must say it is first time I've watched him ;) ...because i was too young then... and my poor family did not have TV yet ; ...thanks in that sense for news and actuality :) as for Bobby, don't know about you, but we all knew him as last survivor (not anymore) and most famous of that Munich airplane c...

Ale

here's something modern again, in mix... some people deal with various subjects and hard subjects as me, some only with light ones and similar... i have "informants" and in today world info travels fast and stay around. last night there was interview on CNN with some Israel mister which some pointed...

Ale

was a good one, really good one in Athens... even if we lost after overtime 98-94 this is what (not so numerous in Europe) EL fans want to see and pay for in "elite" and we delivered, lasted for 2 and 1/2 hours while basket game is 40 mins ; ...signs of life and capability. you go in Athens do have ...

Ale

there was some smaller incident on EC qual match between Serbia & Montenegro on stadium here, almost fight but with police preventing anything... Montenegro fans reacted with making damage and breaking seats, some say in moment when our team took the lead, some say becuse someone stole their flag fr...

Ale

anyhow, little bit. Was reading some Wiki articles (English) on that i.e. "interplanetary dialogue" or seriously inter-schismatics dialogue ) and just few lines for people really not knowing some practical things... I said it, not my subject but what kind of medievalist would i be if unable to under...

Ale

...also - super interesting subject i finish with this but is deep and fun - more to add to any reader that our rulers (with full support of state both nobility and church and without mutiny) did possibly take part in some catholic councils, that some rulers were placed very high (almost persons of ...

Ale

btw, for people in region or wider - guess many know - sainthood of all Nemanide (except the god king) kings was during the medieval era and not some modern decission, XIX, XX c. So dating back to then... other thing, however all churches around the world (or lets concentrate on major in Europe we k...

Ale

...let's say something else here. About church or - from history lover prospective - our church as we are "sui iuris" unlike many in the world with own head of church equal to others etc. And we have own gods, Dusciano being supreme one, then Miluten etc :) Seriously, while i being relatively relaxe...

Ale

here is one story - very shortened as many and with own word - about military tactics on "Balkans" (it was not know like that in times) from Serbo-Byzantine war of 1330s till 1355... it started, as i noted similarly to "hundred years war" i.e. as sudden change to hostilities and our king Dusciano (w...

Ale

nice and short "review" on Space empires V, genuine or inventive but unpatched, unpolished etc. think i mentioned it before, in one of many posts :p victim of growing were in my case 4x games, there are many good and are going out now but those are not type of games to sink in hour-two or like that....

Ale

...or to put it this way - for dumber or not knowing/caring medievals simply - unlike (as i mentioned) for example Jews where there is religious motivation, or some "Judas sin" or why Romans disliked them before mediveal age etc etc. or why our rulers disliked "Bogulmiles, Chatarans what was name" e...

Ale

must say this as well (the end after)) ...if we accept that it is not interesting to all if i talk only our events i.e. figures, i'll dare to explain or touch just some more international subjects i.e. one figure which is not our, but might be realtive ;) so Philip IV. there is that great narrative ...

Ale

obviously - rather important to say - i evolved or "retracted" some opinions and statements from before, maybe slightly towards some "pro-French" stance and tie... in that sense always is more important what is said later i.e. nearer the end in thread than before ) ...when it comes to other part, pr...

Ale

let's add also this - some would say in appropriate moment as region is "in focus" ; (sadly for them) ...must say not so religious (obviously) myself but like history very much and as we talk medieval, my theme, of course i like some stories and things like Jerusalem are "cool" but in relaxed way......

Ale

so for fun, and the end some things and "my wit"... always had - as medievalist - some unusual ideas and solutions often based on med history and solutions... so we had, since century VII, many wars with Bulgars for example, legendary is and still talked about our capture of Boris the great (by Bulg...

Ale

must say this, pardon... relating to own words as i mentioned few times Israel, Gaza i.e. middle east situation - of course non of situation relating Kosovo is not even close to this, nor will hopefully ever be, clear to all ; ...and recent events show why so one joke, our club offered Maccabi to pl...

Ale

last days also (old story i talked it about it few years ago when we also had same place) there was story about (very dubious and without some exact scientific or exact mathematical data to compare or make scores, but interesting nonetheless and maybe close to truth) how we are third in Europe on li...

