The biggest protest was organized in Romania's capital of Bucharest, where the civilians clashed with the police officers. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Several people were injured as a result of the violent turnoff. The protests in Bucharest began at mid-day and continued until late in the evening. The civilians set on fire some of the main streets of Bucharest, destroyed the fences, flung stones and bricks and clashed with the police officers. One of the protesters was burning. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The people demand the resignation of president Traian Basescu who has previously approved a new health care regulation. He has given up lately his decision but the demonstrations didn’t end. The people will continue their rally tomorrow. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-1PqDkkoQ7Bk/TxMkkrxxe-I/AAAAAAAAAro/pXW2vWFGSEc/s1600/CIMG0386.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear:left; float:left;margin-right:1em; margin-bottom:1em"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" width="320" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-1PqDkkoQ7Bk/TxMkkrxxe-I/AAAAAAAAAro/pXW2vWFGSEc/s320/CIMG0386.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;In Iasi, the second largest city of Romania, hundreds of people rallied in front of the prefecture. Here the demonstrations were peaceful and carefully monitored by the police officers. The people chanted messages such as “Down with the government!” “Traian Basescu – resign!” and others.

It is a perfect way for the students to gain experience while still attending the university. They can mix the theoretical knowledge with the practical approach in a comprehensive manner. An internship can be from a couple of weeks to a couple of months, though the time is determined on both the company and the student's abilities to please their potential employer. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These internships can be paid or unpaid. Frankly, most of the companies prefer to tell the students that they’re not going to pay a dime for the work they do. It’s a way of cutting costs, lessening the employees’ responsibilities and taking full advantage of an unpaid human resource in a perfectly legal manner. This is a win-win situation only if the intern actually learns something through training, workshops and practical work the business gives them to do. Unfortunately, many students are improperly used and waste their time and resources while doing nothing more than photocopying papers and making coffee. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The length of the internship should be approached to the needs of the applicant and the field he/she works in. It’s illogical to spend only a couple of days in a department, because one cannot fully understand the tasks the bureau has to deal with in such a short amount of time. Some colleges don’t quite grasp the concept that it takes a typical student more than a few days to thoroughly learn what is expected of them. The universities often require their students at the end of the year to do only a two-week internship. Sometimes it is even difficult to find a company to do your internship. The competition is quite high considering the fact that the unemployment rate is growing from year-to-year in most of the countries of the world. Most students are hoping to be hired after doing the internship, being the only solution to find a job during an economic crisis. The success of each applicant depends on how skillful he/she is, what theoretical background they may or may not have and what previous experience they possess. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So I ask you... Are the internships programs the ideal way for grabbing a well-paid job during a recession period?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;Picture courtesy: glassdoor.com&lt;/i&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-2186486552945630649?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/2186486552945630649/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=2186486552945630649' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/2186486552945630649'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/2186486552945630649'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2011/12/interships-have-become-popular-way-to.html' title='Interships Have Become a Popular Way to Find the Dream Job'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-pXZxDHH7m9A/TuvJ19kdmsI/AAAAAAAAArQ/sfm0ccUDISs/s72-c/intern.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-5575508374832694103</id><published>2011-12-14T22:04:00.001+02:00</published><updated>2011-12-14T22:04:52.425+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Colinda a ajuns in caminele studentesti din Iasi</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-1Et8xjn-ycg/TukBFwUo2hI/AAAAAAAAArE/gp0MVptAetQ/s1600/CIMG0178.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear:left; float:left;margin-right:1em; margin-bottom:1em"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" width="320" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-1Et8xjn-ycg/TukBFwUo2hI/AAAAAAAAArE/gp0MVptAetQ/s320/CIMG0178.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Chiar dacă fulgii de nea nu ne-au răcit încă obrajii sau nu au scârțâit sub picioare, sărbătorile de iarnă sunt aproape.

Un grup de tineri de la Asociația Studenților Creștin Ortodocși Români (ASCOR) au colindat fiecare cămin al Universității „Alexandru Ioan Cuza”. A devenit deja o tradiție ca an de an, ASCOR să vestească nașterea Domnului prin cântecele lor de Crăciun tuturor studenților.

He is pleased with his job; working eight hours a day and receiving a steady income. But he had to leave his country to find this job. He has worked in Rome, Italy since 2008. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Ak11tbHu598/TrFxTUtnqqI/AAAAAAAAAqo/c9TM0jwtm8k/s1600/Picture%2B2.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Ak11tbHu598/TrFxTUtnqqI/AAAAAAAAAqo/c9TM0jwtm8k/s320/Picture%2B2.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;“I decided to leave Moldova because I didn’t have a job. I also wanted to have a beautiful future as others do,” says Stropsa. Despite his satisfaction to have a full-time job, not everything is perfect. “I miss my parents, my nephews and my motherland,” says wistful Igor, whose sister is working in northern Italy. Although his sister resides in the same country as he does, they don’t get to see each other very often. The most difficult problem Igor is facing is that he has not seen his relatives for three years now. His family is unable to visit him due to the necessity of a visa and the overwhelming requirements to get it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thousands of Moldovans are forced to leave the country to find work, due to lack of jobs and low earnings. After graduation, many students choose to leave the Republic of Moldova behind and go to work for well paying companies in other countries. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Being described by the international community as the ‘poorest country of Europe’, the Republic of Moldova has the lowest salaries on the continent, which can barely cover the basic daily needs. The salaries vary from tens of dollars to a couple hundred of dollars a month. A nurse would normally earn up to $170 a month if she has previous experience, while a recent graduate in social studies earns $70 a month. The lack of experience of the new alumni negatively hurts their employment chances, because most employers want specialists with at least 2-3 years of previous experience. As a result, the Moldovan universities prepare jobless citizens on a broad scale which have low chance to find a job upon graduation. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The dissolution of the Soviet Union has had a strong impact on the Moldovan economy. Being eager to establish a democracy ruled by its own nation, the new government, which was installed after 1991 wasn’t able to efficiently manage the state’s budget, struggling with deep poverty among the people living in the countryside. Inefficient task and resource management led to the current economic deadlock. The Value Added Tax in Moldova is 20%. The high contribution to the state budget frustrates the Moldovans because they don’t receive much in return. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ion Cecan, 75, has been retired for several years now and is totally dissatisfied by the government. His monthly allowance does not exceed $70 after working for 40 years as a driver in the Soviet times and thereafter. At his age, he works as a security guard at a parking lot on a night shift. “I can barely pay my bills; I have to turn off the light to save money,” says Cecan who lives in Moldova’s capital, Chisinau. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Ox12aSmKXt0/TrFwniHTK4I/AAAAAAAAAqc/b9WMHnaZ4SY/s1600/Picture%2B3.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Ox12aSmKXt0/TrFwniHTK4I/AAAAAAAAAqc/b9WMHnaZ4SY/s320/Picture%2B3.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Currently in her 60s, Tamara Popa has waiting in line for four hours at the Romanian Consulate to apply for Romanian citizenship. The Romanian passport offers the possibility to freely travel within the European Union zone. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“I have applied for the Romanian citizenship to be able to travel to Italy to take care of my grandchildren,” explains Popa. This will be Popa’s first trip outside of Moldova. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“My son and daughter live and work abroad. My daughter has been living in Verona, Italy for six years already. She comes home once a year,” says Popa. She states that she has never visited her children because she doesn’t hold a visa or a Romanian passport. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“My daughter’s paycheck in Italy is about 900 Euro ($1,215),” adds the 60 years old woman, who complains that her retirement pension is equal only to 550 Moldovan Lei ($46). “I could barely afford a trip to this city to apply for the Romanian citizenship,” says Tamara Popa.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are 154,000 Moldovans who live and work legally in Italy, although the Moldovan Embassy in Rome estimates that there are another 50,000 Moldovan citizens living in Italy who are not registered with the local authorities. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“For a salary of 1,000 Lei a month ($84) I’m not going to return to Moldova,” says Iurie Doljencov, 27, who works in Torino, Italy. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Massive numbers of Moldovans apply for Romanian citizenship, which enables them permission to travel and work without visas within the EU. According to the National Authority for Citizenship, directed by the Romanian Ministry of Justice, more than 51,500 requests were made by Moldovan citizens from the beginning of the year until now; over 47,000 were approved from the applications sent during 2010. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-gNcq9hn9TZU/TrFwntqtc5I/AAAAAAAAAqQ/WOExycJOeXM/s1600/Picture%2B1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-gNcq9hn9TZU/TrFwntqtc5I/AAAAAAAAAqQ/WOExycJOeXM/s320/Picture%2B1.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The National Employment Agency in Moldova states in a report that during the past years, there can be observed a regression in the number of inhabitants residing and working in Moldova, especially of those able to work. According to the report, the people who are affected by unemployment include the disabled, the youth and especially those living in the countryside.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;According to the National Bureau of Statistics, the unemployment rate for the first two quarters has showed that 7.8% of the people were jobless, compared with 4.77% of their neighbors in Romania, according to the data provided by the Ministry of Labor, Family and Social Protection. &lt;br /&gt;In order to escape the tough economy, many Moldovans are forced to leave their children behind and find a job in other countries. Russia, Italy, Portugal, Spain and Turkey are among the most preferred working environments for the Moldovans. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;According to the official data provided by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and European Integration, more than 332,000 Moldovans reside legally in countries other than Moldova, while the real number, which includes those working illegally, may exceed a half million.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;Written by Valeriu Gonta&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-51538258556893133?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/51538258556893133/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=51538258556893133' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/51538258556893133'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/51538258556893133'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2011/11/struggling-with-economic-crisis.html' title='Struggling with the Economic Crisis, the Moldovans Give Up Their Homeland'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Ak11tbHu598/TrFxTUtnqqI/AAAAAAAAAqo/c9TM0jwtm8k/s72-c/Picture%2B2.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-1038014502752376025</id><published>2011-10-17T21:21:00.001+03:00</published><updated>2011-10-17T21:24:43.565+03:00</updated><title type='text'>Diplomația americană și cuvintele care pot schimba sensul lucrurilor</title><content type='html'>&lt;object width="420" height="245" id="msnbc1f4041" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=10,0,0,0"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/32545640" /&gt;&lt;param name="FlashVars" value="launch=44927989&amp;amp;width=420&amp;amp;height=245" /&gt;&lt;param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always" /&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /&gt;&lt;param name="wmode" value="transparent" /&gt;&lt;embed name="msnbc1f4041" src="http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/32545640" width="420" height="245" FlashVars="launch=44927989&amp;amp;width=420&amp;amp;height=245" allowscriptaccess="always" allowFullScreen="true" wmode="transparent" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;p style="font-size:11px; font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #999; margin-top: 5px; background: transparent; text-align: center; width: 420px;"&gt;Visit msnbc.com for &lt;a style="text-decoration:none !important; border-bottom: 1px dotted #999 !important; font-weight:normal !important; height: 13px; color:#5799DB !important;" href="http://www.msnbc.msn.com"&gt;breaking news&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/3032507" style="text-decoration:none !important; border-bottom: 1px dotted #999 !important; font-weight:normal !important; height: 13px; color:#5799DB !important;"&gt;world news&lt;/a&gt;, and &lt;a href="http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/3032072" style="text-decoration:none !important; border-bottom: 1px dotted #999 !important; font-weight:normal !important; height: 13px; color:#5799DB !important;"&gt;news about the economy&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;La cei 64 de ani ai săi, Hillary Rodham Clinton este o persoană de succes. De profesie avocat, Clinton a devenit Secretarul de Stat al SUA în administrația lui Barack Obama. Soția fostului președinte Bill Clinton a reușit să se implice profund în politică chiar și în timpul mandatului soțului său, atunci când ea participa la luarea deciziilor. Acum însă are propriul său scaun, iar politica externă a Statelor Unite este în mâinile ei. Doamna de la Washington a parcurs mai bine de 960 mii de kilometri în scopul exercitării responsabilităților sale.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Discursurile pe care le-a rostit de-a lungul celor trei ani de când se află la guvernare au fost directe, dar optimiste. Într-un recent interviu oferit postului NBC, Hillary Clinton a spus: „Noi vom conduce pentru că America este menită să conducă”. Un astfel de mesaj demonstrează devotamentul ei față de țara în care trăiește și de faptul că nu-i este teamă de inamici. Problema este că fraza rostită ar putea supăra multe state, în special cele „rivale”. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Este bine să manifești dragoste și patriotism, dar asemenea exprimări denotă orgoliu și dorința de asuprire. Într-un fel, prin cuvântul ei, SUA dau pe față dorința lor de a fi conducătorii lumii, chiar dacă acest concept devine ‘tabu’ după nenumărate evenimente de genul  Apartheidului sau al Holocaustului. Nu că ar fi vorba de așa ceva, dar orice afirmație ar putea crea anumite interpretări și respectiv reacții în rândurile actorilor și conducătorilor politici din sistemul internațional. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Este bine să fii mândru și să lupți pentru țara ta și să afirmi că ai tăi sunt cei mai buni, dar până la urmă toți oamenii sunt egali și n-ar trebui considerat vreun popor ca fiind conducătorul celorlate națiuni.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-1038014502752376025?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/1038014502752376025/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=1038014502752376025' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/1038014502752376025'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/1038014502752376025'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2011/10/diplomatia-americana-si-cuvintele-care.html' title='Diplomația americană și cuvintele care pot schimba sensul lucrurilor'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-1596754659266638652</id><published>2011-10-16T16:17:00.002+03:00</published><updated>2011-10-16T18:57:42.765+03:00</updated><title type='text'>The Germans 'occupy' Berlin as others do the same</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-YyW448aat9g/TprY-GRMROI/AAAAAAAAAps/7MlhNrSGgMw/s1600/Occupy%2BBerlin.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear:left; float:left;margin-right:1em; margin-bottom:1em"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="238" width="320" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-YyW448aat9g/TprY-GRMROI/AAAAAAAAAps/7MlhNrSGgMw/s320/Occupy%2BBerlin.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Hundreds of people took to the streets in Frankfurt, Hamburg and Berlin to rally against the “financial evil”. They want “freedom for people, not corporations”. The protesters don’t want further bailout and don’t fully support the government’s actions. In Frankfurt the people gathered in front on the European Central Bank.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;According to berlin-gegen-krieg.de, the Germans demand the closure of banks’ dictatorship and of the multinational corporations. They also rally against war and racism. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"We're lacking democracy in this country. There are structures to keep us isolated from one another; they make us compete instead of cooperate," Christian Wollghast says. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The first protest, named “Occupy Wall Street” started 28 days ago on Wall Street in New York City, USA. Later, the protests by-passed the globe, extending to the largest cities of the world – Tokyo, Hong Kong, Tel Aviv, London, Paris, Rome, Barcelona, Berlin, Bucharest, Amsterdam and others under “Occupy” chant. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;Photo by Markku Rainer Peltonen.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-1596754659266638652?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/1596754659266638652/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=1596754659266638652' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/1596754659266638652'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/1596754659266638652'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2011/10/germans-occupy-berlin-as-others-do-same.html' title='The Germans &apos;occupy&apos; Berlin as others do the same'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-YyW448aat9g/TprY-GRMROI/AAAAAAAAAps/7MlhNrSGgMw/s72-c/Occupy%2BBerlin.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-1951936133784631294</id><published>2011-10-16T01:47:00.001+03:00</published><updated>2011-10-16T01:47:45.329+03:00</updated><title type='text'>Noaptea albă la Iași cu Florin Chilian</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-oEvznSGoI_0/TpoNSIYpZyI/AAAAAAAAApg/5ypwBgGQKvQ/s1600/IMG_6888.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear:left; float:left;margin-right:1em; margin-bottom:1em"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="214" width="320" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-oEvznSGoI_0/TpoNSIYpZyI/AAAAAAAAApg/5ypwBgGQKvQ/s320/IMG_6888.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Florin Chilian a cântat la miezul nopții în Sala Pașilor Pierduți a Universității „Alexandru Ioan Cuza” din Iași.

Almost everyone today has an account on the greatest social media website – FACEBOOK. Although it changes its Face every other month, millions of users continue to use it as the best mean of communication and socialization. Photos, comments, statuses, ‘likes’, friends, events, groups – we LIKE them all. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We don’t quite realize that while we intensively socialize, someone earns thousands of dollars every day. How come? Well, the ads cost money. They appear on the right side of our page and are programmed in a way which monitors our daily activity and provide us the ads which might interest us the most. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A few days ago, Google Plus, a new social media platform, opened its doors to all the “WWW-inhabitants”. Now we are going to see who’s going to be the best and earn the most. The competition leads to efficiency and excellence.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;Picture source: facebook.com&lt;/i&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-3042006489546328706?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/3042006489546328706/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=3042006489546328706' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/3042006489546328706'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/3042006489546328706'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2011/09/facebook-generation-whats-next.html' title='Facebook generation - what&apos;s next?'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-8WTyZfs-Ozw/TnzrJmIfBsI/AAAAAAAAApY/rOSZEF88c6g/s72-c/facebook.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-1508926150548981092</id><published>2011-09-15T22:34:00.003+03:00</published><updated>2011-09-15T22:58:34.809+03:00</updated><title type='text'>Parlamentul European face recomandări Comisiei și Consiliului pentru a accepta Moldova în UE</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://audiovisual.europarl.europa.eu/Resource.axd?9q3JY2Pnl6+DUMx5CudVIw7RQep7iy3HDQeHsMUzenfwzUjrM01SUQJGuGQ0iM69uaYg9y+NUYdSUFVxLu9ajbpf5s9qryhxiRzL8NxVCMOyYWwJ5HcO4HKiB7xhVsZ41/zClTwSsXul6b9euUrCaJiVJHhelzKdLyb6hQePCFgXgXkO4oR8wsJdZzq4hXDc" imageanchor="1" style="clear:left; float:left;margin-right:1em; margin-bottom:1em"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="480" width="456" src="http://audiovisual.europarl.europa.eu/Resource.axd?9q3JY2Pnl6+DUMx5CudVIw7RQep7iy3HDQeHsMUzenfwzUjrM01SUQJGuGQ0iM69uaYg9y+NUYdSUFVxLu9ajbpf5s9qryhxiRzL8NxVCMOyYWwJ5HcO4HKiB7xhVsZ41/zClTwSsXul6b9euUrCaJiVJHhelzKdLyb6hQePCFgXgXkO4oR8wsJdZzq4hXDc" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Parlamentul European susține o eventuală aderare a Republicii Moldova la Uniunea Europeană.

