Robotski rčko by kristina leskova

Sekoj što ima deca znae kolku e teško da se ispolnat nivnite baranja. Nim može mnogu lesno da im vlijaat reklamite ili drugite deca. I potoa, teško e da im objasnite deka tie ne možat da gi imaat site igrački što gi sakaat. Denovive se pojavi žeška igračka, koja brzo stana hit. Toa e robotski 'rčko i decata ednostavno go obožavaat. Što e tolku prekrasno vo ovaa igračka? Povekje raboti ja pravat atraktivna ovaa igračka. Robotskite igrački se mnogu popularni megju decata. Kako na primer, robotskiot dinosaurus od "Hasbro" - ovaa igračka e navistina popularna, no ne e mnogu evtina i ottamu, ne ! može da si ja dozvoli sekoe dete. No, robotskiot 'rčko e mnogu evtin i čini samo deset dolari. Duri i za vreme na finansiskata kriza, deset dolari ne se mnogu golemi pari za povekjeto roditeli. Ovoj 'rčko može da se kupi so nekoi dodatoci, kako što e avtomobil za 'rčko. No, problemot se sostoi vo toa što ovoj robotski 'rčko vekje e raspordaden i roditelite ne možat da go najdat nikade. Ovaa igračka e nameneta za deca od tri do deset godini i go sozdade kompanijata "Cepia". Ovaa kompanija ne e taka golema kako "Matel" ili "Tojs Ar As". Ovaa kompanija ima samo 16 vraboteni vo SAD i 30 vo Kina. Pa, kako što možete da vidite, duri i mala kompanija može da bide mnogu uspešna. Roditelite sega se očajni zatoa što tie mislat deka kompanijata ne proizvela dovolno robotski 'rčka. Nekoi roditeli duri se javija vo Kina za da ja dobijat igračkata direktno od proizvoditelot. No, kompanijata n! e očekuvaše deka ovoj rčko kje bide tolku popul! aren. Ti e se nadevaa deka kje prodavaat tri do četiri 'rčka nedelno, a nivnata želba beše da prodadat osum nedelno. No, rezultatot sega e mnogu podobar otkolku što se očekuvaše.

Suštinata na čovečkata srekja by Milota Sidorova

Ponekogaš morate da ja počuvstvuvate blizinata. Mora da bidete blisku do drugite. Da bidete del od nešto. Možebi samo da stoite vo gužva i da gledate kako pominuva paradata. Da sfatite deka ne ste sami. Ova čuvstvo, narečeno opštestvena neophodnost e považno od hranata, parite ili ponekogaš, rabotnoto iskustvo. Taka e, zatoa što se vrakjame nazad na početokot - čovekot e društveno suštestvo, doagja od pleminjata i duri sega krie nešto mistično vo negovata duša. Posledicite se vidlivi i vo našiot vek. Amerikanskiot narod neodamna go proslavi Denot na blagodarnosta i ovaa godina, ! možebi povekje od koga bilo, imaše potreba da bide preplaven so euforija, iako samo privremeno. Site praznici treba da bidat takvi. Da se zaborava i da se pameti. Da se zaboravi dnevnata rutina, problemite i stravovite što čovek gi čuva vo svojata glava i da zapameti - deka postojat drugite, deka postoi nešto specijalno na koe treba da se fokusirame. Lugje, čuvstva, blagodaram i ednostavni idei. Ponekogaš se prašuvam dali denes sme posrekjni od nekogaš. Generalno, životniot standard, i pokraj krizata, raste. Možeme da si gi dozvolime rabotite što našite roditeli ne možele nitu da gi sonuvaat. No, kako toa né pravi nas posrekjni, poispolneti? Kako komunicirame? Koja e cenata na našata rabota? Kolku minuti dnevno imame samo za nas samite? I kako nie lugjeto znaeme deka sme živi? Amerikancite go proslavija Denot na blagodarnosta. Iako posakuvam srekja na sekoe živo suštestvo, ! čuvstvuvav golema taga duri ja gledav paradata. Ovie lugj! e ne bea slobodni i ne bea srekjni. Pretsedatelot se javi na majorite što služat vo Afganistan i Irak da im se zablagodari za nivnata hrabrost i volja. Toj im se zablagodari za golemata nepravda što stana legalna misija. I za ovie povici, političarite i mediumite go pofalija. Duri i narodot go napravi toa. Lugjeto ja gledaa paradata bez da znaat kolku pari i energija čini seto toa. Tažen i gneven. Slavite vo takvi seriozni vreminja doagjaat samo kako mienje na mozokot. Polesno e da se zaboravi kontekstot na našeto vreme, potrebite na milijardi gladni lugje predizvikani od megjunarodni korporacii i politički režimi i potrebite i granicite na našata planeta. Lesno e da se pokaže solidarnost kon našite prijateli i familii. Lesno e da prestaneme da mislime na realnosta. Ne go zemam pravoto na srekja, velam, ve molam smetajte deka sekoja lažica hrana što ja jadete, što ja isfrluvate, sekoja nekorisna milja &#! 353;to ja vozite i sekoja nevažna rabota što ja kupuvate. Toa nema da ve napravi srekjni vo vašite srca. No, sekoja akcija što ja prezemate, sekoja lažica hrana, litar voda što dozvoluvate ednostavno da se isturi, bi možel da go napravi nekogo od drugata strana na planetava, povekje od blagodaren. Na čovek na mu treba mnogu za da se počuvstvuva blisku do čoveštvoto.

