2010 Olympic Security Committee?

Last time I heard we were having the Olympics in London, whats with last minute change of plans?

And its nice to see it is French so should have a built in white flag in the event of any military emergency. In all seriousness though what happened to Obama's buy American, I suppose could be designed before that.

My girlfriend works in recruitment and acutally they find the agency model works pretty well (she is not fat and neither is she a slag but thanks for the generalisation). They get to recruit with their name and somebody else does all the paperwork, and legal mumbo jumbo.

And anyway when I got my current role I got this one offered and another through an agency so both ways work, so lets not say that whatever you say is right eh?

I remember being clearly told leaking any documents that may have been any classification in the past would result in instant dismissal.

I saw alot of stuff being sent between MoD people and memory sticks being touted around that had been plugged all over the place. In fact a number of squaddies were suprised and dismayed to see we blocked use of those vital tools of the trade!

Home Office kicks ID cards into touch

Oh if only this could happen

This of all the shiny new Skynet projects we could build with that.

Israel to test ducted-fan robot air jeep 'within two months'

GeorgeTuk

A real advantage?

Its really difficult to see what true advantage this could have over the traditional helicopter other than straight line speed.
