Jay leno是在美国开美国总统的玩笑吧?
美国人说: 美国很民主，因为我们的节目主持人可以公开拿美国总统开玩笑。

你还别不服气，现在加拿大的社会体制，就是你不喜欢的西方民主。倒是你的"人民民主专政"，只能在你家里玩。

波兰
====
波兰经济在世界上大致处于中等发展水平。自1989年推行以发达资本主义国家的经济为模式的经济变革以来，大幅度放开物价，放开商品流通，允许私人经商(包括从事外贸)、私人开银行，建立有价证券交易所、股票市场，实行本国货币与外币在国内自由兑换。几年来，恶性通货膨胀已由原来的三位数降为两位数，市场趋于平衡。1992年起经济开始回升，1995年恢复到1989年水平，目前经济增长趋势比较稳定。1996年4 月，波政府通过“2000年计划”，制订了波兰本世纪最后几年的宏观经济政策，旨在为加入欧盟作最后的准备。主要内容为：逐步降低通货膨胀率；保持经济的持续高速增长；降低财政赤字；控制失业。1990年7月13日《国营企业私有化法》生效时，波总共有8400家国营企业，到1995年底，共有5208家原有国营企业参加了所有制改造(占原国营企业总数的60%)，其中有1610家完成改造。1995年，波私营部门就业人员占就业总人数的62.6%，创造的产值占国内生产总值的58.8%。

捷克
====
据捷克统计局７月公布的最新数据，在２００６年上半年，捷克的经济增长率为５．５％，大大高于同期欧盟的经济增长率２．３％。自入盟以来，捷克已连续两年保持经济的快速发展。有预测认为，继去年达到创纪录的６％之后，今年的捷克经济增长率将继续攀升至６．１％，使捷克跻身于经济最具有活力的欧洲国家之列。
捷克于２００４年５月１日加入欧盟。入盟后，捷克政府继续进行一系列经济调整，包括进一步开放外贸经营权、降低关税等，大大促进了捷克的外贸和引资，同时为加强捷克与其他欧盟成员国的经贸关系提供了极大便利。两年来，捷克的对外贸易总额始终保持在两位数增长的水平，仅今年上半年就比去年同期增长了１７％。在捷克的对外贸易总额中，有近７０％是在欧盟内实现的，欧盟国家已成为捷克经济增长的主要拉动力。
此外，高素质而又廉价的劳动力，也是捷克吸引外国投资的一个优势。为了更便捷地向欧洲地区输送自己的产品，有越来越多的外国厂商倾向于在生产成本相对较低的中东欧国家设厂。捷克有６０％的居民受过中等以上教育，国民受教育程度远远高于同期入盟的其他国家。但其人均月工资为１．９万捷克克朗（１美元约合２２捷克克朗），仅是德国的１／４。因此，一些外国投资商不但将加工厂搬到了捷克，还将一部分研究机构设在了那里。２００５年捷克共吸引外资１１０亿美元比上一年增加了一倍。随着美国的微软、荷兰的飞利浦、韩国的现代等一大批外国资本的进入，捷克在学习和吸收新技术和新管理方式的过程中不断提升其整体工业水平和产品的国际竞争力。
经济增长带动了就业率和生活水平的提高。据统计，在今年上半年，捷克的失业率已降至７．７％，较入盟前降低了近两个百分点；社会平均工资比去年提高了２％，人民群众的购买力也相应提高，同一时期，捷克的家庭消费增长了２．４％，国内商品供给量增加了６．１％。
经过两年的磨合，捷克加速了融入欧盟经济圈的步伐，这为其将来平稳加入欧元区奠定了良好基础。

本坛的某些人，很希望阿富汗再次成为疆独武装份子的训练基地。

ZT: PM adopts softer tone on Mideast conflict
PM adopts softer tone on Mideast conflict

CORNWALL, Ont. ― Prime Minister Stephen Harper softened his tone on the Middle East Friday in an interview on Quebec television, saying a lot has changed in the three weeks since he called the Israeli attacks on Lebanon a “measured response.”
“We were talking about three weeks ago when Hezbollah took Israeli soldiers hostage, and an initial response,” Mr. Harper told the TVA network in French.
“But now we have a completely different situation from three weeks ago, as I've said many times. We have a full-blown conflict, almost a war. And it's hard to say whether a response is proportional to another. It's a war.
“I'm a father. I understand the death of children, the death of families and it's terrible, as I said. It's not only terrible for Canadians. It's terrible for the thousands of people killed in Lebanon, Israel and Gaza.”

It was a softer approach for the Prime Minister, who has made few official comments on the crisis in the Middle East and who was widely criticized in the Lebanese community for using the term “measured response.”
His comments were directed at an audience in Quebec, where a majority of people oppose Mr. Harper's support of Israel. A recent Strategic Counsel poll for The Globe and Mail and CTV found that 45 per cent of voters in Canada disagree with his support of Israel's actions, but in Quebec that number climbs to 61 per cent.
Mr. Harper struck a decidedly different tone in another interview taped Friday for CTV's Question Period, to be aired tomorrow, and at a meeting of the Conservative Party caucus in Cornwall, Ont.
Asked by a CTV reporter about criticisms that Canada has given up its role as a neutral voice and honest broker in the Middle East, Mr. Harper responded: “What's the neutrality here? Are we neutral with regard to Hezbollah? Are we neutral on a terrorist group? I don't think the opposition wants to say that ... but if they want to say it let them say it explicitly.
“What exactly are they saying? Are they suggesting Israel unilaterally stop defending itself, or stop participating or declare a unilateral ceasefire? Are they suggesting we become neutral vis-à-vis terrorist organizations that we're fighting in Afghanistan, that we're frankly fighting in this country with the arrests in Toronto? This is not a viable position.”
And in Cornwall, Mr. Harper said that Canadians who comprehend the Conservative government's support of Israel's bombardment of Lebanon agree with the decision to take a side in the conflict.
“I think the position we have, properly understood, is exactly the position of Canadians.
“Canadians want to see peace and stability in the Middle East. Canadians are not neutral on terrorism or on terrorist groups and Canadians want us to work with the international community to develop a strong position that can lead to a durable and lasting peace.
Mr. Harper also said “it isn't just a matter of demanding a ceasefire.
“Conditions have to be put in place to make a ceasefire possible and make it stable. Obviously that isn't going to be the case as long as we have a terrorist organization that is initiating violence and won't cease its attacks.”
That is also the position Canada voiced three weeks ago when it joined the other G8 countries in a statement, he said.
In fact, the G8 did blame Hezbollah and Hamas for igniting the crisis but also urged Israel to show “utmost restraint” in a release that allowed world leaders to interpret the wording in different ways.
Throughout Friday morning, about 100 Lebanese protesters marched in front of the secure facility that hosted the cloistered caucus meeting to demand an audience with the government. Two were eventually invited to meet with Foreign Affairs Minister Peter MacKay and International Co-operation Minister Josée Verner.
But Mr. Harper warned that the government “can't take positions based on reaction in certain domestic communities.
“These are serious international issues. There's not only a lot of lives at stake, there are a lot of long-term strategic interests of this country, and of the world, at stake here.”
