Africa & Middle East - November 2006

I once knew this guy, Kabous, who was able to get out of difficult situations quite effectively or should I say imaginatively. And he never got into any trouble. He could lie or explain himself out of any situation. Our teacher once asked him why he was late and he replied that the sign outside said: "SCHOOL AHEAD. GO SLOW". Any other stories like these? If not, be creative and make one up! Same procedure as last...best story gets best answer. Another fun question, guys. I'm tired of all the bickering.

I've heard that around 90% of women have had this procedure done to them in Egypt. Is this true? Why is it so common? And how common is it in the cities like Cairo, Alexandria, Giza? Or is it also as common there as it is in the villages?

I believe that most of it was shot in and around Jo'burg.
Fantastic flick - starring a fantastic actor, Don Cheadle, as hotel manager Paul Rusesabagina, who saved 1268 Tutsis from the hands of Hutu extremists during the Rwandan genocide of 1994.
Terrifically acted (I recognised some South African faces) and written with restraint. The musical score also was very moving.

Ironic that it should be shot in South africa, because I believe there are movies still to come about the present situation in South Africa.

I have spoken to South Africans who insist there would not be a problem if I travelled there but having done a bit of reading into this the impression that I am getting is that i would probably encounter racism from the white South Africans as despite the fact that apartheid no longer exists, the mentality is still very much evident.
Could someone truthfully tell me if I would experience problems as I could book to go somewhere else instead. I never thought my skin colour would be a big problem in countries until about 5 years ago when I went to Mexico and experienced a lot of racism [people not wanting to serve me in cafes; telling me hotels were full when they were not, and being asked to get off of buses so my passport could be checked and then being told that I wasn't really British]. I now try to make myself as aware as possible about my future destinations and would not for example travel to Russia due to the prevalence of neo-nazi factions and several other countries.
