[NYPOST] A British serial killer notorious for his eating habits is refusing to chow down after guards at the prison holding him took away his TV and PlayStation. "I ain't eatin' nobody else 'til I gets me Playstation back!"
Robert ''Hannibal the Cannibal'' Maudsley, 71, is incensed by the loss of his gaming system, his brother, Paul, told The Sun.
He said Maudsley has turned away meals and will not ingest anything until his prized electronics are returned. "Hokay. It'll make it easier to carry your dry desiccated husk to the dumpster"
Also known as ''The Brain Eater,'' Maudsley lives alone in a glass cell inside Wakefield prison in West Yorkshire.
He is also miffed guards took his non-fiction books and a music system he had on Feb. 26.
''Bob is held inside a prison within the prison,'' Paul Maudsley told The Mirror. ''Bob complained and he's normally polite, but the prison officers accused him of being abusive. When he finally got back in his cell, they had taken everything — his TV, PlayStation, books and radio.
''He's back to how he was 10 years ago, when he didn't have anything to stimulate him and he would just sit there and vegetate and was in danger of going mad. He loves playing war games and chess on his PlayStation and he's always watching old films on TV and reading factual books.''
It is said he ate part of one of victim's brains.
Paul Maudsley said he's worried how long his brother ''will be able to survive without food.'' Quite drinking fluids and it'll all be over quicker
Robert Maudsley is believed to be the longest-serving inmate in England, having spent 49 years behind bars.

[Gateway] It’s the feature of our days that the Intelligence services from powerful nations, be it the CIA, MI6 or Mossad, have much more public exposure than in the old days of the Cold War.
With the Russian SVR, heir to the famed — and infamous — KGB, it’s no different. Today (10), the foreign intelligence agency stepped up Moscow’s criticism of the British government, stating that London sees Russian-U.S. dialogue on Ukraine ’as a threat to its interests’.
The UK is the main ’instigator’ of the global conflict, according to the SVR.
This comes in the same day as Russia expels two British diplomats accused of being involved in espionage.
[YahooFinance] The Panama Canal is exploring the construction of a pipeline to move liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) across the trade passage,
…why liquified petroleum gas instead of liquified natural gas?
canal administrator Ricuarte Vasquez said on Monday, with Japan seen as a top potential client for gas coming from the U.S. Could help with capacity constraints on the canal. Benefit would be to, among others, US natural gas producers as production is already constrained by demand. Construction could be financed by bonds; probably would cost $5-10 B.

I recall the new model Container Ships, including for LPG and LNG models, are super massive. I recall there was talk about expanding some of ports a few years back to accommodate these larger ships. A pipeline through the canal might be more ideal than expanding canal infrastructure to handle these larger ships.

In WW2 there was a fuel pipeline across Panama , saving the shipping time. That right of way may still exist. For anyone interested in rain forests/ birdwatching etc, the Pipeline Road is recommended. You can be looking into the forest and the upper part of a cargo ship goes through it - surreal.

[Regnum] At least 32 people were injured as a result of a collision between a tanker and a cargo ship in the North Sea, Sky News reported on March 10.
According to these data, the crew members of both ships were brought to the nearest port on three boats. The health condition of the victims is not reported.
The tanker was at anchor when the container ship crashed into it, the authors also noted.
Earlier it was reported that the Stena, operated by the American company Crowley, collided with another ship off the north-east coast of England. Both vessels caught fire.
As reported by the Regnum news agency, on March 7, Turkish media reported that a tanker and a container ship collided in the Sea of Marmara off the coast of Istanbul. The incident occurred 9 km from the shore. As a result of the collision, the tanker's ballast tank burst, and contaminated water spilled into the sea. The coast guard arrived at the scene to eliminate the consequences of the emergency. According to preliminary data, no one was injured in the collision.
In February, the tanker Natig Aliyev and the dry cargo ship Begonia got stuck side by side in the port of Novorossiysk. The ships were at anchor, but due to a storm and an untimely engine start, Natig Aliyev drifted and fell into the Begonia. It was reported that the ships did not suffer any serious damage, and no environmental damage was recorded.

One maritime collision a mistake, twice a coincidence?? or is it??
He [Musk] continued, “I think, one of the biggest sources of fraud in the world, is government-funded non-governmental organizations. This is a gigantic fraud loophole where the government can give money to an NGO, and then there are no controls over that NGO.”
Should not have been on the public dole to begin with.

[FoxNews] DOGE says that federal agencies spent $40 billion using credit cards in FY24
The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) announced that it has deactivated more than 200,000 credit cards linked to more than a dozen federal agencies following an audit showing they were unused or unneeded.
The announcement comes as the Elon Musk-led agency continues to root out waste, fraud and corruption in the federal government.
"Weekly Credit Card Update! Pilot program with 16 agencies to audit unused/unneeded credit cards," DOGE wrote on its X account.
"After 3 weeks, >200,000 cards have been de-activated. Great progress this past week by @HHSGov [U.S. Department of Health and Human Services] @Interior [U.S. Department of the Interior]."
The agency said that at the start of the audit, there were more than 4.6 million active cards/accounts throughout those agencies.
"So still more work to do," the DOGE team wrote.
It is unclear how much money the taxpayer will save following the cancelations. Last month, DOGE said the 4.6 million credit cards were used for 90 million unique transactions, totaling around $40 billion worth of spending in FY24.
In total, 204,801 credit cards have been canceled, consisting of 171,120 travel cards and 33,681 purchase cards.
The agencies which have had credit cards canceled include the General Services Administration (GSA), the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), the Labor Department, the Small Business Administration (SBA), the Education Department, the Interior Department, the Treasury Department, the Commerce Department, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the Agriculture Department (USDA), NASA, Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Homeland Security, Social Security Department and the Department of Housing and Urban Development.
The Interior Department saw the largest number of credit card terminations with nearly 20,000 purchase cards and nearly 40,000 travel cards canceled. HHS was second with more than 43,700 travel credit cards and 2,235 purchase cards canceled.
The State Department is the only agency of the 16 which didn’t have any credit cards canceled.
Last month, Musk spoke at President Donald Trump’s first Cabinet meeting and said he is looking to find $1 trillion in savings through DOGE to help slash the national debt, which is around $36.5 trillion.
Musk took aim at what he described as $2 trillion in deficits, stating that America "simply cannot sustain" that amount of debt
"If this continues, the country will go, become de facto bankrupt," Musk claimed.
