Mary Ball Washington was born in Lancaster County, Virginia, in 1708 to Joseph Ball and Mary Montague Johnson Ball. Each of her parents had been previously married and had children by their previous marriages. The family home was Epping Forest. Her grandfather, William Ball, had been born in England and had immigrated to Virginia around 1650.

Thought you might be interested in this silent.

So was his father and his grandfather. His great-grandfather was born in Essex.

So when Geroge Bush visted the home of UK's past Prime Minister recently and he pointed out that it was the birth place, I wonder where he got this information from.

But then like everything American's won the war finished the fight defeated the foe built it first.

My brother in law was treated that way at school. Eventually they diagnosed him with dyslexia. He is one of those people who is not academic in any way shape or form but can do just about anything he turns his hand to if he wants, same as his father (my father in law). Trouble is his writing and speech make people prejudge him, so getting a job can be hard because he even has trouble filling in forms.

I also have a friend who is illiterate - can't read or write other than to sign his name. But give him a welder and he is a magician. He also finds it hard to get a job because he is judged by his poor ability with language and writing. People think he is dumb too. Now he isn't the sharpest tool in the shed by a long stretch but he has a very keen mechanical mind and is capable of top work when they give him the chance.

I suppose this goes back to that discussion about IQ tests.

I have no idea what he might have been talking about - you know what GW Bush is like with mangling sentences. Maybe he was trying to say it was the birth place of democracy or something...

I may be wrong and if you can be bothered doing the research feel free to contradict me but I think the Sydney Harbour bridge is the original. The same architect was used for both bridges. The Sydney bridge was started first but the Newcastle bridge was completed first due to it's much smaller size.

Here here. It's about time would be employers, took into consideration peoples real capabilities and talents rather than judging them by a piece of paper which really doesn't give a clue as to the quality of work they can do. Whatever happened to the days when people were given a chance to prove what they could do by giving them a job and let their work speak for itself. I get so annoyed when here of someone who has been knocked back without being given the chance to show what they can do.
I did some property developing in Sydney and some of the best floor tiling work I had done was by a guy who didn't have any high qualifications but boy he could lay tiles like no other tiler I used before.

The Tyne Bridge was designed by Mott, Hay and Anderson who based their design on the Sydney Harbour Bridge, which in turn derived its design from the Hell Gate Bridge in New York.
