Okay I see the funny part, its linked to the anti-immigration party and the fact the camel is called Ali and the understandable concern is immigrants from the ME That is funny, I get it now

I am not sure what is so funny about this particular story but people in the Danish parliament sure found it funny? So an elephant has got an emotional\physical connection with a camel and had to be included in the animal transfer Okay that makes sense, good news story.....just not funny

Sunday, winter weather and only one proven, scientific remedy for such temporary but melancholic times....a Sunday roast So Im cooking mini-Pork belly with buttery, creamy mash ...for a change

https://www.aol.com/normandy-veterans-gather-mark-77th-094235642.html Guys hugely important day today, the remembrance of D-Day, 77 years ago Their is a new memorial that has been opened today in France as another reminder of the important and noble sacrifice of those who never survived this battle, well done to the allies and eventual victory against the Nazi's and other forms of autocracy and dictatorship that existed at the time Its a good time to watch the superlative " Saving Private Ryan " again

Im 40 hours into ELEX and absolutely loving it, it has a better "sandbox" enemy level and exploration design than Morrowind. What I mean by that is in ELEX their are several deadly enemies who randomly exist on the map and you cannot possibly defeat them at my level 10. So you use subterfuge and exploit the brilliant AI to get the monster, in one example I was facing a slugbeast at level 7, to follow you and I led the foul beast to the Berserker camp where their elite fighters were able to defeat it...on the way to the camp the slugbeasts aggro made several low level cultivators and guards foolishly throw their lives away by attacking it, it was hilarious seeing them get slaughtered in some pointless attack Anyway I now have a follower and an energy sword so I use my follower to attract enemies and I attack from the side or back...its effective and works in much combat with higher level enemies In Morrowind I got to the level where nothing could defeat me, it was fun but the ELEX design is better because you can easily be defeated by enemies and very difficult enemies you encounter as you explore the map and solve a myriad of quests for different factions and around the main quest

Yes but who pays for the employment net and other wide ranging socialist and liberal "panaceas " for all the woes in the world? In SA their are some in government who want to implement a deeply flawed NHI ( National Health Insurance ) so everyone has access to the working private sector healthcare that only 20 % of the population has access to with the mandatory medical aid we pay So they expect 80% of the population to somehow access these limited resources but they ignore the obvious solution " fix the public sector healthcare " so 80 % of the population has the services they are entitled to And the whole of government is automatically on private sector healthcare they dont have to use the public sector The point being some in government are expecting the 20 % to pay for this ill-conceived idea of NHI instead of addressing the problem on the ground

Its good news that the CCP wants to changes the current trajectory of its image, it is its own worse enemy as mentioned in the article around its belligerent and controversial actions in several examples They need to work primarily on the quote below He said the country should be "open and confident, but also modest and humble" in its communication with the world. Im not sure the CCP understands what that really means, the words are real but its the implementation that concerns me

Its officially winter in SA and we have several cold spells that have led to snow falling in some parts of the country Its cold and dark in CPT now and especially in the morning when I go for my walk, so I leave at about 7:30 am and that means I see the sunrise during the early stages of my walk

Great post and lots of pertinent information for those looking for a review of GW2 from an active player, nice one I will give it a try, I will let you know when I do

Well they have 7 days or so to confirm the new political alliance that should unseat Netanyahu but what a strange alliance it is. Bennet has demonstrated more right wing and extremist comments that Netanyahu ever did but yes they have one thing in common....they want him gone

You must definitely give it a go, dont forget to look at some Mods. I dont think their are many that make fundamental changes but several for cosmetic and convenience changes I have yet to play DA:I but I have it installed and ready to go so it will definitely play it this year I have always been interested in GW2, about 12 years ago I worked with 2 guys who loved this game and played it religiously at 6pm for 4-6 hours most nights How would you describe it, go into as much detail as possible

Well that is good news, I always assumed you like ME because you play and enjoy the DA series but that was a spurious assumption on my part But I think its a hugely positive Bioware step if you dont hate the ME series anymore

Zora that is an extremely unhelpful and inaccurate comment. Of course everyone likes NZ, you guys produce good diary, you have excellent rugby and cricket teams and you like your sheep But you have to accept and be grateful with your relationship with Australia. You would be hugely impacted without the economic and social benefits that come from Oz. Gorthfuscious is too polite to say this but you should be thanking Australia for allowing NZ to share the burden of their criminals. You and I both know its true if we honest

Thanks for taking the time to make this unexpected point about this whole case. I am not sure if what you saying is definitely correct but it makes sense. I appreciate the insight, I am not going to comment on this topic anymore because I think the farther is not someone who I should be trying to understand as IMO he has failed in a basic tacit rule of parenthood.....you must support and love your children.

But also loans to Ukraine must be measured, you wont help if you just throw money at them without understanding what the money is being spent. The problem with the Ukraine conflict with Russian separatists is their is no elegant solution as Russia does have some validity for annexing Crimea, I didnt realize this until a recent debate with Zora and Gorthfuscious And Russian military intervention in the ME becomes very unnecessarily complicated because of certain realities in the region and outcomes. I did support the Russian involvement in helping to end the Syrian conflict because the impasse that existed when Assad couldn't defeat rebels in Aleppo in 2015 started dragging on and suddenly their were real consequences for this war not being resolved. And the US and UK were not going to get that involved because their solution had been ignored and Russia and China had vetoed their involvement to help the Syrian rebels to defeat Assad in 2011 https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-15177114 Now years later the war was still dragging on but it was becoming an economic and refugee burden on the region so someone had to intervene to end the war one way or another So it was a necessary development that Russia intervened ....yes they are notorious for not understanding the importance of why you avoid collateral damage like the killings of civilians but I think they have learnt this will the final isolation of rebels in Idlib province The issue now is does the EU and the US help rebuild Syria, my view is not until Assad steps down..

How would compare it to games Dragon Age or NWN2....I have been told you cant compare JRPG to other RPG but is that true. I have a very wide interests in games I play and I am sure I would enjoy a JRPG?

I love Guacamole, I have never made it fresh before....we get such excellent semi-fresh Guac from a local food store I just get that ..its delicious

Are their Romance arcs to explore ?

My bad, thanks for telling me. I still am interested in what our Swedish residents think because it comes up around Swedens overall response to the pandemic and I not sure what is the reality on the ground ?

Im in the same boat, never played one before but other members have so someone will comment Thanks for the translation

You make some very good points that sound convincing, I dont know enough about the law to comment further Maybe @gromnir can comment, so what will be the question we need to understand ? Is it " was it fair and not government overreach that occurred when he was jailed "? I am not sure how to frame it

Yeah, you right. I feel the father failed in his primary role to support his children in such an epic way thats the biggest issue for me

Fair enough, yes they become worthless if his trusted family goes to the media with what he says. Sorry to ask this but what is the overall point ? Are you saying he should or shouldnt have been jailed and can you clarify why ?

I watched an interview with someone from the Swedish government on Sky and he was asked about why Sweden has mishandled the pandemic so badly ....he said they havent and their is exaggeration from some in the media? I wonder what @Pidesco and @Azdeus think overall about the Swedish response, is it true its been a failure? How do we measure a failure ?

Yes okay I see what you asking. I would use a principle, if I was him, of common sense. Anyone he talks to about this he needs to ask them not to repeat what he said to media. If he doesnt trust someone then he mustnt talk to them because then he will be held liable if they go to the media I know I could tell my family and certain friends and I know they wont repeat it to the media but I wouldnt tell my whole family So the assurances can only be based on trust, I cant see people signing a document ?
