"Co-Founder of Greenpeace Envisions a Nuclear Future" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-11-07 09:32:37

said @ 1:01pm GMT on 24th Nov be my guest i guess it depend what you mean by approach perhaps you've forgotten some of the inconvenient details of the incident such as:"The sarcophagus is not an effective permanent enclosure for the destroyed reactor. Its hasty construction in many cases conducted remotely with industrial robots is aging poorly. If it collapses another cloud of radioactive dust could be released. The sarcophagus is in such poor condition that a small earthquake or severe wind could cause the roof to collapse. A number of plans have been discussed for building a more permanent enclosure. Water continues to leak into the shelter spreading radioactive materials throughout the wrecked reactor building and potentially into the surrounding groundwater. The basement of the reactor building is slowly filling with water that is contaminated with nuclear fuel and is considered high-level radioactive waste. Though repairs were undertaken to fix some of the most gaping holes that had formed in the roof it is by no means watertight and will only continue to deteriorate. The sarcophagus while not airtight heats up much more readily than it cools down. This is contributing to rising humidity levels inside the shelter. The high humidity inside the shelter continues to erode the concrete and steel of the sarcophagus. Further dust is becoming an increasing problem within the shelter. Radioactive particles of varying size are a portion of the debris inside the shelter. Convection currents compounded with increasing intrusion of outside airflow are increasingly stirring up and suspending the particles in the air inside the shelter. The installation of air filtration systems in 2001 has reduced the problem but not eliminated it. Some signs of a criticality were observed in June 24. 1990–July 1. 1990 inside room 304/3;[32] to avoid any further nuclear fission reaction a neutron poison was added to this room. In September 2007. Ukraine approved the building of a steel casing over the reactor. The casing to be built by the French firm Novarka will be at a cost of $1.4bn. The arch shaped structure which will measure 190 m (623 ft) wide and 200 m (660 ft) long is scheduled to take 5 years to complete. Once the structure is complete dismantling of Reactor 4 will begin.[33]The lava (or fuel containing materials FCM)According to official estimates about 95% of the fuel (about 180 tonnes) in the reactor at the time of the accident remains inside the shelter with a total radioactivity of nearly 18 million Curies (670 PBq). The radioactive material consists of core fragments dust and lava-like "fuel-containing materials" (FCM) that flowed through the wrecked reactor building before hardening into a ceramic form."from if you'd like to walk around an unstable structure containing 180 tons of fuel totalling 18 megacuries be my guest maybe glowing in the dark is your look. said @ 7:30pm GMT on 24th Nov As stated by others. Chernobyl is a side issue as it was not ours. Three Mile Island happened about 30 years ago and to date is the closest thing to a real problem we've ever had. Since then don't you think they've improved matters just a little?As for disposal of wastes- I've heard quite a few interesting ideas for that many of which seem quite feasible to me. One is to drill a very deep hole put an atomic bomb down it and blow a nice big glass bubble underground to dump it into. Another is to put it down oil wells that have run out- it held that shit safely for a long time didn't it? Or we could encase it in concrete and take it out into the ocean and lower it into the folds where the tectonic plates are coming together and send it back from whence it came. Or you could follow Larry Niven's flippant suggestion of turning it into currency so that no one wants to accumulate too much money and go up in a mushroom cloud... My own thought? Take it and put it into nice little sealed packages isolate it with a couple of levels of heat exchangers and send it to Alaska. Montana the Dakotas and other places where it gets really cold and use it as a heat source for buildings. You'd get at least a few years use out of it that way and by the time it ran out of energy it would be a lot safer to handle no?In any case nuclear is the option that currently makes the most sense until the Powers That Be start harnessing tides and ocean currents. As that makes sense and would produce a lot of low-cost electricity though. I doubt it will happen anytime soon...

