Censoring The Whistle-blowers
2008-02-19 22:44:00 Hey, why not kick them off the internet too? According to yesterday's article by the BBC, a court in California just ruled that all traces of a website called Wikileaks be removed from the internet. The website was founded in 2006 as a means for whistle-blowers to "anonymously post government and corporate documents." It claims to have published more than 1.2 million. Though there seems to be clear potential for abuse, especially when it comes to the security of government documents, the site had equal potential as a positive watchdog endeavor. The circumstances surrounding the site's shutdown are especially dubious. The case was filed by Julius Baer, a Swiss banking group. Wikileaks recently posted several documents which "allegedly reveal that the bank was involved with money laundering and tax evasion." Wikilinks did not have an attorney present at the hearing, nor were they there themselves. The reason? Apparently they were only given a few hours notice. By e-mail. How outrage...
Whistle-blower Site Taken Offline
2008-02-19 21:03:00 A controversial website that allows whistle-blowers to anonymously post government and corporate documents has been taken offline in the US. Wikileaks.org, as it is known, was cut off from the internet following a California court ruling, the site says. The case was brought by a Swiss bank after "several hundred" documents were posted about its offshore activities. Other versions of the pages, hosted in countries such as Belgium and India, can still be accessed. However, the main site was taken offline after the court ordered that Dynadot, which controls the site's domain name, should remove all traces of wikileaks from its servers. The court also ordered that Dynadot should "prevent the domain name from resolving to the wikileaks.org website or any other website or server other than a blank park page, until further order of this Court." Other orders included that the domain name be locked "to prevent transfer of the domain name to a different domain registrar" to prevent chang...

arsenal v birmingham, 1-1 final whistle
2008-01-14 17:22:00 When we're at the home at the Emirates, I usually make mental notes for my blog postings whilst watching games, as I don't think it fair on other spectators who would understandably be distracted seeing a man with a pen and a notepad, furiously writing and then every so often, standing up to sing like a nutter along with the crowd each time the home singing begins. My feeling was that my biggest problems for the game were going to be noting the various positives of who did what and when, whilst memorising original descriptions of our free-flowing play against a side we all expected to beat. And so it was that the game started, with most of the play in the middle of the park for the first 5-10 minutes. After 10 minutes, Birmingham started to feel the pressure as Arsenal pushed forward, easily taking the game to the visitors. In the...

everton v arsenal, final whistle
2007-12-29 21:02:00 Firstly, heartfelt condolences to the family and team-mates of Motherwell captain Phil O'Donnell, who died after collapsing towards the end of his side's Scottish Premier League game against Dundee United. These are the times when we're reminded that there are many other things outside of football that are more important. And so to the second half of the Everton v Arsenal game. Just before Eduardo's goal, I was about to make a note to myself asking if Aluminia looks capable in the Arsenal goal due to his personal ability, or whether the current Arsenal back-four hide Almunia's deficiencies because they are a good unit. I didn't have much time to reflect on that before Eduardo clawed back the equaliser with a brilliant goal. Instead, I found myself writing "Where did Eduardo come from?". And where did that "pass from Clichy come from?". The Setanta commentator said ...

arsenal v tottenham, final whistle
2007-12-22 18:05:00 Contrary to everything logic and everyone else had been telling me, I had a bad feeling about this game. I usually get like this before games where everyone and their dog is predicting a convincing win - I'd read other blogs over the last few days, and all predicted a pretty straightforward dismissal of Spurs, and there were even some that thought scores could end up being a three- to four-goal difference - games like those always gives me the butterflies. So it was with some anticipation that I travelled to the Emirates to watch the second leg of the North London derby between us and Tottenham. The first half was a bit of a strange one. The widely anticipated massacre did not materialise, with Arsenal surprisingly...

An unbelievable achievement, if you ask me, against a Blackburn side that our first team has recently found hard to beat. In the second-half, as predicted, Blackburn came out all guns blazing, looking for quick parity, and I...

sevilla v arsenal, final whistle
2007-11-27 23:45:00 Unfortunately, the second half started as the first had ended, with Sevilla on the front foot and Arsenal looking a shadow of the team we've come to expect this season. Thankfully Le Boss saw fit to introduce Sagna to his natural position, and a better balance was restored immediately after the switch. Eboue needs to cut out his amateur dramatics for a number of reasons - the third most important reason being that it drags the rest of the team down - good players don't like to see their own player hit the deck rolling about like they've just been taken out by a sniper. The second most important reason he should give it up, is that it breaks up play, and in a way that affects Arsenal's slick pass and move game. It's bad enough having a whistle happy referee who blows at the slightest excuse, but having your own player disrupt our own play to feign injury is very counterproductive. But the most important reason why Eboue should stop feigning injury, is that just like the shepher...
Gordon Brown's dog whistle - "British jobs for British workers" supplies my
2007-11-16 23:03:00 Gordon Brown's dog whistle "British jobs for British workers" has made the news again today. Trawling through the various stories I came across a beauty of a quote for a 'quote of the day'. It's not at all PC and that's what I like about it. It comes from a man in a position to know what he is talking about, who when asked a dodgy question, gave an honest answer.Mark Rye, of the employment firm DKM Labour Solutions, explained why it is easier to fill vacancies with foreign workers. Mark said: "It's a lot easier to find jobs for these people because these are the people applying for the jobs. Gordon Brown's suggestion that we should march British jobless to the front of the queue belies his lack of understanding of the situation."Now here comes the quote of the day: Asked whether many British people did not want to work, Mark replied: "Yes, I think that's one way of putting it."Ah the truth, isn't it refreshing? Good on you Mark Rye.
