It is one of those anniversaries not worth celebrating. But one that must be remembered. Three years have lapsed since the US-led invasion of Iraq. The legality of the invasion has been justified on various occasions by the Bush-Blair administrations through a combination of UN Security Council resolutions. There is an inherent flaw in the reasoning that we cannot afford to forget. The following is a report from the Guardian (March 17, 2003) The attorney general, Lord Goldsmith, said in a written parliamentary answer that the authority to use force against Iraq stemmed from the combined effect of resolutions 678, 687 and 1441. Lord Goldsmith stated: "All of these resolutions were adopted under chapter VII of the UN charter which allows the use of force for the express purpose of restoring international peace and security." The actual advice passed by the attorney general to the prime minister has not been made public, but the official response given today reverses previous...

here's a strange thing a spotted on the net. It is from the Office of Public Sector Information (OPSI) in the UK. This is the department that was known rather quaintly as Her Majesty’s Stationery Office. I was in the process of looking up a particular Act of Parliament when I chanced upon this preliminary instruction: "To ensure fast access over slow connections, large documents have been segmented into "chunks". Where you see a "continue" button at the bottom of the page of text, this indicates that there is another chunk of text available." http://www.opsi.gov.uk/acts/acts2006/20060001.htm Wait a minute.... Did I see the word "chunks"? Chunks? At Her Majesty's Office? That's not quite my idea of Queen's English. :-) Or is the HSMO now consuming "chunks" of the colloquial English that the rest of society freely uses in informal settings... oOPSIe.... I don't mean to be a nanny here. But, I was just qu...

These are my first steps. I have heard much about blogs and have occasionally read and enjoyed some well written observations about a variety of "stuff". I have now on a whim decided to venture my own caravan of observations into this frontier. with and without eyes..... the main purpose of this blog is to record my observations made through my senses and my observations of the inner world made through introspection. Of course, this is a carte blanche for me to write just about anything that i observe and experience. :-) Ultimately i guess its just a platform for me to post my closet on the internet.