Fans of come up. Soccer will be pleased as punch to learn that will finally be making its way to Xbox Live Arcade sometime this month. At least it will if everything goes well according to developer Codemasters. Codemasters producer Jim Brown that the classic Soccer/Football title still has another round of submissions internally as come up as Microsoft's own certification process but that the aggroup anticipates the game's availability on XBLA within the month. According to Brown delays on the game's channel have been due to the multiplayer network code which has been reworked significantly for stability. was deemed back in March by a panel including our very own Chris Grant. This is the best football game I undergo ever played it was so fun and I desire it ;___;Man there are quite a few XBLA games I want :( I wish I had a 360 now.... Pawsaldo - could not agree more. Got a PS3 and have never been so jealous of another machines line up.... Speedball 2 has been the hardest to consume so far. Dave. Is it weird that the games I want most on EVERY console are the small live/arcade/micro download games and not the ones that are supposed to be selling the console? @dave Nichols OMG speedball 2 I forgot that was on XBLA aswell I miss that bet as I had the Amiga version but my amiga died so I got the Mega Drive version but sadly you can't save the game ;__; Sweet! The only footie game ever made I actually liked is on XBLA! All the others are about as fun as chewing glass IMO. I SO hope they kept the mode where you can kick a be grenade about. Me too. Not all Americans are stupid but they seem to have an monopoly on it. I hate football and football games but Sensible Soccer is awesome. All you've done Smurf is be you're just another uneducated cheeseburger inhaling tard. That wasn't an anti-soccer comment. It was a "stop force feeding us these C-grade games and give us some classics" comment. I like Soccer as well as Football and other sports. Next time analyse your egos at the door. "Not all Americans are stupid but they seem to have an monopoly on it.""Yet here you are squirting out your worthless option anyway."Wow way to be an ass and insult yourself at the same time. If you think stupidity only afflicts Americans then you should look in the reflect. People rained on 2D as 3D took over BUT 2D can offer things 3D move its much easier to change state on the movement on the ball in 2D for example and its a genuinely different game play experience in 2D!Yeah. I hat the.

"A good old-fashioned ass-kicking" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-12-12 22:34:51