Potrivit oficialului, instituția „recunoaște importanța Republicii Moldova și angajamentul pe care și l-a luat în fața Uniunii Europene ca un partener cheie”. &lt;br /&gt;„Succesul Moldovei este important pentru Uniunea Europeană”, susține Buzek. Președintele Parlamentului este de părere că, în ultimii doi ani țara a demonstrat un interes deosebit în demararea reformelor. Pe de altă parte, el spune că mai sunt multe de făcut „nu doar în consolidarea democrației și a statului de drept, ci și în combaterea corupției și eradicarea sărăciei”. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;„Pentru a realiza aceste scopuri, este nevoie de stabilitate politică și alegerea unui președinte”, a declarat șeful Parlamentului European. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.europarl.europa.eu/sides/getDoc.do?pubRef=-//EP//TEXT+REPORT+A7-2011-0289+0+DOC+XML+V0//RO"&gt;Aici &lt;/a&gt;găsiți recomandările făcute de Parlamentul European adresate Consiliului UE, Comisiei Europene și SEAE.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;Sursă foto: europarl.europa.eu&lt;/i&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-1508926150548981092?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/1508926150548981092/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=1508926150548981092' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/1508926150548981092'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/1508926150548981092'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2011/09/parlamentul-european-face-recomandari.html' title='Parlamentul European face recomandări Comisiei și Consiliului pentru a accepta Moldova în UE'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-4123759799851180595</id><published>2011-09-14T11:11:00.001+03:00</published><updated>2011-09-14T11:20:21.653+03:00</updated><title type='text'>Reluarea negocierilor în formatul „5+2” salutate de SUA</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-cZClYleFigc/TnBjrX9dKWI/AAAAAAAAApQ/_5hFoPhE1_Y/s1600/Clinton.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear:left; float:left;margin-right:1em; margin-bottom:1em"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320" width="214" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-cZClYleFigc/TnBjrX9dKWI/AAAAAAAAApQ/_5hFoPhE1_Y/s320/Clinton.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Statele Unite ale Americii salută reluarea negocierilor în formatul „5+2” cu privire la soluționarea diferendului transnistrean. „SUA salută progresul făcut săptămâna trecută în reluarea negocierilor oficiale în formatul „5+2” pentru a găsi o soluție la problema Transnistriei din Moldova”, a declarat purtătorul de cuvânt al Departamentului de Stat al SUA, ieri, 13 septembrie la Washington. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Statele Unite se simt sprijinite în indentificarea unei soluții la această problemă prin faptul că primul ministru al Republicii Moldova, Vlad Filat și liderul Transnistriei, Igor Smirnov s-au întânit în privat în Germania. Ca urmare a discuțiilor, Smirnov a acceptat reluarea negocierilor, care vor avea loc la Moscova pe 22 septembrie. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;În formatul de negocieri „5+2” participă Republica Moldova și Transnistria în calitate de combatanți, Ucraina, Rusia și OSCE în calitate de mediatori, iar Uniunea Europeană și Statele Unite ale Americii în calitate de observatori.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-4123759799851180595?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/4123759799851180595/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=4123759799851180595' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/4123759799851180595'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/4123759799851180595'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2011/09/reluarea-negocierilor-in-formatul-52.html' title='Reluarea negocierilor în formatul „5+2” salutate de SUA'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-cZClYleFigc/TnBjrX9dKWI/AAAAAAAAApQ/_5hFoPhE1_Y/s72-c/Clinton.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-129235826040399482</id><published>2011-09-13T16:04:00.000+03:00</published><updated>2011-09-13T16:04:04.733+03:00</updated><title type='text'>The importance of internet in our century</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-VJFdk2d_17M/Tm9UjfBZkXI/AAAAAAAAApI/b8qH-ncFcJ8/s1600/Internet.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear:left; float:left;margin-right:1em; margin-bottom:1em"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320" width="282" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-VJFdk2d_17M/Tm9UjfBZkXI/AAAAAAAAApI/b8qH-ncFcJ8/s320/Internet.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;We live in a century where every realm of human life is advancing. The people invent new methods of doing things in order to ease their tasks, by replacing them with technology. A great invention of our generation is the internet. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our life is more and more demanding due to the large amount of work we are supposed to do. The internet becomes a great help while doing some chores. First of all, it's an easy way to communicate. We can send instant messages which are received at the same time when we press Enter button. Also, it is very cheap. We can use Skype for free in order to talk to our oversees family and friends. If we are talking in terms of education, the internet is a great feature in doing research. We don't need to overcrowd the libraries anymore and ask the librarians to browse shelves with books to find the information we need. We can search by ourselves and find outstanding resources of any kind. It's fast, cheap, time-saving and very efficient. When it comes to socializing, the internet is a perfect mean to do that. You can socialize with unknown people; you can learn new languages in an interactive way, forgetting the classical boring method of learning from books. It gets more interesting and captivating. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The most important advantage would be the replacement of thousands of human being's tasks with the computers connected to the internet. For example, now you don't have to go to the airline’s office to buy you plane ticket. You can do it online, fast, easy and comfortable. The people are encouraged to use even the on-line check-ins in order to replace the human work. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course, for most of use, the usage of internet became a daily basic need and it’s quite hard to imagine living today without internet. The speed of sending the information, the ways of finding information helps the people to have fewer things to do and ease their lives.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-129235826040399482?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/129235826040399482/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=129235826040399482' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/129235826040399482'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/129235826040399482'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2011/09/importance-of-internet-in-our-century.html' title='The importance of internet in our century'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-VJFdk2d_17M/Tm9UjfBZkXI/AAAAAAAAApI/b8qH-ncFcJ8/s72-c/Internet.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-844901321061925345</id><published>2011-09-08T19:31:00.000+03:00</published><updated>2011-09-08T19:31:22.122+03:00</updated><title type='text'>Why are the college years special to me?</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-wCiqvN0mF6g/TmjtywxcUkI/AAAAAAAAApA/gMHKLg4F4Kg/s1600/College%2Bstudents.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear:left; float:left;margin-right:1em; margin-bottom:1em"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="214" width="320" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-wCiqvN0mF6g/TmjtywxcUkI/AAAAAAAAApA/gMHKLg4F4Kg/s320/College%2Bstudents.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;The college years are definitely the best time in a person's life. I personally strongly agree with this statement, because I am a college student now. I really like my college years more than my high school years. There are two major reasons for that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The professional reasons are among the most important factors. While in college, a student studies what he is mostly interested in and isn't forced to learn all the subjects he doesn’t like. At the same time, he will meet other students who are interested in the same topics based on what they are majoring in. Having colleagues to talk with on the same subjects helps him to better understand the area he’s focusing into. The professors are specialized people who can provide an efficient feedback on the facts in which the student is mostly interested. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The other reason is the personal feature. While being in college, the student is already mature enough to be independent. He is supposed to take decisions by himself without being forced to accept an outside influence. He becomes more flexible with his schedule and he can organize his time. Living on campus can definitely mean a significant life experience to the student. In the dorm he will be forced to take care of himself from all points of view: to cook, to do his own laundry, to budget his money and others. One thing that makes the college student life even more interesting and pleasant is the possibility to have fun with your colleagues or even your room mates without your family or relatives knowing what you’re exactly doing every single moment. You can go clubbing, you may not sleep nights due to the large amount of work you have to do for school or just because you chilled out with your friends. Also, you may find your great love! Who knows?!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The college life is unique and the moments the student experiences will be remembered for the rest of his life. Nothing can be compared to the freedom and responsibilities you have when you’re a college student!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-844901321061925345?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/844901321061925345/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=844901321061925345' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/844901321061925345'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/844901321061925345'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2011/09/why-are-college-years-special-to-me.html' title='Why are the college years special to me?'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-wCiqvN0mF6g/TmjtywxcUkI/AAAAAAAAApA/gMHKLg4F4Kg/s72-c/College%2Bstudents.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-1667502211906915085</id><published>2011-08-27T12:12:00.000+03:00</published><updated>2011-08-28T12:13:10.861+03:00</updated><title type='text'>Republic of Moldova today – 20 years of independence from the Soviet Union</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-rzkxfTU0j_I/TloGYkwm-1I/AAAAAAAAAo4/C22ZnWSGPXA/s1600/CIMG0001.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear:left; float:left;margin-right:1em; margin-bottom:1em"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" width="320" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-rzkxfTU0j_I/TloGYkwm-1I/AAAAAAAAAo4/C22ZnWSGPXA/s320/CIMG0001.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;20 years ago, on August 27, the Republic of Moldova proclaimed its independence from the Soviet Union. It was a great event, the Moldovans gaining their freedom after 51 years under a communist regime.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today, the Republic of Moldova , sandwiched between Romania, a European Union member state and Ukraine, a former Soviet Republic, celebrates the Independence Day. The Moldovans have different opinions about today’s Republic, some regretting the dissolution of the USSR, while others hope for an European integration.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mrs. Eugenia Pintea, 50, thinks that 20 years it’s a quite short period of time to switch from one regime to another. She blames the Communist regime which was established from 1991 until 2009 for failures in achieving a better life in the country. However, she is pleased to live in a free state now. „I am personally delighted to live in an independent country where everyone can freely express their opinion.” She explains that there are still so many things to be done and she’s optimistic about Moldova’s future. „I am waiting for victory, democracy and a greater approach towards the European Union because that’s our place, that’s where we’re supposed to be,” says Mrs. Pintea.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mrs. Angela Ciobanas has a different opinion. She believes that 20 years of independence mean 20 years of instability. „We don’t have a president now. We don’t have justice and a well-developed economy. We can travel to other countries only if we have enough financial resources to get a visa,” says Ciobanas. She states that in a country with injustice, there is nobody to complain to.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The younger generation has a different perspective and sees the collapse of the Soviet Union as a step forward towards a better life. Although some of them didn’t get the taste of the Sovietic times, some believe that Moldova is aiming at the right direction. „20 years of independence of my country means a well defined political, economic and social structure, freed from the Soviet occupation,” says Valeria Trinca, a 19 years old student.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Moldova has been congratulated for its independence by the United States of America. „On behalf of President Obama and the people of the United States, I am delighted to congratulate the people of Moldova as you celebrate the 20th anniversary of your independence this August 27,” says Hillary Clinton, the US Secretary of State. She added that the USA “isa strong supporter of Moldova’s independence, sovereignty and territorial integrity and we will continue to support you as you work towards becoming a free and prosperous part of the European community,” said Mrs. Clinton in a press statement.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On August 27, 1991, Moldova signed the Declaration of Independence and became a republic, known today as the Republic of Moldova.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-1667502211906915085?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/1667502211906915085/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=1667502211906915085' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/1667502211906915085'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/1667502211906915085'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2011/08/republic-of-moldova-today-20-years-of.html' title='Republic of Moldova today – 20 years of independence from the Soviet Union'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-rzkxfTU0j_I/TloGYkwm-1I/AAAAAAAAAo4/C22ZnWSGPXA/s72-c/CIMG0001.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-5884840009425772950</id><published>2011-08-23T23:45:00.002+03:00</published><updated>2011-08-24T00:00:49.165+03:00</updated><title type='text'>Trăim încă în mileniul diferenţelor şi al discriminărilor</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-K4DfhXOT8fs/TlQRVc9J-jI/AAAAAAAAAow/lnWtooIVPj8/s1600/Workers.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear:left; float:left;margin-right:1em; margin-bottom:1em"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320" width="213" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-K4DfhXOT8fs/TlQRVc9J-jI/AAAAAAAAAow/lnWtooIVPj8/s320/Workers.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Potrivit unui studiu recent realizat de un grup de cercetători de la Universitatea Georgetown din Washington, D.C., diferenţele dintre sexe încă există, mai ales la capitolul venituri anuale. Nu că ar fi o noutate asta. Cercetătorii însă încearcă să ne atragă atenţia asupra unor date empirice. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;O femeie cu studii de licenţă câştigă cu 650.000 de dolari americani în medie mai puţin pe tot parcursul vieţii decât un bărbat cu aceleaşi studii şi la acelaşi job. Un deţinător al unei diplome de licenţă va câştiga în medie 2,3 milioane dolari în decursul vieţii, iar un deţinător al unei diplome de masterat 3,3 millioane. Chiar şi la capitolul rase există diferenţe. Reprezentanţii rasei negroide şi hispanicii ar fi cel mai prost platiţi în comparaţie cu cei care împărtăşesc rasa albă sau asiatică.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Studiul a fost efectuat pe teritoriul Statelor Unite şi implică datele cetăţenilor americani de diferite rase.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-5884840009425772950?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/5884840009425772950/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=5884840009425772950' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/5884840009425772950'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/5884840009425772950'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2011/08/traim-inca-in-mileniul-diferentelor-si.html' title='Trăim încă în mileniul diferenţelor şi al discriminărilor'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-K4DfhXOT8fs/TlQRVc9J-jI/AAAAAAAAAow/lnWtooIVPj8/s72-c/Workers.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-3114747213738939475</id><published>2011-08-09T17:18:00.002+03:00</published><updated>2011-08-09T17:32:28.297+03:00</updated><title type='text'>2011 - anul revoltelor violente?</title><content type='html'>Oamenii se revoltă. Unii își doresc un loc de muncă, o viață mai decentă, alții protestează pentru schimbarea regimului politic, însă unii sunt în pragul disperării și al foametei.&lt;br /&gt;Începând cu revoltele din țările arabe, spre sărăcia și foametea profundă din țările africane și îndreptându-ne spre țările din Europa – Ucraina, Spania și mai nou Marea Britanie, zeci de mii de oameni au cuprins străzile marilor orașe arătându-și nemulțumirea sub cele mai diverse forme de manifestare: proteste pașnice, îmbrânceli, violențe și chiar războaie civile.&lt;br /&gt;Să începem cu cele mai noi conflicte. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Marea Britanie&lt;/b&gt;. Inițial, mii de tineri au ieșit pe străzile Londrei pentru a protesta pașnic împotriva uciderii unui civil de către polițiștii britanici. Protestul s-a transformat într-o manifestare violentă, zeci de clădiri și mașini fiind incendiate, oameni răniți și jefuiți, magazine distruse. Evenimentele violente din Regatul Unit s-au extins și-n alte orașe britanice.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;iframe width="560" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/RLHOpmfn-IQ" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ucraina&lt;/b&gt;. Și în Kiev peste 1.000 de persoane, susținători ai fostului premier, Iulia Timoshenko au destins în mod violent împotriva polițiștilor cerând eliberarea din arest a acesteia. Câțiva protestatari au fost arestați.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;iframe width="425" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/gT2lGncCJw4" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Siria.&lt;/b&gt; Multe țări și-au retras diplomații de pe teritoriul Siriei și au întrerupt relațiile diplomatice cu Damascul pe fondul violențelor care au loc în această țară după modelul revoltelor care au avut loc și-n țările vecine. Peste 300 de persoane au fost omorâte de la începutul Ramadanului, potrivit Associated Press.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;iframe width="560" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/fbzjP4PsAno" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Spania&lt;/b&gt;. Peste 100 de tineri au pornit într-un marș din Madrid spre Bruxelles pentru a-și arăta nemulțumirea față de lipsa locurilor de muncă, criza economică și sistemul bancar. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;iframe width="560" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/iaJbl8vNMHg" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Somalia&lt;/b&gt;. În Somalia situația este cea mai tragică. Oamenii nu au ieșit în stradă pentru că nu mai puteri, la propriu. Pe fondul unei crize alimentare severe, sute de oameni, în special copii mor de foame. Grupuri de refugiați așteaptă ajutor umanitar, în special hrană de la autoritățile străine. Potrivit CNN, peste 12 milioane de oameni suferă de malnutriție, Somalia fiind cel mai puternic afectată. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;iframe width="560" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/fJsJkd1o9ug" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-3114747213738939475?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/3114747213738939475/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=3114747213738939475' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/3114747213738939475'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/3114747213738939475'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2011/08/2011-anul-revoltelor-violente.html' title='2011 - anul revoltelor violente?'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://img.youtube.com/vi/RLHOpmfn-IQ/default.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-5767900277165539695</id><published>2011-08-07T14:51:00.000+03:00</published><updated>2011-08-07T14:51:55.234+03:00</updated><title type='text'>Mașinile nemțești - răsăritul în Germania, apusul în Moldova</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ivISphqu-4o/Tj58TO0aZqI/AAAAAAAAAoo/drVAp8W9KNg/s1600/CIMG0481.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear:left; float:left;margin-right:1em; margin-bottom:1em"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" width="320" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ivISphqu-4o/Tj58TO0aZqI/AAAAAAAAAoo/drVAp8W9KNg/s320/CIMG0481.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Vânzătorii de automobile din Republica Moldova sunt incerți. Și-ar dori să câștige cât mai mult pentru un Mercedes adus din Germania, însă negustorii când aud de 13 mii de euro, își continuă drumul în căutarea a ceva mai ieftin. Prețul uriaș nu corespunde deloc cu buzunarul moldovenilor. De fapt, astăzi din ce în ce mai multe persoane vor să scape de automobilele lor, de cele mai multe ori vechi, și să meargă în UE pentru a-și achiziționa una mai bună și la un preț mai mic decât cel din Moldova. În așa fel, fluxul de mașini de mâna a doua din Germania, Austria sau alte țări ajunge pe drumurile moldave. Și bineînțeles că prețul va fi aproape dublu, deoarece procurarea vehiculului și aducerea acestuia în țară impune costuri considerabile. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Și uite așa, moldovenii trebuie să plătească mult mai mult pentru o mașină veche decât un neamț, nefăcând comparație cu câștigurile lunare ale acestora. Asta e piața noastră și trebuie să ne conformăm, pentru că nu fiecare are posibilitatea de a merge în Germania și de a-și procura o mașină după bunul plac și după buzunarul său. Rămânem la mâna celor care au un pașaport românesc și au acces liber pe întreg spațiul Uniunii Europene. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;La urma urmei, moldovenii nici nu au nevoie de automobile noi, luând în considerație calitatea drumurilor pe care producția nemțească este pusă în funcțiune. Moldova devine ultima mamă-gazdă atunci când sunt aproape de sfârșit. Și aici rămân – pentru totdeauna!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-5767900277165539695?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/5767900277165539695/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=5767900277165539695' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/5767900277165539695'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/5767900277165539695'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2011/08/masinile-nemtesti-rasaritul-in-germania.html' title='Mașinile nemțești - răsăritul în Germania, apusul în Moldova'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ivISphqu-4o/Tj58TO0aZqI/AAAAAAAAAoo/drVAp8W9KNg/s72-c/CIMG0481.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-6161133063482571468</id><published>2011-08-06T17:16:00.000+03:00</published><updated>2011-08-06T17:16:52.823+03:00</updated><title type='text'>În căutarea specialiștilor, angajatorii uită de profesionalism</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-1AwuF7mhFHI/Tj1MzPTQyXI/AAAAAAAAAog/zR9xOVA2QWE/s1600/bestjobs.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear:left; float:left;margin-right:1em; margin-bottom:1em"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="269" width="320" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-1AwuF7mhFHI/Tj1MzPTQyXI/AAAAAAAAAog/zR9xOVA2QWE/s320/bestjobs.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;De fiecare dată angajatorii caută specialiști pentru pozițiile vacante pe care le au. Impun zeci de condiții și-și doresc un candidat ideal. De multe ori însă angajatorii sunt cei care dau dovadă de incompetență și neseriozitate chiar în momentul în care-și fac publicitate. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ce pretenții ar putea avea de la un lingvist atunci când însuși angajatorul nu-și cunoaște limba în care lucrează?! Ne-am obișnuit să trăim într-o societate în care muncesc mulți incompetenți care pur și simplu nu-și cunosc meseria, însă prestează servicii. Este timpul depășim aceste momente și să ne civilizăm, căci trăim într-o eră a globalizării unde câștigă doar cel mai bun. Cu specialiști slab calificați nu vom reuși să atingem performanță.

Are we living in the era of freedom of press yet? Can we talk about no-bias when listening to a report due to multiple media resources available? Can concurrence be an important factor in developing better researched reports and investigations?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Despite of the fact that nowadays there are lots of sources of information, we should be still careful about what we read, watch or listen. It is so easy to manipulate a person who is not well informed! Choosing the right source it’s quite hard. But which is the right one? Of course, the one which presents the information the way it is, with no other additional inputs to the report itself. There are journalists who will always add some spicy stuff in order to make their story more attractive. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In order to make a distinction between a trustworthy channel and a bias one, we should pay attention to its age – The New York Times’ example which existed since 1851. The reputation of the journalists working for that publication is another important aspect. If the reporters haven’t been accused of plagiarism or misinformation since their career, we could consider the feature as an important asset towards a trustier news-teller. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course, one cannot judge a whole personality of a journalist if he or she has registered some minor mistakes. These can result from wrong information given by the source or it might be a lack of sufficient research. The biggest mistakes are considered those presenting totally wrong information which directly affects someone. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Living in the era of technology makes our life easier in terms of accessing the news, and a bit more complicated when it comes to sorting and filtering the news by choosing the correct ones. Some bloggers can be valuable sources of information, while some news websites which pretend to offer news might be the “bad guys” who are inventing news in order to reach the highest rank on readers/viewers top on a daily base. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How do you select the sources you’re getting informed from?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-1016540866652824552?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/1016540866652824552/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=1016540866652824552' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/1016540866652824552'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/1016540866652824552'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2011/08/freedom-of-press-freedom-of-writing.html' title='Freedom of press - freedom of writing whatever we want?'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/--yMqqn_xYbM/Tjwrk79KN0I/AAAAAAAAAoY/1HeGs2mEK2w/s72-c/CIMG0080.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-6954701219901423546</id><published>2011-06-25T00:39:00.005+03:00</published><updated>2011-06-25T00:49:08.675+03:00</updated><title type='text'>The 'happiness' has different meanings</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_yK3ruv5mA9E/THaW6lEdifI/AAAAAAAAAG0/JpxWOJX9GfE/s1600/couple-holding-hands.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 388px; height: 251px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_yK3ruv5mA9E/THaW6lEdifI/AAAAAAAAAG0/JpxWOJX9GfE/s1600/couple-holding-hands.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;It was 18:40 when I left my house in a hurry. I was supposed to catch the bus from 18:44, but suddenly my friend called me to tell that she has mistakenly told me wrong address. She made sure we are going to the same-new direction together. Then, I had to hurry up, because there was a bus in 2 minutes earlier. I had to run in order to catch it. I was there. It didn’t come on time. It had a three minutes delay and that bothered me. The other bus I wasn’t really expecting for just arrived at the bus station. I had to step in, so I would make sure the girl wasn’t waiting too long for me. After the doors have been closed, the bus I needed popped up. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At the next stop I had switched busses, because I would arrive earlier with the bus behind. I guess I was designed to have bad luck that day. A traffic jam just occurred on the street where usually they don’t exist. My six minutes travel turned into a 15 minutes long trip and I was pissed off. Many policemen were checking the documents of the pedestrians and also managing the traffic. I was nervous I couldn’t get on time. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Being bored and waiting to get to my destination, I turn my head to the right. I’ve seen two young men sitting next to each other. They were holding hands. For a minute I wasn’t sure about that. But I was right. I wasn’t shocked, but was just a little bit surprised that, in a small, conservative town in southern Germany, the gay people would not be afraid to show their love in public. And I don’t have a problem with that. The thing is that there are still people who won’t accept that and would judge them instead of trying to questioning themselves and trying to understand. The other day I’ve seen two girls kissing and the older people who were around were very surprised to see that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Are we talking about a liberal European society where the people do whatever they want in order to be happy, or we are still lurking from behind from the society? Are we ready yet to be mindless of what other people do and trying not to judge the others, but look at ourselves? What’s the best thing to do? Everyone deserves to be happy and for each person happiness has a different meaning.

Este vorba despre un cuplu de tineri a căror identitate încă nu a fost descoperită.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;După o victorie a echipei Boston Bruins și o înfrângere al Canucks-ilor din Canada, sute de suporteri înfuriați eu ieșit pe străzile din orașul canadian Vancouver și și-au manifestat nemulțumirea în mod violent. Fotoreporterul Rich Lam a surprins un moment inedit din timpul confruntărilor - doi tineri s-au așezat în mijlocul străzii și s-au sărutat cu multă pasiune. Imaginea ne face imediat referire la celebra frază &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Make Love, not War&lt;/span&gt; a lui Gershon Legman. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oare ce-o fi mai plăcut - să te săruți cu persoana iubită sau să lovești și să fii lovit pentru că echipa ta favorită a pierdut? Sună idealist, dar vreau să cred că dacă toți tinerii s-ar iubi și nu ar instiga la acte de violență, am avea o viață lipsită de conflicte și scăldată în dragoste. Dar până la urmă fiecare face ce vrea și ce-i place, căci trăim într-o lume a globalizării, nu?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Foto: Rich Lam/Getty Images&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-9056102844258030825?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/9056102844258030825/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=9056102844258030825' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/9056102844258030825'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/9056102844258030825'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2011/06/make-love-not-war.html' title='Make love, not war'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-19wkwSkecSc/TfvR6bhYRkI/AAAAAAAAAoQ/B1Q2522HQlQ/s72-c/kiss-vancouver.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-1615801023730468507</id><published>2011-06-09T23:57:00.011+03:00</published><updated>2011-06-10T00:06:54.118+03:00</updated><title type='text'>Life is to love and be happy!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-60Du2CKDJYk/TfE1Z1VMa-I/AAAAAAAAAoI/0ne2Yhzmmro/s1600/couple-smile-and-heart.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 290px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-60Du2CKDJYk/TfE1Z1VMa-I/AAAAAAAAAoI/0ne2Yhzmmro/s320/couple-smile-and-heart.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5616328928236694498" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are moments in life when we suffer, when we want to be alone and no one to bother us. It’s the human nature. You approach the window and look in vain. You see nothing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Every day brings us something new, a new life story, a new beginning. It is our duty do not let it pass by, otherwise the chance that pops up to us might be caught by somebody else. Even if our mind is puzzled, we have to go forward and try to smile, because life is beautiful. There are tough moments in life, of course, but we were designed by God to learn to overcome them. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We should not forget that there are people who care and want us to be happy. If we love them too, why should we disappoint them? There are things that are useless and need no time to get angry about. Life is too short to be upset and to hate.

