  1. A woman in a burqa was pulled over by the police because she was a “P” plate, (provisional) driver and the plates weren’t displayed correctly. He asked her for her license and asked her to remove her burqa so that he knew it was her license. She accused him of being racist and that the only reason he pulled her over was because she was wearing a burqa. She then told him he would be sorry and that she would take him to court. She then contacted the media and said he was racist, had touched her burqa and she was intimidated by him. Had her accusations been upheld, his career could have been in jeopardy. However, luckily for the policeman, the police car’s video camera was operating and it was all caught on film. She has now been charged and sentenced to jail for 6 months. The judge said she was the racist one. Now her solicitor is saying it wasn’t her who made the complaint but someone else wearing a burqa. He claimed she shouldn’t go to jail because she has 7 children to care for – with no regard for the policeman’s family had he lost his job due to her false accusations. Here is the video: http://aca.ninemsn.com.au/Video.aspx?videoid=af53d2ac-f507-4e8d-983a-a5a259bbe6fc The telling comment came at the end from the newscaster in which she quoted Islamic leaders as saying it it permissable for the burqa to be removed so a Police officer can identify someone. She's doing herself and Muslims no favours in her behaviour.
  2. I have a very nasty feeling that those Russians will buy them and invest enough to get them promoted next year. :(
  3. We need revenge for the defeat at SMS
  4. "I don't care Obama is awesome" and "Bush is a buffoon" :lol:
  5. In Australia "gingers" are called "Rangahs" which is short for "Orangutan"
  6. Please read your WW2 history books and then VFTT you might want to change your post. BTW did you know I.B.M. gave the Nazis a system so that the Nazis could track the people they hated ? .
  7. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/VELOCETTE-THRUXTON-1966-500cc-/260705583481?pt=UK_Motorcycles&hash=item3cb3438179 Wish I still owned the silver & blue one I had, still have the factory manual for it. .
  8. Click the names to check out our latest videos with legend Matt Le Tissier and Southampton FC manager Jan Pootvliet and find the other parts of the documentary so far here. That part confused me.
  9. Hey I remember that TV prog, when I was a kid I loved watching the "Cisco Kid". Perhaps you should re-name yourself ???
  10. I fail to understand why this has been decided and cannot believe that it should be called the World Cup anymore. The International Cricket Council has confirmed its decision to cut team numbers for the World Cup from 14 to 10 starting with the 2015 tournament. It means there is no place for Ireland, who beat England in the 2011 World Cup. Only full ICC members - India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, England, South Africa, New Zealand, Australia, West Indies, Bangladesh and Zimbabwe - will compete in four years time. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/cricket/12964294.stm A sad day for International cricket
  11. Yesteryear technology at tomorrows prices. Ideal for old men who no longer wish to go fast around corners or indeed in a straight line. Horrible waste of time and materials that could be put to better use.
  12. Ah well another 20 seconds of my life I won't get back due to reading that post by Deppo. .
  13. Pleased India won in the end, I would have preferred NZ but never mind at least Sri Lanka and Australia LOST Actually even if Australia had won as long as SL didn't that is the main thing for myself.2 "players"(?) who shall not be named are to blame for my intense dislike of SL. Roll on the next W.C. .
  14. Watching this video brought a lump to my throat as I am such a softie with regards to pets. http://nz.news.yahoo.com/video/watch/24750600/19724910/ Happy ending though, well sort of.
  15. Ah but just think of the carnage if it was tried at pimpeys carpheap
  16. I was wondering if anyone knows if it is possible to look for lists of judgements handed down by a particular judge ? Do you have to quote the exact case ? The reason I am asking is that I would be interested to know if that lady Judge who gave pimpey the extra 7 days has been as lenient with other companies in a similar position as pimpey were when they appeared before her. .
  17. SYDNEY, March 29 (Reuters) - Ricky Ponting, the most successful captain in 134 years of test cricket ??, resigned as the Australian test and one-day skipper on Tuesday but will continue as a batsman with the team. http://nz.sports.yahoo.com/cricket/news/article/-/9094025/ponting-steps-down-as-australia-captain/ ALSO Bikinis :D http://nz.entertainment.yahoo.com/galleries/gallery/-/9092697/guess-the-bikini-bods/1/ 18 pictures to look at :D
  18. Perhaps if BTF promised a "happy ending" she would be snapped up by one of the teams ?
  19. Editor's Note: I know that attention spans on the internet are short. I will therefore tell you that, yes, I believe a kind of doomsday has begun and it is caused by a cyclical interaction between the Earth and the Sun. I will attempt to explain this as best I can later in this article. It's only a theory for you to consider and I strongly advise viewzone readers to do your own research. http://www.viewzone.com/expandox.html http://www.viewzone.com/expando2.html Part 2 is IMHO more of a concern than part 1 Both are long articles but well worth reading. Some will try and ridicule but as the editor says do your own research. .
  20. My wife has an Acer laptop that for the last 2 weeks or so will not charge up to more than 87% instead of 100%. It doesn't matter how long the charger is plugged in. Any tips on how to get it charged to 100% again please ??
  21. Sorry benjii but for once I have to agree to disagree. I am very confident KD will be "found out" by lots of teams next season, Bart never seems to be given a long run so it would appear he is not as good as some, including myself, think. Finally need I mention a certain Mr Forcast ? I think we need at least one if not two new goalkeepers to help us onwards and upwards. Just because some people think KD is untouchable because he is a "good bloke" sentiment cannot and must not be allowed if we want to continue progress to the promised land. .
  22. I am waiting for St Lard to add "Manager" to the players names suggested :lol:
  23. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sQVRZtV8Kg0 Interesting development ?
  24. Certainly not much with THAT referee.
  25. As the title says I am having problems with the site, anyone else ??
