23AprYou use IE…*points and laughs*

Way more people should use Mozilla.

I’ve been using mozilla on windows for about a year and on other operating systems even longer and I have yet to read of an exploit or come across any reason that would make me want to go back to IE. It’s safer then IE and it was WAY more featuers and it’s actually developed and maintained by people I can trust. It’s an open source project meaning If I ever feel the need to know what it does, I can do so by reading the source code.

firefoxWith features like built-in pop-up blocker, tabbed browsing and actually showing websites like they should be shown, I honestly don’t know why people blindly follow Microsoft and STILL use IE. Use Mozilla or if don’t want the entire suite then just use FireFox. Let me put it this way: The only time I use IE, is when I read about a new IE exploit and want to test it for a laugh. Just looking at the access logs on this site (20 unique visitors a day) I can say that at least 60% of the IE users have some kind of IE spyware on their machines. So the next time you get spam or wonder where they get your email address from, just think about all the spyware on your computers.
Email theft is big business…not a conspiracy theory.

23AprPentagon fury at war dead photos

The Pentagon has reacted angrily to the publication on US websites of photos of America’s war dead arriving home.

Defence officials had banned publicity of the return of bodies from Iraq, but were forced to release images after a freedom-of-information court action.

Photos of coffins at the main military mortuary appeared on the web, prompting a Pentagon information crackdown.

Meanwhile, a US cargo worker has been fired after her photo of flag-draped coffins was used by a US newspaper.

Tami Silicio, 50, was dismissed by military contractor Maytag Aircraft Corp after she sent the photo to a friend who, with her permission, gave it to The Seattle Times for publication.

Since the beginning of the war, the media has been banned from Dover Air Force base in Delaware - the US military’s largest mortuary - where the coffins of American soldiers have been arriving.

But photographs of flag-draped coffins were released last week to activist Russ Kick, who filed a Freedom of Information Act request to receive the images.

23AprCannes Picks Michael Moore’s Fahrenheit 911

(from michaelmoore.com)

Friends,

I just got word that my new film, “Fahrenheit 911,” has been selected by the Cannes Film Festival to premiere there in competition next month!

This is only the second time in the last 48 years that a documentary has been chosen to be in the main competition (the first being “Bowling for Columbine” in 2002). The non-fiction film revolution rolls on!

I am deeply honored by this announcement, considering it comes from our mortal enemy, the French.

This year’s jury in Cannes is headed by Quentin Tarantino and also includes director Jerry Schatzberg, Kathleen Turner, Tilda Swinton and others.

“Fahrenheit 911″ will be in theaters across the U.S. (and the rest of the world) this summer. More info, gossip and all the juicy details to follow…

Thanks everyone for your support.

Michael Moore
