Current Events - November 2007

I bought Aquadots for my son from this website:

https://www.spindirect.com/product.php?productid=16320/s=aquadots

Unfortunately, this toy has been recalled because two children who ingested it fell into a coma... the story is found in CNN:

http://money.cnn.com/2007/11/07/news/international/toys_drug.ap/index.htm?cnn=yes

So my questions are, how do I return it and get a refund? Who do I talk to? Is there another website I can go to for a return?

I know that a lot of shows are shut down due to the strike, and I have read that most of the stars of these shows are supportive to the striking writers. Can anyone tell me the specifics? I guess in retrospect, I should've waited until the little punk chi'dren went to bed to ask this question, because I know I will get the stock IDK answers, but any light you can shed would be most appreciated.

Millions in fines is more than enough to ruin his life- the average american only makes a million in their working lifetime. But to remove him from his family?

I mean, is it a case of neglect or abuse, or just poor supervision? How many other children start fires unintentionally when in good homes and supervised as well as any child can be? Should they also be removed and made wards of the state?

I dont know, it just seems like head hunting to me. Its like they want to find fault, and punish someone to make up for it or something.

He's only 10 for Christs sake.

Just watched pictures on the news regarding the fire-fighters who lost their lives in Warwickshire and it was heart-breaking seeing their family and friends talking about their loss. Do we really give them enough respect for the job they do? Why do they continually have to fight for every measly pay-rise they get from our greedy and avaricious politicians?

Had the semblance of a conversation with someone who has dedicated there life to proving the Mcanns are guilty. Spittle dripping frothing at the lips reminicent of someone with the onset of mental illnes, I asked why do you bother yourself with this they said " im a sad fu ck up with nothing to do bored out of my tiny mind walking the streets with my head bowed grunting as passing traffic" i enquired why did you not join the police after your formal education and put these great detective skills to the test they said " i have a double digit IQ- i guess im thick the only sort of job i could get is pushing leaflets through peoples doors"

Gerry apparently sent and received 14 text messages on the night of May 3, even during the meal. The Portuguese prosecutor won't allow police to apply for the phone records until he has more "proof" of the McCanns involvement. Surely the phone records could decide that proof. The Portuguese DNA has proved inconclusive and they rely on the Birmingham lab which STILL haven't finished the tests. The whole thing is stating to smell like a total cover up. The Prosecutor won't allow the Mc's to be reinterviewed until they have more proof, even though it is the interviews which could provide the proof. Catch 22. I say it's acover up. NO WAY could those tests be taking this long. What do you all think

Since it is now apparent that Rosie O’Donnell is joining MSNBC we must now consider what her impact will be there. Will her radical left wing spin besmirch the noble names at NBC like Tim Russert and Brian Williams? Will she be crushed at 9 PM by King and Hannity and Colmes?

I will just to see him groveling.. The one thing that makes me dislike the man so much is his motto "In Dog We Trust". I am anti-religion but that still makes me think he thinks he is all that.

I do like Beth though, she should have her own show. Maybe he could work for her!

Why has this terrible trend crossed over from America across the seas to other lands?

What makes young people so desperate that they are willing to kill people like this?

Will things get worse, or is there hope that we can prevent future massacres?

...a correct impression?

(Americans tend to use the politics section on YA, Brits Current Events)

A lot of Brits will say most Americans are decent, just don't like their president - is this because we meet the decent ones, for example the ones who travel outside America?

Those of us who remember are very grateful to the USA for the help we received, and to the American boys who gave their lives to help us. I doubt very much that they would approve of your attitude or your boastful manner. Shame sir Shame.

We read that far from being united behind the McCanns the rest of the notorious group of serial child neglectors gang, the 'Tapas 9', are on the verge of grassing Kate and Gerry up to the Police if a deal can be struck to maintain their anonymity.

Is it now only a matter of time before the 'Tapas 7' change their story and sell out the McCanns to save their own skins ?
