Imboldit de Calin Hera, m-am gandit sa fac si eu un top al celor mai tari 10 filme romanesti. Si cum eu ma uit in principal la filme strainesti, pentru mine "tari" in context inseamna "reprezentative", mai precis filme care-mi amintesc de Romania.

Today’s the last day of Iceland’s Airwaves, which I haven’t attended or written about, but you can check out the soon-to-disappear Soma FM’s own radio station. Yet today’s broadcast, boys and girls, is about something completely different. Back in 2007, when it started as a Canada-only contest, nobody could have predicted that Red Bull Thre3style (#RB3style) would grow into the largest DJ competition on the planet. This year there's a Romanian among them: DJ Undoo.

Dupa ce mai demult scriam despre lansarea unei sectiuni romanesti a New York Times Book Review, aflu ca libraria Carturesti este lansata in New York. Desigur ca ma bucur si de bucurie ma mai uit la cateva reflectii ale Romaniei in presa straina.

Am vazut recent pe blogul Simonei Tache o invitatie catre mini-bloggeri de a povesti despre bunici si m-am gandit s-o reproduc aici pentru alti pitici.

A few weeks ago we celebrated 30 years (10x3 years, man!). A lot of documentaries and retrospectives and I hardly kept up with them. But I did watch a few and learned (or refreshed my memory with) facts I either did not know or had forgotten. I will first list, and then, time-permitting, summarize them.

Problemele cu care se confrunta industria automobilelor peste tot in lume si in special in USA sunt bine-cunoscute. Dar ultimele cateva zile au adus cateva importante stiri noi: Frank Stronach, miliardarul canadian care a creat Magna, cumpara bucatile europene de GM din Europa si Ion Pacepa, generalul de securitate fugit in State isi da cu parerea despre ce se intampla in industria automobilelor. Si cum opiniile / actiunile lor par oarecum contradictorii, nu poat decat sa ma intreb: E Frank Stronach prostanach sau Pacepa dus cu EBa?

Azi s-or intamplatara doua lucruri ciudat de interesante, care merita - zic eu - pomenite. Si parca nu-mi vine sa fac un articol separat din asta, sau pentru fiecare.

I’ve just read a piece of news that angered me a great deal as it smelled fake, but as I looked into it, I did not find the clear rebuttal I expected. It’s based on an obscure survey question that had not been reported in the media and now is fodder for fake news sites. The title is based on an 80s Italian song which roughly means “rogue nostalgia”, combined with the Romanian spelling of the word that stands for “rogue”, which, in the latter language stands for an insult, meaning “scoundrel, villain, miscreant”. 

Pe Karl il aveam intr-o vreme in Blogroll si el pe mine. Apoi el a divortat unilateral. Dar eu continui sa-l citesc si azi am decis chiar sa-l citez.

Exista multi oameni care-i urasc pe masoni si (franc)masoneria. Daca-i intrebi de ce, nu prea stiu sa-ti spuna, dar dupa o conversatie mai mult sau mai putin indelungata, reiese ca-i din cauza ca nu stiu multe despre ei.

Azi e ziua patriei, dar cum ii spuneam lui Krossfire intr-un comentariu, prefer o zi rationala uneia nationale. Oricum, el explica tare bine cam tot ce-i de explicat, iar eu n-as putea decat sa repet urarea veche. Continui aici discutia emotie vs. logica, inceputa in prima parte cu Colbert si Adeveria.

A trecut ceva timp de la ultima sesiune tlon si simteam o oarecare lipsa / absenta / angoasa... Aici este inca Duminica dar in Ro este deja Luni – de-aici si decalajul intre ziua publicarii pe acest blog si celelalte 14.

Perceptia mea despre acest cult este formata in cea mai mare parte de realitatea canadiana. Cum cea romaneasca este probabil diferita, o trecem in revi-blog.