Robotický škrečok by kristina leskova

Každý, kto má deti, vie, aké je ťažké splniť všetky ich požiadavky. Deti sú veľmi ľahko ovplyvniteľné či už nejakou reklamou alebo inými deťmi. A potom je ťažké vysvetliť im, že nemôžu mať všetky hračky, ktoré by chceli. V súčasnej dobe je na trhu hračka, ktorá sa rýchlo stala hitom. Je to robotický škrečok a deti ho jednoducho milujú. Čo je na ňom také úžasné? Je to viac vecí, ktoré robia túto hračku príťažlivou. Robo! tické hračky sú medzi deťmi veľmi populárne. Napríklad robotický dinosaurus od spoločnosti Hasbro – táto hračka je populárna, ale nie je veľmi lacná, a preto ani nie je dostupná pre každé dieťa. Lenže robotický škrečok je veľmi lacný, stojí len desať dolárov. A počas finančnej krízy to pre väčšinu rodičov nie je až taká veľká suma peňazí. Tento škrečok sa dá kúpiť aj s príslušenstvom ako napríklad auto pre škrečka. Lenže problémom je, že škrečok je vypredaný a rodičia ho nevedia nikde nájsť. Táto hračka je zacielená na skupinu tri až desaťročných detí a vyrobila ju spoločnosť Cepia. Táto firma nie je taká obrovská! ; ako ostatné továrne na hračky akými s! 50; Matt el alebo Toys R Us. Firma v spojených štátoch zamestnáva len šestnásť zamestnancov a v Číne je to len tridsať zamestnancov. Takže ako vidíš aj menšia firma môže byť veľmi úspešná. Rodičia sú však už zúfalí, pretože si myslia, že firma nevyrobila dostatočné množstvo robotických škrečkov. Niektorí rodičia volali priamo do Číny, aby sa k hračke dostali priamo od výrobcu. Lenže ani firma nepredpokladala, že tento škrečok bude až tak populárny. Dúfali, že by týždenne mohli predať tri až štyri kusy a ich najtajnejším prianím bolo predať osem škrečkov za týždeň. Výsledok však prevýšil ich očakávania a to niekoľkonásobne.

Robotic hamster by kristina leskova

Everyone who has children knows how hard it is to fulfill their requirements. They can be very easy influenced by some ads or by other children. And then it is hard to explain them that they cannot have all the toys which they want. Nowadays there is a hot toy which quickly became a hit. It is a robotic hamster and children just love it. What is so amazing at this toy? There are more things which make this toy attractive. The robotic toys are very popular between children. Like for example robotic dinosaur from Hasbro – this toy is really popular but not very cheap and therefore it is not affordable for every child. But robotic hamster is very cheap it costs only ten ! dollars. And during financial crisis ten dollars are not as much money for most of the parents. This hamster can be bought with some accessories like hamster car. But the problem is that this robotic hamster is sold and parents cannot find it anywhere. This toy is aimed at three to ten years old children and it is made by company Cepia. This company is not as big as other toy factories like Mattel or Toys R Us. This company has only sixteen employees in the US and thirty in China. So as you can see even small company can be very successful. Parents are now desperate because they think that company has not produced enough robotic hamsters. Some parents even called to China to get the toy directly from the producer. But the company did not expect that this hamster will be so popular. They hoped to sell three or four hamsters per week and their wish was to sell eight hamsters per week. But the result is now much higher than expected.

O ľudskom šťastí… by Milota Sidorova

Niekedy musíte pocítiť ozajstnú blízkosť. Pocit, že sa takmer dotýkate iných. Že ste súčasťou niečoho väčšieho. Že presahujete hranice svojho bytu, partnerského vzťahu, rodiny, že sa môžete pozrieť na oblohu a vydýchnuť si. Zbaviť sa celej tej ťažoby, ktorú vám denná rutina prináša. Niekedy je pochod v dave zážitkom priam euforickým. Tento pocit, nazývaný sociálnou nutnosťou v sebe človek nesie od počiatku histórie. Pochádzame z prvých kmeňov! , a hoci v nás životný štýl upevňuje pocit individualít, sme a vždy budeme súčasťou niečoho väčšieho. Chceme to, a tento pocit spolupatričnosti je niekedy väčší ako potreba najsť sa či pracovať za akékoľvek peniaze. Dôsledky takýtchto potrieb jasne vidíme aj v súčasnosti. Preplnené futbalové štadióny, koncerty, politické zhromaždenia. Všetko do krajnosti presiaknuté eufóriou, ktorá dáva zabudnúť, ale i prinavracia zabudnuté. Americkí občania nedávno slávili deň Vďakyvzdania. Tento rok boli sprievody možno ešte pompéznejšie ako inokedy. Treba zabudnúť na potreby sveta, vlastné problémy a tie zovšadiaľ sa sypajúce negatívne správy. Hoci i na krátky okamih. Svi! atky, ktoré slávime v kruhu, či dave ľud&#! 237;, za sa pripomínajú potrebu blízkosti, ktorá je nám odnímaná, a ktorú, musím povedať, si odnímame aj sami. Niekedy sa pýtam, či sme šťastnejší ako generácie pred nami. Máme možnosti, o akých sa naším rodičom ani len nesnívalo, ale zvyšuje sa pocit šťastia? Nie sú naše domy len skladiskom nepotrebných produktov a depresií? Ako nás teda môžu spraviť šťastnejšími? Ako komunikujeme? Aká je cena našej práce? Koľko minút do dňa, týždňa, mesiaca venujeme sami sebe? Ako vlastne my ľudia vieme, že sme skutočne nažive? Americkí občania oslávili deň Vďakyvzdania. Hoci prajem šťastie každej osobe, pohľad na davy zhromaždené pri prechádzajúcich sprievodoch vo mne vy! volal dve emócie. Hnev a smútok. Hnev preto, že ich aj tento sviatok, so všetkým čo priniesol zasa utlmil vedomie reality. Nahneval ma oslavný podtón médií, ktoré priniesli správu o tom, že prezident Obama telefonicky poďakoval svojím veliteľom v Afganistane a Iraku za dobrú prácu. Za legálny masaker a útlak miliónov bezmenných obyvateľov. Ľudia nebudú slobodní, pokiaľ o veciach tohto sveta nezačnú rozmýšľať kriticky a v kontexte. Koľko ľudí si počas slávnostnej večere spomenulo na viac než miliardu hladujúcich na svete? Koľko z nich si predstavilo reálne finančné a energetické náklady oslavných sprievodov a reklám? Koľko z nich skutočne vie o stave planéty? Ženieme sa ku kataklizme a predsa, odvraciame hlavy, s! nažíme sa zabaviť, pokiaľ bude ešte m! ožn é. Je ľahké preukazovať solidaritu priateľom a rodine. Je ľahké zabudnúť na realitu. Nechcem ľuďom zbrať právo na šťastie a oddych, ale vravím. Každá lyžicu jedla, ktorú odhodíme, každý liter vody, ktorý necháme nadarmo pretiecť by niekomu možno ani nie tak ďaleko priniesla skutočný pocit vďaky. Človek toho k šťastiu mnoho nepotrebuje.

