2010 like 2009: No business as usual(”¦and too many people still ...

[Ilias Papageorgiadis' blog for Real Estate in Romania (and not only)] Let us check together what we experienced over these first 60 days of 2010, mainly in Romanian Real Estate market: Too many people dream”¦ Euro was down by almost 10% (against dollar) and this helped RON rise to the exchange rate of 4,1.

[C(h)ristian's Blog] The present paper investigates the recent history of the Romanian family as a heteropatriarchal matrix for metaphors of masculinity at the beginning of the 21st century, as it is heralded by the main radical right populist party Greater Romania Party (Partidul România Mare, PRM). Focusing on Greater Romania Magazine (RRM, Revista România Mare) - the party’s main media outlet- the analysis focuses on PRM leader’s editorials during a well defined timeframe in recent history of Romanian radical right populism, from the preparations for presidential elections in 2000, which witnessed PRM leader’s surprising run off, through the subsequent presidential elections in 2004, and up EU Parliamentary elections in 2009, that enabled PRM to send three representatives to European Parliament.

[BAMBOO NATION] —a stark, depressing, nerve-jangling thriller about two women in hot pursuit of an illegal abortion in 1980s Romania—I left the theater thinking, "Man, Romania is a shithole!" (By the way, I had to see that film by myself because none of my friends wanted to join me when I asked them, "Do you want to go see that Romanian abortion movie?" Apparently, the words "Romanian abortion movie" is a turnoff.)

IN CASE YOU DON'T KNOW MUCH ABOUT ROMANIAN ART « Viceland Today

[Viceland Today] on art and all that, then you could still do with learning a bit more about art in Romania. Tom Wilson and Milos Jovanovic have just released 100 To Watch, a sort of directory of the new wave of Romanian art. They made 1,000 limited-edition copies and an accompanying website. Tom sent us 20 copies of the book, so if you want one, email the UK office, but you must be able to come and pick it up because there’s no way we’re shipping it to you overseas.

Free learning: Yes to Romanian, no to physics « Joanne Jacobs

[Joanne Jacobs] Dean tells the tale of two recent college grads who’ve designed a no-cost study abroad program using MIT’s OpenCourseWare.  Ann Nguyen and Alison Cole will work on environmental engineering projects in India, while “using the syllabi from MIT OCW’s courses in ground hydrology, soil behavior and aquatic chemistry to construct a program that will study arid-land restoration.”  They’ll run up no grad-school debt, but they’ll also acquire no academic credits.  Will future employers be impressed? That remains to be seen.
