And the winner is......

published by Naz on 2 December, 2008 - 16:29

Salaams,

They are holding a draw at my local bureau where I work. The winner gets a Whitakers Almanack book. I must admit initially I did not know what kind of book it was :oops: until my manager explained its contents. I decided to further research it on the net and came across this website (I was taken back by the Earth clock. Look at the Earth clock, aint it cool) Whitakers Almanac

The draw in itself is free, no money required, just stick your name and they pick one from a hat. The name they pick out will get the book. I really want to stand a chance of winning the book (I dont want to pay £45) but before I enter I need to know would this be a form of gambling?

United v City

published by Naz on 30 November, 2008 - 19:33

Salaams,
Im surprised no one has put this up.
Did anyone watch it?

Citys performance was appalling, they were all over the place and never seem to get control of the ball.

Those of you that watched it what do you think about Ronaldo getting sent off? He didnt do himself any favours by teasing the ref when he got a yellow card.
I think the ref was pretty harsh on him. I cant stand the guy but you got to feel for him.

Any other comments?

The age of 'celebrity terrorism'

The age of 'celebrity terrorism'

Quite apart from the scores murdered and the hundreds injured, what the Mumbai terrorists really wanted was an exaggerated - and preferably extreme - reaction on the part of governments, the media and public opinion.

In these terms, the attackers received as much attention as they could possibly have hoped for, and the Mumbai outrage can only be described as a very significant terrorist success.

The attack received saturation coverage in the world's media from the outset.

Unanswered questions

So the speculative - and often tendentious - questioning began.
