Apparently she’s also a film star. Vide: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-LopL_tORKI&annotation_id=annotation_521406&feature=iv. (1:31) Her partner also stars.

Watch all the TV discussion programmes, and “hey presto” there she is.

It is also the Party with the last two Leaders holding a PhD.
I recently found this which I liked.

A banner on one of those containers bore the leged “31 tonnes of daily toxic waste” – let us assume it is all fly-ash.

Fly-ash weighs 143.52lbs per cubit foot (the information I have is given in the Imperial system).

31 tonnes are 70,000lbs. A thousand pounds convert to 453.592kg, and that’s assuming Muscat’s tonnes are metric and not Imperial. So we’re looking at 13.592 cubic metres.

A Standard 20 container has a volume of about 33 cubic metres. A Standard 40 container has a volume of about 68 cubic metres.

This means that the fly-ash generated in a week would fit into 2.9 Standard 20 containers.

Shall we ask the Auditor to investigate the difference?

Or we can ask Astrid.

What the hell does his MBA dissertation have any value or contribution nowadays. You need consultants with vast experience, acknowledge and a track record of achievements with the world renowned corporations of energy generation companies.

Imagine what the results would be if they were to manage this country according to their supporters’ hypothetical dissertations or theses.

Then the media and The People repeat the negative criticism without knowing its full meaning.

Take the new power station as a case in point. The critics in politics and the media mix up terms such as “gas turbine”, “heavy fuel oil”, “light fuel oil”, etc.

A gas turbine is a gas turbine and has nothing to do with the type of fuel used by the power station. I suggest that doctors should stick to medicine and lawyers to law and appoint engineers to comment about technology. What do Marie Louise Coleiro Preca and Marlene Pullicino Orlando know about power stations?

[Daphne – Marlene Pullicino Orlando knows about power stations by osmosis. She’s friends with Tarcisio Mifsud, who was finance manager at Enemalta and is now on the same band club committee as her paRRRRRtneRRRRRR Godfrey Farrugia. Don’t forget that she presented his MBA dissertion to parliament, 11 years after he wrote it.]
