7:20 AM


10:40 N-aș vrea să vă distrag atenția de la cele ce se întâmplă acum sau să vă mai sâcâi cu prostiile mele, dar trebuie să amintesc un lucru.

Până în 1999 Tratatul UE și Tratatul Schengen au fost două tratate paralele. Adică puteai să fii parte din Schengen și nu erai în UE sau invers. În 1999 Tratatul Schengen  în urma Tratatului de la Amsterdam (semnat 1997) a devenit parte integrantă din Tratatul de Aderare la UE. 

Adică încpând de atunci, orice țară care semna aderarea la UE devenea automat membru Schengen. Motivul principal a fost simplificarea aderărilor care aveau să urmeze, în numră de 10.

România a semnat Tratatul de Aderare în 2005 și după aprobarea tuturor țărilor membre, de obicei prin ratificare în parlamente, a devenit membru UE la 1 ianuarie 2007. Unul din efectele imediate simțite de români a fost intrarea în UE numai cu buletinul, care confirmă intrarea României simultan in UE și Schengen.

Singura restricție care a rămas a fost controlul la granița terestră cu Ungaria, iar toți politicienii români și din UE au menținut că România încă nu este membru Schengen, deși acel tratat a dispărut din 1999 și a rămas ca un capitol al Tratatului de Aderare, numit aquis-ul Schengen.

După ce am insistat cu niște postări, în sfârșit s-a recunoscut că România "este în Schengen", printr-o decizie ne-legislativă (fără efect juridic) a Consiliului, după 17 ani de umilire din partea Ungariei și încă niște bâlbăieli generatoare de confuzie.

Poate așa vă veți da seama de dimensiunea farsei în care trăim.

11:25 Kamiarizuki. Google doodle.

10:50 Non antagonistic contradictions.

2:07 There can be no economical reaons for market's volatility this week. Mega speculations are rarely economy related, though they can create real problems, see historical bubbles. They usually are fed by rumors and scandals.

After an 8% raise in the last couple of days due to a speach, Nvidia today is 2% down after yet another surprise investment in Nokia which is 22% up. Most of the 7 Magnificent are messed up exept for the two Alphabets. Meta is down 11%. How speculations can influence the assets (ok maybe if you own (your own) stocks and count them as assets). 

9:15 Hallowed be thy name. Why not Holly be thy Name?

What a lineup. Dickinson, Willcock, Di Anno, am i forgeting? Bayley, Day.

6:18 Simpatiile lui Trump. Departamentul de Război. România are probleme. Secretarul General al NATO vine în România. Gigi Becali a donat 2 milioane. Ioana Gheorghe. 

Yeak i know. Americans think it's a British accent, British think... whatever,... But can you understand what he's saying?

8:18 Nvidia market cap passes 5 trillion. How come it does not have two different share classes, like Alphabet. Voting, what? Jenseng is there to stay.

October 28

12:33 PM Again a few of the giants with enormous market cap drag the market up today. Wondering if we could eliminate those from the index, how the rest up to 500 of S&P 500 would look.

12:44 Jinsei is the name of the Japanese man upstairs.

12:55 What is total market capitalization of the two shares classes of Alphabet?

1:15 Ironic how it may sound, iron is a heavy metal.

1:22 Anca Alexandrescu. Never trust politicians with double initials.

1:30 Tipa asta dacă ar avea ochii verzi ar semăna perfect cu Ana Lesko.

6:25 It took me like three hours but i fixed it. First i took it apart and looked to see if i can tigthen/move/slide  the hinges to reduce gaps and and play at the door, apparent when pushing it at corners. I did a little with no effect. Then i got kinda desperate, thinkin i will probably have to return it (enough leakage to cause pain (to me) at several meters).

Then i had this idea and covered the door with aluminum foil. No need to see how it's cooking. I saw the signal at 2 meters went a little down. Then i had one more idea and covered the side grill and then the signal got cut more than  half. Then i covered the rear grill and the signal got close to nothing.

7:00 It was working fine. Then i removed that wrinkled aluminum foil i put on a side to put a better one and then someone climbed upstairs and now again get very high readings.

11:35 I believe you could accomodate a number of people in some of those containers for 2-3 weeks.

Provided they have cranes, they could drop them near shore and then sink them and the people would come ashore on small inflatable boats. But it would need to be done with knowledge of high level politicians...

