I will begin with the quote: “To our Euro (ha, we fucked up beautifully!), to all of today's football, this romanticist atavism fits like coffee to follow, so something needs to be done with it, but what?”. The quote comes from a letter from Marcin Wrocławski to Jan Jo Rabenda. The second sought publication in Polish of the fresh by Czech author Eduardo Bass Club 11, telling the communicative of his father and eleven sons who created an undefeated football team. The letter I found in the essay Happy Eleven Mark Bienczyk, written in 2012, but as you can see, this passage is timeless. Fits like a Euro 2024. To the others, too.

It occurred that millions of dollars were moving around the pitch, in any cases close to 2 teams being valued at half a billion petrodollars. Buying footballers is simply a kind of modern slave trade, with slaves not footballers, but we who are willing to spend and get excited about it. individual has to cover it. any part of it is even in a scarf that the fans wave, singing that nothing bad happened. The more the footballers are guaranteed, due to the fact that bonuses are guaranteed. I can tell the difference between a free throw and a different one, and even a criminal one, although they are all – to my large disappointment – but kicks. The latter, or criminal one, became an chance for national debate.

Thanks to the punishment we went to these competitions; so we were scored goals, and our last kick of this type, repeated to effect, will besides go to past as a specialty of our best kicker, whose brilliance dies in the general marazma of the representation. All countries should participate in the championships. Without any eliminations, due to the fact that what a selection, since first any exotic countries are searched for on the map, so that 1 in 2 of them gets to the party, and then he experiences – like us – disappointment, due to the fact that he did not leave the group, which, as it turns out, is not so difficult. Just don't let yourself get shot. The last Euro, thanks to VAR's countless checks on the situation, has clearly lost its spontaneity. If the justice didn't whistle in time and alternatively gets into watching on the screen all this, the show loses its quality. How many goals have not been recognised for this!

Probably the same amount of suicides as the Euro. Goli is mostly fewer in matches, and if they are, they are fired by players defending with large dedication, but unfortunately, their goal. If it wasn't for this video verification, there would have been more goals. After all, for decades we have remembered those shot from burnt, gained by hand, incorrect decisions of judges, etc. I do not want to say that I miss specified situations and that they are to come back, but the games must besides not decision towards games played by footballers utilizing computer applications.

Does Putin have an opposition?

The war in Ukraine continues, the end can't be seen, and erstwhile a ball was kicked in Germany, Putin went to Kim in North Korea to talk to him about what he had done earlier with Xi Jinping, president of China. But lower. Putin first dug out whoever he wanted from the media, the net controls almost fully, due to the fact that what migrants are trying to do online from abroad, does not have any effect for 1 reason – America and others in western Europe like to invest in killing toys alternatively than in technologies enabling the flow of real information not only about the war in Ukraine into Russia, or something akin to Free Europe. Granted, we were facing penalties for listening to this station, but there, in large-area Russia, Putin won't find so many “cheers” to watch over all farm – that's the first. And secondly, with whom would this West do this Free Russia? With Alla Pugaczova? Or possibly with “multiplicity” or “navalists”, as they call them?

The wife of the deceased A. Navalny, someway in the European institutions, did not call for a greater engagement of the West in the war, saying, "The Russians endure no little in this war." After all, those who escaped the February invasion of Russia in 2022 were not poor. So if they know who they've earned their fortunes with, will they be against him? I uncertainty it. It takes time to affect people in a large area of Russia, but does the West want that? I don't think so – and he makes a mistake, due to the fact that that's little financial costs. What are they counting on? any Brutus? Brutus didn't save the Roman republic. He only provoked a bloody civilian war. Putin destroyed (and inactive does) anyone who might be a possible threat to him.

Even his successful commanders in Donetsk and Lugansk, the FSB only kills because... soldiers liked them. The question is, what can you do now? The U.S. legislature should yet recognise that Russia is simply a country supporting terrorism, and Denmark can yet close the straits for oil tankers from Russia, that I will not mention the breakup of any trade with Russia, even with Belarus, by all European countries. They won't because... money counts. What about Kim and China? Putin told Kim that he gave China exclusive shipping rights over the Tumen River (Tumannaja), which is the border between Russia and the DPRK, including the right to deepen its trough, due to the fact that it is the shortest waterway to the Pacific Ocean from China's Manchuria. I urge a map.

