Climate Change and Tommy Cooper

I remember an old  Tommy Cooper gag that went something like this; I went to the doctor and said,  “Doctor, doctor.  It hurts when I do this”  (Cooper raises his knee upwards to demonstrate) The doctor said, “Well don’t do it, then“ The point is that it’s exactly like our prolific consumption of carbon-based fuels, [...]

Terror State Chickens Return to Phone Hacking Roost

Introduction Many years ago when I was living in France and during a prolonged period of French atomic weapon testing on the Moruroa atoll, the Greenpeace ship, Rainbow Warrior, was blown up in a New Zealand harbour.

Western Hypocrisy over Iran Elections

Everyone, it seems, both in the East and West, even China, is now aware of the huge forgery that gave last week’s Iranian election result to the cross-eyed one.

Admirable Courage by Our Young Folk

Watch the above video of part of the G20 protests.  At around 1:30, green jacketed police attack the crowd in a phalanx formation – a bit like an open-topped Roman testudo.  Flailing their batons, they press on down their own  protected right flank (by some container-type hoardings) into the crowd of protesters.

BBC and News Voyers Manipulate G20 Riot Picture

G20 Protest (riot?) My Riot Point. The picture above I first saw in a montage at the BBC website on a ‘as -it-happens’ sort of new item earlier today at work.  It’s very instructive, but to me it doesn’t look like a riot -  but more like 30 people taking pictures of someone breaking a [...]

George, 2nd Most Handsome Beardie in the South West

The self-named “forgotten middle child” Alice, has been a-busy a-brushin’ and a-washin’ the dog, George, this past year so much so that now he won a rosette for 2nd Most Handsome Dog! Apparently the dog didn’t even notice, the shaky video showing that his prime interest was the other dog’s bottoms. The show was notable [...]
