Yesterday, I listed the demands the Unions were to make of the government. Well, whaddyaknow, today, we have one of them outlined as policy; Here; ‘Companies will be encouraged to positively discriminate in favour of women job candidates’ and later on Plans mean companies will also be encouraged to positively discriminate in favour of job candidates from ethnic minorities. This is just wrong. To compete, a company needs the person they deem most suitable in a role. It should be up to Hitchhiking down the North South Highway
This morning we woke up at 5:30am. With a mission. Me and Asa were going to hitchhike to KL from Butterworth, a distance of 382kms, and get back by 6pm on time to celebrate my mum's belated birthday. We left the guesthouse at 6am, after asking for directions to the NS Highway. The guesthouse manager, after asking us where we wanted to go (KL), what we wanted to do (hitchhike) and if we had tickets to any public transport (none at all), had "you guys are nuts" politely written all over her face.Some animals are more equal than others: Equalities Bill.
Another poorly thought out bill from New Labour. The government is to bring forward new legislation to outlaw all forms of age discrimination, the BBC has learned. Equalities Minister Harriet Harman is expected to announce the plan on Thursday as part of a package of measures in an Equalities Bill.[...] Travel, health and motor insurance is also expected to be included, where cover is simply withdrawn beyond a certain age or is prohibitively expensive.Now I do hate to be cruel here but the reasoman, my parents bum me out

By Julie Rains Healthcare will most likely be my family's largest expense in a couple of years, when we've finished paying our home mortgage. We're not heavy users of the healthcare system: to take care of my own needs, for example, I have seen my family physician for a non-routine visit just 3 times in the last 15 years. Just one family member takes a prescription medicine on a regular basis. What have we done to incur such high costs? We're Americans who want to protect our family from a mediAnother bus accident
A couple of days ago I read in the news that another express bus accident took place on the North-South Highway. Yes… again! I just cannot understand why after so many tragic accidents involving these express buses, they still do not learn… the bus companies, the drivers and our government!

We who live in West believe we have the bull by the horns. The East has never heard of Horace Greeley, so “going West” isn’t an option. Neither is “goign East” the answer, unless you’ve always been “Westernized”. There is a ONENESS that we must come into which means we Americans who seldom travel like the East (less than 20% have passports), need to embrace some of their customs.

Planning on flying away for the July 4th holiday? Save your money and skip the travel insurance, according to Consumer Reports. Often the insurance duplicates coverage you already receive from your health plan or homeowner’s policy. However, if you think the chances are pretty good that you may cancel your expensive trip (say you fear snow in the winter or a summer hurricane in the Caribbean), it might be worth protecting yourself.

I would love to go back to the 1970’s and work for a summer on one of the big power farms, driving a MF1200, or perhaps one of the huge imported prairie giants, such as the Ford FW. I would like to nip back and go to the states in the 70’s when Disco was at it’s height, and see if it was as fun as raving in ‘88 was. I wouldn’t mind travelling back to the late 1940’s in the States and building a hot rod. But, alas, time travel remains the domain of sciencHow Airlines May Affect Your Wedding
