SAPS with R130 billion budget and modern resources fail to enforce the law. Something Zimbabwean police do with only sticks and worn-out uniform. The lawlessness is deliberate
Thomas Fuller was taken from Africa to America as a teenager, but his mind carried a gift that people could not ignore.
Born around 1710 and brought to Virginia when he was about 14, Fuller became known as an extraordinary mental calculator.
People later called him the Virginia Calculator because of his astonishing ability to solve complex arithmetic in his head.
When he was an older man, members of the Pennsylvania Abolition Society, including William Hartshorne and Samuel Coates, tested his abilities.
They asked questions that would challenge most people even with paper.
Fuller answered with speed and accuracy that amazed those around him.
One famous problem asked how many seconds were in a very long span of years.
He worked it out mentally and corrected the people testing him when they had forgotten to account for leap years.
That detail is what makes his story unforgettable.
It was not only speed.
It was understanding.
Fuller had not received the kind of formal education that should have matched his talent, yet his natural numerical ability remained remarkable.
His story reminds us that genius can exist in places society fails to recognize.
It can live in people whose opportunities were limited, whose names were almost left out, and whose gifts still found a way to be seen.
Thomas Fuller’s legacy is not just about arithmetic.
It is about the human mind’s power to shine even when the world around it does not provide a fair stage.
What a disgusting, repellent, racist pig. We all stand with you @KMbappe against this shameful woman who I sincerely hope is hounded out of her job asap. How the hell is she an elected senator in Paraguay?
@LCabonena Now I see the reason Mozambique people flock to South Africa. You chasing away tourists, people who've brought money to your country. Bad move on their side. Many will be coming to SA as unemployment will rise.
In 1911 a mob dragged Laura Nelson and her 14 year old son from Jail. Raped her. Hanged them both from a bridge. Then sold photographs of their bodies as postcards. Her crime was protecting her son and being black
Who is Helen Zille coming to serve here in Joburg?
Ask residents of Cape Town, not what has been fed to South Africans.
The days of misinformation are over.
Madame Celeste Amarilla,
Vous êtes une femme méprisable et indigne de sa fonction.
Vous ne représentez pas le Paraguay, ce pays qui a transpiré la passion et l’honneur tout au long de la compétition. Par votre inconscience et votre racisme décomplexé, le monde entier a déjà oublié le parcours et l’effort historique que vos joueurs ont réalisés durant cette coupe du monde pour laisser place à une dame incompétente donnant la pire image possible de son pays.
Je ne laisserai jamais aux gens comme elle, la liberté de laisser propager leur haine et leur racisme à travers le monde.