The essence of human happiness. by Milota Sidorova

Sometimes you’ve got to feel the nearness. You’ve got to be close to the others. To be a part of something. Maybe just stand in the crowd and watch the parade going by. Realize that you are not alone. This feeling, called the social necessity is more important than the food, money and sometimes work experience. It’s so, because we go back to the start – man is a social being, coming from tribes and even now hiding something mystical within his soul. The consequences are visible even in our century. American people celebrated Thanksgiving Day recently and as this year, maybe more than anytime they felt they need to be overrun by euphoria, although for! only temporary period. All the feasts are meant to be like this. To forget and to remember. To forget on daily routine, problems and fears one keeps in his or her mind and to remember – there are the others, there is something special to focus on. People, feelings, thanks and simple ideas. Sometimes I ask whether we are happier than we were. Generally the living standard, despite the crisis is increasing. We can afford things our parents haven’t even dreamed of. But how do they make us happier, fuller? How do we communicate? What is the cost of our work? How much minutes a day we have just for ourselves? And how do we people know that we are alive? Americans celebrated Thanksgiving Day. Although I wish the happiness to every human being, I felt great sorrow while watching the parade. These people were not free and not happy. President made calls to majors serving in Afghanistan and Iraq to thank them for their courage and will. He thanked them for great inju! stice that became a legal mission. And for these calls politic! ians and media praised him. Even people did so. People were looking at the parade not knowing the money and energy costs of all this. Sad and anger. Feasts in such serious times come only as a great brainwash. It’s easily to forget of the context of our time, the needs of billions of hungry people squeezed by international corporations and political regimes and the needs and limits of our planet. It’s easy to show solidarity to our friends and families. It’s easy to stop thinking about the reality. I don’t take the right to be happy, I say, please concern every spoon of food that you eat, that you throw out, every useless mile you drive and ever unnecessary item you buy. It won’t make you happy in your heart. But every action you take, every spoon of food, liter of water you let just pass could make someone on the other side of the planet more than thankful. Human doesn’t need much to feel closer to the mankind.

Návrat detí ako bumerang by kristina leskova

Ak máte deti, tento článok je venovaný práve vám. Recesia ovplyvňuje všetkých obyvateľov a aj mladí ľudia pociťujú jej dôsledky. Niektorí rodičia, ktorí majú dospelé deti, povedali, že práve kvôli recesii sa ich deti vrátili ako bumerang. Takmer jeden zo siedmich rodičov potvrdil, že ich dieťa sa vrátilo domov, pretože nebolo schopné žiť osamote. Najväčším problémom sú peniaze. Mladí ľudia sa snažia pracovať, pretože potrebujú pokryť ich výdavky. ! Lenže bez práce nie je možné splácať životné náklady. A vedia, že ich rodičia im v tomto môžu pomôcť. To je dôvod, prečo je stále viac a viac mladých ľudí, ktorí sa rozhodli nasťahovať sa späť k rodičom. Tu nemusia platiť za nájom, jedlo alebo iné veci. Všetko toto môžu dostať od rodičov. Niektorí rodičia sa samozrejme potešia návratu ich detí, lenže táto situácia má aj svoje nevýhody. Tento trend návratu k rodičom môže spôsobiť odloženie manželstva alebo dokonca aj odloženie plánovania dieťatka. Mladí ľudia sú bez peňazí, a preto nechcú začínať nový život s ich partnermi alebo partnerkami. Štatistiky hovoria, že podiel mladých &! #318;udí vo veku 18 až 29, ktorí sa osamostatni! li, pokl esol zo 7,9 percenta v roku 2007 na 7,3 percenta v tomto roku. Medzi ľuďmi, ktorí sú vo veku 16 až 24 rokov, je v súčasnosti len polovica z nich zamestnaná. Takmer 20 miliónov ľudí vo veku 18 až 34 rokov žije v domoch svojich rodičov a to je takmer 30 percent v rámci tejto vekovej skupiny. Keď tento stav porovnáme s rokom 2005, môžeme pozorovať nárast o 3 percentá. Takmer 12 percent mladých ľudí vo veku 18 až 34 rokov potvrdilo, že sa museli nasťahovať spoločne so spolubývajúcim, pretože osamote by neboli schopní platiť nájomné za bývanie.

Boomerang children by kristina leskova

If you have children this article is dedicated to you. The recession influences the whole population and also young people could feel the impacts. Some parents who have grown children said that due to recession their children came back as boomerang. Almost one in seven parents claimed that their child moved back home because he was not able to live alone. The biggest problem was money. Young people try to work because they need to cover their expenses. But without work it is not possible to pay for the living costs. And they know that their parents could help them. That is the reason why still more and more young people decide to move back into their parents’ houses. ! Here they do not have to pay for the house, food or other necessary things. All these they can get from their parents. Some of the parents will be happy to have their children at home but it has also some disadvantages. This trend of moving back to parents could cause delay of marriage and also delay of planning baby. Young people are without money and they do not want to start a new life with their partners. The statistics say that the share of young adults in the age between 18 – 29 who lived alone declined from 7,9 percent in 2007 to 7,3 percent this year. Among people who are aged between 16 – 24 only half of them are currently employed. About 20 million people in the age from 18 to 34 live in their parents´ homes and that makes almost 30 percent of that age group. When we compare it with year 2005 we can see the increase of 3 percent. About 12 percent of young people in the age from 18 to 34 said that they were forced to move in with a roommate becaus! e they could not pay the house fee alone.

Da se sprostrat ili ne? by Silvia Szarkova

Dokolku sakate da gi sprostirate vašite ališta na žici za ališta za da gi sušite na sonce, možete da go storite toa, osven ako sakate da gi šokirate vašite sosedi. Toa se vika pravo na zakčuvanje i nekoi lugje mora da se borat za toa, na primer isto taka e vo Pensilvanija. Drugata grupa na lugje ne razbira zošto mora sekoj da ja gleda dolnata obleka na svoite sosedi. Dali e moralno da se sprosti vašata dolna obleka vo zaednički oblasti vo gradot? Ili postojat povekje prednosti kako štedenje energija i da se bide zelen? Kerin Frolih e 54-godišna gospogja, edna od rastečkata grupa na lugje koi gi baraa! t nivnite prava za da gi sušat alištata na sonceto. No lokalnite vlasti ja zamolija Kerin da ja prekine ovaa akcija. Postoi silna opozicija protiv koristenjete na žicite za ališta, i pokraj štedenjeto na struja, zelen apel. "Tie velat deka taka predizvikale mestoto da izgleda kako količka za gjubre", reče Kerin. Ne postoi formalen zakon što bi gi zabranil žicite za ališta, kako i da e, ljubitelite na ovoj priroden način mora da se grupiraat vo proektot "Lista na ališta", za da gi zaštitat svoite interesi.

