What To Say In A Sympathy Card

readership draw a charity, or genocidal lies dormant in all of us - Wojciech Tochman and death

my notebooks are swollen like corpses in the water, (...) my notebooks stink, everything they have, comes up to me now throat. And until recently I wanted to hear about all the dead. Each death record, every rape, every infection, every rate cut, each child drowned in shit

closed last page I think a long time, yet I can not reach. I put the book and I feel like I ran out of words, as if something held me back from the comments. I survive. I cry.
first time I feel helpless when it comes to writing. In my head I am utter emptiness of mind 'and simultaneously, I would like to convey. Terrible to say - is not enough. Moved by - of course, but what can? Indeed, I have no idea on how to describe the book.
Everything has been done. Already we know that death will draw Today A report by Wojciech Tochman the genocide in Rwanda, a day after it properly. The image on the - in the land of a thousand hills and a million smiles , in the minds and homes of people. Those who survived and those who murdered them. There is only one - there are those who have died. There are no names of victims, torturers burned the evidence because of personal and population censuses. Because the few remaining witnesses, beheaded when the whole family. There are no graves inscribed, for the mass graves, for which corpses were thrown murdered Tutsi. There are mummified, covered with lime body to certify the cruel crime. Crimes, as has happened in this tiny, small as our province the country - Rwanda. Land of a thousand hills, which, consuming the bones of dead have become witnesses to the death of a million people.

now will not even numbers? Number of victims inscribed on the monument pricks the eyes of the perpetrators? There is no family in Rwanda, in which the offender would not be genocide. Or victim. Families of the perpetrators, of course, is much more. Relatives killers pray on their knees. I kneel killer. The majority are Roman Catholics. Apparently the number of those who were killed - as seen every Sunday on his way to the house of God - hinders national reconciliation. So the number of painted over.

catalyst for the genocide in Rwanda was an attack on the presidential plane at Kigali airport on 6 April 1994 year. Hutu Convinced that they stand as representatives of the Tutsi attack move to take revenge for them wiped from the earth. Armed with machetes, knives and primitive weapons are killing anyone who stands in their way. Reach every home in which they live Tutsi. Their goal is to trace and memory ZATRA after this tribe. But not only that we draw is Today death. It is also a picture of what is left in the minds of survivors, in the minds of murdering and those who were born 17 years ago, often being the result of rape. Today półHutu Tutsi born by a woman and living in their family (if it survived) as a descendant of the murderer. Today, we draw the death relation to specific places on earth. Where the victim lived side by side and each category to sight the house to welcome neighbors greeting. And injuries? They hide deep - we both. Because nobody is able to help them. You can not undo the wrongs in order to save those who stayed, or you can not understand and forgive what they did tormentors.

shocking numbers? Here you go, to illustrate - 10 000 killed per day, giving some 417 persons per hour, which crushed the skull with a machete, possibly with the "laziness" or drunkenness, and so shot through 100 days which gives 1 000 000 people ( million dead PEOPLE ). Half, ie 500 000 killed Hutu reached after almost a month murder. There are still two months to the end of genocide, two months during the which killed a further five hundred thousand Rwandans. And the world remained silent, passively waiting for the UN, looking at the bloody river begins its new run.
But I wanted to write about numbers, but about a neutral attitude of those who need help. The passivity of the said UN and church. This is the church in Rwanda today to apply tribal division, which since the genocide abandoned authorities and the public.

missionaries in Rwanda, together with local priests to care for the faithful distribution of Hutus and Tutsis. So were a hundred and fifty years ago, and now. The clergy is nourished by this division: now oppressed people suffering under the regime of Hutu Tutsi. The church - of course - must be the weaker ones.