In return, he gets the latest rocket technology. Out of modesty, only the 1 assigned to him did not tell Kim that the Russians already like the Chinese for their husbands, due to the fact that the hardworking, resourceful, care for the household and much little drink. Putin knows this due to the fact that more than 90 years ago the population of Russia was 10 percent in the world, and present it is only 2 percent – and cannon meat will yet become scarce. Unfortunately for us, there are besides those who have not yet evaporated from their heads the Russophilic impulses and delights. Our reliable Mrożek has long ago described the mournful effects of rumbles with rude and stupid alternatively of beating him right in the beak to end this farce. individual online summarized it more extravagantly: "We, the pollinators, are inactive walking with the Russian and the native kacap in tango, inactive in the polonaza's mocking squats, the pipes set forward to them". History hasn't taught us anything yet. Will there always be peace on the Chinese-Polish border? I don't know. WNUK veneer from behind Bug

Diplomacy and again – diplomacy!

Don't hide your head in the sand! Only diplomacy will solve the “Maginota Line” built on the border with Belarus and Kaliningrad. Belarusians are our neighbors, and with neighbours, even erstwhile they are unstable, 1 must someway live and conduct trade, cultural, etc. And president Andrzej Duda should not interfere with the diplomacy of Radosław Sikorski! Sikorski can get him a gathering with Lukashenko. This can be done with the aid of a juror he knows well. I remember a snapshot on tv that Sikorski and Lavrow utilized to smoke cigarettes on the balcony together... Even if president Duda did not want to have photography with Lukashenko, he should now – to improve his reputation – meet him. And possibly that's what would have contributed to ending the war in Ukraine? TREE SKIN STANISLAW

An insulting thought...

A late read article in 1 of the weekly newspapers showed me how strong divisions in Polish society are. So it came to my head an insulting thought that possibly it would be worth giving a political dimension to these hostile antagonisms and dividing our country into 2 independent countries: east Poland and Western Poland, as it did with North and South Korea.

The border would run somewhere east of the Vistula River (possibly after announcing the right referendum, e.g. alternatively of abortion!). In east Poland, Mr Jarosław Kaczyński, in Western Poland – the country of liberal democracy – Mr Donald Tusk, would regulation arbitrarily. I'm certain he'd be very happy to have a hard-working, hard-working, hard-working, hard-working, hard-working, hard-working, hard-working, hard-working, hard-working clerical electorate by the hand of his beloved leader. Mr president would not be disturbed to step out of the hated European Union and make a pact of relationship with Putin, Trump, Orbán and another European populists.

He could freely do "reforms" in the judiciary, subdue the parties to all state institutions and waste taxation money after consideration. In Western Poland, it would have been long ago passed, without any protests, the abortion bill according to Mr. Tusk's task and the law on partnerships (Mrs. Kotula could yet relax), due to the fact that I think that Mr. Marek Sawicki, Władysław Kosiniak-Kamish and another oppositionists from the 3rd Way along with Father Rydzyk and his full Toruń empire would have moved to east Poland. Or would he even decide to emigrate to accompany his organization idol, president Andrzej Duda himself? And then an early presidential election would be announced in Western Poland, which would be very likely to be won by Mr Rafał Trzaskowski. This polyglot will be Western Poland decently represented in the planet and, for example, Donald Trump will not dare patronize him on his shoulder like a limping dog. In Western Poland, no 1 would snore at anyone and throw mud at opponents, discussions would be conducted only on arguments. Mr Dulkiewicz and Adamovich would yet breathe freely.

It would be interesting to see how, in east Poland, on the border with Belarus, the immigrant dam is coping with the PiS-built gap wall, Mr. Mariusz Błaszczak, who has been so fiercely criticizing Donald Tusk's current government. In east Poland, the future presidential elections could be run by Mr Wąsik, Kamiński, Obietek or Kurski, and the citizens of Western Poland would not should be ashamed of being elected to the European Parliament from the list of criminals. Unfortunately, it is what it is. But what the hell, you can dream, even if your dreams are a little... It's insulting, isn't it? EWA from Wrocław

Sawing of State Forests

There is presently a wide media campaign, which aims to inform the public that the level of wood acquisition threatens the sustainability of Polish forests. Although the authors of these reports do not supply concrete data that could paper this phenomenon, our society believed that there was a decline in forestry in our country. The slogan “protecting forests from logging” is medially bearable and utilized in conducting electoral campaigns. Meanwhile, according to the Central Statistical Office, Poland's forestry in 2016 – 2023 increased from 29.5% to 29.7%.

The yearly timber acquisition in the State Forests did not exceed 80% of its yearly growth. The statistic provided indicate that the current usage of wood does not lead to national forest degradation. Nevertheless, the public opinion is convinced that forests in Poland are threatened by excessive logging. Unfortunately, technological cognition and authoritative data on forest management do not scope society. The blame for this situation is mainly on foresters, as education and information programs conducted at all levels of the State Forest units are aimed at a narrow group of forest-related society and are not made available in the nationwide mass media.