Od druga strana pak, praviloto za nesprostiranje e od estetska gledna točka, veli Karl Vajner, advokat na 50-tina sopstvenici na kukji vo predgradie na Pensilvanija. Tie se sprotivs! tavuvaat na žicite za ališta i smetaat deka prednost! ite na s redinata ne se tolku silni za da se merat na ovaa tema.

Susit alebo nesusit? by Silvia Szarkova

Ked si chcete pradlo len tak volne nechat uschnut na snure vonku pod slnieckom, moze tak kludne urobit- teda, pokial chcete sokovat susedov. Niektori to nazivaju pravo vesat, a niketori ludia sa teda musia z ato pobit, napriklad v Pennsylvanii. Druha strana ludi totiz nechape, preco by sa vsetci susedia mali pozerat na spodne pradlo svojich susedov. Je to moralne vyvesat pradlo v spolocnych priestoroch mesta? Alebo v skutocnosti existuje ovela viac vyhod spojenych so setrenim energie a teda tym aj zivotneho prostredia.? Carin Froehlich, 54 rocna dama, jedna z rastucej skupiny ludi, ktori sa dozaduju svojho prava na susenie veci na slnku. Ale miestny uradnici ju poziadali, ! aby to prestala robit. Existuje toziz silna opozicia prosti pouzivaniu snur na vesanie, a to napriek zelenemu efektu. „ Vravia, ze to robi mesto iba zbytocne tulacke, posobi to tak, “ vravi Karin. V skutocnosti, neexistuje formalne pravo, ktore by zakazovalo snury na pradlo, avsak fanusikovia tohto sposobu sa aj tak musia zdruzovat do organizicii- jedna sa nazyva Project Laundry List, a chrani ich zaujmi. Podla vykonneho veduceho skupiny, Alexandra Leeho, ludia mozu usetrit peniaze a zredukovat emisiu uhlika uz len tym, ze si susicku nezapnu. Na strane druhej, pravo proti vesaniu pradla je aj esteticka otazka, tvrdi Carl Weiner, pravnik asi 50 majitelov domov na predmesti Pennsylvanie. Su proti snuram, a fakt, ze to setri zivotne prostredie podla nich vela nezavazi v tejto teme. Florida, Utah, Maine, Hawai, Colorado a Vermont uz prijali zakony, ktore zakazuju uradnikom zasahovat do tejto slobody obcanov. A aky bude osud Pennsylvanie?

Hang it or not? by Silvia Szarkova

If you want to hang out your laundry on clothlines to dry it on sun, you can do it- unless you want to shock your neighbours. It is called right to hang and some people need to fight for it, for example also in Pennsylvania. The other group of people do not understand why sholud everybody see the underwear of their neighbours. Is is moral to hang out your laundry to common areas of the town? Or are there more advantages of saving energy and being green? Carin Froehlich is 54-year- old lady, one of the growing group of people demanding their right to dry the laundry in the sun. But local officials asked Carin to stop this action. There is a strong oppositions against using ! clothelines, despite its energy- saving, green appeal. "They said it made the place look like trailer trash," Carin says. There is no formal law that would ban clothlines, however the fans of this natural way need to group in Project Laundry List to protect their interests. According to the group executive director Alexander Lee, people can save money and reduce carbon emissions by not turning their electric or gas dryers on. On the other hand, the non-hanging rule is an esthetic issue, says Carl Weiner, a lawyer for about 50 homeowners in suburb of Pennsylvania. They oppose the clothlines and consider the environment advantages not a such strong to measure in this topic. Florida, Utah, Maine, Hawai, Colorado and Vermont have passed a law that restricts officials in stoping residents to use clothlines. Whai is going to be the destiny of Pennsylvania?

Poklonot na Obama vo Japonija - predmet na kontroverzija by Zuzana Zelenakova

Prvata oficijalna poseta na pretsedatelot Obama na zemjata na izgrejsonceto dobi mnogu golemo mediumsko pokrivanje, otkolku što toj bi posakal. I za što stanuva zbor? Amerikanskiot pretsedatel se pokloni ednaš pred japonskiot car duri se rakuvaše, pred da vleze vo palatata. Dviženjeto što Barak Obama sugurno go napravi kako znak na počit za državata što toj ja posetuva i nejzinite tradicii ja razlutija kritikata vo Vašington. "Ne znam zošto pretsedatelot Obama pomisli deka toa e soodvetno. Možebi toj pomisli deka toa kje pomine dobro vo Japonija. No, ne e soodvetno za amerikanski pretsedatel da se poklonuva pred ! stranci", reče Vilijam Kristol, konzervtiven politički analitičar i komentator. "Se obložuvam deka ako poglednete vo fotografii na svetskite lideri koi se sretnale so japonskiot car vo poslednite 20 godini, tie ne se poklonuvaat." Ova samo pridonese za idejata pomegju pretsedatelskite kritičari deka toj se odnesuval na izvonreden način dostoen za počituvanje so drugite pretsedateli na državite i taka ja namalil pozicijata na SAD kako supersila. Za srekja, za amerikanski pretsedatel, imaše i takvi lugje koi pokažaa razbiranje i odobruvanje. "Mislam deka toa e gest na ljubeznost", reče demokratskata aktivistka Dona Brazil, dodavajkji deka toa bil način na Obama za da izrazi "dobra volja pomegju dve nacii koi se počituvaat pomegju sebe". Koga stanuva zbor za japonskite mediumi, povekjeto izbegnaa da zboruvaat za incidentot. Kako i da e, se pojavija brojni komentari na različni japonski internet-stranici i! tie bea prilično sprotivni na amerikansite reakcii. Eksp! erti po protokol i etiketa vo SAD argumentiraat deka japonskite običai se mnogu kompleksni i poklonuvanjeto može da ima mnogu značenja. Načinot na koj čovek se poklonuva, go opredeluva značenjeto i dlabok poklon koga očite se vpereni vo podot se smeta za akt na pokorna, preterana počit. Poklonot na Obama kon Kralot Abdula od Saudiska Arabija vo april predizvika slični reakcii.

