I prefer McD's for the most part. But a little KFC once in a while is ok. I think they recently changed the type of oil they use, less trans-fats or something like that. Better for your arteries, I guess.

UK, Ireland / Polish living in UK wants to divorce Polish husband [13]
In some cultures, it is acceptable to text somebody threet times stating:
I divorce you. I divorce you. I divorce you.
Then she would be right as rain. But maybe not in the Polish culture. You better look a little farther into that one.
How do we go about getting the divorce?

News / 2010 Polish Presidential Election [39]
The funny thing about history is that you can look back and think, "we should have done this differently" or "that wasn't the best move we could have made". Is it possible that Poles could have had time to reflect on the relationship at that time and become enlightened, looking to improve relationships, rather than going back for a second poke at Germany's proverbial eye? If you listen to the polls, LK was suffering badly compared to other candidates. Maybe Poland might not have the same mindset they had during those rough times a while back...

The two physicists are the third pair of researchers to have received the Copernicus Award, which the DFG and FNP have conferred every two years since 2006 to one scientific personality from Germany and one from Poland. The award is named after the astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus (1473-1543) and is intended to serve as a symbol of the close cooperation between Germany and Poland in the area of research.

And the guys who stole the sign have apparently skipped out on their jail sentence....
Three Polish men convicted of stealing the famous Auschwitz "Arbeit Macht Frei" sign failed to show up for their prison sentences.
The men had been given compassionate leave following sentencing and before entering prison. Two are brothers who were visiting their sick mother; the other man was allowed to complete his wedding plans.

Don't laugh. The CIA did it in New York. Captain Sullenburgermeister was able to direct the plane into the Hudson river, and all aboard were saved. Just shows that the CIA isn't as good as the NKVD.
