O poveste despre Capitalism, frigider vs. eschimos

2012-03-04T18:02:00.003+02:00

Mi-am adus aminte de o poveste de ”succes”nord-americană! Acolo se spune că un expert în vânzări trebuie să reușească săvândă și frigidere eschimoșilor! Nimic mai adevărat și maicapitalist!

Plecând de la această ”performanță”, într-o corporație capitalistă producătoarede electrocasnice (la care mulți dintre noi visăm sau visam să lucrăm – sunahigh rezonanța de multinațională!) s-a pus această problemă, să fie vândutefrigidere eschimoșilor (în acest caz populației native din Alaska ).

La o întâlnire de brainstorming a fost dezvoltată această idee: cum vindemfrigidere eskimoșilor? foarte simplu, răspunde cineva! îi convingem că își punfamiliile în pericol dacă nu țin mancare într-un frigider! inventăm uninstitut care a făcut un studiuși rezolvam problema! Genial! Alt specialistridică o altă problemă: dar ei nu au curent, că locuiesc în igloo-uri! Mda,spuse managerul! Asta este o problemă! Le vindem generatoare, spuse cineva dela masa! Discutăm cu o firmă care face așa ceva! Da! excelent! Altcineva de lamasă ridică o altă problemă și mai spinoasă: dragii mei! sunteți copii?generatoarele merg pe combustibil! de unde dracu benzinării? Mda, cred căproblema devine nerealistă spuse managerul! Asa cum am abordat problemageneratoarelor, așa vom aborda și problema benzinăriilor, spuse un altparticipant la întâlnire! Vorbim cu o firmă de specialitate! Da, putem faceasta, spuse managerul! Un finanțist prezent la ședință îi întreabă peceilalți: dragii mei, v-am ascultat pe toti! Problema ridicată de voi esteîngrozitor de aberantă! Eschimoșii nu au venituri, ei trăiesc din ce produc!Dacă nu au bani, cum dracu vindeți voi frigidere, generatoare, benzină? Se lasăliniștea! Din penumbra scaunului managerului apare un evreu bătrân îmbrăcatimpecabil, finanțist de meserie (cum altfel), persoană pe care puțini de lamasă o vedeau în firmă și aprope niciunul nu o cunoștea! Le spune tuturorpe un ton blând: ori nu aveți habar de societatea în care trăiți, ori suntețisuperficiali, ori sunteți stupizi! Ideea cu frigiderele este genială! Mairămâne o miică problemă! Banii! Dar avem mai mulți decât imaginația noastrăpoate duce! Cum banii sunt virtuali, îi putem transfera oricui, oricând,oriunde! prin credit! așa că mai adăugați și servicii de creditareproduselor dumneavoastră, faceți contracte de credit avantajoase (cui ?)!

S-a lăsat liniștea.......apoi managerul, pe un ton prietenos le spunce cleorprezenți: daca nu aveți ceva de adăugat! La treabă!

După 3 luni: regiunea target avea peste 100 de benzinării (din 5 inițial),hypermarket-uri vreo 10 (din 1), sucursale bancare 150 (din 2 inițial), familiide eskimoși cu frigidere: aprope toți! ajunsese frigiderul un statut social! nuai frigider,nu ai valoare! îți vor muri copiii intoxicați cu bacteria inventatăde institutul virtual din ședința de brainstorming!
După 6 luni au început să dispară benzinăriile, de la 100 la 40,hypermarket-urile s-au împuținat (de la 10 la 3), sucursalele bancare șimai puține: de la 150 la 30! Famili de eskimoși cu frigidere: toți, dar puținireușeau să le mai folosească pentru ca nu aveam bani de combustibil pentrugenerator!

După 1 an regiunea target avea 5 benzinării, 1 hypermarket, 2 sucursalebancare, toți eskimoșii aveau frigidere și generatoare, niciunul nu maimergea, dar în schimb toți primeau notificări că dacă nu își plătesc datoriilevor fi dați afară de pe pământurile lor!

După 1 an și jumătate regiunea nu mai avea decât 1 benzinărie, niciunhypermarket, 1 sucursală bancară, și toți proprietarii de frigidere lacoadă la cantina săracilor! Le-au fost executate terenurile și prin asta șimijloacele de subzistență!

Vă sună cunoscut? Cred ca da! Se numește capitalism! Bineînțeles că am văzutfotografiile zonei target din Alaska în primele 3 luni, și am rămas cugura căscată realizând că ei acolo au absolut tot ce le trebuie iar mie îmilipsesc unele dintre ele într-o capitală europeană! Dar oare fotografia aiaexprima adevarul sau era o iluzie?

Să tragem linie: corporația de electrocasnice și-a primit banii pefrigidere (comisionate de hypermarketuri) de la băncile ce acordau credite,firmele de sculeși-au primit banii pe generatoare de la băncile care aucreditat achiziționarea lor (comisionate de hypermarketuri), benzinăriile auvandut o perioadă (probabil pe carduri de credit), băncile au caștigat cel maimult având și terenurile eskimoșilor executate prin neplata creditelor șibanii pe creditele neplătite de eskimoși pentru că i-au primit de la statpentru a evita falimentul economiei globale (cică). Și eskimoșii? fărăterenuri, fără frigidere, fără generatoare, fără viitoarele venituri (popriri),fără viitor!

Concluzia!

Nu vă cumpărați produse pe care nu vi le permiteți (finanțiștii spun că dacă nuputeți acoperi din surse proprii 25 -40 % din valoarea unui produs, înseamnă cănu vi-l permiteți, cu toate ofertele tentante ale băncilor).

Nu vă cumpărați produse inutile (și eu am în casă nenumărate cuțite electrice,feliatoare, mixere, mașini facut tăiței, etc!). Nu fiți eskimoși!
Învățați din această criză, informați-vă asupra produselor pe care le doriți,gândiți-vă dacă într-adevăr aveți nevoie de ele! Adaptați-vă cumpărăturiledupă propriile necesități nu după ce vedeți la alții sau după ședința deamețeală a vreunui reponsabil de vânzări! Fiți eficienți cu propria viață șicu propriile venituri! Trăiți sănătos și curat!

S-a dus vremea când băieţii veneau cu buchete de flori imense la iubitele lor. Acum s-a întors roata. Un tânăr american, student la facultatea de biologie şi pasionat de flora exotică a primit cel mai frumos cadou de la iubita lui.

Aceasta a venit cu un imens buchet de flori pe care le-a comandat tocmai din Hawaii. Pentru că a vrut să observe în detaliu fiecare floare din buchet, tânărul a fotografiat fiecare floare în parte şi a avut parte de o surpriză plăcută.

Choosing Your Marijuana - Sativa or Indica?

