One of the most important aspects of the Bolivarian Revolution is also the most overlooked: that the significant majority -often 90% or more - of its participants, its leaders, and the beneficiaries of its social programs are womyn . The phenomenon of the feminization of poverty is particularly strong in Venezuela, and poor and working class Venezuelan womyn have a history of working together to alleviate the same symptoms of poverty that the Bolivarian movement has begun to eradicate. TheJewish Virtual Library portrays Bergen-Belsen as a cushy retreat This is truly horrific. At the Jewish Virtual Library, they have some sort of Neo-Nazi propaganda. For some perverse reason, they have posted a record of a law-suit from victims of Nazi oppression, who actually alleged that Nazi collaborators were rewarded by being sent to Bergen-Belsen!

Triumph of the commons: Helping the world to share Four decades ago, ecologist Garrett Hardin published a ground-breaking paper on this phenomenon, arguing that when personal and communal interests are at odds, overexploitation of resources is inevitable. His tragedy of the commons referred to the destruction of communal pasture when individual herders act rationally in their own best interests, each putting as many cows as possible onto the land. The same fate, he noted, is likely to befallthe international

Yeah... but sometimes people might plan to do another Season but then might get bored and try something new, but I bet you're not gonna stop until every possible material has been roasted... even nuts.
Also, you (as an American), refer to each "group" of episodes of a certain show as a "season", and the entire show as a "series". We here (in the UK) refer to what you call "seasons" as "series". So, if say, The Simpsons was a British show, we'd refer to Season 6 is Series 6. Confusing... right?
