i was glued to my speakers!
it clearly and sysematically explains the background to the entire affair
going way back to the arms deal and chubby? shake? his accountant
right up to to day.
i would like your reaction and opinion on it from all sides of the pollitical
spectrum.
“Jacob Zuma is one of the most powerful men in South Africa. He controls the
ruling African National Congress and is poised to replace President Thabo Mbeki
as head of state. But Jacob Zuma has a problem. Prosecutors say he’s corrupt
and hope to bring him to trial in August. Mr Zuma says the charges are
political, designed to keep him from power. For Assignment Martin Plaut
travelled to South Africa to investigate.”

i have just looked at my LINKEDIN network and this is what it looks like – i’m telling you this so that you can take a look at it and peruse the connections – get inspired/fired up/ be amazed!
i’ve put a post up[?] posted a post[?]to show you how to find your network page
LINK to your NETWORK STATS
the statistics page, has been broken down into, who your connections are by professions/industries/where they are and by percentiles too – i have a huge group of IT engeneers in holland! 58 harvard graduates all over the place.
and….
your connections have introduced their connections making
my 2nd degree connections 71!
and
wait for it…..
those connections connections are now
3,300!! [3 degrees away]
this is thanx to you – i’m hoping that you can also access them.
“they” might have blocked this from happening – i’m not sure – i need someone to let me know
so i can email you my network url/uri and see if that works!
so much to do & limited time to do it in
i’ve been perusing some of your connections’ websites and blogs
it’s amazing how brilliant these people are and what they do
which of course is obvious
given the person that you are!

to pool our enthusiasm – bounce ideas about – link up with like minded people and not like minded too
i will create a post called CONTRIBUTIONS? [do suggest something better pls] where you can enter what ever you like and if it gets replies/responses i can then create a new post for it

i think the only way to master something is to do it a lot!
PLEASE feel completely OK making suggestions criticisms about the blogg and anything else – to improve it make it more user friendly and enjoyable
i think i have got some fun stuff on here too and i’d love you to add your best links to too [to to?] [too to?] [too too?] [as well] it!
maybe we can create a question and answer post and maybe a wants and an offer posts as well?
are there too many posts?
are there any negatives to blogging?
besides it becoming addictive.
i’m hoping that this blogg with be valuable to anyone that looks at it and be really useful and enjoyable and…. fluid[i’ve had to stop myself from use the o word – organic!]
on a financial program i heard a CEO say “our stocks are really organic” [as in stocks and shares not beef!]

●WHAT ABOUT A DECIMAL CLOCK?
One time zone only – milli day clock makes a whole lot more sense to me. It does have problems too! Time is a facinating thing – John Hynes web site is packed with absolutely fascinating information about all sorts of different TIMES & live clocks of all kinds.
UPDATE:@ 077.833D398.194 = 13th May 2008 = 077.833 [398.194 = 512 [milliday] [converter was deceased/broken!]
Due to swatch having removed the desktop download of ”internet time”
I’m removing them too!
A week ago i didn’t even know there was such a thing as decimal time let alone a clock! I had thought about it but soon gave up as my brain started to hurt!
So how does it work?

ICEBERG WATER HAS 0.1 POLLUTION
a 12thousand year old iceberg’s ice makes the purest water.
the ‘purity’ metre shows 0.1
a glass of tap water shows + – 400 [newfoundland?]
i wonder what our tap water would show?
heard this on the thirsty traveller [satellite tv]
didn’t catch the brand name but vodka is make with it
i wonder how much it would cost to harvest icebergs to bottle it?
perish the thought! the ice caps are already shrinking
