Get your docs onto an optical disc. Probably less space than you think.

What you did today
Best method I know is to use just a little oil (4/5 vegetable to olive) and some salt and garlic, to coat the potato slices, stir in a high heat about three times, at two minute intervals, then turn the heat low and let them steam in a mix of their own water and the oil. About 25 minutes all told. You can drain off the excess oil at the end.

Mkreku's favourite day of the year. Schools hand out A-level results, family newspapers print thinly disguised schoolgirl shots.

Study classifies four types of family-killers
I'm also curious about what interventions might work. To be honest I think those guys who just drive to succeed without any real interest or emotional weight behind it... I think they are accidents waiting to happen full stop. Granted only a tiny percentage kill tehri own bloody families. But theyr'e all a bit messed up.

Renewed unrest in Egypt
I used the example of the gennie to trigger exactly that suggestion. Teargas doesn't peacefully disperse people, and it causes a massive disturbance to surrounding areas. I don't mean to get aggressive, but you need to read a few accounts of first world crod policing to understand how ****ing difficult it is. I interviewed a police sergeant who told me that the most frightening thing he ever saw - and this across a career involving dismemberments and armed robberies - was a football crowd. And that's an unarmed British football crowd. Seriously. Dig around a bit and have a read of some first hand accounts of the kidn of crowds we're discussing. You may not agree with me at the end, but I guarantee you won't feel the same way afterwards.

Study classifies four types of family-killers
The four types Self-righteous: Killer seeks to locate blame for his crimes upon the mother who he holds responsible for the breakdown of the family. For these men, their breadwinner status is central to their idea of the ideal family. (case study: Brian Philcox) Anomic: The family has become firmly linked to the economy in the mind of the killer. The father sees his family as the result of his economic success, allowing him to display his achievements. However, if the father becomes an economic failure, he sees the family as no longer serving this function. (case study: Chris Foster) Disappointed: This killer believes his family has let him down or has acted in ways to undermine or destroy his vision of ideal family life. An example may be disappointment that children are not following the traditional religious or cultural customs of the father. (case study: Mohammed Riaz) Paranoid: Those who perceive an external threat to the family. This is often social services or the legal system, which the father fears will side against him and take away the children. Here, the murder is motivated by a twisted desire to protect the family. (case study: Graham Anderson) From the BBC

Renewed unrest in Egypt
What concerns me is that casualties are too high to resolve trhough reconciliation, but too low to attrit the Brotherhood's total manpower. Worst of both worlds. Thought: presumably what you'd want woudl be some sort of industrial grade irritant factory on a trailer, which could turn household waste into some grud awful smoke. Park that upwind of the site and turn it on.

Renewed unrest in Egypt
http://www.colombotelegraph.com/index.php/total-destruction-of-the-tamil-tigers-the-rare-victory-of-sri-lankas-long-war/ I have a friend with a more than passing connection to Sri Lanka. He was emphatic that the last offensive was tantamount to a walking barrage/ kesselschlact. It was a slaughter involving many thousands of innocents [his view]. He said to me when it was going on that it was only a matter of time before people started copying it. I was utterly disbelieving, given what he told me. Then you show up with a copy of a highstreet newspaper saying just that.

What I love is that the forum's eyes are firmly fixed on this question while Egypt is melting down.

Prism Program ( Big Brother gone too far?)
Ref Mr Parker's comment in light of Hurlshots: monitoring without action is a total waste of goddamn time, money, and liberty. The real issue, as I've said many time sin this thread, is what we do about threats once identified. What we _should_ be doing is funding programs which tackle the extremists we already know about and or have locked up. What we _should_ be doing is attracting less nutters and more normal people into the services (so we don't have to rely on nutters). We should also be treating veterans as people with needs we already know about, like PTSD.

Weird News Stories
I just had the most terrifying realisation. Somewhere on this planet a man or woman, or possibly a bunch of them, are worrying about how to launch or re-brand a breakfast cereal. This is their life. Their experiences, their UNIVERSE hangs on some campaign of utter nonsense. But that's not the terrifying thing. The really terrifying thing is that they probably think it all makes perfect sense, and are happy enough doing it.

Plus I doubt anyone ever got a promotion in these groups by suggesting they just chill out for six months. And there's how many Palestinians being 'represented' by these folks? Damned if you do and damned if you don't, really. Either the militants are elected legitimately, in which case isn't Israel actually legally at war? Or they aren't legitimate, and ... I'm not sure.- The (hopefully) attractive men thread
Good luck with the pure blood in a country with so many land borders. I honestly don't know why you keep going on about race. It's creeping me out. EDIT: and if your point is just to be creepy, you really need to get out more. - Kerry's Israeli/Palestinian peace talks
