News / THE HOMINTERN IN POLAND? [80]

to all of you who think informing everyone about everything in any time available is the right thing to do - do you think it is adviseable to tell 5-6-7 year old kids about the details of sexual life?? any serious thoughts - why do all children have to be taught the same (sexual education haha - the more there is sexual eductation it seems the more teenage pregnancies occur) at the same age even if their parents don't wish for it

Polonius3:
When someone is forced to explain to his 5-year-old son

Did you know there is a 1-in-10 chances your son was born gay? These are some pretty good odds. Will you call him a "homo" when he is a teenager?

and it is an arguement against what???

When someone is forced to explain to his 5-year-old son why all those funny looking lewdly gyrating, feather, wig and make-up blokes are riding platforms through the streets to the tune of deafening techno rhythms, that is no longer "people's private business" but a public display being forced upon hapless bystanders and residents.

can't agree more

How do you know it was suicide?

because there were Blida's fingertips on the weapon used? in the places normal for holding a gun to fire it?

No there's not which is why it was dropped

it was dropped for political reasons after PO came to power - they badly needed to prove PiS was badly misusing the justice system (if you call what PiS did badly misuse what do you call occasions when prosecutors drop cases because the people in question have these or other influential friends)

btw - how old are you Sokrates ???

Yup, that would explain your political standing, a total lack of knowledge, the funds EU gave us were missapropriated, chiefly by your beloved PiS.

For crimes they did not commit?

no Mr Kaczmarek, Mr Blida, Mr Lepper, Mr G. were all inocent people - are you that same innocent???

sorry anything appart from your own words that reflect your believes to back it??

you must have heard that the first year of PO PSL rule - Poland used just a couple percents of 4 year EU funding grant?

as far as I can remember Polish EU services under Mrs Gęsicka were even praised by the European Commision itself for the one of the highest usages of funds available from the EU - like I said you must be living in some parallel reality

Worst of all they attempted to use these cases as propaganda, you dont destroy your own citizens and sh*t on their rights and liberties to get votes, thats just not right.

sorry but can you name actually anything here - do you find the right to steal state money to take bribes and similar a basic human right?? or was there anything else

btw Blida felt she had enough behind her fingernails to commit suicide - I can't think for any other reason why she would

and guess what there was enough of hints to pusue Blida's act

btw I would never call putting peolple to justice destroying them - giving the right name to their deeds is destroying them neither

Like with the knowledge of UE grants to our shipyards during PiS which were squandered?

I am not really sure you are believing what you say - was UE first trying to grant help to Polish shipyards and within a year or so demanding the help from the Polish state to be withdrawn and paid back - or was it perhaps that EU was ready to grant some help on condition MOST of the industry will be shut down and the production of the remaining heavily reduced in effect being near-elimination of the industry (and whose needs would it suit if not subsidised German shipbuilding industry) do you think there is much far play in European politics???

Afghanistan scandal - our soldiers fired on civilians by mistake and on American orders and they treated them like worst scum and criminals.

you must be really joking - I don't think you read anything substantial on that case - there was media hype and now the case is gone away - any wonder why? because there was no fault on the soldiers side - someone though really wanted that there was - the fault lay on the side of the equipment - ever heard of faulty mortar sights or similar? - do you think that Polish troops went to Afghanistan with lasers and A-117s?

Beside PiS is a socialist party and they social politics are flawed, the fact noticed by a huge number of people.

yeah - what is much different in internal PO politics? is it any more liberal economically and less socialistic? in what field? in phraseology?

I'm against closing down our shipyards and i too see it as a fairly hostile move on part of Germany and France but the brutal fact is our goverment could have easily saved our shipyards but the indolence and incompetence of several goverments including PiS led us to the point we're in now, not EU, not Germany and not France, our goverment.

I am not sure you are able to back this view up by any real knowledge, do you?

How about PSL?

how about them not really willing to join in? don't you think PiS would rather have PSL and LPR as coalition partners - PSL + PiS government still had no majority in the Parliament so they would still need LPR cause Samoobrona was out of question for PSL - any ideas - please stop pretending you follow and understand Polish politics - no matter what nationality you are

The shipyard situation is also their fault as much as PO, they failed to adress it just as badly as PO did.

Btw, thats the first time in a while that i bumped into hardcore PiS electorate :)

you know what I mean buy ridiculous demands on the side of EU - the demands to stop supporting shipbuilding industry and even to give the help back while at the same time Germany are subsidising their shipbuilding since the 80's and noone has ever given a damn about it

e, i'm perfectly aware of what PO is doing and they're still not as bad as PiS but they are bad, i chose what i perceive as the lesser of two evils and thats all there is to it.

yeah you must be living in parallel universe - sorry what was so wrong with PiS - corruption? - giving in to ridiculous EU demands? giving in to Russia for no gains whatsoever (or symbolic)

you're still not pissed enough with PO - goodness me - they still have so much to privatize - and no CBA will follow them anymore - 2 years of relative paradise for PO-like parasites - will you get eventually pissed with them when they take 10 value of privatized industies?

gumishu:
blame PiS for being forced to make coalitions.

