News / Decoded talks inside Poland's president's plane are released in Internet [337]

^^^ but i see nothing logical about your "rantings" bud.. seriously.. maybe you need to reread what you wrote... what i and a couple of others keep repeating to you follows logic.. and like i said, this looked like a pilot error from the start.. i also have held conviction that the pilots may have been pressured to land which these transcripts sure seem to suggest that it may have been so.. there were people in the cockpit that did not belong there and one of them being the secretary of the prez.. just makes it seem like pressure that much more..

I just can't understand why that guy who took that controversial video of the plane crash had to die.

That alone makes this plane crash tragedy very suspicious.

again, linky?

A crew of nearly 100 would surely have planned their journey in advance. The fact is that fog can be easily negotiated by experienced pilots and they didn't need to rush the plane down.

Landing the plane was not a heroic act when they had a bailout option.

they were late.. google if you don't believe me..

they had a bailout plan but once again, they were late.. it's a bit of a polish trait, albeit not a great one there.

See I knew it!!!!! There's a proof here!

mystery solved. lol

Their survival instincts SURELY would have kicked in.

too late..

I find that hard to believe.

you're the one trying to believe conspiracy theories which i have a hard time believing.. most of us are going on some fact here whilst you are going on thin air..

They were clearly alerted by the TAWS system and would have taken evasive action.

you'd think but it's highly probable that they were thinking it's the runway and that they were about to see it.. it's obvious that no one was looking at the instruments and that is what at least a couple of them should have been concentrating on.. not what's outside the windows.. this was not a visual landing..

All that aside, they apparently weren't even flying the plane...

it sure flew itself in the ground, didn't it.. :(

If they weren't flying the plane, what were they doing?

gawking out the portals man...

skull duggery

yeah, just read seanus' post and skip the rest.. lol

Where were the lights and the directions in? Letting themselves die? Are you implying that this was a suicide mission? Did they or did they not have time for evasive maneuvers?

are you freaking kidding me??? how many times do we all have to say that there was fog and their evasive maneuvers came a bit late.. about the time when they said Kuuuuuuuuurwa!!.. can't you freaking read??? seriously man..

And what could the Russian authorities have done as an emergency measure?

what did you want them to do? they told the pilots that the other planes diverted, that the fog was thick.. did you want them to beam someone on board to land the plane for the polaks? dude.. wtf???

This is looking more and more like sloppy flying.

i've been saying from the start that is exactly what it looked like..

Can you prove the authenticity of those transcripts? I certainly can't.

can you prove they aren't? how old are you seanus? seriously dude.. drink a beer and spank the monkey or something.. fcuk..

It's not really all that surprising that they killed themselves. All it takes is someone calling out radar altimeter readings on a non precision approach...

exactly but some can't see what is in plain view..

They killed themselves? Again you are implying suicide.

fcuk dude.. if sloppy work = suicide then yes..

Well, where there is a will, there is a way and I can't believed they lacked the will.

they didn't, they lacked the way.. jeeez

Nooo certainly not...i have the greatest respect for Polish pilots , some of my friends are Polish military pilots...But i just wonder if there is something wrong with the way they are trained or the rules for flying in dodgy conditions...

Its because i have Polish friends who fly that i worry that there is something wrong with the system...!

pressure by this "precious" cargo, maybe? seems to be one thing in common with all these tragedies, no?

History / 'Poland: A Knight Among Nations' - Book about Poland by an American Author, dated 1907 [51]

Well, their punctuality left a LOT to be desired. Most delegations are really punctual and lateness doesn't even cross their mind. I refuse to believe that they would have hashed it together at the last minute, a 70-year anniversary? Nah, I don't buy it!

but it's true.. what don't you buy?? they were late, that is all there is to it..

What 'hero' brushes shoulders with pure idiocy and risks harm to others in such a fashion?

plenty.. why is this unbelievable to you?

The system told them everything, they didn't need to look outside.

and they obviously ignored the warnings.. the TAWS went of so many times..

News / Potheads attack police in Warsaw [40]

Dont care, pot stinks like socks, when i was in Canada entire towns smelled like sh*t, if you dont like pot life becomes bloody hell with all the stench.

it couldn't have been as they don't smoke bunk up there.

besides, drunks reak worse and so the alleys that they **** all over after having too many brewskis.

