Red Cross warned US and UK of prisoner abuse over 12 months ago
BUT waited 12 months to leak the warning reports...
My life seems to be running beyond control, but I am not yet having that dream
where I am in a car, applying the brakes but the brakes do not work, so I must be coping...
update on the UN and Sudan
currently listening to the Mikado
fluff:
Generosity is giving more than you can, and pride is taking less than you need.
-- Kahlil Gibran
Don't be afraid to take big steps. You can't cross a chasm in two small jumps.
- - David Lloyd George
Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated failures. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent.
--Calvin Coolidge

sorry about the extended posting quietude
but I've been over busy....
Our Archdiocese is having a Synod weekend (which Catholic Dioceses have infrequently) and I am caught up in the business of preparing talks and powerpoint presentations.
The bookshop work is still way behind as well, thanks to the holiday, the Easter break and the Anzac holiday.
Sick of hearing about google - well maybe - I was an orignally tester way back when, and still remember the quizzical looks when I mentioned it to people. Most people I mixed with then were altavista fans....
now google is god
my internet addiction has been under control, my smoking has almost stopped - 1 cigarette every three days at present and i just squeeze in a quick look at the agonist every 6 hours or so.
mike-thanks for the picture, sorry i have not had time to reply..
On the bad news front I have to pull my home computer to bits as it is playing up.
My beloved will not let me near hers coz she is in the middle of university assignments, so it will be another pause between posts...
meanwhile enjoy this fellow: Ron Rolheiser - he pleases me.
on becoming post liberal
weather report- its getting cold, frosts and cool breezes and the sunlight ends almost at the end of the working day.
a family of mice decided to invade the house, which has led us on numerous mouse hunts, snails in the garden are almost non-existent from six months ago, and I have found several frogs as I weeded the ponds in preparation for the winter.
back to the grind of accounts and 'powerpoints'! - you be kind to one another!
