Serbia warned about football hooliganism:

I read this on Al Jazeera and do not have a means of supplying the
actual link. The president of UEFA met with Boris Tadić and let him
know that the flare throwing and beat-downs staged by the 'ultras'
would not be tolerated. Serbia's main teams have dine badly in
international competition and the hooligans have only made it worse. I
think it would be better to have a seperate sport of hooliganism and
simply cordon off an area where the hooligans could do their thing.
People could pay for tickets, there could be matches between the
'best' groups of hooligans. With any luck they'd kill each other off
in time.

An update:

Here in the Yakima Gulag, aka Yakghanistan, aka YakaVegas aka The Palm
Springs of Washington it has been Hella windy! I was nearly blown
away going to a craft show by bus and I am not all that light.
I am awake at this unGodly hour because I fell asleep early and slept
hard until now.
Some of my neighbors had a very loud discussion... Loud enough that I
wondered if I ought to call the police.
It ended, or at least got less noisy about when I was ready to call.

So today's links:

This guy was just full of charm.... NOT!!!

Karadžić gets a continuance in his trial to read prosecution supplied

This same link has other news of interest.

Finding the dead is not an easy job:

http://www.trust.org/alertnet/news/war-of-words-over-missing-bosnian-serbs

RS people are saying that the agency which is supposed to find the
dead of the war isn't finding enough Serbian war dead.
Given that Bosnians of all three major ethnic groups lost their lives
in the war and that Bosnians of all three major ethnic groups work to
find and identify the dead, I think it is another RS ploy toward
statehood.

And like this isn't going to start all kinds of Mess-O-Rama?


http://www.dw-world.de/dw/article/0,,14854040,00.html

I think everyone is going to be mad at each other over this.

Pensions for war veterans in Bosnia have never been adequate. These
sorts of demonstrations are a regular part of life in Bosnia:

Dodik again:

http://www.google.com/hostednews/canadianpress/article/ALeqM5gAQMCViZ1EgvmgMeEga3Qp6QljjQ?docId=5932371

Dodik basically wants to hang on to his power and ill-gotten wealth. I
think EU membership for BiH is bad for economic reasons, but I don't
think Dodik has the right to block membership for his reasons.

While I have misgivings about EU membership for BiH, it's not entirely
a Bad Thing. Especially if Dodik doesn't like it.

Yakighanistan!

No seriously, we have an invocation, so far as I know NEVER led by a
non-Christian prior to all City Council meetings, for a great many
years. I wish someone who belongs to abtruely rare and unusually faith
would go lead the invocation. I think it would be fun to see the looks
on all their prissy faces.
