KT and I went to the cliff tops again - it's one of our favourite places anyway and as dedicated people watchers we thought it'd be fun to see who was about. Yesterday we ended up having little chats with an Anglia TV cameraman and various passers by, including a really fun lady with a dog that I think was a whippet. Today we watched a BBC camera man trying to get a shot through the mist and gloom before reporter Gareth George was ready to give his report for lunch time telly. What we found qui
Clinton Camp Misrepresents ABC News Report
Wed, 23 Apr 2008 07:09:25 PDT

Wed, 16 Apr 2008 13:10:43 PDT

And now, they're also trying to implicate the Li

787 and tanker disappointments don't dent Boeing earnings
Wed, 23 Apr 2008 07:07:23 PDT
A spate of bad news about its 787 Dreamliner and its proposal for a new Air Force tanker haven't even scratched Boeing Co.'s stellar earnings, the company said this morning.