Peste 30 de mii de absolvenți s-au prezentat la examen mai mult sau mai puțin pregătiți și și-au demonstrat ”propriile” lor aptitudini în materie de limbi străine. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p id="proembed"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt; var optiuni = {media_id:'VGh',autostart:false,fullscreen:false,proWidth:448,proHeight:366 };&lt;/script&gt;&lt;script src="http://dev.protv.md/embed_video/" type="text/javascript"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;Urmărind un reportaj cu privire la examenul desfășurat, realizat de echipa ProTV Chișinău, m-am convins încă odată că trăim într-o societate fără viitor. De ce spun asta? Tinerii învățăcei nu sunt capabili de a formula o propoziție de bază în limba pe care o studiază de 9 - 11 ani. Este foarte trist să știi că tânăra generație nu este pregătită să facă față provocărilor procesului de globalizare. Să ajungi absolvent de liceu, fără cunoștinte de bază de limbă engleză sau franceză, este o tragedie pentru societatea moldovenească. Ce viitor va avea această țară dacă din urmă vin oameni nepregătiți, care n-au niciun interes față de carte, de cultură, pentru care tot ce contează sunt banii trimiși de părinții care muncesc din greu peste hotare pentru a le asigura un viitor decent? Cum va ieși Moldova din complicatul labirint în care se află? Atâta timp cât tânăra generație nu va avea dragoste pentru cultură și educație, nu ne putem aștepta la un viitor mai bun, la un viitor european. Societatea va rămâne la nivelul limbii „moldovenești”, cu oameni inculți, nerespectuoși, lipsiți de bunul simț și mereu corupți, pentru că într-un fel, așa au fost educați de pe băncile școlii. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Moldova n-are nevoie de alegeri „democratice” de două ori pe an pentru a demonstra că trăim într-un stat de drept, pentru ca nu sunt o democrație în adevăratul sens al cuvântului, ci are nevoie de un sistem de educație pus bine la punct, în care să nu existe corupție, ci  concurență, în care tinerii să fie motivați să învețe pentru a obține ceva în viață, să învețe să lupte demn pentru un viitor mai bun, un viitor frumos, trăit în onestitate și civilizație. Avem nevoie încă de multe schimbări de mentalitate, de investiții mari în educație, pentru a cultiva o societate care să merite un viitor european. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ce face un tânăr student din Moldova? Merge la facultate pe apucate, cheltuie banii părinților pe băutură și petreceri, iar în sesiune dau bani pentru a promova, sau în „cel mai bun caz”, copiază. A copiat... dar cu ce s-a ales? Cu o notă bună și cu o diplomă care nu demonstrează nimic și n-are prea mare valoare. Slabe sunt șansele să-și găsească un loc de muncă pe măsura așteptărilor, pentru că tinerii absolvenți sunt de fapt, lipsiți de orice competențe și aptitudini. Nu sunt capabili de a face nimic, nu pot ține o conversație de bază în limba engleză, iar în diplomă acesta are nota nouă. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nu doar tinerii sunt de învinuit pentru gradul de cultură pe care-l au, ci și sistemul de învățământ. Într-o instituție în care nu trebuie decât să înveți pe de rost niște definiții pe care mai apoi să i le reproduci întocmai profesorului, nu ai cum să-ți formezi o gândire critică care de fapt reprezintă adevărata știință. Doar înțelegând cum se aplică lucrurile, cum acestea funcționează, poți să înțelegi problemele cu care te confrunți și să iai decizii corecte, analizându-le pe măsura cunoștințelor. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;În cadrul unui discurs făcut public astăzi, președintele american Barack Obama a vorbit despre importanța educației în viața unui om, menționând că trebuie să învățăm să gândim critic pentru a putea face față provocărilor vieții, să învățăm să ne auto-disciplinăm și să muncim mult pentru a deveni oameni educați.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;iframe width="560" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/2hOp408Ib5w" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Vrem în Uniunea Europeană. Dar cu ce mergem noi în UE? Cu limba „moldovenească”? Prin ce le demonstrăm europenilor că merităm și noi un viitor mai bun? Ce putem să-i învățăm – pentru că noi avem multe de învățat de la ei?!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-4260497987186738785?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/4260497987186738785/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=4260497987186738785' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/4260497987186738785'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/4260497987186738785'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2011/06/moldova-are-nevoie-de-cultura-nu-de.html' title='Moldova are nevoie de cultură, nu de politică!'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://img.youtube.com/vi/2hOp408Ib5w/default.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-6323115875399232147</id><published>2011-06-02T00:17:00.003+03:00</published><updated>2011-06-02T00:39:54.261+03:00</updated><title type='text'>Copilarie la limita de 5 lei</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-WbjABPQ85SE/TeaxS5EkttI/AAAAAAAAAnk/LNIIYi-TgC8/s1600/vata%2Bdulce.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-WbjABPQ85SE/TeaxS5EkttI/AAAAAAAAAnk/LNIIYi-TgC8/s320/vata%2Bdulce.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5613368923679667922" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A trecut și Ziua Copilului. Probabil că micuții din Moldova nu au avut parte de nimic special în această zi, deoarece în fiecare an e aceeași monotonie marcată de lipsa de inspirație din partea autorităților care pur și simplu neglijează acestă zi și nu știu să organizeze nimic special. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Vată dulce la 5 lei – doar asta le mai putem oferi copiilor noștri? E trist, dar adevărat. Și nu sunt părinții de învinuit pentru faptul că nu-și pot permite să le ofere mai multe lucruri. E trist să vezi un copil dorind ceva, iar tata și mama să-i spună nu din simplul motiv că nu-și permit. Părinții încearcă pe cât de mult cu putință să le facă viața frumoasă și nelipsită de tot ce-și doresc. Dar acest lucru nu are întotdeauna sorți de izbândă. Copilul, cel care are nevoie de căldura părintească, de atenția tatălui, de mângâierea mamei, nu are parte de toate acestea pentru că părinții sunt nevoiți să plece – să plece departe de ei pentru o perioadă lungă de timp cu scopul de a le asigura un viitor decent. Dar cum rămâne cu acea mângâiere, cu acea dragoste părintească de care un om în formare are atâta nevoie de ea?! Le trimit bani, dar aceștia nu pot compensa căldura părinților. Banii nu-i fac întotdeauna fericiți, pentru că pentru ei mama și tata sunt totul! Părinții sunt izvorul cunoașterii și îndrumătorii vieții pentru drumețul care abia e la început de cale. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;De multe ori când merg spre stația de autobuz, trec pe lângă o grădiniță plină de copii zburdalnici, fericiți și plini de viață. Pe semne, copiii germani n-ar avea aceleași „suferințe” precum cele ale semenilor moldoveni. Probabil că toți copiii sunt luați seara de părinți, aceștia fiind acasă alături de ei zilnic și nu sunt plecați peste hotare. Acești copii își pot spune moftul, pentru că știu că mama sau tatăl îi va cumpăra ce acesta-și doreste, evident, cu mici condiții.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Dar unui copil din Moldova ... ce poți să-i mai ceri când nu-i poți oferi prea multe în schimb?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Sursă foto: europalibera.org&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-6323115875399232147?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/6323115875399232147/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=6323115875399232147' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/6323115875399232147'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/6323115875399232147'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2011/06/copilarie-la-limita-de-5-lei.html' title='Copilarie la limita de 5 lei'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-WbjABPQ85SE/TeaxS5EkttI/AAAAAAAAAnk/LNIIYi-TgC8/s72-c/vata%2Bdulce.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-3120948444394453938</id><published>2011-05-29T12:07:00.002+03:00</published><updated>2011-05-29T12:12:59.809+03:00</updated><title type='text'>Leb das Leben!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-vIv18P4C1EY/TeIODEgXr5I/AAAAAAAAAnc/ui2zYknehMI/s1600/DSCN0325.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 180px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-vIv18P4C1EY/TeIODEgXr5I/AAAAAAAAAnc/ui2zYknehMI/s320/DSCN0325.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5612063531568967570" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ein neues Erlebnis ist immer willkommen.

Es ist für den geselligen Umgang wichtig. Wir können viel voneinander lernen. Allerdings kann man auch etwas über die Kultur lernen. Es gibt viele Dinge auf die man sich in einem neuen Land konzentrieren kann.

Am pășit timid și nedumerit. Nu știam exact încotro trebuia să mă îndrept pentru a-mi găsi cartea pe care o căutam. Mi-era teamă să întreb de cineva, căci nu eram sigur că acea persoană va vorbi engleza. Imediat în fața mea am văzut un birou de informații spre care m-am îndreptat. Am recunoscut bibliotecara care ne-a explicat (în engleză) cum funcționează sistemul atunci când am avut programul de orientare. Cu amabilitate, m-am adresat pentru a afla cu exactitate unde se afla cartea pe care o căutam. De precizat faptul că în Germania studenții singuri își iau cărțile de pe raft și nu așteaptă să i le aducă cineva. Ei bine, odată ce am localizat pe monitor raftul, m-am îndreptat spre locul în care urma să-mi găsesc publicația. Am găsit-o, însă după 10 minute de căutare, căci pur și simplu mă rătăcisem prin mulțimea de cărți (peste 2 milioane!). &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;M-am întors și m-am așezat la un calculator pentru a explora și alte publicații de care aveam nevoie. După câteva minute de căutare, m-am ridicat și am plecat. Impresionat de sistem, am uitat cu desăvârșire caietul cu notițe de la seminarul de Conflict Management. Mi-am înregistrat cartea după numele meu și am ieșit fără a mă mai uita în urmă. Ei bine, ajung acasă și caut caietul. Nu-l găsesc. Trece o săptămână, îl caut din nou. Nu-l găsesc. Trec două săptămâni. Răscolesc toată camera. Nu-l găsesc. Astăzi, după o lună de zile, am mers exact în aceeași locație unde fusesm prima dată. Surprins am fost atunci când așezându-mă din nou la calculator, am descoperit caietul cu notițe pe care-l căutam de o lună de zile. Intact! Nu puteam să cred. Am zâbit. Atunci am înțeles cât de onești și civilizați sunt nemții. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;În aceeași zi, întorcându-mă de la bibliotecă, am trecut pe la un magazin. La ieșire, după ce am achitat produsele, am văzut o doamnă care intra cu disperare în magazin. Nu știu cum se face că și-a pierdut ochelarii. Se adresează casieriței dacă nimeni nu a returnat ochelarii ei și, surprins am fost când aceștia erau pe masa casieriței deja. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Acesta a fost un motiv în plus de a mă face să cred cu tărie că poporul german este o națiune onestă, cu demnitate, cu respect și bine educată. Ei sunt adevărații europeni! Dar noi când vom ajunge la acest statut? Mai avem multe de schimbat în mentalitatea noastră.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-6805665346974283261?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/6805665346974283261/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=6805665346974283261' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/6805665346974283261'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/6805665346974283261'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2011/05/onestitate-germana.html' title='Onestitate germană'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ZD1YSqRfRx8/Tcw6q5sqLoI/AAAAAAAAAnU/KkJmgT-9baE/s72-c/CIMG0345-1.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-5306988951677622866</id><published>2011-04-18T00:58:00.002+03:00</published><updated>2011-04-18T01:02:10.848+03:00</updated><title type='text'>Momente, trăiri, gânduri, dorinţe, descoperiri...</title><content type='html'>Am decis să ies şi eu într-o duminică de Florii pentru că era prea frumos afară. Soarele strălucea pe cerul curat şi albastru, iarba verde emana un miros de primăvară, iar păpădiile dominau câmpiile înverzite. Mi-am deschis rucsacul şi am băgat cartea de politici împreună cu dicţionarul de germană. L-am închis şi am plecat. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-WrvkIPebm1E/TatjTZ5C3OI/AAAAAAAAAnM/8Pi6_3mDm1Y/s1600/CIMG0360.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-WrvkIPebm1E/TatjTZ5C3OI/AAAAAAAAAnM/8Pi6_3mDm1Y/s320/CIMG0360.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5596676146956786914" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Am aşteptat cam 10 minute pentru ca autobuzul numărul 1 să vină. M-am urcat în el şi m-am aşezat comod pe cel mai apropiat scaun, lângă geam. În faţa mea statea o doamnă cu nişte bagaje mari, probabil că venea de la aeroport, din Zurich. Am dedus asta după eticheta de la bagajul său. Vorbea cu un domn de vis-a-vis. Nu suna a germană, probabil a daneză sau chiar a finlandeză, dar ştiu sigur că făcea parte dintr-o limbă germanică. Mă uit pe monitor şi sunt nedumerit: mă cobor la Sternenplatz sau la următoarea staţie? În cele din urmă, mi-am făcut un calcul şi m-am decis să mă cobor la Sternenplatz pentru că mi-a plăcut atmosfera de pe stradă atunci când m-am plimbat ultima oară. M-am coborât din autobuz şi m-am îndreptat spre un loc verde ce s-aşterne de-a lunul Rinului. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cu privirea rătăcindă printre locurile frumoase pe care le vedeam, am ajuns în cele din urmă la locul spre care înaintam. Un pod care trecerea peste Rin mi-a apărut în faţă. Era plin de biciclişti care se plimbau de colo-colo. Apoi am făcut dreapta şi încercam să-mi găsesc un loc pe iarba proaspătă şi aromatizată. E o dorinţă de-a mea de a sta întins pe iarbă, savurând razele soarelui şi miroul de apă de mare. Plaja verde era plină de tineri. Îmi căutam cu atenţie un loc unde să mă aşez şi eu, însă nu îmi încetineam pasul, de teamă ca cineva să nu bănuiască că m-aş fi uitat la el/ea. După 70 de paşi mi-am găsit un loc superb, cam aglomerat ce-i drept, şi m-am aşezat pe iarbă. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Uitându-mă în jur, am constatat faptul că oamenii s-au pregătit serios pentru această ieşire la iarbă verde, aducându-şi pilote pe care le-au aşternut pe malul râului Rin. M-am aşezat oarecum comod, am privit în jur pentru câteva minute, admirând frumuseţea înconjurătoare. Mi-am scos cartea de politici şi am început să citesc de la pagina de unde am rămas data trecută. Nu mă puteam concentra pentru prea mult timp pentru că veşnic ceva îmi fura privirea. Un feribot care venea din Elveţia, plin de turişti entuziasmaţi, un avion personal care zbura foarte aproape de pâmânt, un tren pe care nemţii îl consideră Personal, însă pare mai mult a Rapid, un cuplu îndrăgostit ţinându-se de mână, o familie frumoasă – mama, tata şi copilul lor plimbându-se pe terasă. Apoi clădirea din spatele meu m-a lăsat şi până acum nedumerit – e un bloc de locuit sau un hotel? Era prea frumos pentru ca ochii mei să creadă perfecţiunea acelei clădiri. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Am revenit printre paginile mele care îmi tot spuneau cât de importante au fost cele două Tratate de la Roma din 1957. Chiar dacă am continuat să citesc, gândul meu zbura în altă parte – la o viaţă diferită de cea pe care am avut-o până acum şi la cea pe care aş putea-o avea în viitor. Mi-am ridicat ochii din carte din nou şi am privit spre doi tineri care erau la doi metri depărtare de mine. Ambii stăteau pe burtă şi se bronzau. Erau tineri, fără griji, cu zâmbetul pe buze, se priveau în ochi copilăreşte, iar la un moment dat el a început să-i cânte ceva. Dându-mi seama că-i privesc prea direct şi îndelungat, mi-am pus ochelarii de soare pentru a-mi acoperi privirea şi am continuat să-i urmăresc. Zâmbetul lor emana fericire, iar fericirea lor era sinceră, era pură. Se atingeau gingaş. După câteva clipe de tandreţe, ea deschide paginile unei reviste şi o frunzăreşte. Îi arată ceva cu degetul. El îşi scoate Iphone-ul şi butonează, probabil se juca cu multă pasiune. Erau desculţ, erau apropiaţi unul de altul. Se iubeau.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;În dreapta mea, două familii tinere îşi luau rămas bun, pe semne una dintre ele pleca. S-au îmbrăţişat pe rând cu toţii cu multă căldură. Şi-au spus Ciao! Şi au plecat zâmbind. Cei care au rămas, i-au cumpărat fetiţei lor o îngheţată. Fetiţa se juca cu tatăl ei, îl ţinea de mână şi încerca să se amuze. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Un tânăr singur, dar bine îmbrăcat, se plimba pe terasă. Era îngândurat, însă părea hotărât. A mers odată pe lângă mine. În trei minute s-a întors. Şi-a continuat calea. Doi tineri, un bărbat şi o femeie au ieşit împreună să alerge. S-au echipat cu cele necesare şi neapărat cu un zâmbet şi au pornit cursa. Mi-am continuat cele două pagini care-mi mai rămăseseră din capitolul doi, după care am închis cartea. Mi-am luat ceva timp doar pentru mine, fără cărţi, laptop şi ziare, timp personal pentru a vedea şi reflecta, pentru a mirosi şi a simţi plăcerea vieţii. Şi am înţeles că e Germania!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-5306988951677622866?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/5306988951677622866/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=5306988951677622866' title='6 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/5306988951677622866'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/5306988951677622866'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2011/04/momente-trairi-ganduri-dorinte.html' title='Momente, trăiri, gânduri, dorinţe, descoperiri...'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-WrvkIPebm1E/TatjTZ5C3OI/AAAAAAAAAnM/8Pi6_3mDm1Y/s72-c/CIMG0360.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>6</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-2062063798709869786</id><published>2011-03-30T12:56:00.003+03:00</published><updated>2011-03-30T13:04:52.881+03:00</updated><title type='text'>Jelui-m-aș dar n-am cui</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-1koWiSTNVz0/TZMALW2Cf4I/AAAAAAAAAnE/ese-883_y2k/s1600/CIMG0228.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-1koWiSTNVz0/TZMALW2Cf4I/AAAAAAAAAnE/ese-883_y2k/s320/CIMG0228.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5589811757607714690" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Zi de muncă. Cetățenii orașului Bălți se deplasează în toate părțile, fiecare cu treburile sale. Vârstnicii au umplut mijlocele de transport, în speranța că măcar în timpul zilei să mai găsească un loc liber în troleibuzul numărul 2. Se urca un moșneguț - un scaun liber, însă acesta a fost imediat ocupat de o domniță. Domnul în vârstă stă în picioare, cu spatele la ea. După o stație, domnișoara se ridică și-i spune să ia loc. Moșul ripostează: „Да садись ты! Нaшлась она...!” („Așează-te tu! S-a găsit...”).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Acoperiți de un praf de nepătruns, călătorii din troleibuzul nemăturat de cel puțin o săptămână își continuă traseul. Aproape de stația Centru, conductorul troleibuzului își manifestă în public nemulțumirea ei față de viitoare majorare a tarifului la energie, susținând faptul că și taxa de 1,50 lei s-a putea modifica. La rândul său nemulțumit, un călător îi dă o replică de completare. O doamnă mai de vârsta a treia care stătea pe scaun s-a dat și ea cu părerea. Nemulțumită și revoltată, femeia a exclamant: „Вот и Алиянца!” („Iată și Alianța” n.r. &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;pentru Integrare Europeană&lt;/span&gt;). Domnișoara din stânga ei i-a dat un zâmbet ironic spunând în română: „Cu comuniștii cred că v-a fost mai bine!” Doamna revine cu replica: „А что эти делали?!  Хлеб уже стоит 6 лей” („Dar ce-au făcut aceștia?! Pâinea costă deja 6 lei”), apoi femeia a continuat în română: „Aiștea care au venit amu la conducere vor bani în valută deamu’. Că de aia se duce Filat așe des peste hotare. Da’ las că și Voronin o fost un „baran”, dar măcar acela fura, dar și la oameni dădea...” Cu cea din urmă replică troleibuzul a oprit în stația din Centru. Mulțimea s-a coborât, fiecare în grabă după treburile sale și subiectul s-a consumat.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-2062063798709869786?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/2062063798709869786/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=2062063798709869786' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/2062063798709869786'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/2062063798709869786'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2011/03/jelui-m-as-si-n-am-cui.html' title='Jelui-m-aș dar n-am cui'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-1koWiSTNVz0/TZMALW2Cf4I/AAAAAAAAAnE/ese-883_y2k/s72-c/CIMG0228.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-1956736436602041245</id><published>2011-03-23T19:06:00.004+02:00</published><updated>2011-03-23T19:21:26.146+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Grav accident în Iași</title><content type='html'>Accident cumplit luni, la Iași!

Acesta este cel mai oribil accident pe care l-am vazut vreodata în realitate și la TV.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-g0TC1emGnus/TYorwtMNDvI/AAAAAAAAAm8/C40VlYqXPlg/s1600/CIMG0026.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-g0TC1emGnus/TYorwtMNDvI/AAAAAAAAAm8/C40VlYqXPlg/s320/CIMG0026.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5587326403471019762" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-lhDr72zRoPE/TYorwJDUd7I/AAAAAAAAAm0/A1J4M5CZhM0/s1600/CIMG0022.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-lhDr72zRoPE/TYorwJDUd7I/AAAAAAAAAm0/A1J4M5CZhM0/s320/CIMG0022.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5587326393770080178" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-2Dy4DHhx51I/TYorvhtecdI/AAAAAAAAAms/stMYpTm0qms/s1600/CIMG0020.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-2Dy4DHhx51I/TYorvhtecdI/AAAAAAAAAms/stMYpTm0qms/s320/CIMG0020.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5587326383209476562" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-N8zmrikGQSk/TYorvbJgvOI/AAAAAAAAAmk/uTmeazJIN4w/s1600/CIMG0011.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-N8zmrikGQSk/TYorvbJgvOI/AAAAAAAAAmk/uTmeazJIN4w/s320/CIMG0011.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5587326381448019170" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-x_Z_nGAjfZc/TYoru9kd6FI/AAAAAAAAAmc/SE015wY-YQU/s1600/CIMG0003.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-x_Z_nGAjfZc/TYoru9kd6FI/AAAAAAAAAmc/SE015wY-YQU/s320/CIMG0003.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5587326373508016210" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-1956736436602041245?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/1956736436602041245/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=1956736436602041245' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/1956736436602041245'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/1956736436602041245'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2011/03/grav-accident-in-iasi.html' title='Grav accident în Iași'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-g0TC1emGnus/TYorwtMNDvI/AAAAAAAAAm8/C40VlYqXPlg/s72-c/CIMG0026.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-1114660870673308367</id><published>2011-03-19T21:23:00.002+02:00</published><updated>2011-03-19T21:25:28.638+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Banii noștri pe mașinile guvernanților</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-uSWVF-gsuuk/TYUCyYBAYeI/AAAAAAAAAmU/6mfv8JW9AmA/s1600/CIMG0115.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-uSWVF-gsuuk/TYUCyYBAYeI/AAAAAAAAAmU/6mfv8JW9AmA/s320/CIMG0115.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5585873977286353378" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Noi, cetățenii țării achităm taxe și impozite care împreună constituie bugetul de stat. Guvernanții gestionează acești bani așa cum cred ei de cuviință. Mulți dintre acești bani sunt folosiți pentru achiziționarea, dar și întreținerea mijloacelor de transport ale deputaților și miniștrilor. Și cum legea prevede ca aceste mașini să fie folosite exclusiv în scopuri de serviciu, iată că unii reprezentanți ai statului neglijează acest lucru și se plimbă cu mașinile de serviciu acolo unde le poftește inima.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mașina din imagine, înregistrată cu numere ce reprezintă Guvernul Republicii Moldova poate fi observată foarte des într-o zonă de locuințe din orașul Bălți.

