The rest of the world sees Africa as one homogenous block (especially Americans), yet when we debate the idea of a united Africa in a political and economic sense (e.g. the EU or even the US), we Africans have huge issues with it. My question in plain English is, do you think we can ever have a United States of Africa? If not, why not? Why do we as Africans have such an issue with it when the whole world sees us as one troubled block anyway?

Some friends and I were talking about this, and we weren't really sure if Euro Trip, the movie, was a reliable source. How much nudity is allowed to shown on European television? Is it stricter in some countries more than others? I just want to know so I don't make any false conclusions.

A woman was walking along the beach when she stumbled upon a Genie's lamp. She picked it up and rubbed it, and lo-and-behold a Genie appeared. The amazed woman asked if she was going to receive the usual three wishes.

The Genie said, "Nope ... due to inflation, constant downsizing, low wages in third-world countries, and fierce global competition, I can only grant you one wish. So ... what'll it be?"

The woman didn't hesitate. She said, "I want peace in the Middle East. See this map? I want these countries to stop fighting with each other."

The Genie looked at the map and exclaimed, "Gadzooks, lady! These countries have been at war for thousands of years. I'm good, but not THAT good! I don't think it can be done. Make another wish."

The woman thought for a minute and said, "Well, I've never been able to find the right man. You know, one that's considerate and fun, likes to cook and helps with the housecleaning, is good in bed and gets along with my family, doesn't watch sports all the time, and is faithful. That's what I wish for ... a good mate."

The Genie let out a long sigh and said, "Let me see that ******* map!"

I will be flying on Delta at the end of this month and was just curious as to what order (after first class is seated), do they call to seat first. I'm seated in the last row of the back and was mainly wanting to know if I will be amongst the first to board.

I am travelling to Japan for business this month. This trip is to coordinate a conference of medical doctors that will be held April of next year, and I will be meeting with many of the people I will be working with over the next 10 months to get this conference off the ground. I have never been to Japan before, but I know that there is a lot of ritual associated with business gifts -- what should I bring? Normally when I give business gifts, I try to give something relevant to the person's character, or something that is particular to my geography (San Francisco). For example, I know the person I've had the most contact with likes baseball, so I got them a Daisuke Boston Red Sox shirt. But there are many more important people I will be meeting with that I have no idea about their background or interests.

I am looking for inexpensive accommodations within a block or two of the South Building (off Bremner) of the Toronto Convention Center. A place with very large rooms or suites to accommodate 4 women. We are coming the second week of August and as we are not young women, air conditioning is a must!! There are 8 of us, so we will need 2 rooms. Internet would be very nice. Buffet breakfast also would be a treat. Anyone have any suggestions?

The offer is tempting but I am rather worried about security in Nigeria. Also how safe are indians there. I am a Surgeon and the idea is to make some money if possible over the next 5 years. Please advice.
