    Defence and foreign policy: It seems that defence and foreign policy is an area in which there\'s a large philosophical difference between the two parties. While Labor is talking about making some tweaks to education and Medicare, they\'re also proposing a major rethink of our relationship with the United States. Kevin Rudd, speaking on Triple J, spoke about a change in our way of thinking:
    Though Labour supports the alliance with the United States, we\'ve never seen it as meaning automatic compliance with everything the United States administration may dictate at any time.
    He gives the Kyoto Protocol and the International Criminal Court as specific examples. Everything else that Rudd says in the interview makes a lot of sense to me. It\'s available in MP3 format (2.8M).

    Howard, on the other hand, is just promising more of the same with regards to defence, security, and Iraq. It\'s a reasonably devisive issue, and I\'m sure he\'ll find both opposition and support for his status quo policy.
    What do you mean? The diaries box that used to be on the left hand side? Diaries get dumped to front page now along with articles. So if you enter by the front page you will a mix of diaries and articles.
    I see what\'s happening now - a while back I set my front page to Everything, which doesn\'t include diaries. I\'ve changed it back to Front Page and everything\'s sweet. But I like having the diaries down the side as well, it makes it quicker to access older stories. One other problem I\'ve noticed is that the time is out by fifteen hours. I have my timezone set to WAST/GMT+8, I posted the diary at 20:33, and it shows up as 11:33 tomorrow. Do you have control over the time on the server?
