Private Universities in Portugal

At the entrance to Universidade Lusófona (Lisbon) there is a large bronze map highlighting Portugal and the Portuguese colonies, now the so called PALOP's, all joined in the dysfunctional CPLP "community".

It is interesting to see that these highly "qualified" professors cannot tell Britain and Madagascar apart.

Would you hire anyone who has graduated from this so-called university?

The images are self explanatory:

Hummm.... something moved next to Ireland... and it is not Britain?

(big parties in Dublin by now, I guess...)

Now, what is that island on the South Eastern coast of Africa, just to the left of Mozambique?

These people also run in Portugal the GMAT, GRE and TOEFL tests, used by prospective students to US and British universities....

Makes you feel extra confident...

Treaty of Lisbon becomes Law in 2 weeks

Lisbon Treaty signature - Jeronimos monastery cloister

The Czech Republic deposited in Rome on November 2009 its instrument of ratification. The Czech Republic becomes the final member-state of the European Union to ratify the Treaty of Lisbon. It will now become law on December 1st.

Good luck Europe!

After the less than dignified ratification process, we wish that fudged national accounts, subservience to Washington and lack of centralized power will be surmountable obstacles.
