As home seat of the European Commission, Brussels is unofficially the capital of Europe. Although the European Union does not have an official capital and the European parliament meets in Strasbourg, many of the EU’s primary functions take place in Brussels. The effect of locating so much business here has had a tremendous impact on Brussels; with the EU has come prosperity with a cosmopolitan air. One of the highlights of a visit to Brussels is food; indeed, it is a little-known gastronomic dParliament speaker favourite to become prime minister: Belgian media - World news

Pieter pulled through and got these supporters cards whipped up for me with only a few days notice. Thanks Pieter, if you are in Belgium and looking to get your supporters cards made shoot him an email. Not so detailed (no sponsor images, etc.) and single sided. He did a kick ass job working with limited resources and a timeline! Thanks again! Another HUGE shout out to Joe Sales. I should have gotten these done months ago. Thanks for the image Joe.

Woke up early (surprisingly), got breakfast and ventured onto the Brussels Metro to make our way out to the outskirts of town and visit The Atomium and Mini-Europe. We thought we’d only be about an hour but we ended up staying most of the day. There will be many pictures to see after I get back home and process them. The Atomium is really cool to see. It looks like one of the aliens from War Of The Worlds or something. Quite a site. After returning back to the hotel we re-combobulated anPage notified of missed test
Former U.S. cyclocross champion Jonathan Page has been notified that he missed an anti-doping test at the World Cup at Koksijde, Belgium, on November 29. UCI anti-doping officials have forwarded a report of the missed test to the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency for review. UCI anti-doping coordinator Peter Van den Abeele told the Belgian website Sport.be that Page failed to appear for a drug test despite being notified that he had been randomly selected. Page, however, said that he had not heard ... reaThe American Trinity

On December 21, 2008, I invited people to look at the five countries where abortion is both legal and much rarer than in the United States. It was my hope that people of good will on both sides of the abortion issue could identify some key traits in these low abortion countries that we might be able to use here at home. As of this writing, no one has taken me up on my offer. So I’m postponing any further structured discussion of this issue until I get some responses that address that post or untit is melting

Fascism in Italy got its ass kicked in WW II. In fact, unlike German fascism that took the combined efforts of the US, Great Britain and the Soviet Union to defeat, Italian fascists were even fought to a standstill by the Greeks in WW II and had to have their sorry asses saved by the Germans. But even today there are Italian losers who are so scared of anyone different from themselves that they follow the failed, stupid and loser ideology of Mussolini. Their latest cause seems to have some re |
