nas Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 global warming is kind of ruining everything ikr?! We're looking at flooding throughout Central and southern NSW... Actually, there's a flood warning for the creek that runs through the town I'm in right now, as well as the creek that's near my home (in another town). Wonder what's going to happen with the creeks... o noes! i 'lived' through a really big flood (our house was under about 5 ft of water) back in 2005...flooding is not pretty i hope your creek holds:thumb_yello: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The school I'm working at is on a hill, so we should be okay here. The creek near my house is sort of down a hill, so unless there's major flooding I should be okay. I figure if they were worried about the road getting closed then the school would be told and we'd get told to go home (not only that, I onky have another hour or so till I finish )...

kreacher Posted March 14, 2012 Author Share Posted March 14, 2012 A little bit of god news from my corner of the world... today my city's city council passed an ordinance to make it illegal to discriminate in the workplace on the basis of sexual orientaion or gender identity (although churches are exempt). In 2010 a similar ordinance failed so this was a big victory for equal rights today the mayor has already said he's lokking forward to signing this into law Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the state of same sex marriage (or sex marriage as Mika would say ) in your state by the way? it's not legalized here most of the state seems pretty conservative so i doubt same-sex marriage will be legalized any time soon.

suzie Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 That lunatic might be on a 'mission'. I find it difficult to understand how some people's mind can be totally obscured by dogmatic thoughts. I feel sorry for the teacher and the children. I read that three of them were from the same family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read that three of them were from the same family. Indeed, incomprehensible. Yes, he was a Rabbi in that school, with two of his little children. He was living in Jerusalem where I live, and moved to France... It's definitely a sick act, hope that killer will be caught.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