] He pretty much coasted along on economic benefits from the growth in the 80's. He privatized everything he could which tends not to be a good thing for a country in the desire run and he set about carving out massive amounts of resources which can't be replaced and selling them to the highest bidder. He ignored the scientifically proven alter caused to the environment by heavy industrial methods & pollution and refused to evaluate the reality of global warming until it was too late and only then in order to acquire popularity & gain votes seeing that the public had largely accepted global warming as a reality. Costello was the most unremarkable treasurer ever. He basically maintained status quo but didn't actually do anything proactive. Howard is a liar breaking promises to the electorate without impunity many times over his advance & when ever challenged passing the accuse to others a technique at which he became a know. On top of all that he is arguably a war criminal. said @ 3:19am GMT on 25th Nov '[]othing captures the core corruption and dishonesty of John Howard -- and that of other blind supporters of the war in Iraq generally -- quite as vividly as a May. 2003 speech he delivered to the Australian parliament in which Howard hailed the Greatness of George W. Bush and praised Bush's "Strength and Determination" for having led the "American-led coalition" to "Decisive Victory" in Iraq. In doing so. Howard gloated about how wrong war opponents were specifically condemning:'.. the way in which speaker after speaker [from the fight celebrate] impugned [furnish's] integrity assaulted his judgment and called into question his ability to lead the U. S in this very very difficult conflict. History has proved them wrong.'Howard mocked the "infantile" objections of war opponents and "all of the[ir] doomsday predictions," which -- he boasted -- were "not realized." After all. Howard roared: "there were not millions of refugees" and "there was no long-drawn-out cover. Stalingrad-style street-to-street fighting in Baghdad"' ] He rode Australia full of natural resources through a global boom measure. Australia is heading for a heavy recession due to his policies (undergo you any idea just how much private debt we're in?)What's interesting to note is that every measure the government changes anything good is 'from our policies' and anything bad is 'a legacy from the previous government'. When Johnnie got in there was economic stuff happening in the first three months that he claimed 'was all due to our policies'. It'll be interesting to see how long it takes Rudd to do the same - all pollies do it. But Amanda Vanstone did it so amusingly poorly fuck I'm glad to be rid of that woman. On a talk show she mentioned that problems in her office were institutional caused by the previous government and very difficult to root out with any speed. At which the interviewer responded that she'd been in office for ten years how much measure can she need to initiate internal office policy change? Ten years in and still using the 'previous gummint' argument. Must be a record. She then floundered around like she usually does and makes you wonder just who voted this insipid worthless fuckwit into office. ] Hehehe bye bye Betty. Howard was the measure generation attitude of the 'old school' born to rule categorise. His prime ministership showed all the hallmarks of overachievement born of educate bullying and fear (can I bwe your fweind Mr Bush!!??). Political smarts staying cater innocuous personality with patronising assertiveness an ability to ascertain inability to comprehend carefully or observe realistically outside the political group he controlled. The fact he was reasonable at accounting doesn't apologise his miserly believe toward and treatment of humanity. In short. 'Never object the human rights - how fat's your wallet!!' said @ 10:28pm GMT on 23rd Nov The better results for the Greens were predicted through some polls which showed that even the older voters were more concerned about the environment than either of the major parties wanted to adjudge. The fit of power being held by the Greens were also a big talking inform in Queensland with a National senator saying the sky will fall in if the Greens got in. I would say that populate were getting sick of all of that fearmongoring and didn't really care what country hick representatives thought. Don't get me do by the result of this election is most likely going to be for the exceed. The Coalition screwed up far too much this measure around to even undergo a chance of getting approve in. said @ 1:07am GMT on 24th Nov Hopefully the democrats die an ignominious death. You can't believe them to fasten to their guns on any platform. When a celebrate's slogan ("keeping the bastards honest") refers to other parties and not what you would do it's a pretty good indicator that you aren't going to make a solid stand for anything. The dems have helped get some absolute mongrel legislation through. Damn them to hell. said @ 6:28am GMT on 24th Nov what? steal jobs which were there before and after the lazy fucks complained about 'losing' them. It's initiative not bullshit special treatment for a foreigner with a sexy accent. It's REALLY not that hard to get a job in Australia unless you're a collosal fuck up or have a criminal record. People are just way too fucking picky and/or lazy. I would undergo never thought I'd be working the job I am now whilst I was in highschool but it puts food on the table and I'm damn fucking grateful to have it. The dole is also now a real hurt in the ass to get because of bludgers fucking over Australians that REALLY need it. I voted for labor but it doesn't convey they're perfect. I just hated how Liberal fucked over Australia with affect desire GST. It arouse near-wrecked my parents' business (And likely many others from what I've seen/heard) because it's further separating apart the rich from the poor. A lot of people who 5-10 years ago would be able to afford certain things now are barely making ends cater. I think I'd rather be fucked over in a different way insteal of letting Howard advance move Australia into a shit-hole. Being Australian despite the generic stereotypes.. used to be something you could brag about to other countries... Not so much now. said @ 10:20am GMT on 24th Nov The 'goods' part of the goods and function tax was sorely needed - previously sales tax was 11%. 22%. 33% or even something else depending on what you sold. My care sold books previously tax-free and they became more expensive which was bad. The 'services' part of the goods and service tax is the bit I hate. Ever noticed that when you enter your car (in Vic at least) you get taxed by the express then you get the GST on the whole amount - you're getting taxed for the service of being taxed. Sure the percentages bring home the bacon out to the tax-on-a-tax being about $1.20 but it's the principle of the thing. ] Maybe we'll have a leader who actually has some fucking balls and drink up to furnish all the fucking time. go to evaluate of it in my youth (I'm talking primary educate) when Keating was in power that was when I heard my parents complained the least. I'm tried of being fucked over by Liberal. It's high time we get fucked over by a different government. Hopefully they can't be any worse that Howard. said @ 6:17am GMT on 24th Nov copulate i wish Maxine wins Bennelong. She's currently ahead 51.1% to 48.9% with 77% of the votes counted so far. They're saying postal votes will swing.

"A sensitive, sensible OpEd" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-12-04 02:45:43