Even if the negotiations with the European Union advance, the Moldovans live worse every day. Due to high prices on food, the people cannot afford to have a decent life. The employees have low incomes and it’s almost impossible to pay the utilities and buy enough food for one month.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ludmila, 28 years-old, is a social worker at a residential home in the second largest city of Moldova, Balti. She works with mentally-challenged children and spends 9 hours a day with them. She is divorced and has a child who goes to the kindergarten. She needs good financial resources in order to support her daughter. Ludmila receives a package with food from her mother every weekend, so she won’t starve. Being single is hard for her because she is being paid only 860 lei ($72) per month.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;In the last three months, the prices on food, transportation and utilities went up by more than 50%. The bread was 2.50 lei and during the last month it was marked up twice, and the final price rose to 3.80 lei for a loaf. The price of the “round bread” rose from 3.50 lei to 5 lei. The price on natural gas is getting more expensive every semester; the fuel became ridiculously expensive due to prices imposed by the foreign exporters. A liter of regular gas is 1 Euro ($1.38), these prices being the highest in the Moldovan history. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is a job crisis in Moldova. The people are desperate about finding a job, no matter how much the employers are willing to offer. Most of them don’t want to call out if the employer cuts their salaries with no reason. They say: “If you don’t like it, you can resign right now and there are plenty of people behind who wait for that job!” And this statement is right, because there so many people who are willing to work and cannot find a job. It’s hard, especially that every employer would use the financial crisis as a reason of not paying enough money to be able to live decent. &lt;br /&gt;A person who doesn’t have a house and rents an apartment would have to pay at least $100/month for rent, and another couple hundreds of dollars for utilities. Having a salary of $100 a month (the most people do), is not enough for living. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you’re analyzing the sources of income of the Moldovans, you’ll learn that most of the financial resources are coming from abroad, some family members working and sending money at home. In almost every second family from Moldova there is at least one person who works in another country, especially in the former Soviet countries where the Moldovans are not required to have a visa. Most of them work in constructions in Russia and Ukraine. Many women work in Turkey, Italy, Spain or Portugal, but in these cases they need a visa. Because of this need, many Moldovans apply for a Romanian passport which allows them the possibility to freely work in the European Union countries. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Moldovans are very pessimistic about the things getting better in the country by the end of the year. Many say that Moldova will live tougher moments this year, according to what’s going on in the country right now.&lt;br /&gt;The Republic of Moldova still has a political instability since April 2009. After 8 elections, the country doesn’t have a president.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-6096014088022965471?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/6096014088022965471/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=6096014088022965471' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/6096014088022965471'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/6096014088022965471'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2011/03/moldova-is-hit-by-deep-crisis-and.html' title='Moldova is hit by a deep crisis and unemployment'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-cHDHZszXC3I/TW61YOM8WXI/AAAAAAAAAl0/9CEinzi13EM/s72-c/Leaving.png' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-5390498559737742931</id><published>2011-01-28T21:18:00.007+02:00</published><updated>2011-01-28T22:19:43.250+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Lumea se revoltă - Egiptul e pe jar</title><content type='html'>Mii de persoane protestează pe străzile marilor orașe din Egipt de câteva zile. Oamenii cer demisia președintelui țării Hosni Mubarak, o persoană foarte autoritară care a impus un regim autocratic preț de 30 de ani. Protestul de astăzi s-a dezlănțuit în violențe, cel puțin o persoană fiind omorâtă. Autoritățile din Egipt au deconectat accesul la internet al tuturor cetățenilor pentru a nu se putea organiza și ieși la proteste în număr cât mai mare, dar și de a îngrădi răspândirea informațiilor cu privire la situația tensionată de aici, în exterior. Secretarul de stat american, Hillary Clinton a cerut administrației din Egipt să respecte dreptul oamenilor de a protesta pașnic. Clinton le cere, totodată, să instituie reformele promise în cadrul societății.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Autoritățile egiptene au dispus astăzi intervenția în forță a armatei naționale pentru a înlătura protestatarii. Jandarmii folosesc bastoane și gaze lacrimogene pentru îndepărtarea protestatarilor. Sute de persoane sunt ranite. Președintele țării le-a interzis oamenilor să nu mai circule între orele 18 și 7. În pofida acesteia, oamenii sunt în stradă și la această oră. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oare de ce președintele nu-și dă demisia dacă atâția oameni nu-l mai doresc și vor să-l dea jos cu orice preț? Oare poziția lui este mai scumpă decât viața a câtorva mii de persoane?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object width="416" height="374" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" id="ep"&gt;&lt;param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /&gt;&lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /&gt;&lt;param name="wmode" value="transparent" /&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://i.cdn.turner.com/cnn/.element/apps/cvp/3.0/swf/cnn_416x234_embed.swf?context=embed&amp;videoId=world/2011/01/28/idesk.egypt.open.cnn" /&gt;&lt;param name="bgcolor" value="#000000" /&gt;&lt;embed src="http://i.cdn.turner.com/cnn/.element/apps/cvp/3.0/swf/cnn_416x234_embed.swf?context=embed&amp;videoId=world/2011/01/28/idesk.egypt.open.cnn" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" bgcolor="#000000" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" width="416" wmode="transparent" height="374"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Protestele nu s-au oprit aici. După cele patru zile de manifestații violente în Egipt, și cetățenii Iordaniei au ieșit în stradă. Aceștia își manifestă nemulțumirea față de majorarea prețurilor la alimente în ultima perioadă, dar și față de existența corupției în sistemul lor politic. Iordanienii au luat exemplul celor din Tunisia, unde acum câteva zile oamenii au ieșit în stradă și acolo. Astăzi însă, manifestațiile dintre polițiști și protestatari au reapărut pe fondul investirii noului cabinet în fruntea țării.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Opoziția din Albania a comemorat astăzi, într-un mod pașnic, pierderile de vieți rezultate din urma protestelor care au avut loc și aici, acum o săptămână.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anul 2011 a început doar cu nemulțumiri în rândurile cetățenilor mai multor țări. Egipt, Tunisia, Albania, Iordania - sunt doar câteva dintre țările în care oamenii își doresc o răsturnare a conducerii țării, dacă nu prin mijloace pașnice, apoi prin mijloace violente. Să vedem care va fi următoarea țară ce va ajunge la apogeu și-și va manifesta nemulțumirea ieșind în stradă. Oare aceasta să fie ultima și/sau unica soluție pentru a face o schimbare într-o țară?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-5390498559737742931?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/5390498559737742931/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=5390498559737742931' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/5390498559737742931'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/5390498559737742931'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2011/01/lumea-se-revolta-egiptul-e-pe-jar.html' title='Lumea se revoltă - Egiptul e pe jar'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-163265072527547403</id><published>2011-01-27T00:34:00.007+02:00</published><updated>2011-01-27T00:51:15.978+02:00</updated><title type='text'>BBC World Service este lovit de criza financiară</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TUClBTlmpiI/AAAAAAAAAlo/1H2o_F9l3K8/s1600/BBC%2BWorld%2BService.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 134px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TUClBTlmpiI/AAAAAAAAAlo/1H2o_F9l3K8/s320/BBC%2BWorld%2BService.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5566630581286381090" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Compania media &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;BBC World Service&lt;/span&gt; din Marea Britanie întâmpină dificultăți financiare.

After almost three weeks of daily negociations between the center-righted parties who won the elections, the citizens of Moldova will be complimented on New Year's Eve by the president of the Parliament - Marian Lupu, the leader of Democratic Party. The Alliance for European Intergration 2 (AIE-2) was rebuilt and the coalition hopes that this political alliance will survive for the next four years. The Treaty of the Alliance was signed today by the Liberal Party, Democratic Party, and Liberal-Democratic Party. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Communist Party is in the opposition for the second time in Moldova's history since its independence. AIE-2 cannot guarantee that a president will be elected. It might happen the same play that has happened during last year, when the Moldovans didn't have a president because of only one vote!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Alliance for European Integration 2 doesn't have enough deputies in the new parliament in order to choose the president. The Communist Party will have to vote the Alliance's candidate, otherwise a political instability for one more year will be ensured in Moldova, and the citizens will have re-elections for the third time in a row.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Moldovans have a New Year present - being sure that there will be a parliament and a government for at least one year (2011).&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-5041539270012297224?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/5041539270012297224/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=5041539270012297224' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/5041539270012297224'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/5041539270012297224'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2010/12/moldova-has-new-leading-coalition.html' title='Moldova has a new leading coalition'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-2536485598738078239</id><published>2010-12-29T01:26:00.011+02:00</published><updated>2010-12-29T02:11:58.681+02:00</updated><title type='text'>The New York Times ne va taxa din 2011 pentru citirea știrilor</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TRp6rrZdm_I/AAAAAAAAAlQ/w6euEksm__o/s1600/New%2BYork%2BTimes.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 189px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TRp6rrZdm_I/AAAAAAAAAlQ/w6euEksm__o/s320/New%2BYork%2BTimes.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5555887981117414386" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Din ianuarie 2011 va trebui să plătim pentru a accesa articolele de pe site-ul cotidianului american &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;The New York Times.&lt;/span&gt; La începutul anului 2010, redacția a anunțat despre introducerea unei taxe de acces la conținutul de pe site. Se pare că criza economică a lovit dur și presa internațională. Cei de la New York Times doresc să urmeze calea „de succes” a cotidianului &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Wall Street Journal&lt;/span&gt; care de mai bine de un an percepe taxe pentru accesarea conținutului de pe site. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Directorul marelui cotidian New Yorkez, Arthur Sulzberger, Jr., a declarat în ianuarie 2010 că taxarea internauților nu va reduce considerabil numărul de cititori. El este convins că oamenii vor fi dispuși să plătească pentru știri. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cei care vor dispune de un abonament la versiunea printată a ziarului, vor avea acces gratuit la toate știrile din varianta electronică. Ceilalți vizitatori ai site-ului vor putea accesa gratuit un număr limitat de articole pe lună. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Urmează să vedem dacă cotidianul va rămâne cu același număr de cititori virtuali, sau dacă acesta va pierde un număr considerabil de devoratori de noutăți.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Tu ai fi dispus să plătești pentru conținutul on-line al publicațiilor?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Sursă imagine: The New York Times&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-2536485598738078239?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/2536485598738078239/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=2536485598738078239' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/2536485598738078239'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/2536485598738078239'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2010/12/new-york-times-ne-va-taxa-din-2011.html' title='The New York Times ne va taxa din 2011 pentru citirea știrilor'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TRp6rrZdm_I/AAAAAAAAAlQ/w6euEksm__o/s72-c/New%2BYork%2BTimes.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-5056774628578017289</id><published>2010-12-24T00:42:00.001+02:00</published><updated>2010-12-23T18:50:49.205+02:00</updated><title type='text'>5.813 cetățeni ai R. Moldova au obținut cetățenia română în 2010</title><content type='html'>Din ce în ce mai mulți basarabeni își cer drepturile. În anul 2010, au fost depuse peste 84.400 de cereri de redobândire a cetățeniei române. Cererile au venit din partea persoanelor care doresc să-și redobândească cetățenia pierdută din motive neimputabile lor.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dintre cererile depuse în anul 2010, Autoritatea Națională pentru Cetățenie a soluționat 5.813 dosare. Alte 30.000 de dosare restante din perioada 2002-2009 au fost soluționate în acest an. Surse din cadrul Autorității Naționale pentru Cetățenie au declarat pentru RoPress/RandyJournalism că termenul legal de soluționare a unei cereri de cetățenie este de 5 luni de la data în care se constată că dosarul este complet, acest lucru semnificând faptul există toate actele, iar acestea sunt valide, și s-au obținut avizele de la instituțiile cu care instituția conlucrează. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Autoritatea dezminte afirmațiile precum că ar exista o procedură de urgentare a redobândirii cetățeniei. „În Legea cetățeniei române nu există procedură de „urgentare”. Singura înlesnire existentă o constituie prevederea art. 8 referitoare la cetățenii care nu au mai avut cetățenie română și care o solicită astfel întâia oară”, au declarat aceleași surse din cadrul Autorității Naționale pentru Cetățenie. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Pentru &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;RoPress.eu&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-5056774628578017289?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/5056774628578017289/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=5056774628578017289' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/5056774628578017289'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/5056774628578017289'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2010/12/5813-cetateni-ai-r-moldova-au-obtinut.html' title='5.813 cetățeni ai R.

Nu am putut să nu merg și eu la un chioșc de ziare și să întreb: „Aveți ziarul Adevărul cu carte?” Era trecut de ora 10 și mi-era teamă că nu voi mai găsi ceea ce căutam. Spre surprinderea mea, am găsit-o. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Surprins am fost de faptul că nu m-am așteptat să mai găsesc ceva la acea oră, urmând exemplul românilor de peste Prut, unde oamenii stau la coadă de la ora 5 dimineața pentru a achiziționa o carte. Până în ora 7, toate stocurile se epuizează. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;La &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Bălți&lt;/span&gt;, din câte se pare, publicul nu este atât de interesat de o lectură de calitate. Sau un alt motiv ar putea fi faptul că majoritatea oamenilor sunt vorbitori de limbă rusă. Tind să cred însă că vânzările reduse de astăzi se datorează unei informări precare, evenimentul fiind promovat mai mult în media on-line, la care nu toți cetățenii au acces.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mă bucură nespus faptul că redacția Adevărul Moldova urmează aceeași traiectorie ca și fratele său de peste Prut - educă publicul. Republica Moldova chiar are nevoie de o carte bună, iar venirea acesteia în casele oamenilor de aici nu face altceva decât să cultiveze inteligența oamenilor. Ascensiunea unui popor se bazează nu doar pe aspecte economice și materiale, ci în primul rând pe elementele morale, cultura oamenilor având întâietate într-o societate civilizată. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Să sperăm că inițiativa se va bucura de un succes cel puțin similar cu cel din România. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Adevărule, bine ai venit și în casele noastre!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-5968906736850042013?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/5968906736850042013/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=5968906736850042013' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/5968906736850042013'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/5968906736850042013'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2010/12/colectiile-de-carte-adevarul-au-ajuns.html' title='Colecțiile de carte Adevărul au ajuns și în Moldova'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TRMUje_4knI/AAAAAAAAAk8/6xZfCP1tWWI/s72-c/CIMG0276.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-8975021702797982185</id><published>2010-12-22T18:16:00.005+02:00</published><updated>2010-12-24T14:11:57.512+02:00</updated><title type='text'>„Limba noastră” cea corectă</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TRIoF0GWGEI/AAAAAAAAAk0/kz9jWoPhRvg/s1600/CIMG0243.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TRIoF0GWGEI/AAAAAAAAAk0/kz9jWoPhRvg/s320/CIMG0243.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5553545370850957378" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Impactul limbii ruse își lasă amprenta la Bălți. Din ce în ce mai multe greșeli de limbă română pot fi văzute fără prea mare efort atunci când faci o tură prin magazinele din oraș. Vorbitorii de limbă română au fost corupți în perioada Uniunii Sovietice prin impunerea limbii ruse ca limbă de stat. Rezultatul este vizibil chiar și la 19 ani de la declararea independenței Republicii Moldova și reintroducerea alfabetului latin.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Orașul Bălți a fost una dintre cele mai afectate localități de influența rusească, aici rămânând și astăzi o importantă „minoritate” etnică rusă și ucraineană.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Imaginea prezentată este afișată în magazinul „Cristina” din centrul orașului.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nici site-ul oficial al Primăriei din Bălți nu se lasă mai prejos. Aceștia introduc un nou termen în vocabularul limbii române - „ghișău”. Oficialii din primărie țin să ne anunțe neapărat de faptul că munca acestora se „închie” la ora 17. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TRSN5F_yxkI/AAAAAAAAAlE/3QakS8N7yzI/s1600/Site-ul%2Bprimariei%2BBalti.png"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 198px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TRSN5F_yxkI/AAAAAAAAAlE/3QakS8N7yzI/s320/Site-ul%2Bprimariei%2BBalti.png" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5554220252456470082" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Vă las pe voi să descoperiți mai multe „neologisme” în poza alăturată.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-8975021702797982185?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/8975021702797982185/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=8975021702797982185' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/8975021702797982185'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/8975021702797982185'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2010/12/limba-noastra-cea-corecta.html' title='„Limba noastră” cea corectă'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TRIoF0GWGEI/AAAAAAAAAk0/kz9jWoPhRvg/s72-c/CIMG0243.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-3414325073576382776</id><published>2010-12-20T14:20:00.007+02:00</published><updated>2010-12-20T15:34:33.553+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Conflictul din Coreea - un eșec ONU?</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TQ9PeAxjREI/AAAAAAAAAks/Od6HvSaCVGA/s1600/Consiliul%2Bde%2BSecuritate%2BONU.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TQ9PeAxjREI/AAAAAAAAAks/Od6HvSaCVGA/s320/Consiliul%2Bde%2BSecuritate%2BONU.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5552744242593612866" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;După secole întregi de conflicte militare, secolul în care trăim aduce noi provocări la adresa securității naționale și internaționale. Statele au căzut de comun acord să coopereze în acest context. Ele s-au aliat în blocuri militare regionale  - NATO, în structuri la nivel mondial – ONU, cu scopul de a promova pacea și securitatea mondială. Principul NATO – orice atac asupra unui stat NATO va fi considerat un atentat la adresa securității tuturor statele din bloc, este eficient și a putut să prevină izbucnirea unor războaie în aceste state. ONU însă, în pofida structurii terifiant de complicate pe care o are, se pare a fi ineficientă atunci când vine vorba despre aplanarea conflictelor internaționale.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Duminică, Consiliul de Securitate al ONU s-a reunit într-o ședință extraordinară pentru a discuta pe marginea conflictului dintre Coreea de Nord și Coreea de Sud, la solicitarea Rusiei. După opt ore de discuții, cele 15 state din cadrul Consiliului de Securitate nu au ajuns la un rezultat. Cu alte cuvinte, țările nu au reușit să propună o soluție pentru aplanarea conflictului care ar putea duce la izbucnirea celui de-al Treilea Război Mondial. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Formată după modelul Ligii Națiunilor, Oranizația Națiunilor Unite nu reușește nici de această dată să intervină eficient într-un conflict armat care se poate transfora oricând într-unul nuclear, devenind astfel o amenințare la adresa securității întregii lumi. ONU nu reușește să respecte primul scop stipulat în Cartă: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;să mențină pacea și securitatea internațională și, în acest scop: să ia măsuri colective eficace pentru prevenirea și înlăturarea amenințărilor împotriva păcii și pentru reprimarea oricăror acte de agresiune sau altor încălcări ale păcii și să înfăptuiască, prin mijloace pașnice și în conformitate cu principiile justiției și dreptului internațional, aplanarea ori rezolvarea diferendelor sau situațiilor cu caracter internațional care ar putea duce la o încălcare a păcii. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Analizând aceste cuvinte menționate în Cartă, observăm ineficiența ONU. Potrivit Articolului 33 (1), din Carta ONU cu privire la rezolvarea pașnică a diferendelor,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;părțile la orice diferend a cărui prelungire ar putea pune în primejdie menținerea păcii și securității internaționale trebuie să caute să-l rezolve, înainte de toate, prin tratative, anchetă, mediație, conciliere, arbitraj, pe care judiciară, recurgere la organizații sau acorduri regionale sau prin alte mijloace pașnice, la alegerea lor. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Întrebarea este cum va reuși ONU să oblige cele două Corei să participe la astfel de negocieri, dat fiind faptul că unele țări, precum SUA, susțin demararea manevrelor militare de către Coreea de Sud. Observăm că tratativele duse aseară de către Consiliul de Securitate al ONU s-au soldat cu eșec, iar acordurile regionale nu-și mai au efectul. O simplă semnătură depusă de un oficial nu reprezintă, în viziunea multor state, un lucru important, aceștia pundând interesul național mai presus de toate, idee promovată și de teoria realistă. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Conflictul din peninsula Coreea s-ar putea transforma într-unul de rang mondial pe măsură ce intervenția Statelor Unite va fi iminentă. SUA, fiind membră NATO ar putea cere și ajutorul statelor din bloc, și astfel încă 27 de state s-ar putea implica, mai mult sau mai puțin în acest război, căpătând astfel un caracter mondial. Europa ar avea cel mai mult de suferit de pe urma acestui conflict, deoarece presupusele atacuri cu arme nucleare ale Coreei de Nord asupra SUA ar trece pe deasupra bătrânului continent.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Acest conflict ne va arăta dacă în secolul XXI omenirea a evoluat spre o modalitate pașnică de soluționare a diferendelor, bazată pe diplomația preventivă, sau dacă am rămas încă la stadiul luptei cu bățul.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Sursă foto: UN Photo/Rick Bajornas&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img style="visibility:hidden;width:0px;height:0px;" border=0 width=0 height=0 src="http://c.gigcount.com/wildfire/IMP/CXNID=2000002.0NXC/bT*xJmx*PTEyOTI4NTE4NzE5NTAmcHQ9MTI5Mjg1MTg4ODYxMSZwPTUzMTUxJmQ9Jmc9MSZvPWQyNWI*ZTk1ZDllZTQ5NWJhNjUz/MDVjODUzZWRkOTkz.gif" /&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.xatech.com/web_gear/poll/pollv.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#000000" width="160" height="350" name="poll" FlashVars="id=3213362" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.xat.com/update_flash.shtml" /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a target="_BLANK" href="http://www.xat.com/web_gear/?p"&gt;Get your own Poll!&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-3414325073576382776?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/3414325073576382776/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=3414325073576382776' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/3414325073576382776'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/3414325073576382776'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2010/12/conflictul-din-coreea-un-esec-onu.html' title='Conflictul din Coreea - un eșec ONU?'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TQ9PeAxjREI/AAAAAAAAAks/Od6HvSaCVGA/s72-c/Consiliul%2Bde%2BSecuritate%2BONU.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-5985684832102550979</id><published>2010-12-03T01:14:00.006+02:00</published><updated>2010-12-03T01:20:55.797+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Summitul OSCE nu a schimbat nimic pe scena internațională</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TPgoy9MvGWI/AAAAAAAAAkk/Qrmhvp8lH_M/s1600/AT2H5491.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TPgoy9MvGWI/AAAAAAAAAkk/Qrmhvp8lH_M/s320/AT2H5491.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5546227796993317218" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Summitul OSCE din capitala Kazakhstanului a avut loc în perioada 1-2 decembrie 2010. Întâlnirea de rang înalt a 56 de reprezentanți din statele participante și alți 12 parteneri de cooperare nu a atins așteptările multor șefi de stat, pe motiv că nu au reușit să adopte un plan de acțiune pentru consolidarea acestei organizații internaționale.   &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oficialii au dispus însă adoptarea unui act intitulat „Declarația Comemorativă de la Astana: spre o securitate comună” în care sunt stipulate principiile OSCE.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;„Chiar dacă am înregistrat un mare progres, suntem conștienți de faptul că sunt încă multe de făcut pentru a putea asigura respectul și implementarea principiilor și angajamentelor pe care ni le-am asumat în dimensiunea politico-militară, economică și de mediu, în dimensiunea umană, precum și în domenii ale drepturilor omului și libertăților fundamentate”, se spune în declarație. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Secretarul de Stat al SUA, Hillary Clinton, prezentă la summit, a făcut referire la multe conflicte înghețate din Europa de Est și Asia. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;„Afganistanul este un conflict unde OSCE poate și trebuie să joace un rol însemnat. Este încurajator faptul că Rusia recunoaște importanța ameliorării capacităților noastre existente”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nici problema transnistreană nu a rămas neatinsă. Oficialul american a menționat faptul că negocierile în formatul „5+2” trebuie reluate. „Sperăm că activitatea acestui summit va chema spre reluarea, fără întârziere, a formatului de negocieri „5+2” pentru a rezolva conflictul din Moldova și va identifica pașii care să promoveze transparență în procesul de demilitarizare a regiunii, care va coincide cu obiectivele, principiile și angajamentele OSCE”, a spus Hillary Clinton.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Speranțe și dorințe exprimate, vorbe multe și frumoase, au fost spuse la acest summit, dar nicio decizie concretă nu a fost luată și nicio acțiune exercitată. Declarațiile oficialilor la aceste summituri sunt, de multe ori, de umplutură și inutile, plictisind publicul antrenat în discuție. Toți s-au săturat de promisiuni, vorbe multe și declarații oficiale. Chiar și președintele interimar al Republicii Moldova, Mihai Ghimpu, a declarat că nu a mers la summit pe motiv că nu mai are ce discuta, odată ce de câțiva ani a tot cerut retragerea trupelor din Transnistria, iar Rusia nu a dat ascultare acestor cuvinte. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Când oare se vor învăța mai marii oficiali să aplice în practică ceea ce enunță în mod public? Sau poate asta este meseria diplomației – de a vorbi mult, frumos și convingător, însă acțiunile concrete rămânând la discreția părților, importantă fiind partea oratorică. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Chiar dacă în medierea diferendului transnistrean sunt implicate mai multe părți (Republica Moldova, Ucraina, Rusia, Transnistria și OSCE – ca mediatori, iar SUA și Uniunea Europeană - ca observatori), aceștia nu au reușit să facă nimic concret în această problemă, armamentul rusesc staționând și în acest moment pe teritoriul de peste Nistru al Moldovei. Și atunci la ce bun toate aceste discuții?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Sursă imagine: summit2010.osce.org&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-5985684832102550979?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/5985684832102550979/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=5985684832102550979' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/5985684832102550979'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/5985684832102550979'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2010/12/summitul-osce-nu-schimbat-nimic-pe.html' title='Summitul OSCE nu a schimbat nimic pe scena internațională'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TPgoy9MvGWI/AAAAAAAAAkk/Qrmhvp8lH_M/s72-c/AT2H5491.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-1882747923178412898</id><published>2010-12-01T11:38:00.004+02:00</published><updated>2010-12-01T12:04:51.792+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Ziua Națională a României fără Basarabia</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TPYdpYdBifI/AAAAAAAAAkc/BOx9_v_94AA/s1600/Alba-Iulia.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 262px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TPYdpYdBifI/AAAAAAAAAkc/BOx9_v_94AA/s320/Alba-Iulia.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5545652587929373170" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Astăzi se sărbătoresc 92 de ani de la Marea Unire a pricipatelor române. Sute de persoane din toate colțurile României de astăzi și Basarabia s-au adunat la Alba Iulia pentru a dansa Hora Unirii, orașul fiind locul unde în urmă cu 92 de ani unirea a fost înfăptuită. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Evenimentul este marcat și în alte orașe ale României. La București, la Iași, la Cluj oamenii depun coroane de flori și arborează drapele. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oare cum pot românii să celebreze Ziua Unirii fără Basarabia? Suntem despărțiți de 70 de ani, timp în care ne-am înstrăinat. Au fost puse granițe de sârmă, vămi, controale și mai recent, vize. Chiar dacă sârma a fost scoasă, încă suntem divizați în două state. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Atunci ce semnifică Ziua Națională pentru români?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-1882747923178412898?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/1882747923178412898/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=1882747923178412898' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/1882747923178412898'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/1882747923178412898'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2010/12/ziua-nationala-romaniei-fara-basarabia.html' title='Ziua Națională a României fără Basarabia'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TPYdpYdBifI/AAAAAAAAAkc/BOx9_v_94AA/s72-c/Alba-Iulia.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-7306009771123464726</id><published>2010-11-30T20:30:00.000+02:00</published><updated>2010-11-30T20:30:16.837+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Moldova's destiny after elections is uncertain</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TPVCXnx2jwI/AAAAAAAAAkU/6jvhYTV70w0/s1600/Moldova-west-east.png"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 103px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TPVCXnx2jwI/AAAAAAAAAkU/6jvhYTV70w0/s320/Moldova-west-east.png" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5545411489759137538" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Despite the massive number of the people who voted (60%), Moldova might have another year of political crisis.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Thousands of Moldovan students who study in Romanian Universities massively voted on Sunday. Lines of people were formed in front of the Consulates of Moldova in Romania. The teenagers voted for a change in their country. They want a democratic society and want to return home to continue the reforms.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;After the results, the students became very disappointed and many of them say that they have no more reasons to go back to Moldova after they graduate. This is the third time in the last two years when Moldova is trying to elect a president. Being a Parliamentary Democracy, the voters elect the party that would represent them, and the party elects the president.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Most of the elderlies vote for the Communists. The teenagers want a liberal-democratic future of the country and they vote for the democratic and liberal parties. The Communist Party got 39% of the votes and the Liberal-Democratic Party - 29%.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-7306009771123464726?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/7306009771123464726/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=7306009771123464726' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/7306009771123464726'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/7306009771123464726'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2010/11/moldovas-destiny-after-elections-is.html' title='Moldova&apos;s destiny after elections is uncertain'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TPVCXnx2jwI/AAAAAAAAAkU/6jvhYTV70w0/s72-c/Moldova-west-east.png' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-2660073293150783337</id><published>2010-11-30T18:38:00.006+02:00</published><updated>2010-11-30T18:50:08.348+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Alegerile din Moldova în vizorul presei străine</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TPUqkl6-c2I/AAAAAAAAAkM/62AQoeDkdg4/s1600/lupu.png"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 192px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TPUqkl6-c2I/AAAAAAAAAkM/62AQoeDkdg4/s320/lupu.png" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5545385324319765346" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Presa internațională a scris din plin despre alegerile din Republica Moldova. Din România, până în Statele Unite, Marea Britanie și alte țări - au reflectat obiectiv sau mai puțin obiectiv rezultatele finale. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Postul american de televiziune CNN s-a grăbit să susțină că Moldova va avea o guvernare pro-occidentală, înainte ca rezultatele oficiale să fie anunțate. Cea mai obiectivă s-a dovedit a fi agenția Associated Press care a avut șapte corespondenți special trimiși în Republica Moldova pentru a scrie despre alegeri. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nici presa din România nu s-a dat la o parte. Rezultatele alegerilor au ținut prima pagină a marilor cotidiene din țară. În ediția de astăzi a celui mai citit ziar din România, &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Adevărul&lt;/span&gt; apare un titlu interesant: „Un' te duci tu, Lupule?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Din ce în ce tot mai multe comentarii pe marginea acestui subiect pot fi auzite la radio.