"Tviter"-iziranje na NASA? by Claudia Sonea

Se čini deka slavata što SAD nekogaš ja imaa, izblednala. Tie povekje ne se lideri kako porano, zemjata denovive se bori da ostane vo tek so drugite državi i nivniot razvoj. Otkako recesijata beše oficijalno objavena, mnogu Amerikanci toa go smetaa za šega, no postepeno počnaa da sfakjaat vsušnost vo kakva sostojba e državata koja go izgubi pogolemiot del od svoite ekonomski i voeni vlijanija. Nacionalnata astronautska i vselenska administracija, isto taka poznata kako NASA, e poznata po svojata visoka tehnologija, po prviot let na Mesečinata, za Nabljuduvačkiot sistem na Zemjata, za istražuvanjeto na tela preku S! olarniot Sistem. Nejzinata slava beše izgradena so javni fondovi i dosega investicijata ne obezbedi nekoj ekonomski profit, ami naprotiv, samo dodade na nacionalniot dolg. Sepak, neracionalnoto trošenje bi bilo opravdano ako se znae deka bilo za korist na državata, da bide ramo do ramo so drugite državi kako Rusija ili Japonija. Poddržuvajkji ja NASA i nejzinite proekti, amerikanskata vlada faktički se bori da go zadrži statusot što go zarabotila so godinite, nejzinata ekonomska i voena prednost. Denovive, Agencijata se soočuva so zakanata da ostane bez neophodnata poddrška od Belata Kukja, poradi faktot deka mnogu poitni raboti treba prvo da se rešat, kako što e na primer, stapkata na nevrabotenosta. Zaboravajkji na bezbednosta i dostoinstvoto, NASA započna kampanja so cel da dobie poddrška od javnosta preku društveni internet-stranici i od neodamna, preku natprevar so koj na korisnicite na "Tviter"! im dade šansa da bidat vo vselensko letalo. Bea izbrani ! 21 srekj na ličnost, ne samo od SAD, ami i od drugi državi. Na zdravje za niv! Možete da zamislite kolku nisko padnala institucijata samo gledajkji ja NASA i zapomnuvajkji deka pred 20 godini, ne moževte ni da sonuvate da vlezete vo bazata. SAD bea mnogu povredeni od recesijata i prašanjeto što ostanuva e: što e sledno?

Havajskite plaži gladni za pesok by Zuzana Zelenakova

Eden od najvažnite belezi na Havai e pod zakana, negovite plaži. Meštanite zabeležuvaat deka belite pesočni plaži koi se pričina za ogromniot broj turisti da dojdat na ostrovite, postepeno isčeznuvaat. I, toa ne se slučuva samo so nekolku plaži, ami nasekade niz ostrovite. Geolozite očekuvaat momentalnata sostojba da se vloši vo narednite godini i ova e kako rezultat na globalnoto zagrevanje, što predizvikuva morskite nivoa da porasnat sé pobrzo.

Spored ekspertite, erodiraat okolu 70 procenti od plažite Kauai, koga stanuva zbor za Oahu, najpopularen od havajskite ostrovi, okolu 25 procenti od negovite plaži se izgubeni ili značajno se stesnale vo posledniot vek. Globalnoto zatopluvanje ne e edinstvenata pričina za ovoj razvoj. Zagubite se javija vo mesta kade plažite imaa nedostig na pesok pred raznovidni krajbrežni strukturi i zidovi kraj more, koi po pravilo se sozdadeni za da gi zaštitat zgradite i bregot.

Obamova poklona v Japonsku vyvolala búrlivé reakcie by Zuzana Zelenakova

Prvá oficiálna návšteva prezidenta Obamu v krajine vychádzajúceho slnka, Japonsku, pritiahla oveľa väčšiu pozornosť médií než by si bola samotná hlava Spojených štátov priala. A čo spôsobilo všetok ten rozruch? Pred vstupom do paláca sa americký prezident poklonil japonskému cisárovi Akihitovi. Gesto, ktoré Barrack Obama bezpochyby mienil ako prejav úcty voči krajine, ktorej bol hosťom a jej tradíciám, vyvolalo vo Washingtone vlnu kritiky. „Neviem prečo si prezident Obama myslel, že to bolo na mieste. Mo! žno tak chcel zapôsobiť na Japoncov. No nehodí sa, aby sa americký prezident klaňal nejakému inému,“ povedal William Kristol, konzervatívny politický analytik a komentátor. „Stavím sa, že keď sa pozriete na fotografie zo stretnutí svetových lídrov s japonským cisárom za posledných dvadsať rokov, ani jedného z nich neuvidíte sa klaňať.“ Táto aféra len nahráva do karát prezidentovým kritikom, ktorí tvrdia, že v rokovaniach so zahraničnými vodcami sa správa až prehnane úctivo, podriadene, akoby sa ospravedlňoval a tým podrýva pozíciu USA ako superveľmoci. Našťastie pre prezidenta našli sa aj takí, ktorí sa ho zastali a ocenili jeho správanie. „Myslím, že išlo o prejav dobrej vôle,“ hovorí! ; demokratická aktivistka Donna Brazileová a dod! 5;va, &# 382;e takýmto spôsobom Obama utvrdil „dobré vzťahy medzi dvoma národmi, ktoré sa navzájom rešpektujú.“ Čo sa týka japonských médií, tie incident veľmi nekomentovali. Avšak na rôznych japonských internetových stránkach sa komentáre objavili a niesli sa úplne v opačnom duchu než reakcie v Spojených štátoch. Odborníci na protokol zo Spojených štátov argumentujú tým, že japonské zvyky sú veľmi komplexné a poklona môže mať mnoho významov. Práve prevedenie poklony určuje jej význam a hlboký úklon, kedy sa človek pozerá do podlahy sa považuje za akt podriadenosti či prehnanej úcty, bázne. Podobné reakcie vyvolala i Obamova poklona kráľovi Abdullahovi zo Saudskej Arábie v apríli tohto ! roku.

Obama´s bow in Japan subject of controversy by Zuzana Zelenakova

President Obama´s first official visit to the Land of the Rising Sun got much greater press coverage than he would wish. And what is this fuss all about? One bow US President made while shaking hands with Japanese Emperor Akihito before entering the palace. The move Barrack Obama surely meant as a sign of respect for the country he was visiting and its traditions have incensed critics in Washington. "I don't know why President Obama thought that was appropriate. Maybe he thought it would play well in Japan. But it's not appropriate for an American president to bow to a foreign one," said William Kristol, conservative political analyst and commentator. "I'll bet if you! look at pictures of world leaders over 20 years meeting the emperor in Japan, they don't bow." This only contributed to the idea among President´s critics that he has acted in an exceedingly deferential way in his dealings with other heads of the countries and thus has diminished the position of the US as superpower. Fortunately for US President, there were also those who showed understanding and apprehension. "I think it's a gesture of kindness," said Democratic activist Donna Brazile adding that it was Obama´s way of confirming "goodwill between two nations that respect each other." When it comes to the Japanese media mostly they have avoided referring to the incident. However, numerous comments appeared on various Japanese Internet sites and they were quite opposite to the American reactions. Experts on protocol and etiquette in the US argument that Japanese habits are very complex and a bow can have many meanings. The way one bows determines the meaning and a! deep bow when eyes face the floor is considered as an act of ! submissi on, excessive respect. Obama´s bow to King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia in April provoked similar reactions.

