Turkish Airlines has twice won the Skytrax awards for Europe's Best Airline, Southern Europe's Best Airline, and the World's Best Premium Economy Class Airline Seat in 2011 and 2012.[33][34] Also Turkish Airlines has been selected Airline of the Year by Air Transport News in Atn awards 2013 ceremony.[35]

I also don't know what the hell "Turkish Delight" is. I think it's a candy. Do you know?

I heard, but not from what I would consider a completely reliable source, that Muslims are usually buried lying on their side, and that it's because there is a restriction on the width of a grave that's too narrow to lie most people flat.
Is that - or was it ever - true?
I don't mean any disrespect, I promise, but ever since I heard that I've had this image of people trying to bury a really fat Muslim...

Is that Aegean sea sui generis? What are the legal criteria for classifying things that way?

aviel wrote:Right, my question is to whether the Aegean sea actually does qualify for sui generis.
