Gary McKinnon, the UFO spotter cum computer hacker is still not tried for his ‘offence’.  But the ice he’s treading is getting thinner and thinner. Recently our nice CPS deemed that there wasn’t enough UK evidence to try him – but that the USA had plenty so we’ll send him there! His charge, which I [...]

Gary Glitter, former prince of glam-rock; Paul Gadd, convicted paedophile.  They’re one and the same. Now wait, recent events around Gadd-Glitter remind me of happenings a long time ago in Ancient Egypt…. Most folk have heard of King Tutankhamun, the boy-king with the gold death mask. Not so many know that his (probable) dad was [...]

Some people have no shame! Bush chides Beijing over rights Bush, totally devoid of any self sense of irony is telling China how to do human rights. Just yesterday, Texas executed a murderer.  Jose Medellin didn’t deny the charge.  The point is that Texas, Bush’s home state, reckons it’s above the International Court of Justice [...]

Here’s something (link now dead – originally at http://72.232.216.38/manahmanah/44990/Nuclear_I_spit_on_you.html? ) I posted on an Australian blog that caught my eye. I just had to speak. Sorry. It’s about the various options for transport and other energy policies, paying special attention to Guy Negre’s air-powered car concept. This is the text as posted: The thing is [...]

Original sort of sound. I’d love to trace a copy of the BBC’s Purcell’s 400th anniversary concert which was done in St Paul’s with a load of dudes banging original drums and playing original 17th century brass whilst plodding round and round the cloisters. It ended up as the Theme from Stanley Kubrick’s film, Clockwork [...]