2012-02-08T19:47:00.003+02:00

Marijuana comes in two basic types - sativa and indica. Which type you choose will determine the effects you feel. Each type has its own distinct set of charasteristics.Sativas are known for their height and their leggy, often sparse, leaves. Sativas can be anywhere from tall and round like a massive bush, to lean and spindly with a few large colas. The leaves - a trademark of the sativa strain - are long and thin. The odor varies with the particular strain that is growing.The sativa high is often characterized as uplifting and energetic. The effects of a sativa marijuana are mostly cerebral. They give a feeling of optimism and well - being, as well as providing a good measure of pain relief for certain symptoms. A few pure sativas are also very high in THC content. They are known to have a quite spacey, or hallucinogenic, effect. Sativas are a good choice for daytime smoking.Indicas are known for their smaller stature. They are relatively short and bushy. Some are compact, others are of a more moderate height. Indicas tend to grow wider and rounder than sativas. Many look like small shrubs. Indicas typically grow out many more smaller side colas.The indica highs are most often described as a pleasant body buzz. Indicas are great for relaxation, stress relief, and for an overall sense of calm and serenity. Marijuana indicas are also very effective for overall body pain relief, and often used in the treatment of insomnia. They are the late - evening choice of many smokers as an all - night sleep aid. A few pure indica strains are very potent in THC, and will cause the "couchlock" effect, enabling the smoker to simply sit still and enjoy the experience of the smoke.Marijuana strains are available in the entire spectrum from pure sativas to pure indicas, and in every combination in - between. There are 30% sativa - 70% indica strains, there are 80% sativa - 20% indica strains, and many, many 50% - 50% combinations, as well as others.It takes some time and a lot of experimentation to find the most effective balance for each person, but one thing is for sure - there is a marijuana strain available somewhere that would please any smoker.http://www.marijuana-seeds.net/Choosing-Your-Marijuana-Sativa-or-Indica-.htmlhttp://growhd.tv/

How to Ride a Bicycle

2011-11-16T12:24:00.001+02:00

Do you wish to go outside and ride a bike? Maybe you're embarrassed that you don't know how to ride a bike yet? Or quite possibly, you're as eager as anything to start riding and enjoying one of the most satisfying and healthy forms of self-transportation possible!

EditSteps

Primary Method

1
Prepare the bike. If it is your first time riding, consider lowering the seat so that you can put most of your feet on the ground while seated. Also check the tire pressure, brakes and such.

2
Make sure that you know the basic fundamentals of riding. For example:
- The rear brake is normally used by beginners for simplicity. The front brake is much better at stopping the bike, but has the potential to cause a crash if used improperly. If the rear brakes fail then the front brakes should be gradually used until the bike is stopped. It is much better to become comfortable using the front brake to stop, as this will allow you to stop in much less distance than the rear. Also, being familiar with the use of individual brakes is important, in case one does fail.
- Riding on the sidewalk is inappropriate or illegal or dangerous in some areas, particularly urban areas.
- Balance is easier to keep when the rider is moving faster. Going too slowly while riding will not keep the rider safe.
- Helmets are necessary and helpful.
3
Get to know bike balance. Push yourself along with your feet and get the feel of how the bike leans and steers. Do this for 30-45 minutes or so, until you have a good feel and some confidence about steering the bike. Try pushing yourself along fast and "gliding" with your feet up in the air, just steering with your hands. Notice the tendency of your body to lean slightly into the curve to keep balance when just using your hands to steer. When you are up to it, instead of using your hands try to make turns with your body and let the bike follow you, you'll notice that the front wheel will also make the turn automatically. This is the key bike-riding skill, that of balancing and steering. Take as much time with this step as you need to feel confident.
4
Get ready to ride. Re-attach the pedals to the bike. Raise the seat a bit, but still keep it low enough, so that you can touch the ground with the tip of your toes while seated.
5
Hold the bike with the handlebars and just walk it around the area.
6
When you have got the balancing feeling, go to the top of the slope and try to get on the front of the bike. (Not on the seat but in front of it!) You should be able to stand. (Note: Always stand at the top of the bike when going on!)
7
When you are on the front of the bike, walk down holding the handlebars. (It may look silly but don't worry.)
8
After you have done that a couple of times, go to the top of the slope and raise your left foot off the ground. Then kick with your right foot. (Similar to walking but with the left foot above the ground.)
9
Do this 2-3 times and then go to the top of the slope again and put your left foot suspended in the air. This time, try to "glide" by kicking less and going 3-5 feet between kicks.
10
Now try with the left foot kicking and the right foot off the ground.
11
Ok, now you've done the hard part. Once you've got the hang of this, try to go up to 10 feet without kicking. (Don't worry it isn't that hard once you've got the hang of it).
12
This time when you're going down try to sit on the bike seat, after about 3 feet of gliding. Your feet should still be able to touch the ground, if they aren't then adjust the seat lower.
13
Do this about 3 times and then when you are going down put your left foot on the pedal. But do not move it, still using right foot to glide down.
14
Now do that again but with the opposite feet.
15
Once you are comfortable doing it, try to put both feet down after gliding. (You should be able to go 20+ feet with gliding now.) Practice this until you feel comfortable going to the next step.
16
Once you've gained enough speed, try to pedal ONCE with the feet once you are sitting on the seat and both feet are on the pedals.
17
Try to pedal more times slowly, working your way up to 2,3,4, etc...
18
When you feel you've mastered the pedaling, try a 'cold start' on flat ground. First put your pedals in a horizontal position, put your left foot on the pedal and keep the right foot on the ground or the other way around if it is more comfortable. Then Use your right (or left if you chose the other way) foot to give yourself some initial speed while pushing down the pedal with your left (or right), draw your (right or left) foot up to the pedal and start pedaling right away.
19
Find a spot with an EASY turn or a large area, when you are going down and have gained a good speed try to slightly turn(without pedaling) to the right, then left.
20
Now we go to an important part: braking. Depending on what kind of brakes your bike will differ the training. When using hand brakes, the front brake is the primary brake. On paved surfaces, you should try to apply the front brake about three times as hard as the rear. If the rear wheel starts to skid, you should reduce pressure on both brakes evenly. On loose surfaces it will be better to apply the rear brake with more force than usual to prevent the front wheel locking up. If your bike has foot-brakes (more common in the USA than in Europe ) try to get the pedals in a horizontal position before braking, that way you'll be able to exert more braking power. Practice slowing down (correctly) when trying to stop going downhill. Put your left foot as low as the pedal goes and step on the ground with the right foot once you have slowed enough. The same goes for riding uphill but you won't have to use the brake as much, just wait for it to slow down.
21
Now you have learned how to ride downhill, just practice turning and you will be fine. (Note: For most slopes you will just need to glide.)
22
Now we will get to a harder part, going uphill. Start by going to a very SLIGHTLY uphill area. Start as you normally do except this time start by putting your left foot on the pedal to help gain speed easily, (Do this when you are going to go downhill too once you are used to it.) make sure the pedal is high up so you have a long distance to push. Push the pedal with the left(or the right) leg and the ground with the right (or the left) and you should be moving. Practice this 4-6 times!
23
Once you can do that and go 10 feet, then try to glide, then once you've gained balance try to sit on the seat and pedal.
24
Turning when going uphill is different and more difficult from turning downhill. It is the same concept but you have to gain very much speed to do so. Also make sure that you aren't pedaling while turning, unless you are in need of more speed.
25
Well that's all there is to learning to ride a bike! Practice daily and you will become good at it!
26
Ride. Once you can balance, pedal, start, and stop, (in this order) you're a bicycle rider. Congratulations!

Secondary Method

1
Sitting on the bike, make sure you know where the brakes are and how to operate them.
2
You have to learn to balance the bike. Find a person who can hold your bike behind you and try to steady it as you pedal. Also find a place to ride that is grassy or such.
3
After practicing for a couple minutes, the person can release his or her hands while you try to keep your balance.
4
When you are ready, ride alone. But first lower the seat until you can sit on it and put both feet flat on the ground.
5
When you are confident you can put your feet on the pedals and coast for a few feet, try not putting your feet down to train your sense of balance. Do this for 30-45 minutes or so, until you have a good feel and some confidence about steering the bike.
6
As you gain experience, raise the seat up so that only your toes can touch the ground while you are seated. This is the more appropriate height for your seat.
7
Finally, you have to practice.
8
Once you can balance, pedal, start, and stop, you're a bicycle rider. Congratulations!

