South Sudan: A Genocide We Can Stop

by

Dear friends,


Women and children pulled from schools and hospitals and killed by the roadside, hate propaganda filling the airwaves - Rwanda 20 years ago? This is happening right now in South Sudan, and we have the power to help stop it.

Two men are to blame: President Salva Kiir and his former deputy Riek Machar. Locked in a bitter power struggle, both are cynically stoking tensions between ethnic groups that have lived peacefully together for decades. Both men have assets and family abroad. If we hit Kiir and Machar where it hurts -- their wallets -- we can stop this nightmare from spiraling into genocide.

Joshua Bonehill's Hunger Strike: Another Porky From The Self-Proclaimed New Messiah? [Updated]

Joshua Bonehill's Hunger Strike: Another Porky From The Self-Proclaimed New Messiah?

When it comes to Joshua Bonehill's claims on the net, it's generally rather difficult to believe that they have actually any truth in them... I mean, he is not exactly known for his truthfulness, is he?


So, when I saw his recent post announcing that he was starting a 40 days and 40 nights hunger strike today, I couldn't but be slightly sceptical about the whole affair...

What Historical Era Do I Belong In?

by


"Have you ever felt that you could have had more fun if you've lived in a different era? Maybe have grand snow fights in the Ice Age or wear the dresses of the Victorian Era? it's time to find out where you really belong"
Oi! Who said "in the stone age"?

I'm actually very pleased with the results for that quiz... I love technology too much to be told that I belong in a time where there was no television or, even worse, no internet (the fact that I've managed to cope all these years before the internet was invented still amazes me).


So, yes, that was a good result... even so I kind of expected a historical era that I had already been in. But, hey, at least the one I've got has plenty of new technology to play with. Cool!


My Result




"Command: Greetings. Message: We are happy to meet you. here's an endless supply of money and a card for the new Alien Gym. You are going to love the future!"
Never mind the gym, bring my flying car and tell me where the holodeck is!

If you fancy having a go at this fun quiz, you can click on here to get to it, or, if you don't mind waiting a little bit, you can play straight from here (it should appear below in a few more seconds). But, wherever you do that quiz, let us know what your result is, okay? Thanks in advance.

UK: London Looks To Give Voice To Muted Buskers

by
LONDON (AFP) ― Concerned that London’s seasoned street musicians are being silenced by excessive regulation, mayor Boris Johnson is leading calls for the buskers’ voices, and guitars, to be heard again.

Camden Town in north London, with its punks and a main street bristling with “alternative” shops, has long been a favored destination for young visitors. But several months ago, buskers were ordered to silence their instruments by 9 p.m.

Some fear that in bowing to the residents’ complaints about noise, Camden has surrendered a slice of its identity.
