i was wondering how you felt when you heard about the passing of michael jackson?
did you even like him?
and what role do you think he played in the world?
for me he has been inspiration,the great songs to sing,his wacky sense of dress always intrigued me, and something to base your dance moves on. it was always the challenge to try and do the moonwalk with my mates. still have yet to master it. or the lean he does in smooth criminal. i know you can do it coz i know people who do it, but for me it generally involves falling on the floor alot.
just want to know your thoughts on the passing of a great artist, singer, song writer, dancer, entertainer and peace activist.
Women in same-sex relationships can now register both their names on the birth certificate of a child conceived as a result of fertility treatment.
Female couples not in a civil partnership but receiving fertility treatment may also both be registered.
The law change applies to female couples in England and Wales who were having fertility treatment on or after 6 April 2009.
Previously, the mother's female partner could not be registered as a parent.
But the change in the law confers legal parenthood on the mother's female partner.

When officers remove goods, they leave a note in the car telling the owner that they can retrieve their possessions from Twickenham police station.
The initiative has been launched in an area where theft from cars has been rife.
A Saudi Arabian father forced his 10-year-old daughter to return to her 80-year-old husband Sunday, after she was found hiding at the home of her aunt for 10 days, Arab News reported.