EditTips

Find a safe open area to practice on away from traffic. School yards, soccer fields and empty parking lots are decent places to practice.
Learn to use the brakes properly before riding down hills.
The bicycle seat should be in a low position for learning only, once you can ride, it should be raised to avoid strain on your knees. You legs should be almost fully extended on the downstroke.
Be patient, and don't be afraid of falling down from the bike. It helps to 'become friends' with the bike, as in, to trust it and go slow at first.
Don't worry if you take some time to get used to the motion and balance. Keep working, because it is an essential process.
Practice more. Once a person becomes proficient, he or she does not need to practice as frequently as someone who is just learning. Someone can forget all they learned in a few weeks sitting at home doing nothing.
Don't quit if a minor scrape or other mild injury occurs. Wear extra padding if required but remember that the more you ride, the less likely this will happen again.
Look for a bicycle rulebook or manual or similar in your local multipurpose store, bike shop or municipal authority. Such a manual should contain helpful tips for safe road riding and for bike maintenance.
Keep your arms relaxed as you pursue step 5. The design shape of the bike will make it balance by itself, as long as you don't interfere with it too much. (This is the reason why some people can ride with no hands.)
Do not assume the intention of other road users; always assume you are the most reasonable road user at the moment by acting responsibly and watching out for others, including other cyclists.
You can also wear a protective cup if you want.
In the Netherlands are many special bicycle roads. You can hire a bike easily in Holland, and practicing to ride a bike.
If you cannot get a hold of a helmet/gloves, it might be best to practice on grass, first, rather than pavement. Note that, in some places, if you ride a bike on pavement, its a law to wear a helmet while doing so.
- Riding your bike is like living your life: you will (subconsciously)head toward whatever you're looking at (rough patch vs smooth path),so you are best off looking ahead consciously deciding your way; and you will succeed in whatever you believe in with practice. It's good to check your STRESS LEVEL as you approach challenges, and know that you have already decided to go for the task, so you might as well relax, breathe, and enjoy it all. A calm but alert mind and body will feel more comfort, realize better health and safety, and achieve greater success. So, breathe and relax!! Calm and alert. A smile is a good rule of thumb. Just like life.
Similar to the above tip, remember that if you look towards a ditch or curb, you WILL go there or at least close to there, so stay safe and look to where you're riding.
Going downhill is easier. Try and get the flow going as the speed itself would help balance the bike. Apply the brake so you will not fall or lose control of the bike and and always keep the bike straight. You will find it will be much easier after you go downhill a few times.
Don't worry! Once you learn to ride a bike, you will never completely forget how to ride it.
Riding a bike with gears is harder than riding one with none, especially for beginners. Just remember that a lower gear like 1 or 2 will make you do less effort, at the expense of you going slower. 1 or 2 is recommended for uphill and straight riding. A higher gear like 5, 8 or even 10 depending on the bike is usually best for downhill or experienced riders because although pedaling is much harder, more speed will come out of one cycle. Ideal for downhill.
Training wheels can help you get the "feel" of riding a bike. Just don't rely on them too much.
For those interested in the physics of bike control, Bike balance and bike turning is all about the dynamic action of having the rear tire make a smaller radius than the front tire, causing the bike to want to straighten up. Just leaning on a bike doesn't turn it so much as get the front an wheel out of alignment. once you get the hang of riding a bicycle, you can see this effect by riding through a puddle, then making a turn, if you inspect your bike tracks, you'll find that the front tire goes the wrong way before the turn is made, thus creating two paths for the tires. Motorcyclist often apply this as a term called counter-steer wherein the cyclist applies a minute amount of steering effort in the opposite direction of the intended path to get the front and rear tires out of alignment, and then applies appropriate steering input to maintain this state of tire disequilibrium until deemed appropriate and the steering is gradually neutralized allowing the rear tire to return to alignment with the front. Although slightly beyond the scope of this wikiHow, the same can be applied to bicycles, where it is more perceptible at higher velocities. Although the theoretical understanding of this is not crucial to be a proficient cyclist, the practical application is important to become a smooth and relaxed cyclist.
The brakes are not always where you think they are. British bikes tend to have the front brake on the right bar and the rear brake on the left, whereas bikes from other parts of the world have them the other way round.Make sure to test which lever controls which brake before you set off.

EditWarnings

Be careful when you ride a bike and watch for traffic.
Make sure you have proper safety equipment. A helmet is a must and elbow and knee pads are recommended.
Before you ride in traffic, learn more about cycling and the rules of the road. Remember that a bicycle is a legal vehicle and always ride with the traffic, not against it. Even if you are on a sidewalk, ride with the traffic. This is because a car turning across the traffic often will not check for traffic going in the opposite direction, including your bicycle.
In some areas, there is a minimum age for driving in the same lane as a motor vehicle. Usually it is something like 12 or 13, up to maybe 17.
Don't ride in traffic if you don't know how to (1) keep your bike consistently within 3 feet of the edge of the road unless you are on a multi lane road the you should be in the centre of the correct lane, (2) make hand signals, and (3) quickly look behind yourself while pedaling so you can assess upcoming traffic.
Teach your kids and/or friends about the dangers of speeding as well as the basic traffic signs and signals.
Always wear a helmet. In the event of an accident, a helmet could mean the difference between living and dying. The one time you forget to wear a helmet could be the one time you get in an accident. In fact, riders without helmets are 14 times more likely to be in a fatal crash than their helmeted counterparts. Again, when riding a bicycle, always remember to wear a helmet!

EditThings You'll Need

A bicycle (a bike with gears is more preferable)
A bike pump (for increasing tire pressure)
A helmet (optional depending on laws)
Knee pads
Elbow pads
Shin guards
A non busy street or park or even parking lot, at night
Training wheels (optional)
Gloves (optional, for better handlebar grip, uncommon)

Lordoza

2011-11-13T09:16:00.001+02:00

Coloana vertebrala prezinta 4 curburi fiziologice: 2lordoze-in regiunea cervicala si lombara- si 2 cifoze- in regiunea toracala sisacrala. Curburile normale dau coloanei o mare elasticitate, permitandu-i sa secomporte in cadere ca un resort, amortizandu-le, spre deosebire de spateleplat. Tot curburile, pastreaza proiectia centrului de greutate in interiorulpoligonului de sustinere.

Deviatiile coloanei vertebrale sunt provocate de diferiti factori etiopatogeni.Ele sunt: scolioza, cifoza si lordoza.

Lordoza este o deviatie a coloanei vertebrale cu convexitate anterioara, prinexagerarea curburilor normale ale coloanei. Datorita mai ales tonusului crescutsi muschiului iliopsoas si slabirii tonusului abdominalilor, bazinul cade maimult inainte decat normal si astfel se exagereaza curbura lombara. O cauzafavorizanta la femei este purtarea incaltamintii cu tocuri inalte, care duc lainclinarea bazinului inainte si a trunchiului inapoi.

Aparitia lordozei a fost pusa in legatura cu pozitia incorecta a corpului, fiedin obisnuinta , fie din cauza vreunei slabiciuni a muschilor. In unele cazurilordoza apare la femei dupa sarcina, deoarece exista o slabiciune a muschilorabdominali.

Lordoza este prezenta si in locurile cu luxatie congenitala de sold bilateralasi in spondilolistezis,adica alunecarea in fata, partiala sau totala,a uneivertebre sau a unui segment de coloana vertebrala.

Tratamentul lordozei consta in reechilibrarea bazinului, care rezulta dinactiunea a doua cupluri antagoniste: muschii abdominali si fesieri - cuplulcorector si muschi lombari si iliopsoas - cuplul deformant.

5 serii de exercitii , ce pot fi folosite in tratarea lordozei fara a fi nevoiede tratamentul chirurgical.

