Australia says SORRY to Aboriginals
Feb 13, 2008. Australia says SORRY to Aboriginals for Stolen Generations.
Prime Minister Kevin Rudd Wednesday offered an apology to indigenous Australians for the wrongs committed by the state in the past.
Amidst tears and cheers in the Federal Parliament, Rudd said the long awaited SORRY three times to members of the Stolen Generations comprising tens and thousands of children who were forcibly removed from their families between 1900 and 1970 under the Government Assimilation Policies to breed out their Aborigine blood and supposedly give them a better life.

PROCESSION OF BALINESE WOMEN CARRYING VOTIVE GIFTS ON THEIR HEADS, SUKAWATI VILLIAGE,BALI, INDONESIA
The ladies of the village. A procession through the rice fields on the way to a small Hindu temple. They are asking the gods to favour a good harvest. Bringing offerings to the gods is part of daily life. The women of Bali spend one-third of their working hours preparing and distributing votive gifts. They use food, especially rice, fruit, flowers and eggs, to create these magnificently colored works of art for the temple festivals, to give pleasure to men, gods and spirits. After the ceremony and the procession the fruits will be eaten. That's sure.

Scotland Swamp Soccer UK Championships
Teams from around the globe compete in the second annual Swamp Soccer UK Championships at Hunters Quay Holiday Village, in the Scottish seaside holiday town of Dunoon, pictured Saturday, June 16, 2007.
In the last few years Swamp Soccer (sometimes referred to as 'extreme' soccer) has increasingly become a global game. Tournaments now occur in Russia, the Netherlands, Brazil, Sweden, Iceland, and now the UK.
Swamp Soccer originates from the swamps of Finland in northern Europe. Many years ago cross country skiers were training in the swamps during the summer months, when they decided to alter their schedule by playing with a football. Though kicking a ball in marshy conditions was tough, they all had a very good time. The skiers decided to approach Jyrki Vaananen, a well known events organiser, to ask him to make Swamp Soccer an event. So in 1997 Swamp Soccer was born. In first year the tournament had 13 teams. Five years later it had become a world championship event with 260 teams. The event is now one of the biggest football tournaments on the planet.
Some of the teams taking part this weekend include Mudcabi Haifa, Bayern Bru, Fuddy Muckers, Soap Dodger, Dirty Half Dozen, Inter Themud, Northfolk & Chance, Swamp Babes and Cowdungbeath. (FOTO: DUKAS/WORLDPICTURENEWS)

Children play in the wasteland on the southern outskirts of Nahr el-Bared. 4 months passed since the fighting ended in the Palestinian refugee camp, still few of it's former residents have returned. The area was shelled continuously for 3 months by the Lebanese army during their battle with the radical insurgent group Fatah al-Islam. The 3 months of fighting caused the displacement of nearly 40,000 of the camps inhabitants and the destruction of 85% of it's buildings, according to UNRWA. (FOTO:DUKAS/POLARIS)

THE SCARPAR
This is the new skateboard being hailed as the ultimate ride for adrenaline junkies - it can tackle any terrain including mud, sand or even snow.
The Scarpar board uses two tank-like tracks to roar across tricky off-road surfaces which would prove impossible with wheels.
With a battery-powered, 8hp electric motor operated by a hand controller, the board can hit speeds of upto 37mph.
And it can even carry riders weighing as much as 110kg UP hills of up to 20 degrees.
Riders adopt the same postition as they would on a skateboard or a snowboard.
But the Scarpar's designers say that using tracks opens up the possibility of developing a whole new category of extreme sport.
Scarpar CEO Andrew Fern said: "There are a lot of bikes, all terrain vehicles, quads and motocross bikes but there's really no credible alternative off-roader for board riders.
"We aim to give our customers something that can give them that same ability to ride just about anywhere that these other vehicles can go, except on a board.
"We see ourselves as creating a new product category, not just a new product.
"There is no product at the moment where we are going so it's quite daunting in that sense - but it's hugely exciting."
Mr Fern said that the board offers more alternatives because it uses tracks rather than wheels.