În SUA există o lege care este și aplicată, și presupune amendarea persoanelor care încalcă drepturile de autor. &lt;br /&gt;Piratarea muzicii și a filmelor îți poate aduce o amenda de 250.000 $ sau privațiune de libertate de până la cinci ani.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dac-ar fi ca aceeași lege să fie aplicată și la noi, apoi cu siguranță că 90 % dintre studenți ar fi amendați sau închiși pe același motiv. Recent, siteul de torrent din Republica Moldova a fost închis pe motiv că încălca drepturile de autor, dar acesta a fost redeschis la cererea primului ministru. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Acesta este și unul dintre motivele principale care explică numărul din ce în ce mai redus al persoanelor care vizionează un film în cinematografe. Fiecare internaut având acces la cele mai noi filme, nu mai dorește să se deranjeze și să meargă la cinema. Aceeași situație o întâmpină și muzica, software-urile, dar și cărțile on-line cu drept de autor.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oare ar putea internauții români să renunțe la piraterie în favoarea plății pentru pentru materialele achiziționate?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-5932605214081942141?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/5932605214081942141/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=5932605214081942141' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/5932605214081942141'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/5932605214081942141'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2010/11/pirateria-online-se-pedepseste-in-sua.html' title='Pirateria online se pedepsește în SUA!'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TPC0pLlOzDI/AAAAAAAAAjs/L3fikV2rSPs/s72-c/Piracy.png' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-978670353462888238</id><published>2010-11-19T20:36:00.003+02:00</published><updated>2010-11-22T00:54:27.543+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Moldova has the choice: go to the future or go back to the past</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TOmjBQjUI1I/AAAAAAAAAjc/tSoufpdLhHQ/s1600/CIMG0301.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 150px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TOmjBQjUI1I/AAAAAAAAAjc/tSoufpdLhHQ/s320/CIMG0301.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5542140058474390354" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Moldova is getting closer to the new presidential elections that will be held on November 28. After the failure of the Alliance for European Integration to elect the president, the Moldovans are called again to the polls. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;According to a recent survey, the Liberal-Democratic Party could win the elections. On the second place could be the Communist Party, followed by the Democratic Party, and Liberal Party. It’s uncertain who might win the elections, because a few days ago, another survey revealed that the Communist Party could win the elections and be able to elect the president, Moldova being a parliamentary democracy. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The referendum held on September 5 in Moldova was a failure, because only 30 percent of the people voted. It did not meet the necessary amount of votes in order to be considered valid.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Moldovan students who study in Romania are urging everyone to vote on November 28. They are afraid of a new communist governance. The students got the right to have free transportation throughout Romania during the day of elections in order to be able to go to one of eight polling sections that will be opened in Romania. &lt;br /&gt;Hoping that Moldova will have a pro-Western governance, the teenagers are looking forward to that day!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-978670353462888238?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/978670353462888238/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=978670353462888238' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/978670353462888238'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/978670353462888238'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2010/11/moldova-has-choice-go-to-future-or-go.html' title='Moldova has the choice: go to the future or go back to the past'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TOmjBQjUI1I/AAAAAAAAAjc/tSoufpdLhHQ/s72-c/CIMG0301.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-7964154067389248804</id><published>2010-11-11T23:24:00.005+02:00</published><updated>2010-11-11T23:33:53.334+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Moldova has expensive apartments, comparing to the EU countries</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TNxhFw3MqfI/AAAAAAAAAjU/mzisNep2Y2Y/s1600/CIMG0807.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TNxhFw3MqfI/AAAAAAAAAjU/mzisNep2Y2Y/s320/CIMG0807.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5538408393402526194" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The prices on apartments in Moldova have raised a lot in the past three years. Comparing to some European capitals, a one-room apartment in the Moldovan capital, Chisinau, would cost between 23.000 Euro to 36.000 Euro, depending on the location of the apartment and the building’s utilities. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A one-room apartment in the second largest city of Moldova, Balti, would be a little bit cheaper that in the capital. The price varies between 12.000 Euro to 23.000 Euro. &lt;br /&gt;Many people from Moldova began to invest their money in apartments because it’s the most stable and safest way to protect your money. After the Russian currency collapsed in the ‘90s, the people are afraid of keeping their money in banks. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Having a job in Moldova won’t let you buy an apartment. The people go to work abroad in countries like Russia, Italy, Portugal or Spain, where are getting paid better. With this money they return home and start investing them in apartments or renewing their old homes. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A one-room apartment in the Romania’s capital, Bucharest, would cost between 18.000 Euro to 128.000 Euro. A one-room apartment in the Romanian city of Iasi would be 19.000 Euro up to 50.000 Euro. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Considering that Romania is a European capital, everyone can find cheaper one-room apartments in Bucharest than in Chisinau, where the prices start from 23.000 Euro.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-7964154067389248804?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/7964154067389248804/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=7964154067389248804' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/7964154067389248804'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/7964154067389248804'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2010/11/moldova-has-expensive-apartments.html' title='Moldova has expensive apartments, comparing to the EU countries'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TNxhFw3MqfI/AAAAAAAAAjU/mzisNep2Y2Y/s72-c/CIMG0807.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-8696219147093764809</id><published>2010-11-08T01:32:00.004+02:00</published><updated>2010-11-08T02:28:03.234+02:00</updated><title type='text'>The unemployment rate has increased in Romania</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TNc3SLYDzmI/AAAAAAAAAjM/17zemfWx8A0/s1600/jobless.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 213px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TNc3SLYDzmI/AAAAAAAAAjM/17zemfWx8A0/s320/jobless.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5536955052306189922" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By the end of September, there were more than 670.000 jobless people in Romania. Most of them are recent graduates who have a degree, but don’t have enough experience to be hired. The Romanian Government announces that there will be 760.000 jobless people by the end of this year, because many of them will be fired. The Romanian unemployment rate is about 8,5%.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This fact causes the massive immigration of Romanians to the Western countries, such as Italy, France, Great Britain, Spain or even Canada and USA. Since 2007 when Romania joined the European Union, the citizens can travel and work throughout the whole European space with no restrictions.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-8696219147093764809?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/8696219147093764809/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=8696219147093764809' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/8696219147093764809'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/8696219147093764809'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2010/11/jobless-rate-has-increased-in-romania.html' title='The unemployment rate has increased in Romania'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TNc3SLYDzmI/AAAAAAAAAjM/17zemfWx8A0/s72-c/jobless.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-4898834506739525409</id><published>2010-11-02T19:38:00.002+02:00</published><updated>2010-11-02T19:42:30.373+02:00</updated><title type='text'>The Moldovan flights are very expensive</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TNBM9EeNwPI/AAAAAAAAAjE/ndkOzRXMnxY/s1600/CIMG9589.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TNBM9EeNwPI/AAAAAAAAAjE/ndkOzRXMnxY/s320/CIMG9589.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5535008554094543090" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Moldova has one of the most expensive airlines networks in Europe. There are 13 airlines that are operating in Moldova’s capital, Chisinau, the only international airport. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Air Moldova is the airline that makes most of the flights from Moldova to other parts of the world. Almost 50 percent of the flights belong to them. Air Moldova is being a very expensive airline comparing to other airlines from Europe. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Moldova has never had low cost companies. In this way, the Moldovan airport loses its passengers. Most of those who have to travel a long way would rather prefer to fly from Bucharest, Romania or Kiev, Ukraine in order to fly cheaper. The airport doesn't attract any other airlines because of a bad runaway infrastructure.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In Moldova operate 13 airlines: Air Moldova, Moldavian Airlines, Austrian Airlines, CarpatAir, AirBaltic, Turkish Airlines, Tandem Aero, Siberia Airlines, Malev, Tarom, Meridiana, Lufthansa, and AtlasJet.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-4898834506739525409?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/4898834506739525409/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=4898834506739525409' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/4898834506739525409'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/4898834506739525409'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2010/11/moldovan-flights-are-very-expensive.html' title='The Moldovan flights are very expensive'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TNBM9EeNwPI/AAAAAAAAAjE/ndkOzRXMnxY/s72-c/CIMG9589.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-562144664430042162</id><published>2010-10-27T13:20:00.013+03:00</published><updated>2010-10-27T18:26:59.281+03:00</updated><title type='text'>The Romanians are rallying against their government</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TMgESIn9zPI/AAAAAAAAAi0/DidpIRre3Xg/s1600/Protest-1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 180px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TMgESIn9zPI/AAAAAAAAAi0/DidpIRre3Xg/s320/Protest-1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5532676851823922418" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;More than 30.000 people have gathered today in the Romania’s capital Bucharest to protest the austerity measures applied by the Romanian government. The parliament is having a motion of no-confidence today. The Social Democratic Party (PSD) wants the government to resign. They organized a massive movement of the people from around the country to rally against their government today, during the motion of no-confidence. Tens of buses were entering Bucharest by 9 AM. The traffic is partly blocked in the Romanian capital. A couple hundred peace officers have surrounded the Parliament, keeping the people away from the building. The protesters are still gathering at this time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Teachers, students, policemen, doctors, nurses, and many other employees from all around the country rally at this time in Bucharest. They are dissatisfied about the wage cut of 25% from their salaries. Many other people lost their jobs. The taxes have increased from 19% to 24% due to the austerity measures.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TMgLl6awezI/AAAAAAAAAi8/Qr4mBKhGhoU/s1600/Protest-2.png"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 200px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TMgLl6awezI/AAAAAAAAAi8/Qr4mBKhGhoU/s320/Protest-2.png" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5532684888189205298" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Romanian prime-minister, Emil Boc is having a speech at this time (1 PM – Romanian Time). &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Romania is currently living a tough economic crisis.

The people have the right to be upset, but they also have the right to know the truth,” Emil Boc said. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;According to Antena 3, a Romanian TV Station, a team of journalists were trying to enter the parliament during the debate, but some security guards didn’t let them enter. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;UPDATE 4&lt;/span&gt; The motion of no-confidence set up by the opposition parties was rejected.

The country is not only like in the pictures presented. There are people that are rich and have beautiful houses. But not too many people are able to build a house like the one in the pictures while working in Moldova. Due to low salaries, the people have to work abroad, mostly in Russia, Italy, Spain, Portugal and Greece. After they return home, many would start building a big house until all the money are gone and then return to the other countries to work again.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TKTsbU-fAuI/AAAAAAAAAik/M9c7nBqQNVY/s1600/CIMG0734.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:right; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TKTsbU-fAuI/AAAAAAAAAik/M9c7nBqQNVY/s320/CIMG0734.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5522798997294482146" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are people, mostly politicians detain most of the factories. These turned into businesses, while the middle and low class inhabitants are struggling with finding a job with a minimum payment for survival.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These houses are more often built in the cities, where the quality of life is a lot better than in the villages or small towns. You can always see a big difference between a city and a village.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-5023356995566894884?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/5023356995566894884/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=5023356995566894884' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/5023356995566894884'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/5023356995566894884'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2010/09/modern-houses-in-big-cities-of-moldova.html' title='Modern houses in the big cities of Moldova'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TKTsaySVDwI/AAAAAAAAAic/TDkRyv3RQYs/s72-c/CIMG0732.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-4376435919654626495</id><published>2010-09-28T21:59:00.007+03:00</published><updated>2010-09-30T22:02:25.325+03:00</updated><title type='text'>The Moldovan villages advance in a deep poverty</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TKI7mC1JVfI/AAAAAAAAAiE/hkDRAWCYTvQ/s1600/CIMG0717.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TKI7mC1JVfI/AAAAAAAAAiE/hkDRAWCYTvQ/s320/CIMG0717.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5522041617890498034" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Moldovan villages are struggling with a tough poverty. Since the collapse of the USSR, all the factories and plants are closed and destroyed. The economy is down and the people have no jobs. The recession didn’t affect the people from the Moldovan villages because they were already in poverty and hard living before the world recession.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Almost every single family has one parent who is working abroad in order to financially support their household. Houses with children remain alone, maybe with one parent or some relatives. In this way, the population of the villages and small towns is decreasing. No stores or any other industries are working here. The health care system is very weak and many people have to travel kilometers away in order to find a pharmacy or a hospital. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TKI91LnBeQI/AAAAAAAAAiU/NoIZf6mjtPI/s1600/CIMG0720.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TKI91LnBeQI/AAAAAAAAAiU/NoIZf6mjtPI/s320/CIMG0720.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5522044076968474882" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The roads look like after the war. They were not rebuilt since the USSR collapse. New houses are not built because the people have no enough money. Most of the people work in constructions in Moscow, Russia for months and send the money back home. This is the only source of financing of most of the Moldovan families. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TKI74ARtHhI/AAAAAAAAAiM/OAr9MMIdYGI/s1600/CIMG0728.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TKI74ARtHhI/AAAAAAAAAiM/OAr9MMIdYGI/s320/CIMG0728.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5522041926442622482" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A high qualified nurse in Moldova is paid $100 - $120 a month. A high school teacher is paid around $100 a month. It is extremely difficult to live with a salary like this, due to the high prices on gas, electricity, water and other utilities. The best qualitative fuel in Moldova cost $1.20/liter. &lt;br /&gt;The governmental taxes are 20% on everything – food, books, electronics, cigarettes, alcohol, gas, clothing. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At the same time, since April 2009, Moldova is struggling with a political crisis, as well.

It has proclaimed its independence from the USSR on August 27, 1991. Romanian is the national language, and Russian is spoken by many citizens as a second language. Moldova celebrates the Day of the Romanian Language on August 31.&lt;br /&gt;The country is a parliamentary democracy, having a president and a prime-minister. The Parliament is formed of 101 seats. So far, Moldova had four presidents. Its constitution was adopted on July 29, 1994.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With a population of 4 million people, the every fifth citizen is under 18. According to a research made by The United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF), every third child lives in poverty. One out of three children has their parents working abroad, and one out of ten children has their both parents working in another country. The children’s education is affected by the migration process of their parents who go to other countries to find a job. The minors remain at home with their grandparents or relatives, or worse – by themselves. The access to education is strongly related to the social environment they live in. The families that work in agriculture are worst paid and they cannot afford enough money to let their children attend a high school or get a university degree. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In 2008 there were born 38,367 children. The rate of infantile deaths among the newborns was 12,1 out of 1000 in 2008. The mothers’ health and the sanitary conditions in the hospitals are some of the reasons of the infantile deaths. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;According to the same research, by the end of 2008, there have been registered 4,996 people infested with the HIV. The teenagers aged 20-29 are the most amenable to this disease. They count 52 percent of the cases out of 100. Some teenagers that live in the rural areas have less access to the information and they are less educated about the sexually-transmitted diseases and the unwanted pregnancies. By 2010, the HIV number of infections has decreased in Moldova. A few years ago, many people in the urban areas used to consume drugs, another way of spreading the disease. Once some courses about the Healthy Habits of the teenagers were taught in school, the students became more attentive to their habits. Still, there are many other issues to worry about. More girls began to smoke, and the boys would drink more alcohol. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The social issues that the country is facing determine the teenagers take these decisions. When the parents aren’t home, they don’t get the parental education they are supposed to. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Picture courteasy of readytolearnmom.com&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-2671942465018264035?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/2671942465018264035/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=2671942465018264035' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/2671942465018264035'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/2671942465018264035'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2010/08/moldovas-new-generation-is-struggling.html' title='The Moldova’s new generation is struggling with the social issues'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/THv4bhFJh9I/AAAAAAAAAho/fA2CDMTIPPc/s72-c/parentchild.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-2340859203620286164</id><published>2010-08-27T03:27:00.004+03:00</published><updated>2010-08-27T03:44:41.621+03:00</updated><title type='text'>Republic of Moldova - 19 years of independence</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/THcG8ySGB8I/AAAAAAAAAhY/tcsmmnew1cA/s1600/Flag-19.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 286px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/THcG8ySGB8I/AAAAAAAAAhY/tcsmmnew1cA/s320/Flag-19.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5509880310470674370" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On August 27, 1991, Moldova, a former Soviet Republic gained its independency. The people didn’t want to be under the Soviet coverage anymore and decided to go apart. Many countries did the same. The Soviet parliament was dissolved and Russia took the most important goods of the USSR – the financial resources, and the weaponry. All the newly appeared republics joined the Community of Independent States (CSI). Every country formed their parliament, government and the national defense system. &lt;br /&gt;Republic of Moldova is celebrating 19 years since it became an independent state. It was a part of the Soviet Union since June 28, 1940 when it was occupied by the USSR through Ribbentrop-Molotov pact which was signed between USSR and Germany on August 23, 1939. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After 19 years of independence, Republic of Moldova is looking forward to join the European Union, but there are still many issues that need to be solved. The breakaway part of Moldova, a region in the Eastern part of the country named Transnistria (Transdniestr) is being a bone of contention between Moldova and Russia. Russia still keeps a part of its army on this territory since 1992, named Army 14. The United Nations does not recognize the breakaway region as an independent country, neither does Moldova. However, Russia considers that Transnistria is a legal state, which has a president (Igor Smirnov), a government and a Ministry of Foreign Affairs which, as said before, does not have any international recognition. This geo-political issue is stopping the Republic of Moldova from its way to joining the European Union. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Since its independency, Moldova has had four presidents: Mircea Snegur (1990-1996), Petru Lucinschi (1996-2001), Vladimir Voronin (2001-2009) having two mandates, and the last one – Mihai Ghimpu, who is the acting president of Moldova at the moment. &lt;br /&gt;On the 5th of September there will be a &lt;a href="http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2010/08/moldova-is-called-to-referendum.html"&gt;Constitutional Referendum&lt;/a&gt; in Moldova. The people will be asked to vote on modification of the Article 78, which will propose to elect the president directly by the citizens. So far, the president was elected by the party that won the elections. If the answer will be FOR, the Moldovans will directly elect their president for the first time, in November this year. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After the former communist president Vladimir Voronin left his chair, Mihai Ghimpu, the current acting president, turned the country around and took another way, facing Pro-Western. Vladimir Voronin tried to keep the best international relations with Russia, neglecting Romania and breaking the neighbor relations with it. The new governance has started already the negotiations of a free travel in the UE by 2012. The political and cultural relations with Romania have improved. Romania’s government has recently offered a hundred million Euros on an irredeemable grant to Moldova. The US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton congratulated the new Moldovan government for the reforms they made so far and gave Moldova a grant, too. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Moldovan international relations have improved significantly. Now, depending on what the Moldovans want for their future, they will have the possibility to decide at the presidential/parliamentary elections that will be held in Moldova this year. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Moldova, Happy Independence Day!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-2340859203620286164?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/2340859203620286164/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=2340859203620286164' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/2340859203620286164'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/2340859203620286164'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2010/08/republic-of-moldova-19-years-of.html' title='Republic of Moldova - 19 years of independence'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/THcG8ySGB8I/AAAAAAAAAhY/tcsmmnew1cA/s72-c/Flag-19.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-998088224458806188</id><published>2010-08-20T23:30:00.001+03:00</published><updated>2010-08-22T19:21:12.115+03:00</updated><title type='text'>Moldova is called to the Referendum</title><content type='html'>The citizens of Moldova are being asked to vote on a Constitutional Referendum, which will be held on September 5.