Westerners jealous of Chinese driving good cars

2011-10-02T12:54:00.000+02:00

The shameless story began by a group of rich oversea students in Canada who got fined for illegal street racing, and they described “Westerners jealous of Chinese driving good cars”….

Took place in Vancouver metropolitan city of Surrey, 13 members of a “Super Sports Car Club” composed of ethnic Chinese “fu er dai” (rich Chinese youth) were intercepted by police while racing on a busy highway and fined.

The group of fu er dai are living extremely extravagantly, they wore name brand watches (worth tens of thousands Canadian dollars), have mobile phones (worth thousands of Canadian dollars), driving luxury cars…

“Super Sports Car Club” originally did not have any illegal racing event and the club also had cooperation with the local police to promote message like “don’t drink and drive”. However, since many of the creators of the club were graduated and gone back to China, the mess started. Club’s new members — the group of fu er dai refused to follow the club’s tenets and decided to go the other way around. They used their car to block cars to clear the road, and conducted illegal car race. People who were affected by them had called the polices, consequently they all were fined.

Well, this doesn’t make them feel regrets and remorse but spoke out:

“Laowai are jealous of Chinese people in fancy cars.”
“The police lack money.”

They even attempted to argue they did not speed at all, saying if they really were going 200km/h like people say, then their fine couldn’t have been just 196 Canadian dollars.

When the police towed their beloved car away, they took pictures and said they are happy, and some said this picture is an approval of being wild in youth, claimed would show his children someday to tell his daddy was wild one.

The 13 vehicles seized:

2007 Ferrari 599
2010 Lamborghini Gallardo
2010 Lamborghini Gallardo
2009 Lamborghini Gallardo
2009 Audi R8
2012 Nissan GT-R

2010 Maserati Turismo

How to Get Six Pack Abs

2011-10-01T13:01:00.000+02:00

Strengthen your abdominal core muscles and lose your body fat. The concept may sound simple, but putting it into action can be quite challenging. It will take dedication, time and patience to get a six pack; but in the end, the effort is well worth it. To get six pack abs you need to do two things: lose fat and build muscle . You get this by dieting and exercising daily. You can have the most toned and muscular abs, but it will not show if there is a layer of fat over them. This article will discuss ways in which you can accomplish both of these goals.

Steps

Lose Fat

1
Do cardio workouts. Important step to get six pack abs: There is no way to target fat loss in any area of your body. You need to lose some of that extra fat over your abs. Even if you workout and get gigantic ab muscles, if there is still a layer of fat over them no one will ever get to see them. Cardio workouts are workouts that raise your heart rate for a given set of time. Some examples would be running, jogging, bike riding, dancing and rowing.

2
Eat smaller dinners. Large dinners tend to hurt a fat loss process because most people aren't very active after dinner. This is the basis for advice along the lines of "don't eat anything within a certain number of hours before going to bed". The claim that your entire dinner is stored as fat isn't entirely true. The process is more complicated than that, but the fact you don't move after dinner is enough to hurt your cause. You can offset this by eating a larger lunch or snacking healthily before dinner. Fresh fruits or vegetables are excellent choices for curbing appetite not to mention other health benefits. A handful of nuts might do the same. Drink a large glass of water before sitting at the table.
3
Eat breakfast. Many people skip breakfast because they don't have time for it. The harm of skipping breakfast from a weight loss perspective is it makes you eat a huge lunch since your body hasn't had anything in the past 12 (or more) hours. When you eat a huge lunch you get that after meal drowsiness so now you're both unproductive and inactive. Cerealsdon't take much time to prepare and consume, and most of them are very healthy nowadays. If you are extremely pressed for time, consider grabbing a box of breakfast bars or a smoothie and throwing one in your bag when you leave for work or school. Somebreakfast bars out there are also excellent sources of fiber. Even an apple or a yogurt is better than nothing. Ideally, your breakfast should be the biggest meal of the day, lunch the second, and dinner the smallest.
4
Lift weights.
Lift weights. The more muscle your body has, the more calories your body burns, even at rest. Plus, resistance training is important to limit the amount of muscle mass lost whilst reducing your calorie intake. If you only do cardiovascular exercises (running, playing basketball, football) without weight training then you may lose the muscle mass, including the muscle in your abs.
5
Keep metabolism steady. Eating one small meal every three hours that you are awake will not speed up your metabolism, rather, it will keep it going. Your metabolism goes and slows with your food intake and eating something small every three hours will keep that metabolism burning calories and will help you lose weight. Every meal should include lean protein, so that your body won't need to break down your muscles for fuel, which would shrink your abs as well as slow down your metabolism.
6
Drink more water every day.
Drink more water every day. To find out how much water you need to drink as a minimum per day, halve your weight (in pounds) and that is how many ounces of water you need to drink. So a 150lb person would need to drink a minimum of 2.2 liters a day. It sounds like an absurd amount of water, but you get water from the food you eat, and you can drink teas and pure fruit juices to make up some of the quota.
- Drinking too much water (several liters, especially while sweating) can dangerously dilute certain salts and minerals. If you are exercising heavily and sweating a lot, you will need to replace your salts as well as fluids. Supplement your water drinking with a sports drink or potassium rich fruits such as bananas and apples.
7
Whole grain pasta salad
Switch out refined grains for whole grains. In a scientific study, people who ate all whole grains (in addition to five servings of fruits and vegetables, three servings of low-fat dairy, and two servings of lean meat, fish, or poultry) lost more belly fat than another group that ate the same diet, but with all refined grains. A diet rich in whole grains changes the glucose and insulin response in your body, which hastens the melting of fat, and visceral fat, that deep layer of fat, is easier for your body to burn than the subcutaneous fat under your skin (the fat that you can see and grab).^[1]

