During the 2004 Republican National Convention in New York City over 1800 people were arrested and sent to a detention centre at Pier 57.
While people were searched numerous times, pictures and video of the event were able to surface on the internet.
To view pictures and video go to The Memory Hole

YAY for Worms
Cast you're vote if you must on October 9 but the decision has been made, the worm has spoken. Latham has come out victorious according to channel 9's worm during the only televised debate of the campaign on 'Sixty Minutes'.
As you all know, I am all for a Labor victory in October but I don't think the worm is very reliable. All it takes is a few people to always agree with Latham when he's speaking and disagree with Howard when it's his turn. Besides the worm has only got it right 51% of the time.
The debate went on for over an hour, nothing new was said and the environment was never mentioned. You could call it an add maybe but never a debate!
At least Chaser Decides starts on the 23rd.

Media make overs
I just visited the Australian News site News.com.au to find the banner AUSTRALIA DECIDES 2004: Campaign on hold | Full coverage.
Full coverage? Of what? Isn't the campaign on hold? I find its just like watching a Test match listening to Richie Benaud waiting for the rain to stop.
"Yes were here at Parliament house on a day that Australia will never forget. It's day fifteen and the Liberal party is 2 for 67, unfortunately Labor still haven't had a chance at the bat but all that may change on Sunday."
Mark Taylor adds his two cents, "Yes Sunday looks to be a real nose breaker with the two captains tipped to step onto the pitch in a showdown that could change the shape of the match, which brings me to today's poll. Do you think the worm has a place in television debating? Call 1902 PACKER RULES and we will have those results for you a little later on. Don't forget, every caller goes into the draw to win this fantastic block mount picture of the Liberal squad from 2001, autographed by all the front benchers!"
"Yes what a marvelous prize that it! Great for the games room or above the T.V! Infact I think that would suit any room in the house"
"Yes your not wrong there Richie! I have one in my bedroom next too my framed picture of Kerry Packer."
"Marvelous!"
