1 Mai La mare
Related to country: Romania


1 Mai la Mare. Planul miilor de tineri care asteapta cu nerabdare sa-si petreaca un weekend pe litoral, in Costinesti, Mamaia sau Vama Veche. Tu ce faci de 1 Mai?

 

Mamaia is a resort on the Romanian Black Sea shore, considered to be Romania's most popular resort. It is situated immediately north-east of Constanţa. Mamaia has almost no full time residents, being populated mostly during the summer.

Mamaia is 8 km (5 miles) in length and only 300 m (328 yards) in width, being a strip of land between the Black Sea and Lake Siutghiol.

Through major developments throughout the past couple of years, Mamaia has transformed itself into a major summer destination of Europe

The beach season is at its best between mid May and late September, when average daytime temperatures range between 25 to 30 degrees Celsius (78 to 86 degrees Fahrenheit). The water stays warm until late autumn/fall.

Hotels range from mid-end to exclusive 4 and 5 stars hotels and private clubs.

Internet Threats

De curand am citi in Financial Times despre problemele pe care le au foarte multe organizatii din cauza hackerilor. Foarte multe retele cu informatii confidentiale risca sa fie accesate de diferiti hackeri. Problema cu aceasta noua forma de delict este ca organizatiile nu sunt inca pregatite pentru a fi aparate contra abuzurilor. De asemenea, odata ce informatiile confidentiale au fost accesate, este dificil sa afli cum si de unde au fost accesate. Scandalul Wikileaks a fost in atentia presei in ultima perioada.

Acum un nou scandal a aparut dupa ce Piata Nasdaq a afirmat ca retea de informatii de pe siteul organizatiei a fost compromisa. Aceastea continea diferite documente confidentiale ale firmelor listate. Nasdaq sustine ca informatiile ce au fost accesate nu au fost folosite in nici un scop de echipa de hackeri si ca tranzactiile nu au fost afectate in nici un fel de acest incident. O ancheta a fost deschisa pt a se afla cinea pus la cale acest plan.

Religious Freedom
Translations available in: English (original) | German

27 October is International Religious Freedom Day, in commemoration of the execution of the Boston Martyrs for their religious convictions 1658-1661.The U.S. proclaims 16 January Religious Freedom Day.

 

Did you knew about this? This is not a well known holiday but I think it is as important as all the others.

 My dear TIG friends,what is you religion? have you been born into it , or is it one of your choice? I have a not so usual religious background, my mum being christian and my father being jewish. The jewish law says children should take the religion of their mother.

 

But recently I took a trip to Israel and fel in love with judaism, so that makes me proud that I am half jewish. Still, I believe that I should go on with the religion I was born in, no matter how much others may look right to me.

Summer Internships

Like all the other second year students studying for a business related degree, I started filling in application forms for summer internships. It is a longand boring( for me ) process,but I hope it will have a good outcome.

 

I applied to some consultancy firms and also to some banks. I also did some numerical , logical and verbal reasoning tests in order to prove my skills. Now I am waiting for the results and I am quite excited for the outcome.

 

The applications take a long time to complete if you want to get them right. Apart from the typical cover letter and the CV, you might be asked questions like:

 

  • tell me about a situation when you had to deal with stress
  • tell me about a situation in which you worked in a team
  • tell me what positionsof responsability you held
  • tell me what attracted to the programme
  • tell mewhat differenciates us from our compettitors

and so on. Pretty basic questions, but i do find them a bit difficult because I always avoid taking about myself.

 

Have you had to go though a procces like this? How did it go? What was the outcome? I am going to start a discussion board on this topic, as I would like to hear your thoughts.

 

And I will keep you posted with the answers I get back!

Sustainable Development
Translations available in: English (original) | German

Sustainable development. We hear so often about this issue. It's the thing all the important companies brag about. But how can we measure it? Exept for some regulations across the world, some differing from country to another, it is difficult to really say which companies care about the enviroment when producing.

The EU sustainable development strategy is trying to deal with this issues:

  • Climate change and clean energy
  • Sustainable transport
  • Sustainable consumption and production
  • Conservation and management of natural resources
  • Public health
  • Social inclusion, demography and migration
  • Global poverty

I personaly believe that the firms talking about their sustainable operations are only marketing strategies,less effort being put into actually taking care of the enviromnent and of the people.

 

It is true that some of these firms have departments where people are hired to deal with this problems, but the reality is that these enterprises are not so many.
