EU: free elections in Belarus this year’s campaign

EU praises a free presidential election campaign in Belarus in 2010. This statement was made by a member of the Bundestag, Chief of Staff of the German Chancellery and Federal Minister for Special Affairs Ronald Pofalla in Minsk on November 4, BelTA learned.

“We see that the situation has improved in Belarus. The restrictions that existed before, particularly in the collection of signatures for candidates, they have raised,” said Ronald Pofalla.

Ronald Pofalla said free and honest elections certain rules, as there are no obstacles for the registration of presidential candidates, the balanced composition of election commissions, and access to international observers. He also said it will monitor the conduct of the election campaign. In his view, the current political climate is a different form of the previous year.

As for the possibility of presenting a single opposition candidate in the 2010 election, Ronald Pofalla, said he did not give any recommendations of such potential presidential candidates representing of the opposition. In his view, the participation of several opposition candidates is a manifestation of pluralism.

Other than that, Ronald Pofalla spoke about the death penalty in Belarus. He believes it is a major obstacle to rapprochement between Belarus and the EU. . “The greatest obstacle to closer cooperation is the retention of the death penalty in Belarus is unacceptable This is a core value of the Council of Europe. And the absence of the death penalty is essential for a state governed by the rule law, “Ronald Pofalla said.

The June 12 presidential election Nigeria held in 1993 will precisely go down in the world as the election with results coming after 15 years going by the declaration of the umpire, Prof Humphrey Nwosu fifteen years after the presidential elections were held. The election would go down in history as that which one of the candidates also deemed the acclaimed winner lost his life fighting to claim his mandate even in a mysterious circumstance.   Not only that, the election also will be found on the pages of Guinness Book of Records as the election which saw a High Court located in the capital of the country sitting in the midnight just to see to the annulment of the election in yet a mysterious circumstance.

 

This particular election could also go down in the history of the country as the freest and fairest election ever held in Nigeria, and election that forced the then military president and Commander in Chief of Armed Forces to compulsorily step aside. This is June 12 election an election that observes a public holiday in Nigeria, which today is the most well loved election in the country today.

 

In Nigeria, today “June 12” unarguably means, “that which is a forgotten issue” among the youths. “June 12” means different things to different people in this country but for Prof Humphrey Nwosu it meant a time to perhaps clear the name of his mentor, Ibrahim Babangida or saw I perceive it.

 

 

What is further surprising to all those who also took fifteen years to await the declaration of the winner of that presidential result is why it took the NEC chairman, Prof Humphrey Nwosu fifteen years to announce the winner of that election in the person of Chief M. K. O. Abiola (now Late) or can a dead man ever claim his mandate?  But of more astonishing is the exoneration of the then Military President 

 

Hear him:

 

“The greatest support and strength I received was from the President (Babangida). He exhibited the strongest political will and provided adequate financial and moral support that sustained me throughout my tenure as chairman of NEC,” With this development, one is bound to see some complicity in all of it.

 

How can Humphrey Nwosu convince a rationale human being that a president, like Ibrahim Babangida with complete maximum power allowed had all of these happen behind him? It is even more despicable to reason that a president who bore, owned and nurtured the then two political parties would go to sleep and allow the election to die, after instructing the same Humphrey Nwosu to stop announcing the results and who consequently go ahead to declare the annulment of the election, with fearful, and threatening attitude which denied the perceived winner the opportunity to claim his mandate. This is even worse when we remember that the same president was to hand over to another Yoruba man who was to step aside in yet another circumstances not known to Nigerians. We hope that the then interim president will one day come out to tell us how it happened maybe after writing his own book.

 

Humphrey Nwosu would heap all the blames on people of Northern extraction except perhaps Clement Akpamgbo. Is he telling us that no one Yoruba or people from other regions of the country were involved? Even a baby a child in 1993 would have patiently listened to unfortunate comments coming from people at that time. If this child were to gather these comments and conduct his research, such a child would positively arrive at a result better than what Nwosu has told us and expects us to believe. In Nwosu declaration of how everything went, nothing was heard of M. K. O. Abiola’s running mate who was to later accept a position in the new government, which replaced the said winner while he was languishing in jail.

