Bishita, the Taiwanese girl, congrats inadeer. Ilaahey guurkaaga kii waara oo lagu kheyro ha ka dhigo. Wiil iyo caano walaashiis. Aamiin. Hope to see you after the honeymoon. Farah, I know that you know what I know you know.

I agree with Lazy. Jerry is probably another "sicko". Kramer went crazy. Sad.

Leading nations sign $12.8bn deal to develop fusion reactor By Christine Ollivier, Paris NATIONS representing half the world’s population signed a long-awaited, $12.8 billion pact yesterday for a nuclear fusion reactor that could revolutionise global energy use for future generations. The ITER project by the United States, the European Union, China, India, Russia, Japan and South Korea will attempt to combat global warming by harnessing the fusion process that runs the sun, creating an alternative to polluting fossil fuels. But the project is still only experimental and will take decades to get going — and environmental groups say it may not even work. French President Jacques Chirac, who hosted the signing at the Elysee Palace in Paris, praised the attempt to “tame solar fire to meet the challenge of ecological energy”. ‘‘The growing shortage of resources and the battle against global warming demand a revolution in our ways of production and consumption,’’ Chirac said. ‘‘We have the duty to start research that will prepare energy solutions for our descendants.’’ Raymond Orbach of the US Department of Energy said: “This energy represents the hope of the world.” Fusion reproduces the sun’s power source and produces no greenhouse gas emissions and only low levels of radioactive waste. The International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor will be built in Cadarache in the southern French region of Provence. It is expected to create about 10,000 jobs and take about eight years to build. Some 400 scientists from around the world would operate the reactor, and officials hope to set up a demonstration power plant in Cadarache around 2040. If it works, only then could the energy be made commercially available. Officials involved in the project say 10%-20% of the world’s energy could come from fusion by the end of the century. The EU will pay 50% of the cost to build the experimental reactor, with the six other parties contributing 10% each. Fusion, which powers stars, involves colliding atoms at extremely high temperatures and pressure inside a reactor. When the atoms fuse into a plasma they release energy that can be harnessed to generate electricity. While fossil fuels will run short, the reactor would run on an isotope of hydrogen, a virtually endless fuel source that can be extracted from water. While Chirac praised the international cooperation that led to the project, it has faced multiple delays because of internal disagreements — over the choice of the site, financing and reactor design. Environmental activists, who generally oppose nuclear power, have argued that the project is too costly and would divert attention from current efforts to fight global warming.

Inaa Lillaahi wa innaa Ileyhi Rajicuun It was just yesterday that I posted the video about the marxuum. Aduunkan waa la wada socdaa. Ilaahay ha u naxariisto dambigiisina ha dhaafo.

Surprisingly this is a good quality video considering the age of the video. See it for yourself.

France24 is set to take on CNN, BBC and Aljazeera. A new English channel with a "French perspective" is set to go on the air waves on December 6. Here is a trailer: France Vinght-Quatre France 24 to challenge Anglo-Saxon views, says chief Web posted at: 11/1/2006 7:36:33 Source ::: AFP PARIS -- A round-the-clock international news channel France is to launch in December will challenge the “Anglo-Saxon” views spread by market leaders BBC and CNN by relying on “French values”, the network’s chief said yesterday. France 24, as the network is called, will start broadcasting in English and French on the Internet on December 6 and then via satellite two days later, its chairman and chief executive, Alain de Pouzilhac, told Le Figaro newspaper. Like its British and US rivals, it is homing in on “opinion leaders” around the world by dishing up a diet of news, features and discussion. But those viewers, Pouzilhac claimed, have become increasingly “sceptical of the world vision offered by the Anglo-Saxons like BBC World and CNN International.” Instead, he asserted, they “are looking for contradictory opinions — which is what France 24 is proposing by relying on French values.” He did not define what those values were in the interview, beyond saying that the channel would highlight “diversity (and)... confrontation, without forgetting the culture and French art of living.” Financed to the tune of 80 million euros (100 million dollars) a year by the state and run as a joint operation between France’s top commercial and top public national TV networks, France 24 will start out as a minnow to the BBC or CNN, both of which have built up global networks and enjoy established reputations. BBC World, the privately financed international arm of Britain’s public broadcaster, has 250 staff and an undisclosed budget. CNN’s US and international divisions employ 4,000 people and revenues of $860m (730 million euros). Additionally, other players have entered the market, most notably the Arab network Al Jazeera, which has just started an English-language service.

I think the ICU should reimburse the affected families for now and warn everyone that there won't be any compensation for anyone defying this law in the future. They should have been warned.

Warmoog, Turki seems to have a slight "jubba" accent (whatever that means) on the latest audio clip. I don't know if you noticed that as well. Or is it just me? I concluded it was just a rumour as well. The good Sheikh is doing fine.

I didn't see anything different from other networks except this one has more boring programs. What a BS!! *goes off to cancel subscription*

This argument is good for the movie. Publicity is what it needs most. Keep it going guys.

^^lol@every body dance now. We had a governor in Minnesota who claimed he was a navy seal and I don't know if that was ever confirmed. Maybe Jesse wasn't a navy seal after all. These guys do train hard and the graduates are considered to be the best of the best.

Cool. :cool: :cool:

Sheikh Xasan Turki was not killed in the Buu'aale fighting as was reported by some Somali sites. He is actually in Dhoobley now. Here is an interview he gave to a Somali site on Nov 13, 2006. Xasan Turki Talks

Desperate dudes.

What is the ICU's objective here in this latest round of attacks?

Great news.

flesh eating bacteria? Subhanallah.

"6. Be humble: It is absolutely necessary to stay away from kibr in any form. Especially in this case, it is impossible to gain any beneficial knowledge without humility. It is said, “Humility is for the one from whom knowledge is learnt” so it is essential that especially with your teachers, and fellow pupils you adopt a humble attitude. " Jizakalah.

This is a great topic for this women forum. It is regrettable our sister didn't receive much help.

^^ lol@download it.

Odeyaasha are having fun indeed.
