FÖRLORARE. Enligt LO:s utredaren Dan Andersson håller Sverige på att bli ett fattigsamhälle där särskilt unga och kvinnor har det ekonomiskt svårt.
Ny studie: De har sämre ekonomi än män
Ensamstående män klarar sig betydligt bättre ekonomiskt än singelkvinnor.
De har haft dubbelt så hög standardutveckling under åren 1995–2006.
Det visar en ny studie från LO som presenteras på Dagens Nyheters debattsida av LO:s chef-ekonom Dan Andersson.
LO har på uppdrag av Mona Sahlin studerat utvecklingen av inkomstfördelningen i Sverige under perioden.
Enligt utredaren Dan Andersson håller Sverige på att bli ett fattigsamhälle där särskilt unga och kvinnor har det ekonomiskt svårt. Däremot är det en felaktig bild att det allmänt går sämre för ungdomar med rötter utomlands.(TT)
Kommunikation! är min rekommendation, om du verkligen vill veta om nån delar din vision. Tron på att språket har en funktion, är tron att man måste våga ta ton. Om en situation ska kunna vända måste människan få veta att hon inte är den enda som tycker så. Tycker på nått annat. Etik och moral, inte samvetskval. Vill man nå i mål får man välja kanal, men har du hittat den när du röstar i val? Dina ideal når fan inte fram igenom förskrivna tal, klädande program. Om vårt minne är kort, kan vår ångest gå bort. Om vi blundar hårt kan vi hålla vårt fort. Man kan helt stänga av om man är nitisk, man kan må ganska bra om man vägrar va kritisk. Svårt och blunda om man en gång har sett. Svår att koppla bort om det en gång har skett. En insikt om sakernas tillstånd kan inte tystas så lätt nej nej nej nej.
Språkets funktion kan ha bråkets funktion. Ja gnola på den som plågar. Språkets funktion kan ha bråkets funktion. Ja gnola på den som vågar.
Hallå hallå, hon har nått viktigt att säga! Hallå hallå så lyssna på Leia! Kräv makt och få sagt va man vill, samla ord samla mod och stå still, vänta in ögonblicket. Visa dom tricket, med texten, med talet. När allting är galet, du ska stå för det du gör, säga viktiga grejer. Förstå vad du gör. Sitter hemma gnäller, skäller, tystnar när det gäller, ställer krav, du kan va den som skriker, stänger av. När allting är fel, vi är en del i det som händer, du kan va den som vänder. Dumhet till insikt. skit till nått viktigt. Fobi, antagoni, och apati. Det kreativa kliv, du väjer hur ditt liv ska ta form. Ordets makt är enorm så ta tag i din del. Låt dig aldrig tystas, om de gör det har de fel. Vinglande maktmän, vill fan inte vara deras polare. Tala är guld, tiga är bull för en golare. Men generellt, farlighet, byggt av dom som inte älskar oss. Vår verklighet, i en värld skapad utav dom, verkar deras makt logisk, så det är logiskt att du är frågvis. Vi gör som dom vill, vi gör exakt som dom vill. Och om du inte sagt till är deras makt i bild. Ja de vill ha en akt till efter deras slaktidyll och låt oss skillja på rätt och fel.
Avancerad teknik, för att kommunicera. Få fram din kritik våga ravalisera, konkretisera. Tänker precisera. om tanken är god kan den attrahera flera. De har ett tungomål, ger dej lungor av stål. Orden. Om vi kunde ta tillbaks. De har ett tungomål, ger dej lungor av stål. Så fatta, förstå, fatta, fatta, förstå. Vi måste äga orden, måste väga orden, måste vägra morden, säg orden. På jorden är vi syster och broder. Kärlek man, det rinner floder. Våra ord är som frö i din jord. våra ord.
Vinglande maktmän, vill fan inte vara deras polare.
This is just wonderful. Can you guess why I like Red Hot Chili Peppers as much as I do apart from their music? If you don't, take a look att his. I love when people get silly just have fun with no thoughts of "how would this look?" or "I'm too old to...".
"Tyvärr är inte Du en av dem som vi valt ut till en första intervjuomgång. Du kan dock bli aktuell om vi väljer att kalla ytterligare personer. Antalet sökande till tjänsten är 229 stycken."
I just received another response to an job application. I didn't get it. I was 1 of 395 who applied for the single post. 1 of 395 = 0,25 % chance of getting the job. You can imagine how good that feels as a well educated and ambitious person who think the tasks for that job would suit me. As far as I know, there are 50-400 applicants for each job I apply for. I just wish someone would give me a chance, I wouldn't dissapoint them.
