It's very useful to examine as a general lay of the lay for how Bush will start off against whatever Dem he faces. But from there, it just makes me want to scream. It's clearly based on all the ridiculous old-school, shithead assumptions that the entire race comes down to |

- Peace in Liberia Brings Its Own Kind of Strangeness For 14 years, the war in Liberia came and went on the television screen and in the news pages, engendering a peculiar mix of humanitarian outrage and voyeuristic curiosity. Now peace of a sort has arrived in Liberia, though boys in wigs still run around with Kalashnikovs, and fighting continues in the countryside, despite a truce, a transitional government and the arrival of United Nations peacekeepers. |

- Detour est un shareware bien pratique qui gčre l'audio pour chaque application en envoyant le son vers la sortie audio spécifiée. Ainsi, vous pouvez regarder un film via DVD Player tout en réduisant au silence toutes les autres applications et donc ne pas ętre parasité par des alertes systčmes par exemple. Detour prend tout son sens avec des hauts-parleurs externes. Il fonctionne aussi avec seulement le haut parleur interne du Macintosh. Un logiciel dont on ne peut que difficielement se passer une fois essayé. |

- Farting toy dog set off security alert A stupid toy dog which farts (or 'breaks wind' as the polite media says) set off the security alert at Norfolk Airport in Virginia, USA. Apparently, the mechanism for farting registered as an high explosive on the monitoring equipment. The toy's owner, Dave Rogerson, managed to keep all the silly jokes to himself and waited for the FBI to check out the dog, and could thus catch a later plane. Now we know the eqipment works for silly toys and whatever makes farts. I'd be more relieved if it was confirmed that it works for real bombs, too. |
