The GlovePIE forum is malfunctioning and is banning everyone as spammers, including me. I apologise, and I assure you, I did not ban anyone. I will attempt to fix it.

In the meantime, don’t forget to visit my Xbox Project Natal Blog which has been updated with lots of new information coming out of E3, and will be updated more over the next few days.

The Israeli Defence Force this afternoon (Australian time) launched an assault on the Gaza Aid flotilla of eight ships, which were carrying 10,000 tonnes of aid for Gaza, in the hope of delivering it to the people there and in so doing breaking the 3 years long siege imposed by the Israeli government. The ships were carrying 800 activists, politicians and journalists from more than 40 countries. This includes Australia’s Sydney Morning Herald journalist, Paul McGeough and photographer Kate Geraghty.

The assault was made by armed troops who boarded the ships by descending from helicopters, then opened fire on the aid workers. The IDF have killed up to 19 of these peace activists, and wounded up to 80. All contact has been lost with Paul McGeough and Kate Geraghty.

There will be protests around the world throughout the next few days, so I recommend doing an internet search for what is happening in your city.
