Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

Here's another one for your consideration http://www.roadjunky.com/guide/moving-abroad-the-emigration-guide/where-to-emigrate/

If you want a definition of racism then I can only give examples. I often hear comments about 'blacks' as a general term. I have heard similar things said and the target would be 'Jews', 'pakis', 'muslims' etc. I would regard it as making general derogatory comments about a racial or ethnic group.

Your sitting on the fence Hays.


What about the racism COMING THE OTHER WAY......?

EG, you go into a shop and the two black people speaking go from English to their Native toung looking at you and taking the -iss.

The most ignorant and racist ACTS going.

I agree. That is racism as well. It is not COMING NG THE OTHER WAY. It is just racism.

If they're talking in their own tongue, how would you know whether they were taking the piss or not? And, seeing as you're clearly incapable of speaking English, Fishfinger, it's highly unlikely that you'd be able to speak their language to be sure.

Are you good at baiting your hooks when you go fishing?

Following picture began circulating in November. People are saying it should be "The Picture of the Year," or perhaps, "Picture of the Decade." It won't be. In fact, unless you obtained a copy of the U.S. paper which published it, you probably would never have seen it.

You might well shed an emotional tear when you read the story associated with it.



The picture is that of a 21-week-old unborn baby named Samuel Alexander Armas, who is being operated on by surgeon named Joseph Bruner. The baby was diagnosed with spina bifida and would not survive if removed from his mother's womb.

Little Samuel's mother, Julie Armas, is an obstetrics nurse in Atlanta. She knew of Dr. Bruner's remarkable surgical procedure. Practicing at Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville, he performs these special operations while the baby is still in the womb.

During the procedure, the doctor removes the uterus via C-section and makes a small incision to operate on the baby.

As Dr. Bruner completed the surgery on Samuel, the little guy reached his tiny, but fully developed hand through the incision and firmly grasped the surgeon's finger. Dr. Bruner was reported as saying that when his finger was grasped, it was the most emotional moment of his life, and that for an instant during the procedure he was just frozen, totally immobile.

The photograph captures this amazing event with perfect clarity. The editors titled the picture, "Hand of Hope.

Little Samuel's mother said they "wept for days" when they saw the picture. She said, "The photo reminds us pregnancy isn't about disability or an illness, it's about a little person"

Haystack,

I'm pretty good at baiting my hooks when I go muppeting. :o)

Hilary
Is that a common sport in your neck of the woods?

On the contrary, Haystack. It requires an innate knowledge of where to find the biggest muppets.

Your in the right place here then hils! :O)
