I think stereotypes are funny sometimes. I don't like stereotypes, but i find myself stereotyping people sometimes. I think it's normal and its a part of our life. It's hard to but aside all the stereotyping too. Stereotyping can be useful sometimes. I don't think stereotyping people can be harmful, you just got to remember that it's not always true.

Gandhi
Mahatma Gandhi is known for his non-violent form of protesting when he fought for India's independence in the 20th century. India gained its independence in 1947. India remained a Hindu country, while Muslims got their own country, Pakistan.
Gandhi's life came to an end in 1948, when he was on his way to his evening prayer meeting. He was shot by a Hindu radical, named Nathuram Godse. Godse meant that Gandhi was responsible for weakening India. He and his partner, Narayan Apte, got convicted later, and executed in 1949.

Threats to the Reef
The Great Barrier Reef is the word's largest reef system and is located in the Coral Sea.
Scientists are saying that the reef will die soon and the biggest threat are the rising sea temperatures. Humans have also brought some big changes and many things that we do on the Reef and the land, threats the Reef's ecosystem.
Reserach shows that toursism doesn't affect the Great Barrier Reef in a bad way, because it is spread over such a lagre sea. It's actually because of the tourism, there is watchdogs, alerting manaement authorities and lot of interests in the health of the Reef. Fishing is also carefully managed. The biggest threats actually come from human activities on land.
I really don't know so much about this, neither do i care, but i do think it's sad that the world's biggest single structure made by living organisms, is threaten because of us.

Streets with no names in Kabul
Kabul is a city of more than four million people, and only a few streets have names or house numbers. The postman gets letters with directions, which simply states, "Hamid Jaan, behind Darul-Aman palace". ''Sometimes it takes hours to deliver a letter'' Ahmed says. He crosses the city by bike and has to find the right adress based on personal knowledge and help from the locals.
Streets in Kabul are slowly beginning to get names and numbers.
I think this is interesting and funny, but i feel bad for the postman.
