Didn't they set up - or were involved with - the Venus Project too?<br /><br />I am watching this now laid in bed. It is great. Fascinating how they weave it all together. And such a sweeping view of it all - makes you realise that all those Keynsian versus Friedman arguments are all pointless because the whole damn thing is completely fucked! <br /><br />I am going to have to turn it off now because I am shattered but it is brilliant. Will watch rest of it tomorrow.princesschipchopshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18202815936353393398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1141707904735688626.post-15694421507490923412011-01-28T02:45:11.436+00:002011-01-28T02:45:11.436+00:00Hi Princess; forget about the "isms" jus...Hi Princess; forget about the "isms" just watch the movie.

It is odd because a fair few right winger types seem to like it but as far as I can see it is really suggesting a sort of socialism?<br /><br />It doesn't call itself socialism but surely the idea of getting rid of money, having technology and food enough for all if we just share it out a bit better - well its socialism isn't it?<br /><br />Maybe however we should just keep that really, really quiet - if some right wingers are getting turned onto it and don't see it as the 'red menace' in any way sense or form, then that can only be a good thing. <br /><br />Of course on the other hand they have been described as cult like and technocratic dictator wannabes and NWO types.

Do this by counting on 3 so <i>3</i>45<b>6</b>, <i>6</i>78<b>9</b>, etc.<br /><br />Go all the way to 30 (or 36 if you like).<br /><br />You get a pattern with some amazing properties. First of all you get a series of diagonals take the one starting with 3 its 3 12 21 The digit sum of all the 2 digit nos make 3! 1+2, 2+1<br />Same for 6 - 6 15 24 33.<br /><br />The secret is finding number games That are fun! There's loads on the net I've got a list sites somewhere not on this hard drive I'll search out the memory stick its on. Trouble is some of its awful! and some sites just want to sell you something!<br /><br />Meanwhile have a look at the BBC education site. <br /><br />http://www.bbc.co.uk/schools/websites/4_11/site/numeracy.shtml<br /><br />Good luck and have fun!annetan42 - one eyed queen!https://www.blogger.com/profile/13518209176207787243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1141707904735688626.post-12189615794488212052011-01-28T00:07:33.675+00:002011-01-28T00:07:33.675+00:00And now Charles Clarke and Michael Portillo side b...And now Charles Clarke and Michael Portillo side by side.

Who's actually running the business fronted by Katie "as seen on TV" Hopkins? I think tonight was the only time I've seen a panel member on QT whose every speech was greeted with total audience silence. Fuck me, even Nick Griffin got sporadic clapping from one or two dickheads! Katie Hopkins is the incarnation of the Daily Express after a radical lobotomy.<br /><br />And is it me, or is there increasing hostility from audiences towards the coalition? I certainly hope so. I notice that not only are the Tories blaming the recession on the weather, but in January, they're saying "the winter was the coldest since 1910". Simple past. Funny, I thought the winter was still continuing, but apparently not.Spikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06758437918995364630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1141707904735688626.post-56943735131667677862011-01-27T23:47:54.937+00:002011-01-27T23:47:54.937+00:00Just a point: I don't claim to know who "...Just a point: I don't claim to know who "badpenny" is but one of the things I love about this site is that it is un-moderated.<br />I'm in the "give them enough rope" camp on this one.<br />If people want to come on here and make a tit of themselves; bring it on, and that includes me!<br /><br />BTW: I don't apologize for flagging this up again: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Z9WVZddH9w<br /><br />This movie should be compulsory viewing for anyone over the age of sixteen.<br /><br />However I have to think about my motives for posting the link are and tbh I want to know what you guys think about it.chekhovhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12579841013364541334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1141707904735688626.post-52516701000738726002011-01-27T23:41:20.913+00:002011-01-27T23:41:20.913+00:00NN to those going to bed and Hi to the night shift...NN to those going to bed and Hi to the night shift.<br /><br />Here's another track from <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c88XzPsvNNs&feature=related" rel="nofollow">Mr Donald Byrd</a>Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11903386470509822035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1141707904735688626.post-48588193021031381282011-01-27T23:37:15.854+00:002011-01-27T23:37:15.854+00:00This comment has been removed by the author.princesschipchopshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18202815936353393398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1141707904735688626.post-32026972260137515642011-01-27T23:28:43.809+00:002011-01-27T23:28:43.809+00:00NN Nap