Although we are not in danger of deforestation, in many regions of Poland forest management is not carried out properly. For example, thickened moose populations destruct deciduous species in forests and are the main origin of the decline in forest biodiversity. In specified areas, forest management is neither sustainable nor multifunctional, but is of a nature akin to that of robbery. Mr Witold Koss, General manager of State Forests, who blocked investigation related to moose depopulation, is liable for this situation. Disinformation that the current logging acquisition leads to degradation of the forest environment was utilized by environmental activists and activists from the Natural Heritage Foundation.

In direct contact with forest management policies, without giving any substantive justification, they demanded the exclusion of 20% of the national forest area. specified demands were accepted by Minister Paulina Hennig-Kloska and the chief conservationist of the nature of Mr Nicholas Dorozarzę, Polish MPs 2050, and subsequently uncritically accepted by the current government coalition. This has sparked violent social protests in areas where forest management is an crucial origin of livelihood for the local population. During the demonstration against Green Deal, representatives of various forest management professions besides protested, demanding the resignation of Mrs Paulina Hennig-Kloski and Mr Nicholas Dorożala. Therefore, the current rulings have a serious dilemma as to how to resolve this conflict, as promoting restrictions on the usage of forests may overturn the current fragile political table in the subsequent parliamentary elections. In February 2024, the Minister of Climate and Environment established a squad led by Mikołaj Dorożała, whose aim was to make a advice on the principles of forest management.

The team's composition has been dominated by activists and environmental activists from various non-governmental organisations, and these are not qualified to measure forest management activities. No typical from the higher forestry institutions was appointed to the team. The members of the panel were required to sign a confidentiality clause limiting access to the public to decisions issued by the committee. In the following months, administrative restrictions on the usage of forests in over a twelve forests were made without providing any substantive justifications for specified actions. A propaganda run was launched to administratively appoint 100 nature reserves on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the State Forests.

It is hard to realize why in a country where forest universities and the Forest investigation Institute operate, the demands of respective environmental activists and activists who do not have adequate cognition about the functioning of forest management were accepted by the current governing coalition. The current management of the climate and environment department does not have the appropriate competence to manage forest policy and wildlife populations (see discussion in the Parliamentary Committee on Agriculture and agrarian improvement related to the presence of wolves). Therefore, both Mrs Paulina Hennig-Kloska and Mr Nicholas Dorożała and their colleagues should be dismissed urgently. According to erstwhile declarations by Prime Minister Donald Tusk, government ministries are to be directed by competent persons and decisions made by them should be based on substantive and transparent grounds for the public.

Every age has its rights

Being a female is not as fun, easy, and pleasant as it would seem to many men. How mundane and simple at the same time! It's a small old-fashioned, but it's real. Beauty, beauty, attraction – attributes of womanhood. 1 day they will become nothing in the light of passing time. It is he, this moving time, who becomes the executioner for a woman. Beauty passes, fame passes, wellness passes, femininity passes. There is simply a man – specified a “common” human being. Today's technology, medicine, lifestyle offer a chance for the longest possible behaviour of a young biological age regardless of age.

An eighty - year - old woman, utilizing her medical skills, may match a 30 - year - old girl, but a actual age cannot be fooled. Everyone has their end. In early March of that year, the designer Iris Apfel died. And it wouldn't be amazing if it wasn't for the fact that this female in active employment was 103! She didn't hurt anyone, lived as she wanted, as much as she could, as much as she had physical and vital strength. I think she died happy and fulfilled. She was an icon. The biological age and the real age, the evidence, are 2 different issues. I remember erstwhile I was a kid, my dear Aunt was 50, and she was just retiring. I've seen her as an older person, for whom so many have already been, and so fewer before her. Years passed, I grew up, and the retirement age for women extended. 60 years – is that so much? For any centuries, for others, it is only the beginning of life. The country has late heard about the death of “the oldest Polish mother”. That nickname covered her thoroughly. People have forgotten what his name is, what he can do, how he lives. She was only seen as an old mother. Barbara Sienkiewicz – woman, professional actress. It was not meant to be in a large role.

However, she has starred in specified series as “Klan”, “Rancho”, in the movie “Pitbull” and in many others. It was mainly realized as the creator of the Gong children's theatre, where she besides directed performances. Her full life was ambitious, busy, and she didn't decide to be a mom until she was 60. Although medicine allowed her to be mothered, society trampled her for it. A 60-year-old baby! A 60-year-old mother! An egoistic approach to human life. Overcoming others' needs. due to the fact that can a 60-year-old rise children, even to their adulthood? Making guardians for old age? Free. vulnerability of children to school stress, peer stress, related to the real age of their parents. If she has “played God”, she must do the job. Barbara Sienkiewicz is dead. Society sees only “the oldest parent in Poland”. all minute in a woman's life is planned in advance. It's better if you don't interfere. JOANNA HLADIJ YERAKOWI
