Fake Facebook profile nets 100 ‘friends’ in 4 days

It appears that many users of Facebook will confirm friendships with a person unknown to them.

This coupled with the standard things that people post to their Facebook profile creates the perfect environment for Identity Thieves to ply their trade.

Teacher sacked for push-up punishment

How times have changed.

A British teacher has been suspended after making his pupils do push-ups as a punishment for arriving late to class.

The Derby Moor Community Sports College, where the unnamed teacher worked, said an investigation was underway and that its “priority is to ensure that students are happy to be in school.”

I’m sure push-ups are not an Ofsted approved punishment but it seems to me to be a fitting punishment at a Sports College.

Mr Crouch my sadistic PE teacher at school would make pupils do push-ups for the slightest infraction and loved every second of it.

Dubya

I was left wondering quite why was this made? Not quite what I was expecting as I was thinking it would be leading up to his presidency and what made him the president he is, but in fact the film casts him in a new light and redeems him a little. Rumsfeld and Cheney however come out badly.

The British actors, Thandie Newton as Condoleeza Rice and Ioin Griffiths as Blair, in the film were for some reason atrociously awful, much worse than the rest of the cast.

The film is the story of a religious fundamentalist for whom belief trumps facts.
Believes he has done the right thing and though he admits that he may have made mistakes I’m sure he has no idea what they might be.

What was Stone thinking? Far too soon for this film, need several years before you can start reflecting upon these recent events. The only reasoning seemed to be, get it made and in cinemas before the end of the presidency and the inevitable influx of books and documentaries etc.