course scared me the cruelty of fighting (though hard to speak about the fight at the defenseless Tutsis), senseless death, bloody murders and rapes, but most struck by the attitude of the priests. Clerics who had support for the believer to be a nation in a moment of doubt and danger. I am unable to understand the cowardice of priests in the face of death, because it is such the same people, like everyone else. I did not to blame, because she probably stchórzyłabym, fled without looking back. But if they were able to exit the secure area just to the church in which the front of their captors were hiding Tutsis amount monstrance, not looking at those who are about to die in the fire, who will witness the death of their children has already surpassed my tolerance and understanding. And the fact that no priest on the subject did not want to talk Tochman, even angry at the memory, he turned the whole story trying to prove guilt those that are no longer for me is ineffable, incomprehensible and terrifying. And what about those who are joining the oppressors, they themselves become a murdering, raping and releasing hiding Tutsis? Is the church was embroiled in the genocide in Rwanda? About this does not say this too does not write. Taboo subject, hypocrisy - and where is the compassion and support, even spiritual? There are also a possibility that there is a theory which states that genocide was a way to eliminate the very fast-growing (and spawn) state. Rwanda is a country whose position encouraged the tourist tours, the natural wealth could be the driving engine of money (not necessarily the Rwandan people.) But the people of this country were not an obstacle to the passage. He was on it one way - washing the hands without messing up the blood could have been done. In this way the Father Stanislaw Filipek explains the genocide in Rwanda:

Rwanda is the most densely populated country in the world. I had something to do with it. Global companies that produce condoms, and present in their interest to governments in Rwanda zwietrzyły business. Sell \u200b\u200bcondoms here as much as possible. And pills, spirals. Hit resistance. Because in Rwanda is a strong Catholic Church and its teachings. Thus was launched the death machine. Different types of campaigns, to use contraception. And when this failed, the world came up with a definitive solution for Rwanda. Genocide.

The fact that we know so little about the genocide in Rwanda Wojciech Tochman in an interview with Ivy says that ignorance, so I think we should be ashamed. Because of that expected from the world predators: the silence of the graves of the victims . I added that, since the memory of this event does not relieve us or distance in time and space, or cultural differences.

I have no doubt that the murderers need to talk. (...) In the interests of their own butts need to know what guided them.

Today we draw the death also calls for torturers, held a prison sentence for the crimes committed. Those who are in such a cruel way of murdering, in cold blood, without thinking about what they do today, say that either led them Satan, or that they are Hutu attacked Tutsi, or made a mistake, because it was not rape, since the victim did not protest too much. Many other nonsense falls with paragraph murderers, because they believed that they are doing well. Reading this report you have to realize that they - executioners - and it's hard, that someone they once so directed. Then they believed that what they are doing is good, that they are acting in the name of higher goals (as priests). Some feelings are consumed in their minds, perhaps some of them regret and these stupid explanations are an attempt to clean up the win, as the road to a normal life.
and the second one is probably hard to believe in God today. Surviving hard to believe in another person, to trust the authorities and other nations. The more that you can see every step of the traces of what happened on a rainy day in April. Each hill strewn with corpses, now hidden under the crust of their bones - because it made no sense to identify corpses, when there was nobody to be identified (in the pits dug by the Hutu were lying the whole family). Because every surviving building is a living tomb, and the walls heard the screams of all the churches killed. How to live in this country? How to cope with everyday life in the great cemetery, where the earth still wet with blood?
coming up over me so I thought - what is man, if he can in such a carefree way to kill people. Who are considered in deciding someone's life. And another question arises - when you depart this hatred in the world? Because, as he says in an interview Tochman:

genocide (...) is hidden in almost every human being. Regardless of whether you live in Rwanda, or in Poland (...). Adequate enough political circumstances, be extended in a long time and many of us will be ready to kill neighbors. Because genocide never happens spontaneously, from day to day. This lengthy process starts when the power gets mad. It starts with hate speech, and ends with mass killing and erasure.

book ends with a strange scene when Leonard, a guide to Rwanda Tochman era coming to see the inhabitants of the continent of Europe playing at the Memorial to the Holocaust victims. Such a contrast civilization with a conscience. For someone for whom life has decided that his path will lead to the cemetery, whether you like it or not, it is shocking behavior - front, party in the graves. And for us, for civilized people, how proudly we call - what is it? What is respect, peace and death? This book is for us and about us. He talks about our minds whatever we wanted to avoid that annoying theme. He says the state of our memory and consciousness. And what is it? This question everyone should answer himself, in accord with their conscience.

