    Meanwhile, Welsh Assembly member Carwyn Jones said that, in analysing recent statistics, people were confusing Bridgend, the former mining town, with the larger Bridgend county.

     

    'We are talking about suicides in a county of more than 130,000 people, not just the town of Bridgend. What we're looking at here, it seems, is a number of unrelated suicides. And it's worth emphasising that Bridgend is not way, way ahead of others,' he said.

     

    Recent research at Swansea University shows that the county had only the sixth highest rate for suicides in Wales, and local coroner Philip Walters has reviewed recent deaths and concluded there is no evidence of the internet playing any direct part.

    I needed advise here. Just the other day, i had McOmelette at Mcdo. Halfway eaten, i found something in the garlic rice. I asked my friend to take a look at it and said that it's a 1-cm sized worm. Good thing that i eat slow, for if not i had eaten that thing. I asked the manager on duty to take a look at it. And she herself affirmed that it was a worm, she said: " That's probably from the rice. May i have it so i can use as specimen and we'll bring it to our supplier to further check."

     

    Believe it or not guys...it's true. i even took pictures of that worm in my food. I just wanted to know what move to make to settle this. Because until now, we still don't have any response from them yet.

     

    If you guys have ideas, please email me at: purplstain@yahoo.com; i am by the way located in the Philippines.

     

    Thanks!

     

    Gary Glitter gets this sort of thing all the time, but you don't hear him moaning and groaning about it. Consider yourself lucky you were given a free extra.

    Mikhail Gorbachev is 75 today - does anyone have an info on his health?

    Yeltsin has check-up at German heart clinic

    12:22 | 02/ 03/ 2006

     

     

     

    BERLIN, March 2 (RIA Novosti, Olga Semenova) - Former Russian leader Boris Yeltsin has had a check-up at a German heart center, the clinic said Thursday.

     

    "Yeltsin comes in for a check-up with Professor Roland Hetzer every year, following the 1996 operation on his aorta," a clinic representative said. He added that the results could not be disclosed, citing professional ethics.

     

    "For his age, and taking into account his heart's workload, Yeltsin looks good. You should ask him how he feels, though."

     

    Health problems dogged Yelstin throughout his second term in office, and he underwent major heart surgery in 1996. The former president celebrated his 75 birthday in February.

    Not entirely sure what that means but I think he's trying to say the man's a wreck.
