So the Milka chocolate is different in Germany than in here. Is it the blame of the Hungarian government?

I don't know about the ingredients of Milka chocolate...but here's an example: drinks like "Fanta Orange" or similar

- in Italy there is a regulation which makes it illegal to sell them if they contain less than 12% of orange juice...it will be 20% by 2018.

- in Austria they sell the same drink with same name but with only 6% orange juice

- in other countries they can sell by law the same drink with 0% juice and more chemichal additives, meaning that it's of less quality.

Your government is free to approve a regulation like ours. 

I'm sure you can find something similar about the quality of chocolate.

They made a lot of regulations. For example the bakers had to change their recipes (salt). But who can check it? Is it always true what is on the package as ingredients?

It's like the Maldives sent their flag to rape the Mauritania flag in Chernobyl, leading to this horror of an alien-baby-flag. 

 

Sadly, I have a feeling the Mauritanians will not be encouraged to vote against this...

Yes he is :) that's why the news are so surprising and awesome :d However, since a few months he visibly fights to become independent, he already blocked one of their bills (but it wasn't that important) and openly cricitized  some aspect of the government.

I never thought I would join to talk about politics on sport forum and especially here, but sadly that moment has come. Can I please you for stop posting on public wall (If you like it you always can send PM to these users with which you want talk) shitty things about our politics? It's sport forum and I thought that totallympics atm is only one place in the internet where I will not saw any opinions/posts/news about current government, supporters of opposition party which behaviours worse than childs in sandpits (I mean here those people on the streets which lie down and shoeing for a metal fence). Where you really see the problem on those changes? It's normal that leading party want have full control on some spaces, it's in many countries on whole world and there no one don't hysterical. Despite everything PIS still have almost 20% more in polls than PO and Nowoczesna. Politicans from those two parties still can't stand with this that they lost elections, lost all their lovely moneys and everything around and now behaviour as idiots. I'm not sure if you know but how ironic is it that "former" communist politicans screams on all those nonsene protests that they don't want "back to communism", but we will back to communism if they will ruled again, just look how many scandals PO had in those 8 years, tell me what they did good in that time? They closed half of Polish factories, shut down all shipyards, closed the FSO car factory, introduced foreign capital to the market, destroying Polish manufacturers in that way, not saying that they want accept  and take many dangerous refugees to Poland. You see what is happening in UK, Germany, France and Belgium by this, you really want this here too? In addition, they shout that Kaczyński loves Putin and wants makes second Belarus here, such screams are scandalous, you really like it? Since PIS rule in the country my life is better, don't know how is with yours. Ah, and I almost forgot, PO government sells E.Wedel, one of the oldest Polish companies, now owners is an company from... Japan, everything under PO was ok, right? 

Thank you reading this and I hope that you will not post here anymore shitty things about our politics here, it's useless.

And if someone want to see this, it are PO and Nowoczesna supporters, or if someone prefer people which are against PIS (which they choosed :) few months ago)

    • I'll post significant changes periodically. I'll start with the recently added/updated documents.   Archery The addition of mixed compound (12M & 12W) forced a reduction on the recurve side. The mixed compound quotas are distributed as follows   Host - 1 World Championships - 3 Continental Games - 5 World Ranking List - 2 Final Qualifier - 1   To compensate the team events will now only have 8 nations. 2 quotas were removed from the World Ranking List and 2 were removed from the Final Qualifier.   Individual recurve and mixed recurve distribution is the same
    • In Rome, it would be useful to roof the swimming pool complex at Foro Italico, possibly with the option of retracting the roof and covering the tennis court complex. Overall, there's a lot to do, for example, compared to Budapest, but unfortunately, this is Italy How many years has Roma been building their new stadium, and they keep pushing back the completion date- now I read it's 2030? and it should be ready. The same goes for Milan- there should be a modern complex of indoor swimming pools with 50 meters pools, etc., but there's a problem with one stupid football stadium, which will only be built after an ultimatum from UEFA

    • impossible, there are not enough venues in both towns and I mean, Milan doesn't have an Olympic Stadium, a decent Tennis Complex and a big Swimming Complex (not to mention the sea) Rome, on the other hand, doesn't have a Rowing/Canoeing Basin nor arenas and stadiums for the team sports beyond football and rugby there's no chance that all those venues would be built from scratch, meanwhile if we use both cities we already have almost everything we need, especially the most expensive and controversial sites

    • https://nypost.com/2026/01/31/sports/team-canada-skeleton-coach-joe-cecchini-speaks-out-after-american-katie-uhlaender-manipulation-claim/   Oh the drama....   Cecchini: “I don’t really wanna speak negatively about Katie, but Katie was not on the World Cup team. She wasn’t a top-tier athlete in that program anymore. She was at the end of her career. I would personally would rather race against Katie. She’s not as competitive as the other athletes,” he said. “It’s probably really unfair to say and not really where I want to go with this but that’s where we are with that.”   Uhlaender: “If I were Canada, I would be concerned in how this coach is representing the Olympic values for his country,” Uhlaender told Fox News Digital. “He hurt a whole field of athletes, all with dreams, and this sends the message that they don’t matter unless they are number one. All athletes matter, and we all deserve to compete fairly, with integrity, and respect. He did not respect anyone in that field. “This is not about my resume or how good the athletes were in the race. This is about the fact that he intentionally manipulated the competition to hurt myself and 13 other countries because he felt it necessary to eliminate all possibility. That is against the spirit of sport and not what the Olympic movement represents.”   Isn't it great when other people's dirty laundry is aired?  /sarcasm     (I was a little surprised to see NPR pick this up, but per this article, Uhlaender preemptively recorded the phone call after receiving a text from Cecchini that said he had 'bad news' for her.)
