    Highly recommend thermals top and bottom: http://www.kathmandu.co.nz/Mens/Baselayers/Thermals_.htm If you can afford merino wool thermals, even better. Icebreaker is one of the best merino thermals to have: http://www.icebreaker.com/site/catalog/range.html?gender=Man&range=Bodyfit

    Is this discrimination ?

    May I also know if the conversation between you and your wife (about the dessert) was audible to the staff?

    Is it M3 from US? Looks like the 90mm version. Edit: Sorry, upon further research, it looks more like the M1. Same gun as the M3 but different mount.

    Gaza aiders boarded by Isreali forces

    I was afraid someone would ask! :) IMHO, there is not one single solution but a combination of several, such as: - Trouble-making countries to stop supplying arms to terrorists. - Israel for their part, conducts a hearts and minds campaign. - The media to conduct more balanced reporting...

    Gaza aiders boarded by Isreali forces

    I would agree in general, but IMHO there are certain political agendas, and some industries (e.g. media, arms) that would happily like to see the conflicts extended. And there lies the crux- the solutions are actually not that hard to think of, but its those powerful forces at work that prevent...

    Gaza aiders boarded by Isreali forces

    I've noticed that the most of the comments here involved defending/criticising one side or the other. Human nature as it is, it's always easy to criticise but not put forward solutions. How about we put forward some constructive ideas- what should the Israelis be doing, in a way that will...

    Gaza aiders boarded by Isreali forces

    New Zealand wants Singaporeans as foreign talent! Would you go?

    Deyeno, I live in Wellington. As you know it is rather famous locally for it's sometimes wild and wet weather :thumbsd:. But where else in the world can you spot dolphins swimming in the harbour out of a CBD office window, and access great fly fishing spots just minutes out of the...

    New Zealand wants Singaporeans as foreign talent! Would you go?

    I think the higher level of bureaucracy and inefficiencies here in NZ compared to Singapore will drive most new SG immigrants crazy. The highest tax bracket is $60K at $39% :( For those looking for exciting jet-setting job opportunities and earn big $, better stay in Singapore. Big ticket items...

    How to get this photo?

    Or you can have the pitcher just hold the pose in the background and someone else (outside the frame view): - drop the ball from the top, or - throw the ball from the ground up (more likely scenario) Shoot at 1/1000-4000 wide open at 10fps.