My Dogs Breasts Are Swollen

use kennel cages. Josie. Science

Josie is a 13 week puppy Goldendoodle breed. In accordance with the wishes of its owner is to be handled at the court. Her mother is a student and usually does not leave a dog alone for more than 2-3godziny. Josie received her kennel crate also has a playpen.

Proper use of kennel cage or the transporter makes life easy to the owner, a cage is safe and nice place for a dog. The reason why many people have a bad experience with a kennel cages is the lack of adequate training, adaptive, and too long a one-time spent by a dog in a cage, causing the opposite effect than intended.

cage is helpful include:
a) The purity training - dogs are naturally clean animals and are not handled by the where sleep and eat. While in the cage the dog learns to control the muscles of the bladder and intestines. Toilet training runs much faster.
b) Prevention - to prevent biting and chewing furniture, shoes and walls. By Feeding the dog in a cage of bone and filled with educational toys we made the correct food habits of biting and chewing.
c) In science, relaxation and coping with frustrating situations - in real life a dog does not have access to many desirable things for him: running slowly on a leash when it comes to our food on the table, the dogs, which sees of windows of the house, etc..
d) while driving - dog travels safely, it is helpful for dogs that suffer from motion sickness.
e) prepares the dog for possibly longer stays in the kennel cage - when you travel or stay in the hospital.

second option is a playpen, or room for the dog, although in the case of training the use of clean cage is a better solution.
cage should be large enough that the dog could stand in it and turn around.

To accustom dog cage:
a) Serve at least one meal a day in a cage. Indeed, the scattering of feed in the cage for a dog is fun, this mini-hunting and allows him to burn energy.
b) During the day, hide treats in the cage, so that the dog had a nice surprise when you look into the cage. And it will make her more often and looked likely in search of treats.
c) use a cage with breaks during the day, especially when you're home. Do not let your stay in a dog cage was associated with your absence.
d) When the puppy is moving in the direction frame, or it sits, reward treats (by throwing them into the cage).




Exercise GO
to frame a) Stand by the kennel cage, show little dog a treat, toss him inside the cage and say: 'Go to frame "or use your own command.
b) Wait until the dog enters the cage in search of a treat, then throw one more tidbit, when it is in the middle.
c) If the dog is reluctant to entry into the cage, throw a few goodies near the entrance to encourage him to enter inside.
d) Repeat this exercise several times in a row and several times during the day.
e) When the dog willingly runs into the cage, point hand in the cage, use the command and wait until you come to the center and then reward treat.

Tip: Always reward a dog in a cage, not outside it. Tidbit thrown into a cage is better than rewarded with the hand.

Today we draw a story of loneliness, of book-certificate "But sometimes dreamer" J. Wiszniewicz

