Pizza chain offers $31,000/hour part-time job
TOKYO (Reuters) - Take-out pizza chain hiring. Aged over 18, no experience required. Uniform provided. Salary: $31,000 an hour.
As part of a series of events commemorating the 25th anniversary of its arrival in Japan, Domino's Pizza Japan is set to hire one lucky person at the rate of 2,500,000 yen ($31,030) for an hour's worth of work in December.
A company spokesman declined to provide further details until November 10, but the company's website said that anyone who wants the job will need to file an application. Those passing to the next stage will undergo an interview.
"Basically it's anybody over 18, no questions about education or experience," the spokesman said. "We're actually a little surprised by how much of a response it's getting."
Hourly pay for part-time jobs in Japan averages just under 1,000 yen ($12.41).
Many of the comments on a Japanese article about the offer noted that the salary was cheap for the probable advertising impact and that there might be better uses for the money, such as raising workers' pay overall.
"If I got this, I couldn't work for being afraid of what the people around me were thinking," one wrote.
In another of the promotions, anyone born on September 30 this year -- the actual date the first Domino's opened in Japan -- will receive a free pizza on their birthday until they turn 25.

Vatican Confesses: Jesus Story "An Exaggeration" Based On Roman Prince

Articles: Vatican Confesses: Jesus Story "An Exaggeration" Based On Roman Prince
Submitted by susanmaureenbrandt on Oct 31, 2010 - 11:59 PM
The Vatican has released evidence proving that Jesus Christ was an "exaggerated and mythologized" version of Lucius Caesar, with key dates and details in the life of the Roman prince altered to hide his role in the early Christian Church.
Original documents which have been carbon dated to 50 years before
the birth of Christ show that Lucius Caesar was the youngest of two
sons Julius Caesar secretly produced with his own daughter, Julia, and used to begin the process of "Christianizing" Europe.
Hoping to infiltrate the Jewish and British cultures with clever
impostors, Vatican records detail the lengths Gaius Julius Caesar II
went to in order to secure a greater tax base for the expanding empire.
While his father, Gaius Julius Caesar I was opposed to creating a false
religion to replace Roman tradition, Julius actively employed Lucius,
his older brother Gaius Julius Caesar III, and his daughter, referred
to as Servilius, to execute the plan.
As popularity for violent Roman rule was waning, and territories
were increasingly difficult to police, the ambitious ruler had his
three children trained in foreign cultures and languages, assassination
techniques, and methods of disguise, which are not only documented but
fully illustrated in numerous texts.
Religion had been used
successfully for passive population control throughout India and Asia
for hundreds of years, and Julius wrote about the possibility of using
it to subdue the powerful indigenous people of Northwestern Europe and
Northern Africa in letters currently housed in Vatican archives.
Lucius and his brother were sent to India as young men, around
the time Roman records, referring to them as the adopted sons of
Augustus Caesar, claim them to have died in battle. As has been rumored
about Jesus, they learned Buddhist principles of non-violence and
egoless inner transformation to appeal to Jews tired of excessive
demands to perform blood-filled sacrifice rituals, and follow hundreds
of meaningless and time-consuming rules, an invention of the Caesar
family's ancestors 600 years before in Babylon to enslave the
spiritual-minded Israelites with the "invisible chains" of oppressive
monotheism.
When this attempt ended in the Jews' demand for Lucius' crucifixion
over the issue of accepting Roman taxation, Roman officials removed him
from the cross prematurely and, after a brief period of recovery,
transported him to Britain, where his brother was already posing as
King Casswellaunus while guarding their mother according to Julius'
demand that she not be allowed to produce additional heirs.
The events that followed, including Caesar's trip to Britain in
55 BC when he murdered his son Gaius as Lucius and Julia fled to France
to conceal their soon-to-born child, Julia's murder by Julius after
returning to Rome into a marriage with Gaius Sr., and the resulting
assassination of Julius Caesar by a group with Lucius, or "Brutus" (the
British), at their helm in 44 BC, are not only well-documented, but
secretly form the basis for much of modern dramatic storytelling.
The Vatican admits the scam "will take a great toll on public
faith and well-being in the transitional phase that is sure to come, as
devout Christians adjust to seeing religion as a personal expression
rather than an institutionalized set of beliefs with allegorical
figureheads."
However, they claim that as 2012 approaches, it is time to "set
aside the complicated crimes of our human past, and move forward into a
new, more honest era," an opinion in line with ancient beliefs held by
the Romans of the power of astrology and soothsaying in correlation to
astronomical events.
While the emotional and spiritual costs of the shocking
announcement are virtually unfathomable, the immediate financial
implications are clear. The entire corporate body of the Catholic
Church, and of the Vatican State itself, face an immediate "closing of
shop" to halt the possibility of lawsuits by outraged followers.
A source inside the Vatican claims that the truth about Christianity's
unseemly origins have always been known by the pope and other
high-ranking figures, but that a philosophy of "encouraging a climate
of generous love" developed with the hope of avoiding prosecution.

the Catholic Church under greater attack than ever for allowing the
Roman practice of child sexual training to continue, Vatican officials
seem ready to confess their greatest lie.