I blame PiS for not having a plan on how to develop Poland internally and externally and trying to build their image by cheap provocations typical of communist era, they'd grab some small time corruption case in the govt and make it out like all our economic and diplomatic problems are gone because they're puting some small time thief in the slammer.

Sorry but thats just not benefitting us in any way, its just building their image for the masses while the situation continues to be bad.

you're living in outer space man sort of - not in real Poland

sorry - I don't understand what you mean by cheap provocations typical of communist era cause I don't remember any such provocations on the side of the communist - anyway you forget the issue of goal - even if the means were unfotunate the goal was honorable

TKM - Teraz kurwa my - was allegedly said by one of the Kaczyńskis after AWS won election in 1997

Much of the electorate of PiS were simple people from the country prone to soak up the populist crap, PO won mainly as a counter to PiS, i myself voted not as much for PO as against PiS.

and what would happen in case of an economical crisis.

Collapse of the current party system and erection of a new one, hopefully better. Current political elites are completely incapable of dealing with any major issue.

I wonder who are you voting for now hehehee - PO again yeah ??? yes - create new party Sokrates go on - wish you good luck

LPR was not the only party in the Polish parliment - PIS chose to make a coalition with them because PIS approved of what LPR represented not because they had no other choice.

yeah - and could you name those willing to create a coalition ???

I **** on what opinion we have in the world as long as the world respects our interests

The international image translates directly into our interests being more secure, you fail at diplomacy.

I must be missing something - what kind of gains you see in Germany and Russia thanks to our 'sleek' diplomacy instead of the one taking care of Polish interests

we've got the dockyards while Germany and France went on to subsidise their shipbuildin industry for years and still do, even not giving a flying **** to what 'Nellie Croes' threatened them - Mr Sarkozy said - we will save our industry and after the crisis is over you try to make us pay for it

For God's sake, we still have statues glorifying the Soviet invader in Warsaw!

Mikke would plough this over.

Mikke is a freak not living in the real world - a splendid example of a doctriner

quote=TheOther]Sokrates:
now we're stuck with them for another 5-10 years

Look at the former GDR - they are still stuck with the commies after 20 years. The only difference to the past: instead of being incarcerated by those SED criminals, people vote for them in free elections nowadays (for a reason). Are you really sure that Poland will get rid of the communists within the next 5 to 10 years?[/quote]

you don't see the main difference - there are hardly any judges who were part of communist system of GDR still in power and many many other influential people are no longer influential - this is not the case in Poland

the former GDR Germans can vote (some of course for PDS or Linke - but still they don't gain power there) - they won't be running their courts etc etc

I can't think of another time in history when the international image of Poland was dirtied so much as it was during the reign of PIS.

knock your head against the wall pall
I **** on what opinion we have in the world as long as the world respects our interests

The brief and unhappy PiS regime, during which Premier marcinkiewicz had to be smuggled through the fire exit if Chatham House in London due to the Poles demonstrating outside, can be characterised by the famous quote from Jarosław K. about corruption, "teraz kurwa my", in English "now it's our f***ing turn".

misquote - you are like a drunk child in the fog - stop pretending you know anything of significance about Polish politics

Most people I talk with hate PiS, and especially Kaczyński; they just can't say why, but they know they do.

this is an important observation - they were conditioned to hating Kaczyńskis (look up media)

Language / How does Polish sound to you? How to make Polish sound more pleasurable? [100]

it could be as well derived from "Nemedians", a celtic tribe which is supposed to live on German territory before the Germans moved in. Don't know if this is true, but it does make some sense if you compare the words

doesn't make sense linguistically nor geographically - Slavs did not enter Poland untill 6th century AD and probably had no direct contact with ANY Celtic tribes for the most part of their history - Niemiec comes from niemy which means dumb (unable to speak) - the ethymology is quite obvious and cannot be seriously contested - it of course does not mean Germanic tribes were unable to speak - it means they Slavs were unable to understand them

Skaansk is practically Swedish with a caricatured vulgar Copnehagen accent.

Skansk was always influenced by Danish - Skania (Skaane) has only become part of Sweden in the middle of the 17th century - and it's language has always been something halfway from Danish to Swedish (according to my book knowledge ;)

History / Responsibility for Murder of Catholic Poles during WWII ? [172]

You can get temporary visa - don't know for how long they are valid (I have never been to Israël), but I take it that if you are there based on those for 3 years out of the last 5, you can apply.

