I must admit to being constantly amazed by gargantuan paragraphs and never ending sentences. I seem to take some kind of delight counting the words of a ridiculously long sentence rather than actually bothering to read it.

Dont people understand that something is easier to read if it is spaced out (rather than making the reader feel spaced out). Dont people get it that truly, sometimes a person may forget what was at the beginning of the sentence - and how much fun is it to keep the same meandering sentence over and over?...

For me its a question of elementary logic rather than the way one has been taught.

Oh yeah, lowercase is acceptable - on a mobile. :) ]]> http://blog.b92.net/text/521/Serbia%20and%20the%20Flames/#komentari Wed, 25 Jul 2007 15:24:25 GMT bganon http://blog.b92.net/text/521/Serbia%20and%20the%20Flames/ http://blog.b92.net/text/521/Serbia%20and%20the%20Flames/#k29779

In a 'normal' summer, the Atlantic jetstream directs areas of low pressure, which bring cloud and rain, to the north of the UK. High pressure systems over Europe and the Atlantic bring warm, settled conditions.


This summer, the jetstream is flowing further south allowing low pressure systems to sweep straight over the centre of Britain. It is also pulling in warmer air from the sub-tropics and Africa which is sweeping over south-eastern Europe.

In Serbia, the agriculture ministry says 30% of the country's annual harvest has been destroyed because of the heat, with the wheat, soya and vegetable crops worst hit.

Up to 500 people have died in the past week from a heatwave in Hungary, a top health official has said. ]]> http://blog.b92.net/text/521/Serbia%20and%20the%20Flames/#komentari Wed, 25 Jul 2007 11:48:35 GMT Shumar http://blog.b92.net/text/521/Serbia%20and%20the%20Flames/ http://blog.b92.net/text/521/Serbia%20and%20the%20Flames/#k29729
i agree, it's high time my 'pisi kao sto govoris' tiring style took a back seat to a more concise and to-the-point way of writing. testimonials of the type -- 'holy stack rapture during parsing batman!' are not uncommon in written communication between myself and an unassuming victim who 'actually had to remove giant clauses from the paragr^H^H^H^H^H^Hsentence in order to match up all the pieces' and make decent sense of it. and don't even get me started with the commas. i guess the rule there is -- every time you run out of breath, make sure to mark it with a comma. it scarcely helps that the comments on this blog have to be previewed before final submittal.

hope is on the way: as part of my BIG 30 resolution set, not only will i be letting my texts marinate till clearer head is in place, but i'll also be giving up the *all lowercase* style that has been boring me out of my mind lately.

Whilst I was being roasted alive on public transport yesterday I was fascinated by an unsophisticated boy sitting by the sunny side of the window. I could see the pools of sweat forming on him which were dripping onto the seat. Neither did he move to another seat or even appear to notice the rainfall on his body.

Srdjane I think the usual explanation on this type of subject - that Serbs are more concerned with day-to-day issues, isnt the whole story. I think the media play a huge role in informing / influencing the thinking of the public. Yes, we get picture of forest fires in Serbia or statistics about how one woman died in Croatia, or a quick report on the floods in England. (that have caused an estimated 2 billion pounds of damage)
But we dont get a report tying the stories together in the global context or the context of global warming. Maybe I missed such a report as well.

For me this weather is THE story of the past week in Serbia, in Europe but also further afield. I have read reports in English about other parts of the world that are also experiencing similar extreme types of weather. There is a world pattern here and valjda smo mi part of the story too.

US Senate considers bill that would dole out federal money for weather modification research.

read: http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,178183,00.html

After a brutal year of hurricanes, tornadoes, floods and droughts, lawmakers are looking for ways to beat Mother Nature.

And while it's still a bit of a long shot, Uncle Sam could be called in to sponsor research to find ways to blast dangerous storms out of the sky or put rain clouds over parched land.

"This is a fascinating subject to me, and the idea that we can actually impact weather is exciting, and I guess, frightening in some ways," Sen. Jim DeMint, R-S.C., said during a November hearing on a bill that could start up a federal weather modification research program.

