If you want a lovely day out, pop down to the Eden Project between 23 and 31 May, and spend some time decorating the lovely "green" cars. A few bits of plantlife, some green spray paint and a chainsaw should do the trick (but leave the trees alone...)

Today the MoD put out the following statement. We are delighted that these tests have stopped, although we maintain that it is a decision that is 100 years overdue. This also highlights a far wider issue, of repeat tests which are being conducted across the country without review, and which would be halted were they exposed to the public.

Formerly known as the “World’s Favourite Airline” until the world decided that it wasn’t too fond of airlines pushing out carbon dioxide into its upper atmosphere, British Airways have decided, in its eternal wisdom, to kit out a couple of Airbus A318s for its most luxury conscious business travellers.

Linux Conference in Brighton
Although it may seem like a very nerdy get together, open source and free software is seen by many as anarchism in practice. The software the runs indymedia is all open source. With the advent of more userfriendly distributions of GNU/Linux like Ubuntu many non-geeks are starting to make the move away from the monopoly of Microsoft. This conference in Brighton will serve as an introduction to those that are considering a move to free software, those that want to learn more about it, as well as for experts who want to learn more about particular developments and pieces of software.[Full Story ]
