Formé en février 2005, Operation Blockhead est un groupe de Hard-Rock de la région de Châtel-St-Denis (FR).
Alors qu'ils ont tous entre 14 et 17 ans, 4 adolescents rebelles décident de former un groupe de rock du nom de Operation Blockhead, en février 2005.
A la base, la formation ne devait durer que 2 concerts privés, mais vu qu'ils décrochèrent un concert public, alors qu'ils répétaient a l'extérieur, le groupe décida de continuer sur cette lancée en se produisant avec des reprises dans différents bars et festivals de la région.
Laissant de coté les reprises pour les compositions, le groupe sort son premier CD/Demo (5 titres) en septembre 2008.
Le 14 janvier 2009, Operation Blockhead fait apparition sur la Radio Kaiseregg (www.kaiseregg.ch) avec un interview et la présentation des 5 titres du CD/Demo.
En février 2010 sort le premier album du groupe, nommé "Wanted" (13 titres). Le groupe continue à se produire sur diverses scènes, et a même l'opportunité d'ouvrir pour CS/SC, groupe actuel de Chris Slade (ex-AC/DC).
En décembre 2010, Mr. Muzzy quitte le groupe pour se consacrer à son avenir professionnel, et joue ainsi son dernier concert avec Operation Blockhead le 11 décembre 2010. Les 3 autres membres décident de continuer l'aventure ainsi, sans nouveau guitariste, et d'ainsi prendre une nouvelle tournure musicale pour le prochain album, sur lequel il se mettent à travailler dès janvier 2011.
Début 2012, le groupe entre en studio pour enregistrer son deuxième album, "The Failed Race for Success", qui paraîtra le 13 octobre 2012.

As the annual Conservative Party Conference comes to a close, Greater Manchester Police would like to thank attendees, the people of Greater Manchester, and visitors, for another successful and peaceful policing operation.
This multi-agency security operation, codenamed Operation Protector, has been months in the planning and saw thousands of extra people enter the city to attend the event, all of which passed without incident.
Sunday 1 October was the main day for protests, with thousands of protestors marching through the city, and attending a rally. Despite the typical Mancunian weather, spirits were high, and the events went ahead without incident, coming to a peaceful conclusion.
Whilst unrelated to the event, a number of proactive arrests were made in the city centre for a range of offences including driving whilst under the influence of drugs, shop lifting, and a man who was wanted for assault, demonstrating it was business as usual for many officers on the ground.
Assistant Chief Constable Chris Sykes, Gold Commander for the event, said: “Over the past four days, we’ve seen more than ten thousand delegates and visitors come to our city, supporting local businesses and the local economy; it is testament to Manchester being an iconic city for major events.
“As expected, and as in previous years, there were a number of protests throughout the period – notably on Sunday 1 October, which saw around 3,000 people march through the city.
“Security operations of this scale are always complex and require a high degree of multiagency work. With our partners, we have worked tirelessly to protect delegates, enable protests, and keep our city safe, and I am proud to hear such positive feedback about our staff who have performed their duties to the highest of standards.
“And finally, I would like to thank those who live, work or were visiting Manchester during this busy period for their patience whilst our operation was in place.”

Old and corroded Soviet military equipment lays across the Panjshir Province of Afghanistan on Jan. 11, 2010. The tanks, trucks and artillery cannons are leftover of the Soviet Invasion of Afghanistan in the 1980s. This military machinery can be found in graveyards all across the province and has become war trophies to local Afghans, specially a group of Mujahedeen fighters that fought the Russian military. Between 1980 and 1985, the Soviet military launched nine offensives into the Panjshir Valley to root out the Afghan guerrillas. (U.S. Army photo by Sgt. Teddy Wade/Released)

Apparently 'best practice' can minimise the risk of environmental damage during harvesting operations on soft ground and prevent damage to forest soils and slope erosion. I suspect at this location the contractors have fallen someway short of best practice.
I failed to find any research on how many years it takes forest soils to recover from poorly implemented mechanised harvesting operations.

Operation Shocktober on October 18th 2008 was the ninth straight month of peaceful global protests against the scientology cult. The theme was zombies, to coincide with Halloween and highlight the many mysterious deaths and suicides of cult members.
All faces of those unmasked are blurred to protect them from the cult's "Fair Game" policy of harassing it's critics. These are brave people of all ages and walks of life, standing shoulder to shoulder with ex-Scientologists to bring the truth TO YOU.
