Are we excited yet: Pacquiao vs Hatton

I think Pacman will win. I like Hatton, though I haven’t been impressed with his last few fights. It’s good that Pacman and Hatton are being respectful to each other, while Floyd Mayweather Sr and Freddie Roach are doing the trash talking. Watch this video if you have no idea what on earth I’m talking about. HBO make the best shows and the 24/7 boxing series even got my grandmother interested

Beers, beef and boxing all at mine this Saturday night. Let me know if you’re interested.

Plans for Paris

I read today that Sarkozy is viewing a shortlist of ways to make Paris a greener and greater City. Some of the ideas have ranged from a New Yorkesque Central Park, allowing the Metropolitan to stretch out to Le Harve and a 140km underground automated railway that will wrap around the City.

Exhibit A: Arrogant Twit.

Unfortunately, Sarkozy has yet to identify the greatest hurdle in making Paris a great City, and that is aknowledging the arrogance inhibited by most of it’s French population. London is still going to better.

Heroes: Alan Turing

One of the reasons for you sitting down in front of the computer you’re on is because of a great man, a really great man… Alan Turing, was a natural with Maths and Science and found himself at Kings College, Cambridge where he wrote On Computable Numbers, which is one of the most important papers concerning Computer theory and helped spearhead the design of those wonderful machines. His quote,

“A computer would deserve to be called intelligent if it could deceive a human into believing that it was human.”

is still the foundation for most A.I. work and nobody has yet to suceed, though there were some quite good attempts this year at an A.I. conference in Reading.

Hero number 2

Hero number 2

Turings other major contribution was aiding in cracking Enigma, which was a code writer used by the Nazi’s in World War 2, so you could also say he’s responsible for saving many lives.

So, all this he does for humanity and we celebrate him by injecting him with estrogen because he was homosexual. Bright sparks in the U.K at the time thought it was a mental illness and this also jeopardised Turing’s position in social security issues. Unfortunately, Turing was found dead with a half eaten apple laced with cyanide next to his bed. Even though the world has moved on leaps and bounds in the past century, it’s still ridiculous to think we could be so barbaric 50 years ago, especially to a man who contributed so much to society. Hats off to Alan Turing.

Thanks Arizona

Singapore Day
I was at a Singapore Day celebration over the weekend and it made me remember how rubbish the country is. Apart from getting a Singapore sling in Raffles, going to the zoo and buying cheap electronic goods, me and my gap year companion (from many moons ago) accidentally discovered a way to enter the country without any security checks. We were both mightily impressed as the checks are on a bridge that connects Malaysia with Singapore which didn’t give us that much space.

Needless to say they immigration control weren’t too pleased about us managing to find a flaw in their security system, but they calmed down when they realised we weren’t terrorists or illegal immigrants.

Most places look fun at night. SIngapore wasn't.

This is pretty wrong

When is 3 chord punk going to get back on the scene. Had enough of all this Indie trite.

The least productive boy.

Alien Workshop have managed to prevent people uploading parts from Mind Field up for the past month, but seems like they are getting lax with it. I was going to Embed the Kalis section, but because I’ve been banging on about Philly, I though I would put Mike Taylor’s up instead. Nice.

My football team is QPR. They aren’t in the premier league and their famous for beating up the Chinese Olympic team. Pete Doherty is a fan too, but he’s banned for doing heroin or crack in the toilet.

Here’s a video from Noel’s house party, Les Ferdinand is proper jokes from 5:50.

I want these please.

Shine a light

What happend if the shining turned out like this.

I took a day off today and played football in the park. I used to play like Andrei Kanchelskis, but a couple of months not training meant I played like a clumsy Robbie Savage. Sad Days.

Quotes of the Week: David Haye Klitchko Conference
David Haye
Yes I have a personal dislike for Wladimir. He sucks, he’s crap. I don’t like his style. I don’t like what he represents. He doesn’t entertain. Yes he’s a gentleman but you should judge a fighter on what he does once the bell rings, not what he does outside the ring.
He doesn’t give value for money, like I do. He’s embarrassing, everything he does in the ring is embarrassing. I want him to fight like a man, not run like a bitch. Stand and fight me Wladimir Bitchko! I’m going to smash his head in and he will be bleeding on the floor.
Wladimir Response
Now I see Haye with a cut off head of my brother, my family member. What’s going to be next? My dad’s head? My mother’s head? Will he attack my religion, my race? This is over the edge – it’s not sport. This guy will be punished.
After 12 rounds he will be a pizza face – then I will knock him out. He needs to be taught how to behave.