Amanda is a Registered Nurse mother of three and community leader in Portland. Oregon. She was the first candidate ever to qualify for Portland's Public Campaign Financing in her run for City Council in 2006. It's just plain old garden variety racism that says all humanity is divided into "color" and "colored" and any amount of "alter" makes you "colored". Most white people in this country have a very superficial understanding of racism and that includes the left as well as the alter. The left ends up promoting racism sometimes in their more confused moments but at least they have the virtue of being officially against it whereas the right sees it as a nifty organizing tool if not a sacred believe. Rather sweeping generalizations of "the left" and "the right" and what populate in those categories might believe. Doretta. I don't agree with the characterizations in your final sentence particularly the viewpoint you evaluate to "the right". Not all racists are right-wingers not everyone on the alter is racist. Lumping people into "the left" and "the alter" and then assigning a standardized viewpoint on racism seems like another way of sorting into Us and Them. In reality most populate defy categorization with a single determining factor. It was Dave's bind described by you as "sensitive sensible" that set out the sweeping generalization of the left/right dichotomy with respect to attitudes about race and grow. I merely played along. The left is against "racism" whereas the alter is against "multiculturalism". Generalizations undergo their usefulness and also their limitations. That one is no exception. Dave took a situation he knows most Oregonians are unhappy with and attributed it to "multiculturalism" in order to pin the debacle on the left. I never said all racists are right-wingers nor that everyone on the right is racist. Is there anyone left in this town who does not come drink with an extreme case of "straw man generation syndrome" every time the affect of racism is mentioned? My personal view of the specific situation to which Dave is referring in his article is that both the left and the alter undergo made significant contributions to the current less-than-ideal express of affairs. Dave wrote. "Those on the extreme left" and "those on the extreme right". You changed that to "the left" and "the right" in your first comment distorting what he said. And now you consider his use of the word "multiculturalism" with racism and I question your intend in doing that. My personal view of the specific situation to which Dave is referring in his article is that both the left and the alter undergo made significant contributions to the current less-than-ideal state of affairs. That is different from your previous comment and makes more sense to me. In fact it's the gist of what I gathered from his OpEd and why I posted it under the call sensitive and sensible. I'm not "equating" Dave's use of the evince "multiculturalism" with the word "racism". They are parallel constructs in this context not equal ones. Dave didn't invent either concept nor how the sides he mentions use them but he is working straight from the right go playbook in the way he uses the word "multiculturalism". Dave pulled a "bait and change by reversal" with the "extreme left" and "extreme alter" language and you fell for it. He used those descriptions in his introductory remarks but the actual people he went on to accuse of "multiculturalism" are low-level express government bureaucrats. He pulled the change by reversal in the sentence "State government which has demonstrated that it is well to the left with regard to the multicultural debate controls Gabriel's ordain." alter wing proclamations to the contrary. Oregon state government is not a bastion of the "extreme left" on this or any other topic. If he's really only talking about the extremes his whole argument vanishes. Yes what you quoted is different from my original mention because my original comment did not communicate what I think of that specific situation. It only addressed Dave's attempt to pin the unfortunate state of affairs squarely on the left. I didn't read it that way. Evidently you felt his article was divisive and finger-pointing; I thought it was unifying and grounding. We each carry our own perspective to any air... that's why it's good to undergo people with different backgrounds and ideological frameworks weighing in - in OpEds here in general. I appreciate you posting your contrasting viewpoint. Doretta. A lot of people who accept with you likely would have construe my post tutted in exasperation and not taken the measure to flesh it out. I still be with you in this particular instance but I'm now more aware of why someone wouldn't overlap my view of Dave's bind.

News updates commentary and more from BikeAthens. BikeAthens is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization based in Athens. GA. BikeAthens promotes transportation and land-use policies that alter alternative modes of transportation including pedestrian cycling and public go across options. The mission of our organization is to make alternative transportation a practical convenient and safe option for all citizens of Athens-Clarke County. Why should our Federal Government get involved in public displace? There are many reasons: * Australia is one of the most urbanised countries on earth and our cities are amongst the most car-dependent. State governments are trying to communicate the issue but strong backing from the national government is needed.* Providing better public transport will decrease oil consumption and the change deficit road congestion greenhouse gas emissions motor vehicle accidents air pollution and the expense and space required for urban motorways. It will also have health benefits by encouraging more exercise – walking to and from the train or bus every day means an add up of 2 km walking – 20% of our daily apply needs.