Build Muscle

1
Do crunches.
Do crunches. Lie on the floor (with or without a mat) with your arms in front of your chest or with your hands lightly touching your temples (never behind your head). Bend your knees. Raise your shoulders (upper torso) towards your knees, using strictly your abdominal muscles. It is very important to not lift your entire back off the floor, as this can cause back strain, and the extended movement does not help you develop six pack abs any faster. The most important part of the crunch is the initial flexing of your abs as you lift your shoulders off the floor. As soon as you begin lifting off the floor exhale through your mouth, ending with a gasp once your shoulders are off the floor. Then pause for a second once you are at the top of the crunch and exhale the last bit of air from your diaphragm while flexing your abs. Now lower back down slowly and controlled while inhaling through your nose, just until your shoulder blades touch the ground. Do not let your head touch the ground.
2
Decline barbell sit ups (advanced)
Do sit ups. Lie on the floor, feet on the floor, knees up and hands crossed on your chest. Have someone hold your feet down, or wedge them underneath something heavy. Sit all the way up, lifting your lower back off the floor along with your shoulder blades. Keep your back straight (no hunching). Lower yourself down. Repeat. Once this becomes relatively easy for you (i.e. you can do a quite a bit with ease) start adding more challenges. Find an incline bench. Do weighted sit ups. Hold a weight on your chest while you do these. As these become easier, hold heavier and heavier weights.
3
Train your entire core.
Train your entire core. To build really great abs it's important to first understand what abs do. Their full name is 'rectus abdominis'. The 'rectus' bit, is Latin for 'straight, proper, upright'. Contrary to popular opinion, the abs' primary job is not to curl you up into a ball, but they work together with the back muscles to maintain correct posture and stabilize the spine. These muscles are not just for show! So the best exercises for abs are ones that force your entire core to go into overdrive to support your spine. Some exercises that do this are squats and deadlifts. These exercises will train your entire core to work together to do what it is designed to do. At the same time they will also train a lot of other muscles (e.g. glutes and quads).
4
Do leg lifts.
Do leg lifts. Lie on the floor, legs straight out, hands at your sides. Lift your legs straight up (not bending your knees at all) until they're at a 90 degree angle (or close). Lower your legs and repeat without letting your legs touch the floor. For more challenge there is equipment at most gyms that will allow you to raise yourself up using your arms as support and dangle your legs. If you're using this piece of equipment, you can make it easier by just raising your knees to your chest. It's more difficult to raise your legs to a horizontal position with your legs straight. This helps firm up the lower abdomen. If you're truly a monster, try doing leg lifts with a medicine ball hanging from your feet. Or, hang from a pull up bar and raise your legs in front of you all the way up to the bar.
5
Do jackknife sit ups. Lie down flat on the floor. Place your hands on the ground to your sides for balance; you can pick them up as you get used to the movement. Simultaneously raise your knees and torso so that your knees and face meet on an imaginary line extending from your pelvis to the ceiling. You should be able to Kiss your knees at the top of the motion. Your legs will naturally fold bringing your feet towards your hips, much like a jackknife. Lie back down (i.e. "spread out") and repeat. Place a weight between your feet when you think you can handle it.
6
Do static holds.
Do static holds. Put your body into the push-up position but with your elbows on the floor, and your whole body flat. This position is known as the static hold position, or the plank, and it trains your core (including your abs) to hold the body in place which is the real purpose of your abs. Hold this position for as long as possible. Beginners should be aiming to start off with at least 45 seconds, while seasoned ab workers are known to achieve over 5 minute static holds. To perform the side static hold, roll onto one side of your body and lift into the same position as before, but this time only one arm will be on the ground with the other arm pointed straight up the air and your non weight bearing leg resting on your bottom leg. Once again, hold this for as long as possible.
7
Train your oblique muscles. It's not as important to work on your oblique muscles at first, but eventually you'll want to start working these too. These are the muscles to either side of your stomach. There are multiple ways to do this and anything that includes twisting your torso against a resistance counts. There are twisting machines at gyms, you can twist while you do sit-ups, you can do side bends, you can twist side to side with a medicine ball in hand, etc. Be aware though, that many beginners tend to have weak obliques compared to their abs (it simply isn't used as much in daily life) so go easy on the sides at first.
- Do bicycle crunches. Lift your feet off the ground while doing the crunches by alternating each leg in the air. Bring your left knee up toward your right shoulder and then your right knee toward your left shoulder.
8
Find new ways to crunch, bend and twist in your daily life. Some possibilities include:

Use a stability ball.
Use a stability ball. Do your crunches on the ball to introduce instability to your workout, which will improve your balance too. There are also lots of core exercises that can be done with a stability ball. You can also use a small bubble used for physical therapy.
Duck and twist during your daily routine. Reach with your left hand to things on your right and vice versa. If you feel like turning around to face something, see if you can do it with keeping your hips in place and twisting at the waist. (This is awkward when talking to other people, use only against inanimate objects.) While walking or standing, pretend that something is coming toward you and you have to duck to get out of the way. Do this as often as you are comfortable or at times when it won't look weird. You can bend forward from the hips or, if you're really into it, bend at the knees too and really "sink" out of the way.
Add complex core-movements to your workout. That will boost your overall body constitution tremendously. For example, combine push-ups with rows. Go into a push-up position on two dumbbells. Now don't do a push-up, but instead start to row alternating dumbbells. See how much power you need only to hold balance? Combine exercises! Be creative. Tension is your friend.

Lean protein

2011-10-01T12:53:00.001+02:00

Lean protein is an important part of any healthy diet and can help you with your weight-loss efforts. Lean protein provides you with a sense of satiety (fullness) and can help prevent overeating. Here are some pointers for selecting good sources of lean protein:

Fish

Fish is one of the healthiest sources of lean protein. It is nautrally lower in saturated fat than poultry or beef. Coldwater fish, such as salmon, is an excellent choice as it contains high amounts ofomega-3 fatty acids, a "good" fat that can be beneficial to your health.

Chicken and Turkey

Poultry is a good source of protein -- just choose white meat turkey and chicken as often as possible; it is lower in calories than dark meat. Be sure to remove the skin before eating. Ideal preparation methods include roasting, grilling, and baking.

Beef

Watching your fat and calorie-intake doesn't mean you have to give up beef. Choose cuts with the words "round" or "loin" in the name, and those that have less visible marbling. Trim any visible fatbefore you cook it or ask the butcher to do so before wrapping it up. When choosing ground beef, look for "lean" or "extra lean" on the label.

Eggs

Despite getting a bad reputation a few years back due to cholesterol concerns, eggs truly can be part of any healthy diet. Eggs provide around five grams of protein per serving. They are the mostbudget-friendly protein source, at less than $2 a dozen. They are easy to prepare, and can be used creatively in many different ways, from breakfast, to sandwiches, to heartier dishes such as fritatta or quiches. If you are concerned about cholesterol, just use fewer yolks (the fat and cholesterol is in the yolk). Tip: I like making scrambled eggs with one whole egg and two whites.

Low-Fat Dairy

Low-fat dairy products are an ideal source of lean protein because much of the saturated fat has been removed from them. They provide vitamin D and calcium (which may help you lose weight). Low-fat cheese, milk and yogurt are staples of a healthy diet as they can be worked into almost any meal or as a part of healthy snacks.

Beans, Peas and Lentils

Beans, peas, and lentils are also good lean protein sources, particularly for those who follow a vegetarian diet. They provide plenty of fiber, which most of us need to increase in our diets. The protein and fiber pack a "one-two punch" that can help you feel fuller much longer than other foods and thereby prevent overeating. Try adding them to other recipes such as chili, soup, or evensalads, and gradually increase your serving size or frequency to avoid gastric woes. (Adding too much fiber to your diet at once can cause gas and cramps.)

XII. Raspunsuri la cateva intrebari frecvente

1. Este obligatorie dobandirea personalitatii juridice pentru ca o ONG sa existe?

Conform cu art. 5, alin. 2 din OG nr. 26/2000 cu modificarile ulterioare, in temeiul dreptului constitutional la asociere prevazut de art. 40 al Constitutiei Romaniei, persoanele fizice se pot asocia si fara a constitui o persoana juridica, "atunci cand realizarea scopului propus permite aceasta". Insa asocierea fara personalitate juridica nu poate beneficia de fonduri (donatii, sponsorizari) si nu poate desfasura activitati de autofinantare.

2. Pot primi un sediu pentru organizatie, de la Primaria orasului?

Teoretic da, insa nu va puneti prea mari sperante. Nu exista o prevedere legala care sa impuna o asemenea obligatie autoritatilor locale, ci doar recomandarea de "punerea la dispozitie, in functie de posibilitati, a unor spatii pentru sedii, in conditiile legii". Pentru amanunte vedeti cap. VII din Legea nr. 246/2005 (vezi cap. XIV, "Legislatie utila" din ghid).

Daca ati reusit sa faceti rost de un astfel de sediu, in ce priveste cuantumul chiriei, acesta ramane sa fie decis de consiliul local.

3. Vreau sa stabilesc sediul social in apartamentul meu/al parintilor mei/al unor prieteni, dar acesta este ipotecat bancii.

Pare cea mai la indemana rezolvare, insa daca apartamentul este inca sub ipoteca, lucrurile se complica. In aceasta situatie trebuie sa obtineti acordul bancii, care va poate refuza; daca accepta totusi, contractul de comodat va trebui sa prevada o chirie care sa se plateasca tot bancii... Nu apelati la aceasta solutie decat daca nu aveti alta.

4. Care este varsta minima pentru infiintarea unui ONG, pentru a face parte din comitetul de conducere al unui ONG sau pentru a fi membru intr-un ONG?

