Azerbaijan has gay angels! And a goth boy! I love the Eurovision!
You know, it's funny. We went to war never looking to come back, but it's the real world I couldn't survive.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
Hello, another thread which I didn't visit/post in yet! Since I mostly post in Natter and Music, I feel like I should be introducing myself again. So, I'm Shir, I'm here because of Nilly, and I joined a few weeks (months?) ago. Hey all.
This is a shout-out for information from you guys. And I really hope it's the right place to ask for it, for I mostly need it from unAmercians guys.
I'm a volunteer of Adva Center and right now I'm helping gather information regarding medical treatment and nursing services for the elderly in other countries, mostly in Europe (but not only there) as a background material for a position paper that will eventually get published and send to the government, following some changes that have been suggested in the Israeli elderly care policy.
And this is where I need your help. I may gather every last byte from the the internet, but it won't help me to understand the situation in other countries. I have to combine the data I've been collecting and the everyday life and what happens in practice. And for that, I need your help.
I would appreciate any story, fact, thought, clarification or information you'll be able to share regarding elderly care in your/other country. In order not to get this thread spinning into another dimension of OT, you can email me at my profile addy.
Thanks!

Lurching from one disaster to the next.
Hi Shir, sorry I can't help you with any of that info.
If there are any other Aussies looking at this thread, they'll be interested to know that I just read Ten has bought the rights to the new Joss show, The Dollhouse. Nothing on when it will be screened, however.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Hey. Can I get some German -> English translation?
Looking at this posting, what do the cogent parts of the clothing description translate to?

At the bottom there's a lot of stuff about combining articles and saving postage.
It looks as if they do ship to the US, but if it makes things easier to ship to Germany let me know, ita, and we can work something out.

Thanks, Fiona. From reading their English, I think Chinese is their first language. English is kinda hairy too. They have such pretty stuff.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Wow. I think I'm in love with this one. $41 to mail to the US, but as far as I can tell they only want a starting bid of $0.98, with no bids so far, which still works out to dirt cheap unless they get an assload of bids in the next 3 hours.
Curse you, ita! If your links aren't just out and out disturbing, they're disturbingly pretty. Either way, it's wicked of you.

ita, if you search for "noble coat" or "noble jacket" on the US eBay, you'll find lots of sellers with jackets like that.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
JZ, that's stunning.
Very Inara.
...God, you guys are bad influences. I'm going to end up going back to my tailor and getting another jacket made at this rate...