I think you don't know what you are writing about. It's not that I do. But I am pretty sure you have next to zero knowlegde of the practice. (say permanent residence issues)

History / Responsibility for Murder of Catholic Poles during WWII ? [172]

Adults may acquire Israeli citizenship through naturalization. To be eligible for naturalization, a person must have resided in Israel for three years out of the previous five years. In addition, the applicant must have a right to reside in Israel on a permanent basis. All naturalization requests are, however, at the discretion of the Minister of the Interior.

a wikipedia excerpt - you have to be legally residing in Israel for three year out of last five - do you think Polish people easily get (permanent) residency in Israel? what does the discretion of the Ministry of Interior mean - I guess it means they grant citizenship whom they wish

when a Pole wants to emigrate to Israël he can.

it doesn't reflect what you quote or I have some reading disorder - Poles can go to Israel yes - but I hardly can imagine they receive any residence status there - I bet they just stay and work there illegally (unless being of Jewish descent)

Food / Is there any other Polish seafood exept herring and carp? [30]

no I'm not kidding - Polish pierogies with potato filling are on the salty side - the filling is actually mashed potatoes, quark (or cottage cheese - quark is sour), fried chopped onion and black pepper); there are pierogies on the sweet side but they are really sweet - pierogies with just sweetened quark (should have quite a lot of sugar) or pierogies with fruits - the best are strawberry and European blueberry - these call for lots of sugar too (the sugar naturally goes to the filling - but they are also served with the soured cream (der Polnische art ;) and again sugar on top of it

I don't think you get anything tasty putting sweet potato or yam as a filling for pierogies - it's gonna be pretty bland I imagine

Sweet potato pierogies

I very much doubt it is a good idea

I can give you a hint to a Polish-Mexican mix sort of (hot) - which I invented myself
let me know if you are interested (requires good kiszone ogórki together with the juice from the jar and prefferably also the bits of garlic and horseradish that are put into the kiszone ogórki jar)

Food / Is there any other Polish seafood exept herring and carp? [30]

no clams in Poland, (except some top restuarants and few delicatessen)
I guess quids don't suit your needs here (but they are available here and there)
carp is actually no sea food - cause it doesn't live in salty waters
there are dishes that make use of fresh water fish like solyanka but it's not a popular thing in Poland and fresh water fish don't make their way to shops that often (carp is the Christmas exception)

just go and find a fish shop (sklep rybny) or fish department and see what you can get - I am no fish expert too

Travel / Parks in Ferio Gaj - Wroclaw [6]

I am not sure if the space is still empty - but there was a vast empty space starting in the vicinity of the main railway station and going down along Borowska street - somewhere in the middle of this is a big mould calle Wzgórze Andersa - it consists largely of rubble of buildings demolished in the area after the war anyway there is park atop that mould/hill which is lit,

I don't know whether the park stretches further around cause i only saw this recently from Ślężna street which is on the other side of the empty space

then there are also gardening allotments on the other side of Gaj and there is a tarmacless road into the area from the Bardzka street (? - not sure here) - this leads also to the cemetry nearby so there is some traffic there and the road is not lit in the evenings

edit: the road is actually a street called Owocowa - (Fruit street ;) - it was tarmacless a couple of years ago - not sure now

edit2: well, it seems there is a decent park a bit nearer from Gaj than the Wzgórze Andersa also between the Borowska and Ślężna street - just looked up my Wrocław city plan (it's not completely up to date and I actually have never been there - don't know if the place is lit - the park is called Park Skowroni - cross Borowska near where it meets Świeradowska (it is the one where Piotr i Paweł sits) - and you should be able to find Działkowa street - a winding one but will get you to the park)

Genealogy / Łokucewicz [10]

oh, I have mislead you here- I am sorry- I thought the excerpt I found was current news - now that I actually read the page it is obvious it was not - this is archival news of 1964 - and two women of the surname were mentioned - Barbara (who probably is the same person as on Nasza Klasa, ) and Regina. No further details there.

the surname is regular Polish not in the sense that it is widely used - I told you it is rather improbable your granddad changed the name because the one you bear after him fits Polish perfectly (but also Belarusian) - this is what I meant saying it is a regular Polish name

Language / 'Gateway' slavic language? [54]

German is more widely understood.

it seems it is useful to know at least some basic German - older Polish generation also understand lots of German - especially those who did their slave work time in the Third Reich - I tend to think that before the war most educated people in Poland knew at least good basics of German ( Yiddish is very close to German so knowledge of German was quite practical even in everyday life)

I knew of one person in Holland (an older guy) who could speak or understand no English but we could talk in German (mind you this was very close to the Dutch-German border - what I guess is though it not that difficult for the Dutch to understand and even speak German - have seen plenty of German TV personalities who were Dutch - many had this particular Dutch accent but I really like it - the Schwitzer Tuetsch has quite similar accent to Dutch language (at least that of the Basel area - I met a group of tourists from there in Poland)