 

In the ceremony to unveil the Book which he (Nwosu) published virtually all the key actors in the nations’s political scene during and after the annulled election were slated for one position or the position, including Ibrahim Babangida, the key player as the guest of honour; Chief Ernest Shonekan, slated to chair the event and Gen Theophilus Danjuma (Rtd) billed to be the Chief launcher. Only Babangida would send a representative in the person of Brig. Gen. Halilu Akilu (Rtd. ) another key player fingered by Nwosu himself. One wonders what the Prof was seeking to achieve.

 

Two arrowheads named by Prof Humphrey Nwosu as those behind the infamous annulment have but defended themselves in separate reactions, exonerating themselves. I may but call on those who know to please come up with their accounts of what happened

Y SYSTEM HORSE RACING-2-O

 

If we eliminate the very vital areas where the slightest touch of another horse can not place a young animal with a career winning percentage is even higher.

If we remove the beginning of the season, including two years are still largely unknown-entity, and the end of the season, while most of two years are “above”, the winning percentage is even higher stilts.

So how can we use this established fact, the statistics?

 

2-YO system gives you the opportunity, which, if operated on a regular basis and within the guidelines, it will generate a steady stream of business for you.

 

To operate a successful 2-Y-0 SYSTEM you: The need for the Racing Post forecast paris on a regular daily newspaper is not accurate enough for our needs. All examples, tests and statistics have been generated through the use of the above documents.

 

Method of selection.

1. Look through the cards the day of the race, all races and select 2-yo.

2. Remove all races disability.

3. Remove all races with more than 10 riders.

4. Remove all races with less than 5 runners.

5. To use the system 2-YO-us, you must select only two rounds of the race we have left.

 

To do this, simply select the two most valuable races.

These are the two that I use with 2-SYSTEM.

 

FORMULA

Round 1 + 1 first race favorite FAVORITE WEATHER FORECAST 2 – 3PT DUAL.

 

1st race 1 race 2 + FAVORITE WEATHER FORECAST second favorite – DOUBLE 2PT.

 

The second favorite breed FORECAST + 1st Round 2 forecast favorites – DOUBLE 2PT.

Round 1 1 2 + Forecast favorite breed 3rd PREDICTION OF HEART – DOUBLE LPT.

 

3rd Round 1 1st + FAVORITE WEATHER FORECAST favorite race 2 – DOUBLE 1PT.

 

The formula is designed so that if a benefit is virtually certain that the results, assuming of course that the winner comes from the top three in predictions of paris, but we know that is the case for more than 80% all the races we use.

 

Then a series of typical paris discounted prices. _ Take a few minutes to solve a few examples for you and you will see that whatever the formula had forced the horses, using the system 2-I would nearly certainly have shown a profit.

Since 1940 there have been only four negative election years, when the market was down at the end of the year, with the average decline of only 5. 2%.

The most recent was 2000, when the Dow Jones fell 13. Fixed 2% mid-year, but it rose again to close in June 2% for the year (even if, as it turned out, was the first year of the severe bear market of 2000-2002).

So this year the choice has been unusual so far.

The Dow Jones has already 6. 5% below its peak last October when she started this year. She then dropped another 11. 5% since the beginning of the year for its correction low in early March. At that time, was 19% below its peak last October, very close to the definition of a bear market (down 20%).

A rally started in the state in which the medium-term oversold low in March. But at least for the moment seems to be completed in early May The Dow is down 6. 5% over the last six weeks, and 14% from its peak of last October, many analysts predict it is on its way down to at least retest its lowest in March.

So what’s the huge difference in this election year?

I reckon it all boils down to this.

In nearly all cases of four-year presidential cycle since at least 1918, the economic downturn, severe market corrections and bear markets have occurred in the first two years of each presidential term, while Washington has ignored the economy and permit the correction of excesses to take place.

Then as if by magic, the approach of Washington to turn to the economy in the second and third year of each period. All stops will be removed in the way of low interest rates, increased government spending, and everything he needed recovery efforts to ensure that the economy was strong at the time of the year next election came.

