I have a friend who managed to make all the computers in his college display a rude message on the screen savers. He nearly got suspended. But this news story is really good.

I noticed a article on yahoo news about Police actually questioning the big brother contestants and 'in theory' bringing about charges of incitement of racial hatred. What is happening to this country, who are the 40,000 people that complained about racism. Speak up anyone who agrees this nonsense as racism. Most of what the contestants said was through ignorance and some of it was only border line racist. When will people start phoning the police when they hear 2 guys in a pub saying they dont like x, y or z. Get a grip you losers!!!!!

Here in the UK on a daily basis we hear on the news about yet another sex crime committed and,whilst I agree that these crimes are despicable I also feel that we are becomming so obsessed with this type of crime other serious crime is not getting nearly enough publicity.
There is a steady increase in crimes on our estates such as,people being attacked in their own homes,yobs frightening people going about their everyday business,arson attacks and street robberies.
Does the media not realise that all crime has victims and these people need help and support as well.
What are your views on this and do you think other crimes should be given the intense media pressure that sex offenders get which,I to a certain point,agree with

In a Feb. 1 AP story by Mike Stobbe, carried on Yahoo news, U.S. Health and Human Services announced "plans" for fighting the bird flu. Do you think this is a plan or another "Katrina" response?

The "plan" gives vacine producing companies lawsuit protection. So far only 22 million shots (which may not work) will be available for 300 million people. As the bird flu progresses they will cut back on school attendance and other public gatherings.

This story also indicates that a workable vaccine will probably not be produced until months into an epidemic. Is this a plan that is acceptable to your Congressman?

This looks more like keeping up business as usual; while cutting back in stages for what the military might call acceptable losses. I don't call this a plan, would you?

This question is about the terrorism and not communal conflicts.
This man has tackled terrorism issues wisely and hence he is very popular in Gujarat, no matter the poison media has been vomiting against him. Indian politics has many faces and each face depends on the hot issue of a particular territory. But, he dealt properly on the burning issue in his territory.

It seems there's this whole big denial thing going on because people hear the 'big' news about global warming and the like but don't want to have to change things in their 'small' world. Like, a lot of people would be "Well, a big four wheel drive is envorinmentally unsound, but I feel safer on the road, which has more direct impact on my life", or "Well, I could take a coffee cup to work, but then I'd have to wash it, and I'm busy", or "Well, even if I do reduce my disposable waste consumption, my neighbours are still going to put their cans of special brew in the bin, so what's the point?"

What do you think?
