QuoteOriginally posted by: daveangelJeremy Clarkson joins the Guardian's fossil fuel divestment driveI believe JC has a house near the lighthouse in the south of Manx (near the financial centre of Castletown). He wanted to cordon off the area but council said no. Rumour has it he got a cook friend to write about the quality of the Manx cuisine.

Major breakthrough in negotiations with Iran over nuclear ambitions. 4/1/2015In a startling development, Iran's Foreign Minister Zarif at talks in Lausanne announcedhis country would concede they were planning on developing an atomic weapon."Of course we were", he said in extended remarks to reporters -- "what else do you think wewere doing with all those centrifuges -- our laundry?"U.S. Secretary of State Kerry, in his own remarks, said "Well, now we're getting somewhere!"