According to a research made by Magenta Consulting, 70 percent of the Moldovans would go with pleasure to other countries.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;16 percent of them would emigrate to work, 17 percent would go to other countries temporarily, 9 out of 100 would like to study abroad, and only three of them would choose to travel as a tourist. Many of the students from Moldova believe that the studies from other European Union countries or from the United States are better, and give them a better chance to find a job after they graduate. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Most of the people who are more likely to work abroad are attracted by better salaries, better conditions of work and living. Russia is the most wanted destination of the Moldovans. Over 500,000 citizens of Moldova are working in Russia, especially in the city of Moscow. Other destinations preferred by them are Portugal, Italy, Spain, and Turkey. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The number of those who emigrate to other countries is increasing. The Moldovan government has a fear that the population of Moldova will decrease and it will have to deal with an old population.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The research was made on 1,400 respondents from twenty four urban areas. The age of the participants is 15+.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Image courtesy: TechCentral&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-8858138077175354280?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/8858138077175354280/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=8858138077175354280' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/8858138077175354280'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/8858138077175354280'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2010/08/emigration-is-alarming-process-for.html' title='The emigration is an alarming process for Moldova'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TGQdomXRUUI/AAAAAAAAAg8/zZIrpYjdaG0/s72-c/way.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-3883882903373672579</id><published>2010-07-26T18:29:00.020+03:00</published><updated>2010-07-26T22:01:57.850+03:00</updated><title type='text'>Helicopter crashes in Romania</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TE3bQwYZcSI/AAAAAAAAAg0/TZM--Hqg35I/s1600/Map.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 180px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TE3bQwYZcSI/AAAAAAAAAg0/TZM--Hqg35I/s320/Map.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5498291801000866082" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;An Israeli helicopter has crashed in Zarnesti town, Brasov county of Romania around 3:20 PM local time (8:20 AM EST).

The UN estimates that the population number reached the first billion around 1800. In 1999, they recorded about 6 billion people, but the UN says that the world population will increase to almost 7 billion people this year. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;According to a press release from The Institute of National Statistics, on January 1, 2010, the Romanian population was recorded as 21,462,000 inhabitants. The male population is represented by 48.7 percent and the female population is represented by 51.3 percent. Romania is the seventh country in the European Union on the largest population chart. It follows Germany, France, United Kingdom, Italy, Spain and Poland. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The young population (0-15 years old) is about 15.2 percent, the adult population is 69.9 percent, and the seniors (65+) – 14.9 percent. By January 1, 2010, the average age of the Romanian population was about 39.6 years. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the urban areas, there are over 11,819,000 dwellers, more than half of the Romania’s population (55.1 per cent). The cities with the largest population are: Bucharest (the capital) – 1,944,500 inhabitants, Timyshoara – 311,400 inhabitants, Iashi – 308,700 inhabitants, and Cluj – 307,200 inhabitants. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The population of Romania is decreasing because of the migration process that has increased after Romania joined the European Union in 2007, giving Romanians the possibility to travel and work without restrictions. The labor migration is a serious problem in Romania, while millions of people went to Italy, Spain, Greece, and other EU countries to work. The unemployment rate is 10.8 percent, and it is expected to increase by the end of this year up to 15.7 percent, because of dismissals from the public sector, a decision taken by the Romanian government due to the austerity measures.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-2618048237002603208?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/2618048237002603208/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=2618048237002603208' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/2618048237002603208'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/2618048237002603208'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2010/07/population-of-romania-is-decreasing.html' title='The population of Romania is decreasing'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TEaDGxr2_0I/AAAAAAAAAgs/DQMKb9f4BbA/s72-c/people.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-5688859669287194956</id><published>2010-07-17T06:24:00.007+03:00</published><updated>2010-07-18T04:51:46.928+03:00</updated><title type='text'>The outside studies - a privileged opportunity for some Europeans.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Mp-PBsU-p2o/TEEcST1s36I/AAAAAAAAFq4/v_BA6aejij8/s1600/univer.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Mp-PBsU-p2o/TEEcST1s36I/AAAAAAAAFq4/v_BA6aejij8/s320/univer.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5494704121257451426" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After graduation, most of the students from Romania and Moldova are eager to apply                                                             to a college outside of their own country. The Western universities interest them the most. Some students choose to complete their undergraduate studies in their home countries, and after that to apply for a Master’s Degree abroad. But most of those who want to study in another country will try to get accepted for their undergraduate degree. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You won’t find too many students from Romania or Moldova who are willing to pay the tuition fees. This is primarily because many families lack sufficient financial resources.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They will usually start by looking for scholarships that will at least cover the tuition fee, which is much more expensive than it is in their home country. Some students might only be able to pay a portion of the expenses, of the room and board, but the tuition fee remains elusive to them remaining far above and beyond their financial horizons. Low wages that their parents receive as remuneration for their work influences the student’s decision to continue their studies. This presents a real hardship for some families, preventing some students from attending college at all, and forcing others to leave their studies prematurely, before they have been completed. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Going to college in Romania or Moldova is not all that expensive from a Western perspective. Attending the oldest university of Romania, &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Alexandru Ioan Cuza University of Iasi&lt;/span&gt;, won’t be considered that expensive for a student from France, Germany or United Kingdom, because the tuition fee for a year (Undergraduate Degree) is about $610 (470 Euro). Attending &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;The West University of Timisoara&lt;/span&gt; would cost you this year $760 (590 Euro). &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Attending a university in Moldova will be cheaper. If you choose to study at &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;The State University of Moldova&lt;/span&gt; you would have to pay between $400 (310 Euro) to $560 (435 Euro) a year.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The university degrees you can get in Romania are recognized by any European country. The diplomas that are issued in a Moldovan university are generally recognized in Russia, Ukraine, Israel, and by the former Soviet countries.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Going to college in the Unites States of America is a very big achievement for someone from Romania or Moldova, since the education acquired there receives worldwide recognition.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Harvard University, Princeton University, Yale University, California Institute of Technology, and Massachusetts Institute of Technology count among the best colleges in the United States. The tuition fee per year for one of these universities varies between $34,500 (26,600 Euro) and $38,000 (29,300 Euro). This is a significantly big difference when you compare it to the universities from Romania and Moldova.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The universities from Europe are still cheaper than they are in the United States. If you were to attend the courses from &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Konstanz University&lt;/span&gt; of Germany, you would have to pay $1300 (1000 Euro) per year. The tuition fee for the &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;University of Manchester&lt;/span&gt; in Great Britain is $5100 (3,920 Euro) if you are a home student or a student from any other European Union country. If you're an international student, it would cost three times more.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The only way for the Moldovan and Romanian students can attend an European or American university is by receiving a scholarship, financial aid or receiving some other external financial support. If this is not possible, a student might not be able to afford it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The quality of education varies from one university to the next. The factors that affect educational quality include such issues as corruption, stability of the political system, the competency, skill and educational preparation of the teachers and others. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is difficult for students nowadays to decide upon an appropriate and advisable major due to the whims of industry and business and the rapid changes of supply and demand for specific professions in the employment marketplace by the time the student is ready to enter the workforce after graduation. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The skills and the experience the students get during their studies and volunteering hours are the things that matter to the employers the most.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-5688859669287194956?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/5688859669287194956/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=5688859669287194956' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/5688859669287194956'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/5688859669287194956'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2010/07/outside-studies-privileged-opportunity.html' title='The outside studies - a privileged opportunity for some Europeans.'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Mp-PBsU-p2o/TEEcST1s36I/AAAAAAAAFq4/v_BA6aejij8/s72-c/univer.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-2896566232994745924</id><published>2010-07-09T04:08:00.005+03:00</published><updated>2010-07-09T04:25:23.762+03:00</updated><title type='text'>The Romanian graduates are jobless</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TDZ6Wq061OI/AAAAAAAAAgY/UYdqr-smOlQ/s1600/studenti.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 260px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TDZ6Wq061OI/AAAAAAAAAgY/UYdqr-smOlQ/s320/studenti.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5491711325496857826" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;More than 100.000 students have graduated this year in Romania. This means that the unemployment rate will raise a lot, comparing to last year. After graduating, most of the students can’t find a job because not too many people hire anymore, maybe because of the economical crisis. Another reason, the employers say, is that the new graduates are not prepared enough, or they don’t have any experience. The employers are usually looking for a well-prepared student, with some experience in their background. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many students from Romania won’t understand that the extracurricular activities, such as joining clubs, volunteering, and doing community service is important to them in order to be able to get a job after graduation. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While is time build their resume, many graduates don’t have too many things they can write down, because of lack of experience. Most of the time, the graduates in Economics, Law and Politics, end up working in constructions, or the best – working as a waiter in a restaurant. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Romanian universities still continue accepting undergraduates in some areas that the country doesn’t need specialists. That’s why, it happens many students to choose Law or Economics and cannot find a job, because there are way too many applicants, and the competition is very big.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;According to a research, the best chances to find a job in this financial crisis in Romania have the students that have graduated from a Technical faculty, Foreign Languages Faculty, Medicine, and Agriculture. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It will still be really difficult for a fresh graduate to find a job because the country has recently applied the austerity measures which fires up many people from their jobs. The only choice for many of them is to go in any other European country and work there. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Image courtesy: zf.ro&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-2896566232994745924?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/2896566232994745924/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=2896566232994745924' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/2896566232994745924'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/2896566232994745924'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2010/07/romanian-graduates-are-jobless.html' title='The Romanian graduates are jobless'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TDZ6Wq061OI/AAAAAAAAAgY/UYdqr-smOlQ/s72-c/studenti.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-767975345536244366</id><published>2010-07-08T02:17:00.002+03:00</published><updated>2010-07-08T02:33:12.933+03:00</updated><title type='text'>Big flooding in Moldova and Romania</title><content type='html'>More than 1.000 people from over 300 households were evacuated in the last 24 hours as a result of the floods in Moldova. The rainfall has increased the water level in the Prut River, which divides Moldova by Romania. Three villages which are located across this river – Nemteni, Cotu Morii, and Macaresti were fully evacuated. The people will be hosted in the schools and kindergartens until the water will be gone. &lt;br /&gt;Most of the houses affected by the floods have crumbled.

Some main roads are closed at the moment. A bigger quantity of heavy rain is expected to fall in the next 12 hours in 11 North and Northeastern counties of Romania. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object width="480" height="385"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/GA1GX-n7UNQ&amp;amp;hl=en_US&amp;amp;fs=1?color1=0x234900&amp;amp;color2=0x4e9e00&amp;amp;hd=1"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/GA1GX-n7UNQ&amp;amp;hl=en_US&amp;amp;fs=1?color1=0x234900&amp;amp;color2=0x4e9e00&amp;amp;hd=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-767975345536244366?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/767975345536244366/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=767975345536244366' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/767975345536244366'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/767975345536244366'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2010/07/big-flooding-in-moldova-and-romania.html' title='Big flooding in Moldova and Romania'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-1980032482536495254</id><published>2010-07-04T06:27:00.003+03:00</published><updated>2010-07-04T06:34:04.532+03:00</updated><title type='text'>SUA sărbătorește 234 de ani de independență</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TDAAnkjrb4I/AAAAAAAAAgQ/ZPFcR2zNuxU/s1600/fireworks.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TDAAnkjrb4I/AAAAAAAAAgQ/ZPFcR2zNuxU/s320/fireworks.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5489888625592856450" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Statele Unite ale Americii își sărbătorește astăzi Ziua Independenței. Se împlinesc 234 de ani din ziua în care SUA și-a declarat independența – la 4 iulie 1776, primul președinte fiind George Washington. Cu această ocazie, toți americanii marchează această zi prin ieșiri la un grătar împreună cu familia și prietenii. În localitățile lurale, în ajunul zilei de 4 iulie, după apusul soarelui, oamenii se adună în afara acestora și urmăresc un adevărat show de focuri de artificii. A doua zi însă, în marile orașe din SUA au loc concerte live, dar și cele mai mari focuri de artificii din țară, care durează de obicei o jumătate de oră.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fiind una dintre cele mai importante sărbători ale anului, americanii o sărbătoresc cu mult fast, la fel cum sărbătorim noi hramul orașului. Specificul american însă este faptul că fiecare familie își arborează drapelul țării pe propria lor casă (asta doar în cazul în care acesta nu este arborat deja). Este o obișnuință la americani să arboreze drapelul țării lor oriunde își doresc: acasa, în mașină, chiar și pe haine (nemaivorbind de lenjeria intimă). Un lucru specific mai e faptul că în liceele din America, elevii își onorează drapelul în fiecare zi înainte de a începe cursurile propriuzise. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Deci, La Mulți Ani, America!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;God bless America!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-1980032482536495254?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/1980032482536495254/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=1980032482536495254' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/1980032482536495254'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/1980032482536495254'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2010/07/sua-sarbatoreste-233-de-ani-de.html' title='SUA sărbătorește 234 de ani de independență'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TDAAnkjrb4I/AAAAAAAAAgQ/ZPFcR2zNuxU/s72-c/fireworks.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-960942365563650410</id><published>2010-06-30T19:59:00.004+03:00</published><updated>2010-07-01T01:04:16.329+03:00</updated><title type='text'>Larry King pune punct celui mai longeviv show de televiziune</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TCu_HMvWheI/AAAAAAAAAgI/hVT5oHJyiSI/s1600/king.larry.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 199px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TCu_HMvWheI/AAAAAAAAAgI/hVT5oHJyiSI/s320/king.larry.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5488690701280904674" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Larry King, moderatorul emisiunii Larry King Live de la CNN a anunțat ieri, în cadrul emisiunii sale că din toamnă acesta va renunța la realizarea programului.

Totodată, emisiunea lui a fost catalogată de către Guinness World Records Book ca fiind cel mai longeviv show de televiziune la același post tv, cu același prezentator, difuzat la aceeași oră. Prima difuzare a showului a avut loc în 1985, încă de pe vremea fostului președinte al SUA, Richard Nixon. De-a lungul activității sale, a realizat peste 50.000 de interviuri cu personalități importante: politicieni, oameni de știință, vedete de televiziune etc. Printre aceștia se numără:  Marlon Brando, Mijhail Gorbachev, Paul McCartney, Bob Hope, Frank Sinatra, L. Ron Hubbard, Madonna, Martin Luther King, Jr, Barack Obama și Nelson Mandela, cel din urmă fiind cea mai remarcabilă persoană pe care a întâlnit-o. &lt;br /&gt;Tot ceea ce face este să pună întrebări – scurte și simple, scrie Larry pe blogul personal. Nu foarte des își pregătește întrebările din timp, adeseori acestea venind exprompt. Întotdeauna încearcă să facă interlocutorul să se simtă cât mai confortabil, pentru că doar astfel, spune el, poate să obțină răspunsuri pe care alții nu le-ar fi putut obține. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Larry King s-a născut în Brooklyn, New York în 1933. S-a mutat în Miami, Florida în 1957 unde și-a început cariera într-un post de televiziune local. De-a lungul activității sale în televiziune, acesta a fost nominalizat pentru un premiu Emmy, două premii Peabody Awards și alte zece premii Cable ACE. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Larry King și-a scris o autobiografie, intitulată  „My Remarkable Journey” pe care a și publicat-o. Până în prezent, Larry are peste 1.700.000 de fani ce-l urmăresc pe Twitter. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fiind întrebat cine și-ar dori să-i ia locul, acesta a răspuns că l-ar recomanda pe Ryan Secreast, moderatorul programului American Idol, având cu o bogată experiență în televiziune, specificând că este o persoană interesantă și plăcută. &lt;br /&gt;La cei 76 de ani ai săi, Larry King este încă o persoană cu multe aspirații, cu gânduri mari de viitor și dragoste de viață. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;object width="416" height="374" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" id="ep"&gt;&lt;param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /&gt;&lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /&gt;&lt;param name="wmode" value="transparent" /&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://i.cdn.turner.com/cnn/.element/apps/cvp/3.0/swf/cnn_416x234_embed.swf?context=embed&amp;videoId=bestoftv/2010/06/29/lkl.king.stepping.down.cnn" /&gt;&lt;param name="bgcolor" value="#000000" /&gt;&lt;embed src="http://i.cdn.turner.com/cnn/.element/apps/cvp/3.0/swf/cnn_416x234_embed.swf?context=embed&amp;videoId=bestoftv/2010/06/29/lkl.king.stepping.down.cnn" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" bgcolor="#000000" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" width="416" wmode="transparent" height="374"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Sursă video și imagine: cnn.com&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-960942365563650410?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/960942365563650410/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=960942365563650410' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/960942365563650410'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/960942365563650410'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2010/06/larry-king-pune-punct-celui-mai.html' title='Larry King pune punct celui mai longeviv show de televiziune'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TCu_HMvWheI/AAAAAAAAAgI/hVT5oHJyiSI/s72-c/king.larry.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-7174311035864401231</id><published>2010-06-30T07:04:00.004+03:00</published><updated>2010-06-30T07:09:17.988+03:00</updated><title type='text'>Premieră mondială -  ECLIPSE</title><content type='html'>Cel mai așteptat film de moment - &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Eclipse&lt;/span&gt; din Saga &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Twilight&lt;/span&gt; își așteaptă în noaptea dintre 29 spre 30 iunie toții fanii la premiera mondială care va avea loc la ora 12:01 AM.

Since 1940, when Stalin and Hitler signed the Ribbentrop-Molotov pact of division of Central Europe, Bessarabia was a part of the USSR until 1991, when it claimed its independence, becoming Republic of Moldova. &lt;br /&gt;The movie presents a statistic: more than 20 million people died because of the Communists and Nazi. &lt;br /&gt;Today, on June 28, there are commemorated 70 years since Moldova was annexed by the Soviet Union.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;embed src='http://unimedia.md/lib/videoplayer/player.swf' height='300' width='375' allowscriptaccess='always' allowfullscreen='true' flashvars='image=http://unimedia.md/sys/video_preview/large/soviet_1.jpg&amp;file=http://mirror.secured.md/.private/3086e4a163.flv' wmode='transparent'/&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-7300505261427519491?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/7300505261427519491/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=7300505261427519491' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/7300505261427519491'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/7300505261427519491'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2010/06/soviet-story-tells-reality.html' title='&quot;The Soviet Story&quot; tells the reality'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-949019131488635344</id><published>2010-06-27T09:44:00.002+03:00</published><updated>2010-06-27T09:46:25.414+03:00</updated><title type='text'>O nouă guvernare - un nou minister, mai prosper!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TCbzoCVqVMI/AAAAAAAAAgA/Ev4x_ILFDHI/s1600/screen.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 230px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TCbzoCVqVMI/AAAAAAAAAgA/Ev4x_ILFDHI/s320/screen.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5487341065145570498" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Odată cu accederea noii guvernări, relațiile externe ale Republicii Moldova cu alte țări au cunoscut o ameliorare semnificativă. Dacă anterior fosta guvernare își întărea relațiile bilaterale doar cu Rusia, astăzi observăm că noul guvern, în frunte cu Vlad Filat a dezvoltat parteneriate cu multe state occidentale. Acest lucru reprezintă un lucru semnificativ în procesul integrării europene al Republicii Moldova. Multe granturi, împrumuturi și fonduri nerambursabile au fost oferite Moldovei din momentul în care Alianța pentru Integrare Europeană a preluat frâiele țării. Nu pot spune că acest fapt se datorează foarte mult Alianței, ci doar unor membri ai ei. Și aici fac referire la liderul PLDM Vlad Filat, primul ministru care de fapt, în viziunea mea, este singurul care s-a remarcat pozitiv în procesul progresului Moldovei. Dacă e să facem o retrospectivă a fondurilor pe care acesta le-a opținut, putem însuma următoarele: fonduri din partea guvernului american, din partea guvernului României (fond nerambursabil), din partea Fondului Monetar Internațional (FMI), a Băncii Mondiale, totodată, Moldova a captat atenția unor investitori străini: chinezi, români.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Procesul negocierilor de aderare a Moldovei la Uniunea Europeană s-a intensificat. Guvernul Filat a început discuțiile cu privire la liberalizarea regimului de vize cu UE până în 2012. Totodată, relațiile bilaterale moldo-române s-au îmbunătățit simțitor. Două consulate românești urmează să fie deschise la începutul lunii iulie la Bălți și Cahul. Totodată, cele două țări au implementat deja micul trafic la frontieră. România a acordat până la 5000 de locuri subvenționate din bugetul de stat tinerilor din R. Moldova pentru a studia în România.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ministerul Afacerilor Externe și Integrării Europene al Republicii Moldova are o coordonare mai eficientă. Recent au fost rechemați câțiva din foștii ambasadori și numiți în funcții alții – cu o experiență mai bogată în domeniu și care să reprezinte interesele țării, dar să fie și de aceeași culoare politică ca și guvernarea de la Chișinău. Dacă este să aruncăm o privire la site-ul oficial al Ministerului (www.mfa.gov.md), putem observa că cetățenii au acces la informații actuale, utile. A apărut chiar și o rubrică unde cetățenii se pot informa despre legislația Uniunii Europene, pot pune întrebări și contacta ministerul cu privire la diverse întrebări legate de serviciile consulare, migrație și alte servicii. Din acest moment putem spune că Ministerul își merită numele pentru că se implică în procesul de aderare al RM la Uniunea Europeană. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ceea ce mi-a atras atenția în special este faptul că în cadrul site-ului putem identifica oferte de angajare și condițiile necesare pentru a îmbrățișa o anumită funcție în cadrul Ministerului. Totodată, țin să precizez că site-ul este ușor de navigat, fiind structurat pe câteva direcții: Ministerul, Politică Externă, Integrare Europeană, Afaceri Consulare, Presă și Relații Publice. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Să sperăm că Ministerul actual își va continua activitatea pe aceeași direcție și va reuși să atingă rezultate mari.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-949019131488635344?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/949019131488635344/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=949019131488635344' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/949019131488635344'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/949019131488635344'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2010/06/o-noua-guvernare-un-nou-minister-mai.html' title='O nouă guvernare - un nou minister, mai prosper!'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TCbzoCVqVMI/AAAAAAAAAgA/Ev4x_ILFDHI/s72-c/screen.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-5418243515904572757</id><published>2010-06-16T17:06:00.003+03:00</published><updated>2010-06-16T17:09:50.551+03:00</updated><title type='text'>Cărți românești oprite la Prut</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TBjbE7Nw4nI/AAAAAAAAAfw/sZzRhENjIps/s1600/trimite1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 213px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TBjbE7Nw4nI/AAAAAAAAAfw/sZzRhENjIps/s320/trimite1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5483373423984960114" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Liderii Asociației Tinerilor Români din Afara Granițelor (ATRAG-Iași) împreună cu Asociația Pro Democrația din Târgu Neamț și-au propus în decursul zilei de marți, 15 iunie să treacă în Republica Moldova în jur de 5000 de cărți. În jurul orei 12 cărțile au trecut cu brio de vama românească din Leușeni, urmând să treacă și de cea moldovenească. Aici însă studenții au întâmpinat probleme mari. Vameșii nu le-au permis tinerilor să treacă cărțile pe motiv că nu au o dovadă precum că destinatarul (Ministerul Educației) dispune de un depozit în care cărțile să fie stocate.  Tinerii au fost informați că trebuie să obțină o autorizație de la Ministerul Muncii și Protecției Sociale de la Chișinău. După șase ore de negocieri, microbuzul a făcut cale întoarsă spre Iași. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Membrii celor două asociații asociațiilor susțin că, în vederea desfășurării normale a trecerii frontierei au întocmit procese-verbale de primire, au inventariat toate cărțile și au încheiat parteneriate. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;„În Republica Moldova a venit o altă guvernare, însă în structurile vamale au rămas încă idei comuniste. Din cauza lor noi nu putem urma calea succesului și a progresului, mai ales că cei din AIE luptă între ei, iar comuniștii își consolidează pozițiile. Dar noi trebuie să luptăm pentru idealurile noastre! ”, a declarat Dumitru Sorbală, președintele ATRAG.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cărțile a fost colectate în cadrul campaniei „Trimite o Carte peste Prut”, organizată la nivel național de către Liga Studenților Basarabeni din România (LSBR). În total au fost colectate în jur de 10.000 de cărți. Acestea urmau să ajungă la liceele din Republica Moldova care duc o lipsă de cărți în limba română. În decursul zilei de ieri, 1000 de cărți urmau să ajungă în raionul Hâncești, iar alte 4000 la Ministerul Educației de la Chișinău, pentru ca mai apoi acestea să fie distribuite gimnaziilor și liceelor din mediul rural. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pentru &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;ROPRESS.eu&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-5418243515904572757?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/5418243515904572757/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=5418243515904572757' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/5418243515904572757'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/5418243515904572757'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2010/06/carti-romanesti-oprite-la-prut.html' title='Cărți românești oprite la Prut'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/TBjbE7Nw4nI/AAAAAAAAAfw/sZzRhENjIps/s72-c/trimite1.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-72906242397001374</id><published>2010-06-11T11:38:00.001+03:00</published><updated>2010-06-11T11:40:39.963+03:00</updated><title type='text'>Ambasadorul Marii Britanii din România în vizită la Iași</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3163/2508611372_e5c8ab6c28.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 363px; height: 500px;" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3163/2508611372_e5c8ab6c28.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Excelența sa, domnul Robin Barnett, ambasadorul Marii Britanii în România a fost prezent ieri la Iași.

