^I don't think that's right. It says the plane landed in Kismayo, not crashed off the coast of Kaambooni. Kidding, as the boys would say

Had a look at the website above out of curiosity and found that just coz am a female am worth $65,000 less than a male :eek: Now that isn't fair.. is it? wot do my SOL sisters think??!! Rose, they provide an explanation. Women earn about 70 cents for every $1 a man earns, so your worth as a measure of your earning potential over a lifetime would be less. I think they do the same for race, height and weight. It's a tough world for a fat and short black woman I tell ya, I don't know how I managed to avoid being valued in the negatives

Thank you, Taliban. That was good for one honest chortle. I think SOLers should all chip in to send our dour friend DVDs of Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.

Originally posted by ThePoint: ^Some societies have a prediliction for suicide for a host of reasons - loss of face/honour and the prospect of shame and ignobility. The Japanese by all accounts are leaders in this. Talk about a selfish, self-centred, short-sighted, cowardly act! I have absolutely no sympathy for these folks - only for their loved ones who have to deal with the devastation. Well, it's all relative, isn't it? In Japan one would be considered selfish for hanging on to life when clearly the far more courageous and noble thing would be to take your life and save your family the shame and ignomy. Taliban The risk factors for suicide and "martyrdom operations" are probably the same: youth, pressure from others, lack of other options (or being led to believe that), etc. Strapping on a bomb and blowing yourself up in a city bus is NOT a rational military decision.

This site has a very good collection of music from Africa and world music in general. They also have this Free Song feature if you register with their site, you can download a free single every week. Good way to discover new artists. I discovered South African musician Zola there. As for Mali, Tinariwen, Ali Farka Toure, and Wassoulou singers like Oumou Sangare and Sali Sidibe are awesome.

Sorry, you do not have permission to vote in this poll. Definitely rigged.

I saw a video on YouTube about Web 2.0

Mine's San from Princess Mononoke. I wanted this one, but it doesn't miniaturize very well

Wow, all these tips are making me wanna experiment. But does make up expire? Puuja, if it turned out that it WAS was against the law for them to refuse you service, would you go back and force them to do your hair? And if it came out a mess , would you sue them?

Originally posted by Taliban: Well, I did a little bit investigation at YouTube. I briefly saw Yusuf's 2006 Nobel Concert, in which semi-nude women were announcing Yusuf. Uh uh.

E-passport? Do they have e-applications available?

Didn't Yusuf Islam release a pop album recently? I thought you'd deplore that "secular" act, Taliban.

And wouldn't that be just like a woman? Cara, Do you think women are more susceptible to adulation? I am thinking your question is meant to trick me into being myself and say definitely that is being a woman I think my work here is done

How do you translate "pressure", as in "you should only feel a little pressure during this medical procedure"? Thanks.

So, 1-2 weeks before your period, then cramps and moodswings for 1 week. Does that mean you're only rational and stable for 1 week a month?

LOL. It's a little funny.

Holy cow. That was a dissertation MKA, and like all dissertations, probably no one read it

^Looks like a conceptual drawing, looking north from the island of Perim towards mainland Yemen. Northerner, maybe a few ducks and some canoes, but no big rigs I think.

My experience is 6 days. Divide by 2 and subtract 1 to account for gender differences
