Present case numbers for the ?K? variant Super-Flu don't justify the hype, says Dr David Livermore. Perhaps it's the media lust for fear porn, or perhaps the Government's fear of the strike, but it's not a Super-crisis.

In the good old days, children's comics had one purpose: to be funny. Now, the Beano sees its mission as 'mental health' ? and has its own in-house child psychology unit to keep it on message, says Steven Tucker.

Was it really Noam? How can you tell with an online petition. Did Finian and Joan sign the online petution or did you contact them? Someone could post as Bertie. Hmmm, thats an idea.

"83. Bertie Ahern Fianna Fail "

There Bertie is now a supporter of the campaign.These online petitions are useless. You cannot trust them. I hope John and his variant of the Fourth International learns somethging from this.

The CWI are supporting P-SOL in the election against sell-out Lula. So you could add their TD (J. Higgins) and 4 Cllrs (M.Barry, R. Coppinger, C. Daly, M. Murphy) to list of supporters.

Helena Heloisa came third in the first round of Brazil's Presidential Election on October 1 - she got 6.85% of valid votes (6.575 million votes).