În cadrul întrunirii, care a durat o ora și jumătate, ambasadorul a vorbit pe diverse teme, precum politica externă a Marii Britanii, relațiile bilaterale cu România, schimbările climatice și războiul din Afganistan. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Excelența sa le-a spus tinerilor că, pentru a fi un diplomat de succes trebuie să gândești strategic, să-ți stabilești obiective particulare, să fii capabil să lucrezi eficient în echipă, să fii critic și cel mai important, spune el, să poți comunica eficient și să-i poți influența pe ceilalți. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;„Diplomația este când îi permiți cuiva să-ți accepte calea, modul tău de a gândi”. „Întotdeauna este o modalitate de a comunica/negocia în diplomație”, mai spune excelența sa.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El a menționat că succesul Ambasadei României la București se datorează faptului că dispun de o echipă responsabilă, care-și stabilește niște obiective pe care le și atinge. Barnett a precizat că, atunci când lucrezi într-o misiune diplomatică într-o țară străină, trebuie să fii empatic, pentru ca să înțelegi și să respecți regulile țării în care te afli. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;După discursul acestuia, care a durat 30 de minute, acesta s-a oferit să răspundă întrebărilor din sală. Studenții s-au arătat foarte interesați de subiectele puse în discuție și au adresat întrebări pe măsura studiilor pe care le fac. Întrebat de un student la Relații Internaționale cum vede el viitorul României peste 20 de ani, excelența sa a dat un răspuns optimist: „O țară prosperă, cu un viitor frumos, o țară europeană”. Spre finalul acestei discuții, el a spus că „voi, tinerii vă doriți schimbarea, iar această schimbare v-o doriți să fie rapidă. Atunci e de datoria voastră să acționați, voi sunteți viitorul acestei țări, așa că `spor la treabă`”!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Robin Barnett este ambasadorul Regatului Unit al Marii Britanii la București din iunie 2006. Acesta are o experiență diplomatică anterioară în Varșovia și Viena.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-72906242397001374?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/72906242397001374/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=72906242397001374' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/72906242397001374'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/72906242397001374'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2010/06/ambasadorul-marii-britanii-din-romania.html' title='Ambasadorul Marii Britanii din România în vizită la Iași'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3163/2508611372_e5c8ab6c28_t.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-8526514704994041070</id><published>2010-05-22T00:15:00.004+03:00</published><updated>2010-05-22T00:19:00.809+03:00</updated><title type='text'>Emoții și clipe frumoase alături de Stela Popa</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/S_b4lNNemTI/AAAAAAAAAfo/y_-BSn9NmTE/s1600/IMG_5763.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/S_b4lNNemTI/AAAAAAAAAfo/y_-BSn9NmTE/s320/IMG_5763.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5473835715200457010" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Astăzi am avut ocazia să mă întâlnesc cu distinsa (mai întâi jurnalistă) autoare a romanului „100 de zile” – Stela Popa. La invitația studenților basarabeni din Iași, aceasta ne-a onorat cu prezența la Târgul Internațional de Carte LIBREX. Peste 50 de tineri, în mare parte basarabeni au fost prezenți la lansarea cărții. Ar fi putut fi mai mulți, însă probabil că ploaia de afară i-a speriat un pic. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cu lipsă de modestie voi spune că este pentru prima dată când am onoarea să mă întâlnesc face-to-face cu o autoare/jurnalistă pe care o respect și o apreciez mult. De la ora 15:30 și până la ora 19 ne-am aflat în compania Stelei, întemeind discuții despre viața ei, experiențele trăite de ea, dar și despre viața studențească a ieșenilor. N-a putut să plece de la noi fără să ne fotografiem cu ea, să luăm autografe și să-i punem sute de întrebări. Însă și ea ne-a pus întrebări! Am dat interviuri pentru emisiunea „Mai aproape de Europa”, emisiune pe care-o realizează și moderează la Radio „Vocea Basarabiei”. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Atmosfera în care s-au desfășurat toate aceste evenimente a fost una extrem de degajată. Stela s-a dovedit a fi o persoană foarte prietenoasă, dornică de a ne cunoaște, de a-și împărtăși experiențele de viață cu noi. Stela ne-a spus că este foarte mândră că face parte din „Generația 7 aprilie” și că este sigură că viitorul Moldovei este pe mâini bune. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Impresiile de după eveniment au fost multe și toate pozitive. Cu toții am rămas profund impresionați de personalitatea Stelei Popa, o fire glumeață, inteligentă, modestă, frumoasă la chip și la suflet și care are multe lucruri a ne spune. Se consideră parte a generației noastre, iar noi ne mândrim să avem o astfel de personalitate în generația noastră. Doar împreună vom reuși să ne cultivăm limba română și s-o aducem înapoi în Basarabia, pe plaiurile însetate de graiul românesc.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-8526514704994041070?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/8526514704994041070/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=8526514704994041070' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/8526514704994041070'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/8526514704994041070'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2010/05/emotii-si-clipe-frumoase-alaturi-de.html' title='Emoții și clipe frumoase alături de Stela Popa'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/S_b4lNNemTI/AAAAAAAAAfo/y_-BSn9NmTE/s72-c/IMG_5763.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-1489303340941024532</id><published>2010-05-17T19:18:00.003+03:00</published><updated>2010-05-17T19:24:02.452+03:00</updated><title type='text'>Investițiile străine din Iași în vizorul altor țări</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/S_FsoqtFZKI/AAAAAAAAAfg/IHN96hNfILc/s1600/CIMG0485.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/S_FsoqtFZKI/AAAAAAAAAfg/IHN96hNfILc/s320/CIMG0485.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5472274468145816738" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Personalități importante au venit astăzi la Iași. În cadrul forumului intitulat &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Iași International Economic Development&lt;/span&gt; care s-a desfășurat în incinta Universității „Alexandru Ioan Cuza” a fost dezbătută problema investițiilor străine în Iași.  &lt;br /&gt;Invitații speciali ai acestui forum au fost  Pieter Andries Swanepoel, Ambasadorul Africii de Sud în România, Hans Smaling, Cosilier în cadrul Ambasadei Olandei la București, Simon Geissbuhler, Consilier în cadrul Ambasadei Elveției în România și Aldous Mina – voluntar Peace Corps. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hans Smaling a vorbit despre impactul crizei financiare asupra investițiilor străine. Acesta speră că România va face față măsurilor de austeritate și că va depăși criza.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;„Olanda este cel mai mare investitor în România”, a explicat Smaling, precizând că până la moment au fost investiți peste patru miliarde de dolari americani. El este de părere că România este o țară cu o poziție geostrategică favorabilă, care ar putea deschide o poarta mai largă spre Europa. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;„Aveți nevoie de o infrastructură puternică”, a menționat Consilierul, făcând referire la faptul că bunurile nu pot fi transportate în siguranță în România. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ambasadorul Africii de Sud la București a spus că România a devenit o țară de investiții atractivă. Asta deoarece PIB-ul Africii de Sud este ușor mai mare decât cel al României. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;„Africa de Sud este în prezent cel mai mare exportator de cărbune în Europa”, a evidențiat ambasadorul. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Simon Geissbuhler a afirmat în cadrul discursului său că Elveția are relații foarte strânse cu Iașiul. El privește însă România ca pe o țară slab dezvoltată, drept pentru care nu sunt multe investiții aici. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;„Aveți forțe intelectuale importante în Iași, iar România are nevoie de specialiști calificați”, a spus Geissbuhler făcând referire la studenții de la Universitatea „Alexandru Ioan Cuza”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Acesta a indetificat o problemă și a propus o soluție. &lt;br /&gt;„Lipsa unei birocrații transparente în România este problema numărul unu pentru investițiile elvețiene”, a menționat Consilierul elvețian. „Nu investim prea mult aici pentru că nu aveți o infrastructură bine dezvoltată pentru a transporta mărfurile”, a explicat acesta. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Totuși, el privește cu ochi buni viitorul investițional în România. Acesta este de părere că România are potențial, iar Elveția crede în el, chiar dacă românii au numeroase probleme. &lt;br /&gt;„Trebuie să fiți optimiști și să mergeți înainte”, a îndemnat Geissbuhler. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;După discursurile invitaților speciali, a urmat o sesiune de întrebări și răspunsuri venite din partea celor din sală.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-1489303340941024532?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/1489303340941024532/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=1489303340941024532' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/1489303340941024532'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/1489303340941024532'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2010/05/investitiile-straine-din-iasi-in.html' title='Investițiile străine din Iași în vizorul altor țări'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/S_FsoqtFZKI/AAAAAAAAAfg/IHN96hNfILc/s72-c/CIMG0485.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-735654304935682023</id><published>2010-05-13T19:42:00.007+03:00</published><updated>2010-05-13T20:07:56.916+03:00</updated><title type='text'>Învălmășeală la Cinema Victoria din Iași</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/S-ww-UtgxaI/AAAAAAAAAfQ/7vNE-hYe5aQ/s1600/P5130002.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/S-ww-UtgxaI/AAAAAAAAAfQ/7vNE-hYe5aQ/s320/P5130002.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5470801494617933218" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Peste 100 de tineri, în mare parte studenți, nu au putut intra la proiecția de film „Când vreau să fluier, fluier”, care rulează astăzi la Cinema Victoria din Iași, intrarea fiind liberă. Atunci când ușile au fost deschise, tinerii s-au grăbit să intre în sediul cinematografului pentru a prinde un loc în sală. Mulți dintre ei au sosit cu o oră înaintea proiecției, fapt ce le-a asigurat de altfel, un loc în sală. În jurul orei 18:30 tinerii au nu au fost permiși să intre pe motiv că nu mai erau locuri suficiente în sală. Filmul urma să se înceapă de la ora 19. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Proiecția de film are loc la inițiativa Asociației Studenților Jurnaliști (ASJ), printre acestea numărându-se și filmul „Legăruri Bolnăvicioase”, care a fost difuzat ieri și „Tache”, care va fi difuzat mâine.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-735654304935682023?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/735654304935682023/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=735654304935682023' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/735654304935682023'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/735654304935682023'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2010/05/invalmaseala-la-cinema-victoria-din.html' title='Învălmășeală la Cinema Victoria din Iași'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/S-ww-UtgxaI/AAAAAAAAAfQ/7vNE-hYe5aQ/s72-c/P5130002.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-7954305117704546198</id><published>2010-05-12T20:10:00.003+03:00</published><updated>2010-05-12T20:21:00.627+03:00</updated><title type='text'>Workshop pe teme europene</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/S-rjWWmnHxI/AAAAAAAAAfI/DWRjTCQVIpU/s1600/CIMG0472.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/S-rjWWmnHxI/AAAAAAAAAfI/DWRjTCQVIpU/s320/CIMG0472.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5470434670559043346" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Un grup de tineri din cadrul Organizației Studenților la Studii Europene Iași (OSSEI) a organizat astăzi un workshop pe tema: „Uniunea Europeană și România. Realizări și eșecuri”. Evenimentul s-a desfășurat în sala de conferințe a Casei de Cultură a Studenților, participând studenți de la specializarea Relații Internaționale și Studii Europene din cadrul Universității „Alexandru I. Cuza”. Invitatul special al workshopului a fost prep. univ. Ana-Maria Popovici de la catedra de Relații Internaționale și Studii Europene de la aceeași universitate. Aceasta a început workshopul printr-o prezentare power-point despre avansarea României de după aderare. &lt;br /&gt;În partea a doua a evenimentului, tinerii au fost împărțiți în două echipe. Aceștia au realizat niște scheme prin care au prezentat o problemă a României, au specificat cauzele și au identificat efectele acestora. O altă activitate, care s-a dovedit a fi una pe cât de ușoară, pe atât de dificilă pentru unii a fost împărțirea (fără voia lor) pe două echipe: Pro-Europeni și Eurosceptici. Cel mai dificil le-a fost celor din echipa doi, deoarece mulți dintre ei erau pro-europeni înrăiți. Au trebuit, totuși, să se adapteze situației și să găsească dezavantajele unui stat de a fi membru al Uniunii Europene. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/S-rjVzJkITI/AAAAAAAAAfA/jY05OCcNv0o/s1600/CIMG0469.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/S-rjVzJkITI/AAAAAAAAAfA/jY05OCcNv0o/s320/CIMG0469.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5470434661041971506" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Acest workshop face parte din programul activităților organizate de OSSEI în cadrul &lt;a href="http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2010/05/festudis-2010-o-revolutie-studentilor.html"&gt;FESTUDIS&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-7954305117704546198?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/7954305117704546198/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=7954305117704546198' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/7954305117704546198'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/7954305117704546198'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2010/05/workshop-pe-teme-europene.html' title='Workshop pe teme europene'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/S-rjWWmnHxI/AAAAAAAAAfI/DWRjTCQVIpU/s72-c/CIMG0472.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-5562432501534646880</id><published>2010-05-11T00:36:00.005+03:00</published><updated>2010-05-12T20:10:19.453+03:00</updated><title type='text'>FESTUDIS 2010 - o „revoluție” a studenților</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/S-h9T_BPMXI/AAAAAAAAAeg/fVYBxJiDYHw/s1600/CIMG0375.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/S-h9T_BPMXI/AAAAAAAAAeg/fVYBxJiDYHw/s320/CIMG0375.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5469759529729077618" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cea mai mare paradă a studenților, numită FESTUDIS a avut loc astăzi la Iași. Acesta este un eveniment de o mare anvergură, desfășurându-se pentru al nouălea an consecutiv. La parada de astăzi au participat peste 300 de studenți, reprezentând asociațiile de tineret din cadrul Universității „Alexandru Ioan Cuza”, Universității Tehnice „Gheorghe Asachi”, Universității de Medicină și Farmacie și Universității „Petre Andrei” din Iași. Traseele pe care au defilat studenții sunt următoarele:  &lt;br /&gt;Tudor Vladimirescu – Splai Bahlui – Palatul Culturii;&lt;br /&gt;Copou – Casa de Cultură a Studentilor – Bulevardul Ștefan cel Mare – Palatul Culturii; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Palatul Culturii – Bulevardul Ștefan cel Mare – Casa de Cultură a Studentilor.&lt;br /&gt;În fața Casei de Cultură a Studenților, in jurul orei 19:30, liderii fiecărei asociații de tineret și-au prezentat pe scurt asociația, iar colegii i-au susținut. După ora 20, în aceeași locație a fost organizat un concert de muzică rock cu participarea trupei „Alternosfera” din Republica Moldova.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/S-h9UbgvL8I/AAAAAAAAAeo/M9-mq_jkPmE/s1600/CIMG0391.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/S-h9UbgvL8I/AAAAAAAAAeo/M9-mq_jkPmE/s320/CIMG0391.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5469759537377390530" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-5562432501534646880?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/5562432501534646880/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=5562432501534646880' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/5562432501534646880'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/5562432501534646880'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2010/05/festudis-2010-o-revolutie-studentilor.html' title='FESTUDIS 2010 - o „revoluție” a studenților'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/S-h9T_BPMXI/AAAAAAAAAeg/fVYBxJiDYHw/s72-c/CIMG0375.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-532370915361108777</id><published>2010-03-21T21:40:00.006+02:00</published><updated>2010-03-22T00:50:21.283+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Tinerii din Iași și-au început vânătoarea!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/S6ah5rITUFI/AAAAAAAAAeY/v_BmphTVO-k/s1600-h/CIMG0133.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/S6ah5rITUFI/AAAAAAAAAeY/v_BmphTVO-k/s320/CIMG0133.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5451222411180724306" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/S6ah5OYMz6I/AAAAAAAAAeQ/igFw6DKNvA8/s1600-h/CIMG0131.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/S6ah5OYMz6I/AAAAAAAAAeQ/igFw6DKNvA8/s320/CIMG0131.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5451222403462778786" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Vremea frumoasă de afară i-a scos pe toți studenții ieșeni la faleză. La cele 22 de grade care s-au înregistrat duminică, nimeni nu a putut rezista tentației de a ieși la o primă plimbare în tricou de anul acesta. Sute de studenți și-au aranjat părul cu gel, și-au pus cel mai trendy tricou și au ieșit cu prietena la o plimbare, sau la agățat, în cazul celor mai singurei. Iar studentele, ce mai! S-a schimbat vremea, s-a schimbat și stilul! Pe bulevarul Carol I din Iași rar unde mai vedeai domnișoare în blugi. Acestea au preferat să poarte o rochie, sau de ce nu, o fustă cât mai scurtă și mai atrăgătoare. Iar astea, evident, pentru a atrage privirile devoratoare ale băieților.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ca niciodată, într-o zi de duminică, strada ce duce spre universitate a fost mai aglomerată decât într-o zi obișnuită. Această remarcă m-a uimit, deoarece în weekend bulevardul Carol I este aproape pustiu, studenții fiind acasă sau în cămine (P.S: învățând!). &lt;br /&gt;Ce să mai zic de parcul Copou, care în jurul orei 16 era pur și simplu asaltat de sute de tineri. Cu mare dificultate mai găseai vreo bancă liberă pe care să te așezi și să admiri înmugurirea copacilor. Până și Teiul lui Eminescu a început să-și scoată în evidență mugurii. &lt;br /&gt;Și apropo de Piața Unirii, unde agățatul de fete era în toi! Dar nu mai intru în detalii. O zi prea frumoasă pentru a sta în fața calculatorului și a povesti!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-532370915361108777?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/532370915361108777/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=532370915361108777' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/532370915361108777'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/532370915361108777'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2010/03/tinerii-din-iasi-si-au-inceput.html' title='Tinerii din Iași și-au început vânătoarea!'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/S6ah5rITUFI/AAAAAAAAAeY/v_BmphTVO-k/s72-c/CIMG0133.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-7862298642187468922</id><published>2010-03-20T19:37:00.003+02:00</published><updated>2010-03-20T19:40:04.382+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Discuții cu tentă politică cu studenții de la Cuza</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/S6UIGfT4MgI/AAAAAAAAAd4/BKt8EmcFdC8/s1600-h/CIMG0066.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/S6UIGfT4MgI/AAAAAAAAAd4/BKt8EmcFdC8/s320/CIMG0066.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5450771831578964482" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;În seara zilei de astăzi, în amfiteatrul Mihail Kogălniceanu din cadrul Universității „Alexandru Ioan Cuza” din Iași s-a desfășurat o conferință la care au participat oameni politici din Iași, cum ar fi: Cătălin Ivan, europarlamentar, Costi Neagu, vicepreședintele Autorității Naționale de Tineret și Sport, Iulian Nicu de la PD-L Iași, Radu Ursanu, președintele Organizației de Tineret din PD-L Iași, Vasile Diacon din PRM Iași și alții. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;La conferință au participat și jurnaliști din presa locală, dar și peste 100 de studenți, în mare parte de la specializările de Științe Politice și Relații Internaționale și Studii Europene. Tema pusă în discuție în cadrul dezbaterii a fost „Modul de organizare și restructurare a alegerilor parlamentare din 2009”. În același timp, s-au abordat și aspecte ale participării politice ale tinerilor, dar și rolul acestora în politică. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dezbaterea a fost una interesantă pe măsură ce jurnaliștii erau în contradicție totală cu politicienii. Întrebat de o jurnalistă de la TVR Iași despre care au fost criteriile de selecție a candidaților pentru funcțiile de europarlamentar, Cătălin Ivan a încercat să evite pe cât de mult posibil un răspuns concret, acesta afirmând faptul că a ajuns acolo „mai mult din noroc”. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;O greșeală pe care eu o consider de neiertat pentru un politician din cadrul Uniunii Europene este să confunde noțiunile de Parlament al Europei cu cel de Parlament European. Astfel, unul dintre politicieni, în cadrul discursului său, a făcut referire la europarlamentarul prezent la dezbatere folosind conceptul de Parlament al Europei. &lt;br /&gt;Spre finalul dezbaterii, tinerii studenți au putut să adreseze întrebări.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-7862298642187468922?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/7862298642187468922/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=7862298642187468922' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/7862298642187468922'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/7862298642187468922'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2010/03/discutii-cu-tenta-politica-cu-studentii.html' title='Discuții cu tentă politică cu studenții de la Cuza'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/S6UIGfT4MgI/AAAAAAAAAd4/BKt8EmcFdC8/s72-c/CIMG0066.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-3561911752141225043</id><published>2010-03-18T21:56:00.003+02:00</published><updated>2010-03-18T22:02:27.462+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Inaugurare de mall cu isterie și distrugeri</title><content type='html'>Mii de oameni s-au îmbrâncit în dimineața zilei de astăzi la Iași după ce un magazin de bricolaj a fost deschis. Oamenii au stat la coadă liniștiți până când acesta și-a deschis porțile. În câteva minute după deschidere, acesta a fost devastat de cumpărătorii care pur și simplu au dat buzna în mall pentru a reuși să pună mâna pe produsele ieftine. După ce câteva geamuri au fost sparte iar multe rafturi dărâmate, magazinul a fost temporar închis. O femeie a fost călcată în picioare - la propriu.

