The terror dam of doom that looms over Boise, Idaho

Hmmm

Hmmm , any normal cynic would say to cure this kind of stupidity and insanity of the most implausible/improbable kind , is a daily dose of the grand Insurance Pre-Paid Funeral Plan Ad for a dollar a day , followed up by regular reading of the preventable deaths that most Western Democratic Health Departments and including the World Health Organisation love to shout from the rooftops in order to show how great a service they are . Strangely death at the hands of a terrorist is well and truly below their normal Radar Horizon !

Only for the morbid they can try this link http://www.hammeruncut.com/realtime-death-toll-counter/

To me it sounds like some agents in a nameless bureau notorious for terrorising peace trendies in the land of the new paranoid empire post 2001 with an imaginary bill of rights and false illusion of democracy and freedom due west across the Atlantic Ocean to Portugal are trying flee their unkind fate of the mediocre mindless planks of too stupid to go forward and too dumb to let go and learn from the past to live out their lonely lives in all the one horse border dead holes like El Paso or other god forsaken pimples that blight their landscape !

Ah man's mortality what a killer , but not a terrorist above or below the horizon called mortality either !

Or how some prefer

Or how some like Saatmarket with coloured beliefs prefer to very conveniently overlook and put their heads in the sand the many big and continuing very questionable and some rather illegal doings this CO$ organisation has been up to from the first day of foundation , by a failed penny dreadful SF writer at the instigation another that fateful day in 1948 or so we have been told and his continuation man's abuse of the laws against those who expose the truth of that he prefers the world not to see beyond that which is acceptable in any normal society !

Atom-based Eee PC to hit UK in June

Nice

So nice to see she is back.

Perhaps we tend to forget each particular Eee PC , will fill it's own niche and the clones from Dell/HP all tend to have a larger screen much the same size as in the light weight very portable Toshiba Portege 3XXX P2/P3 powered series sold at the end of last century .

Although the last units did have an excellent idea of an additional clip on flat second larger battery pack which almost tripled it's portable on time away from the nearest power point (perhaps if ASUS incorporated that flat second battery pack idea in the Atom model option list it would blow away the opposition and leave them in the dust too ).

Interestingly , what intrigues me that is some older last century designs from Toshiba , have now been reborn again in the last half of the first decade in the new century !

Now , if the either the seven or nine inch Eee PC had a factory fitted touch screen and a long life clip on second flat battery pack integrated , who indeed would not want one and leave the larger heavier power hungry short life units at work or home ?

Love the fire breathing El Reg bird , any one for toast ?

I wouldn't park there, mate - Honda adds sat nav warnings

@ralph

@ralph , surely you jest , for whilst Honda are a reliable car they are not cheap to fix when major ticket items like gear boxes die , the fact is that whilst a majority of owners tend to look after these cars and usually drive carefully , the reason being exterior body panels and interior fittings not in common use in the rest of the herd tend to be extremely rare and mostly out of stock at the dealers after two short years after end of production run ! Further the pricing of Honda spares and model uniqueness tend to make the German Porsche look cheap in comparison . Guess which car is cheaper to service , is it the top of the line mid engine Porsche Boxter or a Honda S2000 sports car which costs half as much as the sporting faster German toy and the answer is not the Honda by the way ! In thirty years time one would be pushing to locate the few surviving Honda S2000's but will find a lot more Porsche Boxter's of same age and vintage still fully mobile though !

Honda's are easily stolen to order by the five finger repair mobs for mobile replacement parts not available either second hand or new at dealers , as the company insecurity systems fitted at the factory are basically a very bad joke at the best of times , hence the reason why it routinely tops the stolen non recovered car list .

Down under in Oz Honda sold something like almost a million generation one Civic models in about eight odd years of it's production life , Leyland took about twenty eight years to sell about a million older Mini's to end of model run . Curiously twenty five years on , one can see about one hundred well kept and maintained surviving Mini's driving down the same road to one generation one Civic , so which indeed was more reliable and longer lived again ?

Propaganda or not

The reality is the coalition forces in Iraq from the very first time in 2001 , when the invasion and takeover was first mooted by the moron in the Oval Office to finish what his father had first started in 1990 in more ways then one !

The entire campaign from that fateful day in January 2001 when the moron and his merry group of repuke pigs assumed the mantle of deliberately leading the US to disaster both financially and militarily 1812 style and in the in the interim lost all grasp to any form reality , as he and his associated pigs were far to busy literally and figuratively looting the treasury of everything not bolted to the floor !