Ale

...i don't know about you and your places, but we recently decided to go to war, but then after long and wide thinking decided not to go to war as our president said himself... instead we are going in EU as he said :) (sheduled for 2123, just after conquest of Uranus) ...confirmed with Blinken ; any...

Ale

great, great, great... only i care so much i know :p but German language Wikipedia page on Palman - just looked at it today pressuming that it has nothing new after i've "known all" - is together with our, English etc (Bulgar only) every different in some tiny "nuance" and that is great ; what i lik...

Ale

...or brother Kieran rather etc. Kirian would be more Greek meaning like "sir, gentleman"... in our souces maybe Kijeran but don't hold me as true and as not miss again ; letter or two differently guess original would be with -us at the end, just not to missintroduce protagonists ) Austria is (today...

Ale

...and (last in series) i think i said this only on ex-forums so to share, as unimportant idea but great one... generally think our younger (and older) people need some re-education or directions on historical approach and recognizing potentials in some stories. while Kosovo battle (example and just...

Ale

also and he-he (as i remebered my theme) as last on such subjects... when I talked about Gabriele (d'Annunzio) - as he was famous for his guerilla like (or commando) actions post war - man i greately respect for something ; well, to be clear his greatness in my eyes is (as i clearly said, but people...

Ale

also to add - as some sort of "summarums" and conclusions some things as i did in many points :) - those things about Bulgarian and Greek (eventual) readiness to return interesting things to us, like Miluten and maybe even "Archangels" few hundred meters from "Sepultura" in Jerusalem, but stoppage i...

Ale

...to add this while "in mood" and posting around, while mostly finished my subjects... for poeple like Bombast and my subjects during weekend there was one of more serious incidents on Kosovo recently with (didn;t read all detailedly) four dead, some gunfight between Serbs and Albanian police etc. ...

Ale

yes, but German "suckers" (football players, but funny joke, btw soccer is fully legitimate English term not American per se) will be back - with more blacks as we all once :) ...btw, yes again you are right it is more nostalgia than importance as Croats now finish above Germans for example ; - but ...

Ale

welcome, regarding question we are talking some times long past so to say, i came to old forums related to PG2 mods 20 years ago and even then there was no e-files relatable directly to original, for example evolution went on turn of the millenium (and century) already towards so called high cost ef...

Ale

not so much regionally in our case (as Serbia) as we had really all in team sports in one moment and during 90s - strong football, basket, volley, handball, waterpolo etc. teams which all picked medals and were among favs... but basketball was cult for my generation. But subject no much about that i...

Ale

interesting to hear. 10 (as grade) for a post as is known that i like those kind of things about many subjects :yes similar to many others, some dude said that nobody is broadcasting even their games in Canada etc. Also noticed that Spanish state TV is only of big European countries that detailedly ...

Ale

yep it is not football - so old saying by us (Servius)) "basket is sport played by 10 men and Germans always win in the end" to stand :) - but Germany is world champion ; congrats. what to say huge majority of us expected (in unexpected situation) we to win as we made it as far with team nobody favo...

Ale

...one step further, so basket WC semis are Serbia-Canada & Germany-USA. One would say two most powerful/important European countries and 2 NAmerican, in any way "trans-Atlantic" 1/2 finals, also no place for small countries there only powers ; at least 3 somehow logically belong among last 4, for i...

Ale

watched female volleyball EC final, with one eye not some fan of fem sport which should be aimed at that sex above all ; ...Turkey won against Serbia in 5 seter and that is first gold for them in history - which is surprise for me as i thought volleyball is outlawed in Turkey for being too sexy :) I...

Ale

today - just catched it, well recently until i prepared my subject ;) - my style of historical subject it is for me "like ace on ten" on some card game... rarelly play cards, must say, but did for fun in late 90s and early 2000s, but some other games, not that one :) changed chanels, not staying any...

Ale

really is strange, i called Italy (esp in basket) our kryptonite few years ago, and again they win 78-76 in game we had as much as +16, becomes tradition and complex as i "sniffed" ; generally strange day - Italy's win is more routine not "strange" - and as someone said we fall in same "trap" 3-4 ti...