Legea 246/2005 nu da nici un indiciu privind varsta minima pentru calitatea de membru simplu, fondator sau membru in Consiliul Director, asadar se aplica prevederile generale ale dreptului civil.

Intrucat aderarea la o organizatie non-profit poate implica responsabilitatea juridica, civila, penala, este necesara existenta capacitatii de exercitiu a drepturilor civile, care apare o data cu implinirea varstei de 14 ani. Asadar minorii sub 14 ani nu pot fi membri intr-un ONG si nici fondatori de asociatii si fundatii; minorii intre 14 si 18 ani pot fi membri simpli sau fondatori ai unor asociatii si fundatii numai cu acordul reprezentantilor lor legali (parinti, tutore, etc.) care le dau acordul scris in acest sens.

Implinirea varstei de 18 ani atrage deplina capacitate de exercitiu si deci persoanele care au 18 ani impliniti isi pot exercita liber drepturile privind fondarea unui ONG, dreptul la alegere (dreptul de vot) si dreptul de a fi ales. Interdictia exercitarii calitatii de membru (simplu sau fondator) al unei asociatii/fundatii apare doar in cazul persoanelor peste 18 ani care nu sunt titulare de drepturi subiective si obligatii civile (au interdictie judecatoreasca de exercitare a unor drepturi in urma unei condamnari definitive)

In acelasi timp, minorii nu pot fi alesi in organe de conducere si control, nici numiti in functii in care ar avea putere de decizie si raspunderi materiale cu implicatii juridice, pentru ca nu au capacitate deplina de exercitiu si, deci, fara acordul reprezentantilor legali nu pot semna, decide, etc. Eventual minorii de peste 16 ani ar putea avea functii / roluri de raspundere comparabile cu cele ale unui salariat pentru ca legislatia le recunoaste de la 16 ani anumite drepturi de exercitiu in materie de incheiere de contracte de munca si alte asemenea si, deci, prin asimilare, s-ar putea pune problema in mod similar si in ceea ce priveste asocierea lor la o organizatie neguvernamentala. (aid-ong.ro).

5. Ce este cenzorul? Este obligatorie numirea unui cenzor al unei organizatii nonprofit?

Cenzorul controleaza din punct de vedere financiar activitatea oricarei persoane juridice. El trebuie sa fie expert contabil, si, evident nu poate fi acelasi cu contabilul organizatiei. Este obligatoriu sa numiti (si sa mentionati acest lucru in statut), un cenzor, doar daca organizatia are mai mult de 15 asociati. Daca numarul asociatilor este mai mare de 100, trebuie numita o comisie de cenzori, dintre care cel putin unul sa fie contabil autorizat sau expert contabil.

6. Nu cunoastem nici un cenzor, dar avem nevoie de unul.

Contactati CECCAR (Corpul Expertilor Contabili si Contabililor Autorizati din Romania), incercati prin rubricile de mica publicitate sau, pur si simplu, cereti recomandarea altor organizatii.

7. Cu ce frecventa trebuie intocmit raportul cenzorului?

Raportul cenzorului este obligatoriu o data pe an si trebuie incheiat inaintea depunerii bilantului anual.

8. Cenzorul trebuie obligatoriu sa fie platit pentru activitatea sa?

Nu, poate sa lucreze si benevol/voluntar. (www.aid-ong.ro)

9. Cum imi platesc contabilul? In cazul in care si cenzorul trebuie platit, cum se va face plata?

Se vor incheia contracte de prestari servicii; intrebati-va contabilul, asta este treaba lui.

10. Ministerul Finantelor obliga organizatiile sa inscrie codul CAEN in formularul anual de bilant. Unde pot incadra, in codul CAEN, activitatea asociatiei noastre?

In structura noului cod CAEN (CAEN Rev. 2, intrat in vigoare de la 01.01.2008), distinctia dintre scop comercial sau necomercial (market si nonmarket) nu reprezinta un considerent. Desi exista unele clase care in mod normal sunt nonmarket, pot exista altele cateva care sunt de obicei efectuate atat de societati comerciale, cat si de ong-uri.

In functie de activitatea predominanta va puteti inscrie asociatia la urmatoarele pozitii (nu exclusiv la acestea):

- 8560 Activitati de servicii suport pentru invatamant
- 8790 Activitati de asistenta sociala, cu cazare
- 8899 Alte activitati de asistenta sociala, fara cazare
- 9003 Activitati de creatie artistica
- 9319 Alte activitati sportive
- 9411 Activitati ale organizatiilor economice si patronale
- 9411 Activitati ale organizatiilor profesionale
- 9420/ Activitati ale sindicatelor salariatilor
- 9491/ Activitati ale organizatiilor religioase
- 9492/ Activitati ale organizatiilor politice
- 9499/ Alte activitati asociative n.c.a.

Puteti consulta noul cod CAEN la http://www.cod-caen.eu/

De obicei insa, aceasta este treaba contabilului/directorului economic si nu a asociatilor. Oricum, contabilul trebuie sa citeasca si el Statutul/Actul constitutiv inainte de a semna contractul de colaborare si va inscrie el codul CAEN pentru activitatea predominanta.

11. Cum putem modifica statutul organizatiei noastre?

a) Odata centralizate, propunerile de modificare a statutului sunt remise pentru verificare unui notar public sau avocat (pentru ca sa nu aiba vreun viciu juridic).
b) Convocati, in conformitate cu prevederile statutului in vigoare, Adunarea Generala (pentru cazul unei asociatii) sau reuniunea Consiliului Director (daca aveti o fundatie), avand pe ordinea de zi modificarea statutului. Aveti grija sa trimiteti din timp propunerile de modificare, spre a fi luate la cunostinta, tuturor participantilor.
c) Dupa desfasurarea sedintei si aprobarea noului statut, procesul-verbal de sedinta trebuie semnat de catre participanti (in minim 3 exemplare). Mentionati in procesul-verbal al Adunarii o persoana din conducere va fi imputernicita cu derularea formalitatilor pentru modificarea statutului (altfel, va trebui ca toti membrii conducerii sa mearga in persoana la notar pentru autentificarea actelor).
d) Mergeti la notar pentru autentificarea noului statut (minim 3 exemplare); tot atunci se va autentifica si procesul-verbal al sedintei.
e) Platiti la trezorerie, in contul bugetului de stat, taxa de timbru. Pastrati o copie a chitantei pentru contabilitate - originalul se depune la dosar la judecatorie.
f) Depuneti la Judecatoria pe raza careia se afla sediul un dosar care contine:

- statutul nou, autentificat (3 exemplare originale)
- procesul-verbal, autentificat, al sedintei in cadrul careia s-a aprobat modificarea statutului (3 exemplare originale)
- chitanta doveditoare a platii taxei de timbru
- un timbr judiciar
- vechiul statut, copie
- sentinta judecatoreasca prin care fusese aprobat vechiul statut
- cerere-tip completata si semnata in fata judecatorului de serviciu de catre persoana imputernicita prin procesul-verbal sa indeplineasca formalitatile de modificare a statutului (luati formularul de la registratura judecatoriei). Judecatorul de serviciu verifica si semneaza dosarul, cu care mergeti la registratura, unde primiti un numar de inregistrare. Judecatoria se pronunta in termen de 5 zile asupra cererii, fara citarea partilor.

g) Dupa circa 1-2 saptamani (atat dureaza transcrierea), se ridica de la Judecatorie "incheierea civila" (sentinta judecatoreasca) si cate un exemplar din procesul-verbal al sedintei si din noul statut.

12. Doresc ca realizez proiecte de sprijinire a societatii civile, avem ideile, dar nu suntem in nici o organizatie pe care sa o reprezentam. Intrebarea mea este ce inseamna un grup informal, cum se contituie el, care este reglemenatrea legala in acest domeniu si daca el poate fi format in cadrul unei facultati?

