Nice to see that those bunch of cheats in Florida are aiming to steal the election for Bush once again. This time they're trying to make sure that no one can ask for a recount if the election result is dubious. Wonder just how many people's votes they'll disallow this time.
To reiterate. Jeb Bush and his cronies are cheating cheaters

Help, a dingo's got my baby
Well, who'd have thought it - so old geezer claims he shot the dingo carrying Lindy chamberlain's baby and he knows what became of the body. Sounds rather far-fetched to me. He says the reason he didn't come forward before was that he was hunting near Uluru and didn't want to get in trouble. Nice to know that he didn't mind Lindy Chamberlain spending four years in prison for nothing tho. I guess that's part of the huntin' shootin' fishin' mindset, then
The story that refuses to die
No 10 might think they got away with the whitewash that was the Hutton report, but Gavyn Davies, ex chairman of the board of BBC Governors, shows no sign of letting the episode recede into the past. Good on him

Jasper - ZX Spectrum Emulator
Have fun playing classic Sinclair Spectrum games online - a real blast form the past. Also there, one of my all-time favourites Ant Attack - one of the only games I'v ever finished.
And how could you forget the Hobbit - "Thorin, bloody well pick me up and climb through the window ... No, you stupid bloody dwarf, don't walk straight into the Goblin again!!"
And of course, probably one of the best games ever, Jet Set Willy OK, get ready to perform a querkafleeg

HOW BUSH FAILED TO FULFILL HIS DUTY
Was George Bush regarded as a deserter from the USAF??
An examination of the Bush military files within the context of US Statutory Law, Department of Defense regulations, and Air Force policies and procedures of that era lead to a single conclusion: George W. Bush was considered a deserter by the United States Air Force.
After Bush quit TXANG, he still had nine months of his six-year military commitment left to serve. As a result, Bush became a member of the Air Force Reserves and was transferred to the authority of the Air Reserve Personnel Center (ARPC) in Denver, Colorado. Because this was supposed to be a temporary assignment, ARPC had to review Bush’s records to determine where he should ultimately be assigned. That examination would have led to three conclusions: That Bush had “failed to satisfactorily participate” as defined by United States law and Air Force policy, that TXANG could not account for Bush’s actions for an entire year, and that Bush’s medical records were not up to date. Regardless of what actions ARPC contemplated when reviewing Bush’s records, all options required that Bush be certified as physically fit to serve, or as unfit to serve. ARPC thus had to order Bush to get a physical examination, for which Bush did not show up. ARPC then designated Bush as AWOL and a “non-locatee” (i.e. a deserter) who had failed to satisfactorily participate in TXANG, and certified him for immediate induction through his local draft board. Once the Houston draft board got wind of the situation, strings were pulled; and documents were generated which directly contradict Air Force policy, and which were inconsistent with the rest of the records released by the White House.

Frozen body to reveal old American mysteries
scientists are about to reveal details of the last journey of the only well preserved ancient body found in North America.
Hunters discovered the frozen body of Kwaday Dan Ts'inchi (Long Ago Person Found) in August 1999 while crossing a glacier high in the mountains of north-west British Columbia, Canada, about 60 miles from southern Alaska.
The body, which had become partly exposed as the glacier melted, was dressed in a cloak made from the pelts of Arctic ground squirrels.
The hunter's apparent belongings – including a walking stick, a wooden spear, a bone knife, a leather pouch containing edible leaves and the remains of a fish, and a broad-rimmed hat of surprisingly fine weave – were scattered nearby.
Experts initially believed the design of the tools indicated that the body was that of an aboriginal hunter who lived in so-called pre-contact times, before a group of Russian traders became the first outsiders to visit the region 250 years ago.
It has since been established that the man was probably aged about 20 and that he probably lived as much as 550 to 660 years ago.
At the time the hunter was found there was speculation that he had fallen, wedged upright in a crevasse.
The body was dug out and packed in blocks of ice cut from the glacier to preserve it during a flight by helicopter to cold storage in Whitehorse in the Yukon Territory.
A team of scientists from both sides of the Atlantic became involved in discovering the body's secrets.
It is now led by Professor James Dickson, of the Hunterian Museum at the University of Glasgow, who is also involved in research of an "iceman" found in the Italian side of the Alps in 1991 by two German climbers. The iceman, nicknamed Otzi, is believed to have drawn his last breath some 5200 years ago.
Professor Dickson said an examination of the North American man's DNA, clothes and stomach contents revealed that he moved inland from the coast shortly before his death.
Tests on his cloak revealed that it contained the remains of two plants normally found in coastal areas.
But they showed the man had not eaten his usual diet of seafood in the last few months before his death.
A North American Indian tribe – known as the Champagne and Aishihik – has claimed Kwaday Dan Ts'inchi as its own. Professor Dickson said the tribe had been kept informed of the research as it progressed.
He said a six-page report – The Holocene – detailing the results of the research to date would be published today.
Professor Dickson said: "This is the first ancient body that has been melted out of anywhere in the Americas. It is the first time that such work has been done in the area.
"On the basis of the carbon dating on his clothing there is no doubt he lived about 550 years ago."
HIS body was entombed under the ice for almost 700 years.
Now, some of the mysteries of ancient civilisation in North America are about to be revealed when scientists unveil some of the details of the last journey of the only well preserved ancient human body ever recovered in the region.
