Guardian: How to deal with the American goliath - The United States is not going to listen to lectures from Europe about American responsibilities. Not until Europe demonstrates a much greater willingness to start addressing its own responsibilities.

Guardian: Blair and Bush to plot war on Iraq - Saddam is attempting to amass rudimentary nuclear capabilities and is also investigating a way to launch 'dirty' nuclear bombs - unsophisticated devices which would nevertheless wreak havoc if ever used.

 

Western intelligence services also believe Saddam is developing biological and chemical devices which could kill and maim tens of thousands of people.

xManilaBloggerBridge Tool: a variation on Dave Winer's ManilaBloggerBridge this allows for and configures mirroring to multiple (x) Manila sites, be they news items or vanila Manila sites.

 

OK, I've got it working. Next is to bed it in a little, and to figure out the updating of this tool, along with the message centre thing.

 

There's more to do, like templates and callbacks. For instance I want to take out double returns in vanilla Manila sites (\r\r) and replace them with \r<p>&nbsp;</p> I find I'm always putting double returns it an item, just for readability. But looking at the .rss, each paragraph becomes an item. So, I want to join up paragraphs, to become a single item, even though it be blog it looks like double returned paragraph spacing.

 

Not only but also. On my Mac, I get the Victoria voice telling me what happened. I think I'd like to build more of these announcements in to the events.
