200 picked so far to run for BNP

BNP yesterday announced names of its candidates for over 200 seats, but the tense wait for many parliamentary hopefuls was not over yet as the nomination pendulum kept swinging.

I hate going there. I hate everything about it. I hate going to that atmosphereless corporate cake tin of a stadium where every time you look up that middle tier is a poke in the eye that reminds you that it's money that rules football these days.

The ground is designed so that you bow down in awe to those in the posh seats whose support is measured in currency and is therefore more valuable and more valued than yours. So what if they missed the goals either side of half time? At least they got first go at the Peter Storey Carvery. I hate their nicking of behaviour from other fans. The announcer reading out only the first names of the players expecting the crowd to shout back the rest, nicked from Roma. The scarves held aloft during Elvis Presley, a la the Kop and the twirling of scarves patented by the Geordies. I really hope we never play in a ground like that.

Finnish E-Voting System Loses 2% of Votes

kaip writes "Finland piloted a fully electronic voting system in municipal elections last weekend. Due to a usability glitch, 232 votes, or about 2% of all electronic votes were lost. The results of the election may have been affected, because the seats in municipal assemblies are often decided by margins of a few votes. Unfortunately, nobody knows for sure, because the Ministry of Justice didn't see any need to implement a voter-verified paper record. The ministry was, of course, duly warned about a fully electronic voting system, but the critique was debunked as 'science fiction.' There is now discussion about re-arranging the affected elections. Thanks go to the voting system providers, Scytl and TietoEnator, for the experience."

Video Games Live

Video Games Live On Friday night, the English Chamber Orchestra were tuning up for something just a little bit different.

A huge screen hangs over the stage running a reel of retro video games, each new game that flicks into view bringing cheers from the gathered in attendance.

Two-for-one online car offer in Britain attracts customers by the thousands

A British car dealer has found one way around the looming recession by offering a buy-one-get-one-free offer on new cars, a report said on Saturday. Online car broker Broadspeed.com, based in Colchester near London, offered customers two Dodge Avenger SXT saloon cars, like the one pictured, complete with leather seats and air conditioning, for £20,000 pounds ($37,236). The dealership near London has just sold the last of the cars. Managing director Simon Empson told the Guardian newspaper: "It was amazing. We had been trying to sell those cars online at half price for nearly a month and they were selling, but it was nothing special. "But when we made the deal two-for-one, we got 22,000 customers." The number of new cars sold in Britain in October fell by nearly a quarter compared with the same period a year ago.

Arts & Culture

THE atmosphere in the new hall in which facilities were still being fitted was a metaphor. If for anything, it gives meaning to what the thinkers literally stand for. It reminds one of the painstaking, enduring and patient nature of the early classicists nurtured by the experiences of their Greek and Roman heroes. For the foreigners, it was a baptismal of fire and yet they remained glued to their seats apparently bewildered by the literary stuff the classicists are made of.

An afternoon of turgid and virtually entertainment free football at White Hart Lane saw Everton return north with all three points and Spurs drop to 16th place with only goal difference keeping us out of the bottom three.

Near the beginning of last season (and two Tottenham managers ago) Everton also won at WHL but what a contrast that game was to this. On that occasion Arteta made great use of the space in midfield to open us up with some fine passing and give the anti-Jol movement in the boardroom a big shove in the direction of southern Spain. This time though there was more space in the away section than there was on the field as the clumps of empty seats in the corner of the Park Lane watched a well organised five man blue midfield successfully stifle any attempts by us to get Lennon or Bentley into positions to attack the defence directly.

Replacing Metal Detectors With Brain Scans

Zordak writes "CNN has up a story about several Israeli firms that want to replace metal detectors at airports with biometric readings. For example, with funding from TSA and DHS, 'WeCU ([creepily] pronounced "We See You") Technologies, employs a combination of infra-red technology, remote sensors and imagers, and flashing of subliminal images, such as a photo of Osama bin Laden. Developers say the combination of these technologies can detect a person's reaction to certain stimuli by reading body temperature, heart rate and respiration — signals a terrorist unwittingly emits before he plans to commit an attack.' Sensors may be embedded in the carpet, seats, and check-in screens. The stated goal is to read a passenger's 'intention' in a manner that is 'more fair, more effective and less expensive' than traditional profiling.
