Re: Blasts in delhi

I really should have said this earlier but got caught up in the discussion(should have been the first thing i said). Sincere condolences to the victims i am truly sorry for your loss. Having a child, father, mother, sister or friend killed is a truly tragic. Again i am sincerly sorry for your loss.

Re: Blasts in delhi

I think that we all agree on at least one thing (even my detractors), the government needs to do a HELL of a lot more to track down and bring to justice these terrorists. I dont think anyone will disagree with me there.

Fanee i want to give you a hug.

Re: Personal Health, Nutrition and Fitness Thread

So basically to summarise my previous posts three factors seem to influence the development of nations.

1) Skin Tone of inhabitants
2) Proximity of the nation to coast or the actual length of the coastline with regards to the size of the nation
3) Extremity of temperatures, whether too hot or cold.
