Yeah Z! I watched that documentory on 4-Corners lastnight and the tales from
those who escaped relatively unharmed were a real insight :o Hopefully life as
London commuters knew it doesn't change with regard to freedom they enjoy;
increased security measures are going to have to be balanced with civil liberty


The attacks have stunned the UK,
but will security change for ever?

I'm off to Ipswitch this weekend. I went out of my way to get a train that changes via London out of spite to terrorists.

Hear hear!
I always sit back and wonder who gave anyone the right to attack innocent people??
Who are they to do that?

It could be a javascript problem. In Mozilla based browsers, as soon as any javascript is run from clicking a link, all animated gifs stop animating until you refresh the page. This is why all mouse events should be tied in with the onClick <a> property rather than href .. bla bla bla .. although looking around the page I can't see any javascripty links ..

Edit : The banana stopped for me, but the animated banners didn't, so it's not that at all! Maybe the gif doesn't loop forever?

That's a possibility, because that's something I'm noticing too.  The banana isn't dancing, but the badgers are.  It could be the banana.  Perhaps it tires out too easily.

the police arrested a suspect:

from Comcast.com:

LEEDS, England - Police said Tuesday they were investigating whether four attackers died in last week's London subway and bus bombings and have arrested one person after a series of raids in this northern city with a strong Muslim community.

At least three of the suspected bombers came from the West Yorkshire region, which includes Leeds, said Peter Clarke, head of the Metropolitan Police anti-terrorist branch.

Closed-circuit TV video showed that all four had arrived at King's Cross station by 8:30 a.m. on Thursday, about 20 minutes before the blasts began that killed at least 52 people, Clarke said.

In a Scotland Yard news conference, Clarke said police had "strong forensic and other evidence" that the man who carried a bomb onto a subway train that exploded between the Aldgate and Liverpool Street stations had died in the blast, and they were awaiting confirmation from the coroner. Police were trying to determine whether the other three also died in the explosions.

Police indicated that there had been a breakthrough in their inquiry.

"This investigation is going at great speed," Clarke said.

"The investigation quite early led us to have concerns about the movements and activities of four men, three of whom came from the West Yorkshire area," he said. "We are trying to establish their movements in the run-up to last week's attacks, and specifically to establish if they all died in the explosions."

One of the suspects had been reported missing by his family at 10 a.m. Thursday, and some of his property was found on the double-decker bus in which 13 died, Clarke said.

Wow.  Just wow.

It's just dandy :-)

I'm eating battered deep fried bananas with heaps of icecream as snack as well as for breakfast lunch and dinner getting ALL my nutritional value and not getting any fatter :-)

I said they have no right .. I didn't say it doesn't exist ..
my point was out of annoyance .. purely that .. it doesn't matter what the reason is .. there's just no justification ... that's all ... and getting quoted with morningstings spin wasn't how I intended the post .. :-P

Mine doesn't stop and I use Mozilla.
Maybe it's cause I'm using a MAC?

Well, your post wasn't bad.

Her's was all "OMFG HOW DARE THEY DO SOMETHING LIKE THIS THEY HAVE NO RIGHT, THE POWER RANGERS WILL STOP THEM CAUSE THE GOOD GUYS ALWAYS WIN!"

There is no MORAL or ETHICAL justification.  There is always a justification.

No one is evil.  Confused yet?  LEt me explain.  No one does things thinking they are evil.  If you ask an evil person if he thinks he's evil, he will always tell you no and explain to you why what he's doing is right.

Evil is insane.  So never think there isn't a justification.  Trust me, those suicide bombers had a justification in their minds that was enough to convince them to DIE for it.
