Băsescu şi flota
Cred că ştiu ce a făcut Băsescu cu flota. A vândut-o la preţuri normale şi a băgat banii în corupţia din România băi frate şi cât a fost primar la Bucureşti şi-a construit în linişte viitorul de preşedinte. Nu vă speriaţi că am impresia că nu mai scăpaţi vreodată de el şi de ai lui. You can't escape the başçavuş escu.
Români, vi s-a pregătit ceva...
Picture this. Your relative is calling you on the phone from thousands of miles, several phone companies, thousands of fiber optics repeaters, one cell phone tower away. One hand on the TV remote and the other on the phone. Which do you press first? Would you give up a few minutes of hot debate on TV about the latest models' scandals, pseudo news or sugary soaps, or let your relative hear them in the background, after all it's them who are calling, bothering us with their home sickness and strange ideas about normality, make them feel closer to what's like to be home.
Imaginaţi-vă. O rudă vă sună la telefon de la o distanţă de mii de km, câteva firme telefonice, mii de repetitoare de fibră optică şi un turn de celulare. Cu o mână pe telefon şi una pe telecomandă. Pe care să alegi? Ai renunţa la câteva minute de dezbatere aprinsă la TV despre ultimele scandaluri ale vreunei modele, pseudo-ştiri sau telenovele siropoase sau îl laşi şi pe ruda ta să le asculte în background, doar ei sunt cei care sună, deranjându-ne cu dorul lor de casă şi idei ciudate despre normalitate, să-i facem astfel să se simtă mai aproape de cum e să fii acasă.

χάρισμα
χάρισμα - "favor freely given" or "gift of grace."
It is the unconscious power that one has over somebody else's will. There is submitting charisma and submissive charisma.
It comes from the facial features. Any facial feature that is slightly exaggerated or asymmetrical, thus being perceived by the observer as viewed from an angle, usually from below.
A big chin is one of the first qualities that gives the perception of viewing a face from below. A child being held is having a point of view that gives the impression of a bigger chin of a person that is otherwise "normal".
A mustache gives the impression of a bigger chin by fooling the perception into thinking the mouth is higher on the face. A beard actually enlarges the viewing perception of the chin. An asymmetrical eye or eyebrow and a big chin gives the impression of viewing the face from an angle below.
All of the above gives the charismatic person the power of the mother that holds her child from the mere fact that some facial features of the charismatic leader are perceived as seen from the position of the child being held.
It also comes from attitude. A calm and reassuring attitude is the second condition of the charismatic "leader". I put here the word leader between quotes because a charismatic person needs more qualities to be a leader.
There are many people whose charismattic qualities are nullified by the lack of reassuring attitude.
This is also obvious if we refer to the same proposed theory, of the submission of a person by seeing a face as a child being held by mother.
But most of the charismatic people realize sometimes in life that he/her posses this quality and fall into the temptation of using and end up depending on it.
When people with little education try and exercise their charismatic qualities over those with more education sometimes are being rejected by the failed subjects and often labeled as trying to patronize or having a patronizing attitude.
The opposite is also true, men looking for women prefer a smaller chin or elevated eyebrows as a person would appear to have if seen from above.
Usually what happens nowadays, innate charismatic persons are being hired by others, usually becoming "politicians" with the only purpose of projecting an image of a leader and news breaker to the submitted crowds. (There is an interesting discussion here, as real politicians could be in fact all hired charismatic persons, and in rarer instances they might have learned to use their charisma for themselves)
I put the picture below as an example as i wrote this with this face in my mind. I read so many negative articles about this gentleman that is impossible for me not believe that his sole quality for the proposed function is charisma.
