I really like this Unity and i don`t really know what is NATO about. Their inner economy does very good, according to some forecasts its EURO is going to die away in few years, but I don`t believe it. Ukrain - no matter how poor it is, still makes a lot of money charging Russia`s gas pippes (for having it through its teretory) and buying electrisity half-prize. BUt the point is Russia could not rise prizes according to that charge, becouse of this unity. And Russia is not even in! Euro still does well 1 Euro = 1.3523 U.S. dollars. What do they own? Some silwer and copper, they have accessto oceans, which is no matter what is good. It is good to unites with some countries, becouse together power is bigger, but they have to sacrifies as well: independense in some way, politic views and decisions have to cooperate with others. Most of them are socialists countries, so they are very close in views.
I do not believe in one country or one unity, even on democratic conditions. One will always desire to rul ver entire world. It never did any good, it cost wold too much.

President Obama.
President Obama. First time when I heard about him it was an election tie between him and others. I was glad when he won, becouse he is more socialist i guess. Some friends of mine watched politics news really close, this way they involved me. Facing the truth of the past, like slavery past and selecting as a president african american is a step forward from this past. For me it was a sign of democrasy. The choose between first african american president and first women president that was made in USA made me wonder was it just attemt to prove democratic and racism-free state. What if there was Sarah Palin AND Mrs. Obama electual tie. Who would win? Still why the man has civil rights before woman does. A few years passed there is Medicare reforms, which is not perfect but it always good to make at least an attempt.

A Letter to the Mock Trial Team
Dan, as President of the Larimer County Bar Association, I want to thank you and your students for again making the trip to the Northern Regional High School Mock Trial Competition. The Regional Competition is co-sponsored by the Weld and Larimer County Bar Associations, one of the few events these two neighboring Bars sponsor together each year. Your support for the program is essential to its continuing success. Your students have the distinction of being the only school outside of Fort Collins to regularly participate in this event, even though it is open to all of the schools in the region (including Greeley, Windsor, Loveland, Berthoud, Sterling, etc.). As such, your students stand out as dedicated, energetic and consistent supporters of this program. You travel the farthest, spend the most on lodging, and make the most sacrifices, when considering the distance you travel each year. This dedication is not lost on the Competition sponsors. We thank you for taking your entire weekend to join us for the competition, and we are grateful for the chance to know Fleming's finest. High School Mock Trial is unique. It recognizes students for their brains and their mouths, as opposed to their speed on the football field. The kids you bring to this competition are the best and the brightest your community has to offer. As a coach, I see this every time I attend a Mock Trial event - - these are our future leaders, spokespersons and advocates. Your encouragement stands as a testament to the important role the law plays in our society. These students understand how the law works, as opposed to how television portrays how the law works. This experience is by far the best way for Fleming's youth to understand a complex system that weaves through all human pursuits in some way or another. Please let this serve as my personal invitation that you continue to bring your students to the Regional Competition. They get better every year. They are more professional every year. They bring great pride to your community every year. I hope to see you next February. Ian D.

ssi class login
I was just thinking that we should get 1 login for everyone in SSI to use. That way we could save the pictures and words and everything on it, and if some one is gone, then everyone in his/her group can still have access to it. We could have the same login and password for the computer as this one. Does anyone get what I am thinking? KK