Then there are a lot of people who thinks that unemployed people "just have to work harder" and that tey are lazy and just like to receive benefits. Yes, I am one of these no-good-people in the lower socio economic class.... Yeah, right. It pisses me off that so many people are so narrow minded who are quick to judge people they don't know and don't WANT to know.
If it is this hard for me as a well adjusted, ambitious, primarily Swedish person from the middle class with 100 % supporting parents and who was brought up in a calm and good place to get a relevant job (or any job for that matter, cleaning firms don't want me even if I have plenty of experience)....why would a person without these privileged things do better? Then to blame them for being lazy and bad people...wow, that is *******.
"Nu har ansökningstiden för anställningarna som kvalificerade handläggare på avdelningen för bedömning av utländsk högre utbildning, reg. nr xxx, gått ut.
Vi har fått mycket positiv respons på annonsen. Vi har fått in 395 ansökningar av mycket hög kvalitet - något som gläder oss mycket. Vi har nu gjort ett första urval och kallat tio personer till intervju. Med många kvalificerade kandidater måste vi tyvärr meddela att vi denna gång inte har möjlighet att gå vidare med din ansökan. Vi vill ändå passa på att tacka dig för det intresse du visat för Högskoleverket genom din ansökan!"
by Disturbed. Yes, violence is my fetish. Nää...just kidding. Hardly but I do like this song. There is a lot of energy and if I had been in a bad mood (I'm actually in a quite good mood right now) it had been even better.
by Candlebox Read the text that is shown during the video. You might learn a thing or two and hopefully it gives a lot more thoughts. I've never head of this group until this weekend and the tip came from an unexpected source. As you can see in, I've labeled this post with politics, environment, music AND human rights. The reason for that is that problems in the environment is clear human rights problem.
1 year has passed. I remember this day one year ago much better than I wish I did.
This song has been my favorite song since 1998. There is one sentence in it that I try to learn from and try to keep in mind if/when I get into a situation that reminds me of a previous one. I haven't been in a situation like that that I was a year ago again but it is a day that I hope not have to relive.
Do you want to know where you stand on the political scale? Hereis an interesting test you can do that doesn't require you to give away any personal info and is not stored, it just shows how far you stand up and down and from side to side.
by Tingsek. Oh, what a melody and voice... And, I did get inspired and I am glad, but it has had its price. One of my mothers sayings is that "there is nothing bad that doesn't bring anything positive". It brought me a sence of hope even though it is the very thing that I don't have much of right now.
Oh, how I love to be around this particular face I found No stress at all would waste our time Nobody's letting anybody down, it's a world of it's own in here We get to do what we decide to
Oh, how I love to be around this particular face I found So full of life and possibly the most positive fields of energy It's a world of it's own in here, we get to love each other deeply
Just a couple of years ago, I hooked up with some people I just knew would know How to live their lifes clearly based on themselves I'm so lucky we get to inspire each other I'm so glad we got together My whole world was falling apart
These are the most common female and male names in Sweden and I trust in those who has compiled this list since they really are common names.
1. Maria ----------------1. Erik 2. Anna -----------------2. Lars 3. Margareta -----------3. Karl 4. Elisabeth -------------4. Anders 5. Eva ------------------5. Per 6. Birgitta --------------6. Johan 7. Kristina --------------7. Nils 8. Karin ----------------8. Lennart 9. Elisabet --------------9. Jan 10. Marie --------------10. Hans
...because, how many of you Swedes out there don't know at least one person with each name? They are nice names but I am more the "Leia type" of future parent... I like a bit more differnt kind of names. You see, I wasn't even called "Natasja" until about 9 years ago.
"Kjell är ett mansnamn med gammalt nordiskt ursprung. Det tog på 1600-talet överhanden över den äldre namnformen Kættil eller Kettil som förmodligen betyder hjälm. Det är i princip samma ord som dagens kittel (och engelska eng. kettle). Kjell var ett modenamn på 1940-talet 1940- och 1950-talet 1950-talen och är fortfarande totalt sett ett av de vanligare svenska mansnamnen. Det är dock idag mycket ovanligt som tilltalsnamn för nyfödda pojkar. Det inte bara män som heter Kjell i Norge. Våra rara grannar döper faktiskt även kvinnor till detta fabulösa namn! Kanske inte riktigt, men vad sägs om Kjellaug, Kjellbjørg, Kjellfrid och Kjellrun? Får ni en dotter så bör ni ha detta i åtanke. Andra lustiga norska mansvariationer är Askjell, Grimkjell, Kjellbjørn och Torkjell. Namnsdag: 8 juli (sedan 1901) Kjell är även ett efternamn i Sverige." Källa: Svenska Wikipedia

A hungry man is an angry man - A person who does not get what he wants or needs is a frustrated person and will be easily provoked to rage.
