My parents were the same, sadly my mother passed away in August last year, had she stayed with us until December they would have been married for 75 years.
Now I watch with deep sadness as my father is slowly dying from a broken heart.
I believe we men are far more reliant on female companionship than women.
If she could I think she would ban certain people from the first of her posts, must really P!$$ her off that she can only ban on her own threads, and then only after that person has posted a comment
Before you panic, may I suggest you get another thermometer and check with that. And why are you checking your temp anyway? If you are feeling unwell, then see a doctor
"I am reading about the European news and UK is under Red Alert.
Finally these people will get the feel as to how it is to be terrorized."
It really goes to show how little some understand world events and the ignorance they have on history.
That they think Europe and especially the UK have never had terrorist attacks is mindblowing, the audacity of spouting such ignorance can only come from someone who has a very very poor sense of truth, integrity and honesty, or they are plainly stupid!!!
Agreed, so very sad and now the lives of all in the EU are going to be made harder by the threat of more attacks, I do think that these evil attacks may well bring people together, to force those in power to stop taking the Merkel path and start removing those who have no genuine reason to be in Europe, maybe send them to Saudi!!
And such a shame that some use these terrible and outrageous attacks to make posts with lies and exaggerations, to make themselves appear knowledgeable and clever, how sick is that?
Banning anyone who has the affront to question the legitimacy of their twisted posts.
"President Barack Obama condemned the attacks that ripped through Brussels on Tuesday morning, leaving more than 30 dead, saying such “outrageous” acts will not be tolerated. “This is yet another reminder that the world must unite. We must be together, regardless of nationality or race or faith, in fighting against the scourge of terrorism,” Obama said, speaking at the Grand Teatro in Havana as part of his historic trip to Cuba. Story Continued Below “We can and we will defeat those who threaten the safety and security of people all around the world.” Earlier on Tuesday, Obama spoke by phone with Belgian Prime Minister Charles Michel and expressed condolences while reaffirming the support of the U.S. “The President reiterated that the United States stands together with the people of Belgium, as well as NATO and the European Union, and once again pledged the full cooperation and support of the United States in our shared commitment to defeat the scourge of terrorism,” the White House said in a readout of the phone call. U.S. officials were quick to weigh in Tuesday morning about the attacks that have once again shaken not only Europe but the world. Details are still emerging about the attacks and the human toll. Brussels was locked down after two explosions ripped through an airport terminal on Tuesday morning, and a series of blasts went off at a subway station several blocks from major European Union institutions. Attorney General Loretta Lynch and Secretary of State John Kerry were also being briefed about the still unfolding situation in Belgium, and pledged the cooperation of the FBI and other government agencies. Kerry spoke with Belgian Foreign Minister Didier Reynders on Tuesday to praise the work of first responders and to talk about the developing investigation. “Both ministers agreed that that the perpetrators must be brought to justice and that attacks such as these underscored the need for a continued and concerted push by all nations to counter violent extremism,” the State Department said. State Department spokesman John Kirby also said that State officials are in touch with the U.S. embassy in Brussels, and that they are determining the status of all American citizens in Brussels. Defense Secretary Ash Carter, meanwhile, said the U.S. military is “ready to provide assistance to our friends and allies in Europe as necessary.” Belgian authorities, who said at least one suicide bomber was involved in the explosions, raised the threat level to four, the highest level, which serves as a warning that further attacks could occur."
Nowhere does he say this is NOT RELIGIOUS. unless there is another speech not reported in any main media
Brussels knew there was a huge risk of retaliation after the arrest of Salah Abdeslam. "Belgium's Interior Minister Jan Jambon said on Monday that there was a threat from revenge attacks after the capture of Salah Abdeslam."
As I said in another thread, this is just the start, and it will get worse before those in power actually do something to try and stop these terrorists, and by then it will be too little and too late.
Your shortsightedness is not a very admirable quality, so unless you can show where I have ever shown any communistic support, I suggest you go back to reading your comics and leave the politics to those who actually read credible sources and have open minds.
