sad.

Yeah, and this is the biggest so far. It seems this guy who started shooting didn't like the current political situation. He would have wanted natural selection to do the job and everyone to get what they deserve. I have read he didn't really see killing people wrong. He got fed up living in a world we live in and decided to take more people with him, just to get his message out. He wanted people to belive in what he did and in this case, tried to do that in a stupid way. He wanted to die as a marthyr.
At least that's my take on this, based on the shooters blogs and other writings. Pretty sad in my opinion. I haven't really yet realised this has really happened here.

Fine, now they are posting threats on the internet about a second school shooting and one of them would happen in a school a few buildings away from where I work ;____; The grade school was evacuated immediately but nothing happened. Scary, nonetheless. I would have worried more if my brother went there but he is in another school.

That happened in Stockholm, Sweden too. Some teenagers threathened their principal after "getting fantasies from Jokela incident". Police got to know this and arrested two people. Thank god nothing worse happened.

This is one of the few times I'm actually proud to be a New Yorker. Now, all I need is $27,000 for it, taxes and leaving a tip. *starts planning bank heists*

I actually want to see him in person just so I can see how tall he is. I wonder if he has trouble going in and out of doorways.
