Oddly Enough Global NewsLove story....Ed and Carolyn met while on a singles cruise and Ed fell head over

heels for her. When they discovered they lived in the same city only

a few miles apart Ed was ecstatic. He immediately started asking her

out when they got home.

Within a couple of weeks, Ed had taken Carolyn to dance clubs,

restaurants, concerts, movies, and museums. Ed became convincedthat Carolyn was indeed his soul mate and true love. Every dateseemed better than the last.

On the one-month anniversary of their first dinner on the cruise

ship, Ed took Carolyn to a fine restaurant. While having cocktails and

waiting for their salad, Ed said, "I guess you can tell I'm very much

in love with you. I'd like a little serious talk before our relationshipcontinues to the next stage. So, before I get a box out of my jacket

and ask you a life changing question, it's only fair to warn you, I'm a

total golf nut. I play golf, I read about golf, I watch golf on TV. In

short, I eat, sleep, and breathe golf. If that's going to be a problem forus, you'd better say so now!"

Carolyn took a deep breath and responded, "Ed, that certainly won't

be a problem. I love you as you are and I love golf too; but, sincewe're being totally honest with each other, you need to know that for

the last five years I've been a hooker." Ed said, "I bet it's because

you're not keeping your wrists straight when you hit the ball."

LONDON (Reuters) - Forget the diamond as big as the Ritz. This

one's bigger than planet Earth. Orbiting a star that is visible to the

naked eye, astronomers have discovered a planet twice the size of

our own made largely out of diamond.

A diamond bigger than Earth?

And finally, Asil Nadiris enjoying the delights

of Belmarsh Prison atthe expense of British

taxpayers.

The 10,000GBP permonth cost of

Belmarsh is somewhat

less than the 23,000GBP per month he paidin rent for the Mayfairhouse where he stayed

during the trial.

Last month he told theOld Bailey that he is

broke, and cannot payback any of the 150m+

GBP that he stole.

This month we have a few new members, and oneor two potential members attending the lunch forinspection. We also want to discuss the subjectof charitable giving, and ask your feedback oncharities you consider as potential recipients offunds from CADS.

We may also have the opportunity to hold a CADS

dinner on the Elfin on the 17th November, after she has

landed Sinter Klaas and his 100 assistants on Zaandam

Quay. Let me know if you would like to attend such a

function.

Speaking of which...

CADS is looking for good speaker suggestions for next

year, so please let me know who you would like to hear,

and also if you would prefer to have some lunches with

no speakers where we can just chat amongst ourselves.

Unidentified Flying Al Qaeda (UFAQ)

As we go to press, the good news has arrived that HMG is blockingthe extradition of Gary McKinnon to the USA. The grounds arethat he is ill, which is nonsense, but the decision is just.

McKinnon is a computer whizz with Aspergers Syndrome whose

hobby is searching for UFOs. Because he believed that the US govern-

ment was covering up contacts they had made with aliens, he used

his Dell home computer to hack into the US Dept of Defense and ac-

cess their emails and documents. When he found nothing there, hehacked into NASA and did the same thing there. USG are so embar-

rassed they want to lock him up, despite the UK courts deciding he

had no case to answer. Of course the real guys in the dock should be

the idiots who left the doors open at DoD and NASA, but that wont

happen.

HMG should recruit Mr McKinnon to work at the Signals Intelligence

Cryptology Unit. Just tell him that Al Qaeda members are aliens, and

then give him a computer and ask him to locate them!

Fabulous Ignorance

This week the EU won the Nobel Peace Prize.

Andrew Roberts summed up my feelings in his

piece published by Bloomberg:

The fabulous ignorance necessary to pass

over the organization that in reality brought

peace to the European continent for the past

six decades -- the North Atlantic Treaty

Organization -- and to reward instead a

soulless, corrupt, bullying, glorified customs

union with pretensions to superpower, beggars

belief They can use the 1m USD prize to pay

for an independent audit - it has been well over

a decade since the EUs appointed auditors have

been able to sign off on their accounts.

Hacking Hell!

There have been 23 further arrests in Londonthis month in connection with the phone

hacking scandal, including military personnel,

civil servants, and serving police officers.
