Boboteaza (Epiphany) - in Orthodox tradition

-
Image
  (Boboteaza) Epiphany is a celebration of all Christians. The way it is celebrated differs greatly from one area to another. In the tradition of the Eastern Church, January 6, on which the event is celebrated, is considered, folklore, as the coldest day of the year. There is talk of the "frost of Epiphany". That's why, but also being related to water, I also baptize John the Baptist, the celebration includes many rituals related to water. Among them, swimming in frozen waters is a test of endurance undertaken by the most resistant and fanatical believers. Such traditions are pre-Christian, but have been adopted by Christians, often officially. In Romania, priests throw a wooden cross into flowing waters, and some parishioners jump into the water to retrieve it and bring it to shore. (However, the custom is practiced only in a few localities. Commonly, the priest immerses the cross in containers of water and thus performs the ritual.) There are many variations of such cus...

Huge demonstrations in several European countries

-

 Democracy is in danger in many European countries. The rise of the extreme right, subsidized, according to many indications, by the Russian Federation, endangers most states in the region. Some of these have already been victims of "hostile takeovers", and the population is fighting in the streets for the return to democracy and the European path, both in European Union member countries and in European Union candidate countries. The moment is critical for the preservation of democracy and for the imposition of a climate of peace, in which international aggression, such as that of Russia in Ukraine, should be condemned and stopped. The population of all countries of the world (and first of all the people of all European countries, who are the main target of Russian propaganda) must take a stand.  Indeed, in all these countries there are serious and serious problems, and the old political class has often disappointed in the efficient management of economic problems and especia...

Great ghost cities of the world (top 10)

  video: Largest abandoned cities in the world TOP 10 1. Bodie (United States of America, California) . It is probably the most famous ghost town (it even has a Facebook page). Shortly after it was built, the city reached a population of 10,000 inhabitants, in 1880, and was gradually abandoned due to numerous fires. 2. Hashima Island (Japan) . Between 1887 and 1974, the island represented a coal mine and at the same time the most populated place on earth, hosting over 13,000 people per square kilometer. The decline of the island occurred due to the discovery of another fuel that replaced coal, oil. The mine was closed and, overnight, the inhabitants left it to dry, leaving behind all their goods to rot. It is currently forbidden to approach the island, for safety reasons. 3. Pripyat (Ukraine) . Built in 1970 for employees of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, the city of 50,000 inhabitants was abandoned after the 1986 explosion. 4. Sanzhi Bridge City (Taiwan). Located in northern ...

Once upon a time, advertisements could argue with each other

-
Image
 Today there are advertising regulations that prohibit many things that were allowed in the old days. Anyway, there were years when creatives (and car brands) could "argue" with each other through humorous advertisements. Those times were in 2007. The "dispute" took place in the pages of numerous newspapers and magazines, where advertising was bought. BMW, Audi, Subaru and Bentley participated (or got into the conversation themselves).

Naruto by Masashi Kishimito

-
Image
  Art or trend? The manga phenomenon has been modernized and the authors of this Japanese drawing style, computerized or computer-assisted, enjoy a fame that beats that of all painters, all Nobel prize winners and poets, living or classic, in the world. The name Masashi Kishimito still doesn't mean much in Romania. Maybe we are not modern enough because here manga has not caught on or hasn't caught on yet. This is why Masashi is less known than Mircea Dinescu and his main work, the Naruto series, less well-known than "Left Wing". The central character of the series that is making waves all over the world is Naruto Uzumaki, a hyperactive teenager who always wants to prove his qualities to those around him. He is a young ninja whose goal is to be recognized as a community leader. An anime (cybernetized animation film) was also released on this manga series (static drawings published in specialized magazines). Here are excerpts:

The Green Ray seen in California (NASA image)

-
Image
  Let's delve into the fascinating phenomenon of the green ray, both from a scientific perspective and its captivating role in literature, particularly in Jules Verne's novel, Le Rayon vert. The Green Ray: Physics Explained The green ray, also known as the "green flash," is a rare optical phenomenon that can occur at sunrise or sunset. It's not a single ray, but rather a brief flash of green light that appears just as the last sliver of the sun disappears below the horizon or as the first sliver appears above it. Here's a breakdown of the physics involved: Atmospheric Refraction: The Earth's atmosphere acts like a prism, bending or refracting light. Different colors of light bend at different angles, with blue light bending more and red light bending less. This is why we see rainbows. Scattering: The atmosphere also scatters light, particularly blue light, which is why the sky is blue. Atmospheric Layers: The atmosphere is not uniform in density. It's ...

Online advertising

 The world still uses the predefined formats that prevailed in the early days of the Internet, when pages were mostly read on a desktop/laptop. Leaderboard, skyscraper, wide skyscraper, etc. But most users use mobile phones today. Those who want to serve static ads in image format have a problem if they want to display the same image on both desktop and mobile: none of the formats fit except square ones. Instead, add-on platforms have become more specialized, using codes to determine the user's screen size and serve the ad accordingly. However, what do you do when the user resizes? very large

Symmetries (photos from the B-Cube series)

-
Image
  Author: N.  Ï l ï e „The B-Cube photo series began as a test of a tablet app. The result was beyond expectations. It was extraordinary how architectural symmetry can be visually complemented with elements of optical symmetry to include within it (or extend it with) natural elements and primordial principles – such as sky and earth. The need for symmetry is or is not an aesthetic value. (More precisely, there are architectural aesthetics that rightly – and with spectacular results – deny the desire for symmetry). However, as a value or just a derivative of some aesthetic values, symmetry is, for us humans, a cosmic force.” Arta grafica In the many writings devoted to symmetry before it went out of fashion, it was considered, following Plato, an ingredient of beauty and harmony. Perhaps this was the mistake for which, after modernism, symmetry was considered boring and was gradually abandoned. In reality, it is not an ingredient of anything. Symmetry (like asymmetry and antisy...

Egyptian art was the first to define female beauty as an artistic theme. THE MODERN PERIOD OF CRANACH A Boucher The Three Graces - Lucas Cranach the Elder An element of pre-Christian mythology, the Three Graces were a fashionable theme during the Renaissance. Cranach's depiction emphasizes sensual, supple lines with soft lines. Muses have small breasts, unshaven pubes, and sexless hair. Boucher's paintings shift the emphasis from form to color in defining the feminine ideal. Reddened cheeks, a sign of delicacy, but also of health, are a novelty introduced by roccoco. (The motif will also be taken up by the Romantics and will survive in standar...
