i agree with securespark. bringing racial origin into things when its unneccesary to do so, will be seen as racism.

petewood- it depends what you mean by 'judge'. referring to someone as a 'white male', or a 'german', is not racist, even though you are judging them upon their ethnic origin.

you have a valid point slogger in that younger generations of those particular examples do sometimes refer to each other using those terms. one day it will probably be seen as acceptable to use either of those words. example: black rappers talk about n***rs. when they use it, it's just a...

the words n***** and p*k* may have initially been used as a way of referring to people of those nations, but both were misused over time. therefore their meanings changed, from describing racial origin, to derogatory terms. this is why you shouldn't say them. im sure you know they're derogatory...

if people are backed into a corner, they may resort to terrorism. the difference here though is these pakistani bombers weren't doing it to free a british oppressed pakistan, ie it didn't directly affect them. they got involved for their own reasons. as i said earlier, i believe it's a muslim...

agree with ban and adam. you will need a switchfuse if you are considering using two consumer units in this way, as ban explained. as adam said, install it before the henleys. if your supply is TT, hence the RCD before the CU, this will also need to be before the henleys. SWA will be...

the fault could lie in either the wiring itself or if you're lucky, in the connections (if you're luckier, the only connections will be the sockets, which you could then examine easily). check all connections in sockets yourself, check the state of the wires.. take the fuse out and determine...

slippyr4 the problem with your analysis is that it's assumed on the earth connection being somehow damaged or broken. you could apply this thinking to any circuit, as in 'what if this cable broke?' etc., and you could end up with hundreds of possible dangers. the liklihood of broken cables is...

i think the main reason behind the bombings was simple hatred by religious muslims against western society. iraq probably did contribute, but not in a major way. just my opinion. as regards to labour, we can all change the way the country is run in a big way, if we make the government fairer...

when did she last go into season?? it is usually recommended that a spay be carried out well away from a season, as the hormones present at these times can cause complications. if she was having a phantom pregnancy before the spay, i think your vet has chosen very bad timing. if she has just...

everyday things that annoy me the most : 1) people hogging the middle/right lanes. when driving down motorways i nearly always find the left lane empty, middle lane with a couple of cars, right lane rammed full. people stay in the middle lane even though its going to take them several minutes...

the website i have recommended is excellent because they have considered arguments for and against. infact they have allowed muslims to object to their points and have posted links to muslim sites. they then make further arguments against the rebuttals and so forth. this is why i state that...

jtaunton - i didn't refer to anyone here as not being a***d. i for one don't have the time to read the koran. but there are intellectuals who have, and you can read their interpretations as a first, as i have. im not going to quote the passages here, but i'll post you some links with the...

the problem is people are being too naive. its one thing to be tolerant, and quite another to be naive about the situation that surrounds us. most of the responses ive read to the bombings is 'why?'. well find out!! there are numerous websites on the internet from which you can get a thorough...

most religions have probably gained from some kind of atrocity, maybe. but since the days of the crusades etc, science has evolved very very far, and shown us for example the earth isn't the centre of the universe, evolution, the big bang etc. we're slowly moving away from religion, and society...

i don't mean to cause any offense with what i say: the discussion between freddie and kendor is interesting. religion is the cause of nearly every major conflict, and i will agree with freddie that if you look at things on a global scale, islam is nearly always involved. israel, america...

running the earthing back to the CU is not bad, just unnecessary. if you are bonding to a circuit's earth conductor, then you have already made this connection to the CU/MET anyway. so such a connection is not infact dangerous. its unnecessary as the main reason supplementary bonding is present...

i agree with pna. breezer, i just think that a helpful reply, with a reminder that he should contact the REC directly (for the perfectly valid reasons you've given) would have been better. oh, and i never promised him it would be free either... it shouldnt be the case that people should...

it could have been worded less rudely though right?? greencoat, i can't say for sure either. however EDF don't charge for this, so i'd be surprised if you were charged for the work.

here's a guide to diversity: http://www.tlc-direct.co.uk/Book/6.2.3.htm even with it however, you'll be going over your consumer unit rating. you 'could' turn on your shower and a few other appliances, and then more than 100A could be flowing through your CU (which is only rated for 100A). in...