În jurul orei 16, circulația dinspre Universitatea „Alexandru Ioan Cuza” spre sensul giratoriu din fața Bibliotecii Centrale Universitare a fost blocată preț de mai bine de un sfert de minute. Se circula liber însă pe sensul opus. Din câte se pare, circulația a fost dată peste cap de unii șoferi care pur și simplu încercau să facă cale întoarsă. O ambulanță și o mașină a poliției au fost văzute trecând cu mare dificultate prin ambuteiaj.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-3479979104195499152?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/3479979104195499152/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=3479979104195499152' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/3479979104195499152'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/3479979104195499152'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2010/03/tafic-rutier-de-iasi.html' title='Tafic rutier de Iași'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/S6JC4KeZDmI/AAAAAAAAAdw/p10AjoCDMFA/s72-c/CIMG0024.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-2024421061900340771</id><published>2010-03-18T12:47:00.003+02:00</published><updated>2010-03-18T12:50:00.798+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Foreign universities tender in Iasi, Romania</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/S6IFEs_SBfI/AAAAAAAAAdg/pY18K7aC_JE/s1600-h/CIMG0006.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/S6IFEs_SBfI/AAAAAAAAAdg/pY18K7aC_JE/s320/CIMG0006.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5449924077425919474" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ROMANIAN INTERNATIONAL UNIVERSITY FAIR – RIUF is the biggest education event in Romania. Every year, more than 100 universities and colleges from 20 different countries come to Romania to present their options to the interested students. &lt;br /&gt;The event took place in the Romania’s capital Bucharest on the 13-14th of March. On the 16th of March, the staff from the foreign universities were in Timishoara city, and today there are in the city of Iashi. Hundreads of high school students and university students have came since the oppening of the event, from 10 AM. &lt;br /&gt;Most of the students are looking for a scholarship, that’s because the tuition fees are way too expensive for them. Anyways, the students seemed to be interested and they asked for some contact information from the stuff.&lt;br /&gt;There are two universities from Denmark, eight from France, two from Germany, one from Italy, Switzerland, and The Netherlands, four from UK, and five others from Romania.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-2024421061900340771?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/2024421061900340771/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=2024421061900340771' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/2024421061900340771'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/2024421061900340771'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2010/03/foreign-universities-tender-in-iasi.html' title='Foreign universities tender in Iasi, Romania'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/S6IFEs_SBfI/AAAAAAAAAdg/pY18K7aC_JE/s72-c/CIMG0006.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-5580267821528820116</id><published>2010-02-15T18:18:00.004+02:00</published><updated>2010-02-15T18:23:22.406+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Limba cea română de la Bălți</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/S3l0X53AXKI/AAAAAAAAAdQ/efdoHNEMSw4/s1600-h/POST-1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/S3l0X53AXKI/AAAAAAAAAdQ/efdoHNEMSw4/s320/POST-1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5438505979043929250" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Când vine vorba de comiterea de greșeli de ortografie în limba română, orașul Bălți este primul în top. Acest lucru se datorează faptului că aici locuiește o minoritate semnificativă  de ucraineni și ruși, care aproape că formează majoritatea. Cea mai mare parte dintre ei nu cunoaște însă limba de stat, iar unii vorbitori de limbă română preferă uneori să vorbească în limba rusă. Acest lucru duce la uitarea și „vătămarea” limbii române, a cărei corectitudine este neglijată sau uitată de către vorbitorii nativi. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Vă prezint câteva crâmpeie de pe strada Tudor Vladimirescu din Bălți, care de fapt este ortografiata incorect, iar pe aceeași stradă găsim și un magazin cu un panou publicitar scris cam în același mod.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/S3l0YE1y5AI/AAAAAAAAAdY/NAxVL-qj9XY/s1600-h/POST-2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/S3l0YE1y5AI/AAAAAAAAAdY/NAxVL-qj9XY/s320/POST-2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5438505981991642114" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-5580267821528820116?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/5580267821528820116/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=5580267821528820116' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/5580267821528820116'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/5580267821528820116'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2010/02/limba-cea-romana-de-la-balti.html' title='Limba cea română de la Bălți'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/S3l0X53AXKI/AAAAAAAAAdQ/efdoHNEMSw4/s72-c/POST-1.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-480266554688096578</id><published>2010-01-18T11:37:00.003+02:00</published><updated>2010-01-18T11:42:50.327+02:00</updated><title type='text'>În memoria lui Grigore Vieru</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/S1Qs3H77ZeI/AAAAAAAAAdI/v1ogGmwilcg/s1600-h/grigore+vieru.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/S1Qs3H77ZeI/AAAAAAAAAdI/v1ogGmwilcg/s320/grigore+vieru.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5428012776423122402" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Un „Al doilea Eminescu” al literaturii românești a fost Grigore Vieru. Un accident cumplit i-a curmat viața marelui poet în urmă cu un an. Dar Vieru nu a decedat pentru noi. El încă mai trăiește, trăiește prin versurile sale, prin glasul său povățuitor și plin de înțelepciune. A cultivat și a valorificat cultul nostru românesc prin poezie și veșnica sa dorință de apropiere a acelui popor ce încă și astăzi este despărțit de o sârmă ghimpată. Și totuși, a reușit să ne unească, să ne readucă acasă prin intermediul versurilor sale. Întotdeauna a deplâns înstrăinarea dintre frați și și-a dorit ca aceștia să știe că au același sânge, același grai.&lt;br /&gt;„Dacă visul unora a fost ori este să ajunga în cosmos, eu viața întreagă am visat să trec Prutul”, spunea Grigore Vieru. Aceste cuvinte ne demonstrează adevăratul atașament al acestuia față de plaiurile mioritice. Multe dintre poeziile sale evocă dragostea de mamă, de patrie, de limbă, iar gândurile-i exprimate în versuri „înfloresc” în inima cititorului, dând viață la sentimente de iubire, de romantism, de dor. Fiecare cuvânt, fiecare vers, stârnește o emoție pentru cititorul român, pentru că de fapt poeziile sale sunt un ecou al sufletului său.&lt;br /&gt;Grigore Vieru e prea important, prea valoros pentru a fi dat uitării. Nimeni însă nu ne va putea șterge lacrima de pe față și durerea din suflet pe care ne-a creat-o trecerea sa în neființă.&lt;br /&gt;Să ne aducem aminte de el, să-i citim și recităm versurile, pentru că el ne privește de acolo, de sus și se bucură pentru fiecare dintre noi atunci când sufletul ne este umplut de emoția lecturii sale.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;DORUL ȘI LIMBA&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Cerul e ţesut din stele,&lt;br /&gt;Luncile – din floricele,&lt;br /&gt;Numai dorul strămoşesc -&lt;br /&gt;Din cuvântul românesc.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Din pământ izvorul iese,&lt;br /&gt;Grâul – din seminţe dese,&lt;br /&gt;Numai dorul strămoşesc –&lt;br /&gt;Din cuvântul românesc.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Razele ne vin din soare,&lt;br /&gt;Iar miresmele – din floare,&lt;br /&gt;Numai dorul strămoşesc –&lt;br /&gt;Din cuvântul românesc.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(Grigore Vieru)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sursă imagine: realitatea.net&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-480266554688096578?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/480266554688096578/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=480266554688096578' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/480266554688096578'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/480266554688096578'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2010/01/in-memoria-lui-grigore-vieru.html' title='În memoria lui Grigore Vieru'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/S1Qs3H77ZeI/AAAAAAAAAdI/v1ogGmwilcg/s72-c/grigore+vieru.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-1404428569541055417</id><published>2010-01-02T19:49:00.005+02:00</published><updated>2010-01-02T20:26:23.285+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Cea mai înaltă clădire din lume - la Dubai!</title><content type='html'>Cea mai înaltă clădire din lume, Burj Dubai, va fi inaugurată pe 4 ianuarie 2010, în Dubai, capitala Emiratelor Arabe Unite.

Evenimentul s-a desfășurat pe 10 decembrie, în fața Palatului Culturii din Iași. Timp de 2 minute, miile de oameni au ținut un minut de reculegere după care au dat drumul la baloanele roșii ce le țineau în mână. Peste 100 de asociații, organizații, instituții publice și licee din Iași și din regiunea Moldovei au susținut acest eveniment prin participare și promovare. Evenimentul s-a dovedit a fi unul de mare anvergură, țelul fiind atins – adunarea a 4000 de oameni într-un singur loc, unindu-se pentru acest scop nobil.

Acestea își lasă familiile îndurerate și merg spre tărâmuri necunoscute, în speranța obținerii unor resurse financiare considerabile care să le permită un trai decent acasă. De multe ori însă se întâmplă ca acest vis să nu se realizeze. Multe femei cad în capcana traficanților, a vânzătorilor de oameni care exploatează femeile supunându-le la munci murdare, adeseori acestea fiind puse să se prostitueze. Este o durere de nedescris în sufletul ființei care trece prin astfel de lucruri, pentru că își vede viața ruinată cu proprii ochi. Acest lucru se datorează cel mai mult faptului că tinerele fete din Moldova, atunci când văd o oportunitate de a-și găsi un job ce-i promite bani mulți, se lasă ademenite. Astfel cad în capcana traficanților. Lipsa de informare este de fapt marea problemă, deoarece acestea nu se informează suficient de bine despre locul unde vor ajunge, ce vor lucra, unde vor locui și cine va fi responsabil de ele, acestea căzând pradă tentațiilor care sunt modelate frumos de către așa zișii ”angajatori”. &lt;br /&gt;Înainte de a purcede la drum în căutarea fericirii, nu te lega la ochi și urechi, ci informează-te bine, verifică informațiile prin mai multe surse. Una dintre acestea este apelarea gratuită a numărului &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;0800 77777&lt;/span&gt; – Linia Fierbinte. Aici vei găsi un suport informațional dintr-o sursă de încredere. Înainte de a te decide să pleci, gândește-te bine la consecințe!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;E viața ta, nu te juca cu ea!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object width="425" height="344"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/rbW_9aI6xyw&amp;hl=ru_RU&amp;fs=1&amp;color1=0x234900&amp;color2=0x4e9e00"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/rbW_9aI6xyw&amp;hl=ru_RU&amp;fs=1&amp;color1=0x234900&amp;color2=0x4e9e00" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Spotul face parte din proiectul” Stop TRAFICULUI de fiinţe umane şi VIOLENŢEI în familie” și a fost realizat de către Centrul Tînărului Jurnalist din Moldova(CTJM), cu sprijinul Programului Naţiunilor Unite pentru Dezvoltare (PNUD), Fondului ONU pentru Populaţie (UNFPA), Misiunii în Moldova a Organizaţiei pentru Securitate şi Cooperare în Europa(OSCE) şi este finanţată de Guvernul Japoniei, prin Fondul ONU pentru Securitate Umană.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-800208205459943549?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/800208205459943549/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=800208205459943549' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/800208205459943549'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/800208205459943549'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2009/12/nu-te-lasa-traficata-nu-te-juca-cu.html' title='Nu te lăsa traficată, Nu te juca cu viața ta!'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-1958115131706104670</id><published>2009-12-06T19:00:00.005+02:00</published><updated>2009-12-06T20:43:19.152+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Posibilă încălcare?</title><content type='html'>Postul de televiziune Antena 3 a afișat rezultatele parțiale ale exit-pollului în partea dreaptă a ecranului preț de câteva secunde în timpul anunțării situației privind prezența la vot în țară.

Vă las să citiți mai jos rânduri din răvașul ei.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Intr-o toamna tarzie, fiica mea, Aria, a pornit spre America (in Dallas, statul Texas), fiind una din castigatoarele concursului "Loteria vizelor". Avea speranta ca isi va face un viitor decent, intr-o tara civilizata. Terminase o facultate de stat cu note mari, dar nu-si gasise un serviciu din care sa se intretina. Nu o aveam decat pe ea, sotul meu fiind decedat. Dupa terminarea facultatii, s-a tot specializat din banii ei, muncind pe rupte pe unde a gasit, facand pe contabila, vanzand carti pe strazile Bucurestiului, muncind la firme falimentare, pe bani foarte putini. Intr-o seara de vara din&lt;br /&gt;anul 2003, a iesit in parcul Cismigiu, cu pisicuta ei, Mitusca. In dreptul ei s-au oprit doi straini, un domn si o doamna, care vorbeau limba engleza. Erau entuziasmati de ce vedeau. "Cismigiul este plin de oameni cu caini, iubitori de animale, si uite acum si o pisica foarte frumoasa" au spus. Vazand ca fiica mea vorbeste limba engleza, dupa o conversatie animata, s-a inchegat intre ei o veritabila prietenie. Le-a placut Aria, firea ei deschisa, cu foarte mult bun simt. Se intalnea cu ei numai duminica. Imi spunea ca vrea sa-si perfectioneze limba engleza, conversand cu ei. Atat! Bineinteles, si-a deschis sufletul pana la capat, spunandu-le si de nereusitele ei de a gasi un post mai bine platit. Atunci cei doi americani au indrumat-o sa joace la Loteria vizelor, ca ei sunt oameni de afaceri, avand mai multe firme prospere, si daca ajunge acolo, o vor ajuta sa aiba o viata decenta. Ei bine, soarta a facut ca in 2004 fata mea sa castige viza. Ce fericita era! Imi spunea ca ma va ajuta si pe mine, stiindu-ma cu sanatatea subrezita. I-am spus deschis ca hotararea ei mi se pare riscanta, plecand in locuri necunoscute, avand incredere in oameni necunoscuti. Dar a ramas ferma in decizia ei. N-am avut putere s-o duc pana la aeroport. Ne-am despartit cu ochii in lacrimi, nu inainte ca ea sa-mi spuna "Saracia ne-a despartit!". Am primit un telefon scurt, cand a ajuns, apoi foarte rar, scrisori. Ce-a patimit in casa "prietenilor" din Cismigiu e greu de crezut. Trebuia sa aiba grija de doi copii, unul de 3 ani si altul de 5, sa faca curatenie la opt camere si doua bai, sa curete sambata piscina si sa se mute cu curatenia si la parintii lor, la un apartament. A incadrat-o la una din firmele lui, pe 400 dolari. Dimineata ducea copiii la gradinita, apoi la pranz ii lua si ramaneau in grija ei. Nu avea libertatea de a iesi singura. Din cei 400 dolari, imi trimitea si mie sa platesc imprumutul la banca, pe care il facusem la plecarea ei. Cel mai mult a prabusit-o lipsa de libertate, izolarea de lume. Nu mai spun de umilintele indurate. Se gandea sa plece din casa lor, dar avea prea putini bani. Avea nevoie de un serviciu mai bine platit, din care sa se intretina, sa poata plati taxele la stat, apoi o camera unde sa locuiasca. Cand n-a mai putut suporta, le-a spus ca pleaca. Nu s-au speriat, stiind ca nu are unde sa mearga, dar totusi a reusit. Si-a cumparat o masina ieftina, dupa ce si-a gasit pe internet o slujba, a inchiriat o camera, si-a gasit un serviciu la o firma, unde a fost apreciata la justa ei valoare si platita corespunzator. S-a inscris la cursurile de masterat, facultatea facuta in tara nefiindu-i recunoscuta, un master in finante, pe care si-l platea singura. Mereu m-a incurajat cand imi exprimam ingrijorarea ca munceste prea mult. "Dumnezeu nu m-a ales din cei 7 milioane de participanti la concursul Loteriei vizelor, ca sa ma aduca aici, unde sa cunosc numai suferinte", scria. Aceasta credinta in Dumnezeu i-a intarit speranta intr-o schimbare in bine, in toti anii petrecuti acolo, pana acum. Nu si-a facut nici un prieten, e total singura. Dar acum, Aria e intr-o situatie care pare fara iesire. Datorita crizei, firma unde lucra s-a inchis. Nu-si gaseste serviciu. Nu mai are nici somaj. A parcurs 10 cursuri, luate in majoritate cu calificativul A. Mai are doar patru si visul ei ar fi implinit. Apelez la cititorii revistei care s-au stabilit in SUA, in special in Dallas, cu rugamintea s-o contacteze si s-o sprijine macar moral, in cautarea unui serviciu, fiindca n-are din ce sa-si plateasca chiria, sa supravietuiasca si sa-si plateasca cursurile care i-au mai ramas. Apelez la sufletul romanului saritor, cald, cu credinta in Dumnezeu, s-o ajute si pe fiica mea. E disperata si singura! "Roaga-te pentru mine cu candela aprinsa", imi scrie.

Inițial acesta va fi lansat în SUA pe 20 noiembrie și va rula pe marile ecrane. În România acesta va fi lansat pe 27 noiembrie. Filmarea s-a desfășurat în perioada 23 Martie 2009 - 29 Mai 2009. Filmul a adus încasări totale de 1,832,000 $. Acesta are o durată de 130 de minute. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Din echipa de distribuție fac parte actorii: Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, Elizabeth Reaser, Kellan Lutz și alții.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Protagonista Bella Swan împlinește optsprezece ani, iar Alice și Edward, vampirul pe care îl iubește îi pregătesc o petrecere surpriză, doar că la acestă petrecere are loc cel mai mare coșmar a lui Edward. În timp ce Bella deschide un cadou, se taie în hârtie, iar Jasper nu își poate stapâni instinctele și o atacă, însa Edward o salveaza împingând-o din calea lui Jasper, acesta căzând pe o masă de sticlă unde se rănaște mai rau. Carlise este nevoit sa îi coase rănile. După acestă întâmplare, Edward vrea să o protejeze pe aceasta, așa că pleacă din orașul Forks împreună cu toată familia lui, gândindu-se că fiind om, va putea trece peste iubirea care o purta pentru ea. La aflarea veștii, Bella este distrusă și intră intr-o depresie severă din care nu își poate reveni, având serioase probleme de comportament la școală și în relația ei cu Charlie. Astfel că la patru luni de la plecarea lui Edward, își găsește în sfârșit liniștea lângă Jacob Black, un prieten de familie, dar și acesta are un secret la fel de mare ca al familiei Cullen. Bella se gândește în continuare la Edward și caută noi metode pentru al putea simiți mai aproape. Astfel, ea descoperă că de câte ori își riscă viața, ea putea să îi audă vocea vampirului pe care ea îl iubea mai mult decât viața sa. La un moment dat, Bella va trebui chiar să îl salveze pe Edward.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object width="560" height="340"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/KYBF3HKzrmE&amp;hl=ru&amp;fs=1&amp;"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/KYBF3HKzrmE&amp;hl=ru&amp;fs=1&amp;" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Sursă: cinemarx.ro&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-6693042421419588563?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/6693042421419588563/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=6693042421419588563' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/6693042421419588563'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/6693042421419588563'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2009/11/new-moon-gata-de-lansare.html' title='New Moon - gata de lansare'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/Svcrpqpbu0I/AAAAAAAAAcw/YxIJaBWa4-I/s72-c/New_Moon_1253723008_2009.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-2972623425177234850</id><published>2009-11-07T21:04:00.004+02:00</published><updated>2009-11-07T21:29:46.887+02:00</updated><title type='text'>18 ani de TVR Iași</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/SvXFj5i0X_I/AAAAAAAAAco/1niF0cicWsg/s1600-h/CIMG0263.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/SvXFj5i0X_I/AAAAAAAAAco/1niF0cicWsg/s320/CIMG0263.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5401440548633731058" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Studioul regional de televiziune TVR Iași a ajuns la vârsta majoratului. Cu ocazia celor 18 ani de la prima emisie, televiziunea și-a deschis larg porțile pentru telespectatorii sai. Cei care au pășit astăzi pragul TVR-ului, au avut ocazia să intre în studiourile de filmare ale emisiunilor de știri și de divertisment. Totodată, aceștia au putut să vadă tehnologia folosită în anii de după deschidere și cea pe care o folosesc acum. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Studioul teritorial Iași al Societății Române de Televiziune oferă spectatorilor săi emisiuni care reflectă viața comunităților din regiunea de nord-est a României, răspunzând astfel menirii sale de serviciu public.

Romanul este intitulat „100 de zile” și va aparea la editura Tritonic din București pe data de 28 noiembrie, la Tîrgul Internațional de Carte „Gaudeamus”. Aceasta vine odată cu alte apariții importante de la Tritonic. Este vorba despre cartea „Prețuiește Viața” aparținând Andreei Marin-Bănică. Stela Popa susține că după apariția cărții sale, aceasta va fi promovată și în marile orașe din Moldova. Data acestui eveniment este deocamdată necunoscută. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Directorul editurii Tritonic, Bogdan Hrib a spus: „Un roman scris în 2009 despre revolta din 2009 înseamnă nu numai actualitate, dar şi responsabilitate şi patriotism. Echipa de la Tritonic este onorată de colaborarea cu tânăra jurnalistă Stela Popa”. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cartea ne redă viața unor tineri din Tiraspol de pănă la și după evenimentele din 7 aprilie 2009 de la Chișinău. Romanul „100 de zile” are 464 de pagini și este constituit din trei părți: „Amintiri din trecut”, „Coridorul morții” și „Un sfârșit e un început”. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sursă informativă, poză: stelapopa.unimedia.md&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/775595942677538039-8966584467551429811?l=randyjournalism.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/feeds/8966584467551429811/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=775595942677538039&amp;postID=8966584467551429811' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/8966584467551429811'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/775595942677538039/posts/default/8966584467551429811'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://randyjournalism.blogspot.com/2009/11/100-de-zile-de-groaza.html' title='„100 de zile” de groază'/><author><name>Randy</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06394903042706921117</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/SvCbDkvEEJI/AAAAAAAAAcg/h_q9s0LqBBo/s72-c/stela-popa.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-775595942677538039.post-7930453880034411551</id><published>2009-11-01T15:41:00.007+02:00</published><updated>2009-11-01T16:05:27.243+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Băsescu la Iași cu un concert electoral</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/Su2R45ZdFtI/AAAAAAAAAcA/HWofNWu0PxI/s1600-h/CIMG0214.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/Su2R45ZdFtI/AAAAAAAAAcA/HWofNWu0PxI/s320/CIMG0214.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5399131934953379538" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/Su2R5KRQc8I/AAAAAAAAAcI/BGm__fNBSBU/s1600-h/CIMG0160.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/Su2R5KRQc8I/AAAAAAAAAcI/BGm__fNBSBU/s320/CIMG0160.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5399131939482399682" border="0"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Concertele electorale sunt în plină desfășurare în România. Actualul președinte Traian Băsescu a fost dumincă la Iași pentru a-i îndemna pe moldoveni să voteze în favoarea lui. Acesta a organizat un concert de muzică populară aducându-și totodată cu el și susținători. Zeci de autocare pline de elevi, studenți, maturi și persoane în etate au sosit la Iași pentru a face agitație în timpul concertului său electoral. Câteva mii de ieșeni au venit să urmărească concertul de muzică populară, dar și pentru a-l vedea și auzi pe Băsescu. În jurul orei 12, acesta, împreună cu echipa sa din PD-L au urcat pe scena din Piața Unirii. Pentru început, câțiva reprezentanți de partid au ținut un discurs. După ce Traian Băsescu a apărut în scenă, spiritele s-au încins. Mii de țărani veniți din diverse regiuni ale Moldovei au început să-l strige foarte energic.

Astfel, mii de fulare, jackete, stegulețe și fluturași – toate portocalii, au fost împărțite prin mulțime. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;P.S.

Cu această ocazie, membrii Asociației Tinerilor Români din Afara Granițelor din Iași (ATRAG), au organizat un eveniment comemorativ dedicat celor doi cântăreți. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/SutBH_sSKYI/AAAAAAAAAbw/fHj5DiO7Cn8/s1600-h/2.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/SutBH_sSKYI/AAAAAAAAAbw/fHj5DiO7Cn8/s320/2.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5398480183945734530" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;La ora 18, în Parcul Voievozilor s-a adunat un grup de tineri basarabeni și români cu flori și lumânări în mână. Aceștia le-au depus lângă portretele celor doi. După acest moment, cei prezenți au mers în Sala Gaudeamus a Casei de Cultură a Studenților. Aici s-au desfășurat o serie de activități culturale dedicate celor două nume. Un profesor din cadrul Universității „Alexandru Ioan Cuza” a ținut un discurs în memoria Doinei și Ion Aldea Teodorovici. Acesta a menționat faptul că a avut ocazia să-i cunoască la Chișinău, și că erau niște oameni cu suflet mare. Profesorul s-a mai referit și la evenimentele ce s-au desfășurat la Chișinău în perioada post-electorală din 2009 și a spus un „Bravo studenți” pentru curajul și stabilitatea de care au dat dovadă în această perioadă, dar și întotdeauna când au luptat pentru limba română. În continuarea programului, un grup de studenți au interpretat în acorduri de chitară muzica celor doi soți, făcând ca publicul să cânte și el. A urmat și un recital de poezie care i-a lăsat pe cei prezenți în sală destul de emoționați.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_UfafsMqh_lo/SutBHhFI5BI/AAAAAAAAAbo/zzuXhNk-lL0/s1600-h/4.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:right;
