US man loses $54m trousers claim

Source

Been reading about alot of crap rececently

• US man loses $54m trousers claim
• google may close gmail germany over privacy concerns google
  - Note crap about the german law more than google...
• http://xkcd.com/ - Its just not funny, it should be, maybe someone could explain it to me and it might be
• FBI to restrict student freedoms
• Mac Rumors - Just generaly a crap website full of crap about nothing
• Plastic bag revolt spreads across Britain - Just not news, everyone knows its a problem, no one gonna do anything about it anyway, simple, do what they do here, charge 50p a bag at the super market ;), still wouldnt solve the problem
• 'Has the vice president gone too far?' - Stupid question
• Viewing American class divisions through Facebook and MySpace
  - Id have thought this was obvious

Basicaly the lack of anything interesting to read, that i havnt won a game of settlers for about a month, and a few other things, im pretty miserable, on the other had i have nearly finished a new phoneybible, and im hoping to become rich, though in my current crap mood i dont expect anything

Behind the scenes of 'The War on Terror'

Source

It is seen by the Bush administration as a vital tool in the "war on terror". It is one that enables suspects who are not US citizens to be interrogated and held, indefinitely if necessary, in a US-controlled territory but not subject to normal US court rules.

In the news today a story from Guantanamo, a reminder that for about 400 people life in the prison camp goes on, without an hope of a fair trail or release.
Maybe its time that in a world of international police someone starts knocking on America's door. How is that America is allowed, even encouraged to kick the butt of terrorist nations, but no-one cares about the means, peoples fundamental human rights are being taken away in the name of The War on Terror.

100th Post

So this is the 100th post on my blog since i started it some time last year...
not got much else to say...
anybody following Mission Impossible should know that lots and lots of new things are being done over the next 50 days leading up to the project...lots of secrets...excitement...
the treasure is already buried so if your really keen you could go and look for it...its somewhere around...nearby...;-)
other than that...life is good...Alyona came around yesterday, with about 10 of her friend, was slightly bizzare...

was hoping to be able to go to siberia, but that is seeming less likey, at least i would need to do another, which seems like a lot of effort,is alot of money...so im thinking no...
also need to start plans for my sea trip...
was talking to mum on skype, she finaly, ive been here about 10 months, managed to do it...so cool, maybe we will do it again sometime...
finished watch green wing today...i love it, sanik doesnt get it at all which seems strange, its clearly more culturaly than i think...
what else...saw pirates of carabian 3, the (cherkasy) premier, last week...very cool...a nice evening...first time in the cinema here actually, its a nice place, nicer than most place's at home...unfortunatly the film was in ukrainian, a language im not so great at, but i watched it again in english today, was pretty much the same...less cool...kinda annoying, most of the films are in russian, and the one time i want to go its in ukrainian...ah well..
well thats life at the moment...going to mission impossible meeting tomorrow...always fun...cya

Scary People in Scary Places

Source

How does a guy like this get into/stay in any kind of power...
Some of his best lines

• "There needs to be leadership from the White House because some in Congress don’t understand the complexity of these issues." - now i dont know alot about america system of goverment, but how i understand people is that a big group who argue it out probably understand anything better than a man who stuggles to speak
• He notes that immigration has become a national security issue since 9/11 - how? wha? am i missing something, or is this guy trying jump onto the 'scarying people into voting for you' band wagon
• "We need a league of democracies to act against Iran" - sounds good, but wait...adding that we should impose our own sanctions against Iranians outside of the U.N. - but when the league of democracies does agree without just ignore it?
• "Our oil supply is in danger"
• This is my personal...well the worst, most...unbelievable, when asked if he believes people deserve the right to habeas corpus - "Yes. But only Americans, not military combatants" - who votes for this guy?

Admision of crapness

Source

After years of them saying it was perfect...and everyone else saying it sucked, now they finaly admit it, windows xp is rubbish...of course, dont believe everything they say, i dont think vista has fixed all the problems, and of course there are all the problems they didnt have time to fix, and so just arnt mentioned...

Just for reference

Source

An interesting list, noted that its based on the regiems of hitler, mussolini etc...interesting how many parral's can be draw to modern day england, america, maybe others...(for the last point see here)
I look and imediatly start thinking ooo...but then, im not sure how much of that is new, or has always been, certainly the first few points...about goverment using fear to justify things that normaly would be unaceptable...removing human rights because 'we need to protect against...', 'they could, possibly, maybe, bombs, wmd's, terroists...'. is

but then what can we do about? maybe they are right? clearly lots of people think like that cause surely otherwise they wouldnt be in power, or maybe i should take this kind of report more seriously?

Coolest Haircut

most bizzare place to get haircut...

btw, ukrtelecom...ur internet is very slow today...but it might be cause i finished the first season of green wing this morning...

Iran...and all the surrounding rubbish...

Source

This report and others like it are kinda interesting...
I think on one level i agree that iran gettting nuclear weapons is bad...but at the same time have this constant annoyance, that 'we', america, the uk, and many other nation's also have nuclear weapons, that it is compleatly hipocritical for us to be so agaisnt iran's aquisition of nuc's. But also i do wonder about iran's intentions, why, in a world that has mostly moved past the nuc, do they feel the need if they dont have some reason. Surely they know the massive problems they will have if they just want them for the sake of having them, and being an 'equal' with the west.
So i wonder what others think? should we continue to be hipocrits, or should we try to stop Iran, with quite probably bad intentions, from achieving the power gained from having the threat, which will be taken much more seriously than that of the uk, us, and russia's

Ukrainian Campaining

Source

I was talking to a friend of mine yesterday, she had just come back from Kiev where she had been at the lasted protest's...but the funny thing is that she says she doesnt support the issue, but was paid 80grn per day to go. She says the majority of people there are like her, just going for the money...sure there is someone who supports it, and when there are lots of people there many are genuine, but this just give you an idea of what is really behind street protests and people camping out in Kyiv...