Ale

well, after all no...; it is early to say but almost safe to say that 1/4 finals rival would be either USA or Lithuania, if both Italy and Dominicana do not beat us, of course ) Greeks look weaker, but are enigma maybe them... in any way better USA than Canada, better Lithuania than Latvia etc :) we...

Ale

btw, if i never said - and i said many things :p - this tune is one of my life melodies, part of me and have it as ring tone/tune for years on various phones ; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nJcdI1CyoBI ...or NY version, various versions but always same... so when there is incoming call, always tha...

Ale

what to say. one always likes when one is right... as i've said Latvia did beat France 88-86 and kicked French out of tournament early, after two games. not to sound like expert, but :) interesting day 3 on WC, few surprises already etc. Italy also lost to Dominicana, nice derby between Australia an...

Ale

so basket WC started today, haven't watched games just rewind TV program to see details and looked at scores etc. All expected results and "handicaped vics" and even one derby today... no not Canada-France :) (Canada massacred French) but Dominican rep. vs Filippines ; did not know Clarckson is play...

Ale

oho-ho... 5-0 for guys from Valhalla, even humiliation in unexpected magnitude, so we really suck... guess they fit well in our "total anti-football" philosophy... flicking first club from EE to reach "CL final" with Real etc. :) no videos, better watch "Texas massacre" ..... :) until, next subject,...

Ale

while i'm preparing to see football section match against Danish club Nordsjelland reading some sport flash news and... UEFA again punished Partiman with 70000 euros and closing of part of the stadium for racism (things like using name Gipsy for other club fans, almost usual, not blacks etc) for dis...

Ale

...when it comes to foreigners, people from Rosnaja are really everywhere and not a single day passes me not to hear Russian (often Chinese as well)... i know they are only temporarily here, until their country Russia democraticize (forever then)) but really many... was young in 1919/20 so not remem...

Ale

...but it is interesting, simply i'm kind of person who feels that itch and would like to get some answers he will never get, impossible to add also becuse it is closely related to subject or subjects better said, was reading some page (English somehow most intersting for me) on that "Francophonie" ...

Ale

generally is interesting subject, like many we had in pub... not to be some pro or anti Italian bias accusation by me (principessa), i will add, really for end, map of German distribution around the world (sadly cut some parts as i focus on us, but of course whole maps are there)... not so interesti...

Ale

pardon, light green is 10000+ (mistyped one zero) or "precisely" anything between 10k and 100k as next shade of green is 100000+ so how much many hard to say, huge variation, can be 99999 but not in our case :) in any way unexpected, it is important to correct my typo, significant number then, enoug...

Ale

Defeating is fact, sobering, interesting, call it as you wish that we are not among 55 (!) top nations visiting Italy by pre-pandemic data (but doubt it changed, if true inittially, don't see why not)... Seen that also in some data, but not on Italian TV :) interenet. Virtually every European countr...

Ale

today, very nice subject but informative and fun, but generally last from me... all nice talking points and welcome to correct me... must say first, not some fan of tourism myslef nor look at it as very important (but it is despite my looks) and, at the end it has 2 main bad consequences a) leading ...

Ale

btw, old papers and mainly funny headlines is also one hobby of unfrequent type, had some collection etc as well as rare historical photos, of non-combat type. But won't share that much, tried few times with photos but gave that up, due to lack of interest ; (and will not try with nudes or selfies)....

Ale

...this all reminds me of one event - i'd like to finish with it - now looks like anecdote but it is true, must say not sure if i ever mentioned it here but like to remember it... IDK, 15 maybe more years ago, was stopped during one murky day, half rainy, by group of younger people on our fortress r...

Ale

...things to be worse they described "Mihail Tereshchenko" (haha) as "entrepreneur, banker, art collectioner and mecena"

...it is disgusting and now you have translated text adding to laugh and their indoctrination ; ...join always, like this very much

Ale

i hope this is PC, it is very funny, to relax situation a bit.... as i said, people do not be scared by angry dude on top and symbolism - we are funny forum and open to views and opinion exchange ; ...when it comes to joke in concrete in your region (with which we have nothing to do, but i admit we ...

Ale

let's add also this, totally modern subjects, guess people like it more than subjects i like... sadly for them, but no modern structure is, for example, exciting to me like good medieval attraction a la Carcassonne, no modern battle/war as exciting as black knights in action or Alemaniacs fighting f...
