Recession in Europe .....

Eag, no, none of us could make head nor tails of what the original poster was trying to say...

And here I thought there was some intelligent discussion going on here ... :p

it is fine to follow direction than rejection.

I respect your style of more sense.

Molten Metal: Well to some Ql members talking abt ladies pants makes more sense and is much more important than discussing the death of a group of students or the falling economies back home. Yes ladies’ pants are definitely a Ql related topic.

I say no.

our state of mind has a definite effect on our actions on road or off road or on our Laptop.

here here!!

check out e another onfrom him, he posts about driving on the left hand side of the road and then links it to loans from banks in qatar??? It makes zero sense

It is not even as if it were irrelevant to QL - it was just bizarre and very confusing, I just wanted some clarity as to the article the poster was referring to so we could discuss it in meaningful way, if he posts nonsense he should expect nonsense back

Some people just like the sound of their own voice even when they have nothing to say.

Some Qel ppl are picky abt everythin including who to be a total hypocritical towards.

It is not the Bolivia or UK incidents has some thing to do with QL community but .....

It is the compassion for humanity...... ?!

Bolivia's disabled clash with police over subsidies

Dozens of disabled people have clashed with police in Bolivia during a protest calling for higher state subsidies.

Several protesters were hurt as they tried to break through a police cordon in the country's main city of La Paz.

MM which one? There are a lot, surely you have a link?

2 killed & 38 wounded in Nigeria

Tell your friends to tread Caerphilly!

as gold is relevant to your Laptops...

Was he Welsh with Wellingtons ??

A missionary is sent into deepest darkest depths of Africa to

live with a tribe. He spends years with the people, teaching

them to read, write and good Christian values. One thing he

particularly stresses is the evil of sexual sin. "Thou must not

commit adultery or fornication!"

One day the wife of one of the Tribe's noblemen gives birth to a

white baby. The village is shocked and the chief is sent by his

people to talk with the missionary.

"You have taught us of the evils of sexual sin, yet here a black

woman gives birth to a white child. You are the only white man

who has ever set foot in our village. Anyone can see what's

going on here!"

The missionary replies, "No, no, my good man. You are mistaken.

What you have here is a natural occurrence - what is called an

albino. Look to thy yonder field. See a field of white sheep,

and yet amongst them is one black one. Nature does this on

occasion."

The chief pauses for a moment then says, "Tell you what, you

don't say anything about the sheep, I won't say anything about

the white baby." ^_*

I can already hear the distant sound of the bush drums.....:0

Hero123- : Can I be ur house slave? I’m not good with farm work!

We won't go oh oh oh

Burn it down

To the flo oh oh oh

Ayo me say day oh

Daylight come and we don't wanna go home

oi oi oi! Easy there son! No racial bashing plz!

Hero123- LOOL! Keep the farmer out of ur land!

(-: take a chill pill T.B. or should i say cry me a river?

It's not about bashing the first world, go ahead bash them, I don't care. I am here because the UK is in such a mess. The East is starting to take the lead as far as I can see and I applaud them for it. I just can't stand rubbish posts like this that have no link, are incorrectly headed (the subject heading is not related to the post), no reason is given for the posting, and is completely irrelevant as far as I can see.

And DC QL's top quality poster, you are guilty of posting rubbish like this as well. And I moan about them when you do. So it's no surprise to me to have you jump in here and and try and have a pop. What an asset to QL you are.

Molten Metal : how dare you post something bad abt the first world!

With Europe and American heading for the toilet lets hope the Africans take over leadership of the world. I have high hopes for them and their justice.

This world is a small village............poverty, recession, shortage is an inevitable for the working class all over the world. Likewise, politicians will always win elections by declaring wars. Millionaires, on either side of the war, will always win & commoners on either side will always lose. Young men & women from poor families will always get killed on the battleground for the sake of a few dimes & to cover the shame of the game of greed, they call it national pride ........and of course....arabs are superior to Indians & Europeans are superior to Arabs & Americans are superior to Europeans.........and so on.......God, why did you send me to the planet of fools?

We live in Qatar... at least C&P stories that are relevant to us.

And here is some more pointless C&P from the UK without comment or link:-

A main road into Swansea city centre is to have traffic diverted elsewhere to stop it breaking European pollution levels.

Neath Road in Hafod is long and narrow which means at busy times and in warmer weather, air cannot escape.

Air, traffic and weather monitoring equipment will send messages to electronic signs in the city telling traffic to use other routes when pollution reaches higher levels.

The system has been trialled in Sweden.

In the short term, motorists will be asked to use alternative routes, but plans are in place to create a relief road in the next few years.

John Hague, Swansea council's cabinet member for the environment: "We have been monitoring air quality in the Hafod part of the city for many years after declaring the area an air quality management area.

"The latest plan will enable us to monitor traffic flows on main routes into and out of the city through Hafod, along with monitoring air quality.

"The data collected will be used to inform motorists about alternative routes during their journey. This should help improve air quality along the routes."

Traffic problems

The section of Neath Road that is affected runs from the Liberty Stadium to the traffic lights at Dyfatty.

It is mostly a narrow street with terraced housing and shops running virtually all the way along it on both sides.