"Grupul informal" se numeste asa tocmai pentru ca nu este alcatuit pe baza unor reglementari stricte, legale, ci mai ales pe baza unor activitati si afinitati comune, printr-o intelegere verbala - si aici aveti libertate deplina. Sigur ca il puteti forma si in facultate.
Insa, asa cum am scris si in ghidul nostru, sunt actiuni care nu se pot face decat intr-un cadru institutional, asa ca va recomand sa luati in considerare si constituirea unui ONG.

Extemporaneous Speech Topics

2011-06-28T15:07:00.001+02:00

Extemporaneous speech topics tutorial including extemporaneous preparation in 3 steps and 14 examples. Prepare speech topics quick and properly in a minimum of preparation time for school and college assigments, tournaments or business public speaking occasions.

The goal of extemporaneous speaking - also called Extemp - is to persuade or inform an audience briefly. This is the common general definition of extemporaneous speaking. If you are asking yourself: What should I do in the extemp speech? Then keep this rule of thumb in mind: the speech must answer the question in a school assignment or tournament. Simple and easy. The best extemporaneous speaker can speak almost without any notes. But don't do that if you feel not confident enough.

There are three types of extemporaneous speeches:

High School And College Assignments - Always do what your teacher asks you to do! Often you have to pick out topics in the form of informative, analytical, international, domestic or economic questions about current events. Your extemporaneous speech topics should answer the question exactly. Check if some written notes are permitted in class room extemps.
Tournaments - An event where speakers receive their topics in the form of questions. Check the tournament entry to see which format and which rules will be used. Successful extempers don't use cards. However, if you are allowed to use notes, then use a card for each element in the form below. Just use keywords.
Business Presentations - Considered as difficult by those who must give presentations in business. Here I limit myself to extemporaneous speech topics for school, college and tournaments.

Extemporaneous Speech Preparation In 3 Steps

These three steps for preparing extemporaneous speech topics will help you to do what you have to do: answering the question in case of school assignments or tournaments.

The First Step - Analyze what extemporaneous question you have to answer:

Questions of fact. Characterized by is and are, or will or would.
Questions of value. Characterized by should.
Questions of policy. Characterized by can and could. Often used for an political speech topic.

The Second Step - Determine if the extemporaneous speech topic is informative or persuasive. The words what, which and who indicate that it is an informative issue. The words should and why indicate that it is a persuasive issue.

The Third Step - Always stay with your extemp subject. In other words: never change the extemporaneous speech topics. Now, organize your ideas and points effectively. You can use the speech topics outline below. Focus on your speech topic and think about the various angles. Now write those first thoughts quickly down. Catch them in keywords.

Is There A Best Outline For Extemporaneous Speeches?

No. The best outline doesn't exist. The pattern above is just a method to organize extemporaneous topics quick and efficient.

Extemporaneous Speech Topics: Open Or Closed Questions?

Mostly there are two types of questions, open and closed. Determine what type of extemporaneous speech topics you are answering.

Closed Questions - You can only state a clear Yes or No in your introduction. In the points of the body part you offer the arguments.

Example: Is Disclosure A Bad Movie? Yes, you can also choose for humorous extemporaneous speech topics.

Open Questions - State how or what will, should or can be done in your introduction. Then guide the audience to the answer in logical steps. Those steps are the major points in your extemporaneous speech.

Example: What Can We Do Against Corrupt Politicians?

How To Deliver Extemporaneous Speech Topics

Time Management - The right time management is crucial. Put a watch in front of you. If you have 30 minutes to prepare an extemporaneous speech topic, then divide that time in parts. Below are three examples of time management. Find out which one is the best for you. If you are allowed to use note cards, then the memorize part can be shorter in time, of course.

RESEARCH

WRITE

REFLECT AND MEMORIZE

PRACTICE AND POLISH

More about practicing extemporaneous speech topics - Visualize the flow of your speech in your mind. Something like this: first I want to state this, and then I prove it by that. And so on. Learn the sequence by heart. If there’s a possibility to practice in front of a friend or classmate, then do it! And listen to their comment. Elaborate on it. Another idea is to tape yourself on audio or video. Listen and look if you are making logical steps, transitions and pauses. Another possibility is to practice out loud in front of a mirror.

Delivery - Don’t be boring, add some funny extemporaneous speech topics in your presentation. Talk easy and in a normal tempo, don’t talk to fast. Don’t speech like a talking puppet in a suit. Move a little bit, use the proper gestures to emphasize your main points.

Find Extemporaneous Speech Topics For Extemp Tubs

Many extemporaneous competitors spend hours a week to prepare files with noteworthy articles about every possible subject. They can use these so-called Extemp Tubs in tournaments. But how does a speaker fill these files with the best extemporaneous speech topics? Here are my Six Golden Tips:

1. Analyze and study current events in magazines and newspapers. Sort out the headlines, the pros and cons, reasons, statistics and sources.

2. Research extemporaneous speech topics on the Internet. Pay special attention to quotes and reports of scientific researchers. Don’t forget to find humorous quotes, to break the ice.

3. Watch interesting television documentaries and note the facts and conclusions.

4. Ask experienced competitors how they prepare themselves. Look how they practice and perform.

5. Organize and update your files in a way you can find your extemporaneous speech topics quick and easy. For instance, organize your plastic tub like a tree – four or five general extemporaneous speech topics in hanging folders. And place within those general speech topics lots of sub-topics categorized from A to Z.

6. Also use a reference book, a dictionary, a small encyclopedia, etc.

By now, you have learned how to prepare and outline your extemporaneous speech topics.

1. „Picioarele, de-aici pana aici” mi-a raspuns dezinvolt o candidata pentru un post de Financial Controller, aratandu-mi zona dintre glezne si genunchi. Aproape m-am blocat, incercand sa reconciliez mental spontaneitatea raspunsului cu naivitatea lui aparenta. Ca sa ma reculeg, m-am uitat, relaxandu-ma in fotoliu. Erau asezate unul peste altul, comod, fara a fi provocatoare. Erau, intr-adevar, frumoase. Subtiri si lungi, fara rabat la forma pe care am fost invatati s-o admiram. Dincolo de genunchi nu se vedeau, fiind acoperite, decent, de rochie. Mi-am intins pe fata, ca pe un serbet, zambetul profesional si-am scris pe notepad „legs!!!”

2. „Nu pot face astfel de aprecieri. Ii las pe altii sa decida. Oricum, va pot asigura ca pana acum mi-am indeplinit si depasit mereu target-urile de vanzari, iar motivul pentru care caut acum un alt job este legat exclusiv de restrangerea activitatii companiei pentru care am lucrat.” Asa suna raspunsul sobru primit de la un candidat si mai sobru, ce viza un job de Account Manager. I-am privit, si lui, picioarele. Pantaloni bine calcati la dunga, pantofi oglinda cu sireturi ceruite. I-am aruncat si lui serbetul de control. Si am notat in carnetel. Nu „legs”, fireste. Am desenat doar un patrat.

Sigur, fara sa vrem, suntem tentati sa comparam cele doua raspunsuri. M-am oprit la timp sa dau si-alte exemple ce mi se-nvalmaseau in minte, din trecute interviuri: „faptul ca nu ma las usor pacalita”, „incapatanarea in a-mi atinge obiectivele”, „spiritul de echipa”, „faptul ca reusesc mereu sa-mpac pe toata lumea”, sau, mai generic si mai imprecis, „felul meu de-a fi”.

