Bungy Jumping

Was visiting Seattle and went to do a bungyjunp for the first time.  The guy running it asked me if I was scared and wanted to back out.  I said "dude I'm from New Zealand, if I die you are going to be criminally liable for it".

In Libya

In Libya, Qaddafi blames the insurrection on Al-Qaeda. 

In Yemen Al-Qaeda is actually actively involved, but only in dodgy arms dumps explosions.

Meanwhile in the Ivory Coast

This BBC article shows just how close the country is to another civil war.  The Northerners already have sleeper cells in the capital ready to try and rest control by force from the former government that even the UN says lost the elections.

Outtara's men in waiting.

Nice one Qadaffi

"In the capital, Tripoli, a distressed woman reached a hotel where foreign journalists are staying, and told them she had been detained for two days by pro-Gaddafi forces and gang-raped after being stopped at a checkpoint.
She was still telling her story when hotel staff and government minders tackled her, and she was dragged out of the hotel and driven away by security guards. Reporters say her story cannot be verified but she did show signs of injury.
A Libyan government spokesman later said the woman was drunk and possibly mentally ill, but said an investigation was being carried out."

He gets to pick His own rank and military decorations.  I think the badge on the left is for masterminding the Lockerbie bombing.

This actually in Yemen I think.

Qadaffi with the FORMER presidents of Egypt and Tunisia, looks cosy

This is my new desktop.  The resolution is pretty bad but still a powerful image.
