Internet is a wondrous tool and I use it, (ain't I a fool?)for you dear pupils, who wish to speak the Queen's English. Well, maybe not but at least, if asked whether you speak English or not, don't say: "I do not!"

MAMA HOPE and other subjects.
Mama Hope is a non-profit organization focused on building self-sufficient communities in Sub-Saharan Africa. Mama Hope partners with Community Based Organizations and invests in high impact, cost effective projects, that meet their fundamental needs.
Here is their channel.http://www.youtube.com/user/MamaHope
Watch the first video and tell me those guys don't rock. The whole world rocks actually. You know that don't you? Enjoy!! I've just discovered it thanks to Christiane Amanpour on CNN.
She is a very famous journalist and interesting personality. She was harshly criticized at the time of the Bosnian war for ... telling the truth.Read the chapter 'Bosnian War reporting'here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christiane_Amanpour if you're interested.
But...,as I was about to write: But... to go back to the subject,
my word-curious mind found that:
let's get back to the subject (at hand)/topic
Or perhaps 'let's get back to the matter in hand' or 'point' (?) There is an old expression my aunt used to use - she was born in the North of England in 1906 or so. 'To return to our muttons' - she said it when she felt we had left the point - she used it just like that, with quasi-imperative force.
Oh the web.Speaking of network thinking... It took me from my twitter account to this and to my sister but that's another story.
Enjoy Mama Hope! (Yet don't forget Fu...kushima