In the interim , he persuaded Blighty leader Tony B Liar and Little Johnny the forgotten one of Oz and the Canuk Tool to follow him blindly like a bunch of headless chickens in all his silly empire building programs , the Wily French leader reading between the lines saw what was coming and chose not to play as they were far too busy elsewhere !

This lack of dynamic leadership skills by the moron from the Oval Office is directly reflected by all headless up my back end political senior appointees in the US military machine of do evil war crimes but neither hear it or see it at the same time Vietnam style(thank one Colin P the man who told big porkies at the UN in 2003 for that one) !

Thus directly leading to the numerous dumb and stupid problems we see today in Iraq perpetrated from 2003 onwards ! The moron wanted and was given grandiose propaganda war we had last seen in the late 30's Spanish Civil War Goebbels News Reels (General Franco could not participate in WW2 as he was far too busy putting his civil war torn shattered country back together for the next decade or so , for such was the magnitude of internal destruction done to the infrastructure )

The problem , gee we Dumb and Stupid Yankees won quickly , got their Faux Propaganda shock and awe made for TV war, but in the process totally destroyed the entire local civilian but not military infrastructure and rebuilt it in our own flawed image using quislings and convicted bank thieves to head up the country , whilst looting all portable historical artifacts and directly stealing at least 65% of the UN food for oil monies in their back pockets at the same time !

Fast forward to the river incident , the UK/US military had been exposed to assorted mayhem and deliberate murder attacks against innocent civilians by poorly lead troops seeking avenge fellow soldiers killed by indiscriminate IED's and the great tip of the iceberg Abu Ghraib prisoner abuse scandal and the world wide scandal of rendition of innocent people sent to foreign countries like Syria , Egypt , Ethiopia and many other closed countries to be tortured !

In the interim in the UK Tony B Liar and all his fellow Labor Party Wowsers and self flagellating wankers , after ignoring the ever getting bigger anti war crowds who said no in the first place and still using the same peace time reduced budget to fund his stupid overseas fool hardy pointless no win war ventures , the wily Iranians saw an opening to stage a great world one up yours , knowing full well even if the Navy was in the right and on the right side of the border the public with it's "You have fooled me often since 2001 with much false propaganda , I don't believe the authorities are ever again capable of telling the real truth again attitude , for you have told me only one lie after another since 2001" . Thus when MOD and the UK navy(which had already been involved in assorted exposed lies in the recent past) claimed they were not in the wrong but on the right side of the river nobody in the general public at large was ever going to believe that they were for once telling the truth and thus presumed to assume it was just another big propaganda lie to save their collective asses from the wrath of the public backlash that came forth .

The irony of it all, was for this incident was the past long history of MOD telling lies and other denials or indecent cover ups post WW2/Cold(hot tit for tat) War came back to haunt them very badly indeed , that was what the Iranians were using against all these wowsers and wankers at MOD to win one more round in the endless daily propaganda from the world mass media press from January 1st 2001 and still going strong !

Choices , whatever however MOD says it is it the truth ?

Pirate Bay to sue music industry

heystoopid
Pirate

Hmmm

@anon , thank you , you made my day !, but as always technology cannot make up for either the lack of talent or the lack of usable content in any form , and what we are hearing from the older music is closer to what one would have heard in a live concert of the time. The continuing fall and crap sales of the modern music genre is basically a reflection of the times selling to diverse sophisticated audience whose spending money is limited to cherry picking and then buying only the best of the best in the music noise department and attending live concerts of their favorite musicians. In addition they must support other forms of video entertainment(PC computer and console game boxes) with their limited finances and numbers(view western population demographics by country and you will see why the big four labels have lost the plot big time as to why they have failed in the new centuries market and will always fail as they know not what they are doing and the companies are run by bean counters who can only ever count beans no more no less) !

@BKB surely you jest as you have fallen for the propaganda ploy , and your argument has one very fatal flaw , in that human culture is dynamic and not static and thus unlike the absolute static copyright because it is fixed in the time it was issued moves on with each succeeding change in technology ! The average current note book user has more power at their finger tips then the original computer engineers could conceive in 1948!

Imagine if todays power users caught up in copyright restrictions must hard code their instructions as of old prior to running any program , it would be quicker to use an abacus !

As for software piracy the volumes and levels claimed are totally fictional and fail even basic occam's razor tests at every level from the ground up !

