Another attack... this time in Turku, Finland.


I wonder when Europe will decide enough is enough of this and actually implement steps to preventing it.

The leaders of the EU have no time for it. They're working on the punishment of the V4 because we refused the migrant quota...

Also rather hard is that killings, including stabbings, happen quite often. In these days though, every single smaller 'thing' becomes big news whereas a few years ago nobody would have given two fucks about someone in Finland or the Netherlands or Germany being stabbed in a random place.

That's true (  few years ago in Poland some crazy idiot tried to run over people in Sopot and I don't remember any major outlets actually reporting that) however I think the reason why people talk about the incident in Finland is because of the terrorist acts in Spain.

My favourite Volleyball position: LIBERO. You ask why? Look here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZyIOarNAONk

Exactly. It's sort of what you see on a 'terror night' like in London a while back: every fart is suddenly being brought onto Twitter and everything as 'explosion reported'. Now that might be true if someone had a particularly bad dinner, but most of the times the extra reports in such a night are nothing out of what you might ordinarily see in any given night. 

 

With which I don't mean to say there's no problem, obviously, there definitely is and it's not getting any better at all.

For sure, Visegrad is the shame of Europe :d

Btw, in Dusseldorf is a common criminality

Do you mean EU? Yes, we are scapegoats!

But your politicians also fed up by the migrants. And Austria is fed up with your policy. Hypocrites are everywhere!

    • Unfortunate, but it doesn't change the fact that I'm looking forward to Thursday evening, when the team captain's meeting is over and we have our very first World Cup start list of the season. Always a cool moment to see who's there and everything  
    • Today I unpacked some of the boxes in which we have put my way too many books to move to our house, and I came across these beauty's I hadn't seen for a while     Absolutely recommended, tough to get for a decent price, but they are such an interesting read with lots of very interesting little stories! Still looking for at least 1900, 1904 and 1906, but not really in the right moment to spend money on that now, so the wait goes on  
    • Which I guess is part of why unfortunately 'our' first wild card attempt of the season was rejected last week  
    • The next chapter in the Krasnobaeva saga is upon us.   Looks like  Armenia have cut ties with her after only a few weeks. A person from their Federation has said, that they won't continue the relationship, because of her unprofessional and rude attitude towards the coaches and other officials. That includes: - having no respect to the coaches and their advise; - training without any motivation; - stops doing the routine and throws objects without any reason; - just lays on the floor and ignores the music.   When this was escalated with her mother, she mentioned that "Elvira has a strong temper and she was the same in Bulgaria and they tolerated her". Which of course is complete BS. If anyone attempted this shit here, they would be thrown out immediately.   And now  are wanting from her mother to return all finances they gave them, which she is refusing, so they will probably sue them. They will also inform other RG Federations about this situation, so they don't hire them.   My 2 cents on this is most likely Krasnobaeva was happy in BG and was forced out by her mother, so now she is sabotaging the move and be done with it.
    • Honestly Ruka is my favourite World Cup event of the whole season. Everybody is there. Later on there is always someone who skips one weekend or another . Not everybody takes part in Tour de ski. But here everyone shows up.