It really is that simple.

too simple to some.. many like to tell others how to live and then they themselves get caught with their hand in the cookie jar.

I think they have maybe a few hundred customers at best!

and most aren't even locals..

and there's that Bob Marley music in the background.........

i think those are banjos you are hearing mate. lol

However, the mj they get in the coffeeshops is for most part genetically manipulated and is much, much stronger, so they will most likely get some sort of an LSD trip when they use the same amount in their joints. And that causes ppl to pass out on the streets or get epileptic-like symptoms. I've seen it a few times happening and I tell you, it's not a nice sight :(

i think most of the time it's from the brownies and not spliffs.

mj is psychologically addictive, not addictive chemically.

it's neither.

You think it looked anything like this?

pot smokers are non violent.. it's the drunks that are. you are buying the propaganda.. reefer madness, i tell ya. jeez.

If its happening in the often draconic states of the USA then it can happen anywhere

actually legalization is happening in the most progressive of states only. California, Washington, Oregon, Wisconsin.. that's it..

Work / Opus Dei opens school in Warsaw [21]

I recently heard that Opus Dei had opened a school in Warsaw....... Any updates on this one.

Later this year, Opus Dei, whose IESE Business School in Barcelona is considered one of Europe's best, plans to open a Warsaw branch. Radoslaw Koszewski, director of the Warsaw program, insists the school will not mix business and religion.

btw. that's from 2006

News / Potheads attack police in Warsaw [40]

where? lol

Yes, it is addictive.

no it is not.. i doubt you have ever partaken if you say that.

Nothing has been studied as much as tobacco. MJ is not in as widespread use as tobacco. Studies and effects just haven't been done.

yes, hmm. i don't know about that and to some extent yes but it has been studied enough to know that it's not as bad as you say and think it is.

You don't know what's in mj that you get on the street.

i can tell you that it's not even close to containing the thousands of poisons that tobacco has because it's chemical content has not been manipulated in the lab like tobacco has.

That's because marijuana is much more of a depressant than alcohol.

no it's not..

Don't know. Mj isn't in widespread use as tobacco and hasn't been studied as much. Also it's hard for me to believe that when smoking maryjane you hold it in your lungs and that doesn't have a detrimental effect on your lungs.

but it has been studied just seems that the studies don't fit into all the righteous drunk's idea of what they think mj is so those studies are discounted.. mj has a fraction of the poisonous chemicals that cigarettes do.. mj is not addictive.. etc.. it's not even close to the kind of poison alcohol or tobacco are.

History / Should visitors to Auschwitz pay an entrance fee? [82]

set two rates resident rate $5 and non resident $15

i don't think that past residents of the camp should pay anything.. everyone else though, is another story.

Softdrugs doesn't harm anybody any more than the tobacco

actually tobacco is more dangerous then mj

Society's already got enough problems without unleashing a bunch of druggies on it.

are you serious? you may actually look into mj sometime because what is coming out of your mouth (keyboard) is pure ignorance.

None of the states business.

well said

Real Estate / PLN 2,500 the going rate for an apartment in Poland [210]

can i take a loan in the US and and spend it in PL?

i'd say that would possibly be your best as i highly doubt you could get one in PL and if you could, they'd rape you hard on the percentages..

You won't be able to cover expenses with the rent, and I think they are way way way overpriced for all the reasons mentioned earlier.

oh, i was thinking for oneself instead of investment.. if the latter, you are right.. it'd be a loss..

The worlds creditors are starting to lose interest in treasuries, which means they don't trust the ability of the currency to hold value, which means the paper is worthless.

i don't think so.. but we shall see.

What a deal!

is that sarcasm?

at least YOU own that appt.. no?

It's a great idea. It's not an asset bubble, it's a safe haven from debt laden paper.

it's way overpriced at the moment.. it's bound to crash soon enough.. just you watch

Buy gold, thank me for it in 5 years.

terrible idea at the moment.. the next bubble to pop.

would any of you living abroad recommend buying an apartment in Poland, rent it out and try to manage it from across the ocean...?

nope..

Also, it would be better if you gave it to a reputable company to let it out and look after it, on your behalf.

you'll get raped by those scoundrels.