NASA Twiterizeaza? by Claudia Sonea

Gloria de alta data a Statelor Unite ale Americii, pare sa se estompeze. Ne mai fiind liderul de odinioara, tara se lupta in zilele noastre sa tina pasul cu restul tarilor si ritmul dezvoltarii lor. Dupa ce recesiunea a fost oficial recunoscuta, multi americani au considerat problema ca o gluma, dar treptat au inceput sa realizeze analizand situatia curenta a tarii lor care a pierdut mare parte din puterea sa economica si militara. Administratia Nationala a Aeronauticii si Spatiului, cunoscuta si sub numele de NASA, este renumita pentru inalta tehnologie, pentru primul zbor spre Luna, pentru Sistemul de ob! servatie a Pamantului, pentru explorarea organismelor de pe intreg Sistemul Solar. Gloria ei a fost construita cu fonduri publice si pana in prezent investitia nu a furnizat nici un profit de ordin economic, care, astfel, adaugate la datoria nationala. Cu toate acestea, aceste cheltuieli irationale ar fi justificate considerand ca s-au facut in beneficiul tarii, pentru a tine pasul cu alte tari, precum Rusia sau Japonia. Prin sprijinirea NASA si a proiectelor sale, guvernul SUA a luptat de fapt pentru a mentine statutul dobandit de-a lungul timpului, avantajul economic si militar. In prezent, agentia se confrunta cu amenintarea de a ramane fara fondurile necesare de la Casa Alba, datorita faptului ca sunt probleme mai presante care trebuie rezolvate, precum rata somajului. Uitand de chestiuni precum securitate si demnitatea, NASA a lansat o campanie cu scopul de a obtine sprijinul publicului larg prin intermediul site-urilor sociale si, m! ai recent, printr-un concurs care a dat utilizatorilor lui Twi! tter san sa de a fi calatori pe o naveta spatiala. 21 de persoane norocoase au fost alese, nu numai din SUA, dar si din alte tari. Sanatate, norocosilor!. Va puteti imagina cat de jos poate ajunge o institutie doar uitandu-va la la NASA si amintindu-va ca, acum 20 de ani nici macar in vis nu am fi avut acces la o baza americana. SUA a fost grav afectat de recesiunea si intrebarea care ramane este: ce urmeaza?

Kradenje po prodavnici by Silvia Szarkova

Vo red - sleduva ušte edna zdodevna prikazna koja započnuva so zborovite recesija i pad? Vi se smači od ovie zborovi? Možebi, no pomislete i na drugata strana na kartata vo ovaa igra - za lugjeto što gi gubat svoite rabotni mesta vo ovaa situacija. Bez somnež, lugjeto mora da razmislat za sekoja potrošena parička, no poradi globalnata recesija povekjeto od niv rečisi se pretvoraat vo kradci. Spored godišnoto istražuvanje što go napravi Britanskiot centar za maloprodažno istražuvanje objaveno vo četvrtokot, kradenjeto po prodavnici porasnalo za rečisi 6 procenti vo odnos na prethodnata godina, &#! 353;to pretstavuva rečisi 115 milijardi dolari vo biznisi. Ova e mnogu zastrašuvački fakt, so ogled na toa deka pokačuvanjeto pomegju godinite porano iznesuvaše 1.5 procenti. No, toa što gi plaši povekje istražuvačite, e faktot deka se zgolemuva brojot na kradcite po prodavnici od srednata klasa. Spored godišnata anketa - Global Retail Theft Barometer (Globalen barometar za maloprodažni kražbi), za koj e zadolžen Dzošua Bemsfild, lugjeto od srednata klasa obično gi napuštaat prodavnicite so dzebovi polni so francuski sirenja, kvalitetno meso, kozmetika, mobilni telefoni, obleka i drugi dobra koi navistina ne im se neophodni za da se održat vo život tie i nivnite familii - tie ednostavno kradat raboti za da go zadržat životot što vekje ne možat da si go gozvolat.

Najgolemoto zgolemuvanje vo kražbite e zabeležano vo Severna Amerika - 8.1 procent, potoa sleduva Bliskiot Istok so 7.5 i Evropa so 4.7 procenti. Vo suština, kako i da e, kradenjeto po prodavnciite se vrakja vo forma na zgolemuvanje na cenite - sekoj trošok koj vleguva vo biznisot -duri i zagubata, e vklučena vo cenata na robata.

NASA Twitterizing? by Claudia Sonea

The glory that USA once has seems to fade away. No longer the leader that it used to be, the country nowadays struggles to keep up with the rest of the countries and their development. After the recession was officially acknowledged, many Americans regarded the matter as a joke, but gradually they started to realize of the actual estate of a country that lost most of its economic and military strength. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration, also known as NASA, is famous for the high technology, for the first flight to the Moon, for the Earth Observing System, for the exploration of bodies throug! hout the Solar System. Its glory was built with public funds and until now the investment didn’t provide any economical profits, which thus added to the national debt. Nonetheless, this irrational spending would be justified considering that it was for the benefit of the country, to keep up with other countries like Russia or Japan. By supporting NASA and its projects, US government was in fact struggling to maintain the status gained in time, its economic and military advantage. Nowadays, the agency faces the threat to remain without the necessary funding from the White House due the fact that more pressing matters are to be solved like unemployment rate. Forgetting about security and dignity, NASA launched a campaign with the purpose of getting support from the public through social sites and more recently through a contest that gave Twitter’s users the chance to be in a space shuttle. 21 lucky persons were chosen, not only fr! om US, but also from other countries. Cheers to them. ! You can imagine how low an institution could get just by looking at NASA and remembering that 20 years ago you couldn’t even dream to enter the base. US was hit hard by the recession and the question that remains is: what’s next?

