  • Up Front: Good Friends,

    On average, it takes seven attempts to leave an abusive relationship. Don’t think this is going to be a week where you help them leave, and then everything will be happily ever after. This is going to be a long process. It’s going to be hard.

    I think this is something a lot of people forget. It will take a long time... and leaving an such a relationship is just the start.

    Coles said her research had found nothing to back up predictions that cocaine-exposed babies were doomed for life. “As a society we say, ‘Cocaine is bad and therefore it must cause damage to babies,’ ” Coles said. "When you have a myth, it tends to linger for a long time."

    We need more of this kind … In many aspects of our lives.

    still seems to me one dimensional, But hey, I dont model myself on any rugby player. Just shoot'n the breeze

    what signal does it send the people of New Zealand

    That is part of the problem people seem to think they can take a lead from sports people. Who never have been and never will be great role models.
    That includes RM, OK maybe Stanley Matthews. Well should I say, few and far between.

  • Hard News: Rape and unreason,

    that’s the reality of it.

    align with reality.

    So lets all just lie back and accept the realities of life as they are.
    Is that what you are saying?
    All I see is lowlifes justifying their position. And that goes for Bob Jones as well.
