E vara. Cald. Prea cald. In oras e si  mai cald. Cand s-or inventa masini enorme de aer conditionat care sa ne racoreasca orasul? Ups, am uitat, exista de cand lumea si se numesc copaci. Sau pomi. Sau arbori. Au multe nume insa sunt putini la nu

Fashion Outlet Romania Se anunta cu surle si trambite deschiderea primului magazin de tip outlet din Romania. In Bucuresti, evident. Desi termenul de deschidere a fost prelungit cu 1 saptamana (pe motive ca nu toate magazinele si-au terminat amenajarile), centrul de magazine va prinde valul cumparaturilor de Craciun. Personal, nu sunt foarte curioasa cum e complexul asta de tip outlet. Sigur va fi inghesuiala mare, vanzatorii nepregatiti de asaltul cumparatorilor si lucrurile neterminate. Exemplu clasic de “pom laudat”. (more…)

Bucharest Coat of ArmsFebruary 2008. It's time for Bucharest , our capital city, to choose its mascot. It's a little late for that, but not too late. So many basic things need attention in Bucharest, that choosing a mascot in 2008 it's never too late. A mascot is a person, animal, or object believed to bring good luck, especially one kept as the symbol of an organization such as a sports team. The city hall did some serious brainstorming and came up with these ideas: 1. from the animal kingdom: the lion, the aquila, the ladybug and the white butterfly; 2. from the vegetal kingdom: the plane-tree, the acorn, the daisy, the snowdrop and the four-leaf clover; 3. architecture: the Palace of the Parliament, the Patriarchal Palace, the Romanian Athenaeum, the ,,George Enescu" Museum and the and CEC Palace. Wikipedia says that the rose and the golden eagles are Romania's national emblems. But we do not have a national personification. Bucharest Plane-Tree MascotThe city hall's web site will host a poll destined the find out the opinion of the people. My vote goes to the plane-tree: if this symbol will win, the city hall will have to plant a lot of these trees in Bucharest, so at least we will have more green around us. Even the snowdrop is a good symbol: it represents a new beginning, a fresh start and the power to break through the freezing snow. And Bucharest needs a fresh start to clean up its reputation of a dirty, insecure, crowded and polluted European capital city. Bucharest Snowdrop MascotStill, I agree with the opinion the professionals should decide the mascot of Bucharest, not the citizens. From my point of view, the people of Bucharest are too disappointed and angry on their mayor & co to make a wise decision. So far, all the news regarding the Bucharest's mascot is from news portals. I'm still looking for an official post or poll on the city hall's website. I'll keep you posted if I'll find something interesting :) .

interesting romanian blogosphere... blogging. For those of you who never heard of a Romanian blog (or even a blog written in a foreign language by a Romanian), take a look on these numbers and think again:

- 4,819 blogs rss-fed by
rss.mioritics.ro, 4,384 blogs listed on zelist.ro (link love) and 2,333 blogs monitored by trafic.ro (number of unique visitors); - 33.47% of Romanian blogs are written in English (too); - Most Popular Platforms for blogging: WordPress, Blogger and Weblog; - Most Popular Communities: Netlog, FaceBook, MySpace, hi5; We are there, on the World Map of Bloggers. The Romanian blogosphere is growing by the day, in quality and quantity. After all, leaving in Romania is far from boring; life takes care of us, throwing all sorts of challenges at us on a daily basis. Bottom Line: read Romanian blogs for new ideas and news about our country and communities. Subscribe them to your rss feeder. You never know where a good idea jumps from. Or how a simple view on life can change your point of view.
