FRENCH President Nicholas Sarkozy is a man under pressure. For weeks he has been faced with protests and strikes at home over everything from pension reform to his government's deportation of the Roma people. Now though, it seems, the gypsies have hit back in their own inimitable way - issuing a "blood curse.
A Bulgarian gypsy witch and clairvoyant Zornitsa has claimed that the grim problems now confronting the French president politically and in his private life have been brought upon his head by "Amria", the gravest blood curse, put on him by Romanian and Bulgarian gypsies for their expulsion from France.

The Evangelical conversion of Gypsy groups worldwide has attracted the attention of ethnologists, anthropologists, ethnomusicologists, historians and sociologists. The problems discussed in the literature are connected with the influence of the 'new' religion on the way of life and identity of the converts. What are the changes that the believers undergo in their everyday lives? How do they celebrate holidays and festive occasions like weddings? What is happening with the group and the religious and ethnic self-awareness of individuals? Does Evangelism lead to a kind of unification of the culture of separate Gypsy groups, which in turn results in the loss of part of the identity of the communities? Bulgaria is an interesting example of the spread of Evangelical Christianity among Gypsy ...

'I've sold my television. I'm sleeping on a mattress on my kitchen floor," one woman told the camera. "I don't know where I'm going to find the rent," the other said. "I'm frightened.'
They were two middle-aged, middle-class New Yorkers facing life after redundancy in a society that has introduced Workfare in place of Welfare. Canada has a similar policy, as do Australia and the Netherlands. What was hailed as a success when jobs were plentiful has its critics now.
...Hopefully we never will be. The state we live in provides a safety net to hold us above ...

The Scottish imprint on Montreal is unmistakable; it is everywhere. The civic coat of arms has a thistle on it. The financial district rings to the names of the Scottish businessmen - Angus, Ballantyne, Cameron, McGill, Torrance, McTavish - who turned this fur trading station on the St Lawrence River into one of the great cities of the world. You wonder what Scotland might have been like today had these capitalist adventurers never left.
However, the official language here is not Scots but French, and the politics of the province have been dominated for the past 35 years by attempts by the Parti Quebecois to turn Quebec into an independent francophone state, to leave the Canadian Federation that was itself founded by a bibulous Glaswegian, John A MacDonald, in 1867.
