I keep trying to tell you, we're Jewish.

Not fining your

So, even if we were nobles, we were sure Jewish ones.

coat of arms do not means you are Jewish!
there was not many nobles who were Jewish, to be honest I cannot think about even one. Sure there could be nobles of Jewish origin but that is different kettle of fish.

One for "Margiewicz" has a six-pointed star

Nope - it is one of the oldest Polish coats of arm -a star do not equate Jewish!

Czarnecki Coat of Arms (Note that some contain a six-pointed star).

that is the same coat of arms as for Margiewicz - leliwa.

I already said why.

No you didn't! You said you wouldn't be doing what their are doing - fine! Why would all people emulate you? Why would you want them to emulate you? They have their opinions and views which differs from yours.

So what? Isn't that what democracy is all about?

It is obvious they don`t understand how democracy works.

Neither you do.

Today the roles have reversed: PiS vehemently critisizes the ruling PO`s plan to put 500 radars in the country.

is is democracy - arguments for dimwits.

Love / Are Polish men handsome to you? [182]

in other words, an obvious plagiarism followed by a sentence written in terrible grammar.

next time at least TRY to be convincing.

Well fuzz, let me tell you once again I don't give a fooking copulation what you think about me. But just for the record - both sentences are mine and there is no plagiarism involved.

I keep forgetting that you are really a simple minded simpleton. But TRY in the future to restrain yourself from spreading your confabulations about me.

A long time ago ( fuzz was just a little ball of fuzz)Ironside for the first time in his life has been exposed to American folk. He was shocked, the mixture of human stock, proverbial melting pot of the human race was clearly visible in stature and face of passing crowd.

In his shocked eyes all those accumulated admixtures were pronounced unfavorably in the males of the species - ******** mutants" flashed thru his mind.
However females with their exotic look seemed to be excluded from the harsh judgment of his overloaded senses.

Fuzz are you able to answer a qestion?Without trolling...

Love / Are Polish men handsome to you? [182]

I don't know if this is any indication, but where I'm from, the disparity between looks of women versus men isn't nearly as evident as it is in Poland

How old are you fuzz?
I'm asking not being sarcastic.
From times immemorial it is wise to leave judgment on looks of men for women. What you find attractive in women, irks you in men because you are used to different standards.

For me many Americans men looked like really uncanny mixtures.

If I contact Agnieszka Jarosz, of Zetha Ltd and ask her to give her qualified opinion about the number of Polish passport holders living in the UK at the time of print. of the article, based on the research of “Poles in the UK 2012” survey. Jon 357 will you accept this?

What that survey would add to more thoughtful census.

Life / Poland's concord of cultures [86]

i'm not upset by what you have written but by the fact that in many threads on different subjects you are posting one lines - who build it, it was Germans who did it and so on and on!

It can be interpreted as trolling or as an mental disorder. You have obsession bordering on an unhealthy obsession. You should sort out yourself first.

Who built most of those canals in Poland?

Who built? #Why you are so obsessed with that who? Who destroyed or stolen this or that shoudl be an appropriate retort for you mania! Who destroyed Warsaw, who stolen Gdansk? from whom taxes were extorted for most of those projects.

And about 40% of canals in Poland has been build either by Poles( autonomous Polish Kingdom 1815-1831) or the Polish state. Also many canals build by Polish government are in today Belarus and Ukraine.

Just take a chill pill.

Genealogy / Polish looks? [1410]

Telling apart different Northern Europeans is pretty near impossible if you base it on physical appearance alone.

I have been mistaken for a German, French, Dutch, and English.by the different people and in the different circumference of course.
Saying that I believe that locals can spot foreigners with a reasonable degree of accuracy.

Be quiet ironside or think about what youre saying a bit more.

I think you should make yourself more clear.
Either:
- You can spot Poles
-You can spot Eastern Europeans.
You cannot say that you are able to spot Poles because of

an exclusive Eastern European thing.

News / Achievements of the Tusk's Polish government [538]

So how come they were to
Ironside:
appease one of the many cliques which support them
when what they did was only "changing group" not producing more children?

Is it me? I try again.
We are talking about schools not about toddler minding - lets focus!
In schools due to general decrease of the number of children there are shortages of pupils.
As you well know the government of Poland is not going to support classes with five or eight children. Schools will be closed and integrated. Yet you need only certain number of teachers.

It stands to logic if you make from two schools - one!
The rest of the teachers are redundant.
If you make six years attend the school you increase number of children and thus prolong employment for some teachers and most importantly for the head master.

Are you stupid, wikipedia is one of the least reliable sources! Oo You bloody troll!!!

It is census 2011 not wiki

Eastern European or Polish? It is not an interchangeable word as you lot seems to think.
Anyway it would render your observation invalid as you have specifically claimed to be able to spot Poles not Eastern Europeans.

Oh Lord.... PIS followers are frustrated indeed! :-)

Oh did you visit toiled today if not I think it is a high time!

Those PO worshipers, they lost ability to debate, they just spawn rubbish and spread it thick.....!

You know that in kindergardens you also have teachers

So? There is more children than kindergartens. Toddler minding will always be in high demand.

Also that some of them are in ZNP?

So?

Your knowledge about the subject is alarmingly low. Stop talking about things you have no idea of.

Oh shut up! The only reason you are supporting that reform is because it was made by the PO!
The only reason they did it was to appease one of the many cliques which support them - teachers from ZNP! There is not enough children to keep those old geezers employed. So that make six years old go to school to improve teachers income.

There is nothing that indicated it has been done to ensure development of the children. In fact schools aren't ready for six years old and after all this talk about special preparation and treatment they will be just herded along as any seven years old.

You are that kind of person peewee, you are just ready to say any BS or lie just to protect your ass. Miserable Soviets, thanks to people like you Poland is going to the dogs.

Even tons of books written by Soviets and their spawn cannot change the fact that most of their so called wisdom is just BS!

that's what your British countrymen say. try to convince them, I can't do that (obviously because I'm a defensive Pole)

Obviously people can recognize foreigners by certain characteristics they cannot quite put their finger on it. You are making a big deal out of it.

Questions about typical Polish look are being asked mostly by Pol-Am for the obvious reason.
Others are just adding their observations or thoughts on the subject. After all it is the Internet.:)
It doesn't need to be consistent or well thought thru.
No big deal!

Am afraid pawian is right

Well do you have any prove? In form of throughout research?If not you are not in positions to claim anything.
As for your examples - I'm not saying that everything was top world class but neither everything was a worthless junk.

Even the shipyards were not that efficient

Actually they were efficient enough.

she couldn't under the commies make any decent products to compete against the West.

actually she could - like optical fiber, and some high tech items and

That is only few but I haven't even researched it properly. However if somebody wants to claim that 90% of Poland's industry was a worthless junk he better provide some prove.

You gotta understand that the market forces are very brutal, just look at Yorkshire, which used to be a mighty mfg place, but now it's a pretty much rundown city.

Wasn't gov done all the dirty job for so called the market forces?Fat cats and some behind the scene manipulation ain't appeal to me as something inevitable and good.
