Jonathan Teplitzky's semi-autobiographical drama Burning Man is released in Australian cinemas today. The film follows British chef, Tom (Matthew Goode), as he struggles to keep himself together in the wake of tragic events which aren't entirely clear from the start of the film, but are gradually revealed over the unfolding, disjointed narrative. With an 8-year-old son, Oscar (Jack Heanly), relying on him in the midst of a whirlwind lifestyle of food, sex and death, Tom's out-of-control behaviour results in some startling revelations about grief, the process of healing and what it takes to move on. SnarkHunters sat down to chat with Teplitzky about making sense of the chaos in Tom's life, while getting some good dish on behind-the-scenes restaurant behaviour and how closely Tom's path mirrors his own.

This might all be a hoax or a joke but there is info doing the rounds about a new iPad competitor about to launch.
I have some scepticism because the company calls itself Neofonie (neo phony anyone?) and the name of the new pad? wePad. Not iPad.
I'm sure Apple won't take that name lying down. Actually I'm not sure Nintendo and their wii will take it either.
Anyway you can find out more about the specs and capabilities etc on this site (which is eerily similarly named to ours - though we won't care).

Usually when we post something in Random Awesomeness it doesn't make the front page ... however, we've got a few babies being born in the snarkworld. One would be an anomaly however it's now a trend and I think we need to put out a public service announcement, just to make sure you know what is causing this epidemic of babies being born.

Dear Mr. Prime Minister,
For as long as time – the markets have been driven by “consumers” people like me and you and our parents: we spend the money that we want to spend on things that we want to have etc……
So rather than give billions to bail out greedy financiers, the unemployed and people already earning wages how about encouraging a scheme that could solve a lot of underlying socio-economic problems and call it a "Patriotic Retirement":