In 2000 Shawn Fanning hit the nail on the head , and produced solid figures as to the correlation between the popular tracks shared and existing CD sales of the same item , as for the industry which has seen sales decline by a massive two thirds in seven years as they switched targeted audience to the next generation which is numerically smaller then the preceding in numbers and far more diverse interests (Film industry has recorded similar rapid growth rates in DVD sales at the same time as the baby boomers reorganized their spending priorities) !

Choices today we stand poised with the next generation of powerful fully portable multi processors that can mash any combination of music style genre with additional video information that is only limited to the imagination of the users in real time or better . So if we lock up all information music video and pictures in perpetuity of copyright unable to change or alter it in anyway ? , what then will happen to human creativity stagnate at bottom of a putrid pond !

The industry can turn around and say piracy is killing us without showing any proof that it really is , where as in reality they fired both barrels at the new target audience and missing them at the same time whilst ignoring those who had in fact supported them very profitably indeed through three changes in technology in as many decades , little wonder the boomers have moved on , and the bean counters at the companies in question are continuing to fight the losing battle of the law of diminishing returns !

Copyright is and should exist for a term of not exceeding 15 years maximum , for that is when the next generation arrives to take over the reigns and chose their own direction as they see fit !

Just goes to show

Just goes to show the old story , those that fail to consider all the facts and laws of other lands like IFPI before leaping into the abyss are just another generation of idiots without a basic functional brain cell to call their own and would rather blame others for their own inherent and basic inbuilt stupidity !

The other day in Oz , I saw an interesting comment about sales of music albums in the daily Murdoch propaganda sheet(when you see the front page fairy headlines they print you know why) the current number one by K D Lang sold at all retail stores across the land a mere 4914 copies in one week , two years previously Black Eyed Peas shifted 4800 in a week , however a compilation of past assorted number ones CD "So Fresh" shifted 23,465 copies in the same period ! It goes to show even in down under Oz when the new music sucks and it is on the nose the punters refuse to buy the dog and cat whippings they call new music in droves ! I really do not blame the discerning intertubes user from trying to find something in the daily big four labels music of noise and torture to find something worth listening too that is not s****** on you like a shag in a tree at the same time !

Oh well back to listening to Count Basie Jazz music for some relief , as most of what is released today by the major labels is pure evil torture and renders one's ears in pain to listening to the cat or dog being whipped with these discordant tones they call modern singing !

Perhaps

Perhaps these idiots and incompetent senior officers who run this centre should read up on a few old SAC classified reports on aircrew fatigue commissioned not long after the Palomares mid air collision and Thule Air Base incidents way back in the sixties , it will give them the correct direction to look for a cure !

There is a cure , but sadly it is well beyond the lateral thinking of idiots programmed to think literally by the book to treat all staff as robots to maximise man hours and minimise staff in all business mismanagement courses at all advanced seats of learning(students are either to stupid and swallow this brainwashing B***s***, forget or are not allowed to ask the cutting question "why are you teaching this B***s*** when you could be earning far more in the commercial world then a teachers pathetic income ? And the answer is obvious because it is basically s*** and does not work in the real world !)"

Unfortunately the fatigue syndrome that they suffer from appears to be not all that different to that which a majority of call centre workers for Banks and most other institutions must endure on a regular daily basis too !

Those that fail to learn the lessons in history are but doomed to repeat the same failures in an endless stupid circle for eternity !

@jonb

@jonb , sadly you really do not know much about Ethiopia and it's long history do you , for it has been at war with it's neighbours and fighting over resources for almost as long as recorded history itself , from ancient Egypt to virtual open warfare from the Seventh Century AD with a variety of Moslem controlled Empires to the present stupidity currently funded by the Yankee wankers for a price as they are being bled dry in both Somalia and Ogaden at the same time from ten thousand paper cuts !

As for the World Bank , it has and always will be a ploy to encourage poor third world nations to squander their limited resources very cheaply at one cent in the dollar to the prime beneficiary the US of A for it to function as country !

What price a choice indeed , for we have rigged the market and scales for the pure benefit of only one country to the exclusion of every one else , but even comedians like the Liverpool(Anfield) born Alexei Sayle , can be very cutting about the continuing failure of the World Bank to address any real issues in the so called developing third world !

To be honest

To be honest the so called new music from the big four labels sucks big time , with a SONY flogging the clone artist genre to death , most of the new releases this century except for the very odd and rare gem , are for the most part just a pure toxic waste of space !

The smaller independent labels seem to have a better eclectic line up and superior variety of styles to suit the tired ears looking for something different !