V-as propune in schimb sa ne oprim si sa analizam putin rolul unei astfel de intrebari, in cadrul unui interviu de recrutare. Neatenti, tindem, de multe ori, atunci cand suntem asezati nu foarte comod pe fotoliul de candidat, sa o asimilam cu clasica porunca: „Enumerati trei calitati care va recomanda pentru acest job!” Si ne-apucam sa turuim, privind in jos timid, mimand o falsa modestie, din capul listei pregatite-n amanunt acasa.

Ei bine, NU! Multe raspunsuri de-acest fel au fost, din partea mea, urmate de o noua intrebare: „Si dac-ar fi sa-ncerci un raspuns punctual la intrebarea precedenta, care-ar fi acela?” Fireste, cu serbetul afisat pe „wide”. Pentru ca nu asta-ncerc sa aflu. Reformulata explicit, intrebarea din titlu ar suna cam asa: „Dintre calitatile pe care le ai si de care esti constient, care este aceea de care te bucuri cel mai tare?” Ei, nici asa nu scap foarte usor. „Fizice sau psihice?” primesc rapid retur. „Cea care-ti vine mai intai in minte” precizez. Si, in sfarsit, suntem pe drumul cel bun!

Scobesc, de fapt, prin astfel de-ntrebari, dupa ceva numit asa de bine in engleza: „self-confidence”, „self-awareness”, „self-esteem”. Acel „self” pe care, la un interviu, suntem nejustificat tentati sa-l deghizam in niste haine de carton: profesionalism, hotarare (unii spun, mai nou, determinare), spirit de echipa, si alte sabloane de-acest fel care, am citit noi undeva, dau bine. Acel „self” bine definit, cu forma lui neregulata, e cel pe care un angajator sau recrutor profesionist cauta sa-l integreze, pentru a aduce plusvaloare, in organizatie.

Stiu, o sa-mi spuneti ca nu-i chiar asa, ca interviurile la care-ati participat au fost pline de intrebari stas, legate numai de CV si ca tot ce-a contat au fost pretentiile voastre salariale. Sau ca si domnisoara de la nr. 1 si domnul de la nr. 2 au dat raspunsuri extreme. Si, ca sa va-nchid gura (glumesc, desigur, astept cu bucurie comentarii), am sa enumar doar cateva atribute:

- spontaneitate. Nu stati prea mult pe ganduri. Nu faceti mental clasamente ca sa vedeti care calitate-i mai dihai. Sau care e mai relevanta pentru cel/cea din fata voastra. De fapt (altfel o sa para ca ma contrazic mai jos), nu dati impresia ca faceti asta! „Extemporaneous talk” este ce-ar trebui sa iasa (dati „search” pe google dupa termen, sau aveti rabdare 2-3 saptamani, voi vorbi negresit despre asta)

- naturalete. Nu falsa modestie. Nici fals profesionalism. E vorba despre voi si despre felul cum va raportati la cel/cea din fata voastra. Tot astfel va veti raporta (va gandi intervievatorul sub serbet) la cei din organizatia in care doriti sa intrati.

- veridicitate. E bine sa va referiti la o calitate usor de demonstrat. Exemplul nr. 1 pare tentant dar, atentie, „Beauty is in the eye of the beholder”! Dati si exemple de situatii in care ati fructificat cu succes calitatea mentionata.

- relevanta. Da, calitatea despre care veti vorbi e bine sa fie consonanta cu „tema emisiunii”, cu jobul pentru care aplicati. Daca raspundeti „felul cum conduc masina” voi putea deduce ca nu sunteti la interviu pentru un job de Operator Facturare. Nici voi, nici domnisoara de mai sus (desi, cine stie?).

- precizie. Am explicat, cred, sensul intrebarii. Daca intervievatorul vostru va cere acelasi lucru, dati-i ce v-a cerut. Nu divagati. Veti avea, banuiesc, suficiente ocazii pe parcursul interviului sa marcati si alte puncte.

De buna seama, un interviu contine si intrebari stas. Si povestea CV-ului. Conteaza, neindoielnic, si pretentiile salariale. Dar, dincolo de asta, candidatul castigator vine si cu ceva in plus. Retine atentia intervievatorului cu ceva ce va face diferenta. Rasfoind, la sfarsitul zilei, agenda mea de interviu, mi-au sarit in ochi „legs!!!” si „□”. In dreptul vostru ce va scrie?

Worst Summer Movies 2011

2011-06-23T11:52:00.000+02:00

Columbia Pictures

Every summer there's a plethora of movies that come out. Some excite you (Rosie Huntington-Whiteley inTransformers, anyone?). Some excite her -- you know, the ones where you wonder how two former A. Listers (cough, Julia Roberts, cough, Tom Hanks, cough) could possible have read the script, thanked their agents and gladly accepted the roles. Alas, those are the exact films your girlfriend will be dragging you to. Accept it.

These 2011 summer movies are destined for epic failure, so consider this list a warning -- an opportunity for you to dip your feet in the shallow end so you won't be freaked out when you find yourself drowning in the deep end.

Larry Crowne

(Tom Hanks, Julia Roberts, Wilmer Valderrama)

Bad Teacher

acum am dat o cautare pe google si am obeservat ca sunt primul cand caut primus rex.. ft tare, nu ma asteptam la asta, nu acum cand eram convins ca sunt un om invizibil. In drumul catre casa, adica in maxim 10 minute a trebuit sa ma feresc de 4 co-participanti in trafic pietonal, o masina si cam atat, nivelul meu de a exagera se opreste aici, adevarul este ca si eu am ignorat un catelus care trecea un ditamai bulevardul in cautare de un stapan, a trecut cu bine, daca cineva isi pune intrebarea ast, dar adevarul este ca nici eu nu m-am uitat inapoi...

nu imi pun prea multe intrebari acum.. pentru ca am deja raspunsul in mine, le cunosc, stiu de basescu si de cainiii lui vagabonti, imi amintesc de oferta unui prieten de a-l scapa de cainii din spatele blocului( 50 ron- pt cei interesati), imi dau seama ca oamenii se grabesc acasa dupa o zi de munca....asa ca toate intrebarile au un raspuns, insa eu de ce sa fiu nevoit sa evit oameni care au o traiectorie vadita de coliziune cu mine? de ce nu sunt si eu pus pe pilot automat si sa fiu in stare sa nu ma intereseze nici ca unul se scobeste in nas ca altul gesticuleaza ca un nebun singur in masina, ca 3 golanasi stau pe locurile din spate are autobuzului ascultand manele la mobil...

ar trebui sa fiu si eu in lumea mea,,, si sunt..

If I were starting life over again, I am inclined to think that I would go into the advertising business in preference to almost any other.

Matches With Gemini

The following are sun sign comparisons for Gemini the Twins--how people born under a Gemini Sun get along with other signs of the zodiac. These interpretations are written with romantic relationships in mind and are from the Romantic Compatibility Report.

SUN GEMINI-ARIES

You both enjoy and need to be active and on the go, and are more interested in the present than in the past. Once something has outlived its usefulness, you are both ready to part with it and you go on to something new. You both have a low tolerance for boredom! You also share a weakness in common: the inability to stick with things (projects and relationships) when they become dull or problematic. Neither of you wants a very clingy, dependent type of partner, and with one another you have a certain amount of independence that you both enjoy.

Sometimes GEMINI wants to discuss an idea, while ARIES becomes impatient with the conversation, feeling that they are beating around the bush, and not really getting to the heart of the matter. ARIES becomes abrupt, impatient, and tactless at such times. GEMINI must realize that ARIES simply does not have a taste for conversation at such times, and must not rely too much on ARIES for daily conversation. Handled positively, GEMINI can provide lots of different perspectives on ARIES's impulsive ideas.
