Earlier this season the Abu-Dhabi United Group marked their takeover of City with the £32.5 million purchase of Robinho from Real Madrid - the first piece of what they declared would become a bona fida fantasy football team - and the ill-fated Kaka deal this January is a statement by the owners that money is no object." http://soccernet.espn.go.com/columns/story?id=611489&sec=england&root=england&lpos=spotlight&lid=tab1pos1&&cc=5739 ********** Well - I know what "kak...

part 3 of prisoner part 3 of prisoner     Edited and republished 2011 (Final).     Monday, November 28, 2005 Prisoner number........ Part III of IV Never having been inside a real prison (some vicious tongues would say through pure luck), I have no idea of the general routine there.

Billions, Trillions, and if they exist, Dillions are being pumped into the economy. This is the out-most post of “freedom” or “capitalism” – the place where it bangs head-on into “communism” or “socialism”. As such, both powers have to publicize the advantages, not only of the one, but also the other - in other words - of their own system. It’s called propaganda! Since the Eastern zones and Block, simply didn’t have the money, they concentrated their efforts on Berlin, as the Capital city of the DDR (Deutsches Demokratisches Republik), whereas the West...