Death toll rises to 58 in Iraq church standoff
Baghdad, Iraq (CNN) -- The death toll from a hostage standoff at a Catholic church in Baghdad has risen to 58, police officials with the Iraqi Interior Ministry said Monday.
Seventy-five others were wounded in the attack by gunmen Sunday, the officials said, adding that most of the casualties were women and children. Two priests were among the dead, as well as 17 security officers and five of the gunmen.
The hours-long standoff ended Sunday after Iraqi security forces stormed the Sayidat al-Nejat church.
Eight suspects were arrested.

"All the marks point out that this incident carries the fingerprints of al Qaeda," Iraqi Defense Minister Abdul Qader Obeidi said on state television Sunday.
He said that most of the hostages were killed or wounded when the kidnappers set off explosives inside the church.
On Monday, the Iraqi Communication and Media Commission accused al-Baghdadiya television of having a link to the church kidnappers and ordered the station to close, state television reported. Iraqi security forces surrounded the bureau of al-Baghdadiya TV in Baghdad.
Two of the station's employees were detained, according to a statement posted on the al-Baghdadiya TV website. It said the two employees had received a call from the church kidnappers demanding the release of female prisoners in Egypt in return for the hostages' freedom. The demand was later broadcast on al-Baghdadiya TV.
The station, which which is an Iraqi-owned, Egypt-based network, subsequently reported that its employees had been released.
At least two of the attackers were wearing explosive vests, which they detonated just minutes before security forces raided the church, the police officials said.
The Islamic State of Iraq later claimed responsibility for the attack through a statement posted on a radical Islamic website. The umbrella group includes a number of Sunni extremist organizations and has ties to al Qaeda in Iraq.
"The Mujahedeens raided a filthy nest of the nests of polytheism, which has been long taken by the Christians of Iraq as a headquarter for a war against the religion of Islam and they were able by the grace of God and His glory to capture those were gathered in and to take full control of all its entrances," the group said on the website.
Pope Benedict XVI said Monday that he was praying "for the victims of this absurd violence -- all the more ferocious in that it hit defenseless people gathered in the house of the Lord, which is home to reconciliation and love."
Survivors of the ordeal said they were about to begin Sunday night services when the gunmen entered the church, according to Martin Chulov, a journalist for the U.K.-based Guardian newspaper who was on the scene. A priest ushered the congregants into a back room, Chulov reported survivors said.
At one point, one of the gunmen entered the room and threw an unidentified explosive device inside, causing casualties, Chulov said.
A U.S. military spokesman, Lt. Col. Eric Bloom, said that as many as 120 people were taken hostage.
The gunmen seized the hostages after attacking the Baghdad Stock Market in the central part of the Iraqi capital earlier Sunday, police said. Four armed men entered the nearby Sayidat al-Nejat church after clashing with Iraqi security forces trying to repel the stock market attack.
Iraq's interior ministry said gunmen attacked the stock market to distract Iraqi security forces who were outside the church to protect it.
The gunmen were demanding that the Iraqi government release a number of detainees and prisoners in Iraqi prisons, saying the Christian hostages would be freed in return, according to the police officials. Iraq's defense minister later said on state television that the kidnappers had demanded the release of a number of prisoners in both Iraq and Egypt.
Iraqi security forces sealed off the area surrounding the church, the officials said, and buildings were evacuated of civilians as a precautionary measure. At least 13 hostages, including two children, managed to escape ahead of the rescue operation, police said.
The Iraqi authorities ordered the attackers to release the hostages and to turn themselves in, warning that they would storm the church if they do not comply. A few hours passed quietly as military units took up positions outside the church, including several American units, Chulov said.
"Then all hell broke loose," he said. A firefight erupted, and Chulov said he heard three or four large explosions. Later, he saw about 20 ambulances race away from the scene.
The American military spokesman minimized the role U.S. troops played in the operation.
"The U.S. only provided UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle) support with video imagery. As always, we have advisers with the ISF (Iraqi security forces) command teams," Bloom said.
Although the U.S. combat mission in Iraq officially ended this year, about 50,000 American troops are expected to remain in the country until the end of 2011 to train, assist and advise Iraqi troops.
