Good morning!
I hope that everybody is great! I am! It is a dark morning here but we are getting ready for a great day!
I wonder- what have people been thinking about since Ohrid? Has your thinking about anything changed? Do you look at people from different groups in a new way?
Also- how are your studies going? I am teaching this semester and so far I have only the best students.

Hello!
How are all.
I too have been active…. New classes, new groups, new opportunities!
I will present at a conference here in Riga in December, and start some new teaching with a big IT company. We also had a great event to introduce our dyslexia booklet and we are busy writing our final report for the dyslexia project. Look at http://www.disleksija.lv
I don’t believe that a woman lacks logical thinking! My wife always outhinks me!
.
How are classes for everybody?
How many of you will be back in Macedonia for the December exchange? Unfortunately I will be a bit to busy (good thing and bad). Nora’s sister might go.

Hi Tom,
It’s really nice being so active cuz don’t have time to get bored
Well, math is really killing me now but exept that everything else is going more then fine.
We’ve pretty bussy preparing our project proposal and chosing the group that is going to Krushevo/Macedonia this december.
Unfortunately the group from Albania will not be the same as the last exchange cuz we want to give this great opportunity to the other members of our network.
Well, that’s all for now!
Have fun people, and c u

Olsi!
Great to hear your news. I noticed an Albanian visitor to our web site. Was that you?
Our group is working on proposals for next time.
Unfortunately, I will not be with our group in December. We might be sending only two people- one is Baiba’s sister.
Keep in touch.

hi to all, these are the replies that Iarina and Simon gave to Tom’s topic:
Iarina-
I think I am going to cause a fight, but this is my opinion: this was actually the inevitable end. As you know, Romania has a problem with its minorities that live in Transilvania (the Hungarians), but I don’t think that this can result in a war, or Kosovo will be seen as a precedent case. I think that there are other international powerful actors that sort of control these actions, so we are mere puppets in their hands. Now the United States, sorry Tom, but I am not really a fan of the USA foreign policy, has a military state in the very heart of Eastern Europe. Hmmm, the major question is: will the EU support the new born state? And how? If I may, in Romania everybody is freaked out by this situation, it’s a kind of state of urgency because we have this party UDMR, which is a supporter of the minority, of the Hungarians and they want to call this precedent to affirm the independence of Transilvania. this is very controversial, but they don’t have a majority of people living there, so, I think that this conflict will fade away. Something else: the EU has as a fundamental value, integrity and I really do not understand why the majority of states were for the independence of Kosovo. That is all. I am looking forward for replies or thoughts about this subject.
Tom-
Irina,
Generally I agree with what you say about American foreign policy, but I think that, while the USA has recognized Kosovo, they are not really happy about the outcome. USA was hoping that “final status” talks would resume and that some other arrangement would happen. We are quite busy in other places!
As for the EU- thus far Brussels has said that it is up to the separate countries to decide whether to recognize. EU itself will not make a decision. Latvia has already recognized. Brussels also said that “Kosovo is a special case” and should not be used as a precedent for other independence movements. Specifically, they worry about Romania and Spain (Basque).
Good to hear from you? How are your studies?
Simon-
Hi all of my friends
I am in Skopje 50 km south of Kissoff border and everything is fine, like in normal life day, mediums usually can do more than a real situation but they mus to do a profit
For independence of Kissoff i will say I DON CARE JUST TO BE A PEACE
it sound funny for me… Didi you now the mining???
silly !!!
Macedonia like country has no any power to do something and we are in situation to see what is going to ha pen and what EU & USA & RUSSIA agree to do with this kind of land
I find out that from thees days there is new word in worlds dictionary
it is VULCANIZATION
it means Separeting one object or land in smiler parts witch are always in fights
at the moment i am on one T.C. and Macedonians are more occupied with situation around NATO and name solution with GREECE
for any more information from Balkan, write to me will try to answer
all the best & regards, Simon
Tom-
Hello Simon!
I think of you every morning when I do the Funky Chicken!!
Thanks for your thoughts. I too simply want peace.
The word is “Balkanization” and it is an old one. It came about after World War the First when so much of your area of the world was divided into small pieces.
For anyone who is interested- the American value is one of self-determination. Since Woodrow Wilson at the end of WWI, we have believed that people should have power over what state they are a part of and have supported independence movements. On the other hand many people also see that it can be dangerous to fragment states. How to reconcile it? I am not sure, but I do believe that most people in power only want to keep power and make it greater and that war only serves those in power, never those who fight it. “What if they gave a war and nobody came?”