But since the age of mass production , those that control it have always sought ways and means to exclude the artist from their just rewards and the modern recording contract for the arriving artists are designed by legal vampire specialists to suck blood out of stone period at every level possible !

As for self management , some people have overlooked the simple fact that on any given day it is only twenty four hours no more no less , and things are as never as simple as they look , as at the end of the day the tax man wants his cut first from any income derived , although the big four record company vampires can make it appear as though the profits are synthetic losses using questionable illegal concepts to avoid paying taxes , but these techniques as a whole are not available to ordinary individuals !

One merely has to look at just how much more the groups and individual musicians actually make from live performances free from these vampires evil contracts !

The cure unfortunately to eliminate these vipers , is to permanently remove them from the food chain , but as veneer of civilisation progresses they are on the same endless conveyor belt of self replication , so as fast as you eliminate one batch the parent hydra grows replacement units just as quick !

An interesting conundrum he raises indeed !

heystoopid
Pirate

Interesting Conundrum

Interesting conundrum !

Let's face it , it is the old story of you get what you pay for and pay for what you get !

Now , since the turn of the 20th century the the big four labels and it's past predecessors have had the bean counters conspiring with the aid of evil legal vampires a since the dawn of mass production and at every change of music reproduction technology of popular music issued contracts that literally extract more and more blood out a stone from every corner at every turn of the screw possible !

Since the dawn of the 21st century at least a minimum of 99 % of the music the big four labels have put on general release was of the basic variety "gee whiz I wish I never hear this dog and cat whipping rubbish ever again !" and that too is reflected in how quick they decline on the sales charts of in one day then instantly gone the next lost in the sea of noise . The independent labels in various countries were left to cater for the more discerning eclectic non mainstream audiences or show case the next generation trends ignored for the most part mainstream garbage trash can releases .

In 2000 , Shawn Fanning talking to the big four labels , pointed out that his file sharing network was actually boosting the sales of new music CD's that main stream corporate radio refused to play as there was no financial kickback/bribe incentive from the mainstream labels to do so !

Now , the 1998 Bono Act in the US gave the main labels a new legal way to put their claws into how , when , when , where and new income streams from all music venues and mobile phone ring tones too(fact mechanical royalties figures now outstrip most other items on their balance sheet as a prime source of clear gross profit income) , thus in a form of absolute greed they also began to spread one total and biggest lie about Music Piracy killing music in order to close down the so called music sharing networks and commenced legal action after rejecting Shawn's profit share idea in 2000 (Yet in fact since 2000 , a Rolling Stone Magazine article showed that all new music sales of CD's have declined a massive 60% in volume in the last seven years , yet the main record company profits increased , so guess who gets paid less now ?) !

Self management is never as simple as it looks and the Tax rules that apply to the self employed are totally different from the ordinary transparent ones the man in street with a normal job sees , as allied to entertainment hours that are variable and well outside the normal nine to five job description !

Yes he has a truly interesting conundrum , sign a crap contract and hope the big four honour the terms without excessive deductions and wait about 3 years when the payments after first advance may start to come in or may be not , with hold and sign with a smaller independent label and address a different class of punter or self publish direct via the internet and cut out the other level of blood sucking vampires that infest the industry from A through Z , whilst the chief main source of his income irrespective of the label contract value , actually comes from direct public appearance !

Choices , talk about multi faceted skills required just to survive in the entertainment industry of today outside that of pure talent , one needs an honest contract lawyer , an honest accountant , an honest investment manager , an honest manager , an honest recording producer/sound engineer and a computer whizz just to look after your interests whilst swimming in a sea of voracious hungry sharks skilled at stripping everything to the bone in the blink of an eye !

Sadly , as always in this industry nothing is ever as simple as it seems !

If this keeps going , soon when you buy the big super size 17" plus semi permanent desk top notebooks for an extra $50 you get a pursebook unit to go with it , so you can leave the monsters at work and save on the arm and shoulder stretching exercises whilst waiting at Terminal 5 for your lost baggage to catch up to you from the previous last months flight from wherever !

Think of all those two for one adds in the January sales , and the mind boggles at the thought of sales of all portable computers pursebook units inclusive at the rate of nearly a million units sold per day through out the world , truly impressive as we have come a long way since July 20th 1969 and the Intel 4004 !

So

So when is POS airline called BA filing for chapter eleven bankruptcy and doing a Pan Am style flying bellyflop upside down into the nearest brick wall , that is the bigger question ?

