  1. What? If one is born in North America, or Europe, and you are a white male you are born into a position of privilege. The position of power awaits, but maybe / hopefully not for long. I am saying this as a white male born in Canada. I am tempted to add something, but won't. This thread is turning into a big enough disaster already.
  2. Fair point. If I were to get into it I could come up with an arguement that one walking into a random bar and behaving as you suggested is actually doing so from a position of power, or privilage, over the other. It would not be hard to do.
  3. Of course not. This thread is not about that and neither was my comment.
  4. I would hope so, yes.
  5. Harassment / exploitation of any kind, most often it is sexual, can only happen when there is a person in a position of power and / or influence over another. It does not have to be in a business setting, nor does it have to be white males, although often it is. Bottom line in this case is ... something happened and a white male was compelled to resign over it.
  6. I know some Arabic and that's not it.
  7. This is terrible behavior. They should feel shame. I hope they do, but they probably just lament the fact that they were watched and actually, by the sounds of it, finally ratted out.
  8. I have mentioned a few times my wife's health challenges. She has a very difficult life and we are coming to the conclusion, based on our own research and experiences, that this is what she has ... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mast_cell_activation_syndrome It is extremely hard to get a diagnosis as most health care professionals know very little about it. There are no specialists in Canada, as far as I know, for sure none in Halifax. My wife's pain specialist has heard of it, but knows nothing of it and is retiring soon. Below is a 60 Minutes Australia (which is very good) segment on a young woman with a very severe case. My wife is not this bad, but at times is very close to this ... The couple in the video above are amazing. He is a very good man and really lives his wedding vows every single day. Have any of our health care professionals here ever heard of this condition?
  9. A third, or second, round pick maybe. Maybe a low level prospect. Not much.
  10. Oh, yeah!! Great win!! I am off the snide, yea me!! VICTORY!! Oh, and good game by the Sabres, eh?
  11. Scary stuff. Glad he is OK. He is a good guy by all accounts.
  12. Has he called a timeout yet? Phil could move players around more, but the end result will be the same with this group of players, which is what @nfreeman was getting at, which I know you know. For years you were saying that the roster was the problem, why not now? It is vastly improved, but still has a long way to go.
  13. I told you so. You must have time on your hands to actually seek out documentation and proof. You should just listen to your NS. Even if I am wrong, which is most of the time, it will still sound good, well at least some of the time.
  14. OK, but as those type of references go that one is pretty obscure, IMO. It's not like some of them that have become part of our everyday, everything.
  15. It actually was until that crazy Roman Emperor (I forget which one) added a few months in there. I think it was Augusto, who added August and July for his uncle Julius. Something like that anyway.
  16. Liverpool awaits, my friend. We will gladly take your support. Liverpool still on top of the table 4 points clear of Man C. Man U better not make the top 4 after their horrible start to this season. I will be very pissed if that comes about.
  17. Where is this supermarket that you are lost in? 6 more weeks is still February, which is still winter for most of us.
  18. That is soon ... Both have 2 more years, IMO. Well, Phil has next season for sure.
  19. Your post is OK, but I just gave you a like for the Costello quote. @SABRES 0311 neither JBOT, not Coachie Philie are going anywhere anytime soon, except maybe the golf course in April.
  20. Wrong!! It was me that said that, not the charts. In the OP. Yup, it was all me.
  21. Outstanding!! Quite obscure reference, but I bet TrueBlue will get it.