It has suffered for a number of years with traffic problems and Hafod has been designated as an air quality management area since 2001 because pollution in the air exceeds safe levels.

It's quite dangerous for residents who live there”

Robert Speht

Swansea councillor

Heavy goods vehicles are already banned from driving on the road in 1999, and speed bumps were removed in 2007 to help ease traffic flow.

Buses have also been diverted from Neath Road to another road running alongside.

The new system, known as the "Swansea Nowcaster System" will be able to measure the traffic flow, air quality and weather in real time.

It will use all the information together to determine if the pollution levels are likely to break European restrictions within a few hours.

The software, which is being tailored for use in Swansea, will then be able to send messages to electronic road signs near to Neath Road which warn people to use other routes.

The whole project is costing around £100,000 and is expected to start in the next few weeks.

Swansea council says this is the first time in the UK that such a scheme has been used.

'Dangerous'

"The problem has got worse over the last few years," said councillor Rob Speht, who serves the Landore ward.

"Neath Road is a very built-up residential area. The houses are continuous along each side creating a canyon effect.

"As the cars go along the road, particularly going slowly at peak times and if it's not very breezy, a lot of the exhaust emissions cannot escape.

"It's quite dangerous for residents who live there."

The EU restricts emissions of nitrogen dioxide and other pollutants because of their health impacts. Very high levels can cause inflammation of the lungs.

In 1999, the EU set an objective for every member state to lower nitrogen dioxide levels to fewer than 40 micrograms per cubic metre of air by 2010.

But many EU countries, including the UK, had problems meeting this deadline and were granted extensions until 2015.

Mr Speht said "several times" a year the emissions along Neath Road break the law.

A relief road, known as the Morfa Distributor Road, is being planned and will run from the Liberty Stadium along the River Tawe to a new housing development behind phase two of Parc Tawe shopping outlet.

It is hoped the road, which is driven by private developments, would open in the next couple of years and act as an alternative route to Neath Road.

MM what's meaningful, it has no meaning, just a bag of nonsense

LOL.. Nomerci

now thats what i call news .. :D

I agree, understanding a picture is easier than understanding a meaningful thought..for some.

And you know what else? In China, a sack or rice toppled over..dear me, the Chinese are going down the drain!!!!!!!!!!!! :P

Good to know that God is still remembered even though by a few only.....

God !! does this post make any sense ??

and then followed by even more confusing comments.. :(

No idea :0)

BE - fine, but what has that got to do with car plants and tescos?

Same problem as I was having earlier....understanding MM

Have you visited confused.com?

I believe he./ she is talking about an MP's suggestion that free travel passes for the elderly be stopped..

i COME IN pEACE (AND pROSPECT).... :)

alien attack?

Link please, I have not seen an article in the Telegrah which links, busses, tescos, pensioners and a car plant all together. Perhaps separately over a lot of days but MM's posting is very confused.

i think source is telegraph

MM - you are beginning to ramble or are exceedingly confused. What has a car plant, tescos, pensioners got to do with the UK economy if put all together? Where is the link, figuratively and literally???

MM send the link, not following you?

Recently it was in talks for taking full fare from pensioners, because this welfare does not contribute to UK economy as per officials..

My Advise save every penny and Invest it in Europe that will help the economy we might get very wealthy in the process.

BE quite. Now, if the poster had done his research and wanted to talk about the socio/economic and political impact that the government Workfare scheme is having on the economy, major retailers and those claiming benefits it would have been more on the mark.

But deal can't go through.

my bad i disagree (again hehehe)

Yep, we are in a recession, but the story is misleading. Pease check facts as to why the store was closed..

jjj75...lol...:)

BG your comprehension sucks. Suggested actions:

- Try reading and comprehending again, and

- then edit your post with the rider "Oops, my bad"...:)

actually BG - Prism was disagreeing with me or is reading a real challenge for a monkey?

Novita - some parts of Europe but Germany is doing very well (I know alot of Germans who are very glad to be going back to nice safe jobs in the near future).

As for sucking up - not my style.

prism to the rescue of jjj75 ur such a super hero or do u follow her specific post as i cant find u in any other place ard except the hotel one

yes jjj75, the points is europe really in a very bad shape , everyone should hangon dearly to their jobs in Qatar. Suck up hard to the boss and take the paycheck in the end of the month.

Recession in Europe can cause some turbulence in Qatar too or may be not...I mean economically...so seems it can somehow still be about living in Qatar...:)

isn't QL ad line - everything you need to know about living in Qatar???

if permission granted from her highness

is not to be discuss here?

Nov Quite, there is a point they are trying to make somewhere.

not you JJJ75, it was directed to the original poster. If he/she want to discuss europe then he can go to europeliving.com ;-)

europe is always fine even if not just send troops to any xyz country n loot the hell out of it

Novita77 if that were directed at me, I am well aware of where Kingfisher is based but to be honest, I am fed up with irrelevant threads snidely directed at how europe is doing badly economically (although I suspect Germans would disagree with you there) and wanted to point out that it is not all rosey on the Indian subcontinent, each country has it's own economic challenges to a greater or lesser extent.

If it were not directed at my comments, then I apologize.

you must be blind geographically ...... or illiterate ;-)

Just check out Kingfisher:
