IDF Weapons
The Eyeball, Each unit is only slightly larger than a baseball and can be simply thrown into the area that needs to be checked out. It provides continuous, real-time 360º audio and video surveillance and can be moved remotely. It can also be mounted on a pole or lowered on a cable into a tunnel.
The Eyedrive, a lightweight, four-wheel, remote-controlled, observation and surveillance mini-robot that provides continuous, real-time 360º audio and video surveillance. Due to its durability, the robot can be thrown on the ground, go down stairs, flip over and keep on going.

Why is Cameron not getting 'er done?
Over at Pajamas Media I try to get my head round the fact that the Conservatives are so close to losing to Gordon Brown. A hung parliament with such an unpopular government and an economy is just beyond belief. Then again I predicted that he would not cut it soon after he was elected leader and predicted a hung parliament over two years ago. Please head over and take a look, leave you comments and see if you can explain to yanks what the hell is going on.

Professor Dr. Sheikh Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri, issued a 600-page ban denouncing terrorists and suicide bombers as "unbelievers...without any excuses, any pretexts, or exceptions."

A Little Poem About Computer Spell Checkers
Eye halve a spelling chequer
It came with my pea sea

Miss steaks eye kin knot sea.
Eye strike a key and type a word
And weight four it two say
Weather eye am wrong oar write
It shows me strait a weigh.
As soon as a mist ache is maid
It nose bee fore two long
And eye can put the error rite
Its rare lea ever wrong.
Eye have run this poem threw it
I am shore your pleased two no
Its letter perfect awl the weigh
My chequer tolled me sew.

Fiat follies.................from Rico
The folly of Keynes and fiat money is playing out before us now.
The FDIC is broke.
Fannie and Freddie are racing one-another to lose as much money as possible.
State governments are sinking fast.
Cities and towns are going broke.
There are few 'healthy' CRE loans in existence.
Ben continues to print money almost as fast as our politicians can spend it.
I have very little doubt (looking at US debt-to-GDP) that following the Euro and the Pound Sterling the Greenback will be next.....
Followers of Hayek and the Austrian school of economics understand that cold-hard-cash is not fiat paper 'promises' to pay.