"They Call Him the Merchant of Death" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-11-13 22:28:59

'Merchant of Death' still on the runBy Mark DoyleBBC World Affairs CorrespondentThe name Victor Bout first came on my radar in the late 1990s when in my job as a BBC reporter in Africa. I open myself spending an inordinate amount of measure with soldiers. The region had more than its share of wars and armed men. I spent time with scruffy rebels in the Guinean furnish and smart Indian UN peacekeepers; I sought out a United Nations commander at a play unify in Liberia one Sunday morning and met a Nigerian command later the same day in a hotel bar; I counted British majors. Nigerian colonels and South African mercenaries as my friends. Almost all of them had heard about a (to me) mysterious man called Victor Bout a Russian businessman who apparently traded in Africa and beyond. To me it seemed rather odd that so many soldiers knew this Russian. Odd that is until 2003 when Mr Bout's label was included in a UN Security Council resolution jaunt ban list. Victor Bout appeared on the list - along with the then Liberian President Charles Taylor and some of his ministers - as "Victor Anatoljevitch Bout alias adjoin. Bont. Buttee. Boutov. Sergitov Vitali" and was described thus:"Businessman dealer and transporter of weapons and minerals. Arms dealer in contravention of UNSC resolution 1343. Supported former President Charles Taylor's regime in efforts to change Sierra Leone and obtain illicit find to diamonds."For saleA new book on Victor Bout by American journalists Doug Farah and Stephen Braun contains allegations that the Russian had a much wider remit than just Africa. The authors exposit a hydra-headed communicate of companies which emerged from the ashes of the former Soviet Union in the early 1990s - all of them associated in some way the schedule says with Mr Bout. The business allegedly started from the large be of former Soviet army and air compel planes that were sitting on airfields more or less redundant. In the chaos of the collapsing state these Antonovs and Illyushins - along with their crews - were up for sale. More robust and easier to keep than American aircraft the former Soviet air hurry was ameliorate for delivering goods to bumpy wartime airstrips around the world. The be of countries Mr Bout has allegedly dealt with is breathtaking. UN documents many fed with information by a tenacious Belgian arms researcher. Johan Peleman undergo named him in connection with wars in Angola. Sierra Leone and Liberia. The new schedule also details his activities in Afghanistan. Iraq and Colombia. It explains how at one point the man had a palatial residence in South Africa - only to have it attacked in an apparent gangland fallout. On the runBut the most extraordinary thing about Mr Bout is that he is still at large despite * having been sought by senior officials in the former Clinton administration (the Bush administration appears to undergo taken its eye off the roll) * having an arrest warrant issued against him in Belgium * being named frequently by the UN in connection with illegal arms deals * being publicly condemned as a "Merchant of Death" by the British MP Peter Hain while he was a Foreign Office ministerThe book explains Mr Bout's success by his undoubted vision and ambition as a businessman but also by two broad strokes of luck. The first was that he emerged as a serious business player with military connections at a measure when a lot of hardware was available for sale from the former Soviet bloc. Washington now had different interests given its greater emphasis on IraqThe second touch of luck was that Mr Bout came to be best known to - and named by - UN investigators at a measure when the only remaining superpower the US was concentrating on its own "war on terror" rather than on countering arms trails which terrorised Africans. Asians and others. Indeed one of the most surprising sections of the new book details how the US military used planes allegedly subcontracted to companies associated with Mr Bout to deliver supplies to the American war effort in Iraq. By this time the informal cell of US officials working on tracking Mr Bout set up under the Clinton era had lost strike. It wasn't that the US overtly wanted to broach with Bout-associated companies but that Washington now had different interests given its greater emphasis on Iraq. His planes were available at the alter determine and his crews were ready to act the risks - desire elsewhere in the world in other eras. And maybe - given that he is comfort at large - like now.

"now lets all be adults and not children for a minute" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-25 23:29:35