But sometimes dreamer. The story of a lonely it at first glance the story of the Holocaust. But only the combination is nothing more mistaken. Yes, the book is Joan Wiszniewicz conversation, which in a way had to be can help to cope with the past of its protagonist, but it's probably mainly a record of deep penetration in yourself and seek self-identity. Reconciliation with each other - with this, what was done and what not dopatrzyło, from what I have escaped, and the important decisions facing pochyliło head. The book, of which its author, Joanna Wiszniewicz writes that occurred a little out of my will a record of nearly three years of the author's conversations with Alex, a Polish Jew, now living in America. (Hero of the book does not give his real name, but in the name of the inaccuracy can be no doubt.) This is a very private experience, the constant accompaniment of personal przeżyciom man who as a young man experienced the ordeal of war and Jews.
War meets Alex in its most beautiful period of life - growing up, changing schools, learning about the world, an unforgettable relationship. And here it happens something that is hard to imagine something we have not been, unknown and dangerous. The hero of the book comes from an intellectual Jewish family. Only child, raised in a warm atmosphere, with no sense of danger, without the responsibilities and problems can not imagine the evil posed by the war. Sam, still niepogodzony with each other, reluctant to be congruent with the family and sometimes burning feeling ashamed of their roots, is forced to a rapid decision to defend their own dignity. To grant to the past. Alexander his whole life sharply criticized prewar Jewish environment, and also could not understand the behavior of anti-Semitic Poles. Lost between the family and their own, inexperienced thoughts, between the family and what surrounds it stumbles over the force. Suddenly cease to be an important existing problems, suddenly the war, Germany and hunger prevail. But Alex still lives in a little deluded. With all the time hope this is temporary, that just kind of postraszenia, a small punishment for Jewish pride if condones the ghetto, German regime. Covered with a protective umbrella of the family still deals only with science, friends and their own world. Too late awakening occurs in Alex. Too often the aid pull-out hand. Too late does not want the inevitable.

Now, when the war broke out, and I was almost twelve years, could, in principle, something to help my family. But it's "you're shiftless" in me was so strong that there is still persistent in the belief that, from caring about what I eat and where to sleep, there are others. My World is a former book, dreams and discussions. The world of abstraction, the world of intellectual development. Went back into it more and more. And more and more odgradzałem books from the real world.

say that later, is the story of the camp, the capture of fleeing life, to describe the desperate clinging to slippery days is not enough. Too little, because each such certificate is different, each is added to the sum of wrongs. Said also that he is well, that is over, that is outdated is a sin. This is where the evil in the war. Until we are people who went to hell as long as you are such a certificate and while still talking about it will not be enough. I never should be. How much internal struggle went through each of the orphaned by faith and strength, each vulnerable to war, only to learn of such certificates as But sometimes dreamer.
How I hated myself and Alex as much ashamed of his origin, he did not want to reveal his real name. How much had to be niepogodzony and also how proud of his origin. What needs to be a heavy feeling. Be a nation without a map, nation subject, pleading for mercy. Aleks says - without pride and their dignity. Yes niepogodzonym that without fear of pain and cowardice wishing death. Conferring worm to creep, just to save your skin.

This lack of integration is a common ailment Jewish. Of course, you do not have to be Jewish to have destabilized personality - and also can be a Jew with a very integrated mind, like my father. But with the disintegration of Jewish is a little like tuberculosis. You live in poor conditions, bad eat properly and not become ill with tuberculosis. But when you have a predisposition to tuberculosis ...
If you are a Jew growing up in assimilating to the family, your growing up in Poland falls in the thirties and have poor mental construction ...


Holocaust is not over, the camps can not be forgotten , przystawionych gun to his head can not help but dream, a feeling of hunger will forever be associated with the camp soup. What is after the war? This question also answers the book by Joanna Wiszniewicz. Raises the problem of forgetting tests and come to terms with what is apparent from the war. Regardless of the win, the joy of life created a sense of shame and reluctance to return to those moments. Hence, probably Alex wants to remain anonymous caller - do not want those to know, do not want to confirm their smallness, their humiliation. Today, being a citizen of America does not refresh the past, not watering the roots. Next is a little torn between being a Jew, a little Pole.

Maybe I wanted to know if my humiliation was necessary? And the humiliation of other Jews in the ghettos and camps were necessary?
thought that as a Jew I am something else and I do not belong to Europe, constantly tormented me. Poles in the Polish way belong to Europe, I told myself, the French in the French manner, and the Jews not because they are not a nation. So if I'm not European, then who in the end I am?
did not want to be a Jew. I do not know what I would want to be, but not a Jew.

