Ukraine: current events:

HI , and best wishes to all. I saw hsvgo's post about traveling to Brisbane then to Ukraine. With the U.S. media deleting Ukraine news, I've gone to Youtube. I saw the Maidan anniversary in Kiev from Feb. with the mob throwing bricks @ police and tear gas. Lately the Donbass blockade today. I did NOT know they formed their own RADA in the east, and cut off sending money to Kiev. It will be INTERESTING when California files to secede from the U.S., we all know that is coming, as they can get the 600K signatures easily. The whole west coast is blue as we know. Re the Ukraine language: "No one needs it, if they want work !" I recently took my daughter's laptop to the arab down the street. The woman behind the counter was Russian from Latvia, and her brother left for Belgium as there is no work in Latvia. "These places did NOT take German in school, and therefore can not get work!" The world has no use for these languages. They can sit and wave the flag tho. On another topic, I am bored most of the time, just watching the mkt. I test drove an AUDI A5 this morning, it WAS NICE with backup cameras, sunroof switch, GPS. it was a 2015 and the guy wanted about $23 k. Very nice car., do I need it ,no. my Mitsu is running good. I would like to be on a sailboat in Fla maybe, winter has been mild near Chi, but 30's all next week. Sorry to read about the attack in Carpathi. Take care guys!

Ukraine: the nazi party:

What have any of you done to inhibit the Ukraine Nazi movement ? If I remember correctly, the man from Kherson /Houston was in the Rangers long ago. The media posts pics staged by McCain and cronies ,(I do not know) of marches in Odessa remenisant of the parades in Berlin long ago. I suspect people file charges against this for NOT having a parade permit or otherwise like in Chicago. 4 roaches from the "west side" in Chi are on national media as you have seen today. I don't see anything herein as you guys are "on the front." take care

Ukraine: the latest posts:

I was reading the posts from hsvgo and Nate, and was just wondering WHERE hsvgo is residing! Are you in Odessa ? I remember Bill from Houston is in Kherson, best wishes guys, take care.

Ukraine: Private BAnk:

I saw the story today on "Russian Insider" news link I have on my icons. Click on the story and you can get "He ain't heavy he's my brother." I always liked that song, and never knew many years it was from the Nam era until I saw history photos. It is stated "Private Bank " insiders made large loans to "shell companies", and dumped the bank's remains on Porshenko. There is another story from Brooklyn about some men in Platinum Securities running a ponzi scheme, not Ukraine connected. They were caught before they got the family to Israel. The amusing part was the Feds evesdropped on the phone calls, where one guy said the wife told him to get the kids out, he was on the way to the airport, and how to tell the investors. take care and happy holiday !

Ukraine: childish media postings:

Just saying: Once in a while some media posts, as I saw today, Trump wants the E.U. to foot the bill for the U.S. in Europe. No one WANTS thugs from the U.S. over there except the bar keepers. How many times do we read a story about vets going to Arab lands 2 or 3 tours, and getting shot HERE! I have coffee with the old black fellas once in a while, " they know the score" around Chi.! NO future for the young thugs , but jail , or working @ Burger King, etc., there are only so many football and basketball positions. Thank God Clinton has disappeared, and maybe Trump will help stop the madness over there. Move NATO to the Rio Grande, there is NO use for them in Europe. A story I read a few mins ago somewhere stated "It will take a generation to straighten out Ukraine." Maybe it was a U.K. paper. "The whole gov. has to go, along with the crazies marching around with flags," (my words). When I was there long ago, there were no flags, who cares . take care guys......

Ukraine: Your posts:

Big hello to everyone ! I just dropped in to read the latest, as for me, I dug my tennis racket out of the garage to begin exercise again @ the town tennis bldg., and was out last night with a snow shovel getting fresh air: about 4 inches snow near Chicago yesterday. Nate is out in ski country. I saw the post about the last one out of Kiev "turn the lights off, and my wife saw on t.v. conditions are not like Paris in Ukraine re: living conditions, I wonder how I would feel there, always on edge I guess. God knows when things will improve, they can't keep blaming everything on Russia. If the Cubs lost that last game, they would have blamed THAT on Putin. It is hard to get honest news, and last week Yahoo posted: "Trump says the U.S. will STOP trying to overthrow governments! " Take care all, have a nice Christmas

Ukraine: healt care:

Perhaps you all caught the stories recently that Medicare, Medicaid, and the V.A. are p.o.'d @ the costs of drugs.Yahoo had a story that out of the top 10 drugs 5 are killing the budgets. GILD (which ) I read about, charges 100K to clear one of hep C, and other drugs cost huge money. If they cut the military in half, we could have HELP for the vets and working people. The story stated the gov. may buy from Canada.

Russia: new reset with Russia:

Hopefully Trump will not let the warmongers in like the guy with the mustache Bolton I think he calls himself, or "crazy McCain from Arizona. We were lucky to dodge the bullet with Clinton. The latest I read is Trump wants new and good relations with Putin and Russia. No one wants Ukraine dragging them down like an anchor with more corruption than the U.S. (swamp) in Washington.

Ukraine: healthcare HERE:

I won't bring up anything touchy to anyone. About OUR healthcare" being on the O'Bama care this year. The main hospitals did not want to accept the gov. insurance,(HMO's), and we were given a "third world hosp" in Chicago, "never again" will I put my wife thru that! WE are awaiting help from Mr. Trump. The ins keeps being raised so the ave. Joe cannot afford it even with the subsidies. When we called Merrillville area hospitals over the border,they give one the brush off, and I am not driving to Wisc. for no help. About all I've been up to is watching the BNSF engines @ their terminal 15 mins away today, I wish they would have "open house." CSX is close to me, but no open house. I'm a train fan.

Ukraine: Healthcare:

Hello and best wishes everyone. I am surprised to hear about NATE as Hate is not old. I do remember a mech. who was in his 30's getting a stent when I was getting in my qtr yr before retiring near Chicago. Nate,Albina and I are wondering, "WHERE are your V.A. benefits?
