Insects using plants as telephones
A team of Dutch ecologists has found that subterranean and aboveground herbivorous insects use plants to communicate. 'Subterranean insects issue chemical warning signals via the leaves of the plant. This way, aboveground insects are alerted that the plant is already occupied.' This means that by using 'green telephone lines,' the two kinds of insects can avoid to compete for the same plant, allowing for faster growth for both species.

Albania the cheapest country in the Balkans
Over the last decade property in the Balkan Peninsula has become something of a magnet for overseas investors who have spotted the future potential of investing into its property markets at a very early stage. While markets such as Bulgaria, Croatia and Slovenia have become runaway success stories, there still remains a great deal of money to be the region in their neighbouring countries of Albania, Montenegro, Macedonia, Bosnia & Serbia where prices of commodities and service costs lag behind those of their rapidly increasing counterparts, a positive indicator of future growth to come.

Colonel Momir Stojanovic the master mind of the MEJE Massacre
during the informal 23 April 1999 meeting, Stojanovic allegedly told Sreto Camovic, chief of the local State Security Department (RDB), and four other military and police officials that at least 100 ethnic Albanians must be eliminated
Meje on 27 April 1999 ( 9 Years Later )
They were killed by Serb forces on April 1999, and were exhumed from a mass grave in Batajnica near Belgrade.
A mass grave of 500 had been discovered in Serbia and, after forensic DNA checks carried out by Scotland Yard, the bodies are being returned to Kosova in groups of 30 or 50 at a time.
Witnesses who testified at The Hague said Stojanovic had ordered the massacre in Meje in Gjakove [Djakovica] on 27 April 1999.
The largest known mass killing, at Meja on April 27. Sebastian Junger describes the grim events:
Shortly before dawn ... according to locals, a large contingent of Yugoslav army troops garrisoned in Junik started moving eastward through the valley, dragging men from their houses and pushing them into trucks. "Go to Albania!" they screamed at the women before driving on to the next town with their prisoners. By the time they got to Meja they had collected as many as 300 men. The regular army took up positions around the town while the militia and paramilitaries went through the houses grabbing the last few villagers and shoving them out into the road. The men were surrounded by fields most of them had worked in their whole lives, and they could look up and see mountains they'd admired since they were children. Around noon the first group was led to the compost heap, gunned down, and burned under piles of cornhusks. A few minutes later a group of about 70 were forced to lie down in three neat rows and were machine-gunned in the back. The rest -- about 35 men -- were taken to a farmhouse along the Gjakove [Djakovica] road, pushed into one of the rooms, and then shot through the windows at point-blank range. The militiamen who did this then stepped inside, finished them off with shots to the head, and burned the house down. They walked away singing.