"The controversy around Sinn Féin president Gerry Adams being denied entry to the White House’s St Patrick’s Day party on Tuesday was yesterday escalated up to President Barack Obama’s most senior aide and the US Secret Service director. Mr Obama’s chief of staff, Denis McDonough, told US congressmen Richard Neal and Joe Crowley by telephone yesterday that he was going to ask US secretary of homeland security Jeh Johnson and a representative of the State Department to investigate what happened. In a separate telephone call with the two Irish-American politicians yesterday, the director of the Secret Service, Joseph Clancy, “apologised profusely” for what had happened to the Sinn Féin leader. Mr Adams had to wait for 90 minutes outside the annual party over what the Secret Service described as an “administrative input error”. He decided to leave when it became clear the problem would not be resolved. The Secret Service later expressed regret over the incident. Minister for Foreign Affairs Charlie Flanagan welcomed the explanation from the agency but criticised Mr Adams for drawing a parallel with civil rights leader Rosa Parks in reacting to the incident. Rosa Parks Mr Adams responded by saying that Sinn Féin would “not sit at the back of the bus for anyone”, drawing a parallel with Parks’s refusal in 1955 to relinquish her seat on a bus for one in a “coloured” section at the back. During his St Patrick’s Day visit to New York, Mr Flanagan said he did not believe the comparison was “appropriate”. Taoiseach Enda Kenny, on a visit to a summit of EU leaders in Brussels, described Parks as “an international icon, a woman of courage and bravery who made a real mark on history for its benefit”. “I’m not going to comment on the difficulties with Deputy Adams getting into the White House, ” he said, adding that everyone was “treated the same going into the White House – security is absolutely stringent”. The conversations between the congressmen and the senior Obama aides occurred after they raised concerns about the incident in a letter from 10 members of the Friends of Ireland caucus of congressman. ‘A typo’ Mr McDonough told Mr Neal that the incident may have arisen as a result of “a typo” in inputting Mr Adams’s personal details. Mr Neal said he and Mr Crowley explained “the political and the security implications” of the incident to Mr Clancy in their call. The director took full responsibility for what happened and promised it would not happened again, the Massachusetts congressman said. Mr Neal told The Irish Times about the incident’s significance given that the Clinton administration granting of a visa to Mr Adams in 1994 was “one of the critical moments” in the Northern Ireland peace process. “If you are standing outside of the White House and everybody is going past you, the situation is not likely to land well,” he said. Mr Crowley said the Obama administration was aware of the “unintended consequences of this unfortunate event”. “They understand the optics of this and want to avoid anything like this from happening again,” said the New York congressman. “It was not intended.”"
YOU brought up China, you really think trumpet will build a fence across the USA? and what will that achieve other than making money for the suppliers and workers, the longest fence (I think the longest) in the world is in Australia to keep out wild dingos, it fails, so you think something similar will stop determined humans? Better to open the borders and regulate those that enter.
Yes agreed, but now the influence of the USA could have far reaching effects on the rest of the world. I take little interest in Indian politics, but when India has a large and well equipped military and starts flexing it's muscles, then I will sit up and take notice.
I am genuinely worried that the leaders of USA could start something that no one can stop and the annihilation of mankind will occur.
Agreed, but will they do it? Look how many here on CS have called for Obama to be impeached, secondly, impeachment means doing something unlawful, causing a third world war is not breaking the law if Trump decides to press the button to punish China, thirdly, If, as so many republicans have said, Obama has rewritten laws, what is to stop Trump doing the same? Impeaching is fine if a law is to be broken, but how do you stop an egotistical idiot like Trump from punching Putin on the nose, once its done its too late!!
They made interesting stories and places for tourists to visit, but the Norse Gods were more realistic IMO The Egyptian Gods are more believable, while the spirits worshipped in Africa make the most sense.
Apathy seems to be the rule, everyone says "The politicians are all the same, so why bother" but in the USA I would have expected a better understanding of the responsibility to keep the likes of Clinton/Trump, out of the running.
Kid: hijack away, you make some good points, and while not about Rubio, it does matter to the world in general who controls each major country.
My concern is not that the walls won't be built or immigrants banned, but that a person with no diplomacy, no ability to mediate, and who shoots first and asks questions later, could control the most powerful country in the world. And that is terrifying, when you look at the leaders in Asia.
You really believe that Trump will build fences? So gullible, he says whatever the people want him to say, to ensure he gets the power votes!! No better than any other candidate.
Putin is a dangerous man, but not stupid Trump is stupid, which makes him even more dangerous than Putin
What the USA needs now is a leader with Trumps passion and drive, but with the responsibility to act like an adult when required, sadly the last time one was president was in 1861.