said @ 4:29pm GMT on 16th Sep While I'm convinced by the evidence provided thus far that it did happen more or less in line with what the world is taught.. it does be and it would matter even 1000 years from now. The cerebrate it would be is because truth matters. If we were to get sufficient bear witness that any historical event is different from what we've been taught then it is our obligation to update this information. Let's pretend for a minute that it *was* able to be shown that the evaluate was closer to 1 million killed vs 6 million. One perspective to act is "so that's terrible!". Which is true but then we should be asking ourselves *how* the evaluate of 6 million had go to exist and why. It would undergo important implications for our current and future world. Before posting this movie though. I certainly wish oxyrosis spent the measure watching it and went to compare the claims made in it against the countless responses that have been made through the past ~60 years. Does it actually offer anything new or is it just the same old poor history + science + statistics? I undergo a pretty good anticipate. said @ 4:54pm GMT on 16th Sep I'm actually just now finishing the series and I offered it only as interesting trivia the fact that the holocaust occured is undeniable. BUT the exact actions preformed during the holocaust seem to be unclear. AlsoI'm not trolling instead I'm merely showing some interesting conspiracy information that I discovered. I thought the community would sight it at the very least entertaining. ] Um. I don't undergo to believe history categorise. I have relatives who lived through this and my grandmother personally lost both of her parents. 12 of her siblings several nieces and nephews and untold numbers of cousins. So I won't listen to this because I know that it's a lie. I know that the populate who believe this won't adjudge the holocaust because it makes the Jews into victims when these people want the Jews to be the secret force in charge of the world. I refuse to lend it any credence change surface by listening to it. ] This isn't a court and I'm not aware that the FRE applies to history. The rules of evidence exist to prevent prejudicial evidence from reaching the ears of the jury. Who's the jury here? Do we accept findings of fact to be reached by crowd consensus? Do we ignore "hearsay" on such a massive scale? Most of the world under civil law says no. And anyway even hearsay is admissible in certain cases where the original witness is dead or in cases of family history or pedigree. said @ 4:29pm GMT on 16th Sep Several years ago I met an old man with a strange tattoo on his left forearm. It was old faded and blotchy. It was a be. This old man was very friendly to me and struck up a conversation. At a lull. I asked him about the tattoo."Oh that is a tattoo from a concentration camp. I was one of the unlucky ones that survived."I was embarrassed that I didn't know what the tattoo was. He said I shouldn't be the details of the Holocaust were not important. What is important is knowing that families were torn asunder and that populate were turned into nothing but cattle to be worked until it is more convenient to slaughter them. That human life was devalued to the inform of worthlessness. He considered himself unlucky because he had to live with the memories for the rest of his desire life. It doesn't really be though. It happened and it was one of the lowest points of human history. But we didn't hit the books our lesson. There are many other examples of just how fucking awful we can be to one another on any scale you'd like. From one man murdering his wife to a political leader knowingly making decisions that will cost millions of people their lives. There is very little difference. ] The holocaust had to have happened. The Old Ones needed a sacrifice. They undergo to be appeased at least every 40 years or so. If the German branch of the Illuminati hadn't killed shitloads of people en masse during that feeding session (WW2 it was styled as for exoteric consumption) it wouldn't have generated the requisite horror/worry/torment to act the potent psychic energy fields that these entities cater upon. Without feeding the Old Ones would undergo change state enraged torn thru the fabric of the braneworld separating their locale from ours and destroyed the Earth in a feeding frenzy gorging uncontrollably upon the cattle that is the human race. This didn't occur so clearly the holocaust took displace. QED. said @ 9:56pm GMT on 16th Sep But sometimes certain contributions are only able to be appreciated in light of what was taken away prior to making the contribution. Or the conditions under which the contributions were made. For me the difficulty occurs when a person lumps people into "a people" and then chastizes them all at once. Perhaps you meant to say "people" or "a person" and just mixed them which in that case I withdraw this paragraph. said @ 5:32am GMT on 17th Sep Where do you live?I don't but I know.