I can vouch for this too. I've been in that situation too many times. I don't believe that it can go on for too long without any consequences. What can I say, some things are necessary for some even if not all feel the same. So, to deny a necessity also has to be followed by an understanding of what will happen as an effect. There is only so much a person can take.
The question is whether they have been abroad this year... Anneli: -No, or I have been to Denmark and participated in a swimming competition in of it self.
Hehe...what she is saying is that Denmark doesn't feel like abroad since it is just across the sound :-) I agree.
Too many people doing the same thing at the same time will not be successful
I can vouch for that. How much more simple and easy thing become when there are not too many people involved. I feel at ease even if a soup is kind of tasty.
During my second trip to Stockholm in October (Amnesty business), I went out with some newly found friends. We went to bars/discos but the was this final place, Mosebacke, that I really liked. The guy you see here was one of the DJs, shaking it to the music. Unfortunately we arrived just about an hour before it closed but I'd loved to have stayed longer. It wasn't only the good music and atmosphere that attracted me but also the people there, people from everywhere, or so it seemed. So unlike the places I usually go to here in the south, but on the other hand, I have probably never been in a more Swedish surroundings as at least the last years (I usually call myself my friends multicultural element, which says something about where they come from). I can ad that the people I was there with were originally from Sri Lanka and Iran.
For the first time today :-) A guy at work shares my special liking in melodic heavy metal and now he asked ME for tips about newer heavy metal bands. That never happens, I'm always the one seeking other people's advice for new music. It's mainly my brother, brother in law and Christian (who often also is my brother's informant) who gives me new input. I played this song, "Believe" by Disturbed for the guy at work and he liked it, just as I thought he would. I think that even people like my parents could listen to this without thinking it is too heavy. It it quite melodic, just like I like it. And...I looked up the lyrics and they are interesting, especially what I marked in another colour.
"Believe"
Believe, when you lie You will never need to recognize yourself To deceive To remove all chance of doubt and be received With your lie The deception is complete when you concede And decide To reject your lives, sacrificed to me Penance can't absolve your sin, into me Penance can't absolve your sin All your belief cannot absolve your sin Believe, when you lie You will never need to recognize the source Of deceit To renew your faith in God You must believe, in your lie The redemption is complete when you conceive And decline To release your lives Sacrificed to me Reap your life, like you want to recognize, all you've come to Reap your life Veiled in shadow Recognize Faces of the crucified I can hear their screams tonight Ever haunting me Burn your lie into me
If you are interested in the discussion about the meaning of this song, I'd recommend you to read here. Who said that heavy metal is just mindless or even evil junk?
There is a promise of eternal life if one believe in God etc. but I can't help wonder why eternal life for the soul is worth striving for*? Is there an intrinsic** value of having an eternal life, whatever that might include?
What would you say if I say that I would like to live forever here on earth? That I would do all the necessary things to be able to do that. That it has nothing to do with another person.
I can understand why people would like avoid going to hell (doesn't sound very pleasant) but I don't see why it would be innately*** GOOD to have an eternal life in heaven compared to be buried in the ground and be a part of the nature, part of new life...ashes to ashes, dust to dust, right?
To be really honest, the main sentiment I get when I think of people who strive to have eternal life is that they are quite egoistic! What happened to be good because it is good and spread the possibilities for fellow human beings to have a good life free from as much pain and suffering as possible? Is it all about me, me, me? Is that the reason to follow the (religious) rules and guidelines? If one try to do good deeds with any thoughts like "I do this because God likes it and it will give me eternal life", I can only be greatfull for the effect, not the intention and not the person him/herself.
I am well aware that doing unselfish things makes you feel good, but I don't believe that it is a lasting feeling (compared to get eternal life) and therefore not the goal of feeling good for one's own sake.
Is the striving for eternal life based on fear of dying, fear of the unknown?
"There are more than 600 million small arms and light weapons in the world today, and over eight million more are produced every year. Unless governments act to stop the spread of arms, more lives will be lost, more human rights violations will take place, and more people will be denied the chance to escape poverty." Oxfam
Now
"Today 147 states at the United Nations voted overwhelmingly to move forward with work on an Arms Trade Treaty. This is an increase on the 139 states who voted to start the UN process in October 2006, showing increasing global support for the treaty. The vote was particularly strong in Africa, South and Central America and Europe indicating strong demand for arms control both from countries severely affected by armed violence and from major exporters. Only the US and Zimbabwe voted against, ignoring increasing global consensus for an ATT.
Every day, over 1000 people are killed directly with firearms and many thousands more die indirectly as a consequence of armed violence or are driven from their homes, forced off their land, raped, tortured or maimed. Since the UN process started in December 2006, approximately 695,000 people have been killed directly with firearms, illustrating the urgent need for an Arms Trade Treaty. Any further delay means more lost lives."
