A Maine man is facing charges after he was accused of holding a woman against her will, forcing her into a marriage and hurting her in a “satanic ritual,” reports and court documents say.

Police in Newington, New Hampshire, arrested 47-year-old Daniel Ouellet at an Olive Garden on Sunday after a mother contacted Pennsylvania State Police about tracking her daughter's phone to the location

Court documents say officers saw cigarette burns on a woman’s legs after she ran from the restaurant, asking for an emergency restraining order against Ouellet, WMUR reported. 

The court documents also allege officers found a Satanic bible, sweatshirt and bag in Ouellet’s car. 

Ouellet is accused of having a gun and forcing the woman to marry him, pointing a gun at her while she was driving and saying a religious cult was following them, and cutting her hand for a satanic ritual in Kittery, Maine, according to CNN. 

“If you talk to anybody that knows me, I'm not a physical man,” Ouellet said in court Monday. “Forcing her into marriage, that's completely against my religious belief, I totally believe in free will.”

Right ..

So...

The company’s BrainEx platform takes donated human brains shortly after death and connects them to a life-support system that circulates oxygen and nutrients through the brain. The brains show no signs of consciousness and are kept under anesthesia to suppress electrical activity, but a lot of their basic cellular and metabolic functions are still going on, and all for roughly 24 hours, giving the researchers just enough time to observe how experimental drugs affect the brain. After those 24 hours, the brains were dissected and analyzed.

Apparently Billy Joel has thought a lot about WE DIDN'T START THE FIRE and really isn't sure if he likes it..

From the Far Out Magazine article by Tom Taylor:

Serving as a paradigm to this puzzle is his biggest single, ‘We Didn’t Start the Fire’. It is as vilified as it is timeless. Joel, once again, pitches himself between those two poles. But he shouldn’t. It is a masterpiece of the highest order. In the song, he charts his way through history in an abridged manner that condenses knowledge like microchip science.  He weaves his way through manic modern history to arrive at the message that society is simply predisposed to unruly chaos. He pairs this in a postmodern fashion with a maelstrom of synth-driven music to add to the feeling of society’s unstoppable combustion. With a ceaseless tempo, it races into the future, screaming “trouble in the Sueeeeeeeez!” (Only with more eees than our copy editor would allow me). However, it is the inherent contemporary cheesiness of this music that Joel feels hamstrings the clever thesis of the track. Speaking about the much-maligned masterpiece on We Didn’t Start the Fire: The History Podcast, Joel said of his 1989 single, “The only thing I’ve heard about that song from people is, ‘I hate song!’ Some people hate that song.”  He continued, “It’s one of the most hated things I ever wrote! And I don’t get the hate.” However, even Joel, in his mild defence, admitted that he is ambivalent towards it, musing that it is clever, catchy, and affecting, but he just wishes it was cooler. Many have had similar thoughts in a more generalised sense. Especially when faced with Joel’s sunglasses choice in the video.
