kilka zdań b. trudnych
Proszę może ktoś mi pomoże przetłumaczyć ten kawałek tekstu bo niby ze
słownikiem w ręku dałam radę ale niektórych zdań nie jestem pewna, jakieś
dziwne mi się wydają. Bardzo proszę o pomoc.
In the fall of 2007 it began to approach the$ 100 a barrel mark. The reasons
for the surge ranged from the relntless growth of the ecomomies of China and
India to widespread instability in
oil-producing regions including Iraq and
Nigeras delta region. The prospect of triple-digit
oil prices has redrawn the
economic and political map of the world, challenging some old nations of
power.
Oil-rich nations are enjoying historic gains and opportunities, while
major importers- including Cina and India, home to a third of the world's
population-confront rising economic and social costs. Managing this new order
is becoming a central problem of global politics.Countries that need
oil are
clawing at each other to lock up scarce supplies, and are willing to deal with
any governments, no matter how unsavory, to do it.

War needs good PR
War Needs Good Public Relations
By Norman Solomon
For some people, war is terror, disaster and death. For others, it's a PR
problem.
At the Rendon Group, a public-relations firm with offices in Boston and
Washington, pleasant news arrived the other day with a $397,000 contract to
help the Pentagon look good while bombing Afghanistan. The four-month deal
includes an option to renew through most of 2002.
This is a job for savvy PR pros who know how to sound humanistic. "At the
Rendon Group, we believe in people," says the company's mission statement,
which expresses "our admiration and respect for cultural diversity" and
proclaims a commitment to "helping people win in the global marketplace."
A media officer at the Pentagon explained why Rendon got the contract. "We
needed a firm that could provide strategic counsel immediately," Lt. Col.
Kenneth McClellan said. "We were interested in someone that we knew could come
in quickly and help us orient to the challenge of communicating to a wide range
of groups around the world."
As a PR outfit, Rendon has moved in some powerful economic circles, with
clients including official trade agencies of the United States, Bulgaria,
Russia and Uzbekistan. In Washington, the firm helped organize a series of
conferences on "post-privatization management in the global telecommunications,
electric
power,
oil and gas, banking and finance, and transportation sectors."
Some of the clientele has been more liberal or touchy-feely: Handgun Control
Inc. and the American Massage Therapy Association.
Rendon proudly notes that it provided "community and media relations counsel to
the Monsanto Chemical Company in its effort to clean up several contaminated
sites." Overseas, Rendon helped the Kuwait Petroleum Corporation to cope with
labor strife and bad press when closing a refinery in Naples, Italy.
Some clients have been more shadowy. Rendon worked for the government of Kuwait
in the early 1990s. And the firm made a lot of money by contracting with the
CIA to do media work for the Iraqi National Congress, an organization seeking
the overthrow of Saddam Hussein.
Now, the Rendon Group is facing what is perhaps its most challenging project
yet