Could this have anything to do with... 

12:27 They have to show up fully dressed of course. They have to undergo a training which may include basic language (Spanish) and lessons how to dress, walk and act (body language). Japanese people walk differently from European or American.

Cum să creezi panică în București în mai mulți pași simpli. Mai întâi, arunci în aer un bloc în Rahova. Apoi altul în Bistrița (pentru că sună cumva ca București). Mai zvonești. Pui un filmuleț cu un tunel detonat, lângă o alertă în capitală ca să vadă lumea cum arată.  
1:30 PM Legends die hard. After i said we really they did not maintain the illusion Trump is rich (and thus patriot) after the second elections, he indirectly announced his third candiature. 

Aso because i did not have time during the weekend to continue the project of assessing Trump's real fortune. Today i did one more step seaching for Trump Tower in New York. Several others came up. There is one in Chicago. There is one in the Philippines, third tallest building there, etc..

How about casinos? What happened to Trump Casino & Hotel in Gary, Indiana? Spotlight 29 Casino. Trump Taj Mahal in Atlantic City.

3:22 What?

3:32 Should American tax payers get a tax credit for govenement being shut down? I know it's a good way to save money, maybe no need for incresing debt ceiling if long enough? Longest shutdown, depending ob who you're asking.

3:20 Angela cooked something while i was writing here, she handed me a plate, a brown kid passed with his head down posing hungry (maybe), he didn't look poorly dressed like me or malnourishied and had a thick well cut hair in his head. How come they know that very moment when to pass?

I went earlier outside for the poops and a number of people (about 5 or more) got in my way intentionally, obvious only to me, have not time to describe the whole story.

9:57 Got reasons to believe upstairs moved and live a couple of Japanese people, he being a peformer, writer and director and she a dancer based in London. Here there are performing together in Paris.


10:00 3 years ago i wrote everything i knew about NuScale. Honestely after i gathered the info and wrote that post i believed that project could not be serious, given the names involved on the Romanian side and was critical about the location and the design. Today new news emerged and i saw things evolved and how have to re-read everything and write another post.

One thing Romanians need to know is these guys are not American, this is an unproven, untested, minimalist desgin nobody want on their territory, not talking so close to Bucharest.

I believe Ceuașescu chose that location for the only nuclear power plant in Romania advised by the military so it could not be hit or sabotaged during a war, without contaminating the whole Black Sea, possibly the Mediteranean.

What do they mean non-functional, i write in it every day and can access it from the other google account where i'm not signed into blogger.

1:40 PM I think i got an idea who is upstairs and what they did last night, pretending it was me there. Got to go, i think they are still there. We'll deal with the above later.

1:42 We both got sciatic problems, with pain in the articulation and numbness of the left foot and leg, the only difference is me on the left side and Angela on the right (and more severe). Just figured it might be from how the air circulates in the car, with ample spaces between the door and chair on left side of the driver and right of the passenger and we did drive a lot last summer, with AC on and sitting there for hours.

9:55 The microwave oven's ceramic coating started to peel off inside. So i decided to buy a new microwave. I wanted to choose a brand one because the 700 watts one was a no brand bought at Walmart for 50 bucks. So i chose a brand that came on forums as reliable.

It came today and i plugged it in. But when i measured, the amount of leaking radiation was ten times the amount of the one i had. The reason is the door is a bit bent, and it does not close by 1 mm in two opposite corners. I tried to unbent it, it didn't work. In the meantime i got "beamed" (a joke between me and Angela) which means i got exposed to enough radiation to feel pain while measuring the leakage (and she did not feel anything).

So i plan to try and adjust the hinges or even remove the door and fix it like i did years ago with the current one cause i am tired returning stuff at Amazon.

Actually the cuurent one i got at Walmart was better, i took home 2 more and they were worse. 

10:24 Got some aluminum self adhesive, but it would take 4 layers to make 0.1 mm. Thinking on buying some of this to stick on the frame, to make the door close tighter but don't know the thickness.

Got pain in the chin area, calves, right hip (where i was exposed to air flow in the car).

Drove to the ocean and back, had problems at the 76 gas station here at the corner, story later.

10:32 I think this one could work. Kinda expensive though and would need adhesive.