From the beginning, the story is finding its own identity, of self. War, destruction and the will to survive in the camp (although I am far from finding that was needed) unless Alex helped to find what you are looking for since childhood. In a painful way shell may, in its being, the existence of nationality, consciousness.
And although it is still unclear whether the man opened up the old environment, or returned to the old places and adopted at the end of a friendly outstretched hand, we know for sure that somehow the only known way confessed to her origin and reconciled with him. Maybe a little perversely, perhaps for peace, either, and grief. Reading But sometimes ... you can refer the impression that Alex, as it were a synonym for the Jewish people blame themselves for the war. Accuses the Jews pride and confidence, lifestyle annoying ( not act like a Jew, do not say out loud as Jew), who perhaps contributed to the hostile, anti-Semitism (although it condemns such actions), for the war. When the concentration camp he meets the French, or Dutch only aware of the enormity and scope of the war. It is understood that it is not only the Jewish nation is guilty of the death and destruction of their own nation.
survivor of the camps, after years styling her life, absorbing all the information regarding the war. In this way, trying to cure their complexes, forget the sorrow, which provides him with the serfdom of the Jews in the camps, even though it was just a will to survive. Then, it will, without a fight for the honor is a source of frustration for Alex and a persistent lack of belonging. Many years had to pass, many events and issues have to stifle the pain of war that Alex has found the identity, experience of being Jewish.

And I think that Poland could not be "just Jewish" "Jew neutral" - as I am in America (....) In Poland, I could not be a Jew, who with her Jewishness is no longer a problem. So when I see that there the problem of belonging of Jews coming back to me, it is with great relief to say that I said I am no longer sick.

After reading the book by Joanna Wiszniewicz reminds me of a couple of questions. First of all, if it is still such citizens of the world who do not come to terms with his own story, with who they were born. How many people searching for identity. And one more thing think is important - whether today we are able to appreciate such a certificate. Save them from death and oblivion. As long as humanity in the face of continuous wars will want to remember about that. And I so wish - we never forget the people who were forced to forget about honor and self-identity.

Life without Walls - Charles Bukowski

handyman Charles Bukowski * is a book-road. Sometimes that equally tortuous and full of dirt. Henry Chinaskiego way of life, which is wandering the United States ima up various jobs, often toting a long time in any of them. Actually I do not know what's going on Henry? Is that what that work is not so, the head of fussy, or perhaps too little pay? Henry is also not met the poet, who keeps his lyrics in a drawer, hoping for the miraculous appearance of the eyes of readers. But creativity is not a watered alcohol publishing great value.
This young man typical of the world unless totumfackiego nothing holds. Alienated, excommunicated from the family and is not capable to maintain any relationship with a woman for a long thread a few weeks is created just for you. Chinasky is a little "worse" the incarnation of Holden Caulfield, but it's still nice obibokiem and the eternal dreamer. And the only one who really likes him, who understands what motives guided him in this lonely spot a man capable man. Individualist with its own plan for yourself. And what about the fact that Henry is in a permanent state of drunkenness? And what is that, being his friend, there are also pull him from prison and debt. Or read his drunken gibberish. Chinasky though it seems to need help, do not expect. I do not want to change, I do not want normalnieć.
I think Bukowski in a perfect way to beat that you can not give in to stereotypes, that even when such an "outcast" (read: having an idea for yourself, and sometimes different from the others) can exist in a society can be popular. Do you have a boring job, hot posadki do not need to be repeated a man to be happy. Author
the characteristic way "floweriness" text of the book profanity. Although these "flowers" can sometimes interfere, rubbing against pornography, is an element of both life and treasured works of Bukowski.
And there is nothing to be outraged, comment on, because in handyman is all (as the name suggests) that which surrounds us. handyman is a book about what balibyśmy admit. Such fun, though at times depressing reality. And until you want to laugh, so you can live and be happy.

* (unless the particular taste for the last writers of this name? I wonder who will be next - unless I have my type)
