"Multiculturalism has failed in Germany"


http://www.csmonitor.com/World/Global-News/2010/1017/Germany-s-Angela-Merkel-Multiculturalism-has-utterly-failed


Why not give monoculturalism another spin of the wheel then, given its overwhelming success the last time your country tried it?

Benoit Mandelbrot has died.

Fortunately for the Police, there are no suspicious circumstances - otherwise it would have been a bugger of a job drawing that chalk outline.

Or if he were murdered would it be a serial or self-similar killer?

Good to see a company taking H&S seriously.

The company has shot themselves in the foot, absolute weight is not a good measure of how well someone can fit into a tight space (although it will tend to correlate).  They should have instead used girth to justify it.

[Sloper]

Indeed, but weight is just so much easier to measure.

[slackline]

Either poor journalism or they haven't weighed them accurately (article states their weight as being "around 20 stone").

Girth is very easy to measure...



...providing its long enough!

|All that shows is that the Telegraph is now nothing more than a broadsheet version of the Mail and that the government are planning on ensuring the security services have the means to do what they've been doing for a 100 or so years but in a modern era.

I don't see that they're planning on requiring providers to record the data and pass it on or create a database of communications etc so it seems that the DT is staffed by morons.
