Daar is 'n baie interessante artikel in die Observer vandag oor die
boek deur Anthony Sampson (Hy het Mandela se biografie geskryf) "Who
runs this place" "An anatomy of Britain in the 21st century". Dit gaan
oor die afgang van die ou "Establisment" in Engeland en die invloed
van die ou kolonies en immigrante (ook Suid-Afrikaners) en veral
Skotte. Ek stem nie met al sy gevolgtrekkings saam nie, ek dink daar
is 'n paar dinge wat buite rekening gelaat word, (maar dit is net 'n
uitreksel, mens sou seker die hele boek moet lees om regverdig te
wees), dit is egter steeds interessant.

Official Complaint Made For Prostitute Not Doing Her Best
Adrian Lonut Craciunoiu of Romania filed a complaint with the
consumer protection officials after receiving poor services from a
prostitute.
He went on to say "She didn't do her best and even scratched me
because she missed some of her teeth."
The consumer protection authority admitted it was the strangest
complaint they have ever received. "This case is a little bit
difficult because prostitution is illegal in Romania. But I am going
to talk to the police and look for a way to solve it."

No, it is a self-centered, greedy, obnoxious and shameful
culture. When I came to the United States my command of
the Englisch language was not the best. I respected the
fact that I was a guest, a foreigner, in another country. The
Americans had different customs, spoke their own language.
I studied, adapted, learned and RESPECTED them. Now I
am American by having EARNED the privlige and honour.
I respect all different cultures, habits, beliefs, languages
and customs of others. Sadly, many people do not.

Daar was ook 'n artikel oor die Bush Sr / Carlyle storie in die Observer
hier laas jaar. Daar is allerhande interessante konneksies, soos
"Carlyle has a glittering array of ex-politicians and big league bankers on
its board. Former secretary of state James Baker is managing director while
ex-secretary of defence Frank Carlucci is chairman. George Bush senior is an
adviser. John Major heads up its European operations. To give the conspiracy
theorists plenty of ammunition, US newspapers have also highlighted the fact
that current Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld was a wrestling partner of
Carlucci's at Princeton and the two have remained close friends ever since"
Aan die een kant dink mens dat sameswering teoriee so funksioneer (dit maak
konnekies tussen dinge, en gee dit dan 'n spesifieke interpretasie), maar
dan alle sameswering teoriee is nie noodwendig verkeerd nie. En dat die
Carlyle groep baie goed doen uit wereld konflik, is seker.
Nog 'n aanhaling uit die artikel:
"Carlyle - whose high-profile investors include George Soros and Saudi
Arabia's Prince Alwaleed bin Talal - refutes suggestions it profits from
war. Co-founder William Conway even went on record saying 'no one wants to
be a beneficiary of 11 September.'
This may be true, but unfortunately for the Carlyle Group its investments
are beneficiaries of this new era of multilateral conflict. Indeed, a case
can be made that even those companies Carlyle wouldn't class as defence
investments - and which aren't examined by Briody - have benefited.
Last month it bought CSX Lines, an ocean carrier firm that specialises in
shipping heavy equipment. One of its biggest customers is the US military.
Late last year it bought Firth Rixson, a specialist engineering firm that
makes aerospace parts. It also has a 33 per cent stake in Qinetiq, the
government's Defence Evaluation and Research Agency.
Whatever Carlyle says, its image as being at the apex of what Eisenhower
termed the 'military industrial complex' endures".
Daar was selfs sprake hier dat daar onderhandeling met die Carlyle groep is
om die (konserwatiewe) Telegraph koerant hier uit hulle finansiele
moeilikheid te help.
I'm intererested in comparing the use of modal verbs in different
West Germanic languages. I would appreciate then if you could possibly
translate the following sentences respectively into *standard*
Afrikaans, Dutch (Netherlandic), and German. The sentences are
1) If it rains, I will drive to school.
2) If it doesn't rain, I will walk to school.
3) If it rained, I would drive to school.
4) If it didn't rain, I would walk to school.
5) If it had rained, I would have driven to school.
6) If it hadn't rained, I would have walked to school.
7) If it had rained, I would have had to drive to school.
8) If it hadn't rained, I would have been able to walk to school.
9) If it hadn't rained, I could have walked to school.
10) I should have walked to school.
11) I should have driven to school.
12) I must drive to school because it is raining.
13) When it rains, cars must be parked inside the building.
14) The car must have been parked outside the building despite the
rain.
15) If it had rained, all cars would have had to be parked inside the
building.
Lorinda, ek lees netnou dat die boek "House of Bush, House of
Saud" van Craig Unger, verban is in Engeland?
"We've had to withdraw it for legal reasons," says an editor at Secker
& Warburg, a U.K. division of Random House. "We expected we would be
able to publish it with a degree of risk. But regrettably in the final
analysis we decided we could not.
Unger's literary agent Elizabeth Sheinkman stresses the decision had
nothing to do with the book's quality and that Secker & Warburg
editors "were very excited about" the manuscript. "But they were
concerned that it could be very costly for them," she says. "In the
process of having it legally vetted they were ultimately advised it
would be dangerous to publish the book. Or rather, the likelihood of
Random House [U.K.] being sued by the Saudis was too likely for them
to go forward."
Weet jy iets hiervan?
Terloops, nou die dag stuur 'n vriendin vir my 'n baie interessante
skakel wat handel oor pers vryheid. Volgens hulle lys lê Engeland
22ste. Suid Afrika is 26ste.
Amerika is 17de en Kanada is 5de!! ;-)
Finland, Ysland, Noorweë en hoera vir Roely, Nederland, is die eerste
4 lande met die mees vrye pers.
Nogal interessant, nè?

Wil jy nie daardie pakkie vir my gan haal nie assebliéf, Katryn.
Klink my of dit by julle erens opgeeindig het.
Katryn, kry Clarke se uitlatings publisiteit in die VSA?
Vanaf die BBC vandag:
Mr Clarke said: "When we talked about bombing the al-Qaeda infrastructure in
Afghanistan, Donald Rumsfeld said there were no good targets in Afghanistan:
Let's bomb Iraq."
Mr Clarke countered that Iraq had nothing to do with the attacks.
"That didn't seem to make much difference" to Mr Rumsfeld, he added.
Vandag in Brighton was die see vreeslik wild; daar was 'n stormwind en
die meeue het met hulle mae plat op die sand gesit om nie weg gewaai
te word nie. Die Engelse kanaal lyk die meeste van die tyd so rustig,
en kan dan skielik in 'n monster verander soos vandag. Van die kus
gepraat, waneer trek jy DD?
En as jy in die veld loop en 'n leeu jaag jou?
Dan klim ek in 'n boom!
En as daar nié 'n boom is nie?
Daar mòet 'n boom wees!
Die foto het ek sowat 7 ure gelede geneem.
Vir webdoeleindes het ek dit kleiner gemaak
maar wie die oorspronklike van my wil hê
is welkom natuurlik. Sowat half mb groot.
Die verwebsing het egter goed uitgekom.
Ek pos dit net hierna. Lees eers bò.
