Reaching the international buyer

Across the globe, despite the impact of the credit crunch, many buyers are still actively seeking opportunities in overseas property and two international magazines, Overseas Property Professional (OPP) and OPP Russia, have recently highlighted Romania as a market for agents to consider for their clients.

The World’s Happiest Nations

I found an article posted on Trump Blog by Mr. Donald Trump’s about “The World’s Happiest Nations”. According to this, the happiest nation is Denmark. Enjoy the article below: How happy are you? Not as happy as if you were living in Denmark, apparently. Denmark is the world’s most content nation, according to a recent study on global well-being. Surprisingly, I think, the United States is way down the happiness list at the Number 16 spot. Researchers at the University of Michigan said Denmark earned the top spot thanks to economic prosperity, stability and democracy. “I strongly suspect there is … Continue reading The World’s Happiest Nations

Unele companii au ales sa profite de pe urma clipurilor piratate care apar pe YouTube

Dupa ce ani intregi au considerat videoclipurile piratate de pe YouTube ca o amenintare, mai multe companii de media si-au schimbat parerea si folosesc YouTube ca o oportunitate de reclama, arata un articol publicat in editia online a International Herald Tribune. In ultimele cateva luni, companii de media cum ar fi CBS, Universal Music, Lionsgate sau Electronic Arts au incetat sa ceara YouTube sa opreasca difuzarea neautorizata a unor filme, videoclipuri sau alte continuturi produse de aceste companii si au inceput, in schimb, sa vanda reclama folosind continuturile respective. CBS este, in mod surprinzator, cel mai nou partener de afaceri … Continue reading Unele companii au ales sa profite de pe urma clipurilor piratate care apar pe YouTube

Madonna reached an incredible age – 50 years old having in mind how she looks, how she sings and how much vitality has during her live shows.

The human being and the technology

I had a revelation when I saw the movie Transformers last year which, by the way is an excellent movie. Its idea is that we, the humans are so dependent on our electronic systems, gadgets, computers, tv’s, radio’s, cars and are very vulnerable when all these collapse due to a power crash or are gone from different reasons. Do we still know how to find North using the trees? How time is it using the Sun? How to feed ourselves if we get lost in a wood for a few days? How to know what kind of weather will come … Continue reading The human being and the technology

To take care vs not to take care

I found this picture on the web … I liked it but I didn’t think that the comparison is made in the correct way. A woman can look great no matter if she lives in US or EU. I’m not in a position to judge, and nobody is, but except medical problems, every woman should strive to have the best look possible according with the age. Of course, you know, there are many things in life which happens without us having possibility to control them. But at least, when we have the budget established we can choose what to eat … Continue reading To take care vs not to take care