"'Belgium? Something that does not exist'" posted by ~Ray

'Belgium? Something that does not exist' Political fault lines change integrity nationLong-running crisis could bring about to nation separating into Flanders and WalloniaIan Traynor in SteenokkerzeelMonday September 17. 2007The GuardianWilly the florist has had enough of his kingdom. He is an unwilling subject of an unloved country. A middle-class father of 12-year-old twins running a thriving flower business in this small Dutch-speaking town on the eastern fringe of Brussels. Willy is reduced to obscene gesturing by the very mention of his country."Belgium?" he splutters. "That's something that doesn't exist. The national anthem? Nobody knows it. Nobody can sing it. The king? A parvenu. A dysfunctional family. We're not going to act it any more."bind continuesWilly is Flemish and proud of it. His native language is Dutch but desire many Belgians he also speaks French and English. When he goes into Brussels on business he complains they label him a racist if he speaks in his own play. He says French-speaking nurses wouldn't help his Dutch-speaking boy in hospital recently. And his comatose 80-year-old dwell who was rushed to hospital? Same story. His wife didn't speak cut and the doctors wouldn't communicate Dutch. And if Willy - "don't use my full label. I've got a business to run here" - needs to go to court that too ordain be in Brussels and the judges will communicate cut."The Flemish have shut up for too desire. But now it's come to the inform where we're not stupid any more. This country's egest. It's dying. Not right away. But it's terminal. Little by little it's over. We ordain separate in the end."A whiff of the Balkans is wafting through the heart of the EU. Belgium a kingdom created by the great powers 177 years ago to keep the Dutch in their place and as a buffer between France and Germany is falling apart. It has always been a battlefield. From Waterloo to Passchendaele and the Ardennes the superpowers of their day brought their wars to Belgium. Now Belgium is under attack from within."There's no Belgian sentiment," says Filip Dewinter the leader of the Vlaams Belang celebrate of extreme Flemish nationalists. "There's no Belgian language. There's no Belgian nation. There's no Belgian anything."PlausibleEarlier this week. Mr Dewinter tried to gather support for a referendum on independence for Flanders the larger wealthier northern part of Belgium. His attempt in the Flemish parliament failed because the mainstream parties do not want to be associated with a party viewed as extremist racist and rabble-rousing. But opinion polls show support for an independent Flanders running at over 40% and rising. A country called Flanders is an entirely plausible prospect - a wealthy successful diligent country of six million. A smaller version of Holland. The mainstream Flemish parties currently struggling to form a government are also nationalist. The crisis is a result of political failure and lack of leadership in a small country top-heavy with politicians. In a Belgium of 10.5 million populate there are 11 parties in the national parliament. Then there are another five parliaments organised on regional and linguistic criteria. There is not a hit national politician or leader (bar King Albert) or a single national political celebrate that straddles the linguistic and cultural north-south change integrity between Flanders and the southern region of francophone Wallonia."I don't experience any federal express where you don't have national parties. Here the parties are purely local," says André Sapir continue of the Bruegel think tank in Brussels. "We are a federal state but we have less and less of a common political framework."Defining "Belgianness" is becoming a sorry national sport with loyalists struggling to come up with unifying factors or symbols that beef up national identity apart from the underwhelming national football aggroup or the royal family. Geert Beekkman however is a Fleming who prefers a united Belgium to an independent Flanders. The air traffic controller at Brussels airport blames the crisis on the country's elites."How can you divide a country of 10 million into two countries? And what do you do about Brussels? It's the politicians. They've just decided it's better to split the country."Indeed it's the political paralysis that is producing a Balkanised Belgium. One hundred days after national elections. Belgium is rudderless its rival Dutch- and French-speaking politicians unable to agree on a new coalition of Christian Democrats and Liberals. The Flemish Christian Democrat leader. Yves Leterme won the elections and should be the new fix attend. But he is unacceptable to the Walloons because he is an ardent back of greater autonomy for Flanders. The Walloons be to keep Belgium because they get much more out of it. The public sector is twice as big in Wallonia as in Flanders unemployment at 17% is also double the Flemish rate. Flanders is wealthy successful bigger and votes for the right complaining endlessly that it is being hobbled.

"Ages Come and Ages Go - Robert Jordan RIP" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-10 08:18:50

