Surveillance: British: Thats alot of cameras
^that kind of contrived impersonal officiousness is prevelent here in Australia too.

My pet hate is the phrase "thanking you very much" when a shopkeeper or policeman says that, what's being communicated is that "someone" is thanking me - just not the person speaking.

Obama's Veep Pick Predictions? (Election08 Talk Post)
It would be pretty funny if Obama picked Hagel and McCain picked Lieberman.

Thinker - I do talk to myself at this time of the night when only Aussies, Kuwaitis and Kurazies are up. Which one are you?

Obama's Veep Pick Predictions? (Election08 Talk Post)
It just seems to me that getting that mob of angry, motivated, active females on your side puts more states in play.

"Emily" - Image Metrics Tech Demo
It could lead to actors in production for multiple movies at the same time, just dub in the voice later.

Actors will be all about licensing their image instead of actually having to show up.

Once Angelina Jolie's scan hits the black market - a new porn era will begin.

I'm curious Doc_M - what about tweaking an existing virus like Ebola, and making it more deadly?

Interventionism and Democracy (Blog Entry by Farhad2000)
I agree that multi-lateral intervention is sometimes a good idea. It would have been a good idea in Myanmar IMHO.

It's a shame that the whole intervention pot has been pissed in and spoiled by the Iraq debacle.

I'm not much of a nationalist. Bring on a democratic world government please - sans black helicopters. The UN is a poor governing body. Unfortunately I don't think we will get a truely effective world government until there is another massive world war or Aliens invade. Nothing brings a group of humans together like the fear of "the other".

Human Slinky on America's Got Talent
I've never seen anything like this. Cool, somehow almost obscene.

Death Star Over San Francisco
This is from George Lucas' new movie Star Wars 2008.

They finally find the planet Earth and Luke and Han ride around California on flying motorcycles.
