O novo guia da conversação em portuguez e inglez, commonly known by the name English as She Is Spoke, is a 19th-century book written by Pedro Carolino, with some editions crediting José da Fonseca as a co-author. It was intended as a Portuguese–English conversational guide or phrase book. However, because the provided translations are usually inaccurate or unidiomatic, it is regarded as a classic source of unintentional humour in translation. The humour largely arises from Carolino's indiscriminate use of literal translation, which has led to many idiomatic expressions being translated ineptly. For example, Carolino translates the Portuguese phrase chover a cântaros as "raining in jars", when an analogous English idiom is available in the form of "raining buckets". It is widely believed that Carolino could not speak English and that a French–English dictionary was used to translate an earlier Portuguese–French phrase book, O novo guia da conversação em francês e português, written by José da Fonseca. Carolino likely added Fonseca's name to the book, without his permission, in an attempt to give it some credibility. The Portuguese–French phrase book is apparently a competent work, without the defects that characterize English as She Is Spoke.The title English as She Is Spoke was given to the book in its 1883 republication, but the phrase does not appear in the original phrasebook, nor does the word "spoke".

Review of Masha Gessen's "The Man Without A Face"

Certainly not evidence enough to justify inaction in someone's time of need. You have a large platform, instead of helping, you are deliberately dividing/distracting. Cui bono?”

Russian President Vladimir Putin (R) met Belarus President Alexander Lukashenko, St. Petersburg, July 23, 2023 The problem with the war in Ukraine is that it has been all smoke and mirrors. The Russian objectives of “demilitarisation” and “de-Nazification” of Ukraine wore a surreal look. The western narrative that the war is between Russia and Ukraine, … Continue reading "Glimpses of an endgame in Ukraine"

SS IN BRITAIN for Network ITV (January 2001) In 1947 the British Government brought an entire division of the Nazi SS to live in Britain, 8000 Ukrainians of the 14th SS Division Galizien. Some 1500 are still living here in 2001. Although they claimed never to have committed war crimes, for the first time, this film provided concrete detailed evidence of their involvement in terrible atrocities. As a result of this investigation questions were put down in Parliament, Scotland Yard set up an inquiry in the UK, and a similar investigation was established in Poland.

Multiple reports are reinvestigating the neo-Nazi fighters and militias involved in the war both in Russia and Ukraine. "You have neo-Nazis on both sides of this conflict," says Ukrainian American journalist Lev Golinkin, a longtime reporter on the far right in Ukraine and Russia who is critical of the Western media's normalization of groups like the Azov Battalion. "We are sending a very dangerous message that if you're the right type of neo-Nazis, we will not only work with you, we will celebrate you," Golinkin notes. We also speak with national security reporter Ben Makuch, whose investigations reveal the networks connecting Ukrainian and Russian militias and American neo-Nazis. An anti-Putin Russian militia that carried out attacks inside Russia in May was led by a neo-Nazi who has maintained links with American neo-Nazis. In a new piece, Makuch also shares the story of an American military veteran wanted for murder who is now fighting for ultranationalist groups in Ukraine. "We know there has been secretive pipelines and networks," says Makuch. "That still exists."

A Chronology of Events and Case for Diplomacy

The mainstream media, Democrats and liberals in general have deemed the January 6th rioters as enemies of democracy and a threat to everything the nation holds dear. Yet one rioter who can be seen on video repeatedly inciting people to enter the Capitol Building has gotten a pass, even after appearing on a list of FBI suspects (a list his name soon disappeared from). Jimmy wonders why this individual, whose name rhymes with "Bay Bepps," has become such a darling of liberals despite being an insurrectionist Trump supporter.