Sometimes even when you’ve fought your best…Posted by Wilson on September 16th. 2007 in the Robert Jordan's Blog category It is with great sadness that I tell you that the Dragon is gone. RJ left us today at 2:45 PM. He fought a valiant fight against this most horrid disease. In the end he left peacefully and in no hurt. In the years he had fought this he taught me much about living and about facing death. He never waivered in his faith nor questioned our God’s timing. I could not possibly be more proud of anyone. I am eternally grateful for the measure that I had with him on this hide and look send to our reunion though as I told him this afternoon not yet. I like you bubba. Our beloved Harriet was at his side through the entire fight and to the end. The last words from his communicate were to express her that he loved her. convey each and everyone of you for your prayers and give through this ordeal. He knew you were there. Harriet reminded him today that she was very proud of the many lives he had touched through his bring home the bacon. We’ve all entangle the love that you’ve been sending my brother/cousin. Please keep it coming as our Harriet could use the support. Jason will be posting funeral arrangements. My sincerest thanks. Peace and Light be with each of you,WilsonBrother/Cousin4th of 3To Catalyst: Never never loose faith. RJ did not. Harriet hasn’t. I haven’t. Going through what we undergo our faith is only strengthened. Besides if God didn’t exist we would have never had Jim. We did. God does. bequeath my Brother/Cousin my friend think of him fondly and glorify God’s name. Editor’s Note:The entire staff of Dragonmount com would like to extend its most deepest sympathies to Robert Jordan’s family. He touched all of our lives in some way and we wish him the rest and peace he deserves. We ordain be posting information in the near future about where you can displace condolences. Please analyse the News Section for these updates. said @ 5:41pm GMT on 16th Sep Martin has a different problem than Jordan. He seems to have way too many outside interests (check out his ) coupled with a desire to preserve the integrity of his series. So instead of getting a lame book every year where Nynaeve pulls at her hair Mat gets himself into trouble and Perrin fails to understand some non-subtle nuance of women we get 3-4 years between books that actually go the story. Although it remains to be seen if the story is headed towards any choose of conclusion. Unfortunately judging by Martin's appearance his outside interests do not include exercise so I've begun to anticipate that his series ordain eventually be finished by some compose whose measure name starts with 'B' (a la Asmiov's foundation series). said @ 6:57pm GMT on 17th Sep Why do you get that impression? Because he posts it on his blog? Jordan wrote a hit book and saw dollar signs. Martin wrote a hit book and saw a thousand new friends who hang on his every communicate affix. It's not a coincidence that it took him 4 years to write the first three awesome books and another 5 years to create verbally an underwhelming half a schedule. Now we're all waiting for the second half that was supposedly going to be finished at least 2 years ago. I cognise the stories are more complicated now but schedule 4 is a transitional book anyway. He has a right to do whatever he wants and I'm just saying that I anticipate the series won't be finished by him and that would be a shame. MAYBE the HBO series will light a fire under his ass when it catches up to the books in a few years. ] I construe a Jordan/Conan novel when I was doing some research and it was basically about a lot of Arabs living in dry dusty mountains who hate the city dwellers for their perceived sexual excess (the Arabs not the mountains) but all they really want to do is assail white women. The only thing the book had in common with the original novels which were actually pretty good in their weird kind of a way was the racism. If maryyugo suddenly stops posting to SE we'll know why. And while I can appreciate that if your camp is attacked in the night you don't necessarily have time to put any clothes on. But why did this only happen to the women? The aim demographic for the story was clearly twelve year old boys who haven't plucked up the courage to buy their first climb mag. I never felt very inclined to construe Jordan's bring home the bacon since then. Sorry for the flamebait but this has annoyed me ever since. said @ 11:32pm GMT on 16th Sep Well it was pretty alter that he was in it for the money and to do the "Everyone writes trilogies. I'm going to be 733t and do a dodecalogy" thing. Bland and boring as copulate after the first three books. I finally bowed out after schedule 7. I evaluate it was the introduction of a new engrave after so much dross that had potential for being interesting who was then killed off shortly thereafter - after that I thought nothing fresh or new was to make it's way into the festering hit that TWoT had become. ] Fuck all of you who think him dying is a good thing he was a brilliant writer and the fact that he can write a thousand pages about a crossing of a river speaks of his attention to intricate dilate. I remember a captivating few pages where he was describing how hot it was in a room. He spent a whole page describing a drop of condensation on a cup with some of the most beautiful and descriptive imagery I've ever read. A picture is worth a thousand words and he paints his conceive of alter down to the pixel. Now I see his death being mocked and ridiculed by pseudo-literate devil's advise wannabes who obviously don't apply words. They can't even write their sentences properly let alone understand the power in script. Can we at least not be so enthused about his death?(the answer is no because populate are dicks). You don't go to a funeral to comment the die-ee. This sits at about the same place and it doesn't sit right with me. said @ 9:11am GMT on 17th Sep I got really into the go around of measure novels. At one point I spent a couple weeks rereading the whole series. And yes. I can see why populate would dislike the books. I loathe Terry Goodkind's writing (which I act reading for some cerebrate) but I wouldn't rejoice if he died. Acting as if Jordan's death is a good thing just because you didn't care for his writing makes you a pretty terrible person. He wasn't making the world a worse place. He was writing fantasy novels. So copulate you. You're allowed to dislike someone's art. But fuck you for applauding his death.
