I wonder will they start spying over here, and trying to work out what accounts here are over on planks - if any.

Then use content posted here to ban over there - would not surprise me at all .

It's just that kind of snow that is lying in a tree well. It's known to be very powdery and very deep, and people do get killed that way. Going head first in and disappearing.
This was one of the tensest videos I ever watched in my life.
My second son is an avid snowboarder and this freaked the crap out of me.

The Dalai Lama has apologised after he faced allegations of inappropriate behaviour after kissing a young boy on the lips and asking him to “suck his tongue” at a public event in India.

The interaction, which took place in late February at the Dalai Lama’s temple in Dharamshala, was attended by about 100 young students who had just graduated from the Indian M3M Foundation.

This story is crazy off the charts.
https://m.independent.ie/irish-news/nor ... 37975.html
A rogue breast surgeon who grew up in Northern Ireland could be linked to more than 1,600 deaths, a campaigner has warned.

Bangor-educated Ian Paterson is currently serving a 20 year jail sentence for carrying out needless, life-changing operations.

But now the focus is on Paterson’s botched 'cleavage-sparing' mastectomies on patients which left behind the breast tissue, risking a return of cancer.

Medical experts are now looking through records belonging to hundreds of patients who were under the care of Patterson who was educated at Bangor Grammar School before studying medicine at Bristol University.

At the weekend the Times revealed that the deaths of 650 patients who were under his care are currently being investigated by coroners in Birmingham.


....
He had carried out invasive and unnecessary surgery on both men and women between 1991 and 2012. A large proportion of these surgeries were on women with suspected breast cancer. He also carried out unnecessary surgeries such as colonoscopies, vascular surgeries, hernia surgeries and vasectomies.

An inquiry found he carried out unnecessary operations in NHS and private hospitals on more than 1,000 patients over 14 years, exaggerating or inventing cancer risks and claiming payments for more expensive procedures.

That has to be a world record for deaths by one doctor. I'd say there's little doubt he suffers from a God/superiority complex . . lots of surgeons have it unfortunately.

Yeah, I was thinking has to be some sort of a record. The crazy thing is this serial killer will be hardly known about in a short while.

There's a case in the UK of a nurse who murdered many babies - her name will be lost in time soon, yet should be shouted from the rooftops.

True, however Mengele was part of an army with a collective, evil agenda, and wasn't a lone wolf like this nutjob.

Who is also in the halfpenny stakes when it comes to the experimentation committed by the US on a grand scale on its population, and they were quite happy to use the result of Mengele's horrific experimentation.

If Robert De Niro is remembered for nothing else it should be for calling out the 'orangeman'. Sorry for going off topic - well, actually I'm not. :mrgreen:

Generally regarding Médicins sans Frontières in a positive light, this story came as a bit of a WTF??? moment:

Refugees seriously injured on razor-wire fence UK helped build to keep asylum seekers out of EU

:roll: Seriously? Someone somewhere is shocked that a fence built with something called razor-wire causes injuries to anyone foolish enough to try to climb it? And so what if the UK helped build it?

The Taliban roaring towards Iran on the fancy gear left to them by the American military is very twenty first century planet earth vibes.



Wait. There's more. 😑
