urgh! do you have microsoft office picture? You can resize your images using the edit button and then post them back up? Perhaps a mod will resize
them for you?
All eyes are finally on Sydney. The APEC Summit is a big event and professionals/academics have said 'hold it somewhere else' because Sydney would
not cope with an emergency. And yet, what do the NSW and Fed Govt do? They cancel surgery for the entire week!

I find this hilarious, the only reason Sydney is the host of the summit is due to the only city in Aust that can provide 5 star hotels.
Isn't it funny that Parliament have granted a public holiday to coincide with the summit? They have also made sure that Public Servants are paid for
the allocated time off...not so with other employees under differing awards. Crap, crap.... and more crap.
Bush touched down in AU today...lucky Sydney people. Major distruptions to traffic. You know that whenever Bush is nearby, your network coverage
won't work? The majority of Sydney residents trying to use their phones to call home or child care agents to say that they are going to be late
because of the Bush delays won't be able to get through... no network coverage.
And when I was listening to the Parliamentary Debates regarding this very issue, ABC went off line for several minutes.
You see, Members of Parliament mouthing off on live air is a bit of a worry.
Cut the transmission!!!
Anyway, as for the protests, Police are in the process of taking the democratic right to court to prevent the Saturday protest. pfft...