Havajské pláže v ohrození by Zuzana Zelenakova

Jeden z najväčších havajských pokladov je ohrozený, jeho pláže. Miestny obyvatelia si už dlhšie všímajú, že piesočnaté pláže, ktoré sú hlavným lákadlom pre väčšinu turistov, postupne miznú. A nie je to úkaz, ktorý by sa týkal len niektorých pláží, ide o spoločný problém všetkých ostrovov. Geológovia navyše očakávajú, že súčasný stav sa bude v nasledujúcich desaťročiach len zhoršovať. Dôvodom je globálne otep! ľovanie, ktoré vplýva na čoraz rýchlejšie stúpanie hladiny mora. „Už je to pravdepodobne v tom štádiu, kedy sa nám podarí zachrániť niekoľko miest, a zvyšok je už určitým spôsobom odpísaný,“ hovorí pobrežný geológ Dolan Eversole. Podľa odborníkov na ostrove Kauai podlieha procesu erózie približne 70 percent pláží, čo sa týka Oahu, najľudnatejšieho z Havajských ostrovov, za posledné storočie tu zmizlo prípadne sa značne zmenšila rozloha asi 25 percent pláží. Globálne otepľovanie nie je jediným dôvodom. Tento fenomén sa objavil v miestach, kde majú pláže nedostatok piesku a to kvôli rôznym pobrežným stavbám a morským hrádzam, ktoré majú chrániť ! budovy a život na pobreží. Morské hrá! dze s 37;ce zabraňujú zvetrávaniu pobrežných oblastí, ale zároveň spôsobujú, že erózia sa namiesto toho prejaví na plážach. Strata pláží by negatívne ovplyvnila Havaj vo viacerých smeroch. Turizmus je pre ostrovy hlavným zdrojom príjmov. Ročne štátu prináša približne 11,4 miliárd dolárov. Utrpel by takisto ekosystém na morskom pobreží. Piesočnaté pláže sú domovom mnohých rastlín a živočíchov, kareta obrovská si tu napríklad kladie vajíčka. Piesočnaté pláže sú navyše súčasťou havajského dedičstva a sú hlboko zakorenené v tamojšej kultúre. Sú miestom odpočinku, zábavy a tiež zdrojom energie.

Hawaii beaches starving for sand by Zuzana Zelenakova

One of the most significant features of Hawaii is threatened, its beaches. Locals notice that white sandy beaches which are the reason for vast majority of tourists to come to the islands are gradually disappearing. And it is happening not only with several beaches but all over the islands. Geologists expect the present condition to deteriorate further in years to follow and that is due to global warming that makes sea levels rise more and more rapidly. "It will probably have occurred to a scale that we will have only been able to save a few places and maintain beaches, and the rest are kind of a write-off," said coastal geologist Dolan Eversole. According to the experts a! bout 70 percent of Kauai beaches are eroding, when it comes to Oahu, the most populous of Hawaii islands, about 25 percent of its beaches have been lost or has shrank significantly over the last century. The global warming is not the only reason for this development. The losses occurred in places where beaches lacked sand in front of various shoreline structures and seawalls constructed to protect buildings and coast in general. Seawalls prevent the coastal lands from eroding but at the same time redirect the erosion to the beaches. The loss of shoreline would affect Hawaii on many levels. The tourism is the main source of income for the islands. The annual tourism revenue is about $11.4 billion. Also the coastal marine ecosystem would suffer as a result. Sandy beaches are important to many plants and animals, for example the green sea turtle that lays eggs there. In addition, sandy beaches are a part of Hawaii´s heritage and are deeply rooted in its culture. They are ! the place of relaxation, enjoyment and the source of higher en! ergy for Hawaii´s people.

L'armée des USA - un précipiste ? by Claudia Sonea

Les êtres humains sont caractérisés par les paradoxes qui les font lutter pendant toutes leurs vies entre une ou plusieurs options disponibles. Cependant, la lutte s'approfondit quand l'un est divisé par la conscience de son devoir et l'intensité de ses désires. Le plus souvent, vous rencontrerez ce type de conflit (l'aspect/l'esprit ; le devoir/le désir) dans l'armée où on doit se soumettre plus au code, aux rangs supérieurs même au prix d'abandonner sa croyance personnelle, et ses désires. Comme en montrent les événements récents qui ont eu lieu dans l'armée des USA, le désaccord à ! l'intérieur du soldat est habituellement trop fort et se developpe graduellement jusqu'à ce qu'un écroulement se produise. La pression seule a-t-elle pu transformer un psychiatre lucide en meurtrier sang-froid ? Commandant. Nidal Malik Hasan semblait être un homme ordinaire de 39 ans qui allait à l'église, et travaillait sans même évoquer un plus petit soupçon d'avoir eu des ennuis. Cependant, il les a eu et ses supérieurs auraient dû se rendre compte que son origine arabe le rendrait peu complaissant d'accepter l'interférence illégale des USA dans les pays comme l'Irak ou l'Afghanistan. Ses camarades au travail n'ont eu rien à se plaindre, car il a été commis à son travail et il n'avait jamais montré des points de vue extrémistes auparavant. Le 5 Novembre tout en faisant queue pour les examens médicaux exigés avant son déploiement,! Hasan s'est finalement éffondu et a commencé la plu! s mauvai se tiraillerie en masse dans le périmètre d'une base militaire, qui a coûté 12 personnes mortes et 30 personnes gravement blessées y compris l'assassin. Il y a une recherche continue qui est censée faire la lumière dans ce cas controversé, qui se veut examiner les raisons de l'attaquant et si dans la confusion et la panique créées il y avait d'autres qui ont provoqué le feu aussi bien ou si l'attaquant avait des associés ou pas. L'attaque de jeudi n'était pas le premier incident qui a eu lieu à la place de Fort Hood et il y a un programme étendu de réadaptation pour ceux qui suffrent du syndrome post-traumatique. L'armée des USA traite des suicides, désorganisations, insurgés internes et le président ne pense pas même au recul promis pendant les élections, en plus, il projette d'envoyer plus de troupes. Ainsi, ne partez pas, plus à venir…!

Palin also writes harshly about Katie Couric, CBS achor, who did some interviews with her- according to Palin, she is biased and she and CBS left out for her substantive remarks and were much easier on her Democratic counterpart Joe Biden. But Palin got know, that she probably suffers from low self esteem- this is what she was told by one of her aide Nicolle Wallace, and she immediately started to feel sorry for her. She mentions the Money for campaign, the luxury stuff she and her family were given in campaign, she remember her childhood, loving and caring mother.

