WOKING

Women are still earning 18% less than men.

This is not just because they're traditionally doing less skilled or part time work, we're talking about women doing the same job..

Women graduatesare earning 15% less than men within five years of starting work.

Perhaps the new, unpaid, Minister for Women can work on this.

Galloway at the senate Video.

I'm still not sure whether this man is a crook or a hero.

But.. either way, as far as I can grasp, it turns out that Senator Coleman's dossier used the same documents from the Telegraph libel case.. the ones that turned out to be fake. This was the embarassing howler.

Doh!

It probably does turn out that a major donor to his Miriam campaign was oil-for-food dodgy. But that got a bit lost.

Meanwhile, Galloway gets platform in Senate. Doh!

God is a quantum superposition and our divine free will a quantum effect...hmm.

The offending film about "physics".

Rock on Richard Dawkins.

Here's the interesting point as I see it: This is clearly a religious film. It's sponsored by some sort of cult.

... I think it's another piece of evidence that there's an increasingly alarming amount of religion going on in the world, especially in the US.

Some years ago, I think I felt strongly that religion was, overall, a bad thing.

Then I got older and decided it was, like many bad habbits, mainly harmless - except for the poor old shanty-town catholics with 15 children. In our country at least, all the evidence about church attendance suggested it seemed to be mostly going away of its own accord. So: harmless in the developed world at least.

Now I think I'm swinging back to my former position - I think it's a real worry.

"...Not as good as Gatwick, but the best place land side that I have found is Terminal 2 in the seating area opposite the escalators on the first floor. ..."
