Frankly, I could care less, but in the interests of my readers, I present this from the Taipei Times:

Panic briefly gripped Windsor after Prince Charles postponed his wedding by 24 hours to Saturday but organizers and hoteliers managed to juggle their plans and now expect an even busier day.

Britain's future king and his partner Camilla Parker Bowles altered the date Monday to enable Charles to attend the funeral of Pope John Paul II on Friday....

[B]usiness at souvenir shops boomed as an array of Charles and Camilla memorabilia from mugs to tea towels, emblazoned with the initial wedding date of April 8, 2005, became instant collectors' items.

And the weekend date will enable more of the public to travel to Windsor to catch a glimpse the nuptials to the delight of local restaurants and bars.

News of the change "was a bit of a shock," said Richard Varney, the general manager of Ye Harte and Garter Hotel, which is located opposite Windsor Castle, where Charles, 56, and Parker Bowles, 57, will receive a blessing and hold a reception after taking their vows at the Guildhall....

The new fixture opened up the possibility of even larger crowds flocking to Windsor, said White, who had previously predicted a turnout of at least 10,000 despite a wave of criticism thrown up by the two divorcees' marriage.


Ten thousand people flocking to this thing. It's like a bunch of people flocking to see a car crash. Oops...poor choice of words, I guess.

In which we enter the alternative universe in which police always believe dreadlocked individuals

I previously raised the question about whether Interference Inc. was prompt in letting the authorities know that the so-called bombs in Boston weren't bombs. Now a new question has been raised - was Peter Berdovsky prompt in letting Interference Inc. know that the guerilla marketing campaign had gone sour? And should he have informed the on-scene officers that there was nothing to worry about? The issue was raised because Berdovsky videotaped police at a (supposed) bomb site. This is what the Associated Press said : One of the men criminally charged after placing blinking cartoon advertisements around the city videotaped a police bomb squad removing one of the electronic devices, but did not tell the officers the object was harmless. Surveillance cameras caught 27-year-old Peter Berdovsky videotaping officers removing what they thought was a possible bomb. But Walter Prince , Berdovsky's new layer (replacing semi-guardian Michael Rich ), puts a different spin on the whol...
