Stumbled across
NTT Docomo's vison for mobile networks in 2010. The good news is that the ozone hole will be fixed by 2035. The bad news is that we'll all live in happy families in a seemingly poverty free utopia, in white suits with wooden acting. Enjoy...
The
BBC reports on a current Human Rights test case, regarding the
retention of DNA samples and fingerprints from those not convicted of a crime. Well gee, I remember being promised that wouldn't happen.
Word reaches Cheesphone HQ of the most

Top that button freaks!

John Pilger on on the deceit used to justify a war against Saddam, over at the
Mirror.
Ananova has covered the
World Black Pudding Throwing Championships. I'd never heard of "Cheese Rolling" before, and I've certainly not heard of "Black Pudding Throwing" before today (not as sports anyway). I gotta face it..... I'm a stranger in my own land...
Despite
California's much publicised
Proposition 215 allowing Marijuana cultivation for
medicinal purposes, the
DEA decided to engage in a
good old fashioned slice of Federally sponsored terrorism.
At 7 a.m., Sept. 5, a dozen camouflage-clad agents showed up at the Davenport home of Valerie and Michael Corral, who founded WAMM a decade ago. Pointing their weapons, the agents told wheelchair-bound WAMM member Suzanne Pfeil to stand up. "I can't stand up. I told them I was sorry," said Pfeil, who suffers from post-polio syndrome.
DEA agents then arrested a pajama-clad Valerie Corral, along with her husband Michael.
Destroying WAMM's 2002 crop took the DEA under an hour, as clocked by a WAMM security camera that captured chainsaw-wielding agents mowing down 130 pungently aromatic plants, which moments before stood 6-8 ft tall and only weeks away from being harvested.
Since the passage of Proposition 215, many pot clubs have been shut down, including several in the San Francisco Bay Area. Thursday's raid was the latest round in an escalating tug of war between local and federal authorities.
In addition to California, 7 other states -- Alaska, Arizona, Colorado, Hawaii, Maine, Oregon and Washington -- allow the cultivation of medical marijuana. But U.S. Attorney General John Ashcroft maintains that Proposition 215 and other such measures violate federal drug law.
Bush sure wants this War bad (
Also, and some
Blair ranting here ). Perhaps, we should have a
whip-round to buy him a Rifle and the airfare to Baghdad? By the way, check out
www.whatreallyhappened.com for a good frequent round-up of all the web news on this sad state of affairs (Not that it's encouraging).
Never mind the
Cotton Candy stories brought to you in your childhood, the
true stories of Scooby & co are far more
frightening,
terrifying and
sanity defying! The Truth is laid laid bare in
The Last Testament of Daphne Pickman.
