US puts Assange charge in too-hard basket - report

Just because the US doesn't want to prosecute because it makes them look bad doesn't mean he is out of danger.

I am sure Assange knows this and stays away from windows lest he be assassinated by one of the snipers 500 meters from the embassy....just waiting patiently for him he forget as he admires the view from a window.

Screens could be an argument, but these days I note the Hipsters in Graphics grizzle about "colorspace" etc.

PCs with professional monitors would now outperform a Mac and save the company money and productivity.

NZ bans Brit immigrant's overweight missus

NZ is right

NZ is a small nation of 4 million people. Funding and resources are limited.

We have plenty of slim South African doctors queuing up.

However we are short of union activists, britain being a good source.

So perhaps if this Guys Missus is good at this she should be let in. Except if shes from Yorkshire.