At least Naomi gets the best side of the deal , given the number of pretend servants and slackers that are far too lazy to work for living walking around in BA flight attendant uniforms and explains much why Richard floated his own airline too ?

I'll get my coat , mines the one with the MET bullet holes in the front , whilst standing innocently at the check in counter at T5 !

Is Europe's war on Islamist terror running out of terrorists?

Reason

Reason , more money to found in the hands of the Lichtenstein tax evaders and think of the penalty interest charges and numerous other fees that can be made as well !

But like all phoney wars of mass deception and propaganda it was basically all hype and not much real substance anyway , as the real world of the living and the standard Health Department annual preventable death statistics show along with those wonderful down to earth pre pay funeral insurance adds tell us so delightfully to our face we are all mortal !

Sorry the coat is out getting a new MET resistant Bullet Proof Lining for the next foray to terminal T5 as the fire from the BA side of the bench can be very cutting and sharp at times !

Reminded me of the ultra light weight P2 & P3 Toshiba Portege 3000 series of the late nineties but fed a large dose of cpu steriods to spice the performance !

Oh no pursebook computers at ten paces , the war is hotting up faster then an LG or Liteon factory fire ?

Well at least the nice scenery is back .

@colin

@colin surely you jest , during the War of 1812 on the Atlantic and Pacific Coasts apart from two minor victories at the start of the war the Royal Navy cleaned up the vast majority of all US Flagged Warships and armed Privateers with Letters of Marque with great gusto in the years 1813 and 1814 within less then two weeks of them sailing from any US Atlantic port excluding the USS Essex(the only US commerce raider in the entire war to do any significant commercial damage to British interests , but she was captured in under fifty five minutes off Valparaiso , Chile March 14th 1814 ) !

Have you also forgotten about the capture of the US Fleet Flag Ship , the USS President under the great Commodore Stephen Decatur on January 14th just one day after he sailed from New York , which set a new world record of the fastest end to a US armed combatant commerce cruise for the war off the Atlantic Coast in just under twenty four hours all up !

Shades of

Shades of a Treaty signed in Ghent on December 24th 1814 , where the real losers claimed themselves to be the victors and the real victors got what they wanted anyway with creating an Iraq style debacle by the same losers almost two hundred years later !

How quaint

How quaint , in this new age of 21st Century of Propaganda , people consider privacy an issue , where as the authorities merely use any old excuse irrespective of legality as a tool for conviction "stitch style " where they will produce a wonderful line of BS to confuse , bewilder and befuddle the jury to force a conviction on the grounds of hearsay and perjury from serving Police Officers !

Sadly , both privacy and democracy died the same day that was the end of so called "Cold War" with those so called evil communists who were merely trying to defend their own borders from unlawful incursions from the west and then each new subsequent generation of technology since producing powerful tools to remove the very thin veneer of so called western style democracy , as the powers that be seek ways and means to extend their draconian authority above and beyond what the old and new laws permit within their own borders treating all citizens as grist for their pet hate mill !

Choices , what choices indeed , when we employ people like Sir Ian Blair , who can't or won't tell the truth like it really is and should have been sacked that very day when he uttered the first convenient lie along with many other nameless evil black hearted self interested persons in positions of authority seeking to become the new authoritarian ruling elite not unlike that which ultimately destroyed what they strove to create from lust for absolute power and then caused the fall of the Roman Empire from the rot within the top echelon all those centuries long ago !

The problem is

The problem is along with the errors , we have a small problem with a large number of people in residence in prison innocent of the crimes they have alleged to have committed from small crimes all the way up to capital offences due in part to excessive and inherent racism and basic corruption within the Police Forces themselves using a process called the "Stitch !" or willingness to commit absolute perjury and tell deliberate lies under oath !

This fact has been well documented in many countries often ! Allied to the fact that even when cornered many perpetrators within the force that commit these criminal acts and follies of injustice are usually unpunished both in court and by fellow colleagues within the force who field numerous fallacious excuses to evade the real issue , to remain free to commit further similar perjury crimes ! At times even senior commanders tell deliberate lies in public , as a recent premeditated murder of an innocent man at a tube station by serving Police Officers highlighted ! Only in very rare cases are these criminal thugs in the blue uniform actually punished for their crimes or sacked from their jobs as punishment .

This in turn does not give one much confidence in any system the where political wankers who told many lies about the current war on terrorism with alleged weapons of mass deception , create these "Stalin Police State Laws!"

Proceed with this nonsense at full speed ahead !
