that one of the former admins (although still in power) uploaded a poorly damaged part of a poor human being as a joke!
this former admin was annoyed with a piece of art that was upoladed yesterday. but surely the former admin (who is still power) decided that its ok to use such picture as a joke.
i think we have a person whos not normal and very obssessive with certain members of TC.
we shall wait until the former admin grows up.

OMG 
I guess it doesn't matter showing a poor deformed person as a joke - just so long as they are not wearing scanty clothing.
If she truly wants to avoid stereotypes over body image, then why has she not called this person "beautiful" too, as per her other pic?

Here is the thing, Femme your's was totally funny, humorous in a playful way. I find her pic to be offensive..that poor human, whatever happened to them and their disability shouldn't be exploited on a TC Site.

It was a disgusting thing to do and that person should be ashamed.
I have been fortunate enough to have children of all capabilities in my class. Some with severe and global barriers to learning (learning in the mainstream sense of the word). But these children enrich the lives of others and they DO make contributions to society. Although they may not 'learn' in the conventional sense, they DO learn and it is wonderful to see them blossom.
btw being a doctor doesn't mean one has the moral/ethical high ground http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harold_Shipman .

More Test for British citizenship !!!
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/7253933.stm
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/7254926.stm
Prime Minister Gordon Brown said the UK should expect a "demonstration of commitment" and the process of becoming a citizen should be "more exacting".
And the big theme is that migrants will need to take extra steps to "earn" citizenship and become fully-paid up members of society.
In future, they will need to spend the next sixt(y) to eight(y) years proving their worth to the UK.
They will have to obey the law and where possible prove they are "active citizens".
Acceptable activities could include proof of voluntary work, of being involved in local groups or the school parent-teacher association. Migrants will need to find referees to vouch for these good deeds.

Phew!!!!
