Chris Cantell Discusses US News: Ekonomijata gi zadrža amerikancite doma za praznikot na oddavanje blagodarnost
by Magdalena Rosova


Poradi lošata ekonomska situacija iljadnici amerikanci ke go pominat praznikot na blagodarnosta doma namesto da patuvaat da gi vidat svoite familii.

Aerodromite i patištata bea prazni vo sredata, nevoobičaeno pred praznicite. Avtomobilskata asocijacija na Amerika pretpostavi deka 41 milioni amerikanci ke patuvaat za praznikot, što e za okolu 1.5% pomalku od minatata godina.

Ova e prvoto namaluvanje na brojot na onie koi patuvaat za vreme na odmorite od 2002 godina i vo isto vreme toa e najgolemoto posle denot na blagodarnosta posle terorističkite napadi od 11ti septemvri 2001 godina.

Namaluvanjeto e direktna reakcija na ekonomskata situacija. I pokraj toa što cenite na gasot se namalija, lugeto mora da platat za sé ostanato poveke.

Nemaše odložuvanja na aerodromite, sé se odvivaše kako podmačkano. Patnicite bea iznenadeni i rekoa deka sé se dviži pobrzo otkolku eden običen vikend.

Ekonomijata isto imaše vlijanie i na aerodromot vo Kolumbus, Ohajo, no na različen način i nekolku avioni, pa zatoa i pomalku letovi. Dnevno imaše 193 poletuvanja, a ovaa godina imaše samo 155 letovi dnevno.

Nekoi od onie koi rešija da patuvaat za denot na blagodarnosta izjavija deka trebale da štedat pari i da namalat na site ostanati trošoci za da može da si kupat karti. Drugi velat deka i pokraj toa što patuvaat, tie ne planiraat da potrošat mnogu pari na drugi raboti.

Kako i da e, mnogumina izjavija deka sredbata so familijata za denot na blagodarnosta e prioritet i tie bi patuvale bez ogled na sé. Konečno, namaluvanjeto na cenite na gasot isto taka im ovozmoži na mnogumina da patuvaat so avtomobili.

Team of rivals
by Barbora Misakova


I was never into politics too much, to be honest. I know few names, few faces, from time to time I read political news, but to tell the truth, policy is nothing more than farce for me. All is about actors and their way (better or worse) of acting, their ability to be convincing. Actors in the costumes (politics in the jackets) are playing game to entertain and satisfy us, but in real all they are doing are doing for themselves. They are saying that entering European Union is going to be a good step for us; they are saying that war in Iraq is necessary; they are saying they all are working hard to destroy corruption; they are saying!

Today, quite similar game is playing in the White House, or better say in connection with it, as Barack is not in yet. When I heard that Barack Obama is going to give position of secretary of state to his (former?) rival Hillary Rodham Clinton I was a bit disappointed. And even though I never tried to understand political things now I am trying, because I thought Obama could really bring a change to the United States. But instead of change he is going back?! He is giving this important post to Clinton who was during presidency campaigns saying lies and trying to sling mud at him? The woman who didn't save one bad word on him will be now standing next to him and smiling at us (I am saying "us" because I mean it). Is it some kind of voluntary self-torment to show people he can work even with his foes? Or is it another backstage deal? I really don't get it. Also the name of Bush's defense secretary & Robert Gates will not be changed and he will stay in his current post! Is it only me who is unpleasantly surprised? Is it only me for who are explanation such as "he is well-respected man" or "she is "deeply experienced" only attempts of self-justification? Well hard to say what the final version of Obama's Cabinet will look like, but one thing is sure & it is going to be a team of rivals.
