As you are probably aware, marches are being held all across the UK in December for little Baby P!
Unfortunately a lot of people are unable to attend due to travel etc. but are still wanting to say their goodbyes and pay their respect to the poor little boy who was tortured to death at the hands of his mother, her boyfriend and another man.
Therefore marches are being organised across the UK see this site for details of these marches

Just noticed that google have chaged their favicon (the little icon that shows in the title/tab bar in Web browsers)
I’m not sure i like it, looks a bit boring and makes it harder for me to spot among all my open tabs, also looks naff both on a white and grey backround!
Probably google changing their branding or something or might just be doing it as a buzz creating exercise.
What do you think?

Ok so i read this article about the Xbox Live user whose gamertag was barred because it violated XBL policies (you can’t have a sexual term in your name, regardless of sexual orientation). The incriminating gamertag was “RichardGaywood”. I can’t help but think that Microsoft’s policy is a little flawed. I know they have to appease everyone who uses their service and I know that there are some incredibly sensitive people on this planet
Microsoft’s Stephen Toulouse referred to the XBL Terms of Use in explaining why the user “TheGAYERGamer” received a ban, stating:
“Gamertags are visible to everyone and it would be hard for me to defend to a parent of a young child who saw it that the name did not contain content of a sexual nature.”
Surely it’s only offensive to someone who knows what this word means, a young child surely wouldn’t find this offensive even if he/she knew what it meant they’d probably find it funny and have a giggle about it. I believe it’s the parents who are over sensitive about things like this. I am also aware that there are a number of homophobes who may find anything to do with the word “gay” offensive but try and remember that the word gay actually means happy among other non-sexual things
By all means report anything you believe to violate the policy to XBL but if, as in the Richard Gaywood example, the person in question can actually prove that this is his/her real and legal name, it should be allowed to remain as their Gamertag and the person who complained should be notified that this is the case.
What other names/words could Microsoft ban gamertags for containing?

i was just woken up by a loud boom, sounded a bit like thunder. my dogs went nuts outside so i know it wasn’t a dream or a figment of my imagination. I also heard what i believe to be the same loud rumble a few days ago, cant remember the day or time but it was earlier in the evening. If you have also heard this noise please comment stating the date/time and your location.
I’ve been playing poker online for a while now and the best one (for me anyway) is PKR. I have made a nice bit of money from it, not a ton of cash but a tidy sum.
PKR is easy to play and get to grips with even if you’ve never played before.
You don’t have to play for real money to begin with, you have the option to play for “play money” and the game-play is exactly the same as “real money”
If you want to check it out for yourself click the image on the right or click here
If you’re new to poker or just want to know a bit more about the game PKR has some good guides or check out the Gambling-Addict site for Poker Info and Poker Gameplay Rules as well as some handy poker hand cards to cut out and keep to hand.