"Consider the damage by Hurricane Katrina. ... They've got to invest some money," Machos told FOX News. "Time and time again, this stuff happens again. They real question is whether or not we're going to learn anything from what happened this year."

DeFelice told FOXNews.com this week that he's optimistic Congress will approve Hutchison's bill despite the removal of funding. He said researchers could easily use $50 million a year.

He added that restarting a federal weather modification research program could help solve some of the world's most pressing problems. In addition to trying to curb deadly storms, scientists hope one day to be able to control the weather so no one suffers from droughts.

"We don't want to play gods, but we do want to help nature," DeFelice said. "And because of pollution, we may need to help nature along a little more than we had in the past."

Najveća tragedija jeste u tome što se ovakva ekološka katastrofa može sprečiti pravovremenom i organizovanom reakcijom, dok su požari još u začetku. Bez aviona, bez mehanizacije, tehnikom "kontra paljenja" - kontrolisanim paljenjem oblasti do kojih požar još nije stigao. Kad stigne, nema ničega što bi više gorelo i požar se lokalizuje. Naravno, nije ovo tako jednostavno, a i vetar je otežavajući faktor - ali nepovoljan vetar sigurno nije duvao svih sedam dana. Problem je, kao i uvek, u organizaciji, odgovornosti i stručnosti. A o stručnosti ministra za životnu sredinu mogu da sudim na osnovu toga što u intervjuu za b92 rečenicu počinje sa "pretpostavljam da bi trebalo da postoji..." - vidi se da čovek nema pojma.

Dakle, traže se krivci. Požara je oduvek bilo i uvek će biti, zbog ljudskih ili drugih faktora. Posao države je da na velike probleme odgovori resursima, znanjem, autoritetom i organizacijom koja je samo državi dostupna. To što je požar počeo iz ovih ili onih razloga i što su i druge zemlje u istim problemima nije opravdanje. Naročito zato što su nesposobnost, nemar i potpuno odsustvo veze sa realnošću vlasti OVE države u OVOM slučaju toliko očigledni - ej bre, oni su i danas u skupštini raspravljali o Kosovu. Pa dooookle!!!?? Verovatno dok se i skupština ponovo ne zapali.

Ima i neke mučne simbolike u ovoj priči. Glavni razlog za lošu reakciju države je nepostojanje zakona koji bi regulisali postupanje u ovakvim situacijama - organizacija civilne odbrane, posebni organi i službe sa definisanim odgovornostima. Da su, dakle, politički špekulanti manje trgovali prošle zime, a više radili posao za koji su izabrani i za koji primaju plate debele kao njihove guzice, manje bi gorelo ovog leta. Kao kod cvrčka i mrava. Samo obrnuto. ]]> http://blog.b92.net/text/521/Serbia%20and%20the%20Flames/#komentari Tue, 24 Jul 2007 21:06:35 GMT deadbeat http://blog.b92.net/text/521/Serbia%20and%20the%20Flames/ http://blog.b92.net/text/521/Serbia%20and%20the%20Flames/#k29411

The fact that hardly one blogger seems to have mentioned the extraordinary weather

You know Jasmina I was going to do a post on this but too exhausted to get it together. The fact that hardly one blogger seems to have mentioned the extraordinary weather and barely any media have discussed the issue of global warming leads me to believe that most of our fellow bloggers are living abroad (or have air conditioning) and that much of the media are staffed by the myopic who are more interested in reporting that most sexy of subjects in Serbia - politics. Maybe the sun has got to all of us.

There is little talk about the fact that areas of Serbia have been hit by drought even if the fires have made the news.
Amazingly enough to my knowledge we have had no fatalities as a result of this hottest of heat waves (excluding men from inner Serbia who appear to enjoy drunken nightswimming) whilst the Romanians appear to be dropping like flies.

I noticed that the hottest day in Belgrade in 100 years or so did not deter people from going to Ada Ciganlija to sunbathe today. The cold kills Serbs but the heat does not. :) ]]> http://blog.b92.net/text/521/Serbia%20and%20the%20Flames/#komentari Tue, 24 Jul 2007 18:45:54 GMT bganon http://blog.b92.net/text/521/Serbia%20and%20the%20Flames/