This has been the norm, whatever the ruling party, and is the basis of highly coherent presidential cycle of four years.

Of course, it was so in the first administration of President George W. Bush, with the 2000-2002 bear market in the first two years of operation, the recovery plot largest ever to come out of Washington in 2002 and 2003, with a lot of time at the end of the bear market and the economy and stock markets in time for the 2004 election campaign.

But, this has not been the case in this presidential cycle four years.

There was not even 10% “return” on the market in 2005 and 2006, let alone a normal market correction. And despite the bursting of the housing bubble in 2006, slowing economic growth, and the banking system close to collapse last year, there was no incentive to provide initiatives to support the economy until this year, election year.

Here we are in a weird election year, when instead of being super strong, the economy is slowing dramatically, and perhaps even recession in the months if not already done so. (The Fed forecasts economic growth for this year of only 0. 3% to 1. 2% for the year, below its already lackluster forecast. 1 3% 2. 0% to just a couple of months.)

Instead of being optimistic and enthusiastic, as often happens during periods of economic election years, consumers and levels of business confidence are at least several years of pessimism. For example, the University of Michigan / Reuters Consumer Sentiment Index published yesterday morning, fell to only 56. June 7, 1959. May 8, and less than 96. 9 months ago sixteen. reading this month is a minimum of 28 years.

So while election years tend to be positive for the stock market, the risk of a serious correction this year can hardly be denied simply because it is an election year. This is an election year more and more different from the economy and the market.

The June 12 presidential elections in Nigeria, held in 1993 will remain in the world precisely as election results come after 15 years is the statement of the referee, fifteen years Professor Humphrey Nwosu conducted after the presidential elections. The election in history as one of the candidates also discussed the acclaimed winner lost his life fighting to get his mandate, even under mysterious circumstances. Not only that, the election will also be found in the pages of the Guinness Book of Records as the election that saw a High Court in the capital is at midnight to see the cancellation of the election in any circumstances even mysterious.

 

This special election can also go to the country’s history that more free and honest election to be held in Nigeria, and the election that forced the then president and military commander of the armed forces must take an side. It’s June 12 elections in an election observing a public holiday in Nigeria, is now the choice of the country today the most well loved.

 

In Nigeria, “June 12″ without a doubt the media, “which is a forgotten issue” among young people. “June 12″ means different things to different people in this country, but for Professor Humphrey Nwosu clearly means a moment of perhaps the name of his mentor, Ibrahim Babangida and saw I perceive it.

 

 

What is more surprising to those who also took five years pending the declaration of the winner of the presidential result is why it took the president of NEC, Professor Humphrey Nwosu fifteen years to announce the winner of this election person of Chief MKO Abiola (deceased), or a dead man can never recover its mandate? But more surprising is the exemption of the President’s military era

 

Listen:

 

“The greatest support and strength I received was from the president (Babangida). He clarified the increased political will and provided financial and moral support has sustained me throughout my tenure as president of NEC, “With this development, we are forced to see the complicity in this area.

 

How convincing justification Humphrey Nwosu human being a president, Ibrahim Babangida, supplemented by a maximum allowed was all these happen after him? It is even more despicable because as a president who had owned and maintained the two political parties then went to sleep and leave the choice to die, after asking them to leave Humphrey Nwosu to announce the results and so that go ahead to declare the annulment of the election, the dread and the threatening attitude which denied the winner receives the opportunity to claim his mandate. It’s even worse if one considers that the president himself was to go to another Yoruba man to retire is not otherwise known to Nigerians. We hope the President will then draft one day to tell us how it happened, perhaps after writing his own book.

 

Humphrey Nwosu is attributed to all the piles of people of the North, except perhaps Clement Akpamgbo. Are you saying that neither one nor the Yoruba people of other regions were involved? Even a baby to a child in 1993 would have patiently listened to comments from miserable people who at that time. If this child was to gather feedback and conduct its investigation as a child in a positive way to achieve a better result than we Nwosu said, and expects us to believe. The Declaration Nwosu how everything has gone, nothing more was heard of MKO Abiola companion who would later accept a position in the new government, replacing the winner said as he languished in prison.

