Rush Limbaugh must be right about Gitmo being a tropical paradise. The prisoners are writing poetry about it.

Death Poem

By Jumah al-Dossari

Take my blood.
Take my death shroud and
The remnants of my body.
Take photographs of my corpse at the grave, lonely.

Send them to the world,
To the judges and
To the people of conscience,
Send them to the principled men and the fair-minded.

And let them bear the guilty burden, before the world,
Of this innocent soul.
Let them bear the burden, before their children and before history,
Of this wasted, sinless soul,
Of this soul which has suffered at the hands of the “protectors of peace.”

In this special 3-minute-long episode of 24, agent Jack Bauer tracks down the members of the deadly Aqua Teen Hunger Force in order to stop the LED Lite Brites from blowing up.

Maybe the rapture has come and she was the only one taken.

Hoogst intressant infografiekje vandaag in de AzijnBode. Eindelijk een handig lijstje waarin staat welke autofabrikanten de grootste milieucriminelen zijn. Zoals u weet moet de CO2-uitstoot van auto’s in 2012 naar 130 gram per kilometer. Want anders smelten de kazen, en kunnen we op strandvakantie naar Almelo. Welnu, proficiat Audi, Mazda, Mercedes, BMW en Volvo. Jullie zijn vieze vuile smeerpijpen. En dan ga je je toch afvragen; wat voor mensen rijden er eigenlijk in dit soort toekomst-verpesters. Jan-Peter Balkenende uiteraard. Ernst Hirsch Ballin natuurlijk. En vergeet onze kroonprins niet met zijn XC90 of Wouter Bos in zijn staatsVolvo. Trouwens, onze vrienden van de KLPD kunnen er ook wat van. Maar liefst 800 Zweedse hoestbakken zijn er in bestelling. U ziet het. De overheid trekt zich nergens wat van aan. Waarom zou u dat wel doen…

In its proposed reauthorization bill to Congress the FAA has proposed legislation that would allow the release of abandoned type certificate (TC) or supplemental type certificate data (including blueprints) to individuals upon request, so they can maintain the airworthiness of their vintage aircraft. This would remedy the current “Catch-22�? surrounding orphaned TCs, where owners are legally required to maintain and modify their aircraft using approved data, even though the data is unavailable because the owner of the type certificate cannot be found or is no longer in existence.

[..]

But existing laws restricted FAA’s ability to release such data because it was deemed to be intellectual property even though the owner of record had long since ceased to exist. This proposed legislation will go a long way toward helping owners and mechanics gather the information they need to maintain these historic aircraft.�?

Data could be released provided the following circumstances are met: The certificate containing the requested data is inactive for at least three years; the TC owner of record, or the owner of record’s heir, cannot not be located; and the designation of such data as public data will enhance aviation safety.

Isn’t copyright law great?

If by law, avionic information has to be free, (or available), what will be next?

“Wat Myra, Doortje en Rakker vandaag toch weer mee hebben gemaakt..” Hondeneigenaren weten allang wat voor een spannend leven hun huisdieren hebben, maar vanaf woensdag kan iedereen op internet lezen wat voor avonturen ze dagelijks meemaken.

Op www.blaft.nl kunnen gebruikers gratis een eigen hondenblog openen en verhalen en foto’s van de trouwe viervoeters plaatsen.

Oke dan, miauwt.nl is aktief, en elke kat kan nu ook zijn eigen weblog beginnen.
