A former CNSS (Sf Sava National College / High School) classmate sent me a link to an article about Horia Constantinescu (curi-interlop), asking me if I remember this guy being in our class. In Romanian, “interlop” is used to mean shady/criminal while in English it means “unwanted, persona non grata”.

Eu am mai scris despre munca si nemunca. Si recent imi pica ochiul de sticla pe articolul lui Alex M, el insusi (articolul) inspirat de un editorial mai vechi de-al lui Plesu.

I recently learned some interesting facts from a follow-up (by a Romanian news outfit) on the “Romanian Government attack” on the corrupt Adamescu family who is “not showing off” and it reminds me of a joke with Ivan, the American Spy.

Desi oficial oamenii care isi cumpara satelit o fac pentru FTA, in realitate investitia si timpul consumat nu prea au sens pentru cateva programe gratis. Motivul real, nedeclarat, este asa-zisa piratare a programelor care fie sunt interzise / inaccesibile pe teritoriul canadian, fie pot fi obtinute numai prin Bell / Starchoice dar costa bani. Iata o scurta analiza a cadrului legal din Canada in care se desfasoara aceasta activitate cu citate din wikipedia si din forumurile romanesti.

Intai a venit cineva din blogroll care-mi tot ingropa articolele pe agregatoarele de stiri cu leapsa cu 7 cantece. P-orma Gogu de la Blogu' lu' Gogu arunca si el leapsa asta in directia mea (1). Si cand 2 iti zic sa canti, apuca-te bade, si scrie!

A friend of mine published an article in medium on communism and entrepreneurship (ana-medium) and Aferim!, a movie a cousin of mine was involved in producing has hit the theatres, and I feel a debt of honour to write about each one. So hard to stay focused and write meaningfully is. 

Unlike most of my Romanian friends, who are angered by the details of the 112/police (EMS) response to Alexandra Macesanu’s increasingly desperate calls, I am far more upset by police colonel, university professor and forensic psychologist Tudorel Badea Butoi-Severin and the inconsequential censure by CNCD following his deeply offensive, misogynistic, victim-blaming comments. I believe that the hostility and inadequacy of the police response is rooted in the attitude that Prof Butoi has expressed and this bigotry is the root cause of police inaction and incompetence.
