Sibiu, Romania – April 29th 2009

Adopt Jack

jackThis is what you get if you mix a Bulldog with a Mastiff. Originally bred to find and immobilize poachers, the breed has proven popular as a family pet.

Name: Jack

Age: 10 months

He’s looking for a new family to take him in. Contact me for details.

LATER EDIT:  Jack has found a new home. Good boy!

Moldova riots

Our Moldovan brothers are struggling to overturn corrupt election results of the communist party, while CNN and other media talk about the influence of social networking in this matter. Their authorities already started a cyber counter-attack, blocking access to these web networking services.

Seems to me they are missing the whole point. It’s not about the social networks, it’s about people, and what people want – remember December 22nd, 1989, when Romania was facing a major turning point in it’s history. Would things be any different today, if we had Twitter? Doubt it.

My 2 euro cents.

P.S. Seems Romania gets the blame for what is happening. That’s a new one! :-)

Dacia Duster

Dacia Duster Concept

Dacia Duster Concept

Yes people, it’s our very own Dacia, powered by Renault.  It’s supposed to address the youth market with a crossover utility and headlights that strech right to the car middle. And don’t forget about the suicide doors. I believe this concept really deserves the name Dusty, from all the sitting around on the design board since the 90’s. Nothing modern here, just a design cliche and a 1.5 dCi engine that spits out just 139g of CO2/km.

But even if we just sit around talking about it, let’s not forget that the production model is just going to look like a slightly jacked-up Sandero with extra plastic around the bottom half. After all, it’s a Dacia! :-)

A matter of national security

pmo1761

Our government has done it again! As some of you might know there is now a law that invades our privacy and it’s totally unconstitutional. The law nr. 298/2008 clearly states that our authorities can listen/store our phone conversations, read/store our text and email messages, view/store our name, physical address and login time based on our IP. Don’t tell me this is part of the Constitution when art. 28 clearly states that our conversations are private.

You can do something about it and tell our government to go fuck themselves by signing this online petition. We can make a difference.

P.S. This also concerns you, foreign visitor. Make a difference by signing this petition, or your country will be next. This law follows the 2006/24/EC  directive on the retention of data generated or processed in connection with the provision of publicly available electronic communications services or of public communications networks and amending Directive 2002/58/EC.

P.P.S This sexy girl in the picture is there just to get your attention. It is not a bonus if you sign the petition.

Whopper Virgins

Burger King launched a controversial campaign called Whopper Virgins, in which the nice people of Maramures, Romania are involved. They are the poor “indigenous” people that have never got the chance to experience the divin touch of the great American burgers, so Burger King decided to help out these poor bastards and give them a piece of heaven. The Maramureseni loved it! :)

Here’s part of the Burger King teaser concerning the campaign. You can look for other stuff for yourself, I don’t want to get into this- I am appalled.

This is a great response to the Burger King campaign, I would like to congratulate the people who made this.

P.S. Fuck you Burger King, for that dangerous combination of massive obesity and stupidity that you try spread all over the world.