 

At the ceremony to publicize the book he (Nwosu) released nearly all the major actors in the scene of nations in political life during and after the annulled election, have been appointed to a post or position, such as Ibrahim Babangida, the key player as the guest of honor, Chief Ernest Shonekan, under the presidency of Gen. Theophilus Danjuma and event (RTD) charged to the pitcher in chief. Babangida only send one representative in the person of Brigadier General. Halilu Akilu General (Retired), another key player fingers Nwosu himself. One wonders what the teacher was trying to achieve.

 

Two arrowheads appointed by Professor Humphrey Nwosu that those behind the infamous cancellation, but, have argued in separate reactions, drain. But, I can call who know who come with their tales of what happened

Villa rentals are becoming a growing phenomenon in most European destinations owing to the huge inventory of stunning cottages and holiday homes on offer for a rock bottom price.   As hotels continue to offer discounts to attract customers, families in particular are finding villa rentals a more cost effective option, primarily due to self catering facilities and the sheer space which cannot be found in most hotel rooms.   In fact families are finding villas placed in some of the Algarve’s most prestigious resorts are cheaper than staying in a hotel in that same resort.

The Algarve is one destination that has seen rapid growth in the development of villa and apartment complexes.   Golf resorts in particular have gained special licensing attention and the investment by established developers such as Oceânico has added bespoke quality to the Algarve holiday rental market and attracted holidaymakers from far flung corners of the earh.

The birth of the well loved auto, the Renault, was marked by the primary contribution of one single individual – Louis Renault. On Christmas Eve in 1898, Louis Renault who had a passion for mechanics drove his new car, which was a De Dion-Bouon cycle converted with a universal jointed propeller shaft with three gear speeds. His friends and brother made fun of his invention when he parked it outside.

Taking up the challenge, Louis Renault drove his “Voiturette,” as it was called, down the steep hills of Rue Lepic several times much to the amazement of his friends. His efforts won him an order for the first 12 cars, marking his beginning as an auto maker. It also started a long era of Renault’s list of patents starting with Louis Renault’s universal jointed propeller shaft, which came with a three-gear box including reverse, with the third gear in direct drive.

His car came to be known as Renault Voiturette Type A. In the year 1899, the company, Renault Freres, was formed when Fernand and Marcel Renault joined hands with Louis Renault. When the company started to offer their patented creation to others, the money flowing in from the patent was channeled towards the expansion of the company.

Understanding the role played by racing in the publicity of the car, the Renault brothers started to take active involvement in racing their own creations. Unfortunately, Marcel Renault experienced a tragic death during the 1903 Paris-Madrid race.

In the meantime, the company’s introduced the Type B and the first commercial vehicle, the Type C and the Type K with enhanced features that were capable of driving at a speed of more than 60 kph. This drew a lot of attention from the public. . .

The year 1902 saw another fantastic brainwave from Louis Renault’s, the “supercharged engine” that paved the way for the company’s entry into the F1 racing in the 1970s.

But it was the Marne Taxi, the first taxi in the history of Paris that made Renault widely known.

Louis Renault was a fantastic visionary who recognized the potential in making a giant step towards aeronautics, diversifying into the production of an aircraft engine in 1907.

After the death of Marcel in 1903, the company came into the sole hands of Louis Renault. In 1908, he renamed the company to the Societe des Automobiles. During World War I, his attention was directed to the production of war vehicles, including the aircraft Avant Renault and the FT17 tank.

Renault went under the control of German administrators during the fall of France during World War II. After the death of Louis Renault in 1944, the company continued its direction in racing with Renault’s turbine-powered Étoile Filante — making a world speed record that still holds excellent today by travelling at a speed of 308. 9 kph.

Through numerous mergers and acquisitions, innovative design and revolutionary technologies, Renault has continued its saga as a fantastic auto manufacturer, moving into the fourth position after its alliance with Nissan.
