Flirting - A Betrayal Of Trust

by: Samson Itoje

Flirting is as old as man. In the past, flirting was viewed with disgust and a flirt was
considered out of tune with morality. But things have since changed.

Today, flirting is glamorized.

stress. The internet has magnified this.

Some web sites promote what is called discreet flirting. Such web sites connect men and
women, married or single, and enc

Social Housing Finance for Housing the Poor?

by: Vincent Wilmot

The need for affordable housing for the relatively poor.

In many countries, including the UK and USA, acceptable housing cannot be afforded by lower-income families unless subsidised rent ‘affordable housing‘ or ‘social housing‘ is made available.