O Kradnuti by Silvia Szarkova

Takze v poriadku- dalsi nudni clanok, ktory bude opat zacinat slovami recesia a kriza? Mate uz dost tychto slov? Mozno, ale pouvazujete tiez nad druhov stranov karty v tejto hre- co tak ludia, ktori stracaju pracu v tejto situacii. Bez pochyb, ludia musia zvazovat kazdy minuty cent, ale prave kvoli globalnej recesii, mnoho z nich je nachylnych aby sa stali zlodejmi. Podla kazdorocneho vyskumu, ktory robi britska agentura Centra pre obchodnicky vyskum, ktora bola vydana v Utorok, kradnutie v obchodoch vzrasto o neuveritelnych 6 percent za posledny rok, co znamena asi 115 miliard dolarov biznisu. Toto je velmi odstrasujuci fakt, ked si zoberete, z epriemerny medzirocny rast z! vykol byt okolo 1.5 percent. Ale co vyskumnikov desi ovela viac, je to, ze rastie pocet ludi, ktory kradnu v obchodoch prave z radov ludi, ktori pochadzaju zo strednej triedy. Podla kazdorocneho vyskumu- Barometer Kradezi v obchodnom odvetvi pod vedenim riaditela Joshuu Bamfielda, zlodeji zo strednej vrstvy obycajne opustaju chod z vreckami zapratanymi francuzskymi syrmi, kvalitnym mesom, kozmetikov, mobilnymi telefomni, s oblecenim a inymi vecami, ktore nevyhnutne nepotrebuju k zivotu svojich rodin- jednoducho ich ukradnu, aby si zaobstrali veci na udrzanie zivota, ktory si uz viac nemozu dovolit. Pre znizujice sa naklady, obchodnici museli znizit naklady na ochranku a bezpecnost v obchodoch, a prave toto stazuje situaciu este viac. „ Navyse, k obvyklym kriminalnikom, s apridava mnoho novacikov, ktori objavili, ze prilis ani neriskuju ze sa daju chytit, a v pripade ze sa tak stane, nezaplatia mnoho za kradez, a v podstate to cele zvaluju na tazke casy v ktorych zij! eme, “ vravi Bamfield. Najvacsi narast v kradeziach bol! zazname nany v Severnej Amerike- 8,1 %, potom je na rade Stredny Vychod s 7,5 % a Europa s 4,7%. V skutocnosti, kradeze v obchodoch sa odzrkadluju vo zvysovani cien- vsetky naklady podnikania- a dokonca ja strata- sa premietnu do ceny tovaru. Najlepsia vec, ktora sa moze urobit, vravi Bamfield, je ivestovat do ochranky.

Shoplifting by Silvia Szarkova

All right- another boring story starting with the words racesion and downturn? Fed up with those words? Maybe, but consider the another side of the card in this game- what about the people loosing jobs in this situation. No doubt, people have to consider each spent penny, but because of the global recession more of them are likely to turn into thieves. According to the annual survey made by Britain based Center for Retail Research released on Tuesday, shoplifting has risen by nearly 6 per cent over the past year, which represent naerly 115 biliion of dollars in business. This is a very scary fact regarding that the rise between years used to be 1.5 per cent. But what scares! the researchers more, is the fact that a growing number of new shoplifters are from middle-class people. According to the annual survey- Global Retail Theft Barometer in charge of director Joshua Bamfield, middle class people usually leave shops with pockets stuffed by French cheeses, quality meats, cosmetics, mobile phones, clothing and other goods they really do not need to keep themselves and their families alive- they simply steal things to maintain the life they can afford no longer. Because of the cutting costs, retailers had to get rid of security and this is what is making the situation even harder. In addition to the usual criminals, you have lots of newcomers to stealing who figure they don't run much risk at getting caught, won't pay much of a price if they are and justify their action on the hard times we're all facing, " says Bamfield. The biggest increase in thieves occured in Nort America- 8.1%, than comes Middle East with 7.5% and Europe 4.7 %. In fact, ! however, shoplifting comes back in form of price lifting- any ! cost inc luded to business- even the loss- is included in the price of merchandise. The best thing to do, says Bamfield, is to invest to better security.

Le mystère du méthane à Colorado by Silvia Szarkova

Walsenburg, la ville des fermes à Colorado et ses citoyens luttent à cause de deux éléments différents mais importants - le gaz naturel et l'eau. Les citoyens ont peur, ce que l'eau est surcontaminée avec le méthane et le sodium et sa consommation n'est pas bonne. "L'eau est si saturée avec le méthane et d'autres produits chimiques qu'il ne devrait pas être utilisé pour la consommation humaine," dit Bernice Angely, qui doit transporter de l'eau dans une camionnette de la distance de 10 miles de sa maison. Il y a deux ans, son puits a explosé et celui-ci et un autre incident fait les fonctionnaires à penser au ! forage de gaz naturel à Walsenburg. Les deux événements en 2007 ont décliné les fonctionnaires de Colorado de suspendre le forage de gaz naturel dans la région avant que quelqu'un apprenne pourquoi et où les niveaux dangereux de méthane entraient dans le niveau de l'eau. Mais on est aujourd'hui en 2009 et Walsenberg attend toujours. Petroglyph Energy, Inc., la société basée d'Idaho avait foré dans la région depuis 1999 avant qu'ils aient suspendu les travaux. Mais Petroglyph dit, ce n'est pas clair, que le forage a fait replonger le méthane dans l'eau. Et comme ils croient, il y a une région prometteuse du gaz, ils espèrent que les formations peu profondes d'eau utilisées par les propriétaires ne sont pas raccordées à celles produites par le forage. En créant la barrière hydraulique ils projettent de prévenir des écoulements de gaz dans l'eau. Steve Gun! derson, le directeur de division de contrôle de qualit! 33; d'ea u de Colorado, dit que Petroglyph devra construire une usine de traitement d'eau avant qu'il reçoit une nouvelle permission de continuer avec le forage. La vieille permission a permis à Petroglyph d'exploiter 8 milliongallons de l'eau chaque jour.

Amerikanskata vojska - propast? by Claudia Sonea

Čovečkite suštestva se karakterizirani so paradoksi koi pravat tie da se borat cel život pomegju edna ili povekje opcii. Kako i da e, borbata se zgolemuva koga nekoj e podelen pomegju svesnosta za svojata obvrska i intenzitetot na negovite želbi.

Spored poslednite nastani, što se slučija vo amerikanskata armija pokažuvaat deka sudirot vo vojnikot e presilen i se gradi postepeno sé dodeka ne se pojavi! nekakov presvrt. Može li samiot pritisok da pretvori psihijtar so bistar um vo ladnokrven ubiec?
