Ian 'H' Watkins 'angry and upset' at Google News results

Quote:
Lawyers for Steps singer Ian "H" Watkins have approached Google after his image appeared next to stories about convicted paedophile Ian Watkins. The "furious" singer's management said lawyers were "taking immediate steps to urgently rectify the position". He was said to be "astonished" that his photo was still being linked to "the appalling crimes of the Lostprophets singer".

Google said it was looking into "layout" issues with its pages.

AC/DC's Highway to Hell: the sound of Christmas?

http://www.theguardian.com/music/musicb ... -christmas

Those UK AC/DC stats are shocking :shock:

Mind you, even Queen weren't quite the UK powerhouse you'd expect in terms of singles.

Rock and metal fans are much more album-oriented than pop fans. As far as I remember, AC/DC didn't put too much emphasis on B-sides anyway. Occasionally a live track but they didn't do what, say, Iron Maiden did and record a new track specifically for the single or its B-side.

Yeah, they've always been about the albums right enough, but even so :(

Put bootcamp and Win 8.1 on the Mac. Not only does it look lovely on the iMac monitor but so far I actually quite like it.

Yep, Windows has always run well on a Mac, on my old iMac, it runs better than OS X! :?

I found it entirely strange that I could post on here earlier today without having updated my password, and yet now it has a hissy fit. :roll:

Dunno if it's the same thing but my screen juddered earlier during a refresh (sh1tty browser/phone), which usually signifies that I've been signed out unwillingly, but apparently not in this case :?

Dunno. I recently updated my password on the netbook because I couldn't remember the log in. When to work today and managed to post without having to update my password or anything. Later, it threw a hissy fit and logged me out so I had to log in with the new password which firefox then updated.
